Chapter 192 The Empress's Dissociation 1

Concubine Yun's words were like a muffled firecracker lit in the palace.

It's so shocking and unbelievable.

Everyone looked at her in astonishment and surprise, and Concubine Ying even said that she was talking nonsense.

"The Empress is the Empress, the mother of the country! Why would she risk her life just to ask you to frame the Concubine?"

Xiao Jingheng, who was sitting in the first seat, had a gloomy face and said nothing.

The Queen Mother couldn't help but ask, "Please tell me clearly, what is going on?"

Concubine Yun cried and said:

"I don't know what the Queen is thinking. She just gave me the Evian incense and asked me to use it every day. She also said that when her heart disease relapses in the future, she will ask me to testify that this thing was given to me by the Concubine Chen."

The Concubine Chen poked her temples and said angrily, "Don't you have a brain? She asked you to frame me, so you framed me?"

"I don't want to either! But what can I do?" Concubine Yun sobbed with trembling shoulders, "The Queen said that if I don't do it, she will force me to drink the safflower drink and I will never get pregnant in this life! She is the Empress, and I have been under her tyranny for a long time. My life has been really hard..."

As she spoke, she rolled up her sleeves, revealing her slender arms.

Her arms were very white, but they were covered with new wounds on top of old ones, which was shocking to see.

"I am a lowly person with little influence, and I am not favored by the emperor. Since my grandfather's death, my family's status in the previous dynasty has plummeted. If I don't listen to the queen, I'm afraid that she will beat me to death one day, and no one will care!"

She was right.

The reason why she was able to climb to the position of concubine in the past was because her grandfather was a veteran of the three dynasties that founded the Qi Dynasty. He was highly regarded by the previous emperor and was also treated with courtesy and importance by Xiao Jingheng.

Later, her grandfather died, and her incompetent father made no achievements in political affairs, so the glory of her mother's family disappeared overnight.

Listening to Concubine Yun crying about her helplessness, Xiao Jingheng didn't say a word the whole time.

The Queen Mother glanced at him and saw that his face seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, which showed that he was very angry.

The Queen Mother then asked, "Since you said that all this was the Queen's threat to you, why did you keep your mouth shut just now, but now you suddenly confess everything?"

Concubine Yun said, "It's because the Queen said that she would definitely save me and keep me safe. But just now she saw me being tortured by the Emperor, but she didn't say a word. I was really scared! This matter was not planned by me, and I don't want to be someone else's scapegoat for nothing!"

Xiao Jingheng pondered silently.

According to Concubine Yun, the Queen should have wanted to protect her just now.

But it happened that the Queen Mother brought Yu Shengshou to examine the Queen, so the Queen took them back to the inner chamber and could not take care of Concubine Yun for a while.

Xiao Jingheng didn't feel anything just now.

But now that I think about it carefully, it is indeed strange that the Queen brought Yu Shengshou to the inner chamber.

Is she hiding something? Is that why she doesn't dare to let Yu Shengshou diagnose her pulse in front of everyone?

Concubine Chen was always hot-tempered, and she became angry immediately after hearing what Concubine Yun said.

"How can this be possible! As the mother of the nation, how could she be so vicious?"

She bowed to Xiao Jingheng and said aggrievedly: "For what happened today, please give me an explanation, Your Majesty and the Queen Mother!"

Xiao Jingheng then said in a deep voice:

"You can't just say what Concubine Yun says about this matter. After all, it's true that the Queen gave birth prematurely and had a hemorrhage. She won't use the heir to frame you."

Then he called Jiang Deshun, "Go and call the queen out. I have something to ask her."

At the same time, in the inner bedroom.

The queen was leaning against the warm seat, letting Yu Shengshou feel her pulse.

Shuang Ruo and Yan Jiude both stood by and waited.

Seeing that Yu Shengshou's expression changed when he felt his pulse, Shuang Ruo immediately took out a silver note and handed it to him.

"You, Master Yu, are very smart and you know what to say and what not to say in front of the emperor. You are a skilled doctor, but the doctors in the palace are not necessarily inferior to you, and they are not necessarily less intelligent than you. I believe that at your advanced age, you should know how to be cautious in what you say and do."

Yu Shengshou glanced at the banknote and saw that the denomination was one thousand taels of silver.

His peripheral vision caught sight of Yan Jiude standing on his right.

The guy was fiddling with a piece of thick cloth in his hand and staring at him intently.

The intention is obvious.

If Yu Shengshou did not accept Shuang Ruo's banknote at this moment, Yan Jiude would immediately take action and suffocate him to death, creating the illusion of an accident.

Even if Xiao Jingheng asked about it at that time, there were only a few of them in the inner chamber, so wouldn't it be up to them to say whatever they wanted?

In fact, when Yu Shengshou was taking the Queen's pulse, he realized that the Queen had no heart disease as soon as he put his hand on her.

And the reason why the Queen was able to perfectly disguise the illusion of having a heart disease over the years was because she had given many benefits to Chu Yuanpan in private.

The private residence of Chu Yuanpan outside the palace was one of the Queen's wishes.

Judge Chu was highly respected and had outstanding medical skills. He was responsible for the health of the emperor, empress, and queen mother.

Over the years, although other imperial doctors had come to check the empress's pulse and discovered the strangeness of her pulse,

But President Chu was the head of the Imperial Medical Bureau. He had already said that the Queen had a heart disease. So what could other doctors do even if they could diagnose the cause?

Anyone who dares to spread this matter will have no chance of survival.

When serving in the palace, whether one's medical skills are good or not is secondary.

The most important thing is to first understand the principle that it is better to have less trouble than more, and learn how to protect yourself.

Just like the Queen threatened Yu Shengshou at this moment,

At this time, Yu Shengshou could only accept the banknote and then said to the queen:

"Don't worry, Queen, I know what to do."

The Queen smiled, "Saint Yu is a skilled doctor, a miracle doctor. Don't worry, I value talent and will ensure that you will live a prosperous life."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Jiang Deshun reporting from outside:

"Empress, the Emperor is concerned about your condition. If Master Yu has finished examining your pulse, please move to the main hall to talk."

"knew."

After the queen returned to the main hall, Xiao Jingheng asked Yu Shengshou, "How is the queen's health?"

Yu Shengshou said, "The Empress suffered premature hemorrhage and even damage to her uterus. This disease is irreversible. Please forgive me for my lack of knowledge and ability and my inability to treat her."

This matter is no longer the focus of Xiao Jingheng's concern.

He almost didn't think about it, and asked again: "What about her heart disease?"

At that time, the Queen didn't know what Concubine Yun said to Xiao Jingheng when she went to the inner chamber.

She was still pretending to cry, but her eyes were fixed on Yu Shengshou.

But see,

This old man actually took out the banknote given by Shuang Ruo from his bosom, presented it to Xiao Jingheng respectfully, bowed and said:

"I cannot cure the Queen's damaged uterus, and the Queen has no heart disease, so she does not need treatment. This medical fee was just given to me by the Queen. I cannot accept it without merit. I am so frightened that I will return the medical fee to the Emperor."
