Luo Lan's words made the emperor's already pale face even more frosty.

His lips moved, his eyes slightly closed, and a deep wrinkle appeared on his forehead.

After pondering for a while, he finally spoke in a weak voice:

"Is my illness...really curable?"

Seeing that he was somewhat moved by what he said, Luo Lan glanced at Leng Yu and nodded solemnly.

"I'm not sure if I can cure it, but I can help you feel better, at least it won't be so painful."

Now she is not sure whether he has common enteritis or intestinal tumor, so she has to examine him first.

The emperor paused, then suddenly gritted his teeth and nodded.

"Okay, I know. You have to hide people before you treat them. Although I don't know where you hide them or what magic or sorcery you use, I am not afraid of anything in my current state."

At this point, he supported himself with his arms and tried to sit up. Liu Xi saw this and hurried over to help him, "Your Majesty, please go slowly."

He panted, sat up straight, and waved to Liu Xi:

"Pass on my oral order. Regardless of whether Princess Yu can cure my illness or not, she must not be punished."

Liu Xi bowed and nodded hurriedly, "I obey your order."

He raised his hand again as if remembering something.

"Draft an edict. If I pass away unexpectedly, the throne will be passed to the Fourth Prince, Leng Yu. No one is allowed to object."

Seeing this, Leng Yu hurried forward and clasped his fists, saying:

"Father, it is too early for you to issue this imperial decree."

The Emperor waved his hand as if he had suddenly realized something.

"I've been lying in bed these past few days and have figured out a lot of things. Although my four princes are not stupid, you are the only one who can make me close my eyes. Therefore, this imperial decree must be issued. Otherwise, if something unexpected happens to me, I won't be able to explain it to the ancestors of the Leng family!"

Leng Yu didn't understand why his father suddenly thought so highly of him, but in order to let Luo Lan treat him as soon as possible, he had no choice but to nod in agreement.

The Emperor drafted the imperial edict, placed his imperial seal on it, and said to Leng Yu:

"Keep this imperial edict safe and bring it out when absolutely necessary. Remember your father's words: you must accept the throne, but you must not harm your three brothers. You must also inquire about the living conditions of your two sisters from time to time. They have married far away in foreign countries, and I...I miss them so much!"

At this point, the emperor's eyes suddenly turned red, and he looked at him as if he was making arrangements for his last affairs. Luo Lan's face suddenly showed a bit of pity.

This elderly man has too many things to worry about.

Leng Yu hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted.

"Don't worry, Father. I have taken note of your words."

The emperor then nodded and looked at Luo Lan, "I leave my life to you."

After saying this, he moved again and prepared to lie down. Liu Xi hurried over to support him and help him lie down.

Seeing that he was ready, Luo Lan whispered to Liu Xi:

"Eunuch Liu, please order someone to guard outside. No one is allowed to come in until I leave."

"this……"

Liu Xi smacked his lips in embarrassment, then looked at the emperor.

The emperor frowned and nodded with difficulty, "Do as Princess Yu says."

He now looks as if he has made up his mind to die.

Liu Xi could only bow and leave the Yangxin Palace with Leng Yu.

The gate of the Yangxin Palace was closed. Luo Lan then looked at the emperor and said softly:

"You need to sleep for a while so that I can examine you. You just said that you are not sure whether this is a magical skill or a sorcery, so it is better for you not to examine it."

The emperor looked at her with deep eyes, frowned and nodded.

"I have already given myself to you. Life or death is entirely up to you!"

Luo Lan smiled softly, and she suddenly felt that she didn't really hate the emperor in front of her.

But she couldn't let the emperor discover the existence of her operating room, so all her examinations and treatments had to be performed while he was sleeping.

She first gave the emperor a dose of anesthetic, and only after watching him fall into a deep sleep did she open the operating room and move him into the operating room.

She first drew blood from the emperor to check the hemoglobin concentration, etc., so that she could preliminarily determine the type of gastroenteritis he was infected with.

His disease is related to his stomach, so he needs a colonoscopy and gastroscopy...

Outside the Yangxin Palace, Leng Yu stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the huge imperial palace, feeling indescribable.

Eunuch Liu stood to his right. Seeing that he was silent, he lowered his voice and said solemnly:

"Prince Yu, the Emperor has been deeply hurt by the princes this time. You are the only person he has in mind during his illness."

Hearing this, Leng Yu looked at Liu Xi with deep eyes, puzzled.

"Eunuch Liu, what happened while I was away?"

Hearing his question, Liu Xi sighed and slowly recounted what had happened during this period.

It turned out that the emperor's health had not improved, and it became even worse after Leng Yu went to Quancheng. During this period, Concubine Chang always took advantage of Concubine Li's absence to bring Leng Ming to him many times to show her courtesy. At first, the emperor was very happy. It was a happy thing to have his children around him.

But one day, the emperor heard Concubine Chang secretly scolding Ming'er, saying that the emperor did not have much time left, and asked him to take advantage of the emperor's good mood and mention it in front of the emperor, and to draft the decree of succession as soon as possible and write Leng Ming's name on the decree.

The emperor was furious about this and kicked out Concubine Chang and Ming'er together, and ordered them not to come to the Yangxin Palace again, otherwise he would banish Concubine Chang to the cold palace.

Concubine Li was extremely angry about this matter. She said a lot of bad things about Concubine Chang and Ming'er in front of the emperor, and bluntly said that only Xi'er was the most suitable for the throne. She hoped that the emperor would write Leng Xi's name on the decree of succession for her sake.

The emperor was also very annoyed about this. He locked Concubine Li in Li Garden and ordered that she was not allowed to enter the Yangxin Palace without an imperial decree.

Having said that, Sun Xi sighed and murmured:

"After Wu Hong's death, the capital was nearly in turmoil. Those two ladies were also very aggressive, acting as if the emperor was about to die. They did a lot of things behind the scenes, fighting each other to the death. Fortunately, General Liu returned in time. Everyone was afraid of him and didn't dare to make a big deal out of it. Otherwise, there would have been chaos!"

At this point, Liu Xi sighed and continued in a deep voice:

"The Emperor is heartbroken. He never imagined that the woman he had always doted on would covet his throne while he was still alive. He also never imagined that his son would come to him and curry favor in order to obtain his throne. So at this moment, he thought of you, Prince Yu. You are the only one who does not fight or compete. During the three years when he misunderstood you, you did not explain. In the three years since, you have not made any demands on him. He also said that among the several princes, you are the only one who is calm and steady and capable of shouldering such a great responsibility."

At this point, Liu Xi's eyes turned red, and he murmured again:

"I'm going to say this: I've served the Emperor for many years, but this is the first time I've seen him so seriously ill. It's also the first time I've felt a pity for him. Lying on his sickbed, without even a loyal person by his side, he constantly mentions the two married princesses, constantly muttering, "I don't know if I'll get to see them before I die."
