Chapter 337 The First Lady's Transformation
"The first lady has gone in!" the second lady shouted angrily, "Minzhen, get out of my way!"
Minzhen acted as if she hadn't heard anything, and she called a pair of guards to drive the people away.
The second wife was very angry when she returned to the room, but fortunately her son broke in, so if anything really happened, they would be the first to know.
The third prince broke into the Khan's tent and quickly rushed to the bedside. He looked at his unconscious father Khan with a worried look on his face.
"Where's the witch doctor? Why is there no one here?"
He turned to Minzhen and shouted, "Hurry up and call all the witch doctors!"
Minzhen lowered her head and said, "The Khan has ordered that no one is allowed to check on him until he wakes up! Third Prince, please return immediately!"
The Third Prince had finally come in, so of course he couldn't return empty-handed. However, he didn't know any medical skills, so he immediately said, "Doctor Ming, please ask Doctor Ming to come. He has superb medical skills, and my father will definitely be fine!"
"Third Prince!" Minzhen's voice rose. "Are you going to openly disobey the Great Khan's orders?!"
Under normal circumstances, the third prince would still respect the other party, but at this time his father Khan was unconscious, and how could a single subordinate of his dare to yell at him!
"Come here! Hold Minzhen down for me. How dare you delay my father's treatment? Who knows what evil intentions you have!"
Minzhen really didn't expect that the third prince's men were hiding around the king's tent. More than ten people rushed out in an instant and surrounded him.
If we resist stubbornly, there may even be bloodshed.
Minzhen was very helpless. If the Great Khan handed the future of the royal court to such a person, the future would be worrying.
Hu Yanmeng, who had been closing his eyes, couldn't help but breathe faster.
It is true that he is sick, but more importantly, he wants to use this opportunity to lure out some people with ulterior motives.
Ever since the eldest prince suddenly passed away, undercurrents have been surging in the royal court, with various forces constantly engaged in small-scale struggles, especially the friction between the princes, which has become increasingly serious.
And if it weren't for Doctor Ming's carefulness, the third child would probably have been killed as well.
“Ahem!”
Hu Yanmeng pretended to wake up slowly.
The eldest lady noticed it immediately and hurried forward to help him up. She was very worried and said, "Great Khan, should we call Doctor Ming?"
"Father Khan!" The third prince came forward in surprise, feeling relieved. As long as nothing happened in the next year or two, everything would be fine.
"Great Khan!" Minzhen also bowed respectfully, and then wanted to help the other party take the medicine, but the third prince snatched it away, "I'll do it!"
Looking at the eager Third Prince, Hu Yanmeng felt relieved, but thinking of the other party's behavior just now, his plan was directly disrupted.
His face drooped. "Go back to this Khan and reflect on your mistakes. Without my order, you are not allowed to step out of the tent!"
The third prince felt aggrieved. He was clearly worried about his father, the Khan, but in the end he was scolded. After returning to his residence, when his mother asked him, he couldn't help but complain: "My father just doesn't like me! He must have other plans."
The second wife was from the Hu Yan clan and felt that once the eldest prince died, her son would have the best chance.
But now it turns out that the Great Khan may actually have other ideas.
"My son, don't worry!" The Second Lady said calmly, her voice steady, "There is no other candidate for the position of the future Great Khan of the Royal Court except you!"
If anyone dared to stand in his way, the eldest prince would be their fate.
Turning his gaze back to the royal tent, Hu Yanmeng pushed the eldest lady's arm away and said, "You should go back too!"
The eldest lady suddenly grabbed his arm, her eyes red. "The Khan has always been immune to all diseases. I thought it would take a long time... But when I heard the news of your illness, I realized that we are both old."
Hu Yanmeng paused, and his thoughts turned to his own age.
Yes, we are all old.
I don’t know how many years I can live.
"Khan, Aqi passed away so suddenly. I hope you can take good care of yourself, okay?"
The eldest lady's expression was genuine, her eyes full of sincerity, as if the other person was her world, and if it collapsed, she herself would not be able to survive.
Perhaps thinking of the ups and downs they had experienced together for decades, Hu Yanmeng's tone suddenly softened: "Go back. I will take good care of myself."
The eldest lady shook her head and said, "You are usually very busy. Why don't you leave it to the third brother and take care of your health?"
When it came to power, Hu Yanmeng sobered up instantly, his eyes alert: "Did the Third Brother come looking for you?"
The eldest lady lowered her eyes and sighed after a long while, "No, you're overthinking it. I just think that the third brother has the support of many Huyan people, and he's not young anymore. It's time for him to share the burden with the Khan."
"Hmph!" Hu Yanmeng snorted coldly, "I'm not too old to move! Go back and tell those people to behave themselves, or they'll be the ones to lose their heads!"
The eldest lady was embarrassed: "I am just a woman, how can they listen to me!"
"Min-jin!"
"I'm here!"
Hu Yanmeng knew very well that if he allowed those people to continue making trouble, it would definitely cause even greater trouble.
At this time, they need someone to put pressure on them.
My body has not yet fully recovered, so why not...
"Stay with the Madam these few days. If you have any questions, you can discuss them with her."
He knew the eldest lady's abilities, that she was smart and courageous, but he was not afraid that she would overstep her authority.
After all, I will be fine after a few days of rest.
Minzhen responded: "Yes, I understand."
The eldest lady was also very shocked, and even more so, she felt incredible.
The power that you couldn’t even ask for before, you can now get it just by saying a few soft words?
Could this be the reason why Second Madam Hu Yanlan is favored?
The eldest lady seemed to have opened the door to a new world.
So in the following days, she sent people to deliver nourishing soup every few days, and personally delivered food every day. All the food had been checked and there was no problem, and she fed it to Hu Yanmeng mouthful by mouthful.
Hu Yanmeng might have been reminded of the gentle eldest lady by his past, and he would order people to personally send the eldest lady back every day when they met, and rewards were indispensable.
This change, coupled with the Great Khan's order, has led to the increasing status of the Grand Lady in the royal court. However, in contrast, some people's plans have failed and they have come up with other ideas.
That day, the second wife followed the example of the first wife and personally led people to the Great Khan's tent while the first wife was still there.
After hearing the news, the eldest lady stood up slowly, put on her clothes, and sat aside waiting.
Ah Yue was puzzled: "Madam, aren't we going over there?"
The eldest lady looked calm, looked at Doctor Ming beside her, and smiled: "It should be today, right?"
Zhu Mingqing nodded slightly: "Right away."
It takes time for the medicine to take effect. She and the eldest lady took the medicine separately, and only when they were taken together could the maximum effect be achieved.
Calculating the time, it's probably less than half a day...
"Madam!"
Minzhen suddenly came hurriedly, sweating profusely. When she saw Zhu Mingqing, her eyes lit up: "Doctor Ming is here too. Come with me to the king's tent!"
The eldest lady frowned: "Minzhen, what happened?"
Minzhen said anxiously, "It's too late, Madam, Doctor Ming, let's go quickly and talk on the way."
It turned out that when the Second Lady was feeding the Great Khan the medicinal soup, the Great Khan suddenly vomited blood and soon fainted.
