"Your Majesty, the child has been in the mother's womb for too long and is prone to suffocation. If the blood can be cleared with golden needles in time, there is still a chance of saving him. The little prince is lucky and blessed." Zhao Zihang answered neither humbly nor arrogantly.
Emperor Jing of Wei said again: "Go in and see Concubine Yun."
"I obey your order." Zhao Zihang did not dare to delay and went in immediately.
Concubine Yun was in a critical condition and almost died. Zhao Zihang gave her a few injections and the bleeding stopped quickly. He then asked the midwife to give Concubine Yun some ginseng soup, but Concubine Yun was already unconscious and the ginseng soup could not be taken in.
Zhao Zihang frowned: "Empress Yun, if you still want to live, drink this ginseng soup."
Seeking help from her father, Concubine Yun tried hard to swallow the ginseng soup that was sent to her mouth. She finally drank half a bowl of it. Her breathing also became much stronger. It seemed that she was out of danger for the time being.
Zhao Zihang breathed a sigh of relief, then wrote down a prescription and handed it to Xi Que: "Go to the Imperial Hospital to get the medicine according to this prescription, three times a day."
"Yes." Magpie trotted all the way to the Imperial Hospital.
Acupuncture is not an easy task. After giving acupuncture to two people in a row, Zhao Zihang had a layer of sweat on his back. When he came out of the inner hall to see Emperor Jing of Wei again, his steps were a little unsteady.
Seeing Zhao Zihang about to kneel, Emperor Jing of Wei stepped forward and supported him: "Doctor Zhao, you don't have to kneel. You have performed a great service tonight."
"As an imperial physician, saving lives is my duty, and it is not considered a great achievement."
Seeing that Zhao Zihang did not take credit for himself, Emperor Jing of Wei was even more satisfied with him: "I remember that you are the grandson of Zhao Yuanshou?"
"yes."
"What's your name?"
"Your humble servant Zhao Zihang."
"Reward!" Emperor Jing of Wei was very pleased and would not be stingy with his reward. Moreover, after seeing Zhao Zihang's superb medical skills, Emperor Jing of Wei would definitely rely on him more in the future. After all, not everyone can have such a miraculous healing power.
Deng Hailuan, who was kneeling beside her, looked ashen. He looked at the Queen Mother for help, but she looked away. This action made Deng Hailuan realize that he had been abandoned.
Emperor Jing of Wei had already intended to demote Deng Hailuan, and he kept him only for the sake of Concubine An Yun's fetus, but he didn't expect that he would be of no use at all. Since that's the case, he should abdicate and let someone more capable do the job.
"Deng Hailuan is the director of the Imperial Hospital. First, during the hunt in Yanshan, he failed to identify those drug addicts, causing everyone to fall into danger. Now, he is trying to help Concubine Yun with her pregnancy, but he cannot save Concubine Yun and her child. He is not up to the task and will be removed from his position as director."
Hearing this, Deng Hailuan collapsed to the ground.
Emperor Jing of Wei did not even bother to look at him. "Zhao Zihang, the grandson of the head of the Imperial Hospital, recognized the poisonous insects in the medicine man's body while hunting in Yanshan Mountain, and notified people to rescue him in time, which was a great achievement in protecting the emperor. Today, he saved the little prince and Concubine Yun, which was a great achievement. He was promoted to the chief judge of the Imperial Hospital and rewarded with 100 taels of gold."
"I bow down to thank you for your great grace." Zhao Zihang knelt down to express his gratitude.
Emperor Jing of Wei looked at the inner palace and said: "The son of Concubine Yun has made great contributions. I will promote her to the rank of Imperial Concubine. Let her rest assured and take care of herself."
As he spoke, Emperor Jing of Wei looked at Concubine Shu who had been standing beside him. "Concubine Shu has made great contributions in managing the harem during this period, so she is promoted to Noble Concubine. During the period when Noble Concubine Yun is recuperating, Noble Concubine Shu will take care of the harem affairs."
"I obey your command." Concubine Shu was not very happy in her heart. She knew that Emperor Jing of Wei promoted her position simply because he did not want Concubine Yun to dominate the harem.
After punishing and rewarding, Emperor Jing of Wei was also tired: "Since there is nothing left, let's all go back and rest early."
After Emperor Jing of Wei passed away, the Queen Mother also stood up and prepared to leave. She looked at the calm Concubine Shu with cold eyes. She did not expect that this woman's status would be getting higher and higher. "Concubine Shu, a person's luck in life is predetermined. You have gained power here, but you will lose something in other places."
"Thank you for your reminder, Queen Mother. I will keep it in mind."
Seeing that she was so stubborn, the Queen Mother turned away.
At this moment, the maid from Concubine Shu's palace came over in a hurry: "Your Majesty, the Fifth Prince has come out!"
