Chapter 656 If you stand on the wrong side, you may not have a good ending
"Jiang Wan, do you know what you are talking about?"
The Queen didn't expect Jiang Wan to speak so bluntly. Did she know what this meant?
“Of course I know, but the Fourth Prince’s temperament is not as gentle as he appears.
If you look at the current situation of the Fourth Prince's wife's mother's family, you can see something of it."
Jiang Wan curled her lips, "My Queen, I have a piece of advice for you.
No matter who becomes emperor, you are the empress dowager and your daughters are princesses.
But if you stand on the wrong side, you may not get a good ending."
She is not a good person, but she is very good at doing things that make the Fourth Prince unhappy.
The Queen's expression changed, and she subconsciously thought of the Fourth Prince's wife's maternal family.
In order to please the emperor, the fourth prince personally reported the maternal family of the fourth prince's wife.
Now her mother's family has difficulty gaining a foothold in Kyoto.
This is also the reason why the Fourth Prince promised Jiang Wan that once he became emperor, he would definitely not keep the Fourth Prince's wife.
Seeing the queen standing there in a daze, as if lost in deep thought, Jiang Wan left with brisk steps.
Everyone in this palace has his own thoughts, but Jiuzhou is more comfortable here.
Fortunately, she ran fast, and soon the emperor's bedroom was occupied by princes and ministers who came to inquire about the news.
"Miss, the emperor got angry, and the fourth prince was scolded for being unfilial. No one got anything good."
After staying in the palace for a few days, Qiu Yan used his expertise and now had a source of intelligence.
"He asked for it."
Jiang Wan sneered, and the princes all felt that the emperor would not live long, so they kept making small moves.
The dog emperor is not stupid, so how could he not see through their little thoughts?
Make a fuss, it’s better to make a huge fuss, so that they can fish in troubled waters.
Jiang Wan knew that she could not escape unscathed, but she did not expect that the Queen Mother would summon her so soon.
She roughly guessed what the Queen Mother was thinking, and walked slowly to her palace.
"Her Majesty the Queen Mother."
Jiang Wan bowed slightly, being so polite and considerate that there was nothing wrong with her.
The Queen Mother could only offer him a seat with a stern face, "Sit down."
"Thank you, Queen Mother, for your consideration."
Jiang Wan sat far away opposite the empress dowager, which made the empress dowager feel depressed.
But Jiang Wan was an expert doctor and had Song Jiuyuan to protect her, so she couldn't kill them.
The Queen Mother could only humble herself and said, "You don't have to be so reserved in front of me. You saved the Emperor, and everyone is grateful to you."
Jiang Wan: ...
Having said this, just ask yourself, are you willing to do so?
The Queen Mother then said: "I summoned you here to ask about the Emperor's health. He..."
After all, he is her own son, the empress dowager still feels distressed.
"Empress Dowager, the Emperor has instructed that we not tell anyone about his health condition."
Jiang Wan is not stupid, so she naturally wouldn't reveal these things.
It seems that the princes failed in their attempts, so the empress dowager took action.
Unfortunately, how long the emperor can live is not something they can decide.
"I am his mother!"
The Queen Mother was a little angry, "He is my flesh and blood. Can I really hope that he will not be well?"
Maybe?
Jiang Wan was just complaining in her heart. After all, the Queen Mother hoped that the second prince born by her niece would ascend to a high position.
"Empress Dowager, this is the Emperor's order, and I cannot disobey."
Jiang Wan refused to listen, and the empress dowager was so angry that her heart was throbbing. The senior palace maid behind her was busy pressing her head.
"Your Highness, please don't be angry. If you get angry and make yourself sick, the Emperor will be distressed."
"What is he feeling sad about?"
The Queen Mother had tears in her eyes, "Now he only has eyes for the child born by that vixen of the Xiao family.
If he wasn't so partial, I would have given up long ago. Why would I have to do this thankless task?"
Jiang Wan twitched her lips speechlessly, watching the Queen Mother directing and acting out the show all by herself.
Seeing that Jiang Wan was unmoved, the Queen Mother felt a little tired, "Forget it, forget it, I am old.
I don’t care about these things. You are a good doctor, so please take a look at me.”
"yes."
Jiang Wan agreed halfheartedly, then took the patient's pulse and wrote out a few prescriptions for recuperation.
"Your Majesty, please consult the imperial physician at the Imperial Hospital to check the prescription before taking any medicine."
Jiang Wan didn't want to take the blame, so she was very cautious every time so that the Queen Mother wouldn't find it easy to blame.
In the end, she could only wave her hand and let Jiang Wan leave.
On the way, Qiu Yan lowered her voice and said, “The emperor is quite sad.
Not only the princes and princesses he gave birth to were also concerned about when he would die.
Even his mother, who gave birth to him, was calculating these things. "
"Qiu Yan."
Jiang Wan sighed, "The Queen Mother is not without affection for the Emperor.
It’s just that the royal family is cold and indifferent. In the face of power, everything else is just icing on the cake.”
Perhaps they all thought that the emperor would eventually die, so they made the most of his death.
When the two passed by Xiao Zhaoyi's palace, they faintly heard the sound of arguing coming from inside.
"Let me out, I want to see the Emperor!"
"Zhaoyi, stop worrying. The Empress is now attending to her illness. Do you still think you are the glorious imperial concubine you once were?"
“…”
There is no shortage of people in the palace who flatter the powerful and look down on the weak. Jiang Wan sighed a little, then left this depressing place.
"The women in this palace are all quite pitiful."
Qiu Yan muttered a few words, but Jiang Wan did not reply to her. Once you enter the palace, it is like entering a deep sea, and wealth and glory are not always accompanied by good things.
She really didn't want to see the resentful faces of those ladies, so she simply hid away to find some peace and quiet.
Apart from treating the emperor every day, she rarely went out.
Until this day, the emperor felt better and said to Jiang Wan excitedly:
"My people have found the dragon head grass you asked people to find last time. Can you take a look and see if it is this one?"
There was a jade box on the table, and the emperor's face was full of anticipation.
"Look, girl."
Jiang Wan was quite surprised. It seemed that the Dog Emperor's people were quite capable.
She raised her hand to open the jade box, and after seeing what was inside, her eyes flashed with a strong light.
"It is indeed a dragon head grass."
"That's good."
The emperor was very happy. "Once I have collected all the herbs, you can make the resurrection pill for me."
As he was speaking, the secret guard appeared in front of Jiang Wan and took the jade box away.
This is because he is worried about Jiang Wan.
Jiang Wan was not angry either, she smiled and agreed, "Your Majesty is a blessed person.
I will go back and study the prescription now."
"Can."
The emperor was eager to survive, so he naturally would not stop Jiang Wan.
Jiang Wan coveted the dragon head grass. After nightfall, while everyone was asleep, Jiang Wan sneaked into the emperor's private treasury.
Jiang Wan has been treating the emperor every day these days, and it is not in vain.
She is determined to get this dragon head grass.
But the palace is different from the outside world, she needs to be more careful.
He simply used his special powers to quickly enter the private vault. Looking at the dazzling array of things in the vault, Jiang Wan's eyes glowed green.
The Dog Emperor is quite resourceful. Jiang Wan had emptied all his treasures once when he was in exile, but I didn’t expect that he had collected so many treasures so quickly.
The dog emperor probably didn't expect that even though he moved his private vault to another place, he was still discovered by Jiang Wan.
But this time, Jiang Wan was not in a hurry to see these treasures, but looked for the dragon head grass first.
