Chapter 3466 Extra Prince 5
After Zhou Man was sent to the room and locked up, he calmed down and thought about the emperor's pulse, but he couldn't find anything abnormal. So he began to feel sleepy and his head noddled as he sat on the chair.
She started her shift in the latter half of last night. It was already past noon, and she had experienced such a terrifying struggle for imperial power. She was really exhausted. She looked around and simply lay down on the bed to sleep.
Although the emperor's pulse was too weak to be awakened, there was indeed no sign of poisoning. Perhaps he just wanted to sleep and would be fine after a few hours of sleep.
Zhou Man went to sleep peacefully and didn't wake up until the evening. The emperor didn't wake up either. Zhou Man started to get anxious. "He wouldn't have just gone away without knowing what was going on, would he?"
Then can the injustices against her and the prince be cleared?
The court officials were also very worried and kept asking the Imperial Physician, "When will His Majesty wake up?"
Xiao Yuanzheng: "I can't guarantee that. Your Majesty has been ill for a long time and is weak. He cannot use emergency medicine."
"What about acupuncture?"
"Doctor Zhou is the best at acupuncture," Xiao Yuanzheng said. "We will use needles. Your Majesty is weak now, and I'm afraid that improper acupuncture techniques will damage His Majesty's vitality."
"So we still have to invite Zhou Ziqian out, right?" someone asked unhappily, "Apart from her, there's no one else available in the entire Imperial Hospital?"
Xiao Yuanzheng was very calm, "Every profession has its own expertise, and acupuncture is indeed what Dr. Zhou is best at."
Old Master Tang turned and said to Gu Zhong, "Please, Eunuch Gu, call me Your Majesty again."
Gu Zhong had been standing by and listening to their conversation. Upon hearing this, he bowed slightly, turned around and walked to the emperor's bedside, and whispered, "Your Majesty..."
The empress, watching the emperor, came back to her senses, reached out and nudged the emperor, calling out, "Your Majesty, Erlang..."
The person on the bed closed his eyes tightly and did not respond to her. The queen's eyes were slightly red. He held the hand of the palace maid and stood aside, letting Gu Zhong come forward.
Gu Zhong stepped forward and pushed the emperor, trying to wake him up as usual, but after calling for a long time, the emperor still did not move. He could only look back at the ministers and shake his head slightly.
The ministers sighed slightly. Old Lord Tang couldn't help but frown and asked Xiao Yuanzheng, "Is it really not poisoned?"
Xiao Yuanzheng also sighed and shook his head, "At least I can't tell from the pulse."
He paused and said, "Speaking of his understanding of poisons, Lord Zhou is even better than us."
Ministers: ...Just tell me what she is not better than you in, and what she is not good at!
In the end, it was Old Master Tang who made the decision, "Go and ask Master Zhou to come out."
No one else objected, but they urged the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice, "We must hurry and investigate. Your Majesty has been unconscious for such a long time, and his pulse is inconclusive. It must be more than that."
Xiao Yuanzheng hesitated for a moment and then said, "Actually, although I can't tell anything from the pulse, I can guess the cause of the person's coma."
He said, "The human body is complex and can be affected by countless factors. Sometimes, even sadness can cause amnesia and dementia. So, coma doesn't necessarily mean poisoning or a worsening of the disease. It could be the body sleeping in order to recover better."
The ministers expressed doubts about Xiao Yuanzheng's conclusion.
Xiao Yuanzheng knew that they would have doubts, but he did not require them to agree, because he himself was not sure.
It would be good to check.
During this investigation, the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice worked together with the Imperial Medical Office to look up all the emperor's pulse diagnosis cases from the previous five years.
This time, I really saw the problem.
So they started an in-depth investigation in the palace. A talented woman named Wu who lived in a remote courtyard in the harem accused a beautiful woman who lived in the same courtyard, saying that she had drugged the emperor five years ago.
As soon as Zhou Man came out and finished feeling the emperor's pulse, before he could say anything, an official came to take Gu Zhong and said, "Eunuch Gu, please come with us to the Ministry of Punishment."
Zhou Man was startled and looked at Gu Zhong quickly.
Gu Zhong was also startled, but he quickly calmed down, turned around and bowed deeply to the Queen, "Your Majesty, I will accompany them for a while, and His Majesty will leave his life in your hands."
Zhou Man hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Is it because of your Majesty's illness?"
The one who came was the Left Vice Minister of the Dali Temple. He looked up at Zhou Man, because the other party's official position was slightly higher than his, so he lowered his head and replied, "Yes."
But I won’t reveal more than that.
Zhou Man said, "Since this is due to His Majesty's illness, and the case is being handled jointly by the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice, then he should be taken to the Ministry of Justice or the Dali Temple. Why send him to the Ministry of Punishment?"
The Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice said nothing.
The Queen pondered for a moment and then said, "If you want to ask questions, ask them in the Dali Temple."
The Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice then agreed and ordered someone to take Gu Zhong away.
Gu Zhong breathed a sigh of relief, bowed deeply in the direction of the queen, and was taken away.
If he goes to the Dali Temple or the Ministry of Justice, he might be able to survive, but if he goes to the Ministry of Punishment, even if he is proven innocent, he will be in a disfigured state when he comes out.
Gu Zhong has lived a life of luxury for the past few decades. Although he has to serve the emperor every day, he lives a good life. How could he bear the punishment of the Ministry of Punishment?
When Gu Zhongyi was taken away, Zhou Man immediately asked the Queen, "Your Majesty, why did they arrest Master Gu?"
The Queen frowned and shook her head slightly, then stood up and said, "Your Majesty will be temporarily handed over to Lord Zhou and Dean Xiao. No one is allowed to approach Your Majesty without my order."
Zhou Man quickly responded, "Yes."
As soon as the queen left, the atmosphere became tense.
Everyone was already on edge because the emperor was in a coma, but because the emperor had been ill for a long time and the empress and ministers were there, everyone remained calm. Gu Zhongyi's capture meant that this matter was not simple.
Once the investigation begins, everyone in this room will be implicated.
Even Dean Xiao became serious and looked solemn.
He looked at Zhou Man and whispered, "Check again."
The emperor was really harmed by someone. Apart from the people who served him, the Imperial Medical Bureau was the first to bear the brunt of the consequences.
They were responsible for the emperor's health, but they had not been able to discover it. Not to mention Zhou Man, even Xiao Yuanzheng had no chance of recovery.
Zhou Man then carefully felt the emperor's pulse again, but still couldn't find any problem. He simply felt that his five internal organs were weak and his life was coming to an end. As for why he was so comatose...
Zhou Man said uncertainly: "Maybe it's the body protecting and recovering itself?"
Anyway, she really didn't show any signs of poisoning.
The two looked at each other, and finally Zhou Man paid the points to let Ke Ke scan the emperor back and forth twice. In the end, no problem was found. She took out the needle bag and let the emperor bleed a little. She quietly collected a little blood and put it in the space, asked Ke Ke to put it in the teaching room, and sent an email to Teacher Mo, asking Teacher Mo to help with the test.
In fact, she could have done the test herself in the teaching room, but she couldn't leave now and there were people all around her, so she had to ask Teacher Mo for help.
Teacher Mo didn't reply to her for a while, and she didn't know if he was busy.
