Chapter 521 Witchcraft Storm
Murong Li waved his hand and said, "Don't do those empty things. Go and show it to my mother."
The Lord of Medicine King Valley heard the anxiety in Murong Li's tone. He jumped up and walked a few steps to Yun Fei's bed. He first looked at her face, then his face became heavy, and he immediately took Yun Fei's pulse.
Murong Li and Su Yue both looked at the Medicine King Valley Master nervously.
"how?"
After the Medicine King Valley Master finished taking the pulse, Murong Li and Su Yue asked anxiously.
The Medicine King Valley Master had a bad look on his face. He waved to the two of them, and the three of them left the bedroom and sat down in the side hall.
"What happened to my queen mother?"
Murong Li asked impatiently.
The Medicine King Valley Master signaled him not to be anxious, and then he said, "The Imperial Concubine was struck by a sorcery."
"witchcraft?"
Murong Li and Su Yue looked at each other and asked in surprise. They had only heard of witchcraft but had never seen what it was.
The Medicine King Valley Master nodded and confirmed, "Yes, the Royal Concubine's condition is indeed a symptom of witchcraft. There is a small black spot between her eyebrows. This black spot is not caused by poisoning, but by witchcraft. People who have never seen witchcraft cannot recognize it. When this black spot grows to the size of a grain of rice, it means the Royal Concubine will die.
It only takes three days for the black spot to grow to the size of a grain of rice. In other words, the witchcraft on the imperial concubine must be lifted within these three days.
But I don't understand witchcraft. The reason I could recognize it was because my master saw it once many years ago when he was treating difficult and complicated patients. That was the only time my master failed to save the patient.
"Only three days."
Murong Li felt choked up. They didn't even know what a witch was. How could they break the witchcraft? And the time was so short. What should they do?
Murong Li showed an anxious look for the first time. He had no idea at all.
He asked the Medicine King Valley Master, "Then do you know what kind of person we should find to break this spell?"
You have to have a direction before you can find someone.
The Medicine King Valley Master said in a deep voice, "This kind of witchcraft can be solved by seeking help from a Taoist priest, or someone who has attained great enlightenment. They should be able to break it."
Witchcraft is an evil magic that is contrary to Taoism, one is good and the other is evil.
"Yu'er, you stay in the palace and look after Mother. I will go and invite Master Qingyuan immediately."
The first person Murong Li thought of was Qingyuan.
Su Yue was thinking about witchcraft. She felt that the world was becoming more and more mysterious. Not only were there martial arts masters with superb skills, but there were also cultivators and witchcraft.
When she heard Murong Li calling her, she came back to her senses and shook her head, saying, "Qingyuan is so far away, it will take more than three days to get there. You should quickly post the imperial edict to find the miracle doctor. Also, have our people search around the capital to see if there are any such extraordinary people.
By the way, the abbot of Xiangguo Temple can invite him here."
After hearing what Su Yue said, Murong Li gradually calmed down. He nodded and said, "Okay, Yue'er, stay here and I'll do it right away."
After saying this, he took the Medicine King Valley Master out of the palace and reported the news to the emperor, asking him to issue an imperial edict.
After leaving the palace, he arranged for his people to look for extraordinary people, and he personally went to Xiangguo Temple to invite the abbot.
Xiangguo Temple is a royal temple, so he would definitely not refuse the invitation to be the abbot. Moreover, he heard from Qingyuan that the abbot was his senior brother.
At this time in the imperial study.
"Your Majesty, this is bad."
The Ninth Eunuch ran into the imperial study in a panic.
"What's all the fuss about?"
The emperor glared at the Ninth Eunuch. The older he got, the less able this old man was to control his emotions.
The Ninth Eunuch entered the Imperial Study and took two deep breaths before reporting, "Your Majesty, something has happened to the Imperial Noble Consort. Prince Li just sent word that she is seriously ill. Your Majesty, please quickly post an imperial edict and seek a miracle doctor to treat her."
"What? The Imperial Concubine is seriously ill? When did this happen? Why didn't anyone come to report it to me?"
The emperor also found it very sudden, and he said in disbelief.
The Ninth Eunuch shook his head. "Prince Li didn't say when it happened, but he said it was very serious. Your Majesty, please go to Xihe Palace to see the Imperial Noble Consort. I'll go to the Imperial Hospital and have the director post the imperial edict."
The Imperial Medical Service has the authority to issue an imperial decree seeking a doctor.
"Okay, let Xiao Guizi go with me."
The emperor stood up and was about to leave without saying a word.
Ninth Eunuch nodded and then called Xiao Guizi over.
Xiao Guizi is a eunuch about twenty years old. They had just found him to serve by their side. This eunuch was mature and steady, and the emperor planned to train him and give him to Murong Li.
Being an eunuch around the emperor is very important.
So the emperor and the young noble son rushed to Xihe Palace, while the ninth eunuch went to the Imperial Hospital in person.
After an incense stick of time, the emperor arrived at Xihe Palace panting.
When the palace maids, eunuchs, and maids in Xihe Palace saw that the emperor had arrived, they immediately knelt down and greeted him: "Welcome to the emperor, we pay our respects to the emperor. May the emperor be well and safe."
The emperor waved to them and said as he walked, "Everyone, get up."
Then he stepped into Xihe Palace and went straight to Concubine Yun's bedroom, where he saw Su Yue was also there.
"Fourth daughter-in-law, what happened to your mother?"
"Father, why are you here? My mother is suspected of being under a witchcraft spell. Murong Li went to Xiangguo Temple to ask the abbot to come and confirm whether it is a witchcraft spell and see if it can be cured." Su Yue said while bowing.
"witchcraft?"
When the emperor heard the word "witchcraft", he was stunned. He hurried to the bed and was shocked when he saw Yun Fei's current appearance. He then sat on the edge of the boat and gently touched Yun Fei's cheek. His face was gloomy and tears were overflowing from his eyes.
Although he is heartless, he still cares about the women in the harem.
Concubine Yun, who was noble and beautiful a few days ago, has become like this today. She is dying, skinny and bony, like an old woman who is about to die. The emperor couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, and tears welled up in his eyes.
Then he angrily asked, "Your mother has become like this, and no one came to report it?"
Su Yue said, "My mother didn't let anyone tell us. We only found out about it when Nanny Chen was waiting for Murong Li at the door that afternoon."
The emperor knew that Concubine Yun and the fourth son were not on good terms, and he couldn't blame the fourth son and his son. He sighed, "Your mother is always like this. She takes everything on herself and never tells me."
After the emperor finished speaking, he gave Concubine Yun a deep look, then stood up, left the bedroom, and came to the main hall. He called Xiao Guizi over and said, "Go tell the commander of the imperial guards to immediately bring people to investigate the palace for me to find out who cast a spell on the Imperial Concubine. Tell him to investigate carefully and make sure the news doesn't leak out. We're investigating witchcraft and theft. Let him make up his own story about what was lost."
As a member of the royal family, the emperor had never seen witchcraft, but he had heard of it. Witchcraft is very evil and makes people shudder when they hear about it, so the royal family is most wary of witchcraft.
