"Ha ha ha ha"
The emperor laughed heartily.
His biggest wish now is that his son is in good health. Even the emperor doesn't dare to hope for a biological grandson.
The retired emperor even planned to adopt a grandson from the royal family after his son's wedding and raise him while he was still alive.
Now the Queen gave the retired Emperor great hope. The Queen knew medicine and could tell if there were any food incompatibilities. She diagnosed that her son was poisoned and had been given a sterilizing drug.
It doesn’t matter whether his body is healthy or not, he is half buried in the ground anyway. The only regret is his son’s body.
"Queen, Cheng'er's body is now in your hands. As long as you cure Cheng'er, I promise you that Cheng'er will only have you as her queen for the rest of her life, and I will never take concubines into my harem. Otherwise, let me..."
"Father Emperor"
"Father Emperor"
Bei Lingyao and Emperor Kangde spoke at the same time.
"My son is unfilial and I have sworn an oath. How can I let my father do it for me?"
"Your Majesty, I don't need you..."
Emperor Kangde held Bei Lingyao's hand and said firmly and solemnly, "Whether the Empress can cure my son or not, I don't want to take concubines."
If his father had not insisted on letting him marry a queen to bring him good luck, he would not have wanted to harm others.
Over the years, he knew that his health was getting worse day by day, and no matter how much medicine he took, it was useless.
Although he longed to live, he was also prepared to die at any time.
He hoped to pass on after his father, and didn't want his father to always have to bury the young before him.
"Your Majesty and I are one and the same. I will do my best to cure you. However, my medical skills are not very good, and I need to learn more."
"There are medical books in the library. I asked Yuan Meng to move them to Kunning Palace."
The retired emperor was relieved at this time. At that time, Yang Jinzhong was just a traveling doctor. In order to recruit Yang Jinzhong for his own use, the retired emperor collected many medical books for Yang Jinzhong.
Fortunately, he kept a copy for himself and gave the copy that he had someone else copy to Yang Jinzhong.
Yang Jinzhong's medical skills also improved by leaps and bounds, surpassing all the imperial physicians in the Imperial Medical Bureau and becoming the head of the hospital.
The retired emperor did not want to doubt Yang Jinzhong, after all, the two of them knew each other from humble beginnings.
During the years of guarding the imperial mausoleum, the retired emperor did not have an easy life. He often did not have enough to eat, and even had no food. He often ran to the jungle to find food.
He had eaten leaves, tree bark, fruits, insects, and even rotten wild animal flesh.
As long as it doesn’t kill you, it’s fine.
The tomb keepers sent by Taizong didn't care about the life or death of the retired emperor at all.
The emperor lived in the jungle like this, relying only on a rusty knife he picked up to carve wooden sticks into weapons and traps, and fighting with wild beasts, with wounds of varying sizes all over his body.
Once he broke a bone and met a mountain doctor who went up the mountain to collect herbs. He was cured.
Later, the emperor was injured and waited for the mountain doctor to go up the mountain to collect herbs to treat him.
He helped the doctor collect herbs in exchange for money.
It was at this time that the gradually growing stronger emperor caught the attention of the imperial mausoleum guards.
They watched from the sidelines at first, but gradually they were touched.
Some even taught the emperor how to fight wild beasts.
Gradually, the emperor began to win them over.
The guards of the imperial mausoleum did not want to guard it for the rest of their lives. Some of them were not valued and were even marginalized, so they were sent here.
Seeing that the retired emperor was so tenacious and brave, and that he was a martial arts genius and had accurate archery skills, he also wanted to join him under the emperor's attempt to win him over.
At the age of fifteen, the emperor officially gained their support.
But if one wants to seize the throne or even rebel, this number of people is not enough.
And no money.
Finally, he expanded his power by taking the gold, silver and jewelry buried with the emperor.
The retired emperor met Yang Jinzhong when he left the imperial mausoleum to inquire about rural doctors.
It was only then that they learned that the mountain doctor was captured by a group of bandits and taken to treat the boss, but the patient died, so the bandits killed the mountain doctor.
In addition to the rural doctors, the itinerant doctor Yang Jinzhong and several other doctors were also arrested.
Only Yang Jinzhong escaped, the others all died.
After the retired emperor and Yang Jinzhong met, he did not reveal his identity.
He personally led people to the bandit's lair and killed the new leader who had killed the mountain doctor.
He also gathered bandits and formed his own force.
At that time, the retired emperor tried to win over Yang Jinzhong, but Yang Jinzhong refused, saying that his medical skills were not good enough and he wanted to go to Jizhou Prefecture to find a famous doctor to become his disciple.
The retired emperor did not try to keep him and even gave Yang Jinzhong some money for his journey.
In this way, Yang Jinzhong became an apprentice of a famous doctor in Jizhou and also sent a letter to the emperor.
The retired emperor found a medical book in the imperial mausoleum and immediately thought of Yang Jinzhong.
He had someone copy a copy and gave it to Yang Jinzhong.
Yang Jinzhong also became the most proud disciple of a famous doctor thanks to his medical books.
However, Yang Jinzhong did not want to marry the daughter of the famous doctor. When the famous doctor passed away, he left the clinic and property to his daughter and son-in-law.
Yang Jinzhong left the clinic and contacted the emperor.
At that time, the retired emperor was raising an army in rebellion and had invaded the capital.
After becoming emperor, the retired emperor brought Yang Jinzhong to the capital.
Yang Jinzhong became the imperial physician of the Imperial Medical Bureau.
With the support of the retired emperor, he became the head of the court.
But over the years, there have been the deaths of princes and princesses, the sterilizing medicine in the body of the retired emperor, and the increasingly deteriorating health of Emperor Kangde.
The emperor couldn't help but blame Yang Jinzhong.
I just feel like I don't know people well enough.
Even if Yang Jinzhong did not betray him, it proved that Yang Jinzhong's medical skills were not good enough, and his years of support were in vain.
After breakfast, Bei Lingyao and Emperor Kangde returned to Kunning Palace.
The retired emperor asked Yuan Meng to put the medical books at the bottom of several boxes, and then put the treasures in his private treasury on top.
Everyone in the palace saw a group of eunuchs carrying more than a dozen boxes of things from Ningshou Palace to Kunning Palace.
Everyone could see how much the retired emperor valued the empress.
After returning to Kunning Palace, Bei Lingyao asked Emperor Kangde to rest for a while while she met the palace maids in Kunning Palace and then sorted out her dowry.
Bei Lingyao's dowry was no longer ordinary generous.
In addition to the betrothal gifts from the palace, plus those from the Bei family and those left by the biological mother, several warehouses were full.
Today, the emperor gave more than a dozen large boxes as rewards.
The palace maids in Kunning Palace were so exhausted just organizing the dowry and storing it in the registers that they could not even stand up straight.
As soon as the news reached the Bei family, Bei Shuxian was jealous.
Li was from the Duke's Mansion, and because both her natal family and the Bei family were cautious and self-protective, she was not affected by the reign of Emperor Taizong.
She has always been arrogant and did not take the original owner seriously. However, the original owner had a large dowry, which made Li Shi somewhat uncomfortable.
But she also knew what was important and would endure it no matter how dissatisfied she was.
I just feel that this concubine's daughter won't live long in the palace, as long as she doesn't bring trouble to the Bei family.
So when Bei Shuxian was dissatisfied with the original owner's dowry, Li stopped her.
After all, the dowry given by Mr. Bei was originally prepared by Mrs. Li for Bei Shuxian.
But now it is given to a concubine's daughter.
"Has mother received any news from the palace?"
Bei Shuxian felt unwell. She didn't want to marry the dying Emperor Kangde, but when she learned that Bei Lingyao was living well in the palace and had received rewards from the Supreme Emperor, and that her generous dowry became Bei Lingyao's, Bei Shuxian felt unwell.
