The imperial physicians came forward one by one, took the patient's pulse, and then stood aside with their heads bowed.
Finally, they gathered together, reached a conclusion, and came to report.
The Empress Dowager spoke first: "How is it? How is the Emperor?"
That look of anxiety and worry perfectly portrays the image of a good grandmother who loves and worries about her grandchildren.
However, the imperial doctors who had stayed in the deep palace for many years and had seen too many dirty things all knew that the relationship between the Empress Dowager and the Emperor as grandparents and grandchildren was not that serious.
However, they would not be stupid enough to expose this superficial peace.
"To the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, and the Empress, the Emperor fainted from shock, but he's not seriously injured. However, His Majesty has always been frail, and I'm afraid he's been seriously injured. He needs to be carefully cared for in the future."
What they didn’t say was that the emperor’s health was deteriorating day by day, and he might not even live for another year!
But they dare not say such things casually.
The Grand Empress Dowager nodded and said, "You must always be vigilant and take care of the Emperor's health."
“Here!”
A group of imperial physicians responded and wrote out prescriptions before retreating and going back to let the medicine boy prepare the medicine.
After these people had left, the Empress Dowager looked at Lipin, who had already turned pale with fear, and sneered:
"I've been in this palace for so many years, but this is the first time I've met someone as capable as you. Well, it's getting late, and I'm tired. Queen Mother, you should handle the things here! Guo'er, come on, take me back."
"Yes, Grandma."
The little girl nodded obediently, then used her little hands to help the Empress Dowager stand up.
It was said that Xin Guoguo was asked to go, but in fact, when the sedan chair arrived at the Jiaofang Palace, the Empress Dowager asked Xin Guoguo to go back.
Xin Guoguo got off the sedan chair and knelt to salute.
Only after the Empress Dowager's sedan chair left did she turn around and return to her palace, staying there until she could leave.
The original plot has changed.
The appearance of Concubine Li frightened Xiao Se and also triggered the poison hidden in Xiao Se's body.
However, in this case, they probably won't increase Xiao Se's dosage.
After all, the current Xiao Se, if he takes any more medicine, he will probably die!
I'm afraid there will be no peace in this palace for a period of time afterwards.
She didn't want to get involved in those dirty things, and there was no need to.
*
Ever since Xiao Se was frightened unconscious that day, a bloody storm broke out in the palace starting from the next day.
This gust of wind spread from the palace to outside the palace, and it finally stopped after a full month.
Xin Guoguo stayed in her uterus and announced to the outside world that she had a miscarriage.
With the Empress Dowager in charge, no one dared to cause trouble for her.
It allowed her to live in extraordinary peace amidst this chaos.
During this month, Xiao Se was bedridden and didn't even attend the morning court.
The only people who could see him every day were the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager's wife, and his personal eunuch Yuan Man.
In the previous dynasty, there were a few ministers who clamored to see the emperor, but with the Empress Dowager's iron fist, she only killed a few of the loudest clamorers, and no one dared to step forward.
At the same time, the person Qingyan secretly contacted quietly took office.
In the entire Daliang court, among the hundreds of officials above the fifth rank, the replacement of these officials did not attract anyone's attention.
During this month, Xin Guoguo only went to give Xiao Se a pill on the second night after Xiao Se fell into a coma, and she never saw Xiao Se again.
In the following days, Xin Guoguo stayed at home even less.
If she had the Empress Dowager, she wouldn't even have to pay her respects to the two giants.
Concubine Li offended the emperor that day, and she was sentenced to death by beating by the empress dowager that night. Even her family was implicated, with the men exiled and the women reduced to slavery.
With this lesson learned, the entire harem was peaceful in the following days.
The New Year passed in the blink of an eye.
This year is the coldest year since the founding of Daliang.
The emperor was bedridden and unable to get up.
The queen is pregnant and not feeling well, so it is inconvenient for her to go out.
The Grand Empress Dowager and the Queen Mother were in a bad mood.
Therefore, there was not even a palace banquet this year.
After the New Year, the atmosphere in the entire capital became lively again.
But everyone felt inexplicably panicked, always feeling that something was going to happen.
Spring passes and autumn comes.
More and more cotton was wrapped around Xin Guoguo's belly.
Fortunately, the cotton was not heavy, otherwise, with her ten-year-old body, she would have been exhausted to death!
After finally getting through the summer, Xin Guoguo wiped his forehead with lingering fear.
Her spiritual energy is recovering slowly now, so she is inevitably frugal when using it.
This summer, she carried a large amount of cotton with her body and felt as if she was being roasted by fire every day.
Fortunately, on the night of the twelfth day of the first month of autumn, the daughter of the Shen family finally got going.
When Xin Guoguo got the news, the entire Jiaofang Palace immediately took action.
The ones who delivered Xin Guoguo were the Empress Dowager and her close confidants.
Xin Guoguo was lying on the bed at this moment, being directed and shouted by Nanny Qiu.
Basins of clean water were brought in.
Then it is mixed with chicken blood prepared in advance and served out.
While Xing Guoguo was shouting, she couldn't help but share with Xiaomaotuanzi:
"These people's acting is really good! If they were placed in the entertainment industry of the future, they would definitely be candidates for Best Actress!"
The little fur ball ate the melon seeds that he had borrowed from his host's points and nodded his head to comment:
[Yeah! Yes, yes! It's just that we didn't bring a camera. Otherwise, we could record this and post it online when we get to the modern world. Maybe it could even attract some attention!]
