She felt that since An Qingran could not be conquered by her, keeping her would be a nuisance.
It’s better to kill with a borrowed knife.
Even the imperial physician had no way to cure Queen Yun's illness. How could a miracle happen at such a young age? The last time might have been just a coincidence, so she made this suggestion.
The emperor knew An Qingran and what had happened, but he couldn't think of any solution An Qingran could come up with. If he relied on a teenager, he would be laughed at if the news got out.
He was even more afraid that she would have a counterproductive effect and cause trouble again. In his heart, Queen Yun had survived for so many years, so there must be a miracle that could happen.
Concubine Shu didn't know what he was thinking, so she continued, "Your Majesty, I think that little girl has some ability. How dare ordinary people question the imperial physician? So, why not let her enter the palace and see what she has to say?"
The emperor nodded: "Okay, you go and arrange it."
When Concubine Shu received the order, she was naturally proud. She sent people to the general's mansion and found An Qingran directly.
An Qingran was drying herbs in the yard at the time. She was a little surprised to see the maid from the palace. She greeted her. The maid looked at An Qingran and said, "Noble Concubine Shu has ordered Miss An to come to the palace to treat Queen Yun."
When An Qingran heard this, she was a little surprised. It was easy to enter the palace, but it might not be so easy to leave. However, no matter who made the order, she had no right to refuse.
An Qingran followed the nanny into the palace, alone.
Lian Jinyu and An Zhongtao were very worried but there was nothing they could do. It was an honor for their daughter to be trusted by the emperor. But everyone knew that there was no room for error. If she took a wrong step, the consequences would be unimaginable.
An Qingran sat in the carriage, feeling uneasy. She had thought about asking her cousin to save Queen Yun, but she had too many concerns. She had never examined her personally and didn't know what her condition was like. Now that she was allowed to enter the palace, she was actually a little looking forward to it. She hoped that the imperial doctors were incompetent and had delayed the Queen's condition for so many years.
If there was a chance, she would certainly not give up on saving the queen.
She brought all the silver needles at home. What she had been studying recently happened to be the influence of qi and blood, which should be related to Queen Yun's illness. She hoped that this time a miracle would happen just like the one that saved her mother and brother.
An Qingran was sitting in the sedan chair, feeling a little excited. She had wanted to save the queen before, but she didn't dare to mention it abruptly. Now she had such an opportunity, but she was alert about the fact that it was Concubine Shu who came to deliver the message.
Soon, the sedan chair went straight into the harem. As soon as she got off the sedan chair, she saw Concubine Shu, who was standing in the yard in gorgeous clothes, looking at the koi in the pond, wondering what she was thinking.
An Qingran got off the sedan chair: "Your humble servant greets the Imperial Concubine..."
Hearing this, Concubine Shu turned around slowly with a smile on her face: "You are here... This time the Emperor has appointed you to diagnose the Empress's pulse, you must not hide anything."
"Your Highness, you are joking. If I had any such thoughts, I would be guilty of a thousand deaths. I am just afraid that I don't have the ability and would delay the Empress. But I will report the truth to the Royal Concubine, and then I hope that the Royal Concubine will guarantee me. In fact, the Royal Concubine's recommendation now is also a trust in me..." An Qingran said with a smile.
She was very dissatisfied with what Concubine Shu had just said, and she understood why she put the blame on herself, but she hoped that the facts were different from what she thought, and that Queen Yun could still be saved.
Concubine Shu was stunned by An Qingran's wit. If she said that, if something happened to her later, she would not be able to escape the responsibility. But how could she be trapped by a few words from this little girl?
So, she smiled: "I also heard rumors that you did something sensational. As for the Queen's condition, you wait and see. I know you will find a way. The Emperor also has high hopes for you. You'd better not let us down. If that happens, I will also be blamed..."
Old fox.
An Qingran knew in her heart that it was impossible for Concubine Shu to really be on her side. Now that she was inside, she had no other choice.
Following Concubine Shu and a group of maids and palace maids to Feng Palace, they saw a group of people there as soon as they entered the yard. They were the imperial doctors. An Qingran had seen one of them before. He was the one who delivered her mother. She felt a little embarrassed and didn't say hello. She went into the house and saw the emperor was also there.
She was about to bow, but the emperor waved his hand and said, "No need to bow. Please look at the queen first."
An Qingran saw that the Queen's face was as pale as wax and her lips were white. She was lying there. When she saw her coming, she smiled weakly. An Qingran's nose was sore. She was like a completely different person compared to her birthday. It was really heartbreaking.
"Empress..." An Qingran wanted to say something, but when she opened her mouth, she found that she couldn't find the right words at this moment.
Fortunately, the queen smiled and said, "Now that you are here, you can check for me and see how long I can live, so that the emperor can prepare early..."
"Stop talking nonsense." Emperor Yunqi said from the side.
As soon as An Qingran took the Queen's pulse, she was shocked. She had never seen anyone's pulse like this, intermittent, floating and sinking, and sometimes even undetectable. Looking at the expression on her face, Queen Yun knew that, in fact, if those imperial doctors had a solution, why would they have called her over.
Besides, she knows best what her body is like.
The more An Qingran examined the patient, the more frightened she became. She had not expected that Queen Yun's body was so weak. Her internal organs had all failed. Now the only one who could save her was probably a god, not a doctor.
The fact that she is still alive is a miracle.
An Qingran knew that there were experts among the imperial doctors, who were the reason why Queen Yun was kept alive until today. At that time, she was still wondering if her health was damaged by mediocre doctors, or if someone in the palace was harming her. There must be someone who harmed her, but that was in the past. Now her health no longer needed anyone to help her.
According to her calculations, Queen Yun would not live for more than ten days or half a month.
Seeing that she hadn't said anything, Queen Yun sighed, "Child, just tell the truth. Nothing will happen."
"Yes, our hope lies in you." Yun Qidi, who was standing beside him, held great hope.
And Concubine Shu said: "Can you cure it? You must have a way, right?"
An Qingran wanted to tell the truth, but the emperor spoke up: "Don't be afraid, we won't ask you anymore, just treat it first, and don't go home these few days..."
An Qingran didn't say anything in the end, but Concubine Shu smiled when she heard it. It was unclear whether she was happy for Queen Yun or for An Qingran to stay.
