Chapter 501: Treatment (Update 1)
Chu Qiyuan frowned and nodded frankly: "Not bad."
He already had a guess in his mind, but there was insufficient evidence at the moment.
Ye Chutang curled his lips and said, "Thanks to you, otherwise... even if I came, His Majesty might not wake up."
Chu Qiyuan felt that these words contained a lot of information and he was both happy and surprised.
"You mean, you are sure you can save His Majesty?"
Ye Chutang sighed inwardly.
"You don't have to be too optimistic. Although your Majesty's life can be saved, after this series of ordeals, your Majesty's health is almost exhausted. In the future..."
She didn't say the rest, but Chu Qiyuan understood immediately.
His heart, which had just relaxed, sank again.
After a while, he stroked his beard and let out a long sigh.
"Forget it. Fate has already been determined, so why worry too much? Besides, in the current situation, it is already extremely difficult to wake His Majesty up."
In fact, he also knew that Emperor Mu Wu’s body could not last for too long.
Outsiders only thought that Emperor Mu Wu was a man of both civil and military talents, wise and intelligent, but he was old after all.
The hidden illness he had sustained during his youth had gradually revealed itself, threatening his life.
In addition, there are countless sharp claws extending from the darkness all around. Emperor Mu Wu is still a mortal after all, and this day will always come.
"Your Majesty had just issued an order to exile the Second Prince Xiao Chengxuan, but before he was even kicked out of the palace, His Majesty collapsed." Chu Qiyuan recalled the chaotic scene just now and looked embarrassed. "What should we do with this mess?"
Ye Chutang nodded.
She was not surprised by Emperor Mu Wu's decision.
And what Chu Qiyuan was worried about was not groundless.
It was neither too early nor too late, but Emperor Mu Wu fell into a coma at this very moment, and the political situation was bound to be in chaos.
——Apart from anything else, the selection of the crown prince is the biggest point of controversy!
The second prince was exiled, the third prince was in a coma, and only the disabled fourth prince was left.
How is the country in danger?
The fight between the various parties is about to break out, and it will surely be an extremely fierce melee.
Ye Chutang pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked, "You just said that Xiao Chengxuan hasn't left the palace yet?"
But she didn't see anyone just now.
Chu Qiyuan nodded: "Yes. The incident happened suddenly, and everyone came here to protect your majesty's life. Xiao Chengxuan will be detained for the time being--"
Before he finished speaking, a sharp female voice suddenly came from outside.
"How dare you let Ye Chutang in? If anything happens to His Majesty, you will be held responsible!"
Ye Chutang lowered his eyelids slightly, his expression was calm, and his hands continued to move, as if he didn't hear the noise.
Chu Qiyuan immediately recognized who this person was.
He frowned and turned back: "Concubine Ru!? Why is she here suddenly!?"
…
At the same time, outside the palace.
Like a royal concubine, oh no, at this time she had been demoted to a talented lady, with messy hair, red eyes, and traces of tears on her face.
He is no different from a madman.
Originally, she was going to be taken away, but halfway through, she heard that Ye Chutang had arrived, and she started crying and making a fuss, and actually turned back.
At this moment, looking at the tightly closed door and the heavily guarded area in front of her, the hatred in her heart reached its peak.
Everyone's eyes were focused on her, with different expressions.
Although she had been banished to the cold palace, she had been a favorite concubine for many years and her influence was still there.
Chen Songshi stepped forward and stopped her.
"Your Majesty is in critical condition. No one is allowed to interrupt his treatment."
Ru Guifei suddenly sneered and raised her voice.
"Treat? Just like she treated King Lie? Treated him to death?!"
