Chapter 353 Tell me the truth, how long will it take?
There is still an endless stream of people demanding Erbao's execution.
Upon hearing this, King Liang decided to go see Yun Zhao in person and demand the execution of Erbao!
At this moment, Mu Chengyan noticed something unusual.
Instead of looking for Yun Zhao, he stood at the door of the little emperor.
He stopped Doctor Li who was coming out.
"Doctor Li," Mu Chengyan asked, "how is the situation inside?"
Doctor Li wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "I adjusted the pharmacy again this morning, let's try again."
Mu Chengyan frowned slightly upon hearing this, and lowered his voice before asking, "The Empress Dowager asked me to ask you this. Last time, I remember you said that the little emperor wouldn't survive more than seven days, and that it would only be these few days at most. Now, nine days have passed, and look at this..."
Doctor Li understood the court struggles.
He lowered his head even lower. "Yes, but the condition has been progressing. We are also working hard to treat it. Perhaps the medicine has had some effect."
Upon hearing this, Mu Chengyan frowned.
"You mean... the emperor's health is getting better and recovering?"
Upon hearing this, Doctor Li shook his head frantically. "No, no, I didn't say that. The medicine may have a slight effect, or it may be a last gasp of energy. It's hard to say."
Mu Chengyan looked at Doctor Li, who was sweating profusely from fear, and said quietly, "Tell me the truth, what's going on?"
Doctor Li had a mournful look on his face. "This is the actual situation. The medicine may have had some subtle effect. Perhaps it's just a temporary improvement."
Mu Chengyan lowered his voice even more, "Then tell me the truth, how long will it take?"
Doctor Li stretched out five trembling fingers.
Mu Chengyan understood what was going on, said thank you, and went to the palace gate.
Prince Liang sat in the sedan chair, slightly lifting the curtain to reveal half of his face.
"How do you say that?"
Mu Chengyan said, "Doctor Li said he won't live more than five days."
Prince Liang sighed, "There are still so many days left. Is what this imperial physician said reliable?"
Mu Chengyan said: "He is the chief of the Imperial Hospital, so what he said is probably true."
Upon hearing this, King Liang smiled.
He is going to see Yun Zhao today.
The little emperor's physical condition determined his attitude towards Yun Zhao.
If the little emperor is in good health, Yun Zhao will still be the honorable empress dowager.
If the little emperor is in poor health, he will be the future emperor, and Yun Zhao will be his divorced wife, so he does not need to respect her too much.
Send someone to give it to Mu Chengyan later.
Isn't she just a woman?
Even if she is the empress dowager, it is still arranged by him, the future new emperor.
However, this idea quickly disappeared after King Liang saw Yun Zhao.
He hadn't seen—
Such a beautiful woman.
Unlike the coquettish woman outside, the one in front of him was dignified, with a firm and magnanimous look in her eyes. Her stunning face made King Liang unable to take his eyes off her.
He finally understood why Xie Jingmo and Mu Chengyan were so obsessed with her.
It turns out she is such a stunning beauty.
There is something fishy in Prince Liang's mind and eyes.
After being reminded twice by Fu Hai, Prince Liang knelt down with a smile and said, "Greetings to the Queen Mother."
Although he was kneeling, his eyes were straightforward and explicit. Fu Hai stood forward half an inch in anger. King Liang's face suddenly became gloomy, and he looked at Fu Hai coldly.
He sneered and said, "You little dog slave!"
Yun Zhao called out, "Fu Hai."
After Fu Hai retreated, King Liang smiled even more proudly. This young and beautiful queen mother was very sensible.
He curled his lips and bowed, and while bowing, his eyes fell on Yun Zhao's shoes.
An amused smile appeared on his lips.
Fu Hai frowned and was about to step forward to remind him, but Yun Zhao gave him a calm look.
Prince Liang stood up and looked at Yun Zhao more directly.
He had heard before that a beautiful lady had come to the palace, but he was assigned to the territory at that time, so he had no chance to meet her.
Just curious in my heart.
Now see you.
Prince Liang smiled, "The Queen Mother is stunningly beautiful, but I have never seen a beauty like you."
Yun Zhao's eyes were slightly raised.
"I am the late emperor's concubine, and you are his younger brother. According to seniority, you should respectfully address me as sister-in-law."
Upon hearing this, King Liang sneered.
With a raised eyebrow, he called Yun Zhao, "Sister-in-law."
This word "sister-in-law" is very inappropriate.
Yun Zhao was about to frown when he saw a man come in from the door and kick King Liang in the back of the leg.
"Ouch!" King Liang stomped his feet and turned around angrily, "Who... thank... Jing Mo."
Xie Jingmo crossed his arms, "Xie Jingmo, was that you who shouted?"
King Liang felt aggrieved.
Xie Jingmo had been favored since childhood, and he always felt a little inferior in his heart when he saw Xie Jingmo.
It still is today.
"Fifth Brother."
Xie Jingmo looked at him coldly and yelled, "Get out!"
King Liang pursed his lips, somewhat unwilling, but fearing Xie Jingmo, he had to give up.
He walked out, and after walking a long way, he turned around and looked at Yun Zhao.
He licked his lips, then turned and strode away.
Yun Zhao didn't take this matter to heart and asked Xie Jingmo, "How are Lieutenant General Lin's funeral arrangements going?"
Xie Jingmo said truthfully:
"Some people tried to cause trouble, but they didn't dare because I was here. I came in to ask you, tomorrow, when Lieutenant General Lin's family is buried...what are you going to do with Erbao?"
Yun Zhao's eyes darkened as he said, "We have to let Erbao go to see him one last time. When the time comes, I'll take him to see him from afar."
Deputy General Lin killed the prime minister of the time.
No matter what Yu Xiang did in his life, he was still the prime minister after all.
This incident shocked the government and the public.
There will definitely be many obstacles on the day of burial.
Xie Jingmo said, "Okay! When the time comes, let's get a few more people to protect you. I'm afraid there will be chaos that day, so I have to follow the main force all the way."
Yun Zhao felt a pang of sadness in his heart, "Yeah."
The next day.
It rains heavily.
Xie Jingmo and his group walked slowly in the rain.
More than a dozen coffins were carried by soldiers on the border in the rain.
The whimpering sound mixed with the dull sound of rain sounded bitter.
Yun Zhao stood on a high place, looking at Xie Jingmo and his generals guarding the coffin at the bottom of the mountain.
Deputy General Gao and his remnants fought fiercely.
Yun Zhao took Erbao's hand, looked down, and said to him, "Do you see that? The world is vast, and the hearts of vicious people are unpredictable. We must step firmly from the abyss toward the light, otherwise, we will be stuck in this quagmire. Erbao, today your father and uncle are buried. Let's kowtow to them."
Erbao nodded.
Yun Zhao and Erbao knelt down and kowtowed three times towards the dozen or so coffins in the rain.
The rain is getting heavier.
The fierce fighting at the foot of the mountain was fierce. Yun Zhao and Er Bao, dressed in plain white clothes, disappeared silently in the rain.
That day.
I heard that more than fifty people died at the foot of the mountain.
Corpses were everywhere.
Lieutenant General Lin and his family rest in peace.
When Deputy General Gao and Xie Jingmo returned, they were both injured.
Fu Hai watched the imperial physician bandaging them and kept gasping for breath.
Deputy General Gao remained calm and said, "That's nothing. We are all covered in wounds at the frontier."
Fu Hai felt for the first time that it was not easy for men on the battlefield.
