"I didn't." Qu Wenzhao denied it insincerely.
She smiled helplessly, what a weird kid.
Hearing footsteps outside, Qu Wenzhao quickly hid behind the screen.
The door opened and Changsun Wuque walked in.
"Li'er, can we start?"
"Okay!" Qu Li gestured for him to lie on the couch.
Modern hypnosis is accompanied by soothing music, allowing people to slowly enter a hypnotic state in a relaxed and quiet environment.
After all, this is ancient times, so she can only ask Xiao Qi, who is good at music, for help.
As soon as Changsun Wuque lay down, Xiao Qi's flute music sounded.
The soothing music relaxes the mind, and coupled with Qu Li's magnetic voice, it guides Changsun Wuque slowly into a hypnotic state.
As the memories sealed deep inside slowly emerged, his brows slowly furrowed.
Qu Li continued to guide him while observing his expression.
Qu Wenzhao's hand covering his mouth was shaking, and his eyes were slowly turning red.
He had resented him for so long, yet he had been trapped in a place unknown to him for more than ten years.
More than a decade of loneliness, the yearning for the distant and distant love, the helplessness of being unable to escape the predicament...
He didn't know how Changsun Wuque endured it.
If Qu Li had not insisted on jumping off the Black Wind Cliff to find him, he might have been trapped in that underwater palace for the rest of his life.
A whimpering sound came from behind the screen, and Qu Li looked up.
Hearing the suppressed sobs, Changsun Wuque suddenly became excited.
Qu Li thought "not good" and hurriedly woke up Changsun Wuque.
Changsun Wuque had a splitting headache and his face was very pale.
He glanced at Qu Li and said tiredly, "I just seemed to have had a particularly long dream."
Qu Li poured him a cup of tea and at the same time, quietly poured the spiritual spring water into it.
After drinking a cup of tea, Changsun Wuque's face finally regained some color.
He heard sobbing and looked at Qu Li with suspicion.
"It's Wen Zhao."
Changsun Wuque's back was tense as he rushed behind the screen.
The boy's eyes were red and his breathing was disordered.
The father and son looked at each other from a distance of several meters.
At this moment, the thorn that had been stuck deep in Qu Wenzhao's heart was finally pulled out.
Qu Li thought that now that the misunderstanding between father and son had been resolved, they would definitely have a lot to talk about, so he walked out and gave them space.
When she found Xiao Qi, she thanked him with a smile.
"Ms. Qu, please don't be so polite to me! After all, you and Ruo Wei are family."
"By the way, Bai Zhonghe hasn't been bothering Ruo Wei and the others recently, right?"
"rest assured!"
Qu Li actually has many ways to easily get rid of Bai Zhonghe.
However, Bai Zhonghe has a close relationship with the high priest and is also a spy of Xiling. So she wants to play the long game and see if she can follow Bai Zhonghe's lead to catch the escaped members of the high priest's party.
"Eighth Prince!"
As the two were chatting, Xiao Qi's guard hurried forward with a bad look on his face. He looked at Qu Li warily.
Xiao Qi frowned, his eyes full of displeasure.
"If you have anything, tell me quickly."
"The Emperor..."
Xiao Qi's heart suddenly jumped, "What happened to my father?"
"She just fainted. The imperial physician has rushed over, and even the Empress Dowager has hurried back to the palace."
Xiao Qi's lips formed a line as he heard Qu Li say, "Eighth Prince, please come to the palace quickly!"
"Ms. Qu, can you..."
Qu Li politely refused: "I am not the royal daughter-in-law now, and I cannot enter the palace without an imperial decree!"
Xiao Qi also felt that he was too abrupt, and hurriedly said: "I am abrupt, then I will take my leave first."
Qu Li nodded.
Xiao Qi hurried into the palace and met Xiao Xian, who was also rushing in, at the palace gate.
"Seventh Brother, Father should be alright, right?"
"I heard from Eunuch Fu that my father has been taking the elixir of immortality recently." Xiao Xian's face was cold.
He didn't know whether emperors since ancient times, once they sat on the throne, would wish to sit there for the rest of their lives, and would be reluctant even to pass the throne to their sons.
Xiao Qi was surprised: "Are you serious?"
"Go in and guard it first."
The atmosphere in the side hall of the imperial study was extremely solemn.
The Empress Dowager had a stern expression on her face, staring at the side hall without blinking.
After hearing the report, she turned her head to look at Xiao Xian and Xiao Qi who were walking together.
"Don't worry, Grandmother. Father is the true dragon emperor, and everything will be fine." Xiao Xian comforted the Empress Dowager.
"I have advised the emperor many times, where in the world is there an elixir of immortality? But the emperor just won't listen." The empress dowager was sad.
Xiao Xian didn't respond, but just frowned and looked towards the side hall.
The door of the side hall slowly opened, and Imperial Physician Tang walked out first.
The Empress Dowager, supported by Nanny Gong, hurriedly stood up and asked, "Imperial Physician Tang, how is the Emperor?"
"Empress Dowager, the Emperor..."
Seeing that Imperial Physician Tang seemed hesitant to speak, the Empress Dowager guessed that Emperor Kang's condition must be very serious.
She thought of Qu Li and immediately said to Eunuch Fu, "Go to Wenzhao Courtyard quickly and call Qu Li over."
Her illness was so serious that many imperial doctors were helpless except Qu Li.
In the eyes of the Empress Dowager, Qu Li is the greatest doctor of the time.
"I'll go right away." Eunuch Fu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and ran out in two steps.
Upon hearing the imperial decree, Qu Li hurried into the palace without delay.
On the way, she heard that Kangdi had been looking for the elixir of life, and she couldn't help but sigh.
Eunuch Fu had been in the palace for so many years that he had become a shrewd person. When he caught sight of Qu Li's frown, his heart skipped a beat.
"Miss Qu, the emperor will be fine, right?"
Qu Li collected his chaotic thoughts and asked, "Eunuch Fu, what do you think?"
Throughout the ages, the so-called Taoist elixirs of immortality have all contained excessive amounts of heavy metals. If taken for a long time, the toxins cannot be metabolized and problems will arise in the body sooner or later.
"this……"
Eunuch Fu concluded his words.
"I'll go check on the emperor in a bit."
Since Qu Li is here, he must save the patient if he can. This is his duty as a doctor.
Eunuch Fu said "Hey" and led Qu Li to the imperial study.
All the imperial doctors looked embarrassed.
They had been arguing for quite a while, but each of them was right.
When they saw Qu Li coming, they all stopped and looked at her eagerly.
"Why are you all looking at me like that?" Qu Li asked with a frown.
"Miss Qu, the emperor was imprisoned by the deposed crown prince before, and his dragon body has been damaged. This time, he took so many pills at once. I'm afraid..." Imperial Physician Tang hesitated to speak.
"I'll go in and take a look first. Don't worry, everyone." Qu Li quickly glanced at the pulse case, feeling confused.
The Imperial Physician would take Emperor Kangxi's pulse every day. Emperor Kangxi had been taking the elixir of immortality for a long time, so his pulse must be abnormal. Why was there no record of this in the Imperial Physician's pulse chart?
