don't take me for fun

Chapter 26 It's Not Me

This is less than the effort of a cup of tea, Zhao Guifei's time is like a year.

Physician Jing is in his old age, but his legs and feet are very strong, so he came soon.

"The old minister pays his respects to the emperor." As soon as Doctor Jing entered the room, he put down the medicine box he was carrying and knelt down to salute.

"Get up." Li Lingjiu waved to Imperial Physician Jing, and only after Jing Imperial Physician got up did he say, "Concubine Zhao is not feeling well, go and see what is wrong."

"I obey the order." After finishing his speech, Imperial Physician Jing got up and went to Concubine Zhao's bed.The servant girl moved the chair and put it away, and Doctor Jing sat down, took a handkerchief pad from the medicine box, put it on the pulse point of Concubine Zhao Guifei's right hand, and began to feel the pulse.

Physician Jing took the pulse, his brows became more and more tight, and he looked up, only to find Concubine Zhao Guifei staring at the quilt with dull eyes, her face desperate.

Jing Taiyi has practiced medicine for many years, and he has been in the palace for more than 40 years. He has never made a mistake in ailments, big or small, so when he found out that Concubine Zhao had a miscarriage and was weak, he was very surprised.Since the emperor ascended the throne, there has never been any news that any empress is happy in the palace.But Concubine Zhao's pulse is a symptom of miscarriage, and her body is extremely cold, as if caused by taking abortion pills.If Concubine Zhao is happy, she should be protected in every possible way, how could she be willing to kill her?Besides, the imperial concubine conceived a child, and only the emperor could decide whether to keep the child or not. How dare Concubine Zhao do this?

Li Lingjiu looked at Physician Jing frowning, as if unsure, took his pulse again, lost his patience, and asked directly: "What's the matter with Concubine Zhao?"

Physician Jing got up from the bed, stood beside the emperor, and said with a short body: "I... this old minister is not sure... maybe the old minister made a mistake..."

"Just say what you want." Li Lingjiu interrupted Doctor Jing's chatter.

"Back to the emperor, Lady Zhao is extremely weak. It doesn't look like a normal illness, but rather... like the result of excessive blood loss after a miscarriage. Moreover, Lady Zhao seems to have been injured in her body. If the old minister guessed correctly, Zhao The empress seems to have taken an abortion drug blindly called Hong Le by the people. The drug is extremely strong and belongs to cold, although the effect of the drug is good, but it will cause great harm to the body."

"That is to say, Concubine Zhao was pregnant and then aborted the child, right?" the emperor asked.

Physician Jing nodded and said, "That's right, that's right."

Li Lingjiu sighed deeply, and said to Physician Jing, "Go down. Concubine Zhao is just seriously ill, and she has neither pregnancy nor miscarriage, remember?"

"The old minister understands. Then... do you need to prescribe some tonic prescriptions for Concubine Zhao?" Imperial Physician Jing looked up at the emperor slightly.

Li Lingjiu nodded, and waved her hand to indicate that Imperial Physician Jing could leave.

The room fell into silence again, Concubine Zhao still stared at the quilt, lifeless.

"Is there anything else you want to say?" Li Lingjiu broke the silence.

Li Lingjiu was very depressed, why didn't Zhao Guifei argue, find reasons, or find ways to excuse herself?Such a desperate expression of acknowledging everything is almost the same as that Concubine Zhao Gui who ridiculed Yan Meiren.

Concubine Zhao finally stopped looking at the bed, and turned her face to Li Lingjiu, with a wry smile on her lips, "What else do I need to say?"

Li Lingjiu thought for a while and said, "For example, who is that man?"

Concubine Zhao's mouth cracked even more, she just stared at Li Lingjiu with a smile, then turned her head slightly, as if recalling something, "He? He is my sweetheart. He is very handsome and interesting, and he will tell me Stories, taught me horseback riding and archery, and many other things. We grew up together, and he came to the capital with me. If it weren't for the big gap in family background, I would probably marry him."

"Why don't you elope?"

Concubine Zhao looked at Li Lingjiu, "Elope? Hehe, I am the only daughter in the entire Zhao family. If I don't enter the palace, who will enter the palace? I thought that if we were not together, we would slowly forget about it and live our own lives. However, when I saw him again, I realized that without him by my side in this life, I would have no fun at all. Your Majesty, have you ever loved anyone?"

Li Lingjiu froze, his brother's face appeared in his mind, with a gentle smile on that face, his mouth and eyes gradually blurred and deformed, and in the end, it turned into Li San's face.Startled, Li Lingjiu quickly shook her head to drive away the influence in her mind.

Concubine Zhao smiled knowingly, and said softly: "So you don't. So you don't understand the kind of feeling that you would rather risk your life to be with him. As long as you see him, all the unwillingness and grievances will disappear, and everything will change." Feeling happy."

Concubine Zhao's eyes were full of smiles, and she recalled those good times, "So, if there is a next life, I really hope that he and I can be born in a well-matched family, even if it is very poor. During the day, he goes to farm and collect firewood, and I wash and weave at home. , have dinner together at night. Sleep together in the same bed openly, and then have a few more children. Slowly watch the children grow up, grow old together, and..."

Zhao Guifei's voice became smaller and smaller, and slowly disappeared.

Li Lingjiu was immersed in the scenes designed by Concubine Zhao Gui, and she also had some wishes to hold hands with someone to grow old together.

When she regained her senses and looked at Concubine Zhao Gui, she realized that there was a lot of blood oozing from the mattress and quilt.Li Lingjiu was startled, and hurried forward to lift the quilt.

Concubine Zhao's abdomen was pierced with a knife, and red blood kept escaping from the knife edge, staining the whole clothes red.

"Li Lingjiu, what are you doing?!" She was pushed away forcefully.

Li San was startled by the bright red in front of his eyes, Concubine Zhao held the knife inserted into her abdomen with both hands, blood gurgling out.Hastily stretched out his finger to poke under Concubine Zhao's nose, there was still a faint breath.

"Come quickly, where have they all gone?" Li San shouted in panic.

Several court ladies hurried into the room, but they were all petrified by the sight in front of them.

"Get up and call the doctor!" Li San scolded.

The maid who reacted hurriedly ran out.

Li San had no experience in treating people, so he didn't dare to mess with the knife on Concubine Zhao's lower abdomen, for fear of accidentally making the situation worse.Ben turned to Li Lingjiu with anger, but found that his eyes were panicked, and he looked at Li San with a helpless expression, like a child who had gotten into a catastrophe.Suddenly my heart softened, and I felt a little distressed.Walking in front of Li Lingjiu, he stretched out his hand and pulled his head onto his own shoulder to comfort him.

"I didn't do it." Li Lingjiu's voice trembled.

"Well, I know."

"I didn't want her to die."

"Well, I know."

Li San felt his shoulders were wet, so he could only comfort Li Lingjiu by stroking Li Lingjiu's back. He was just a big kid.

The person invited by the maid is still Imperial Physician Jing.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw the emperor leaning on the empress's shoulders, and Concubine Zhao's bed was covered in blood.

Hearing the voice, Li San tilted his head and signaled Imperial Physician Jing to check on Concubine Zhao's injury. He patted Li Lingjiu and said, "It will be fine. The imperial physician is here. Be obedient and sit down first."

Pushing Li Lingjiu onto the chair, she wanted to go to the bedside to take a look, but was held tightly.Li San had no choice but to stay by Li Lingjiu's side, letting him hug his waist while keeping his eyes on the situation of the imperial physician.

Physician Jing inspected the wound, probed his nose, then looked at Concubine Zhao's eyes, turned around and shook his head at Li San, "Concubine Zhao had a miscarriage and was weak, and this knife just happened to be inserted into the wound. Inner wound, hey..."

Li San felt the hand holding his waist shrink suddenly, and hugged himself even more tightly.

There was a faint sobbing sound in the room. Li San looked over and looked at Concubine Zhao's personal maid, so he said to her: "You are Concubine Zhao's personal maid, right? You must know about your master's affairs, and now the result It may be even more of a relief for her. You first deal with your master's affairs in the palace, and when you're done, you can leave the palace or go to other concubines if you want."

"Well, servant girl understands." The maid replied sobbing.

"Just understand, go find Xiao Quanzi, and let him handle the affairs here."

"En." The servant girl exited the room.

Li San looked at Ling Jiu and lamented, he lost control of his emotions, it seemed that he had to deal with it himself.
