As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Xi bid farewell to Doctor Jiang. Doctor Jiang also finished writing the prescription in his hand. He picked it up and blew the ink marks on it, got up to pack his things, and ordered the medicine boy to bring the medicine box for consultation. , said in a slow voice: "It's about time, the old man should go to consult the emperor, follow this prescription to grab the herbs and take them together."

Yaotong replied: "Yes." He took the prescription and went.

"Wait a minute, Cangzhu weighs one more money, and Achyranthes knee adds two dollars more, go."

"Yes." Yaotong had no doubts about him.

Zhao Xi took another look at Jiang Yuyi.There are too many ways for drugs to kill people without anyone noticing. This prescription may only be based on warmth and nourishment, but the ingredients in it have inadvertently changed a subtle change, and the medicinal properties conflict and cause side effects. For the emperor who is about to die now Physically, it is a fatal blow.

Doctor Jiang sat there calmly, raised his head slightly and closed his eyes.

Zhao Xi said: "The servant girl will go ahead, Doctor Jiang, take your leave."

Doctor Jiang said "hmm", but was not very enthusiastic.

Zhao Xi quickly led a few imperial doctors back to the Longevity Palace. There was no major change outside the delivery room, and they all concentrated on waiting for Ji Qinghuan to give birth.

After being nervous for so long, it has come to this final touch.

"Where's the Queen Mother?" Zhao Xi asked the servant standing outside the delivery room, this person was serving the Queen Mother.

"The Empress Dowager is interrogating the group of guards who came back in the front yard, and the servants don't know the situation."

Zhao Xi nodded, indicating that he understood.He has no intention of going to inquire, the Queen Mother has a lot of means to interrogate the people behind the scenes, and besides Concubine Hui and Concubine Feng, she doesn't think about it.

Both of them have hole cards in their hands, the aristocratic family and the power in the court are similar, Concubine Hui and King Rong are in charge of the emperor's personal soldiers and inspectors.In Zhao Xi's cognition, it is equivalent to the existence of Jin Yiwei, and Concubine Feng Gui and King Ning should be the [-] imperial guards who control the palace.

However, these did not include the hole cards that were not shown. What is needed now is to stand still and wait for them to fight to the end before making a move.

Exposing their plans early will scare the snake away, fearing that they will be bitten back and will not be able to get rid of their hands, and they will become passive when it is too late.You have to wait until the time is right and the emperor swallows his last breath.

Several imperial doctors also went in and waited. If necessary, they tried decoctions, acupuncture and moxibustion in order to alleviate the princess's pain and difficulty in childbirth.

It was just labor pains at first, and the labor had not officially started yet, there were unceasing cries of pain from inside the room, and Zhao Xi waited outside until night.

The room was brightly lit. After dinner, the Empress Dowager took off her golden hairpin and went into the delivery room to accompany her in a crimson single.

Several imperial doctors also worked hard all day, and when it was time to rest, Zhao Xi sent someone to invite the imperial doctor who was on duty at night, but the person who came back reported that all the imperial doctors from the Imperial Medical Office had been called to the Xuande Hall , Said that the emperor suddenly became ill, and the situation was very serious.

"When I went, the palace servants from the imperial court came over and called everyone away. Seeing that their expressions were really serious." The servant repeatedly affirmed.

Thinking of Doctor Jiang's attitude at noon, Zhao Xi knew everything was going well.The emperor should have not only summoned the imperial physician, but also a group of cabinet ministers, princes and concubines.

The queen mother's personal maid was outside, Zhao Xi told her about it, and she went in after listening.

After a while, the door of the delivery room opened, and the Empress Dowager came out with the unpleasant smell inside.She gave Zhao Xi a sideways look, and walked towards her palace.

"Everything is in order, and the other side knows it."

Zhao Xi buried his head in sending her away.

The Empress Dowager returned to the palace and changed into plain clothes. It was too late to take a bath, and the palace servants from Xuande Palace rushed over after a while of incense.

At night, the entire Xuande Gate was lit with twice as many candles. The palace was golden, and there were palace people rushing outside. A group of imperial doctors in indigo court uniforms were waiting on the platform, and their eyes were anxious, nervous or worried. Looking at the huge purple-gold gate in front of him.

Behind them are concubines from various palaces who rushed over. The two adult princes are outside the palace and haven't arrived yet.The young princesses and princes who are still in the palace are all there, except for the sixth princess Lu Rushuang, the rest are all under ten years old, hiding beside their mother and concubine anxiously.The youngest eleven princes are still in their infancy.Concubine Feng and Concubine Hui stood at the top of the list, but Concubine Lan Gui, who had risen all the way to the highest position, was not among them.

At this time, no one noticed this, and everyone in the harem stood together nervously or numbly, whispering.The emperor was in fashion and didn't take care to protect them, so once he left, it would be fine if it fell into the hands of these two.It's just that a few concubines with children are frightened.

"What's wrong with your father?" The sixth princess was really worried about her father, who loved her dearly, and worriedly asked the chief servant who was guarding the door.

The servant is already very old, following a generation of emperors, the kind that he will probably follow when the emperor dies.He lowered his loose eyelids and looked down, deaf to the sixth princess's words.

Coupled with this attitude; the old servant's dying air made people feel the emperor's situation for no reason.Lu Rushuang's face turned pale, but she couldn't speak.

Concubine Hui took her daughter's hand, embraced her, and patted her on the back comfortingly, just like coaxing her to sleep when she was a child.

Her usual gentle and calm face was filled with forbearable sadness, and her eyes were slightly watery, as if she would cry when she lowered her head.

No matter how cold and domineering Concubine Feng is usually, she has to put on a show at this moment, showing sadness and anxiety on her face.

At this time, the door opened, and a group of imperial doctors came out with pale faces, shaking their heads in front of their colleagues waiting outside.

Some people who were about to go in were stunned for a moment.

"How is your majesty!" Concubine Feng Gui and Concubine Hui went ahead to ask, the concern on their faces did not seem to be fake.The sixth princess also grabbed the sleeve of an imperial doctor and asked about the situation.

The imperial doctors couldn't speak, and shook their heads.Qi Qi rolled up his sleeves, straightened his clothes, stepped back a few steps and knelt down facing the door of the dormitory, kowtowing his head on the ground for a long time.

These imperial doctors are all with the best medical skills. It is self-evident that they went in to treat the emperor just now, but shook their heads dejectedly after they came out.

Then several imperial doctors followed suit, and for a while there were two rows of figures kneeling outside the hall.

The Queen Mother just arrived at this time, and under the powerful coercion, the crowd who hadn't had time to make a noise fell silent for an instant, and after saluting, they timidly hid together.

The eleventh prince, who was held in his mother's arms, began to cry. The child who is not yet one year old doesn't understand anything. He eats when he is hungry, and cries when he has nothing to eat.

This occasion was really noisy, her biological mother Yun Jieyu was pale and nervously coaxing, almost all eyes were cast there.

Yun Jieyu is still young, her family background is not high, and she is only a Jieyu when she gave birth to a prince. It can be seen that she is usually weak-tempered, but now she is in a hurry, and she is so nervous that she doesn't know what to do.The child couldn't be coaxed well, and kept crying.

The more anxiously she coaxed, the louder she was. In the end, Concubine Feng Gui couldn't help casting an impatient look, "Don't you know how to coax the child when it's crying?"

"Your Majesty's redemption, Xu Shi, Xu Shi, the prince is hungry..."

"When you're hungry, give it to the nanny to feed."

"..."

Yun Jieyu didn't dare to make a sound, taking the children away at this time, maybe the emperor will summon them in the next second, she is very soft-spoken and dare not make mistakes.

Concubine Feng Gui didn't say much, she seemed more discouraged, and stopped talking to her when she turned around.If there were seemingly no complaints from the crowd, the children still didn't stop.

Yun Jieyu's eyes were filled with tears, and she even wanted to cover the child's mouth with her hand.

The queen mother rubbed her forehead, and out of pity for the child, she still stopped it: "Let the nanny hold it down and feed it."

Yun Jieyu flinched, her small voice trembling a little: "Yes."

The queen mother ordered the maid beside her to lead her to a side hall, and the scene finally quieted down.
