Baishou loses Shaohua

In the sleeping hall of Chaohua Palace, fine silver charcoal was burning in the bronze charcoal stove with the dragon pattern, and the huge room was warm and harmonious.Emperor Chongde's most trusted doctor Song Yu had just finished his pulse diagnosis.

"Your Majesty's dragon body has improved a bit in the past few days, and it should be fine after a while."

"I see, you go down."

"My minister retire."

When Yu Chenglie saw that Song Yuyi had retreated, he stepped forward and said: "Father, there are still many memorials that I have not yet reviewed, please allow my son to resign."

"Diligence is a good thing, but you must also take care of your health." Emperor Chongde waved his hand, "Go."

"Yes, Erchen retire."

Yu Chenglie left the gate of Chaohua Palace, and quickly caught up with Song Yuyi who had just left: "Song Yuyi, please stay."

Song Yuyi turned around and hurriedly saluted: "I see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"The imperial doctor of the Song Dynasty is exempt from the ceremony."

"I don't know what the prince's highness is looking for the minister?"

"I want Imperial Physician Song to follow me to Ziwei Palace." Yu Chenglie said.

"Concubine Liu?" Song Yuyi stroked his gray beard with hesitation, "This..."

"Although Concubine Liu is now wearing a sinful body, she is still the imperial concubine after all. The imperial father only said that feet are grounded, but he never said that people are not allowed to visit, let alone that concubine Liu can not be treated if she is sick." Yu Yu Cheng Lie was a little displeased and said, "Physician Song can rest assured, even if the emperor really blames me, I will still be the one to blame. What's more, concubine Liu used to treat people very well, but now she is down and sick. If you want to take care of the doctor, the emperor will not blame you."

Yu Chenglie's words made Song Yuyi's old face blush, and he felt even more ashamed when he thought of the favor he had received from Concubine Liu: "His Royal Highness needless to say, the old minister just made this trip."

"Then there will be the Royal Physician Lao Song."

Ziwei Palace was still closed, Yu Chenglie knocked on the door twice and waited aside, a little eunuch opened the door after a while.

"The servant sees His Royal Highness the Prince."

"Get up quickly."

"Thank you, Your Highness." The little eunuch got up and followed Yu Chenglie and Song Yuyi, closing the door and coming in.

At this time, a little palace maid had pulled up the thick felt curtain and shouted into the room: "Your Majesty, the Third Highness has come down."

Doctor Song was taken aback for a moment, but seeing Yu Chenglie's usual look on his face, he understood what was going on.

Since seeing Concubine Liu that day, Yu Chenglie picked two nimble, smart and clever little maids and a young eunuch from his own palace to take care of Concubine Liu, and told them to use his name if they needed anything. Even though he asked for it, although the current Ziwei Palace was still deserted, it was much better than the dilapidated look he had seen at the beginning, at least everything was tidied up and organized.

Yu Chenglie led Doctor Song into the room, and a warm fragrance came over his face.

"Jueer." Concubine Liu was leaning on the bed to make a boot of dark blue silver brocade, and when Yu Chenglie came in, she put it in the sewing basket and let the little maid beside her take it down.

"Mother and concubine are not feeling well, why do you still do such exhausting needlework?" Yu Chenglie hurried forward.

"It's not a problem, it's annoying to lie down all the time." Concubine Liu smiled gently.

The little maid put away the sewing basket and put it in the cupboard, then turned around and said, "Your Majesty wants to make a pair of winter boots for His Highness, I'm afraid that Jin Yan and I are not good enough in craftsmanship, so we must do it ourselves."

"Let Jinying, Jinyan and the others make the winter boots, and the mother and concubine should take care of her health soon."

"I know, I know, it's still early in winter, I just do it slowly, and it doesn't feel too hard." Concubine Liu took Yu Chenglie's hand and asked him to sit down by the bed, her face full of love.

The room was quiet for a while, and everyone knew that the charcoal stove in the center of the main hall outside had been burning for a whole winter, seeing that the first month had passed and spring would begin, and Concubine Liu was still living in her four seasons in a daze.

"That's right, it's still early in winter, so mother and concubine can do it slowly." Yu Chenglie nodded, and then said, "My son saw that mother and concubine were not feeling well recently, so I informed my father today, and my father ordered the imperial doctor Song to come over. Diagnose the pulse for the mother and concubine."

The imperial doctor of the Song Dynasty came forward immediately knowingly: "I see the concubine Liu."

"The Imperial Physician Song please get up quickly." Concubine Liu showed joy, "It's hard work for the Imperial Physician Song to make a trip."

Song Yuyi hurriedly said: "It is my duty to see the doctor for your majesty, and I dare not talk about hard work. Your majesty cares about your majesty, and your majesty please allow me to treat you. I can also report to your majesty earlier."

"Then I'll be fine." Concubine Liu nodded, "Give me a seat."

"Thank you, ma'am." Song Yuyi thanked him, turned around and put the medicine box on the table.

The little maid in this room had already served Concubine Liu to lie down, put a white silk handkerchief on Concubine Liu's wrist, and the little eunuch moved a round stool and placed it beside the bed.

"I don't know what are the symptoms of my mother's recent physical discomfort?" Song Yuyi sat on the round stool and began to feel the pulse of Concubine Liu.

"Actually, it's not a serious problem, but I can't sleep well at night, often woke up by nightmares, and I'm very tired during the day." Concubine Liu said.

Physician Song nodded and then said, "May I have your other hand examined, Madam?"

Doctor Song examined the pulse of Concubine Liu's hands respectively, and then looked up at Yu Chenglie who was standing by the bed. Yu Chenglie frowned when he saw this, and then nodded slightly at Doctor Song.

Doctor Song stood up and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. The reason why your Majesty dreams a lot at night and is tired during the day is due to the lack of energy and blood. I will prescribe a prescription for your Majesty to take care of it slowly."

"In this way, I am relieved, and please ask the imperial doctor Song to go back and report to His Majesty."

"My minister retire."

The little eunuch waiting at the side hurriedly took the medicine box on the table for Song Yuyi and sent him out.

"Mother and concubine, I will go with Song Yuyi to return to the father's life." Yu Chenglie said.

"Okay, you go." Concubine Liu nodded and urged, "It's getting cold in autumn now, I need to remind your father to dress more, and advise your father not to work too hard."

"My son, take it down."

Yu Chenglie came out of the Ziwei Palace, and sure enough, he saw Song Yuyi waiting for him not far away.

"His Royal Highness." Song Yuyi hurried forward to salute.

"Physician Song, please come with me to Yuexi Palace, this is not a place to talk." Yu Chenglie stepped forward and said.

"Yes." Doctor Song immediately understood.

The two of them entered Yuexi Palace, and it was only then that Yu Chenglie uttered the doubts that he had already guessed in his heart.

"Did the Song imperial doctor find out that there is something strange about Concubine Liu's condition?"

"Your Highness is right." Doctor Song nodded.

"What's going on?"

"The empress's symptoms are indeed like a lack of energy and blood, but after examining the pulse, I found that the empress's pulse is empty, her breath is disordered, and her internal organs and organs are also damaged to varying degrees. In addition, it seems that there is something wrong with her spirit now. I feel that ..." Song Yuyi pondered for a while, "I think it's probably caused by drugs."

"Drugs?" Yu Chenglie was shocked.

"Yes." Imperial Physician Song continued, "And depending on the extent of the damage to your mother's liver, I'm afraid it has been a long time."

"Do you know what kind of medicine it is?" Yu Chenglie knew that in the harem there was never a lack of infighting, but Concubine Liu had been out of favor for many years, who would want to put her to death?

"This minister will not know."

"Doctor Song means that Concubine Liu's insanity is also affected by drugs?"

"I don't dare to jump to conclusions, but I feel that this is the case in nine out of ten."

The main hall of Yuexi Palace was silent for a while, Yu Chenglie sat in the chair, his brows slowly furrowed.

After a long time, Yu Chenglie said: "Physician Song, let's go back first. Physician Song knows what to do about today's matter."

"Yes, I understand, I will leave." Song Yuyi retreated, and he secretly sighed in his heart that today was a troublesome matter.

Yu Chenglie called a little eunuch immediately after Song Yuyi left: "Go to Ziwei Palace and find Jin Ying or Jin Yan."

Not long after, Jinying arrived at Yuexi Palace.

"Slaves see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Get up, I have something to ask you."

"Yes." Jin Ying saw that Yu Chenglie's complexion was not very good, and felt a little uneasy.

"Concubine Liu is not feeling well, do you have other symptoms?"

Jinying replied: "In addition to the symptoms mentioned by the empress, she often sweats coldly, and eats very little."

"do you have anything else?"

Jin Ying thought for a while and said: "There's nothing else, but I feel that Empress seems to be much better recently."

"Oh, how do you say that?"

"The slaves don't know much about medical skills, but the lady seems to have regained consciousness a lot in the past few days. Although she is still a little confused, she is much better than when the slaves first entered the Ziwei Palace."

Jinying's words reminded Yu Chenglie of the first time he saw Concubine Liu after returning to the palace, and by comparison, he found that he was really much better recently.

"Since the three of you have served in Ziwei Palace, who will go there often?"

"There are not many people, except for you, His Highness the Crown Prince, and Aunt Zixi, who is next to the Fourth Highness and the Empress, have come here once or twice."

"Have you brought anything?"

"The Fourth Highness came empty-handed twice. He came to sit with the empress for a while and then left, but Aunt Zixi would bring some clothes and snacks when she came, and said that the empress had sent them over."

"How many times have you delivered it?"

"Three or four times a month, sometimes for clothes and sometimes for snacks." Jinying added, "I heard that when His Highness the Crown Prince didn't return to the palace, it was the empress who often asked Aunt Zixi to bring clothes and snacks."

After hearing Jinying's words, Yu Chenglie couldn't help clenching his hands on the armrests under his sleeves, but his face was a little quiet: "From today on, whoever sends things to Ziwei Palace must come and tell you in private. I say."

Jinying is very clever, and she knew there must be something tricky in it as soon as she heard it, but she also knew that it was her duty to be a servant in the palace not to be curious and not to ask more questions, so she immediately responded: "This servant knows."

"In a while, you go to Song Yuyi's side to get the medicine he prescribed, and when you go back, decoct it for your empress on time, and say that I came to you to ask you to take care of your empress."

"The servant understands."

After Jinying left, Yu Chenglie's face darkened. Jinying's words forced him to think in a direction that he couldn't accept.He knew that countless conspiracies and schemes were hidden in the harem of all dynasties, and the vicious methods and sinister intentions often made people creepy, but he never imagined that his closest relatives would also be involved in such a conspiracy.He couldn't figure out why Concubine Liu had anything to do with calculations, and he didn't believe that his virtuous and dignified queen mother would do such a thing, so he thought there must be someone else behind it.He knew very well that he discovered this by accident today, and if something really happened to Concubine Liu one day, he would immediately point the finger at Empress Zhou after a little investigation.

Yu Chenglie knew that this matter must be investigated as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.But he didn't know much about many things after he was away from the palace these years, and now he must find a reliable person to help him sort out this matter together.

"Dong dong..." There was a soft knock on the door outside.

"What's the matter." Yu Chenglie rubbed the center of his brows, trying to get himself back to normal.

"Your Highness, the Fourth Highness is here." The little eunuch who came in reported respectfully.

"Let him in quickly." Yu Chenglie hurriedly got up and greeted him out. Yes, the only person he can trust and rely on right now is Yu Chenglin, his beloved fourth brother who grew up with him since he was a child.
