Chapter 916: Does the empress dowager take her medicine on time?
The Emperor asked the old mama standing on the side: “Did you call the doctor?”
The Old Mama replied: “Yes, the doctor should be on the way.”
While talking, Imperial Doctor Xu came in. When he saw that the emperor was also there, he hurriedly saluted.
The emperor waved his hand: “You don’t need to be polite, go and see the empress dowager.” He sighed inside his heart. He doesn’t know how many times he had seen this kind of drama. Also, his imperial mother used to play this set when she was still an imperial concubine. She thought she was doing well, and nobody could see it, but in fact, who could not see it? It was just, no one dares to expose her.
Imperial Doctor Xu stepped forward and checked the empress dowager’s pulse repeatedly. Seeing this, the emperor became anxious: “What’s wrong?”
Imperial Doctor Xu withdrew his hand, turned around, and knelt, then said to the emperor: “The emperor, Miss Bai has long given advice, that the empress dowager should not be irritated, and the medicine must be taken for at least half a year. But today, the empress dowager’s pulse was more disordered than the last time.”
The emperor couldn’t understand, so he asked directly: “What do you mean? Make it clear.”
At this time, the empress dowager, who was lying on the bed also opened her eyes, tilted her head slightly, and looked at Imperial Doctor Xu with a look of concern.
Imperial Doctor Xu said again: “Answering back the emperor, the empress dowager’s pulse condition is not very good. I think the empress dowager failed to take the medicine on time and got angry again, which made her condition rapidly changed.”
The emperor swept his eyes towards the Old Mama: “Does the empress dowager take medicine on time?”
The Old Mama glanced at the empress dowager on the bed and nodded her head immediately: “Yes, the empress dowager has been taking the medicine on time.”
The empress dowager, who was lying on the said: “This empress dowager has already said that that little girl can’t be trusted, you don’t believe it.”
The emperor frowned and didn’t speak. Imperial Doctor Xu looked at the Old Mama and asked: “Did the empress dowager take her medicine today according to the prescription?”
The Old Mama nodded her head hurriedly: “Yes, the medicine is prepared according to Miss Bai’s prescription.”
Imperial Doctor Xu shook his head: “Old Mama, I’m afraid you are not telling the truth.”
The Old Mama’s complexion changed and said anxiously: “Imperial Doctor Xu, you can’t frame a good person in front of the emperor. How can this slave tell such a lie?”
Imperial Doctor Xu said to the emperor: “The emperor, when this old doctor entered the Cifu Palace, he saw a maid carrying the medicine dregs to throw away. This old doctor looked at the medicine dregs. Those herbs were definitely different from Miss Bai’s prescription and more like Imperial Doctor Liang’s prescribed medicine.”
The emperor knew Imperial Doctor Xu’s temperament. He was an upright and straightforward person.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t say those words on the New Year’s Eve banquet that the empress dowager’s illness cannot be cured. If it was somebody else, even if they knew that it was an incurable disease, they wouldn’t tell the truth. It was also because of these old doctors’ stubbornness that the empress dowager’s treatment has been delayed.
The emperor said to the old mama with a deep voice: “You still don’t want to tell the truth?”
The Old Mama quickly knelt on the floor. Her body was trembling in fear and couldn’t say a word.
What will she say? Say that this matter has nothing to do with her, it is all the empress dowager’s wishes?
Then even if she escaped the emperor’s punishment, she wouldn’t be able to escape the empress dowager’s punishment. She might as well gritted her teeth and made a pitiful look so that the empress dowager will give her a way out.
“This old servant even dare to change the empress dowager’s medicine. This emperor really doesn’t know whether she wants to live or die. Someone come, drag this slave out, and hit her with boards for 30 times.”
The old mama was almost paralyzed in fright. If she was beaten with thirty boards, she wouldn’t be able to survive.
She turned around and threw herself in front of the empress dowager’s bed: “Empress Dowager, please save this slave.”
The empress dowager knew that the emperor was angry. She shouldn’t plead for mercy, but this old slave has been with her for many years. She has been loyal and capable of doing things. If she’s gone, she doesn’t know if she can order someone else comfortably.
