Chapter 581 Things are going to change
Xiao Ce pondered for a moment, and finally remembered a person he had never doubted. He said one word at a time: "Mr. Feng!"
"Exactly. Doctor Feng is the only one who can get close to the emperor without drawing attention to him, because he is a doctor and is usually highly valued by the emperor and the crown prince. Last time in Cihe Palace, I noticed the queen mother
When the Queen Mother felt unwell, she immediately thought of asking Dr. Feng to help the Queen Mother with a diagnosis, but she never thought that Dr. Feng would be the one who poisoned her." Qin Zhao said seriously.
Imperial Physician Feng is the emperor's exclusive physician. He has served the emperor for so many years and is always a kind person. Who would suspect that he poisoned the emperor?
If it hadn't been discovered that the emperor had been poisoned about a year ago, she would not have focused her suspicion on Imperial Physician Feng.
"Zhang Jixiang, go and get Imperial Physician Feng!" Xiao Ce opened his lips coldly.
He would like to ask clearly who gave him the courage to do such a treacherous thing, Imperial Physician Feng!
Zhang Jixiang responded and left.
Because the emperor is seriously ill, all the imperial doctors from the imperial hospital stayed in the palace today to deliver the edict.
Zhang Jixiang led his people to the Imperial Hospital. Some people said that Imperial Physician Feng was waiting for orders in the Yangxin Hall.
Zhang Jixiang had no choice but to turn around and go to Yangxin Hall.
Unexpectedly, when I went to Yangxin Hall, the servants here said that they had not seen Dr. Feng.
Zhang Jixiang secretly thought something was wrong, so he took people to the place where Imperial Physician Feng usually rested.
When he rushed in and saw Imperial Physician Feng sitting on the stool, he felt slightly relieved: "Master Feng, His Royal Highness has an order to come with our house!"
Imperial Physician Feng did not move, still sitting in his original position.
Zhang Jixiang's heart sank slightly. He stepped forward and met Dr. Feng, who fell down...
Qin Zhao was not that surprised when he learned that Dr. Feng died of exhaustion.
The fact that a person like Dr. Feng could be manipulated by someone behind his back meant that he was very capable. But she didn't expect that the other party would attack so quickly and kill Dr. Feng before Xiao Ce could.
Doctor Feng died without leaving any evidence, so it would not be easy to find out who was behind it.
Because Doctor Feng, the poisoner, suddenly died suddenly, Xiao Ce could not rest early that night, and could not rest until midnight.
Qin Zhao didn't sleep well at night. Apart from Concubine Wu, she really couldn't think of anyone else in the harem who had such extraordinary skills that a good old doctor like Dr. Feng could commit such a big thing for her.
Xiao Ce got up early in the morning.
The emperor's condition suddenly worsened. Although Luo Qing tried his best to treat him, the poison had entered the emperor's internal organs for nearly a year. Now that the poison has taken hold, even Luo Qing is not sure that the emperor can survive in such a bad situation.
How long to live.
As the crown prince, Xiao Ce must take charge of the affairs of the court at this time, and he will also preside over the affairs of the court.
Qin Zhao also woke up at this time, and she stepped forward to help Xiao Ce change his clothes. Thinking that the emperor's time was running out, and Xiao Ce would put on the dragon robe and sit on the dragon chair, she felt a little heavy.
"Your Highness, please be well." Qin Zhao said softly.
Although the news that the emperor was seriously ill was blocked, the news still spread quickly. Many people in the harem spread the news that the situation in Daqi was about to change.
"You should also take care of yourself. Don't leave the palace recently. Just stay at Wangyue Residence. It's best not to go anywhere." Xiao Ce warned.
Qin Zhao nodded.
After a moment of silence, she suddenly remembered something serious: "Your Highness, could you tell the Queen Mother to finalize Princess Yonghe's marriage as soon as possible?"
Otherwise, if the emperor dies, Princess Yonghe, as the emperor's daughter, must observe filial piety and not be allowed to marry for three years. By then, Princess Yonghe will be old, and it will be more difficult to negotiate a marriage.
Xiao Ce nodded slightly: "I will discuss this matter with the emperor's grandmother, and will also ask Yonghe clearly what he means."
Qin Zhao brushed off the folds on Xiao Ce's clothes, and after a while he said, "I'll escort His Highness out of the East Palace."
Maybe in the near future, she won't have the chance to see Xiao Ce off the East Palace like she did today, because Xiao Ce will be the king by then and will live in the Yangxin Palace, and the East Palace will become his hometown.
At that time, Xiao Ce's responsibilities would be heavier.
"Zhao Zhao, you will always stay with me, right?" Xiao Ce took Qin Zhao's hand and walked forward. His voice was a little hoarse perhaps because he didn't get enough rest.
"Of course, I have agreed with His Highness that we will be together forever." Qin Zhao smiled brightly.
Xiao Ce touched her head: "Yes, we promised to be together for a lifetime, but you can't break your promise. No matter what happens in the future, you can't leave."
He knew that she longed for a life outside the palace, otherwise she would not run outside the palace all day long, but she was destined to live within the palace walls.
"That's natural, except for birth, old age, illness and death. No one can control this kind of thing." Qin Zhao still didn't dare to speak too fully.
Even a real emperor like the emperor can be poisoned, so how does she know whether she, a cannon fodder, can live long?
Xiao Ce held her hand tightly, knowing that she was sensible.
After he left the East Palace, he couldn't help but look back.
Qin Zhao stood at the entrance of the palace and did not go far. Seeing him turn around, she waved her hand and said, "Your Highness, please come back early for dinner. Your Highness just didn't have breakfast."
"Okay, you go back and catch up on your sleep." Xiao Ce was already looking forward to going to court early and seeing Qin Zhao again soon.
Qin Zhao originally wanted to go back to Wangyueju, but considering that these are troubled times, she still hopes to spend more time with Xiao Ce at such a critical moment.
Wu Xirou came to the main hall according to Xiao Ce's schedule, but she never expected to bump into Qin Zhao in the study.
As Qin Zhao said, she is a lazy and undisciplined person, and Qin Zhao never does such things as competing for favor.
But yesterday Qin Zhao was in the main hall, and today she is here waiting for Xiao Ce. It was because what she said yesterday made Qin Zhao unhappy, so does Qin Zhao want to teach her a lesson?
Wu Xirou stepped forward to greet Qin Zhao with mixed emotions. Looking at Qin Zhao's peaceful face, she felt the need to explain: "I didn't mean to offend my sister yesterday. I did it because I like the Crown Prince too much and don't want to be on bad terms with my sister."
I spoke the truth. If my words make my sister unhappy in any way, my sister is tolerant and don’t hold it against me."
Qin Zhao was reading a book, and she was a little confused when she heard Wu Xirou's words: "What do you mean, sister?"
She really didn't understand why Wu Xirou told her this.
Wu Xirou thought Qin Zhao was deliberately making things difficult for her, and it took her a while to say: "My sister and I must apologize..."
"Wait a minute, did my sister do anything to make me sorry?" Qin Zhao interrupted Wu Xirou's self-righteousness.
Wu Xirou said: "Isn't sister just trying to get angry with me?"
Qin Zhao felt a little tired of communicating with Wu Xirou, so she sighed softly: "Which of your sister's eyes saw me venting my anger on my sister? By the way, why should I vent my anger on my sister?"
She really didn't understand Wu Xirou's brain circuit and felt very confused.
