But facing Lao Zhu, who has fallen into despair, and facing Lao Zhu who regards himself as the last straw, can Han Du still say no?
Seeing that Han Du was about to jump into the fire pit, Zhu Xi immediately straightened up and said: "Father, Han Du is just a proficient in medical skills. At most, he only has some methods for some difficult and complicated diseases. Isn't my mother sick?
, not to mention a difficult and complicated disease, but because I spent too much energy when I was young. Coupled with my old age, I have reached the point where my energy is exhausted."
"Shut up!" Lao Zhu couldn't listen to Zhu Xi's words at all, and interrupted with a roar before he could finish speaking.
Lao Zhu suddenly became furious, pointing at Zhu Xi's nose and yelling: "Your medical skills are high, but you are proficient in medical skills. Also, you claim to be the best in medical skills in the Ming Dynasty. If you are so capable, then you can save your stepmother for me."
ah?" .??.
Zhu Xi's old face turned red after being scolded, and he replied angrily, "Father, my mother is not sick, but when the oil is exhausted, there is no cure at all."
"I don't care, if you have the ability to cure your mother, then you should cure it quickly. If you don't have the ability, then just shut up!" Lao Zhu interrupted Zhu Xi without hesitation.
This made Zhu Yi unable to explain clearly, and his face turned red from holding back.
When Han Du heard Zhu Xi's words, he knew that Empress Ma's situation could not be cured by himself. When he heard Lao Zhu ask Zhu Xi to shut up, Han Du also thought that it was best for Lao Zhu to let himself do the same.
Shut up. This way, you don't have to let Lao Zhu have hope in his heart, and then have to extinguish his hope.
There was nothing Zhu Tie could do, so what could he do? And Zhu Tie made it very clear that Empress Ma was at the end of her lifespan. Not to mention herself, even the immortal Da Luo would not be able to save her.
When Zhu Biao saw that his father had placed all his hopes on Han Du, he immediately knew that something was wrong. So he said: "Father, the fifth brother's medical skills are the best in the Ming Dynasty. Everyone in the world knows this. Although Han Du
I have some abilities, but in terms of medical skills, I am far behind my fifth brother."
Lao Zhu suddenly turned around and glared at Zhu Biao fiercely.
Zhu Biao immediately shut his mouth and did not dare to continue talking.
Lao Zhu turned around and immediately pulled Han Du's arm eagerly, promising boldly: "As long as you can save the girl, I can make you the Duke of the country or the prince, and I can even give you whatever you want."
Faced with such a dilemma, Han Du's mind was like lightning. In an instant, Han Du calmed down without any panic on his face. He bowed and replied: "I should do my best to diagnose and treat my mother."
"
Okay, haha, okay! In the end, you are the most reliable." Lao Zhu happily pulled Han Du to the bed and quickly urged: "Hurry up and show me to my sister."
Han Du had no choice but to sit down on the stool, stretched out his hand and put his fingers on Queen Ma's wrist, ready to feel the pulse before making a plan. At this point, Han Du could only go on step by step.
There is no way at all.
For a moment, the air in the room seemed to solidify.
No matter that An Qing and Han Jingyun were nervously worried about Han Du, and even kneaded the hem of their clothes with their fingers to create wrinkles, they didn't notice it. This matter was too dangerous, and there was no way Han Du could save his mother and queen. Once his father did this,
I'm furious, what should I do?
Zhu Biao and Zhu Xi also frowned at the same time. They were both thinking hard in their hearts, thinking about how to save Han Du when their father was furious.
Han Du turned his back to everyone and was completely unaware of everyone's nervousness and worry. The only person in front of him now was Queen Ma, and this was also a huge trouble.
Han Du sighed helplessly, and suddenly put his fingers on Queen Ma's wrist. He didn't know if he didn't check, but he was startled when he looked. Only after Han Du felt Queen Ma's pulse did he understand why even Zhu, who was highly skilled in medicine,
Everyone will be helpless.
Queen Ma's pulse was weak and weak, and the interval between each beat was very long. There was even a tendency that the interval was gradually lengthening, as if it would stop at the next moment.
Such Queen Ma was so angry that she could die at any time.
"How is it? Is the girl saved?" Lao Zhu saw that Han Du was silent for a long time, so he couldn't help but stepped forward and asked.
Han Du turned his head and glanced back at Lao Zhu, thinking: Now you have to say, no matter what I say, I will be forgiven, and I will tell you right away, there is no way to save the queen.
It's a pity that Lao Zhu didn't understand the meaning in Han Du's eyes at all, he just kept hoping that Han Du could save his girl.
Just when Han Du didn't know how to answer, a soft moan came from behind him.
Before Han Du could turn around to check, he heard Zhu Biao's expression of sadness suddenly turned into surprise. He immediately rushed to the bed and looked at his mother and said, "Mother, are you awake?"
Hearing that the girl had woken up, Lao Zhu suddenly pulled Han Du away, took three steps at a time and came to Queen Ma, and saw that she was really
He woke up. He immediately grabbed Queen Ma's hand and said happily: "Sister, good sister, you finally woke up."
"Mother"
"Mother"
An Qing and Han Jingyun also came forward to visit in surprise.
Only Han Du and Zhu Rui, who was kneeling on the ground, looked at each other. Not only did their expressions not show any signs of happiness, but their eyes were full of heaviness.
Both of them had checked Queen Ma's pulse, and there was absolutely no sign of sudden awakening and recovery. But for such a sudden change, the two of them thought there was only one possibility, that is, a return to the light!
Queen Ma looked at the people in front of her with a smile on her face. Her originally pale face gradually turned rosy at this moment, as if she had really recovered.
"Yuanzhang, Biao'er, Jingyun, Anqing." Empress Ma glanced at everyone in front of her one by one, then looked at Han Du and Zhu Zhu behind her, and continued: "Ji'er, Han Du, you guys can come over too.
.”
The faces of Han Du and Zhu Ru were completely filled with sadness instead of the happiness of others.
When others saw the expressions on the two people's faces, they were also shocked for a moment, and then they realized. It turned out that Queen Ma was not well, but had reached the moment of recovery.
"No, you two." Before Lao Zhu could say the word evil in his mouth, he was interrupted by a violent cough from Queen Ma.
Lao Zhu immediately gave up on the two of them, turned back to look at Queen Ma with concern, and asked quickly: "Sister, your illness is just right, please take a good rest."
"Yuan Zhang!"
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this soft call, he realized that this was the second time today that a girl called him this. The last time she called him this was probably thirty years ago.
Ever since Zhu Yuanzhang got married to Empress Ma, Empress Ma has called him by his first name. This habit of calling him continued until Lao Zhu Jianguo proclaimed himself emperor. Empress Ma stopped calling him by his first name due to his status as emperor.
But only now did Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly realize that the word "emperor" from a girl's mouth was not as cordial as the word "Yuanzhang". Unfortunately, he had lacked the title of Empress Ma for thirty years.
"Sister, sister, you say, you say" Lao Zhu couldn't help but shed two tears in his eyes, choking with sobs as he tried to comfort his sister.
Queen Ma turned her head and glanced at Zhu Biao
, said: "Biao'er, help mother up."
"Yes." Zhu Biao also had tears streaming from his eyes. He lowered his head and stepped forward to help his mother up, and put a soft cushion on her back.
Empress Ma sighed, as if she was trying to use up all her strength. She looked at Lao Zhu and sighed: "Life and death are determined by God. It is God's arrangement. No matter how much medicine is taken, what's the use?"
What's more! Besides, Ji'er's medical skills have already reached their peak, and even he can't do anything about it. How can you, Yuan Zhang, force Han Du to do so? If good medical skills can make people immortal, then doesn't Qin Shihuang also need to die?"
"Yuanzhang, you have said before that you will never bring trouble to the world for the sake of illusory immortality like Qin Shihuang did. And you have always done a good job and devoted yourself to the management of the Ming Dynasty. You have never
I have prayed for the elusive immortality. Since you, Yuan Zhang, can face life, old age, illness and death calmly, why are you so stubborn now that it is my turn?"
"I" Zhu Yuanzhang was distracted for a while. Faced with Empress Ma's questioning, he even forgot to call himself.
After Lao Zhu came to his senses, Queen Ma fell into a weak sleep again.
Lao Zhu had no choice but to put Queen Ma into bed with his own hands, then stood up and turned around, looking at the people in front of him. Lao Zhu waved his hands helplessly and said, "You all go, I want to accompany my sister well."
When Zhu Biao saw it, he couldn't bear it. He stepped forward and said, "Father, please take care of the dragon body."
"Stand back." Lao Zhu seemed not to want to say another word, turned around, and sat down in front of Queen Ma.
Han Du had no choice but to follow the crowd and retreat to the outside of the palace. After taking a look at Zhu Zhu, Han Du approached and asked, "Why did the empress' condition suddenly become so severe?"
Zhu Ju sighed and said: "Actually, my mother's condition has been going on for more than half a year. I knew from the beginning that there was no cure. I just used your sturgeon and dragon tendon food supplement method to treat the symptoms but not the root cause. It can delay the disease."
Up to now, it is much better than before. Without your prescription for food supplements, the Queen Mother would have been able to survive for two months at most."
Hearing this, Han Du nodded and looked at Zhu Biao. He originally wanted to say something to express his condolences, but when he thought that although Empress Ma was on her deathbed, she had not passed away yet, so Han Du swallowed the words that were on his lips.
Went back.
Zhu Biao was also full of sorrow, waved his hand and said: "Fifth brother, you have been busy these days. You have been waiting for my mother these days. You must be exhausted. Go back first."
Then he said to Han Du: "You entered the palace just after you came back, so you should go back first."
