After hearing the news that Imperial Physician Cheng had arrived, Concubine Ying seemed to have stepped out of her own world.
He said with tears in his eyes.
"Mr. Cheng, look at the Fourth Prince. Why was he fine when he was rescued, but now he is like this?"
Upon hearing this, Doctor Cheng hurried forward to take a look.
After reaching out and touching the fourth prince's forehead, he said again.
"Your Majesty, it is better to place the fourth prince on the bed, so that the minister can be easily diagnosed and treated."
"well."
The little fourth prince used to be very lively, but now he seemed to have no muscles and bones, falling into a limp sleep.
Concubine Ying was crying so much that she couldn't control herself.
If Rongle hadn't been there to support him, he would have fallen down long ago.
After checking the pulse carefully, he said with relief.
"Don't worry, Madam. The fourth prince choked on the water and will naturally have some fever. This will force the cold out of the body. Don't be too anxious. Wei Chen will prescribe some medicine and he will be fine after taking it."
After hearing this, Mammy and Rongle felt relieved.
But Concubine Ying frowned and said.
"Mr. Cheng, I believe you also know that I just killed those careless slaves with a cane. If you are as careless as them, be careful that you will be the next one to have your head removed. Do you understand?"
Doctor Cheng's legs and feet became weak after being scolded like this.
He is an imperial physician, so his nose is naturally good.
As soon as I entered this courtyard, it was filled with the smell of blood. How could I not smell it?
I was scared in my heart, but no matter how scared I was, I still had to bite the bullet and treat the fourth prince.
Otherwise, I'm afraid Concubine Ying won't let him go, and it won't be easy for the emperor to explain to him.
"Don't worry, my dearest lady, I will do my best!"
After receiving repeated assurances from Dr. Cheng, Concubine Ying allowed him to write the prescription.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but Concubine Ying secretly gave instructions.
"I don't really believe in this Imperial Physician Cheng. Rongle will think of a way to go out and take the prescription to the famous doctors outside to have a look. If they are sure it is correct, then give it to the fourth prince."
"Your Majesty, the fourth prince is still feverish. Will something happen if he is delayed?"
"Hmph, when will it be your turn to question my will?"
Rongle was scolded by her and immediately shut up.
So after getting the prescription, I started looking for excuses to go out.
The poor fourth prince had no idea that his life was almost ruined because of Concubine Ying's excessive caution.
The emperor originally lived in the Qinxian Palace, but he moved to the west for Lin Wanyi.
Now, for the sake of convenience, it is natural to stay in the east.
When I slept until midnight, Dong Yuzhong suddenly came and reported in a hurry, saying that the fourth prince was not well.
The emperor was so frightened that he suddenly woke up from his sleep.
"What's going on? Didn't Dr. Cheng go to see me? He said it's nothing serious!"
"Back to the emperor, Dr. Cheng did visit and prescribed a prescription. However, Concubine Ying was worried that there was something wrong with the prescription, so she asked someone around her to take the prescription and go out to have a look. She has been there for most of the day, and she hasn't received it yet.
I'm back. Originally, the fourth prince was only slightly hot in the afternoon, but now he is so feverish that he is convulsing."
"Nonsense! Is Concubine Ying crazy? Everyone I sent is suspicious! If she delays the fourth prince, I will kill her!"
To the emperor, these concubines were nothing more than pawns to contain the previous dynasty.
I can't say there's anything sincere or unsincere about it.
Naturally, the prince is more important.
He didn't have many sons to begin with. Not counting those in Lin Wanyi's belly, there were only three now.
The second prince has just recovered from a serious illness, the third prince has always been in good health, and the fourth prince used to be in good health, but after Concubine Ying messed with him like this, he didn't know what his situation was.
He was naturally anxious.
So I hurriedly put on my clothes and went straight to Concubine Ying's yard.
As soon as he entered the door, he heard Concubine Ying's sharp voice crying. The emperor's heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition came over him.
Sure enough, the fourth prince's entire body was burning hot.
The child who used to be fair and tender is now like a ball of fire, and his lips are chapped.
Dr. Cheng below was kneeling and talking non-stop.
"Empress, please put down the Fourth Prince quickly and let me give you the acupuncture. Otherwise, if the Fourth Prince continues to twitch like this, there will be big problems!"
"No, no! You must be trying to harm my son! The eldest prince had such a fever back then, and it was you quack doctors who gave him injections, which made him die of illness in the end! It must be like this, it must be like this! It's you, it's
you!"
Concubine Ying was talking like crazy, holding the fourth prince tightly in her arms.
Naturally, she went crazy and ran around. The fourth prince was tossed around by her and rolled his eyes as he watched.
The emperor immediately scolded and said.
"Are all the people in this room useless? Go forward, hold Concubine Ying down, and snatch the Fourth Prince out!"
"yes!"
Mammy and Rong Jia stepped forward together, but they couldn't hold Concubine Ying down even with their strength.
When the emperor saw this, he didn't care about anything else. He stepped forward and started to snatch the child.
Unfortunately, Concubine Ying suddenly bit the emperor's arm and refused to let go.
The pain was so painful that the emperor gasped for breath.
Dong Yuzhong was frightened to death and immediately said to the guards behind him.
"Guard you, escort me!"
Then the whole person rushed forward, not caring about anything else, and just grabbed Concubine Ying tightly.
Want to pull her away from the emperor.
The guards were very strong and it didn't take much effort to separate the three of them.
Mammy protected the fourth prince and carried him to Dr. Cheng to see, but there was a deep tooth mark on the emperor's arm with blood stains on it, and the piece of flesh looked blue and purple.
Concubine Ying also fainted because of her excitement.
The maid Rong Jia quickly stepped forward to help him.
"Imperial physician, please come quickly! The emperor is injured!"
Dong Yuzhong's call made everyone in Concubine Ying's yard react.
How dare their queen!
Talk to the emperor!
Doesn't this mean that they will all die together?
For a moment, everyone fell to the ground trembling and shouting for mercy.
The emperor was very upset. There was some pain in his arm, but it was nothing compared to his worry about the fourth prince.
He pushed away Dong Yuzhong's hand holding him and said to everyone.
"Treat the fourth prince with all your strength. If he has a problem, you don't have to live."
"yes."
When Doctor Dou rushed over, he saw a mess in front of him.
When I saw some faint blood stains on the emperor's bright yellow clothes, I immediately took a look.
Then when he saw the wound that was as deep as bone, he still couldn't help but frown.
"Your Majesty, please be careful these days not to touch the water or eat, otherwise the weather will be too hot and the wound will easily recur."
"Well, after Doctor Dou has finished looking at the injury, let's go and see Concubine Ying. I look at her as if she is possessed by a demon.
