"Empress, you want to live a long life." Aunt Ying knelt down with tears streaming down her face.
The Empress Dowager shook her head gently: "If I don't live a long life, I will die soon."
As if to confirm what she said, her throat felt itchy and she couldn't stop coughing.
She was used to being elegant, and even when she coughed she would take out a handkerchief and cover her mouth tightly.
When I finally stopped, I looked again and saw a few spots of bright red blood on the snow-white silk handkerchief.
Aunt Ying felt a thump in her heart.
The imperial doctor once said that if the blood is dark red, it doesn't matter, because it is congestion of old blood.
But if it is bright red blood, it is serious, which means that the internal organs have been bleeding. If it cannot be stopped, something serious will happen.
"Your Majesty, please call me the imperial physician." Aunt Ying carefully helped the Empress Dowager sit down and signaled the palace maid to ask for the imperial physician.
The Queen Mother gently shook her head: "No, it's just a few prescriptions. I'm tired of taking them. If you don't tell them, they'll panic. Why bother."
The court was already in a state of turmoil, and if there was even the slightest movement in the palace, it would cause chaos.
In particular, the Lin family was the most afraid. Whenever they heard something was wrong here, Lin Youfang would ask Mrs. Lin to take her daughter-in-law into the palace to wait for the illness.
Being there to wait for the disease is not really to wait for the disease. Instead, it seems to be watching with covetous eyes, fearing that the benefits will be neglected and others will take advantage of them.
Therefore, neither the Empress Dowager nor Aunt Ying liked the female members of the Lin family entering the palace. Aunt Ying became silent after hearing this. After a while, she sighed: "If the doctor is here, he will definitely be able to cure this disease."
She suddenly thought of Gu Changqing: "Where is the great apprentice of the medical elder? It was said that he followed Mrs. An Guo before. Did he bring him back this time?"
She immediately asked someone to ask Gu Yilan: "Priest Gu must know, I will invite someone to show it to the empress."
The Empress Dowager stopped her: "Why are you anxious? Let's see how Mu Yunhan handles His Majesty's affairs first."
If Gu Changqing was in the capital, Mu Yunhan would definitely ask him to treat Yan'er.
If she doesn't, it means that Gu Changqing is not here, so there is no need to do anything more, but it will make Mu Yunhan feel disgusted.
Aunt Ying lowered her head and sobbed: "Are we just going to do nothing?"
The Queen Mother was silent for a long time and whispered: "I often think that maybe I have done too much."
A palace official whispered: "My dear, Mrs. Anguo, please see me."
The Empress Dowager said: "Xuan."
Mu Yunhan walked in and bowed silently. As soon as he stood still, he heard the Empress Dowager calmly say: "Please sit down."
Mu Yunhan did not refuse. He sat firmly before saying, "Your Majesty is asleep. I would like to see the medical records. Please allow me to do so."
The Empress Dowager said cheerfully: "Give it to her."
Someone from the palace passed the order, and after a cup of tea, the head of the Taiyuan Hospital, Zhang, personally presented the medical records.
Mu Yunhan turned around and felt sad. The child was indeed going to die soon, just as she had concluded by taking his pulse just now.
She couldn't help but ask: "When my wife left the capital, Your Majesty was still in good health, why did he end up in this state?"
The Empress Dowager was a little unhappy, and after a while she said coldly: "How do I know? Maybe it's because you betrayed your trust and abandoned him, that's why he got sick?"
Anger welled up in Mu Yunhan's heart. She lowered her voice and said angrily: "I'm afraid the Queen Mother has forgotten that you are His Majesty's great-grandmother, and I am just an outsider."
