Mu Ci stood up while thinking about it and was about to leave.
Yun Xi looked at her back and suddenly stumbled off the bed, chasing after her and asking: "Mu Ci, why did you marry the late emperor when you could obviously marry the emperor and become the queen?"
Why did Mu Ci choose to be the Queen Mother instead of being the Queen?
Otherwise, she probably wouldn't have dealt with Mu Ci so quickly, and definitely wouldn't have reached this point so early. It was Mu Ci who forced her to a dead end.
Mu Ci slowed down, looked at the distant skylight in front of him, and quietly opened his lips: "Because the Ai family returned from hell, they know that Dugu Liancheng is not a good man..."
Yun Xi's expression changed after hearing this, and she shouted loudly: "You lied! You clearly love the emperor so much that you would do whatever it takes to climb onto the emperor's dragon bed. You can deceive the world, but you can't deceive me."
Mu Ci looked back and smiled: "What you said makes sense. The Ai family loves his power very much."
Yun Xi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed.
At the end of her laugh, she shed tears. Everyone was vying for the emperor to love, but Mu Ci only admired the emperor's power?
That's ridiculous……
It wasn't until the door of the North Palace was closed that Yun Xi's crazy laughter was blocked.
Mu Ci has something on his mind.
Someone changed the deadly poison, obviously to save the little prince's life, but did not expose the trick. Could that person be Dugu Liancheng?
But when I think about Dugu Liancheng's temperament, I feel that this possibility is very small.
Dugu Liancheng would turn a blind eye to the fights in the harem, but he would not engage in mischief with his concubines.
What's more, that's his favorite little prince?
This person behind the scenes must be one of the concubines in the harem, or perhaps a concubine with an unyielding conscience. As for who she is, I have no clue at the moment, and I can't figure out the reason no matter how hard I try.
This matter can only be put on hold for the time being.
As for that night in Chenxiang Palace, it was definitely not Yun Xi's fault.
Yun Xi wished that she could be as far away from the emperor as possible. In this case, it would be impossible for her to get together with the emperor.
After another two days of calm, news came from Fei Yuxuan that the little prince's cough became more severe.
Long Yan of Dugu Liancheng was furious. Two of the imperial doctors were beaten to death on the spot. He also threatened that he could not think of a suitable medicine. The little prince had some shortcomings and the entire imperial hospital would be buried with him.
For a time, people in Taiyuan Hospital were panic-stricken, and everyone was extremely frightened.
After Mu Ci learned about this, he did not go to Feiyuxuan.
In this situation, it would be useless for her to go there. Although she knew a little about medicine, she could not help. Even Dr. Zhang could not find out the cause of the disease. She did not know how to save the little prince, and she could not think of a way.
She didn't know whether she was suspected of being seriously ill, but she always felt that the little prince's cough was a bit strange.
Just when she wanted to take a rest, Li Yu hurried to Yong'an Palace and knelt down in front of her: "Empress, help!"
Mu Ci looked sideways when he heard this: "The emperor wants your life?"
"No, the emperor is furious and wants to bloodbath the Imperial Hospital." Li Yu said, and then added: "Including Imperial Doctor Zhang."
He knew that Mu Ci was familiar with Dr. Zhang, so he specifically mentioned Dr. Zhang.
Mu Ci looked at the medical book placed on the sandalwood table, his eyes darkening.
Dr. Zhang is an upright man and a good doctor, and he should not suffer unreasonable disasters.
"If you don't go, it will be too late." Li Yu was worried.
The emperor has just ascended the throne, and he has just dealt a cruel blow to the Yun family. If he bloodbaths the Imperial Hospital this time, he will only be afraid of the public's anger.
At present, only the Queen Mother can stop the emperor from killing him.
"Let's go." After Mu Ci finished speaking, he took the lead in leaving Yong'an Palace.
Li Yu ordered Bu Yu's servant to speed up and arrived at the Tai Hospital in less than half the time as usual.
Everyone in Guo Jian Tai Hospital was kneeling on the ground, including Dr. Zhang.
Dugu Liancheng sat on the dragon throne with a gloomy expression, his face full of anger.
When he first saw Mu Ci appearing, Dugu Liancheng's expression relaxed, but his tone was not kind: "What are you doing here, Queen Mother? Do you want to see me kill someone?"
Mu Ci raised his lips without smiling: "The Ai family just came here to see how childish the emperor can be. The little prince is almost dead, and the emperor still has the leisure to kill people. This shows what kind of good father the emperor is."
Dugu Liancheng frowned when he heard this.
Of course he knew that the little prince's condition was critical. Otherwise, he would not have wanted to go on a killing spree. It was only because the hospital had a bunch of trash that they couldn't even cure the cough.
"Maybe the emperor can kill the entire harem to see if the little prince can get better." Mu Ci continued to sarcastically.
Dugu Liancheng pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.
Mu Ci was too lazy to talk nonsense to Dugu Liancheng and said to Dr. Zhang: "Doctor Zhang, get up. The Ai family has something to ask you."
Doctor Zhang immediately looked at Long Live Lord.
Long Live Master was still expressionless. He was a little hesitant, wondering whether he should listen to the Queen Mother's words.
"Hurry up, the little prince's life is more important than the emperor's majesty right now." Mu Ci said coldly.
Doctor Zhang thinks this is reasonable.
Your life is almost gone, are you still afraid of disobeying the imperial edict?
He quickly stood up and followed Mu Ci away.
Fortunately, the emperor did not stop him, and he knew that his decision was right.
Mu Ci walked to a place with fewer people and said, "You said that the little prince's condition is strange and that all the cough symptoms are different. Is it possible that the little prince has been poisoned?"
Upon hearing this, Doctor Zhang immediately denied: "Impossible! The little prince does not have any symptoms of poisoning, so he cannot be poisoned."
"The Aijia also read a medical book yesterday. Newborns have poor immunity. If some medicines are not absorbed, good medicine may turn into poison. The poisoning that the Aijia mentioned is that the little prince may have come into contact with something that is not good for the little prince's constitution.
If there are too many things, the cough will become worse." Mu Ci expressed his thoughts.
"If the medicine is incompatible with the little prince's constitution, we should be able to diagnose it." Dr. Zhang thought thoughtfully, but still felt that the possibility of Mu Ci's suggestion was too small.
Mu Ci was silent for a moment when he heard what he said.
Seeing her solemn expression, Doctor Zhang thought she was unhappy and said, "I am just telling the truth. I hope the Queen Mother will forgive me."
Mu Ci didn't seem to hear Dr. Zhang's words. She murmured to herself: "If it's not that the food is incompatible with each other, could it be that he was poisoned?"
When Dr. Zhang heard this, his pupils tightened.
Poison?
He has no experience in this area, so he cannot detect it. But this thing is very vicious. Is it too vicious to use it on such a young prince?
"Mr. Zhang, the little prince's condition is urgent and all possibilities should be considered." Mu Ci said softly.
"I happen to know a doctor who knows about poisonous poisons, so I will leave the palace right away." Doctor Zhang said, and he waved his hands respectfully to Mu Ci: "Thank you, the Empress Dowager, for your advice."
"You're welcome, the Ai family can't help. Just leave the palace, and the Ai family will talk to the emperor." Mu Ci signaled to Dr. Zhang to hurry up.
