Chapter 109

This is fine, why did the Empress Dowager suddenly suffer from her old illness?

After Yan Shu and Yu Wenlan were surprised, they immediately rushed to Ci’an Palace to visit.

When they arrived at the place, they saw that the queen mother had already lay down on the bed, her eyes were closed tightly, her brows were frowning, and she looked very painful.

Beside the bed, Zhang Shengkang was checking the empress dowager’s pulse, seeing the two of them coming, he immediately saluted with others.

Seeing this scene, both of them paused in their hearts.

Both Yan Shu and Yu Wenlan knew that Zhang Shengkang’s intentions were not right, but the Empress Dowager trusted him very much, and whenever she felt uncomfortable, she would call him for pulse diagnosis immediately.

Of course, this person is not the focus right now, Yu Wenlan first ordered everyone to die, and then hurriedly asked, “How about the Queen Mother?”

But I heard Zhang Shengkang say, “Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager is still suffering from an old headache.”

Yan Shu was a little skeptical when she heard the words, and said, “Your Majesty was fine when I came here in the morning, why did you suddenly suffer from an old illness now?”

The voice fell, but Zhang Shengkang hurriedly said again, “I don’t know about the concubine Yi. The empress dowager’s illness is very easily affected by the outside weather. In the past, the empress dowager often fell ill because of the cold in autumn and winter and external wind evil. I heard that the empress dowager went out yesterday. Ascending, it is very likely that the cool wind on the mountain caused the old disease again.”

When Yan Shu heard this, she still looked suspicious.

real or fake? Yesterday was supposed to be not cold at all, Dangui Mountain was not high, and the wind was not strong, not to mention that the Empress Dowager was wearing a veil all the way out of the carriage, so there shouldn’t be any wind blowing?

…Could it be Zhang Shengkang who poisoned the Queen Mother?

Unexpectedly, just as he was thinking this way, he heard Zhang Shengkang sneer in his heart, [Why, do you think I will poison the queen mother? Oh, would I be that stupid? 】

Yanshu, “…”

Well, from this point of view, it wasn’t this person who was messing around?

On the other side, Yu Wenlan listened silently, and frowned secretly.

——Ever since he knew that Zhang Shengkang’s character was not good, he had also doubted whether the Queen Mother’s old illness was related to this person, but after listening to this person’s voice several times, he did not find any trace of this person doing anything on the Queen Mother.

Therefore, it seems that the queen mother’s old illness has nothing to do with him.

But at this time, hearing what this person said, he had no choice but to say to the Queen Mother, “How does the Queen Mother feel now? Yesterday, I was too reckless and caused the Queen Mother to suffer this crime.”

After the words fell, Yan Shu also said with guilt on her face, “The idea is from the concubine, and it is the concubine’s fault.”

Hearing what the two said, the Empress Dowager finally managed to open her eyes, and sighed, “I don’t blame you, it’s because the Ai family is too disappointing, so don’t blame yourself.”

As he spoke, he frowned tightly and closed his eyes, looking very painful.

I only saw the two of them and my heart tightened again.

Yan Shu hurriedly asked Zhang Shengkang again, “Then what should I do now? How can I make my mother recover quickly?”

But I heard Zhang Shengkang say, “I would like to report to Concubine Yi, the empress dowager is still mainly taking medicine to recuperate, she must stay in the room these few days, and must not catch cold or wind again.”

As if she was afraid that she would not believe it, she hurriedly explained, “Head wind is a very stubborn disease. For so many years, every time the Empress Dowager’s old disease flares up, she always treats it like this, and it cannot be cured.”

Yan Shu could only nod her head.

Alas, that’s true, in less than a year, she has seen the queen mother have seizures three times with her own eyes, and it seems that it is really difficult to cure.

But this is her dear boss! Such a perfect boss, but now he is so uncomfortable, it makes her feel very uncomfortable to see…

Unexpectedly, at this time, Zhang Shengkang said in his heart again, [If I hadn’t acted, the empress dowager would suffer even longer every year, little emperor, you should know that I am irreplaceable! 】

Hearing this, Yu Wenlan was about to frown, but she heard the sound of hair exploding in Yan Shu’s heart, 【What? How dare this old thief call my old lady’s man like that? ! Only my mother can call the title “Little Emperor”! ! 】

Hmph, what is ‘irreplaceable’?

No, this old thief is simply too arrogant, he must be dealt with properly! She didn’t believe it. Doctor Jiang couldn’t cure the queen mother?

Yu Wenlan also thought so. Judging from past cases, Jiang Nianqi’s medical skills are not inferior to Zhang Shengkang’s, and may not be able to cure the empress dowager’s stubborn illness.

But before he could open his mouth, he could smell the smell of medicine approaching. It turned out that Danshuang, the maid of Ci’an Palace, came to him with the medicine that had just been boiled.

Seeing this scene, Yan Shu hurriedly said, “Let me come.”

After speaking, he stepped forward to take the medicine bowl, sat on the side of the couch, and fed the medicine to the Queen Mother.

While feeding, I couldn’t help but feel distressed in my heart, woo woo woo, this medicine smells bitter, the boss has worked hard for most of his life, why should he suffer this kind of pain, get better soon.

Seeing that the bowl of soup and medicine was finished, the Queen Mother opened her eyes with force, and said to the two, “It’s getting late, Your Majesty, go back and have a rest. Concubine Yi is still pregnant with a dragon heir, so don’t work too hard for Ai’s family.” .”

But Yan Shu said, “The concubine doesn’t have anything important to do, the concubine is not at ease if the empress is like this, so let’s stay with the empress again.”

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and told Zhang Shengkang, “Physician Zhang has also worked hard, let’s go down to eat first.”

Seeing this scene, Zhang Shengkang had no choice but to bow his head and retreat first.

There was no eyesore in the palace for a while, so Yan Shu hurriedly said to the Queen Mother, “I also understand that the empress has always trusted Doctor Zhang, but the prescriptions of the other doctors may be different, or else the doctor Jiang will give you another Shall we take a look?”

But the queen mother sighed, “It’s all the same, the Ai family knows their illness, and there is nothing good to do.”

Seeing this scene, Yu Wenlan also hurriedly said, “My queen, you have seen with your own eyes recently that Doctor Jiang’s medical skills are not necessarily superior to Zhang Shengkang’s. You might as well ask him to try it. Your health is the most important thing.”

Hearing what he said, the Queen Mother finally agreed.

Not long after, the doctor Jiang who had been summoned arrived in a hurry.

After examining the empress dowager’s pulse for a while, she said to the two, “Your Majesty, Yifei empress, judging from the pulse condition, the empress dowager must have a deficiency of the spleen, deficiency of qi and blood, stagnation of liver qi, poor flow of qi and blood, and obstruction of the collaterals. As a result, the Qingyang does not rise, and the head orifice loses its nourishment.”

These words were somewhat professional, and Yan Shu didn’t quite understand them. When she looked at the emperor, she also frowned slightly, as if she didn’t quite understand.

And looking at the queen mother, she was already drowsy, she thought for a while, and simply called the maids to wait on her, and then led the emperor and Jiang Tai doctor to the outside room to talk.

At this time, there were no other people waiting, and she immediately asked Doctor Jiang, “The empress dowager’s disease is a chronic disease. It has recurred every year for many years, and it is very painful. In your opinion, can this disease be eradicated?”

After the words fell, Yu Wenlan also nodded and looked at Doctor Jiang.

—Because they are really thinking about the queen mother, both of them are full of hope at this time.

Unexpectedly, Doctor Jiang bowed his head and said, “I’m going to tell you, it’s true that head wind is not curable, and most of the prescriptions can only alleviate it.”

What?

It was said that the two of them had a meal, so could it be that even the doctor Jiang couldn’t do anything about it?

Yan Shu was very unwilling, and hurriedly asked again, “Isn’t it? You can even cure the poison of aconitum? It’s just a headache, how can it not be cured?”

After the words fell, I saw Doctor Jiang showing a shameful expression and said, “I am disappointed by your incompetence. Usually trauma and acute diseases are relatively easy to treat. The empress dowager’s head wind is an internal disease, and it is an old disease. It’s really not easy to eradicate.”

Yanshu, “…”

Is there really no way to help his big boss?

Just when he was about to be disappointed, he heard Tai Physician Jiang say again, “I had no choice but to cure the poison of the aconite last time. This is the only way. I can only take risks to save people, but others can take risks. How can the empress dowager?” Taking risks easily?”

adventure?

Yan Shu paused, thinking that according to this meaning, there is still a way?

Yu Wenlan had already heard it, thought for a while, and then said, “If there is a way, you can just say it, I know you are well-informed, and you must know more than others.”

As soon as these words came out, Doctor Jiang paused for a moment, and had no choice but to say, “Your Majesty, I do know that there was a famous doctor in the capital called Xun Ji, and he had a book called “Xinglin Supplements”, which recorded many Intractable diseases and good prescriptions for diagnosis and treatment. I was lucky enough to read this book many years ago. I vaguely remembered that there was a cure for his stubborn head. I missed it, and now I only remember a few of the medicines, but I can’t remember all of them, so I don’t dare to treat the empress dowager rashly.”

After the words fell, Yu Wenlan and Yan Shu both had a meal.

Doctor Jiang actually mentioned his own father?

And then, he sighed heavily in his heart, 【If he hadn’t been so playful back then, if he had been more obedient, he wouldn’t have wasted his father’s efforts…】

Yan Shu listened quietly to her ears, thinking that this “Xinglin Supplements” is the secret book stolen by Zhang Shengkang.

But the system suddenly jumped out and interjected, [That’s right, it’s that cheat book. 】

Yan Shu hissed, 【That is to say, Zhang Shengkang has this secret book, which was supposed to cure the empress dowager’s stubborn disease, but he deliberately refused to cure it for the empress dowager? 】

The system let out a snort, [Then he will be cured by the queen mother at once, why should he ask the queen mother to keep using him? 】

Yan Shu couldn’t help scolding that Zhang Shengkang three times as a thief! !

Damn, this dog thief is too hateful! ! How could he treat her like a big boss! She has no conscience at all! !

But at this time, hearing her scolding, Yu Wenlan was equally angry.

——Zhang Shengkang, just like he was to him back then, knew that he could be cured but died, and only wanted to seek credit, it was simply too hateful! !

A villain is indeed a villain, not worthy of half trust.

Of course, after getting angry, he also understood that the most important thing now is how to get this “Xinglin Supplements”.

But at this moment, Yan Shu asked Doctor Jiang, “So, if you can find this “Xinglin Supplements, will you be able to treat the Empress Dowager?”

But saw Jiang Taiyi said, “I should be 90% sure.”

Nine points sure?

Yan Shu raised her eyebrows, knowing that doctors don’t lie easily, and it seems that Doctor Jiang is very hopeful if he can say that.

But at this moment, Yu Wenlan asked Imperial Physician Jiang, “Does the doctor know how to find this book?”

Yan Shu was taken aback for a moment, wondering if this person had forgotten that the book was clearly in Zhang Shengkang’s place!

However, before she could respond, Doctor Jiang said, “I heard that Dr. Xun was slandered by wicked people and died with hatred. That book didn’t know what happened…”

I just heard this, but I heard the other party sigh in my heart, [Forget it, saving people is the most important thing. 】

Yan Shu was taken aback again—

From what this means, is it possible that Imperial Physician Jiang is going to tell about Xun Ji and Zhang Shengkang?

But, isn’t he afraid of exposing his identity change?

This will involve the crime of deceiving the emperor!

No, even though he was sincere, she didn’t put his family in danger.

So she had an idea, and immediately said with an ah, “I have heard about this too! That Dr. Xun is very skilled in medicine and can treat all kinds of difficult and miscellaneous diseases. I heard that Zhang Shengkang is his disciple.”

The voice fell, but seeing Doctor Jiang was stupefied, “… how did the empress know???”

Yu Wenlan, “…”

However, Yan Shu did not answer, but said again, “It seems that the death of Dr. Xun has something to do with Zhang Shengkang, ah, maybe that book is in Zhang Shengkang’s hands now!”

Physician Jiang was stunned again, “Where did you hear about this…”

But before she finished speaking, Yan Shu waved her big hand and said, “Okay, don’t worry about this matter, I and Your Majesty are the ones to decide, you go back and make preparations, and when you find that book, do a good job for the Empress Dowager.” The cure is.”

Doctor Jiang, “???”

Yu Wenlan, “…”

He really couldn’t bear to see Jiang Nianqi’s confused face, so he had no choice but to say, “As Concubine Yi said, just go back and wait. You don’t need to ask any more questions.”

As soon as the words fell, Doctor Jiang finally said yes, bowed to the two of them, and then left.

Yu Wenlan coughed and was about to say something, but Yan Shu hurriedly said to him, “Look, Your Majesty, Zhang Shengkang is too bad. He obviously has a way, but he won’t give the Queen Mother a radical cure. It’s a waste of a doctor. , I am even more sorry for the Queen Mother’s trust in him!”

Yu Wenlan hummed, and was about to speak, but heard her say again, “But the Queen Mother trusts him so much, and she suddenly attacked him at this time, one is afraid that the Queen Mother will be shocked, after all, the Queen Mother can’t stand any sudden incident now. Second, I’m afraid it will scare the snake, and it’s not good to ask him to destroy the secret book. So it’s better to get the secret book first, and treat the empress dowager.”

Yu Wenlan hummed again, and before she could speak, she heard her say again, “The concubine has figured it out, that “Xinglin Supplements” is in the second left shelf on the third floor of the north wall of Zhang Shengkang’s study, Your Majesty I will ask Jin Yiwei to steal it tonight, er, no, it is to bring it back to the original owner.”

Yu Wenlan, “…OK.”

With my concubine here, what can’t be done in this world?

Also, I’m afraid he won’t even need to say anything in the future.
