Inside Hanzhang Hall, the atmosphere is dignified.

The imperial physicians gathered around the bed to diagnose and treat the emperor.

The queen mother was very anxious, but she didn't dare to interrupt the work of the imperial doctors, so she could only keep pacing back and forth.

Concubine Zhen, Crown Princes Li Qiong, Concubine Shu, and Fifth Prince Li Yi also came.

They all stood quietly by the side, waiting for the diagnosis results of the imperial physicians.

After waiting for a long time, I saw the imperial doctors standing up straight.

The Queen Mother asked impatiently.

"How is the emperor's condition?"

The faces of the imperial doctors are not very good-looking.

The leading imperial physician Ling stepped forward and responded respectfully.

"Returning to the Empress Dowager, His Majesty's condition is very serious, the internal organs of the abdomen have begun to fail, and it is difficult to treat it with ordinary methods.

For now, we can only try the last blind prescription.

The effect of this prescription is very strong, and it may stimulate His Majesty's viscera to rejuvenate.

But it comes with great risks, and a little carelessness may make His Majesty's condition worse.

I don't know whether I should use this medicine or not, so I asked the Empress Dowager to give her an idea. "

For a moment, everyone in the room looked at the Queen Mother.

The Empress Dowager's complexion turned slightly pale.

Even though she has experienced many storms, she has never encountered such a predicament.

Lying on the bed was her only son, the sweetheart who was born with great difficulty after she was pregnant in October.

If something happened to him, how would she live in the future?

The empress dowager was in such a state of confusion that she couldn't make up her mind.

At this moment, Concubine Zhen opened her mouth.

She asked the doctor's order.

"What's the worst result after using strong medicine?"

The Imperial Physician Ling replied honestly: "I dare not hide my mother, the worst result is death on the spot."

When the Queen Mother heard this, her heart jumped and she said loudly.

"Can't!"

The imperial doctor's order reminded: "But if you don't use strong medicine, it will not exceed three days at most, and your majesty will..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but everyone present understood what he meant.

The emperor is very ill, and he has only the last three days left.

If he cannot be cured within three days, all that awaits him is death.

The queen mother was furious: "If the emperor dies, all of you must be buried with him!"

Everyone present knelt down and begged in unison.

"The Empress Dowager, please forgive me!"

The queen mother vented at them, and finally calmed down a little.

Concubine Zhen spoke up in a timely manner to comfort her.

"The empress dowager, don't be angry. Now the safety of the saint is all tied to you alone. The more critical this moment is, the more you must be calm and calm, and don't get confused."

Her voice was soft and gentle, and what she said made sense.

After listening to the Queen Mother, she really calmed down a lot.

She walked to the bedside, looked at the unconscious emperor, hesitated again and again, and began to speak.

"What do you think of this matter?"

Concubine Zhen was the first to answer: "This concubine is just a girl with little knowledge, and all concubine obeys the orders of the queen mother."

She took the lead in giving a standard answer, and the others immediately followed suit and followed suit.

Li Qiong: "All the grandchildren listen to the emperor's grandmother."

Concubine Shu: "The concubine always listens to the Queen Mother."

Li Yi: "The same applies to grandchildren, they all listen to the emperor's grandmother."

Queen Mother: "..."

The question was thrown out, circled around and finally came back to her.

The queen mother knew very well that they were deliberately prevaricating.

This matter is related to the life and death of the emperor, and the responsibility is so great that no one wants to touch it.

The queen mother cursed these useless things in her heart, and she couldn't count on any of them at the critical moment.

She gave Zuo Ji instructions.

"Pass the order of Ai's family, let the left and right prime ministers enter the palace immediately, there must be no mistakes!"

"Here!"

Zuo Ji hurried out to convey the Queen Mother's order.

The two prime ministers were both old foxes. After learning the news that the emperor was seriously ill, they secretly speculated that the emperor would not recover this time.

Now the Empress Dowager suddenly summoned the two of them into the palace, saying that they had important matters to discuss.

They immediately thought of the emperor's condition.

Prime Minister Zuo and Prime Minister Right left the house in a hurry and took a carriage to the palace.

The two happened to bump into each other at the gate of the palace, exchanged a tacit look, and before they had time to exchange greetings, they were led by the eunuch and hurried away to Hanzhang Hall.

The queen mother has been waiting for a long time.

When she learned that the two prime ministers were coming, she immediately called them in.

Even though the two prime ministers were mentally prepared, their hearts still skipped a beat when they saw the dying emperor with their own eyes.

The emperor's condition was far worse than they expected!

Both of them felt a little flustered.

However, what made them even more flustered was yet to come.

"Aijia's heart is really in a mess, and he can't think calmly.

Both of them are the pillars of the country, the right-hand men of the emperor, and the emperor trusts them extremely.

I can only ask the two of you for help in this matter.

I also hope that the two of you will not disappoint the Ai family and the emperor. "

After the queen mother finished her last sentence, she stared closely at the two prime ministers in front of her, apparently not wanting to give them a chance to shirk.

The two prime ministers on the left and right suddenly felt a kind of dumb eating coptis, feeling aggrieved with indescribable suffering.

In fact, they knew very well in their hearts that the strong medicine given to the emperor must be used.

Because that was the emperor's only chance of survival.

But this matter is accompanied by huge risks. A little carelessness will kill the emperor, and when it is investigated afterwards, the person who made the decision will be pushed out to take the blame.

The Queen Mother herself couldn't bear this cruelty, so she dumped this hot potato to the two prime ministers.

The two tried to find excuses to shirk.

But no matter what they said, the queen mother did not give them a chance to refuse, she was determined to let them take advantage of this.

There is no way, the two prime ministers can only pretend to discuss, and then said to the queen mother.

"After discussing with the ministers and others, I think we can invite Dr. Si Tiantai Zhili from Honglu Temple to come and do a fortune-telling, so that God can decide whether to use this strong medicine or not.

The sage is the son of heaven, blessed by God, presumably God will be able to give the most suitable answer. "

The Empress Dowager looked at them expressionlessly, unable to speak for a long time.

When this matter reached Hua Manman's ears, it was already dark.

She was leaning against the window, very happy.

"One thing to say, those two old foxes are really cunning, and they actually used God as a shield when they came to a critical moment.

If I were the queen mother, I would definitely be pissed off by those two old foxes. "

The sanhua cat squatted outside the window, making a low meow.

"According to the hexagrams calculated by Dr. Si Tiantai Zhili, it shows that it is a great ominous, ten deaths and nine lives."

Hua Manman gradually put away her smile: "The queen mother is almost desperate."

At this time, the queen mother was really desperate.

She raised her hand to sweep the teacup off the table, and said angrily with red eyes.

"Why is it like this? The emperor is the Son of Heaven, and he is blessed by the heavens. How could the calculated hexagram be a great evil? The Ai family doesn't believe it! You recalculate it for the Ai family!"
