After all the idlers left, only Emperor Jingxuan and Xiao Chonghua were left in the imperial study.

Among the many sons of Emperor Jingxuan, the eldest son Xiao Duye had the greatest real power—Associate Guards, the second son Xiao Jinyan had the highest official position—as the imperial envoy of Youzhou, and the third son Xiao Chonghua was not the most highly regarded.

The reason why he was proposed to be married to the Qin family was because the eldest prince and the second prince were already married, and it was impossible for the daughter of the Duke Huguo's mansion to bring military power to the prince as a side concubine.

As for the next few younger brothers, either their mother and concubine's family background is not enough, or they are too young to be suitable.

From outsiders' point of view, Xiao Chonghua knew how much Emperor Jingxuan loved him.

He won't think that his father loves him just because this marriage fell on him.

To put it bluntly, his father just had no choice.

Emperor Jingxuan said: "Qin Yanran and your elder brother had such an incident. Although it was an accident, it also made you feel wronged."

Xiao Chonghua didn't speak.

At this time, if I want to say that I am not wronged at all, it seems to be angry.

Next, Xiao Chonghua had already guessed what Emperor Jingxuan wanted to say to him.

If it was her—

Emperor Jingxuan said lightly: "The wedding between you and the Qin family was originally scheduled to be in May, but now it's April..."

Xiao Chonghua said sternly: "Father, she has already married in the countryside, does Father want my son to marry a married woman?"

Emperor Jingxuan said indifferently: "If you have someone you like, you can accept him as a side concubine."

"Father..."

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

Eunuch Quan walked over in a hurry, "There is something wrong! The Queen Mother... fainted!"

Emperor Jingxuan's expression changed: "What!"

The Empress Dowager suddenly fell into a coma, and many imperial physicians headed by Hu Jiusheng gathered in Yongshou Palace to urgently discuss the treatment plan.

Emperor Jingxuan entered the Queen Mother's bedroom with a majestic expression.

Looking at the haggard queen mother on the phoenix bed, Emperor Jingxuan's aura became extremely cold.

"What's going on? Didn't the queen mother get better?"

The imperial physicians were all silent, not daring to say anything.

Hu Jiusheng emboldened himself, cupped his hands and said, "Returning to Your Majesty, after I changed the prescription for the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager's illness has indeed improved—"

Emperor Jingxuan said in a deep voice, "Then why did you faint suddenly?"

Hu Jiusheng was also puzzled, but he couldn't show it, otherwise people would doubt his medical skills.

He cupped his hands and said, "Here... Please Rong Weichen take the Queen Mother's pulse carefully."

Emperor Jingxuan suppressed his anger and agreed to Doctor Hu's request.

Hu Jiusheng took the pulse with a perplexed expression on his face.

"What's the matter?" Emperor Jingxuan asked.

Hu Jiusheng bit the bullet and said: "The queen mother... is too worried..."

Emperor Jingxuan's voice sank: "I'm too worried, I'm too worried, can you say anything else besides this?! You are an imperial doctor. I called you here to cure the empress dowager's illness, no? Let you perfuse me with a sentence of worrying too much all day long!"

The emperor's emotions were a little abnormal.

Doctor Hu is a bit wronged to be true.

In a few days it will be the death day of King Nanyang. In what year will the Empress Dowager not suffer from an illness?

It's all due to missing Nanyang King.

As the saying goes, a heart disease must be treated with heart medicine. The queen mother is indulging in the pain of losing her eldest son. What can they do as imperial doctors?

If you want to ask why you survived in the past but can't be cured this time, it's not because the queen mother is aging, her body is not as good as before, and she will be more dangerous every year in the future.

And Emperor Jingxuan knew that the queen mother had a heart disease, so he became even more angry.

It was he who killed the King of Nanyang, and it was he who made the Empress Dowager suffer from heart disease. Apart from missing her eldest son, the Empress Dowager also hated his youngest son every day.

"I don't care what you can do, if you can't cure the queen mother, you all come to see her!"

Emperor Jingxuan said coldly, and left in a huff.

"How can this be done?"

An imperial physician asked in a low voice.

"My lord, what can you do?"

another doctor asked.

Hu Jiusheng thought to himself, if only I had a way.

"It's really not that I'm not good at medicine, it's really..." An imperial physician halfway through his words, was glared at by Hu Jiusheng, and swallowed wisely.

Hu Jiusheng returned to the Imperial Hospital, and found a yellowed manuscript from a pile of old medical books.

This handbook was left by Imperial Physician Fu back then, and it recorded many acupuncture methods for difficult and miscellaneous diseases. He studied carefully for half an hour and found that one of the acupuncture methods may relieve the Empress Dowager's symptoms.

It's just that this acupuncture method is dangerous, and Imperial Physician Fu wrote it clearly - those who are unwell, or have the opposite effect.

"Now there is no other way. If you can't cure the Queen Mother, you will be dead anyway."

The strength of Hu Jiusheng lies in his boldness and daring to try.

He went to Yongshou Palace and used the acupuncture and moxibustion skills of Imperial Physician Fu. After a quarter of an hour, Empress Dowager really woke up, feeling hungry after waking up, and even drank half a bowl of rice porridge.

This made the palace people very happy.

There is an appetite, which means that it is getting better!

Hu Jiu let out a sigh of relief, the head of the item was finally saved.

It's just that he didn't have time to be happy for too long, the Queen Mother's situation took a turn for the worse in the evening, and she suddenly lost her hearing!

The person is awake, but cannot hear any sound, accompanied by symptoms of dizziness, nausea and vomiting.

The whole hospital panicked.

Hu Jiusheng was even more flustered. He expected that the acupuncture technique had failed. It wasn't that his technique was bad, but that this acupuncture technique didn't work for everyone.

In case of side effects, it will be irreversible.

Emperor Jingxuan looked at several imperial physicians kneeling on the ground, with a murderous look in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, the Third Highness is asking to see you." Eunuch Fu reported in a low voice.

"What is he here for?" Emperor Jingxuan didn't want to see him.

"It seems to be because of the Queen Mother's illness." Eunuch Fu said.

Emperor Jingxuan said impatiently, "Let him in."

The little eunuch brought Xiao Chonghua into the empress dowager's bedroom.

Xiao Chonghua didn't talk nonsense, and said straight to the point: "Father, I want to recommend a doctor."

Emperor Jingxuan asked, "A doctor among the people?"

Xiao Chonghua said: "Yes, this doctor has excellent medical skills, he is not under the imperial physician, and may be able to treat the illness of the emperor's grandmother."

Emperor Jingxuan didn't trust folk doctors very much. After all, the best medical skills were all in the Tai Hospital.

But now the Tai Hospital is helpless——

Emperor Jingxuan said, "Who?"

Xiao Chonghua said seriously: "Daughter of Duke Hu, Su Daya."

At the gate of Yongshou Palace, Xiao Chonghua met Princess Jingning who came with the queen to serve her sick.

"Mother's queen." Xiao Chonghua saluted respectfully.

The queen nodded and stepped into the Yongshou Palace.

"Third brother." Princess Jingning stopped him, "I heard that when you were in Qingzhou, you were dying of illness, and Miss Su cured you."

Xiao Chonghua nodded: "There is such a thing."

Princess Jingning asked in a cold voice: "Then do you know that if she can't cure grandma, she will be angered by her father? Father is worried that she has no excuse to deal with Su Cheng, so you will be given the blame."
