I am a miracle doctor in Dream of the Red Chamber

On March 19th, in Jingning City, the capital of the Great Yao Dynasty, the incident occurred deep in the valley of Lieyan Mountain in the suburbs of Beijing, in a natural fluorite cave called Qi'an Cave.

After lunch on the 19th, Qi Zhen sat alone in his stone chamber, staring blankly at a rosewood box on the stone table.

His mother, Empress Chen, walked in slowly. Seeing that he was staring at the box in a trance, she gently sat down opposite him and said with a smile, "What are you thinking about? You are so absent-minded!"

Qi Zhen regained his composure and hurriedly stood up to pay his respects to his mother. The queen said hastily, "There are only the two of us here, so please don't be too polite."

Qi Zhen took Empress Chen's hand and said, "Didn't your mother rest after lunch?!"

Empress Chen said gently: "I am not sleepy today, so I wanted to come and chat with you."

Qi Zhen smiled and said, "Okay! Let's chat about family matters."

Empress Chen looked at her son and said with a smile, "Zhen'er was staring at this red sandalwood box just now. What were you thinking about?!"

Qi Zhen opened the rosewood box and said, "Mother, please look!" It turned out that there were three layers in the box.

Queen Chen looked carefully. On the first layer was a golden five-star poison dart, and next to it was a poison needle that looked like an insect's leg. On the second layer was a plate of sweet-scented osmanthus, glutinous rice and lotus root. On the third layer were two exquisite white porcelain gourd bottles. She seemed touched and looked at Qi Zhen quietly and said, "It's not easy to collect these evidences. What are your plans now, Zhen'er?!"

Qi Zhen said with a face full of pain: "Every time I see these physical evidences, I feel deeply terrified. In order to help my sixth brother ascend to the throne, Concubine Mu treated other people's lives as worthless as ants. She was simply so crazy that she was insane."

Empress Chen said with relief: "Now we are just waiting for the perfect opportunity to present these evidences to the Three Law Courts, and this mother and son will be completely finished."

Qi Zhen looked at his mother and said, "Mother! For many years, Concubine Mu has been plotting to kill us. This time, she has been imprisoned in the Purple Palace. Are you happy?!"

Empress Chen said calmly, "As an empress who has accompanied the emperor for many years, I have long seen through the fact that the emperor's grace is like flowing water. I have also seen through the impermanence of the world. All prosperity is just a passing cloud, and it will eventually return to the ordinary and natural. Therefore, I am not happy that Concubine Mu was demoted and imprisoned this time. I just think that they killed loyal people with cruel means. Justice is clear, and it is time for them to stop."

Qi Zhen heard the Queen's words and said in a surprised tone: "No wonder my mother has lived a quiet life for many years and never competed for favor. It turns out that she is so indifferent to fame and gain."

Empress Chen held Qi Zhen's hand and said, "Zhen'er! Everything in this world will change. Especially human hearts, which are the most complex and changeable. So, no matter what you do, you must do your best and be true to your heart."

Qi Zhen nodded and said, "I will remember your mother's teachings! But since I am in the imperial family, although I have maintained my original intention, my opponents will want to kill us all because of our kindness."

Empress Chen said meaningfully: "This is what your mother wants to remind you. You don't need to be merciful to demons. If you give in a little, they will take advantage of you and sneak in!"

Qi Zhen said solemnly: "My son understands! When it is time to fight back, never show any mercy! Eradicate all evil!"

Empress Chen nodded gently and said, "Although the Imperial Concubine was demoted to a Provincial Concubine, Qizhu's position as the Crown Prince is still there. Although An Cheng killed his father and brother, he is still alive. Therefore, it is clear that Your Majesty still has a glimmer of hope for them and does not want to get rid of them as soon as possible."

Qi Zhen asked doubtfully, "Why is this happening between you and your mother?!"

Empress Chen said with great insight: "Because your majesty's only prince is the crown prince, he has no son to rely on. The imperial concubine formed a clique for personal gain, colluded with the Nether City and foreigners, and disrupted the government. Your majesty knows very well that these things cannot be completely separated from the crown prince. But he cannot depose the crown prince casually now. He can only deal with the imperial concubine first, and then continue to observe whether the crown prince is capable of taking on the important task! Your majesty has even decided to kill the mother and keep the son, to give an explanation to the subjects of the world!"

Qi Zhen said calmly: "My mother knows my father very well. If my father knew that you were still alive and personally invited you to return to the palace, would you be willing to go back?!"
