Quick Wear: The Stunning Beauty is Forbidden to Be Pampered
Chapter 52 World 1: The Domineering Emperor’s Pet (50)
Zhou Changling: "Send Judge Zhang in to answer the question."
Although Zhou Changling tried his best to persuade himself to let go of Bai Lingxi, he still couldn't help but care about everything about her. Now he was told that she might never wake up. How could he not be anxious?
Judge Zhang had been waiting at the door for a long time. Now that he received the order, he immediately went in to respond.
Judge Zhang: "Your Highness Prince Jing is greeted by your humble servant Zhang Yuan."
Zhang Yuanpan bowed respectfully to Zhou Changling. Seeing that he was honest and did not seem to be scheming, Zhou Changling did not embarrass him but asked directly.
Zhou Changling: "What happened to Concubine Rong? Is there anything wrong with your body?"
Zhou Changling's eyes flashed coldly, as if he would execute the imperial physician if he did not get a satisfactory answer.
Seeing this, Judge Zhang was shocked and frightened, but he did not dare to say anything nonsense to save his life. He looked like he was going to die bravely, but he chose to tell the truth.
Judge Zhang said: "Your Highness, the Queen's pulse is stable and there is nothing wrong with her body, but she is in a coma. I have read an ancient book that records similar cases. I dare not speak nonsense. I hope Your Highness will forgive me."
Seeing that he did not look like he was lying, Zhou Changling knew that what he said might be true, but how could that be?
Such a beautiful woman died just like that. Whenever he thought of this scene, he felt so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe.
Zhou Changling remained silent. Everyone in the hall felt suffocated by his powerful aura. Zhang Yuanpan even thought he was dead. Beads of sweat rolled down his forehead to the ground.
After a while, Zhou Changling finally said, "Let the other imperial doctors go with you to the palace to treat the patient."
Zhou Changling's order did not specify how he would be punished for dereliction of duty. Zhang Yuanpan finally put his mind at ease and kowtowed to express his gratitude.
It was not until he walked out of the Taiji Hall that Zhang Yuanpan felt like he was alive again. He hastily wiped the sweat off his face with a handkerchief. Just now it was like the Hall of Yama, where his head could fall to the ground at any time. It was so thrilling.
Zhou Changling waited until everyone left before he covered his heart. His face was bitter, and even the tip of his tongue was bitter: Didn't we agree to let her go free? Why did he lose control of himself when he heard about her? If something really happened to her, he would probably go crazy.
This mood lasted for several days. Because there was no good news outside the palace, Zhou Changling was extremely upset. Could it be that Bai Lingxi really could not wake up?
Finally, on the sixth day, which was the day when his father's body was kept in the funeral palace, Zhou Changling personally took Bai Lingxi back to the palace. Even if she died, she wanted to die in front of him.
The sun was shining brightly on the day Zhou Changling set out. Despite the disapproving gazes of many court officials, Zhou Changling still set out. The reason he gave was very genuine: his father had shown him in a dream that he wanted to see the daughter of the Bai family, so he asked him to take her to see him off for the last time.
Seeing that others wanted to say something, Zhou Changling glanced at them coldly. Everyone was shocked by his gaze and did not dare to stop them.
After Zhou Changling left, everyone else looked at the Princess of Jing, who had not been able to speak to King Jing just now, and their eyes changed.
Princess Jing, also known as Zhao Xueqi, was extremely angry when she saw the questioning or gloating eyes of the crowd. She didn't expect Zhou Changling to be so disrespectful to her. He didn't even pay attention to what she said just now. For a moment, her prestige was completely gone. What could she use to negotiate with the ladies in the future?
Zhao Xueqi never thought about how she, as the queen, would be able to convince the people in the future. Even if she really sat on the throne of the queen, a queen without family, without favor, and without virtue would be a huge joke!
“Princess Jing, do we still need to continue?” Li Mu did not let this situation last too long. After all, this was a major event of mourning for the emperor. If something went wrong, where would the royal family’s reputation be?
Li Mu said this just to remind Zhao Xueqi not to lose her sense of proportion.
Li Mu's words still carry a lot of weight, and the others are all shrewd characters as well. If King Jing doesn't give face to the princess again, it is an internal matter of the royal family, and it is also the family affair of King Jing who is about to succeed to the throne. It is better not to interfere.
No matter how unwilling Zhao Xueqi was, she knew that Li Mu was helping her to establish her authority, so she quickly said yes and obediently knelt down and continued to cry. However, the moment she lowered her head, her eyes were filled with resentment and unwillingness.

Palace.
When Zhou Changling arrived, almost all the imperial physicians of the Imperial Medical Bureau gathered in Luanfei Pavilion.
Zhang Yu was the young imperial physician who helped Bai Lingxi with her pregnancy. Later, Zhou Jin felt that he was not steady enough and replaced him with Zhang Yuan, the court official.
Zhang Yu had sharp eyesight. He spotted Zhou Changling at a glance and was the first to react.
Zhang Yu: "I, Zhang Yu, pay my respects to His Majesty King Jing."
The other doctors also reacted and bowed: "Your humble servant greets His Royal Highness Prince Jing."
Zhou Changling raised his hand to signal them to excuse themselves from the formalities, and then asked in a deep voice, "How is Concubine Rong?"
In fact, according to reason, Zhou Changling should call her mother, but Zhou Changling himself had some unclear feelings towards Bai Lingxi, so how could he call her mother?
Naturally, other people would not be stupid enough to remind him. After all, the most important thing for a subject is to learn to play dumb and see things without saying them out loud.
As for the questions Zhou Changling raised, the imperial doctors were stumped because Concubine Rong was still unconscious and they could not find the cause.
Finally, it was Judge Zhang who stood up and said, "Your Highness, it is my incompetence that has prevented me from finding out why the Queen is in a coma."
Zhou Changling glanced at everyone like this. The imperial doctors who were glanced at lowered their heads and dared not speak, for fear of being questioned by King Jing.
Until Zhou Changling's eyes swept over Zhang Yu, Zhang Yu did not close his eyes or avoid them, but looked confident or calm.
Zhou Changling: "You speak."
Zhang Yu: "In my humble opinion, the queen will wake up soon."
Zhang Yu’s words aroused Zhou Changling’s interest. Could it be that he was really sure?
Zhou Changling asked him to continue: "If you deceive me, you should know what will happen to you."
Zhang Yu: "I know I am not very knowledgeable, but the Empress' pulse is strong and the little prince is not in any danger. I believe that the Empress Rong will wake up soon."
Zhang Yu's voice was neither hurried nor slow, and he seemed very confident. Zhou Changling looked at him with a dark look in his eyes, because Bai Lingxi had not woken up yet, and everything was just empty talk. Zhang Yu's words could not make him feel at ease at all.
Zhou Changling: "Since you are so sure, go back to the palace and check the pulse of Concubine Rong. If she can't wake up, you should stay awake too."
Zhou Changling left these words and walked towards the inner room.
The other imperial doctors looked at Zhang Yu as if he were a fool, some expressed pity, while others felt happy and gloat over his misfortune. However, Zhang Yu looked towards the inner room, ignoring the looks of others.
