The Doctor's Concubine: Don't mess with the evil princess

After the beginning of autumn, the weather became increasingly cold. Jiang had several headaches in the house. Mu Xun invited the best doctors in the palace, but Jiang's headaches did not get better...

Mu Xun didn't know that although Jiang had a headache, it was actually a heart disease. People say that heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine. Without the right medicine, how can the disease be cured?

Mu Xun didn't know what the reason was, and he was also confused...

Later, it was only after Eunuch Xia mentioned it intentionally or unintentionally that Mu Xun finally found the reason for Jiang's headache.

It has been raining since the beginning of autumn, and Empress Dowager Jiang in the palace fell ill for some reason. At first, she just had a slight cough. She asked the imperial physician to see her, who said that she was old and had a weak constitution, and had caught a cold. She would be fine after taking some medicine to dispel the cold and relieve the symptoms.

Queen Mother Jiang is old, but she still likes to act up. According to the palace servants who served her closely, the Queen Mother thought the medicine was too bitter and didn't drink a single sip...

Within two days, the Queen Mother's condition became even worse. She even had a fever at night, and several palace maids who served her closely also had similar symptoms.

The eunuch Liu who served her felt that this was not right and immediately reported it to the emperor.

Although the emperor was not the biological son of Empress Dowager Jiang, he was raised by her. The empress dowager was unable to give birth to a son, so she treated the emperor better than her own son.

After hearing what Eunuch Liu said, the emperor immediately climbed up from the bed, causing Concubine Xiao to complain, "The Empress Dowager is really something. She didn't get sick earlier or later, but at this very moment! Your Majesty hasn't let me sleep with you for a long time. Tonight..."

Concubine Xiao suddenly stopped talking because she saw that the emperor's face looked wrong.

"My beauty, stop making up stories about the empress dowager. I'll be back soon!" The emperor felt guilty and was busy coaxing Concubine Xiao.

"Your Majesty, please don't lie to me!" Concubine Xiao pouted and said pitifully.

"Hmm~" The emperor closed his eyes and nodded, then put on his clothes and followed Eunuch Liu to Shoukang Palace.

There were constant coughing sounds in Shoukang Palace. Empress Dowager Jiang looked extremely bad, her pale face was bloodless. She closed her eyes and groaned once or twice from time to time. The imperial physician was treating the patient, and there were two other imperial physicians accompanying him.

After the imperial physician finished the diagnosis, he looked at the other two imperial physicians, and the other two nodded at the same time to indicate that they agreed with his idea.

"What's the matter? What kind of disease is it?" the emperor asked anxiously.

The doctor who was treating the emperor looked at him with an embarrassed look on his face. He whispered, "Your Majesty, may I have a word with you?"

The emperor nodded and went out with several imperial doctors!

"Doctor Zhang, you are an old man. What disease did the empress dowager suffer from?" the emperor asked again.

"Your Majesty, it's an epidemic!" Doctor Zhang replied solemnly.

The emperor's face changed drastically. He covered his mouth and nose involuntarily, and then looked at the other two imperial doctors!

"Your Majesty, it is just as Imperial Doctor Zhang said, this is an epidemic. I also took the pulses of several palace maids, and they had the same symptoms as the Empress Dowager!"

"Your Majesty, the only solution now is to temporarily close Shoukang Palace. All palace servants are not allowed to go out, and daily food, clothing and other necessities can only be delivered to the door by people outside!" Doctor Zhang suggested.

The emperor was helpless and sighed. He called the eunuch Liu, the manager of Shoukang Palace, and ordered him to close Shoukang Palace from now on. In order to avoid causing panic, no one in Shoukang Palace is allowed to tell anyone about what happened here. If I know that anyone leaked a word, I will cut off his head!

"I obey your command!" Eunuch Liu replied tremblingly.

"Your Majesty, the prescription for treating epidemics has been lost in the palace for a long time. We have to go back and study it carefully. I have prescribed some medicine to dispel the cold, and the Empress Dowager must take it!" Doctor Zhang warned.

"Did you hear that, Eunuch Liu?" the emperor said with a sullen face.

Eunuch Liu was so excited by the emperor's words that his legs became weak and he trembled. "Slave, slave heard it!"

"Take good care of the empress dowager, I will come again tomorrow!" After the emperor said this, he left Shoukang Palace with several imperial doctors.

Naturally, the emperor did not dare to go to Concubine Xiao again. After leaving Shoukang Palace, he went straight to the imperial study. It would be best not to see anyone now!

……

Jiang family has been working hard for Mu Baiying's marriage. Jiang family is optimistic about the third prince who has lost his biological mother to become king. He is weak and ambitious, and needs help from the outside world, so he can be easily manipulated.

These days she has been looking for an opportunity to let Prince Cheng and Mu Baiying meet. She originally wanted to ask her aunt the Queen Mother for help, but Shoukang Palace was suddenly sealed and she didn't know what happened inside?

No news could be obtained from inside. Even if she was like an ant on hot pot, it was of no avail. The palace servants all kept their mouths shut and she couldn't get any useful information out of them!

If it weren't for that big mouth Eunuch Xia who accidentally let the cat out of the bag, she probably wouldn't know what had happened until now!

Upon hearing that the Queen Mother had contracted the plague, Jiang immediately became anxious. The Queen Mother was the supporter of her Jiang family. If she fell, the Jiang family would suffer heavy losses!

"Madam! Just relax! The Empress Dowager is blessed by heaven. There are so many doctors in the palace who can definitely cure her illness!" Mu Xun comforted Jiang while rubbing her temples.

"How did Aunt Empress Dowager get infected with the plague?" Jiang asked in confusion, holding her headband.

Mu Xun sighed softly: "After all, the Queen Mother is an elderly person, it is normal for her to be a little weak!"

Jiang shook her head, her face showing worry. "It has been a long time since there has been an epidemic in the palace. The prescription for treating epidemics was lost many years ago. If we wait for the imperial physician to research the prescription now, considering the Queen Mother's health... I'm afraid..."

She paused for a moment, then continued, "Master, why not... why not let Lan Feng give it a try!"

Jiang's voice became noticeably softer, as she was afraid that Mu Xun would not agree.

"No, absolutely not!" Mu Xun refused flatly.

Jiang's face darkened and she complained in a low voice, "Why can't it be done? She doesn't want her life, and the master is protecting her so much!"

Mu Xun stopped what he was doing and said earnestly, "Madam, have you ever thought about this? If Lan Feng can cure the Queen Mother's illness, it will be fine. But if she fails or the Queen Mother... this will affect the survival of the entire Mu Mansion!"

"But..." Jiang was still unwilling.

"Madam, don't say anything. I will not agree! What ability can a girl like her have?" Mu Xun didn't care about Jiang's feelings at all.

Seeing Mu Xun's resolute eyes, Jiang didn't say anything else, but she didn't know how many times she cursed him in her heart!

The survival, prosperity, decline, honor and disgrace of the Mu family have nothing to do with her, Jiang!

All she wants is for her and her daughter to be well, and no one else has anything to do with her!
