Going to Beijing to save his father, all the powerful officials in the city are vying to be his fath

Prince Liang frowned slightly as he looked at the queen's back. He couldn't tell what the queen was thinking at this moment.

He agreed to let the queen enter the palace. Although the Duke of Lu's Mansion was not in his camp and posed a great threat to him, the queen was just a woman. A woman who could not see her family after entering the palace posed no threat to him. On the contrary, he could use the queen to alienate the relationship between the emperor and the Duke of Lu's Mansion.

Ever since the Queen entered the palace, her presence has been very low. He always thought that the Queen was easy to control, but judging from her attitude today, she didn't seem to be easy to control.

King Liang narrowed his eyes slightly. It seemed that some things should be done earlier.

What was the queen thinking about? She was thinking about her own future and the future of the Duke of Lu's Mansion.

From the moment her family sent her to the palace, she knew her mission. Although she was reluctant, she took on her mission from the moment she agreed to enter the palace.

Her life and her glory belong not only to her, but also to her family.

Recently, in order to have a child, she put aside her noble lady's reserve and tried her best to cooperate with the emperor in sex, but she still has not become pregnant.

After hearing the news yesterday that the emperor was going to take a concubine, she felt desolate. She felt that she was going to be abandoned. Not only she but also her family would be abandoned if she could not conceive a child. In order to get her the position of queen, her grandfather had retired and his father only took a sinecure.

If she cannot secure her position as queen, or if she has no children, the entire Duke of Lu's Mansion will gradually decline, and may even be liquidated out of fear.

However, she had no way to deal with the foreseeable things that were happening. She knew that the emperor was not to blame. He had tried very hard and had been resting with her frequently recently. It was her problem that he had not been able to get pregnant.

Neither she nor the emperor could stop the selection of concubines. She did not sleep well last night. Just when she was feeling sad, she learned that the emperor had fainted.

When she first heard the news, she had the same idea as King Liang. They couldn't believe it. The emperor was still young and full of energy, so how could he suddenly fall into a coma?

Liu Jin asked her to find a way to stop the ministers who wanted to see the emperor, especially Prince Liang. Originally, she didn't want to come. The harem was not allowed to interfere in politics, and she didn't want to get involved in these things. She was afraid that the emperor would wake up and blame her for meddling in other people's affairs. After all, the emperor and Prince Liang had a very good relationship. She believed that if the emperor asked to choose between her and Prince Liang, he would choose Prince Liang without hesitation.

But Liu Jin's words reminded her: "Your Majesty, if something happens to the Emperor, Prince Liang is the most likely to inherit the throne."

Yes, the late emperor had no offspring, and among the remaining princes, only Prince Liang was the most qualified to inherit the throne. They were husband and wife, and if something happened to the emperor, it meant that something would happen to her as well. Who in the harem would allow a empress dowager who had no children from the late emperor to live?

Before the Queen entered the palace, the man she most wanted to marry was Prince Liang, who was not only elegant and kind, but also loyal. She envied Prince Liang's wife very much.

She didn't believe that Prince Liang would do anything improper while the emperor was unconscious, but she was the queen now and was on the opposite side of Prince Liang. Even though she admired Prince Liang, she had to be on guard against him.

At this time, looking at the towering roofs in the distance, the queen was thinking of a plan. It would be best if the emperor could wake up, but what if the emperor could not wake up? She had to find a way to notify her grandfather and let her grandfather find a way to control the situation and not let King Liang take the opportunity to usurp power.

Time passed little by little, and after a long time, Jin Tong and Zhao Liangchen arrived with a large number of imperial guards. Zou Tai sent someone to notify them because he was afraid that something might happen and he would not be able to handle it.

Jin Tong has been in a bad mood for a long time because he was dissatisfied with Zhao Liangchen's rise to power and let Zhao Liangchen do whatever he wanted. But today's matter is too big, and Jin Tong did not dare to leave the safety of the palace to Zhao Liangchen, so he brought people here in person.

They first paid their respects to the Queen before bowing to Prince Liang. The Queen did not say anything, but just nodded slightly. She didn't know which of these imperial guards were reliable and which were not, but she knew that the Emperor had a good relationship with Zou Tai and Zhao Liangchen, so she said nothing.

King Liang looked at Zhao Liangchen, only to see Zhao Liangchen nod slightly at him. Most of the people he brought had secretly defected to King Liang. King Liang felt relieved and nodded at Zhao Liangchen with great satisfaction.

Jin Tong looked rather anxious. He did not feel comfortable asking the Queen, so he had to ask Zou Tai. However, Zou Tai knew nothing about any of the questions.

There was no other way, so Jin Tong could only take his men to surround the emperor's bedroom in several layers.

Some time later, the director of the Imperial Hospital came out of the bedroom with the imperial physicians. Everyone looked at the director. He tilted his head slightly to glance at Prince Liang before reporting to the Empress, "Your Majesty, the Emperor is in a coma because of excessive worry and the high fever caused by the cold."

The Queen's voice was inevitably a little anxious at this time: "Is there anything serious?"

The court official shook his head and said, "Your Majesty is still young and in good health. I will prescribe some medicine to reduce your fever and you will be fine. However, Your Majesty is overly worried and depressed. If you don't address it in time, it will affect your health."

The Empress was somewhat bewildered. Was the Emperor worried? What was he worried about? Was he also worried about his offspring?

The queen felt a little guilty in an instant. Yesterday, she felt that the emperor had abandoned her and the Duke of Lu's Mansion. She tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. She felt that she was in great pain, but she didn't expect that the emperor was in even more pain than her and was actually sick.

The Queen asked no more questions and stepped into the bedroom. Prince Liang looked at Yuan Zheng and asked with concern, "When will the Emperor wake up?"

The court official said: "Your Highness, the Emperor will wake up once the fever subsides."

The two exchanged glances tacitly, and the director of the hospital took the imperial doctors to prescribe medicine for the emperor.

Zhao Liangchen did not miss the eye contact between the two of them, and his heart sank. There was something wrong with the Imperial Medical Bureau, so how many of his doctors could be reliable?

Prince Liang looked at Grand Tutor Yan and the others at the bottom of the stairs and said, "Since the emperor is fine, let's not disturb his rest here. Let's go back first."

Grand Tutor Yan also felt that the emperor became ill because he was worried about his offspring. This was a heart disease and could not be rushed. As long as the emperor had an offspring as soon as possible, he would naturally recover without medication.

The three of them looked at each other and nodded and left. It was useless for them to be here. It would be better for them to go back and take a good look at the list of concubines to be selected, so as to select the concubines who would enter the palace as soon as possible and give birth to offspring for the emperor as soon as possible.

Prince Liang also left. He would not do anything while the emperor was unconscious, as that would bring him infamy for the rest of his life, and all his previous years of forbearance would be wasted.

The throne he wants is for the emperor to be unworthy of the position and to give up the throne voluntarily. It doesn't matter. He won't have to wait long. If those concubines enter the palace and still have no offspring, then the emperor's throne will naturally be unstable.

But before leaving, he glanced at Zhao Liangchen. Zhao Liangchen gave him a reassuring look, and only then did he leave with peace of mind.

After everyone had left, Zhao Liangchen finally had the chance to pull Zou Tai aside and ask, "What happened? Why is the emperor unconscious?"

Zou Tai said innocently, "It was your letter that caused the Emperor to faint after reading it. I didn't dare to call for the imperial physician, so I had to drain his blood to revive him. But the Emperor wanted the imperial physician sent for, so I stood at the door in the breeze without even putting on my coat, and ended up with a high fever."

Zhao Liangchen gasped and looked at Zou Tai in disbelief: "How dare you hurt the dragon body?"

Zou Tai felt wronged: "What else can I do? You don't know how scared I am. I'm afraid the emperor won't wake up."

Zhao Liangchen had a complicated expression. He knew that the emperor would be angry and excited after reading the letter, but he didn't expect that the emperor would faint from anger.

Zou Tai asked worriedly, "What should we do next?"

Zhao Liangchen thought for a moment and said, "This isn't a bad thing. The Emperor's illness will cause Prince Liang to relax his vigilance. He might make other arrangements in the palace. Don't leave the palace these days and keep a close eye on the changes in the palace."

Seeing that Zou Tai was not happy, he added, "I will go back and ask Su Qin to design a set of jewelry for your mother and sister."

Zou Tai's eyes lit up: "It's a deal. Don't worry, I'm here. Even if a male fly turns into a female fly, I won't let it go."
