Yong Zhang knelt beside the bed, gritting his teeth to hold back his tears.

But the tears could not stop at all.

But the strangeness in the other person, the strange look that flashed across his face, made Qingying feel no sympathy for him at this moment.

The imperial concubine's imminent death is naturally a big deal.

Hongli came very quickly, and when he entered the room, he still had an expression of disbelief on his face.

"Your Majesty, I would like to send you my regards."

Qingying stood up, her voice choked with sobs.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Chun..."

As soon as Qingying finished speaking, Yongzhang, who had been holding back his tears for a long time, seemed unable to control his sadness anymore.

Then he burst into tears.

"Father Emperor, my mother has fainted. Will she... never wake up again...?"

It’s a pity that Yongzhang’s crying did not change Hongli’s expression.

"Has the imperial physician arrived? How come he was fine a few days ago, but suddenly...?"

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Xun followed Xiu Xia into the room.

"Your humble servant pays respects to the Emperor and the Empress."

"Doctor Zhang, go and see Concubine Chun immediately to find out what's wrong."

Without Hongli saying anything, Qingying gave the orders first.

Zhang Xun stepped forward, took the patient's pulse for a moment, then turned back and took out the silver needle.

The diagnosis and treatment took just a moment.

Seeing Zhang Xun pulling out the silver needle, Hongli finally spoke.

"How is Concubine Chun?"

Zhang Xun looked gloomy.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Concubine Chun is almost at the end of her life. I'm afraid... she only has one or two days left..."

A whimper.

Qingying turned her head and saw Yongzhang immediately covering his mouth tightly again.

It seemed as if he didn't want to make any more sound.

Zhang Xun hadn't finished speaking yet.

"Your Majesty, although Concubine Chun's health was damaged due to her miscarriage, it shouldn't have been so severe. I suspect it's because of the inappropriate diet and medicines she's been taking."

"Your Majesty, may I be allowed to see Concubine Chun's pulse diagnosis and prescription?"

What this means is that someone has plotted against him.

Hongli's expression suddenly darkened. "Why not? Li Yu, do it immediately."

Li Yu agreed and turned to leave. Hongli asked again, "When will Concubine Chun wake up?"

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am not sure."

Those who are summoned will be summoned, and those who are inspected will be inspected.

Zhongcui Palace fell silent for a moment.

Since the emperor and empress personally ordered that something be investigated, it naturally wouldn't take much time.

The pulse case was quickly sent to Zhongcui Palace, and Zhang Xun began to personally check each food.

Qingying looked at him coldly for a moment, then suddenly waved to Yongzhang.

"Yong Zhang, come to the Empress Dowager."

When Yong Zhang heard the voice, his expression changed.

But I don’t know what he was thinking about, and his expression immediately changed to one of sadness.

He walked up to Qingying and stood still. "Empress Mother..."

Yongzhang was nearly two years younger than Yongqi.

Qingying naturally had nothing to be wary of as the child was only seven or eight years old.

He took a handkerchief and wiped away the tears from Yongzhang's face.

"Good boy, with the Emperor here, the imperial doctors will do their utmost to treat your mother. She will definitely get better, so don't worry too much."

After saying the soothing words, Qingying sniffed Yongzhang's scent calmly.

A deep meaning flashed across his eyes.

It turned out to be this thing.

Qingying took back the handkerchief and sat down again.

He also asked someone to bring a stool for Yongzhang to sit on, but did not say anything.

Zhang Xun came back quite quickly.

It took only about an incense stick of time before he entered the room, accompanied by a young eunuch holding a silver tray.

After signaling the young eunuch to come forward and place the silver tray on the table between the two of them, Zhang Xun knelt down again.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I found this substance in the dregs of the medicine that Noble Concubine Chun took today."

Qingying's eyes fell on the silver plate and she knew why Concubine Chun died so quickly.

Zhang Xun's voice did not stop.

"This herb is called Guanbaiwu, and it's used to cool the blood, stop bleeding, detoxify, and heal sores."

"But this substance is poisonous, so the dosage must be carefully considered. If you're not careful and take too much, it will cause a difficult-to-relieve body heat, leading to severe yin deficiency."

"Empress Chun's miscarriage is harmful to her health. It's not wrong to use this medicine, but I have checked and found that the amount of Guanbaiwu in the decoction is almost four or five times the dosage."
