Shocking! Five men are in love with the same woman!

The other princes were either nervous, anxious, worried, or thoughtful, each with their own expressions and thoughts.

Only Xiao Muyao didn't think about anything, because Lingyan knew that Emperor Jingzhao was alright as soon as she entered the Dragon Palace and glanced at him.

So she told Xiao Muyao not to worry, and Xiao Muyao was naturally relieved.

The Empress looked at the unconscious Emperor Jingzhao and couldn't stop her tears from flowing.

The concubines also gathered around the bed, asking the imperial physicians about the situation.

"Imperial Physician, how is His Majesty?"

"Imperial Physician, will His Majesty be alright?"

"Imperial Physician, you must cure His Majesty!"

The noise made the head of the hospital sweat even more.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Muyao frowned and said in a deep voice, "Quiet."

In an instant, all the sounds disappeared.

This demonstrates Xiao Muyao's prestige.

Several princes were extremely jealous and resentful about this.

The head of the hospital breathed a sigh of relief and continued to take the pulse and examine the patient, his expression extremely focused.

Everyone held their breath, watching the head of the palace's every move with bated breath. The entire palace was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Once the head of the academy finally withdrew his hand, the empress immediately asked anxiously, "How is His Majesty?"

The head of the academy immediately bowed and replied, "Your Majesty, His Majesty was overcome by anger, which caused his blood and qi to flow in reverse, resulting in disordered meridians. In addition, his excessive worry damaged his heart meridian, which is why he suddenly fainted and vomited blood."

The Empress trembled, almost losing her balance, and asked in a tearful voice, "Imperial Physician, is His Majesty alright?"

The head of the academy quickly reassured her, "Your Majesty, please don't worry. His Majesty's health is still good. As long as he takes good care of himself, there is no danger to his life."

After saying that, he opened his medicine box, took out silver needles, and carefully applied them to Emperor Jingzhao's acupoints.

With each needle insertion, the doctor was completely focused, and even more beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

As he applied the acupuncture needles, he said softly, "This needle can unblock Your Majesty's qi and blood, and relieve the disorder of the meridians."

After the acupuncture was completed, the head of the academy took out several herbs from the medicine box and solemnly instructed Eunuch Yuan beside him, "Quickly prepare this medicine, using ginseng as a guide, and simmer it over a low flame. There must be no mistakes."

Eunuch Yuan immediately agreed and went to prepare the medicine himself.

Then, the head of the academy looked at everyone again and solemnly said, "Before His Majesty wakes up, the room must be kept quiet. His Majesty must not be subjected to any further stimulation. Your humble servant will stay here and observe His Majesty's condition at any time."

Upon hearing this, the Empress immediately replied, "Thank you for troubling the Imperial Physician."

The head of the academy immediately replied, "I dare not, it is my duty."

The Empress was no longer so flustered and had regained some composure.

She turned to the people in the hall and said, "Since the imperial physician says we must keep quiet, then all my sisters, princes and princesses, please go back. The imperial physician and I will be fine here."

Upon hearing this, most people immediately left.

Only a few with their own thoughts remained standing still.

Among them were several princes who coveted the throne, as well as their respective mothers.

It's hard to say whether people were disappointed or relieved that Emperor Jingzhao was unharmed this time.

However, since Emperor Jingzhao was unharmed, he would inevitably have to make a show of it, either by being filial or by attending to his illness.

In short, it's impossible to just leave like this.

To their surprise, Lao Liu left without looking back, without the slightest hesitation.

Indeed, he is the emperor's most beloved prince. Even if he does nothing, he still enjoys the emperor's special favor.

Unlike them, who have to scheme and plot to please His Majesty.

The Empress, seeing that they were lingering and refusing to leave, naturally guessed what they were thinking.

Looking at them with an ambiguous expression, she said, "Didn't you hear what the imperial physician said? Don't you understand what 'quiet' means? If you don't understand, I can help you understand."

Upon hearing this, the group reluctantly left.

Otherwise, the Empress might resort to coercive measures, and might even file a lawsuit against them, which would be a loss for them.

Once the hall finally quieted down, the Empress calmed down and looked at Emperor Jingzhao with worry.

Through this incident, she finally saw through the true intentions of these people.

It turns out that among all these concubines and children, very few truly cared about Emperor Jingzhao's health.

Surprisingly, it was the Empress and Consort Li who were most concerned.

I wonder what His Majesty will think when he finds out.

Just as dusk was falling, Emperor Jingzhao slowly awoke.

He woke up with a splitting headache and his vision was blurry.

He blinked hard, trying to see everything around him clearly.

As his consciousness gradually returned, he recalled the things he had seen that had caused him such heartache, and his heart ached again.

He tried to move his body slightly, wanting to sit up, but found himself completely powerless.

"Your Majesty, you're awake!"

The Empress, who had been staying by the bedside, exclaimed in surprise, her voice hoarse and weary.

Emperor Jingzhao struggled to open his mouth, his voice weak and hoarse: "I... this is..."

The Empress quickly brought over a cup of warm water and gently helped Emperor Jingzhao sit up, letting him lean against her.

She carefully brought the water to his lips: "Your Majesty, please don't talk too much. Drink some water first and calm your mind."

Emperor Jingzhao drank a few sips of water from the Empress's hand, feeling his throat ease slightly, before slowly saying, "I... am fine..."

At this moment, the head of the hospital immediately stepped forward and took the patient's pulse without saying a word.

He then withdrew his hand and replied happily, "Your Majesty is now out of danger. All you need to do is take your medicine on time and rest well. But remember not to be stimulated again, and especially not to experience extreme joy or sorrow."

Upon hearing this, the Empress finally relaxed her tense nerves.

I hope everything is alright.
