Chapter 133 The Concubine's Sickness
Chapter 133 The Imperial Concubine’s Disease
Concubine Dan Tai lives in Linhua Palace.
The imperial concubine is beautiful, and is still slender than the eighteen beauties who have entered the palace in their forties. The imperial concubine's family is prominent, and her father is the Minister of Revenue, and she has a powerful family as her backer.
The imperial concubine had a son and a daughter: King Yu and Princess Baoqing.
In theory, she should be rich and full of honor and untiring favor.
However, after experiencing the battle between Empress Liao and Concubine Xue during his father's reign, the emperor was afraid that his woman would be pinched like a black-eyed chicken, so he deliberately suppressed the Concubine.
In order to reassure the Dan Tai family and the family behind it, the emperor was very fond of Princess Baoqing, the daughter of Concubine Dan Tai, and gave special care to her son, Prince Yu.
As for the other women in the palace, no one except Empress Qi had a status, and the Queen Yun had no sense of existence.
Linhua Palace, which is usually quiet, is brightly lit now and no one speaks.
The candlelight hit the window frame, reflecting the black figures of people all over the room.
The emperor sat outside the Linhua Palace, and the one who sat on equal footing was the Empress Dowager Qi.
The Empress, Concubine De and Concubine Shu sat down with her head and carefully went to see the expression of Empress Dowager Qi.
At this moment, a cry suddenly came from outside.
The silence interior was broken.
Everyone looked at Princess Baoqing and entered the palace late at night. They heard that Concubine Dan Tai was seriously ill and cried all the way.
"Mother, mother, what's wrong with you? Who is hurting you?" the princess cried.
When the queen and others heard this, they frowned slightly, feeling indescribable boredom; while the Queen Mother Qi's expression did not move.
Princess Baoqing rushed into the bedroom of Concubine Dan Tai and did not come to pay tribute to her father, mother and grandmother. Everyone got used to it. The princess was spoiled by the emperor and had long since lost the rules.
I heard that the princess was outside, robbing fertile land and killing many people, and was sued to Dali Temple.
The Dali Temple Minister came to ask for an explanation, but was beaten by the guards of the Princess's Mansion, but the emperor didn't say anything.
Not long after Princess Baoqing came in, an eunuch said that the Empress Dowager was here.
Everyone showed a little tiredness again.
Hu Tai is late.
Another nonsense came.
The emperor and others stood up and saluted to Empress Dowager Hu who came in; the emperor also stood up and saluted his mother, giving the position to Empress Dowager Hu.
Only Empress Dowager Qi did not move.
Empress Dowager Hu couldn't stand her, but she didn't dare to act rashly.
"Why no one told the Ai family?" Empress Dowager Hu asked, her voice full of displeasure.
The queen and others did not answer. Anyway, they could not make the decision in this harem and would not be angry with Empress Dowager Hu.
Empress Dowager Qi looked slightly: "It's the Ai family that doesn't allow them to go. It's such a late night, I dare not disturb my sister's rest. How can I disturb you for the sake of a concubine?"
She spoke very politely.
But everyone is here, but Empress Hu is missing, how can Empress Hu be willing to follow?
"You are all young and have never seen the world. If the Ai family doesn't come to take charge, you will be panicked." Empress Dowager Hu snorted coldly, "Come here, take the Ai family's cards and invite Mr. Lu.
The Ai family has told you a long time ago that the imperial physicians in the palace all said that they could not even cure their coughs. This was not what the Ai family said, but what Empress Ren Xiaowen said."
Empress Renxiaowen refers to the Liao family, and "Empress Renxiaowen" is her posthumous title.
When the emperor saw that she mentioned the old sesame and corn, he was very upset: "My mother, you have seen it too, go back to the palace to rest first. How dare you let the old man work hard?"
Empress Dowager Hu suddenly glared at him: "The emperor said, isn't the Ai family worthy of being here?"
Emperor: "The son doesn't mean this."
The queen and others knelt down: "Stop the anger of the queen."
Empress Dowager Hu ignored it and just urged the eunuch: "Go and invite Mr. Lu to come quickly."
The eunuch said yes, turned around and went.
Several people here are undercurrents, and Princess Baoqing cried loudly in the imperial concubine's lying there.
Finally, the imperial concubine woke up.
The eunuch hurriedly came to report to the emperor, the queen mother and others.
The imperial concubine just fainted and the imperial physician used a needle and saved her for so long before she woke her up.
After waking up, the imperial concubine's face was pale and still felt pain.
"It hurts so much, get the medicine to me quickly, it hurts so much." Her voice was very weak, but the pain must have really hurt.
The emperor entered the bedroom.
In the imperial concubine's bedroom, in addition to Princess Baoqing, there were two magistrates from the Imperial Hospital.
All the imperial physicians are also in the side palace.
Several people talked about the imperial concubine's pulse: "The pulse is mysterious and rapid, the moss is thick, and there is heat in the body. Use Shaoyao and Licorice Decoction to harmonize blood and nourish yin, relieve emergency and relieve pain."
"If you are afraid of such pain, you will have congestion and not relieve diarrhea. You should use Da Chaihu Decoction to relieve liver and gallbladder."
Everyone whispered.
"However, the medicine that has been used for three months still has not improved. I have used all the peony and licorice decoction, Da Chaihu decoction, and Liujunzi decoction." Suddenly, a doctor said.
Everyone suddenly fell silent.
The imperial physicians remembered again that Concubine Dan Tai did not actually get sick today. She has been sick for more than three months.
On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Concubine Dan Tai suffered abdominal pain, and the Imperial Doctor diagnosed it as "liver heat and qi stagnation, stomach and internal heat stagnation". After using ear medicine for half a month, it gradually improved.
At that time, Concubine Dan Tai was ill and cried to the emperor, wanting her son, Prince Yu, to return to Beijing to visit her.
The emperor agreed.
This is why King Yu returned to Beijing early.
After returning to Beijing, King Yu served in Linhua Palace for half a month and had no time to go out to see Xue Yutan.
The imperial concubine's condition gradually improved. She relapsed after stopping the medicine.
Repeatedly, the imperial concubine has not been able to recover in the past three months.
Recently she started to have a fever and the pain became even worse.
The left court diagnosed that the imperial concubine had both liver and spleen deficiency and blood stasis, which led to fever.
The court prescribed the 14th-day Liujunzi Decoction first, and then the 14th-day Sijunzi Decoction and the 14th-day Angelica Decoction and the edible blood-boosting soup.
Unexpectedly, the imperial concubine's condition worsened.
She started having a high fever the day before yesterday.
The high fever did not subside, the imperial concubine's abdominal pain was like a stir, and her pulse was critical, and she finally alarmed the emperor and the empress dowager.
Tonight, the imperial concubine suddenly fainted, and the emperor, Empress Dowager Qi and others rushed over overnight.
"There is a miracle doctor outside the palace. Have you heard of it?" Doctor Sun, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke.
"From the Lu family?"
"Is it the newly sealed county lord of Chengyang?"
"I heard she can bring back the dead."
The second master Xue Jingsheng became the fourth-rank minister, which was considered a high-ranking official and a major event in the court. His niece Feng Chengyang County Lord also came into everyone's sight.
Xue Mei saved Wen Zhao and made prosthetics for Xue Chi, which was well known in the Imperial Hospital.
"Yes, why don't you invite her?"
"Your Majesty is afraid he has forgotten it, so he should remind him." Dr. Sun said.
Everyone suddenly fell silent.
Who will remind you?
Reminder is equivalent to referral. If something happens, you have to take responsibility.
No one talks.
"Doctor Sun, since you said it first, why don't you remind me?" someone said.
Doctor Sun: “…”
These people who are greedy for life and fear death.
Doctor Sun was also afraid of death and was unsure. The emperor asked Miss Xue last time that he would not forget it. If he still remembered, why didn’t he invite Miss Xue?
The imperial physicians did not look forward to Miss Xue, but instead looked forward to the old master of the Lu family.
Old Master Lu went up to take his pulse and came to the same conclusion as the imperial physicians. The imperial physicians had used the prescriptions he wanted to use.
"...It's better to invite the Lord of Chengyang County. Maybe she has some clever ideas." Old Master Lu said to the emperor.
The imperial physicians pushed and shoved the words, but Old Master Lu said it.
