Dressed as the villain's stepmother

The prince passed away.

The whole world mourns together.

The cruelest thing in the world is a white-haired person giving a black-haired person a gift.

In ordinary people's families, children and grandchildren pass away before their elders. The elders may still guard the bodies of their children and grandchildren and mourn with all their hearts. However, the emperor is not an ordinary person after all. Therefore, when the prince dies, the emperor needs to work hard and arrange the prince's affairs.

Jiang Lianzhu did not leave the palace.

In the corner of the East Palace, she found Liao Xiaoping, who was very sad and crying silently.

Not only the royal family, but also Jiang Lianzhu's son Liao Xiaoping was truly saddened by the prince's departure.

"This man has passed away, and those who are alive should live well."

Jiang Lianzhu put the food she brought aside and comforted Dabao.

"Son, you can't go without food or drink like this. Even if you don't care about my feelings, you should not make the prince uneasy."

When the prince was dying, he tried hard to comfort the sad Dabao.

These Jiang Lianzhu are all visible.

"Mom, I understand what you said, but I feel uncomfortable right now. If I could be smarter, would the prince be saved?"

Liao Xiaoping is blaming himself.

Jiang Lianzhu patted her son on the shoulder and sighed.

"Son, let me ask you, do you think the emperor and the doctors who have been treating the prince in this palace are not smart?"

Liao Xiaoping didn't speak, but he already understood Jiang Lianzhu's words.

There are many people smarter than him in this world.

But if you want to save the prince's life, it's never just about being smart.

"The prince has passed away. Son, what you should do now is do your best to do what you can for the prince."

Jiang Lianzhu hoped that Liao Xiaoping would have no regrets.

This is her only request for Dabao.

"Birth, old age, illness and death are things that can never be prevented in this world. What we can do is to have less regrets."

Liao Xiaoping seemed to understand.

After finishing the meal, he forced himself to help. After Jiang Lianzhu saw that Liao Xiaoping was fine, she went to Concubine Xi's palace.

When the prince passed away, Concubine Xi was so sad that she fainted from tears.

His Majesty was worried about Concubine Xi's health, so he specially arranged for Jiang Lianzhu to go to the concubine's palace to take care of her.

"Mrs. Liao, you are finally here. Our mother-in-law has been waiting for you. Please come with me."

As soon as Fenxiang, the maid in Concubine Xi's palace, left the palace to look for someone, she bumped into Jiang Lianzhu who was coming. Seeing Jiang Lianzhu coming, she was naturally happy and led the person to the palace.

"Report to the Queen, Mrs. Liao is here."

On the bed, Concubine Xi was fainting from crying, her face was pale and her expression was sad. Jiang Lianzhu stepped forward to check her pulse.

Others in the palace did not dare to disturb him and could hear the needle drop for a while.

"Tell me the truth, how is my illness?"

Seeing the death of the prince, Concubine Xi couldn't bear it and fell ill. She thought of her own body and couldn't help but have random thoughts.

"I am a noble concubine, and there are many things that need me to arrange. Madam Liao, you are my trusted doctor, so I hope you can tell me the truth."

Concubine Xi does not only belong to herself, she also involves the interests of many people.

Her mother's family and her prince all needed her to make arrangements.

"My dear, your health is much better than before. Don't think too much. As long as you take good care of your illness, you will definitely recover."

Jiang Lianzhu stopped Concubine Xi's words.

"really?"

Concubine Xi was overjoyed.

She originally thought that she would be like the prince, ignoring the medicine and stone every day, but she didn't expect that her body was gradually getting better.

"My Majesty, I take it seriously. If your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can ask other doctors to diagnose and treat you again."

Jiang Lianzhu removed her hand from Concubine Xi's wrist.

"I believe in you, there is no need to summon other doctors."

The prince was newly mourned, and everyone inside and outside the palace was busy.

His Majesty was even more saddened. Concubine Xi was unwilling to follow the truth at this time because she frequently summoned the imperial doctor.

"Your Majesty, although your body is mostly healed, you still need to take good care of yourself in the days to come. Don't work too hard."

"Okay, Fenxiang, give Mrs. Liao a good send-off for me."

There are many things going on in the palace.

Concubine Xi knew that Jiang Lianzhu could not stay for long, so she asked her maid to see her off for her.

Leaving the palace of Concubine Xi.

Jiang Lianzhu was a little uneasy. Of course she understood why Concubine Xi had random thoughts. No, to be precise, Concubine Xi's suspicions were somewhat reasonable.

Because Jiang Lianzhu discovered that Concubine Xi’s pulse condition was very similar to that of the deceased prince.

Obviously they are two different people.

This puzzled Jiang Lianzhu, but until the puzzle was solved, she had no way of explaining it to Concubine Xi. After all, she was originally an agent and not a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine.

Therefore, regarding the fact that Concubine Xi and the prince had similar pulses, she planned to go to the palace doctor to check.

But this can only happen slowly.

Now that the prince has passed away, the palace is in chaos, and I'm afraid it won't be easy to investigate this matter for a while.

Jiang Lianzhu was thinking in her mind, but she never imagined that when she returned to the East Palace again, she would see Dr. Li in a corner of the garden.

This person is already over sixty years old and has silver hair. He is hiding under a large field of winter jasmine flowers. If you don’t look carefully, you will definitely miss him.

"Doctor Li?"

Jiang Lianzhu asked aloud, but the other party seemed not to expect that she was discovered, and quickly wiped the corners of her eyes.

When she turned around and saw that it was Jiang Lianzhu, her expression softened.

"Mr. Li, you have done your best to treat the prince's illness. Now that he has passed away, don't blame yourself too much."

Jiang Lianzhu knew that he had been treating the prince in the East Palace and comforted him.

"Mrs. Liao, I have been serving the prince since he was born. Because of the prince's congenital deficiencies, many imperial doctors said that the prince would not live to be ten years old. But I didn't believe it. I felt that if I tried my best, I would definitely be able to extend the prince's life. extend……"

Seeing someone he knew, Doctor Li unconsciously mentioned the past.

"Doctor Li said that there is a way to prolong life?"

Jiang Lianzhu was very curious.

The essence of the prince's illness is that he is born with deficiencies and is poor and weak. Naturally, he will not live long as time goes by.

Not to mention this era, even in modern times it is difficult to grow up.

"It's not me, it's my master. His name is Sun Qi. He is hailed as a medical saint by doctors. I believe that if my master were to take action, maybe the prince would not die so quickly."

Doctor Li felt disappointed and sighed.

"It's a pity that God gave me ten years, but I couldn't find the master in these ten years."

Jiang Lianzhu has never heard of Sun Qi's name as a medical saint, which is reasonable. After all, she is not from this era.

"Mr. Li, there is no need to blame yourself. Maybe your master is no longer alive..."

"No, I heard that he was studying Gu magic in southern Xinjiang five years ago!"
