Thinking of this, Zhao Yuqing's eyes went dark, and he suddenly felt unwell. He looked at Zhao Sixian with a pale face, and for a moment he stammered and couldn't say anything.

Hearing what Wen Shutang said, Zhao Sixian was immediately furious. He slammed the table hard, stood up and roared: "What are you doing in the Imperial Hospital? How can we rest assured that the concubine's life is in the hands of you quacks? Are the imperial doctors in the palace all idiots and good-for-nothings?!"

Hearing what Zhao Sixian said, the man kneeling on the ground trembled violently and dared not refute.

He knew Zhao Sixian's identity, so naturally he didn't dare to say anything now. He could only silently endure Zhao Sixian's anger.

Zhao Linhe, who was sitting nearby, was afraid that Zhao Sixian would get angry and say something shocking, so he quickly stood up to support Zhao Sixian, stretched out his hand to help the old man calm down, and glared at the man kneeling on the ground.

"Go and get Imperial Physician Cui now. I want to ask you what is going on. Is Concubine Dun's life so unimportant that she could be destroyed by an imperial physician? Does His Majesty know about this?"

Hearing Zhao Linhe's voice, the man felt as if he had been pardoned. He kowtowed and stood up quickly: "Yes, yes, I will go and invite Doctor Cui over now!"

After saying that, the man fled out of Zhao Yuqing's bedroom, as if there was some ferocious beast chasing him.

He didn't want to be someone else's scapegoat, so it would be best if he could find the culprit, Doctor Cui.

Only after the man left did Zhao Yuqing react. Her eyes were filled with tears and she looked at Zhao Sixian with tears in her eyes.

"Dad, I didn't expect you to see my daughter's terrible side when you came back. I'm sorry that you worried me. I'm an unfilial daughter."

As she spoke, tears began to fall from the corners of Zhao Yuqing's eyes. Her pale face made her look very pitiful and lovable.

Even Wen Shutang couldn't help but say silently in his heart, "What a sick beauty."

Seeing Zhao Yuqing crying, Zhao Sixian felt so distressed that he hurried forward to comfort his daughter.

"My dear child, how can you be blamed for this? You have been kept in the dark the whole time. If Madam Wei Wen had not come with us today, I don't know how long you would have continued to drink this poison! It's also my fault. I was too ambitious back then and left the capital without you. You have suffered all these years."

As Zhao Sixian spoke, tears welled up in his old eyes.

He raised his hand to wipe the moisture from the corners of his eyes, then turned to look at Wen Shutang: "Thank you Madam Wen for today. If it weren't for you, Qing'er's illness would have been even more difficult to recover, and I don't know how the villain would have murdered her."

Wen Shutang nodded slightly: "Old sir, you are too kind. I just discovered it by accident. It is really the Empress Dun who is so lucky."

Hearing what Wen Shutang said, Zhao Sixian nodded with satisfaction: "Well, no matter what, thank you very much today. I will definitely thank you well someday."

Wen Shutang shook his head and stopped dwelling on the issue: "The most urgent task is to quickly find the mastermind behind this, and to see a doctor to the Empress Dun as soon as possible. Although the Empress is not seriously poisoned now, if it is delayed for a long time, the minor illness will develop into a major illness."

Hearing this, Zhao Sixian immediately nodded in agreement: "That's right, Qing'er, don't worry, now that I'm back, I will never let anyone hurt you again. Madam Wen, please take a look at Qing'er and see how to treat her illness? I don't dare to trust the imperial physicians in the palace anymore."

Wen Shutang walked forward and sat in front of the bed: "Please, Madam Dunfei, stretch out your hand."

Zhao Yuqing now completely trusted Wen Shutang. She quickly rolled up her sleeves and held her wrist out to her, staring at Wen Shutang with her beautiful eyes, as if she was afraid that something serious and irreversible had really happened to her body.

Wen Shutang put his hand on her wrist to feel her pulse, and after a moment of silence, he looked up at Zhao Yuqing.

"It has been quite a while since Empress Dun drank this medicine. A lot of toxins have accumulated in her body. There is no way to get rid of them in a short period of time. You can only slowly take the medicine to recuperate. During this period, you must not be stimulated by anything and you must not get emotional. I will prescribe a prescription for you later. You can follow the prescription to get the medicine and boil it. Slowly recuperate, and your health will definitely improve, but I can't guarantee how long it will take."

After hearing what Wen Shutang said, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, feeling fortunate that Zhao Yuqing was fine.

Especially Zhao Sixian, after hearing the news that Zhao Yuqing's body could recover, he relaxed completely and there was obvious relaxation on his face.

"Since Madam Wen has said so, Qing'er's health must still be cured. That's good, that's good."

Wen Shutang nodded and said nothing more.

In fact, Zhao Yuqing didn't have any serious illness, she was just too weak. She just said that on purpose.

After all, only by making Zhao Yuqing's illness sound more serious can the Zhao family take it seriously.

Wen Shutang is looking forward to finding out the mastermind behind this incident.

After a while, Doctor Cui did not come, but a shrill voice was heard from outside the door.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

Hearing this, everyone's expressions froze, and they turned to look at the door and saluted respectfully.

Only Zhao Sixian showed some obvious anger on his face, but he just bowed slightly without any formal greeting.

The emperor was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe and seemed to have just returned from a meeting. He came over in a hurry.

The emperor walked into the bedroom and saw Zhao Sixian at first sight. The expression on his face froze for a moment, then he immediately put on a smiling look, and hurriedly walked forward to lend Zhao Sixian his hand.

"Mr. Zhao, when did you return to Beijing? Why didn't you tell me in advance so that I could send someone to pick you up?

Hearing what the emperor said, Zhao Sixian snorted coldly and slightly turned sideways to avoid the hand extended by the emperor, obviously not wanting to have any contact with him.

"Your Majesty, your words are too serious. I am just an old man with no power or influence. How can I have the face to ask Your Majesty to send someone to pick me up? I don't ask Your Majesty to treat me politely, but I only ask you to treat my poor daughter well!"

Seeing Zhao Sixian's obvious resistance, the emperor's hand froze in mid-air. There was a flash of obvious gloom in the emperor's eyes at Zhao Sixian's disrespectful behavior.

Hearing what Zhao Sixian said, the emperor burst into laughter.

"Mr. Zhao, what are you talking about? I love my beloved concubine very much. Her food, clothing and daily expenses are all excellent. You can rest assured."
