Compared with the scene of imperial physicians coming and going in and out of Chengqian Palace in the earlier days, Kunning Palace is much deserted here.

Sang Zhi followed Concubine Dong E in, and found that there was only an old imperial doctor beside the queen who was taking the pulse. At first glance, she looked familiar, and then remembered that the old imperial doctor was also on the list when she was in Chengqian Palace last time. The envoy of the hospital, the chief physician.In the early Qing Dynasty, the envoys of the imperial hospital were generally first-rank imperial physicians, followed by second-rank imperial physicians, third-rank physicians, and fourth-rank doctors.In Chengqian Palace a few days ago, all the imperial physicians of the second rank and above went, and the envoy of the Imperial Hospital who was in charge of the Imperial Hospital naturally had to go in person.

"The concubine has seen the queen." Concubine Dong E hurriedly bowed. Sang Zhi should have knelt down, but she was anxious, so she followed Concubine Dong E's blessing in a hurry and looked straight at the queen.

The queen frowned, her complexion was obviously abnormally red, and she lay quietly on the bed.Hearing Concubine Dong E's voice and looking at them, she immediately saw Sang Zhi who was impolite, and for a moment a smile appeared on the corners of her lips inadvertently, although it was fleeting, it was caught in Concubine Dong E's eyes.However, the queen said, "Why is my sister here? It's just a fever. It's okay. My sister is not feeling well, please sit down."

Although she was looking at Concubine Dong E saying this, Sang Zhi always felt as if she was talking to him.

Concubine Dong E said, "The queen is ill, and the concubine is worried, and I really don't feel at ease." She asked the frowning old man beside her, "Doctor Feng, how is the queen's condition?"

The envoy of the imperial hospital hesitated for a moment, seeing that Sang Zhi was so nervous that he wanted to pull his beard and let him speak quickly, so he heard the old man say, "The empress... has a fever."

"Yes, yes, no, no," Concubine Dong E emphasized her voice, "Envoy Feng Yuan is in charge of the Imperial Hospital, can't you tell the difference?"

Physician Feng suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. Of course he wanted to know that not long ago, many second-rank and above imperial physicians in the imperial hospital died because they failed to save Prince Rong. "Hui Niang Niang, I do have a fever."

Concubine Dong E said, "It's good to know what the disease is. You don't dare to neglect the Queen's disease."

There is something in these words that makes Imperial Physician Feng nearly paralyzed with fright. The old man lives in a first-class official residence, and his family has a great career. Although he is extremely prosperous and wealthy in the palace, if he is a little careless, he may hurt the whole family.Imperial Physician Feng became more cautious as he got older, he did not dare to speak nonsense, and hurriedly said, "As an imperial physician, I dare not treat any patient in the slightest." He argued openly and secretly that he did not do his best to treat Prince Rong.

Concubine Dong E twitched the corners of her mouth and smiled, "That would be the best." Then she asked, "Has the queen's fever gone now?"

"For a while... maybe not yet." Imperial Physician Feng tremblingly said, "Wait a while, I think it's time to retreat."

Concubine Dong E sat beside the queen, she lowered her voice, "Then I will wait for you."

Sang Zhi stood beside Concubine Dong E, looking at the queen's blushing cheeks, anxious.There was a slight smile on the queen's face, and she said softly, "Don't worry." She didn't have a title, and she seemed to be speaking to Concubine Dong E, but Sang Zhi was now convinced that the words were addressed to herself.Immediately, I had mixed feelings in my heart, wanted to speak but knew it was inappropriate, so I had to bite my lip and wait silently.

How could Concubine Dong E not know the queen's intentions!Suddenly there was a strange feeling in her heart, inexplicably felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't figure it out for a while, but she had to follow the queen's words, "The queen's fever is gone, so the concubine can rest assured."

The queen nodded, and Cai Wanyun, who was waiting beside her, couldn't stop changing the veil for the queen to put on her forehead.

Time passed bit by bit.After waiting for about half an hour, the queen's face turned redder, and the situation seemed to be getting worse. At first, she was able to speak soberly, but now she has kept her mouth shut and her eyes closed.

Concubine Dong E was the first to stand up, "Prince doctor!"

She shouted loudly, and Imperial Physician Feng was so frightened that his legs went limp, and hurried to the bedside, "Imperial Concubine!"

"No matter how hard the queen's illness can be cured, you can just wait to kill the nine clans." After the imperial concubine said this, Imperial Physician Feng's legs trembled and he fell to his knees, "Old minister... old minister must do everything in his power!"

But at this time, Concubine Dong E became dizzy for a while, Sang Zhi and Lu Ying quickly supported her from left to right, Sang Zhi said, "Your Majesty, you haven't had a good rest for several days, why don't you go back first?"

Luying also said, "Yes, ma'am, you haven't recovered, and you haven't been able to sleep well these days. Even your iron body can't bear it."

Concubine Dong E raised her forehead and glanced at the queen, but suddenly felt sad.While the sick queen was hurting Concubine Dong E, a thought that frightened her crossed her mind.Her mind was seriously hurt, she just felt that she had no strength in her whole body, and she didn't want to stay in Kunning Palace anymore.For a while, she was very afraid that the queen would not be healed too well.Because, if the queen can't be cured, then all her thoughts these days have been proved to be all wrong!But the queen is cured, is her suspicion completely credible?

Concubine Dong E was in a state of confusion, she grasped Imperial Physician Feng's shoulder with great effort, and said word by word, "Must, must, treat, good, empress!"

Imperial Physician Feng was so frightened that he could hardly speak, "The old minister leads the order!"

As soon as the words fell, the voice of "the emperor is coming" came from outside, and Emperor Shunzhi came.

All of Kunning Palace fell to their knees.

The emperor said "Pingshen" and went to help Concubine Dong E, and asked the imperial physician, "Is the queen sick?" The tone was very indifferent, as if asking casually.

Physician Feng saw the emperor coming, and the old man almost didn't faint.A few days ago, the emperor punished the entire imperial hospital because of Prince Rong's incident. As a imperial hospital, he naturally made the crime more serious, and now the queen is ill again...so when Emperor Shunzhi came over, imperial doctor Feng almost wanted to apologize with death, Trembling, he said, "Go back to the emperor, the empress has a fever."

The emperor said "Yes", "Treat him well." He glanced at him again, and said meaningfully, "My imperial hospital does not raise waste."

Imperial Physician Feng kowtowed, "Old Minister obeys the order!"

The emperor held Concubine Dong E's hand, "Go back. You are very sick here, and you are not well."

Concubine Dong E was not in the mood to talk, so she followed him and left.Lu Ying hurriedly followed, Sang Zhi paused, but couldn't lift his feet.

Concubine Dong E, who had just walked a few steps, suddenly stopped, without looking at Sangzhi, "You can stay." She was supported by Lu Ying and returned to Chengqian Palace.

Sang Zhi was grateful but also unhappy.

It was midnight.

The queen's condition still did not improve.Physician Feng murmured when he took the Queen's pulse, "Strange, strange, it's clearly a fever pulse, and there's nothing wrong with it, but why..." As he said that his hands were already trembling, he hurriedly recruited his entourage, "Go find two more imperial physicians." Come."

Not long after, two imperial physicians came from the imperial hospital to take the queen's pulse in turn. When imperial physician Feng asked, everyone came to the same conclusion.He was even more puzzled.

But Sang Zhi almost died of worry.

The queen suddenly began to rave, "Hot...hot..." Her cheeks were already flushed with blood, and she looked terrible.

The imperial doctors of Tai Hospital only dared to use mild traditional Chinese medicine to slowly remove the fire. These imperial doctors have been immersed in the harem all year round, and they would die if they were not careful. If you speak indiscriminately, no one dares to use drugs indiscriminately, and only take the most conservative treatment.

Obviously, the imperial physicians' treatment of the queen did not work.

Cai Wanyun was also sweating profusely, changing the veils on the queen's forehead one by one, but her forehead was getting hotter and hotter.

Sang Zhi strode out and walked to Cai Wanyun's side to take her handkerchief. Cai Wanyun saw that a new person was about to speak, but Sang Zhi spoke before her, "The empress is the most important thing now." Cai Wanyun was stunned, then kept silent.Although she was dissatisfied with Sangzhi, but now that Sangzhi is a celebrity in Chengqian Palace, she is not easy to offend.And it is true that the queen's condition is the most important right now.

Sang Zhi took a handkerchief from Cai Wanyun's hand, suddenly paused, and asked, "You keep applying hot handkerchiefs to her?"

Cai Wanyun said indifferently, "This is the order of the imperial physician."

"What's the use of this!" Sang Zhi was anxious, his face gloomy, "Is there any wine in Kunning Palace?"

Cai Wanyun was very angry, "What kind of wine do you want at this time!"

"You just said yes?"

Cai Wanyun was very impatient, "No."

"How could it not be possible!" Sang Zhi snatched her veil, "It's useless to apply it like this! You need to use alcohol! Use alcohol to wipe the queen's whole body, especially the palms, soles and underarms." Her voice was anxious, and her face couldn't hide it worry.

Cai Wanyun was stunned, "What's the solution?"

Sang Zhi bypassed her and looked at Imperial Physician Feng, "Emperor Physician, tell me, is this method feasible?"

"This..." The imperial physician looked puzzled, and asked Sang Zhi, "Miss, have you learned medical skills? Although the veterans have heard of this method, but... have never used it. The queen empress has a noble status, how can..."

"Just say yes!" Sang Zhi interrupted him angrily.These imperial physicians never dared to adopt unorthodox treatment methods in order to protect themselves.

Imperial Physician Feng looked hesitant and refused to speak.

Sang Zhi anxiously ignored him and only looked at Cai Wanyun, "My father is a famous doctor with superb medical skills. Although I didn't inherit my family education, I would never go on a business trip if I heard it from my ears. Mother Cai, trust me!"

Cai Wanyun hesitated.She can't afford this guilt.

For a while, no one in Kunning Palace dared to look at Sang Zhi.There is a way but dare not use it, because no one dares to take this responsibility.

The night was getting darker, and Sangzhi was angry and anxious.It wasn't until Aunt Su Ma rushed to see the Queen's condition after hearing the news that Sang Zhi saw hope.She knelt down in front of La Aunt Su Ma with a plop, "Aunt Su Ma!" She repeated what she had said before.

Aunt Su Ma asked about the situation, knowing that the queen had been having a high fever, she frowned, but asked Sang Zhi, "Is your method sure to work?"

Sang Zhi paused, she wasn't sure, but she only knew that this was an effective way to lower body temperature.

Seeing this, La Aunt Su Ma immediately changed her expression, "How can the Queen's matter be trifling? If you are not sure, how dare you speak nonsense!"

Sang Zhi was furious, "But if you don't try, will you let the queen have a fever?"

No one dared to talk back to Aunt Su Ma.As soon as Sang Zhi's words came out, even Cai Wanyun fell to her knees with a plop in fright, and kowtowed deeply.

Aunt Su Ma looked deeply at Sang Zhi, before she could speak, footsteps came from outside, it was Concubine Jing Meng Guqing who came.

"What's the matter?" She greeted Aunt Su Ma first, "Aunt Su Ma is here too."

Although La Aunt Su Ma has a very high seniority, she is still a slave no matter what, so she gave Concubine Jing a small blessing.Concubine Jing didn't go to help her either. Generally, no one would dare to ask La Aunt Su Ma to salute. Even the emperor would have to be courteous when seeing La Aunt Su Ma. However, Concubine Jing didn't follow this salute because she had a grudge against the empress dowager. .

Concubine Jing walked directly in front of the queen, and seeing that the queen was still having a high fever, her complexion turned pale immediately, "The queen is still sick, what are you doing?"

"Return to Concubine Jing—" Cai Wanyun repeated the matter.

After hearing this, Concubine Jing looked at La Aunt Su Ma and then at La Aunt Sang Zhi, but she stepped forward to help La Aunt Su Ma, and said to La Aunt Su Ma, "Since the imperial doctors are helpless, why not use her if Sang Zhi has a solution? Concubine Jing glanced coldly at the three kneeling doctors, "I think Aunt Su Ma knows better about the virtues of these doctors." Take them all!"

Concubine Jing's temperament is something no one dares to offend, even Lagu Su Ma can't do anything about it.What's more, La Aunt Su Ma is only worried about Sangzhi, she doesn't know how much Sangzhi weighs, but her concern for the Queen is true.However, Concubine Jing is bold and reckless, and she knows Sang Zhi's affection for the queen, and she has no other choice, so she completely follows Sang Zhi.

Sang Zhi is almost tearful of gratitude to Concubine Jing at this moment.

Aunt Su Ma sighed, she was just ordered to check on the situation, and the Empress Dowager still couldn't leave.Besides, Aunt Su Ma knew that although Concubine Jing acted decisively, she was not indiscreet.So he only stayed for a while, then went on his own.
