Chapter 324 Do You Know - Xiao Qinshi 51
Seeing that Empress Dowager Qin Wanrong had no reaction to their begging eyes, Zhang Guifen's palace maids understood everything. The Empress Dowager really didn't care about Empress Zhang's life or death, or it could be said that the Empress Dowager really had no feelings for the emperor, and therefore didn't care about the emperor's wives or concubines.
It was not until this time that the palace people realized what Queen Zhang Guifen had done wrong in the past. Yes, ever since the Queen Consort confirmed that the Queen Dowager did not care about power, she felt that the Queen Dowager would not do anything to her. Plus, the Queen Dowager had a cold personality, so the Queen Consort decided on her own that there was no need to please the Queen Dowager too much. In order to take care of her pregnancy, she didn't even pay her respects to the Queen Dowager.
Zhang Guifen should not have been so careless. Her life in this life had been much smoother than her previous one, and she had lost her normal mind. So now she could only lie in the delivery room in pain and fear, struggling desperately to give birth to a child.
As Zhang Guifen screamed in pain, time passed, but the baby was never born. It was obvious that Zhang Guifen had a difficult delivery. Seeing that everyone was getting desperate, Qin Wanrong observed through the monitoring robot that the situation in the delivery room was almost over. If she didn't take action, there would be two deaths.
"Please invite all the doctors on duty to come here. If it doesn't work, use drugs to induce labor! We can't delay any longer!"
"Yes." No one dared to stop the empress dowager from speaking. Concubine Li wanted to say something, but seeing the emperor's moved face, she felt that it was rare for the empress dowager to be willing to show her true feelings. She paused, and finally did not dare to interfere.
Soon the imperial physician arrived and concluded that the fetus was in an abnormal position and had a difficult labor. The labor-inducing drug was also administered, but due to the delay, Zhang Guifen had lost her strength and eventually fell into a coma after giving birth to a thin and weak prince under the manual pushing of the midwife.
Zhang Guifen was in a coma. The imperial physician tried his best to save her but could not save her life at such a fast rate. On the day of the little prince's third birthday, his biological mother passed away in her sleep.
No matter how much the emperor liked Li Jieyu at this time, he did not dare to protect her. When the Duke of Ying and other Zhang family forces strongly petitioned for the death penalty for the culprit Li Jieyu, the emperor tried his best to fight for it, and finally saved Li Jieyu's life. He only demoted Li Jieyu to a commoner and sent her to the cold palace.
The emperor thought that he had done his best, but Li Jieyu, who was spoiled by the emperor, didn't think so. She just felt that all the sweet words the emperor said to her in the past were all lies. Her life now was obviously better than when she was a palace maid, but Li Jieyu felt like she had fallen from heaven to hell. She felt that the emperor had deceived her. Anger erupted in Li Jieyu's chest, and love and hate intertwined in Li Jieyu's heart.
The little prince was born less than nine months prematurely and experienced a difficult delivery. His health was really poor. The emperor himself was still a teenager and had no experience in taking care of a baby. At this time, he finally remembered his biological mother Qin Wanrong.
He first asked Qin Wanrong several times to help him take care of the prince. After being rejected by Qin Wanrong, he listened to someone's advice and cruelly put the little prince in Qin Wanrong's Ciren Palace and forced Qin Wanrong to take care of him.
Duke Yingguo outside the palace had already learned the whole story of Zhang Guifen's death in childbirth from the palace servants who served her. He resented Concubine Li who harmed his daughter, and naturally he also resented the emperor who protected Concubine Li. As for the Empress Dowager, Duke Yingguo only felt ashamed. It was his daughter who did not do what a daughter-in-law should do. If the Empress Dowager had not finally given up and sent someone to call the imperial physician, perhaps even the baby in his daughter's belly would not have been saved.
Upon learning that the little prince was born prematurely and was weak, the Duke of England was extremely worried outside the palace. Even though the palace maids and wet nurses who took care of the little prince were sent to the palace by the Duke of England's mansion, the Duke of England still couldn't feel at ease.
Although the Duke of Ying felt embarrassed, he still had his eye on his grandmother, Qin Wanrong. The reason why the emperor wanted to hand the little prince over to the Queen Mother for upbringing and finally succeeded was due to the Duke of Ying's mansion.
After the death of the queen, the emperor should observe mourning for his wife for one year. For this reason, Qin Wanrong deliberately postponed the emperor's plan to recruit concubines. Unexpectedly, this gave Li Jieyu an opportunity. The emperor had no new people around him, and he still had feelings for Li Jieyu. Even though Li Jieyu was banished to the cold palace, she still tried to find a way to reunite with the emperor.
A little farewell is better than a wedding!
After the reconciliation, the emperor's "love" with Li Shuren from the cold palace became more intense. Perhaps it was the feeling of having an affair that made the emperor addicted, or perhaps it was the feeling of having nothing to worry about that made the emperor indulge himself, or perhaps Li Shuren was really the emperor's true love. In short, before this incident broke out, the emperor would go to the cold palace to make love with Li Shuren almost every day.
A normal man would become weak if he did this, not to mention that the emperor was in poor health to begin with. After two months of indulgence, the emperor vomited blood and fainted on Li Shuren's couch.
The emperor vomited blood and fainted, which immediately caused the incident to be exposed. Ministers wrote to the emperor one after another to persuade him to sentence Li Shuren to death, and called Li Shuren a witch.
After the emperor woke up, the imperial physician stayed by the dragon bed, while ministers and others stayed in the Zhaoren Hall.
"What's wrong with me?"
The emperor wanted to get up, but he felt so weak that he couldn't move. His chest ached with every breath, and there was a bloody taste in his mouth. He turned his head with great effort and looked around. He saw that the imperial doctors were kneeling in front of his bed, and through the curtain, he saw that the ministers were kneeling in the hall.
This scene really made it difficult for the official not to panic. He seemed to be back to the day when the old official passed away. It was the same scene and the same crowd. The only difference was that it was not him lying there at that time.
"Tell me! What happened to me? Tell me!"
The official thought that he spoke with all his might and still sounded as majestic as before, but he did not realize that his voice was so soft that those around him could not even detect it if they did not listen carefully.
Fortunately, Liang Duzhi's apprentice was very observant and noticed that the emperor had woken up. He stepped forward with surprise to listen to the order and immediately sent a message to the imperial physician.
The imperial doctors all turned pale, and no one dared to speak first. Finally, the chief imperial doctor took a deep breath and stepped forward: "Your Majesty, you have been poisoned by a secret medicine, and your vitality has been severely damaged. There is no way to save you."
"Ahem! No way! How could I be powerless to save the situation? I'm still young. I'm only nineteen years old!"
"Quacks, quacks! You are just a bunch of quacks!"
"Quick, send out an imperial edict to summon all the doctors in the Song Dynasty and ask them to come and treat me!"
"Someone, ahem, someone, come here! Quickly drag these quack doctors away and beat them to death!"
All the imperial doctors present kowtowed and begged for mercy frantically, but the emperor remained unmoved. Just when the imperial doctors were about to accept their fate, Qin Wanrong appeared.
"Zhao Qi, are you crazy?"
"Do you want to be known as a tyrant and bloodthirsty person after you die, in addition to being killed by a woman's belly?"
"Empress Dowager!!!"
Qin Wanrong's voice was loud and almost everyone heard it. Everyone was so stimulated by Qin Wanrong's straightforward words that they wanted to faint.
These are the words of the Queen Mother, they cannot bear to hear them!!!
