Chapter 495 The matter of the palace, the dust has settled
The moment he saw Xie Xun, Qin Rushuang's blood finally flowed back from his fingertips to his heart. Only then did he realize how fast his heart was beating.
My heart, which had been hanging on, finally relaxed.
Behind Xie Xun, Dr. Cao, who was carrying a medicine box, stumbled after him. He was obviously frightened by the chaotic situation in the palace.
Several pavilion elders in the palace had already opened the door. When they saw Xie Xun who was looking so solemn outside, they all shouted, "God bless, God bless King Huai for coming back! Don't let Prince Ning, a traitor and traitor, succeed!"
Xie Xun cast a reassuring look at Qin Rushuang.
Xie Xun hurriedly brought Dr. Cao in, and explained to Qin Rushuang in a low voice, "I have been guarding against Lao Si before, just because I was afraid that he would suddenly attack my father. If something unexpected happened to my father, there must be someone in the imperial hospital."
A suspicious person, and the courtiers must not trust all the imperial doctors, so I took Dr. Cao out of the palace some time in advance. Before my father suddenly fell into coma, he was not in the palace, so this should be a good idea for the old ministers.
It’s more convincing for us.”
Doctor Cao entered the palace with a medicine box and explained to the ministers: "Xiaoguan has been ill these days and has been recuperating in the palace. I don't know that such a big event has happened in the palace. Can I ask your Majesty to diagnose it?"
"
Sure enough, when the courtiers heard that Dr. Cao said that he was not in the palace at the time of the incident, but at home, they lowered their guard against him and made way for Dr. Cao to diagnose.
Seeing that the courtiers' attention was focused on Emperor Qi, Shen Xiaoyang straightened out his bloody clothes, walked towards Qin Rushuang, and whispered, "I'll take you to see Linbao."
Xie Xun on the side heard the words and immediately said, "The imperial doctor and the elders are watching here. The troops of Prince Ning outside have been controlled. I will go and see the child first.
Only then did Mr. Lin Ge realize that when Shen Xiaoyang entered the palace, he brought the young son who was pregnant with the king, but the child was not in the palace at this time.
After a moment's thought, he understood that Shen Xiaoyang must have thought that an accident would happen, so he put the child in a safe place first, so he nodded with understanding and said, "You go ahead."
Shen Xiaoyang explained to the two of them as they walked, "I brought the child to the palace and vaguely noticed something was wrong, so I asked Qian Ertong to take the child and hide in the palace of the imperial concubine first. Let them come if something unexpected happens.
Notify me, but I haven’t seen anyone from the imperial concubine’s palace coming, the child should be safe.”
Qin Rushuang nodded, quickened her pace, and arrived at the imperial concubine's palace a moment later.
Outside the palace, Grandma Yinghong, along with several maids and eunuchs, guarded the door vigilantly. When she saw Qin Rushuang and Xie Xun coming, her eyes turned red: "Prince and concubine, you are here, come in quickly."
After opening the courtyard door, the imperial concubine in the courtyard was holding Linbao tightly, with Qian Ertong guarding her.
Seeing Xie Xun coming, the imperial concubine could hardly keep her balance, "Xun'er! You're finally here!"
Xie Xun walked over to comfort her and said, "Don't worry, mother and concubine, the rebellious officials and traitors are all under control."
When Qin Rushuang took Linbao from the imperial concubine, she discovered that there were dark stains on Linbao's clothes. The imperial concubine must have been too nervous and hard when hugging her, and her sweat was soaked in it.
Qin Rushuang took Linbao. What was rare was that in such a panic, Linbao was not frightened or cried.
When I saw my father and mother coming, I just vomited bubbles in excitement, said ahhhh twice and then called mother.
Qin Rushuang held Linbao tightly in her arms.
After successfully receiving the Linbao, the burden on the couple's hearts was suddenly relieved.
Xie Xun took the Linbao, put it in the imperial concubine's arms again, and said to Qin Rushuang, "Come here, I have a few words to say to you."
The two of them withdrew to a quiet and deserted corner. Xie Xun did not give in. He took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, which was the same bottle of medicine they had brought from the southwest.
"On the way here, I asked Dr. Cao. Dr. Cao said that he had a long-lost acupuncture technique in his hand, which has been classified as a forbidden technique. If he uses acupuncture, he can wake up my father and seal him.
The pain points all over his body can allow him to spend the last three days of his life safely."
Qin Rushuang looked at the bottle of medicine in his hand and asked, "Is the prince thinking whether he should let his father spend those three days in peace and contentment, or give him the medicine that can extend his life for thirty days?"
Xie Xun was silent for a while, and did not answer Qin Rushuang's question directly, but said: "For me, although he is always targeted and fearful, he has no nurturing kindness... but he... gave birth to me after all."
Qin Rushuang took the next bottle of medicine and said: "I suggest that the prince let Dr. Cao give your majesty the acupuncture first, and then wait until he wakes up and then ask him if he wants to use this medicine. As for him asking about the origin of this medicine, you
Just say I brought it here."
Xie Xun's eyes were shocked, "Why do you have to do this for me..."
This bottle of medicine seems to be a taboo. No matter what, as long as the existence of this medicine is announced to the world, the person who brought the medicine will definitely be criticized by the ministers.
Or maybe after waking up, Emperor Qi turned against him and blamed the two of them for murder. No one could bear the charge of such treason.
Qin Rushuang smiled and said, "You don't have to think too much, Your Majesty. I just think that this throne has come in a twist and turn. It's already the last moment, and I really don't want to cause any more surprises."
"And..." Qin Rushuang smiled sarcastically and said, "Have I done too many treasonous things? I made peace with the prince, and led troops to the border as a woman... These things happened one after another, even without this
As for the subsequent events, the ministers in the court have already disliked me, and if I don’t bite them if there are too many lice, it doesn’t matter.”
Xie Xun knew that what she said was just an excuse.
If he were to be accused of such treason and injuring the body of a dragon, if he ascended to the throne of God in the future, this stain would accompany him throughout his life, and even be written into the history books a hundred years later.
Xie Xun's thoughts drifted far away, and his eyes kept falling on the bottle of medicine held by Qin Rushuang.
After thinking for a long time, he finally said: "Let's go back to the palace. Let Dr. Cao perform the acupuncture first, and then we can talk about it after my father wakes up."
Qin Rushuang just assumed that Xie Xun agreed to her proposal, shrugged indifferently, and followed Xie Xun out. To be honest, she really didn't care about these charges.
She had been carefree and wanton all her life, but it was Xie Xun's incident that made her suffer enough from the pain of love.
Apart from that, what else is there?
This kind of indifferent accusation is of no importance to her, because he has always relied on what he holds in his hands, not the illusory favor of the Tian family.
