If there are any benefits in the promotion of the position, it is that it is more and more convenient for Xu Xun to read books. In the past, when she was still the grandson Jieyu, at most she just exchanged books with a few sisters, and when she was the prince, she was not sick, so she was basically outside, so I won't say much, and when she was promoted to Concubine Zhuang, she could send someone to the Sixth Bureau and a Division to borrow books and periodicals, and with the rise of the tide, Xu Xun can now even let the inner servant go to the inner house to borrow books at will, such as many volumes of "Literature Dacheng", which are rare among the people, even the big families and wealthy families are also rare, and they are only copied when they searched for books. Now that the government has a lot of money, the borrowing procedures are also troublesome, and even people with a narrower knowledge will not know that this book is included in the "Literature Dacheng". However, Xu Xun can calmly choose from the catalog and ask people to borrow it at any time, if he encounters a good book he likes, it is not difficult for people to copy a collection by hand.

It's been two months since she had been suffering from malaria in Beijing, and of course she tried to read as many medical books as she could about malaria. Malaria is a disease that is better than other epidemics, at least not a terminal disease that will kill you. Adults who are strong and strong are not unlikely to survive, but children are prone to die after illness. Those civilians died of illness because their families were poor, doctors were incompetent, and the emperor was in the royal family, although the possibility of an accident was not impossible, but there was still a great hope for recovery. - Xu Xun can only comfort herself like this now, she has been thinking about the words in the medical book all the way, looking for arguments that the emperor can recover, but her heart is pounding, and she can't calm down at all.

It's not dawn yet, and even the palace door hasn't opened, but fortunately, the emperor sleeps in the Qianqing Palace tonight, if it's in the south, he wants to open the door and enter the harem, and the eunuchs around him don't have this permission. Xu Xun didn't have time to ask someone to prepare a sedan chair, so he rinsed his mouth casually as soon as he changed his clothes, opened his legs and hurried slowly, and entered the Qianqing Palace in a short time. There was no need for anyone to inform her, she lifted the curtain and went straight into the inner room where the emperor was - seeing Ma Shi and Imperial Physician Liu whispering in the corner, she felt a little relieved: Fortunately, since the malaria epidemic began, Imperial Physician Liu has rarely been released from the palace, and there has always been a door in the palace to the inner peace hall, this door is not closed day and night, so that the patient can see a doctor in time, otherwise, if the door is opened at night to find the imperial doctor, not to mention how big the movement is.

"How is Big Brother now?" She glanced at the bed, saw that it was very quiet, and knew that most of it was after the swing, and entered a stable period and began to fall asleep, so she also lowered her voice, and at this time, she didn't care about any male and female defenses, and directly approached Ma Shi and Imperial Doctor Liu and asked, "Did you have a bad attack just now?" ”

Imperial Physician Liu and Ma Shi hadn't noticed her coming, and when they heard the voice, they all hurriedly saluted, and Ma Shi said with a sad face, "Amazing, I twitched in my sleep, and the palace maid saw it at night, and hurriedly called the slave maid - the slave didn't know what to do, and in a hurry, I just thought about inviting Imperial Doctor Liu to come first." The emperor had a seizure for a while, and then he thought of reporting to Niangniang and asking Niangniang to forgive her sins. ”

The patient who committed malaria was cold and hot for a while, and there were already many requirements, and Ma Shicang responded everywhere, and he had done a good job, Xu Xun nodded, and asked Mrs. Liu again, "How many days does big brother get malaria?" ”

This time malaria, there is a vivax malaria, there is a malaria malaria, if it is a malaria malaria, it doesn't seem so terrible, but Xu Xun saw Imperial Doctor Liu's expression, he knew that it was not good, and his heart sank, and sure enough, he heard Imperial Doctor Liu say, "This ...... As Wei Chen can see, he is only afraid that Bixia suffers, not these two malaria. He had a sudden onset, a serious illness, a short pulse, and a very difficult initial episode...... It's more like malaria. ”

"Bad malaria?" Xu Xun repeated—if it weren't for the fact that she had been studying malaria recently, she wouldn't have known what she was talking about. It is said that malaria has a fairly rare disease, which is more severe than all vivax malaria and malaria malaria, so it is called malaria. It's just an adult, and it's very dangerous. "That, that big brother's condition, you watch—"

Imperial Physician Liu's expression was enough to answer everything, Xu Xun's already troubled mind was completely blank for a moment, and for a while, she didn't know how to react at all, so she could only stare at Imperial Physician Liu blankly, unable to even say a word.

Ma Shixian may have heard about this, he was calmer than Xu Xun, and he was still struggling to persuade her at this time, "Niangniang, this matter ...... The matter ...... Now that this is the case......"

There was also a cry as she spoke, "Niangniang, please take care of yourself, everything in the palace still needs you to preside!" ”

Xu Xun suddenly came back to her senses, only to feel that her whole body was suddenly sore, her head was also swollen and painful, her heart was like being held in her hand and kneaded wantonly, it was painful and tight, and she could barely breathe - she knew for the first time that people could not even stand when they were extremely excited, and if she was now, her feet were weak, and she fell to the ground in a trance, and if it wasn't for Ma Shiyi to pull her, she would have fainted.

Now at this time, I can't care so much, Imperial Doctor Liu instructed Ma Shi, pinched her hard, and took a glass of cold water and splashed it on her head, Xu Xun saw that they had finished this, but it wasn't until the cold water splashed her head that she was a little sober, she shook her head, tried to gather her spirit, and asked, "What time is it now." ”

"In half an hour, the palace door can be opened." Ma Shi estimated that he had already thought about the whole jihua, and he answered smoothly at this time.

"I can't wait for half an hour, so I'll invite the old lady to come over immediately, and the queen mother." Xu Xundao, "Wait for the two ladies to come, and then make plans." ”

Ma Shi naturally went to do things immediately, and Xu Xun asked Imperial Doctor Liu again, "Has the medicine been prescribed?" ”

"It's already time to match." Imperial Physician Liu only said, "It's frying." ”

After everything that should be done was done, Xu Xun felt weak again, she walked to the bed and sat down, and saw that the emperor had a ruddy face, covered a thin quilt and slept with his eyes closed, looking extremely healthy, not like he was sick at all. Suddenly her heart was extremely sad: she always thought that he would live a hundred years old, at least like his grandfather, and he would have no problem living to sixty or seventy. The course of the disease is very short, almost not a few hours.

According to the medical book, the faster and more ferocious the malaria attack, it also means that the miasma is deeper......

Since he ascended the throne, except for the grass, almost no acquaintances of Xu Xun have died, Emperor Wen and Emperor Zhao She was not familiar with it, and the Lin Meiren back then went relatively far away, that is, the martyred Concubine Han Li and others, after all, she has not met too many times, and no one is as familiar as her and the emperor. Xu Xun thought that she was used to seeing the warmth and coldness of the world, especially after becoming a mother, she was not qualified to be sad anymore, and she was afraid and afraid of anything all day long. Seeing the emperor like this at this time, she knew what it meant to be afraid and what it meant to be helpless.

She might be dying, and vaguely, she was aware of the possibility. What about the Imperial Concubine? Although the queen and her are not in the same relationship, but the two have several grievances, and now she is good to herself, but because the queen mother is of high seniority, if the emperor dies, she will be the queen mother...... Is Guo Guifei's precedent far away? The Queen Mother didn't like her much, but she used her favor to balance the queen, and when the time came, she might not speak for her.

It is likely that a few days after he took his last breath, she will be taken to Jingyang Palace, rewarded with a few bites of severed head rice, and under Sun's farewell, she will step on the small bench, put her head into the white silk ring, and walk on the road of no return...... She's really going to die.

However, she was not afraid of this now, and she didn't think about how to escape the fate of martyrdom, her attention was all focused on the black strong man in front of her, she couldn't believe it...... She just couldn't accept it, this person, this person she hated and feared, despised and disdained, was really going to die.

Her opinion of him has always been complicated, from the beginning, she admired him, revered him, and flattered him, she wanted to cling to him and find a place in the court, and then, slowly, she understood him, and slowly lost her reverence for him, she began to look down on him, after all, he was also a person, not as flawless as she thought at the beginning, in fact, he was so selfish and arrogant, he felt that everyone should pay attention to him, and the little things he gave out casually, others should treasure them like treasures, satisfied, and then worshiped and loved him from the bottom of my heart......

He has always been very good to her, there is nothing to pick, but her feelings about him have always been very complicated, sometimes she feels that she has seen through him, he deserves to be used by everyone, this is all his own fault, but sometimes she feels that he is also not easy, and very pitiful. Every time he thought she loved him specially, she was upset...... The Emperor was kind to her because she was the only one of them who did not lie to him, but she deceived her only on one thing - she never spoke, did not lie, but did not correct his misunderstanding: he always thought that she really liked him, and loved him from the bottom of her heart.

She never had, she didn't know Weishenme, he had always been nice to her, at least much better than many people, but she just couldn't help it, she always felt that it wasn't enough.

She angered him, the two quarreled for the first time, she came here to make amends, crying profusely, the two were reconciled, how well did he treat her? With such a serious disobedience, she cried a few times and was fine. She should be grateful to him, she should be satisfied with the privilege he has given, but she doesn't, she doesn't feel that it is enough.

She went to Nannei, he came to see her, it was almost a sin that could kill her, a few tears, a few words from the heart would be fine, wasn't he good enough for her? Queen Hu doesn't know how much to envy her!

But she didn't think it was enough.

All the good he has done to her over the years, she has never felt enough, she has not complained about herself in her heart, weishenme is so dissatisfied, what is she asking for. People's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, and she should not be such a greedy and endless person. Weishenme only in a few moments, like a spark, like a dream, short moments, she felt satisfied, she felt that she was really happy with him, but this joy was just like a dream, after a while, she was broken. She kept thinking, always wondering if he had seen through it, if he was also suspicious, if he had some feelings, that she was also lying to him, that she really didn't like him...... Sometimes she also felt tired of getting along with him, and even if she no longer cared about the funeral, there were always these things that worried her.

The funny thing is that at this time, she realized that she really liked him very much after all, even if he was so hateful, so selfish, arrogant, ignorant, and arrogant, even if she thought that she had been perfunctory to him, in those quiet days, in those 'Eternal Life Hall on the seventh day of July, when no one whispered in the middle of the night', in those 'when the west wind came, I was afraid that the year would change secretly'...... In this ordinary day together, she is used to being good to her after all, and she is used to being good to him. She was worried that his 'deception' would be seen through by him, not that he would turn his face ruthlessly in anger, not that she would be given death and imprisoned...... She had already seen through these things, so what was there to worry about?

She was worried that he would be disappointed, he would be sad, that there would not be many people in this world to trust, and now that she was missing, how lonely should he be?

Xu Xun, how uncompetitive are you? She thought, as if another self was sneering and asking: You may be dying soon, just because he is dead, and half of your sisters and colleagues are going to die, and you are still sad that he is going to die, how cheap are you?

yes, how cheap is that? Could it be that she has finally been raised to become a dog, knowing that the day of her cooking is just ahead, but she still has to struggle and leap, wailing for her dying master?

Even if you die, you have to die with your head held high, and you have to die like a person!

She raised her hand, wanting to slap herself again, but just then the Emperor groaned—and he turned and fell back into a deep sleep, with only a frowning brow, as if to suggest that he was in his sleep and suffering from malaria.

Looking at his face that hid pain, I don't know why, Xu Xun's hand couldn't fall, she closed her eyes and struggled for a moment, and suddenly covered her face with her hands, and cried low and sadly.

The Queen Mother was put into the inner room.

No matter what discord and knot there are between mother and son, or whether they are estranged or not, this is always the firstborn child she is looking forward to in ten months, and before she reaches the age of forty, she suddenly contracted malaria - the queen mother is an old man in this palace for many years, I don't know how many patients she has sent away, how can she not hear the tone of the messenger? Vicious malaria and bad malaria, although I have never heard of it, but just listen to that breath, you will know it......

The Queen Mother almost didn't have her back at that time, if it weren't for Aunt Qiao and the others, they immediately took the ginseng pills that dispel blood stasis and invigorate blood and nourish vitality, but I was afraid that there would be many patients in the palace immediately. It's easy to recover, and I can't take any more rest, so I immediately rushed to the Qianqing Palace. The malaria attack has always been relatively mild at the beginning, and I have never heard of the fact that I have just gone out during the day and become ill immediately at night, and the Queen Mother is frightened, so I am afraid that I will go late......

Fortunately, although the atmosphere in the Qianqing Palace was depressing, the personnel acted in an orderly manner, and when they saw her enter the back room, the queen and the imperial concubine both put aside their work and came over to salute - these two people are the most respectful and live close to each other, and after the imperial concubine heard the news, she should have notified the two palaces, and the queen naturally arrived earlier than her.

The eye circles of both of them were red, and the imperial concubine's eye bubbles were red and swollen, and she never cried less. The queen mother's heart was even tighter, she rushed to the side of the bed, and saw that her son's sleeping face was quite stable, but there were slight sweat marks on the forehead, she breathed a long sigh of relief, and her heart was a little calm, "Have you taken medicine?" ”

"I just picked it up and ate it." The imperial concubine's voice was choked and hoarse, "Old lady, at this time, it is close to the early dynasty......"

The Queen Mother had just encountered an accident, her mind was fluctuating, and she didn't understand a trace of the imperial concubine for a while, she glanced at her blankly, or the queen said, "Today there is a Chang Dynasty, and the eldest brother will definitely not be able to pass now." ”

Her voice was also quite hoarse, it seemed that she was ten years older than usual, in front of the current situation, the Queen Mother's disgust for her couldn't help but put away, but the closeness of being in the same boat prevailed, she said, "When I took the medicine just now, did Da Lang say anything?" ”

"The eldest brother was weak and thirsty, and he barely fell asleep after taking the medicine." The imperial concubine shook her head, "Imperial Doctor Liu said that he should not be too disturbed to rest, and said that maybe the eldest brother has no sense of time at all now, and he has forgotten the affairs of the Chang Dynasty......

The Queen Mother's heart was sad and heavy, and tears couldn't help but fall, but after all, she was an experienced person, and she knew that national affairs came first, so she stabilized in a moment, and said in a deep voice, "This is a big matter, don't hide it from your ministers." It's the time before the court, right? Ma Shi, you send someone to guard the gate of the palace, bring the three prime ministers here, and see Dalang first. ”

Ma Shi retreated, and the Queen Mother glanced at Xu Xun with some dissatisfaction, "Although outside the palace gate, we and other concubines are not allowed to ask, but you should also send someone to inform the three ministers first, now that there is a shortage of people in the Chang Dynasty, and there are people guarding the palace gate, the court will inevitably be shaken." ”

The corners of the imperial concubine's lips twitched, but she didn't make a sound, but the queen said, "Queen Mother, the eldest brother's illness is already at night, and it is impossible to cancel the Chang Dynasty in any case. In any case, I am afraid that this matter will be spread. ”

Why doesn't the Queen Mother know this? In fact, she was also satisfied that the imperial concubine or the queen did not make any decisions, so she still waited for her to come to the decision, but she was upset and couldn't help but be angry. Now that he had a word from the queen, he had no intention of arguing about anything, sighed irritably, and asked about the emperor's illness again.

Among the officials of the Imperial Hospital, Imperial Doctor Liu is one, as well as the medical officer, the hospital order, etc., have all been summoned in, and now they are in the side house to demonstrate the prescription, after the Queen Mother listened to the return of the imperial concubine, she was very worried in her heart, and couldn't help but say, "I'm afraid that such nonsense is not as good as the prescription prescribed by an imperial doctor!" ”

If one person comes to govern, even if it is bad, there is nothing to say, bad luck is it, but will do his best, now there is debate, there are differences, there must be a choice, this is a lot of scheming. For example, if I say A, you say B, Zuihou judges that it is A, but the emperor does not get better after taking the medicine, then I must be unlucky, and you say B's will benefit. So I say A you say B, the result of zuihou is often not A B, but C of A and B, so how good can the effect of such a prescription be? The concubines of the harem have only used a fixed doctor for a long time, and this is the reason. The queen and the imperial concubine all understood, and the queen sighed, "It's bad malaria and difficult to treat, no one is good at it, and the rules are so ......."

The Queen Mother frowned, and ordered, "Go and write down everyone's names, just say a word, if the big man is not good, all of them will be buried together, if it is good, everyone will be rewarded regardless of before and after." ”

When the emperor had an accident, she was the undisputed master and mother, and everyone was instructed to do things on their own. The Queen Mother also instructed the imperial concubine, "Let the concubines arrange shifts to serve the sick in one shift......

She couldn't help but choke up, "As for the children, the prince's status is noble, so don't come, Zhuang'er is young and a man, so you don't have to come." The remaining three daughters should all come together to serve their father and do their filial piety, which may be ......"

Whether malaria can be transmitted or not is still inconclusive, and it seems that the chance of contracting the disease is not very high when taking care of the sick. But even if there is a slight opportunity, in order to be safe, two boys cannot be allowed to come, as for the girls, compared to filial piety, this risk must be taken, and it must not be because of the fear of infection, so that the emperor is seriously ill and does not have a second generation to serve. The importance here, the queen mother believes that the two daughters-in-law are clear, although they are a little reluctant, but the queen is the leader, and the imperial concubine is second, and she still responds.

So far, the run-in of the three teams has been relatively smooth, the queen mother was satisfied, glanced at the queen, and said, "The elders of the pavilion will come in later, you should avoid going out now, the queen takes good care of the prince, don't let her also get sick, the general affairs are still managed by the imperial concubine, and the two of you don't need to be on duty to serve the sick." ”

Having said that, she also knew that the two of them must have come over from time to time at this time. To tell the truth, it is reasonable for the imperial concubine to be so depressed, but she didn't expect that the queen would be so emotional, according to the queen mother's consistent impression of her, at this time, she should be a little happy in her heart......

Because of this sudden stimulus, her mind is now clear and excited, and countless thoughts come up one after another, worried, sad, and helpless, all kinds of emotions are mixed together. Just a little change in her opinion of the queen, the queen mother immediately became worried: if something happened to Da Lang, how could this child sit on the throne? It's only been a few years since I went to school, and I haven't left the pavilion to read the scriptures! Besides, I haven't had flowers when I'm young, in case smallpox is popular......

Just when he wanted to get into trouble, a person suddenly ran in from outside the house, knelt on the ground and said, "Back to the words of the three mothers - it's not good!" Concubine Luo also made a swing! ”

The queen mother's heart was numb, she almost couldn't breathe, and it was easy to slow down, but she didn't even have the strength to raise her hand, and the queen and the imperial concubine were also surprised, and they took a beat to notice her situation. The Queen Mother didn't care about anything else, grabbed the queen's hand, and said softly and laboriously, "Bolt!" Bolts! ”

The queen was also as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, her face was distorted, and when she heard the queen mother speak, she hurriedly said, "The daughter-in-law knows, and the daughter-in-law will go to settle down immediately!" ”

Luo Concubine's life and death are not enough to move the three of them together, the problem is that Luo Concubine has always been Bolt's nanny, she is sick, so ...... What about bolts?
