Chapter 264: Fear

Ouyang Shu suddenly remembered the words of the little yellow door a few days ago, it turned out that the Queen Mother had been sick for a long time. In other words, this is chronic poisoning, which of course will not be difficult to treat, but why has it been delayed for so long? The only possibility is that someone does not want the Queen Mother's illness to be cured, and this person can only be one person

Ouyang Shu suddenly felt his heart pounding. His palms couldn't help but overflow with sweat, and his forehead began to feel wet.

Zhao Jing on the side kept staring at Ouyang Shu, as if she wanted to see a hint from his expression. Seeing Ouyang Shu's expression different, he couldn't help but be worried. Although Empress Dowager Xiang is not her and Zhao Xu's biological mother, when their biological mother Concubine Zhu was there, she was even suppressed by Empress Dowager Xiang in many ways, but Empress Dowager Xiang is still very good to their brother and sister.

Especially after Empress Dowager Xiang fell ill, even if Zhao Jing was dissatisfied with her before, she had already put it aside, and her concern for Empress Dowager Xiang at the moment was purely from her heart.

Zhao Jing is no stranger to Ouyang Shu, there is even an inexplicable relationship between the two, Zhao Jing's tone is still involuntarily a little unintentionally intimate, fortunately, everyone next to her is focused on the Empress Dowager Xiang, but they don't feel anything wrong.

Ouyang Shu's heart was extremely chaotic, he gently withdrew his hand from the meridians of the Empress Dowager Xiang, and asked tentatively: "Haven't you asked the imperial doctor to take a look at this disease?"

Zhao Jingnunu mouthed, and said: The best imperial doctors are here, they are all helpless, otherwise, they will not think of you!

Ouyang Shu turned his head in astonishment, but saw that there were still a few men kneeling on the side, most of them were in green official uniforms, and only one was wearing a scarlet official uniform like himself.

Ouyang Shu smiled bitterly in his heart, it turned out that so many people were kneeling here, and he didn't even notice it, these were all too doctors. The one wearing the scarlet official uniform should be the first or second in command of the Tai Hospital's level at the level of the Imperial Doctor Ling.

Ouyang Shudao: Haven't they seen the problem?

A trace of disdain flashed in Zhao Jing's eyes, and said: A group of waste, as a doctor, but they can't worry about the king, they are really ashamed of the official uniform on their bodies.

Ouyang Shu only smiled bitterly, he knew that not to mention the imperial doctor, even the healers with slightly better medical skills could see that this was poisoning, and the question was only which kind of poison it was. However, in this palace, there are many people around the Queen Mother to serve, what kind of food she enters, what kind of flowers and plants she approaches, etc., there are ways to find out, and it is not very difficult to find out the person who poisoned and the method of poisoning through these clues.

But so many imperial doctors even said that they didn't know about this matter, and the only possibility was that they were also aware of the same problem as themselves. It's just that the closer they get to the truth, the less they dare to tell the truth. They knew that Zhao Xu was likely to kill people in order to keep secrets, but they still couldn't say it. If they don't speak out, they will only die. In order not to arouse suspicion, Zhao Xu will not offend their families, but if they say it, Zhao Xu will probably not even let their family go.

These people have calculated this account very clearly.

Just as he was thinking about it, Ouyang Shu's man in the scarlet official uniform inadvertently raised his head, and this time, Ouyang Shu saw his true face.

Ouyang Shu was suddenly shocked, this person had a scruffy beard, yellow skin, and the wrinkles on his forehead were deeply imprinted, as if they had been chiseled out of a chisel.

He had been imprisoned in this palace for several days! Ouyang Shu came to a conclusion. The reason is simple. When it was impossible for the officials of the Great Song Dynasty to face the saint, they didn't even repair their beards, and the current image of this person was seen by the imperial history, which was enough to refer to him as a monarch and lose his manners, and he couldn't argue at all.

Ouyang Shu's heart was in turmoil for a while, he couldn't cure this disease. After all, the palace is Zhao Xu's territory, and it is really unwise to fight him on his territory, but if you say no, you will fall into the general situation of these people, which is also terrifying.

Looking at the eager look in Zhao Jing's eyes, Ouyang Shu only felt bitter in his throat, and after weighing it for a while, Ouyang Shu still made up his mind: Your Highness, this disease is probably a bit tricky, and Wei Chen has to discuss it with a few imperial doctors before he can answer.

A hint of disappointment flashed in Zhao Jing's eyes. In fact, due to Ouyang Shu's repeated rescues, when she is facing despair now, the first thing that comes to mind is Ouyang Shu. Although this treatment was not the same thing as her previous two distresses, she still couldn't help but believe that Ouyang Shu would have a way to solve this matter. But this time, Ouyang Shu disappointed her.

Immediately, Zhao Jing felt a trace of apology in her heart. Just now, she once said that these imperial doctors were waste, but Ouyang Shu was also helpless, and naturally they were also waste.

At this embarrassing time, I suddenly heard the voice of the Queen Mother and said: Forget it, since Li Aiqing can't be treated, it's okay. Anyway, the old man has lived this year, and now he is following the first emperor, which is not considered a premature life. Besides, what kind of glory and wealth have been enjoyed by the old body in this life, whether it is food, clothing, housing, or use, all of them are the best in the world. As women, it is much more difficult for us to leave such a mark in this history than men. The old body can be so honored, and there is no regret.

Her words were naturally for Zhao Jing, and Ouyang Shu nodded secretly when she heard it, it is really rare for a person to have a state of mind. Zhao Jing hurriedly bent down, grabbed the hand of the Empress Dowager Xiang, and said: Your old man is not going to talk nonsense, the sixth brother is the king of a country, and he is not afraid that he will not find a strange person who can cure your old man's disease. Yes, mother, please rest assured, this disease, according to the son, is not a big deal. In my opinion, God has no other intention to add this illness to your old man, just because your old man has worked too hard for the affairs of our children, and God is using this to force your old man to take a good rest! A voice came from far away, getting closer and closer, and by the time the word came, the voice had already reached Ouyang Shu's ears. And right in front of his eyes, Zhao Xu stood with a smile on his face.

Empress Dowager Xiang's face was covered by a curtain, and everyone couldn't see her face clearly, but judging from her tone, she was still very happy about Zhao Xu's arrival: The emperor is here, why did you come here today?

Zhao Xu said with a smile: In the past few days, because the envoys from Liao and Xia have come to the court, they have been busy with this matter. The envoys of both countries had already returned, and when they were finally free, they immediately came to see their mother, who felt better?

Ouyang Shu looked at Zhao Xu's harmless smile, and his heart was dark. It seems that he has always underestimated Zhao Xu, this person is extremely thick-skinned and extremely ruthless, and it is really frightening to be able to interpret the four words hidden in the smile into such a situation.

As soon as Empress Dowager Xiang heard that Zhao Xu was busy with state affairs, she immediately came to see her, and she was also very relieved. She smiled and said: If you can have this filial piety, the old body will be very comforted. Your own health is not good, and you should pay attention to your own rest, and if you can leave those state affairs to your subordinates, you will leave them to do. Your father said back then that the emperor is not more capable than capable, but more than employing people. If an emperor is tired and his ministers are idle, no matter how much he works with state affairs, he is just a faint king who has no knowledge of people. You don't want to be an emperor like that, you know?
