Chapter 31: The Sin of Bullying
Shoukang Palace, the main hall is brightly lit, the Empress Dowager is crooked on the chair, half-squinting, slowly twisting the eight treasures auspicious bracelet in her hand.
There is a thick sandalwood wafting in the hall, and there is an inexplicable sense of age.
Grandma Wu introduced Imperial Doctor Wu into the hall, took a few steps forward, whispered a few words in the ear of the Empress Dowager, and then stepped aside.
Imperial Doctor Wu peeked at the Empress Dowager through the bright light, and found that she didn't look sick at all, and couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.
Extremely cautious, Imperial Physician Wu stood without saying a word, with the word "cautious" in capital letters from head to toe.
No one spoke in the hall, except for the slight clicking sound of the beads in the Empress Dowager's hand as she turned, and the occasional crackling sound of the wick.
Thinking that Grandma Wu whispered in the Empress Dowager's ear before, maybe she had already told the Empress Dowager about her stay outside the cold palace just now.
With the experience and experience of the Empress Dowager and Grandma Wu, they would never believe Hu Si's nonsense just now.
But what did the Empress Dowager suddenly send him for?
The oppressive feeling caused by this silence made the air turn into a gel, making it difficult for people to breathe, especially Imperial Doctor Wu, who kept his head down.
Imperial Doctor Wu felt that his neck was sore, and his palms became wet. The sound of the rosary spinning sounded particularly harsh at this time, tapping at his nerves.
After a long while, after a long sigh, the deep voice of the Empress Dowager slowly sounded:
"Remember...... Five years ago, your grandfather was still thinking about it, alas, in the future, if there is a disease or a pain, then I don't know who to look for.
Oh, fortunately, you were admitted to the hospital, and the mourning family was very relieved, and they were also happy that Mr. Wu had a grandson like you.
But you're just too cautious, and you always don't want to come out easily, which is not good.
Let's just talk about Prince Chun, if you take out the medicine earlier, won't he suffer a little less?
You have to wait until the emperor is angry and sees that his life is in danger, so he honestly takes out the medicine.
You know, you're guilty of deception. ”
Imperial Doctor Wu didn't have time to make any explanation, and immediately fell to his knees as soon as he heard the words "the crime of bullying the king":
"Wechen don't dare! It's really the medicine I got after the emperor gave the order, and I didn't make that medicine. ”
"Oh? Not you? Who else could there be? The Empress Dowager's tone was marked with curiosity and distrust.
"This ......" Imperial Doctor Wu was stunned for a moment, he didn't want the Empress Dowager to know that Hu Guards had a deal with the lady in the cold palace, but he didn't want to really commit the crime of bullying the king. In addition, people who are usually not used to lying are shocked, scared and don't know how to deal with it at the moment.
The Empress Dowager looked at the Wu Imperial Doctor who was prostrate on the ground with great interest, and suddenly smiled: "Okay, okay, get up, get up." As long as you make things clear, the mourning family will keep you fine. In addition, the mourning family also rewards the people who donate medicine! ”
Imperial Physician Wu stood up hesitantly and said respectfully, "Empress Dowager Xie's grace, this medicine ...... This medicine ...... Actually, it was given to me by Guard Hu. ”
"Hu Guard?"
"It's a guard guarding the cold palace." Grandma Wu whispered on the side.
The Empress Dowager nodded suddenly, and then said strangely: "What's the matter, this guard also knows how to heal?" ”
"This, Weichen doesn't know. It's just that after he heard about Prince Chun, he gave me that miraculous medicine. Of course, after Wechen tried it himself, he handed it over to the envoy of the Tai Hospital. After the envoy also tried it, it was given to Prince Chun. ”
Imperial Doctor Wu said cautiously, and did not say anything about Hu Si taking medicine from the "Jade Nobleman".
The Empress Dowager stared at Imperial Doctor Wu with a smile, and the Eight Treasures auspicious beads in her hand turned even more slowly.
Suddenly, she stopped turning her hand and said, "Qing'er, order someone to pass that Hu guard." ”
