Chapter 636: The Whole Country Seeks Doctors
Finally, there was good news, as soon as Empress Xiao returned to the palace, she soon knew that the crown prince Lin Yixuan was fine.
The eagerness and irritability finally subsided a lot, she hurriedly went to the imperial study, and happened to see Gu Yizhen, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, coming out, and it seemed that she had just discussed state affairs with Emperor Nanwei, Empress Xiao nodded to Gu Yizhen, and then went in.
"I've seen Your Majesty." Empress Xiao saluted.
Finally dealt with the problem, although the Southern Wei Emperor was still gloomy, he finally unraveled his mind.
Empress Xiao walked to the side of Emperor Southern Wei and said softly: "The concubine just went to see Xiao Chen, and when she came back, she heard that His Majesty had relieved Yixuan's confinement, is the case already decided, and Yixuan is not guilty?" ”
Although the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, it is about her two sons, and Queen Xiao can't help but ask a few more questions.
These words immediately asked the bottom of Emperor Nanwei's heart, if the case was really completely solved, would he be so pale? But there are many things that he can't say, especially for Empress Xiao. Loving mother and child, even if the identity of the queen is the same, some words can only be known, but they can never be said.
"Well, the case is closed, it was the imperial doctor Zhang Yao who did it, and I have already asked people to deal with the specific details." Suppressing the boredom in his heart, Emperor Nanwei smiled reluctantly, "The queen has been worried recently, this will be fine, you can also be relieved, don't think so much." ”
The case of the crown prince Lin Yixuan here is closed, and Empress Xiao is indeed relieved, but thinking of the dysentery of her second son Lin Xiaochen, she became anxious again: "Your Majesty, the concubine went to see Xiao Chen just now, and she was really sick. Those imperial doctors are just wine bags and rice bags, and they can't cure even a small diarrhea......"
Hearing that Empress Xiao complained a lot, and said that she would severely punish the imperial doctor, Emperor Nanwei relieved his mood a little and became irritable again: "Enough, why are there so many things?" The second child is also getting less and less grown, and a good diarrhea will be like this, who hasn't eaten the wrong thing, why is he so weak that he can't help but die? What a bastard! ”
Empress Xiao was stunned, and she didn't understand why Emperor Southern Wei not only didn't feel sorry for her second son, but also scolded her.
Could it be that the eldest son is the crown prince, which is worthy of pity and distress, and the second son is the prince and it doesn't matter, so he can be so indifferent?
I couldn't tell Empress Xiao the reasons for each at all, and Emperor Southern Wei suppressed his voice and said, "Okay, what are you crying about, is it useful?" If it weren't for the second child, he would ......" Speaking of this, he finally stopped his mouth, and didn't say that it was because the second child killed Zhang Yaoshun, the holy hand of the imperial doctor, and now no one treats him, he deserves it.
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, Emperor Nanwei flicked his sleeves fiercely and vented all his suppressed anger: "Enough, I know in my heart, I will send the imperial doctor, the queen is also tired, go back to the palace." ”
Seeing that Emperor Southern Wei had a nameless fire, Empress Xiao didn't dare to say anything more and hurriedly left.
Sitting in front of the imperial case, Emperor Southern Wei recalled the case that had been closed by the Criminal Department Shangshu before, and felt a deep headache.
Zhao Ningyi, the son of the world, seems to have to die in vain, who made him unlucky to follow the second child? Lin Xiaochen, a bastard, actually did this kind of thing again and again under his nose, and he had endured it to the limit.
It's not that he can't tolerate the competition between his two sons, but the means of doing so are unbearable for Emperor Southern Wei.
When he learned the true side of the case, Emperor Southern Wei was the first to suspect Lin Xiaochen, because the evidence in this case was so obvious that anyone could see that the murderer was the crown prince Lin Yixuan.
Whether it was bringing Princess Chu to live in the Prince's Mansion, or Zhao Ningyi having a dispute with Princess Chu, and then the Imperial Physician Zhang Yao secretly handing it out, and a bag of poisonous weeds mixed with lantern embers found near the Feixue Pavilion where Princess Chu lived afterwards, everything was too obvious. It was the crown prince Lin Yixuan who was in a fit of anger in order to exonerate Princess Chu and committed the crime of murder.
If it was just all this, Emperor Southern Wei might still consider whether to demote the crown prince and replace Lin Xiaochen with Lin Xiaochen. After all, as the next successor of the country, it is not enough to have the ability to be benevolent, but also to be ruthless, meticulous, and able to balance power and make good use of people......
If Lin Yixuan was really pulled down by Lin Xiaochen's design, it was because he was not capable enough and couldn't complain about others.
However, Lin Xiaochen's last move really made Emperor Southern Wei unbearable.
After all, he is the king of a country, and it is important to make every effort to ensure the peace and happiness of the country. But Lin Xiaochen, in order to be able to put his eldest brother to death, ruthlessly implicated so many people. Not to mention the royal secret guards, dozens of carefully trained people disappeared in the blink of an eye, and they also made people pretend to be soldiers and horses......
Could it be that he, the father, was blind and couldn't even see through this?
Even innocent people were implicated, and they were caught off guard by the pond fish, killing more than 10 people, causing a lot of panic...... If he really convicted the crown prince Lin Yixuan this time, and let Lin Xiaochen take the throne, when this ruthless and unscrupulous second son became the emperor of the Southern Wei Dynasty, how arrogant and arrogant would he be to ruin the Southern Wei Dynasty?
Emperor Nanwei was cold, and after thinking about it for a few days, he finally closed the case like this.
The seemingly guilty prince Lin Yixuan was just wronged, and the real mastermind was the imperial physician Zhang Yaoshun. And Lin Xiaochen, the second prince who should have been guilty, didn't ask anymore, and the truth was in the heart of Emperor Southern Wei. But he promised that it would only be this time, and if there was a next time, he would never tolerate it.
In this case, only someone needs to take the blame.
This is the last chance he gave his two sons as an emperor and a father.
The mood was uneasy, the Southern Wei Emperor wrote a few words as usual to calm down, gradually smoothed out, calmed down, the pen walked the dragon, the clouds flowed, just when he wrote to the pleasure, the chief eunuch came to report: "Your Majesty, the news came from the second prince's mansion, saying that the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctors was useless, and now the second prince is unconscious, dehydrated all over, I'm afraid I can't find a way, it's really ......."
"Is it that serious?" Emperor Southern Wei finally put down his pen, and his face became ugly.
Chief eunuch: "Yes, the several imperial doctors sent said that the second prince's disease looks like dysentery, but it is a little different." They prepared more than ten recipes, but it was useless for the second prince to eat them, and now they ......"
"Let's go, I'll see for myself."
In the final analysis, after all, it is his own son, since Emperor Southern Wei has given him the last chance, then it should be as if the previous thing did not happen. Wuyang Palace, he will naturally make up for it, Lin Yixuan will also mention one or two, as for Lin Xiaochen, maybe this time it is retribution, but he doesn't want to watch his son die like this.
When the Holy Driver arrived, the entire Second Prince's Mansion became nervous.
The four imperial physicians knelt in front of them and trembled, not daring to stand up and speak at all. Emperor Southern Wei listened to everyone's description of the condition, and also felt more and more serious, normally speaking, although dysentery is for the common people, no money may be fatal, especially if a child suffers, it is almost death.
But his son is a prince, all kinds of precious medicinal materials can be used at will, and Lin Xiaochen's health has always been good, how could he be made like this by a little problem?
"So Your Majesty, after discussing with the lower officials and others, they have always thought,"
Song Changning, the imperial physician kneeling on the far left, said cautiously: "The second prince is actually not dysentery, but poisoning, but this poison is rare, even if the lower officials and others read all the books in the imperial hospital, they can't find out what the symptoms are, and the lower officials are dead." ”
His brows furrowed deeply into the word 'Sichuan', and Emperor Southern Wei did not get angry again, and said in a deep voice: "If the second prince is poisoned, how long can it be delayed?" ”
After thinking about it for a long time, Imperial Physician Song sighed: "In the Imperial Hospital, if Imperial Physician Zhang has the highest medical skills, if he is still here, maybe ...... But now, even if the ministers do their best, His Majesty is willing to pour all the elixirs in the inner treasury, and at most they can maintain the life of the second prince for ten days. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the four imperial doctors leaned over: "The ministers are incompetent, and I beg Your Majesty to surrender." ”
Debunking crimes, is it useful to reduce sins?
If you can exchange one life for another, let alone a few imperial doctors, even if you have dozens of lives, the Southern Wei Emperor will be willing to do it. The life of the prince is not comparable to ordinary people, even if the payment is great, the Southern Wei Emperor is willing.
Can ...... now
Poisoning, 10 days...... Do you just watch the second child die? The eldest matter has just been resolved, and now it's the second child's turn, why have there been so many things recently?
"Your Majesty, actually...... The subordinates and subordinates have a word, no, I don't know what to say...... Shouldn't you say? Suddenly, a physician raised his head, trembling, but finally spoke.
"Speak!"
"Xia Guan remembered that the princess of Chu in Western Chu had lived in the prince's mansion for a while, although now she ...... But ......" didn't finish his speech, but his meaning was already expressed.
If Lin Xiaochen's illness can be treated by Princess Chu, there may be hope.
"Princess Chu?" Emperor Southern Wei chewed on this title, as if a lightning bolt crossed his head, and suddenly his mouth suddenly opened.
It is no secret that Luo Qingluan, the princess of Chu in Western Chu, has excellent medical skills, not to mention such a minor illness, even the new emperor of Western Chu was seriously injured in the assassination before, and his life was at stake, and he was cured by her. As long as she is willing to make a move, the problem of her second son Lin Xiaochen will definitely be solved.
But as soon as he thought of this, Emperor Southern Wei reacted again.
Because of the poisoning case before, he ordered to send someone to the prince's mansion to arrest Luo Qingluan, but in the end she escaped. Now I want to find her to save her life, let alone whether she can find it or not, even if she finds it, will she agree?
Helpless, no matter how bad it is, you have to give it a try, maybe there is a glimmer of hope.
Soon, a notice was posted at the gate of the city, offering a reward to find Luo Qingluan, the princess of Western Chuchu, and at the same time, the whole country sought a hermit master who could treat strange diseases......
At the same time, Empress Xiao also sent someone to the Prince's Mansion, hoping that Prince Lin Yixuan could help, after all, his friendship with Princess Chu was already known to everyone, and if His Royal Highness the Prince was willing to help, perhaps it would be more likely to find Princess Chu.
In the courtyard of an ordinary house.
Liang Yuyan sat next to Luo Qingluan and told what happened outside: "Hmph, these two princes deserve to be unlucky, let him suffer a little, it's just to give the princess your anger." But Princess, now that the case is closed, we don't have to hide in Tibet anymore, but if you go back to the Prince's Mansion, I'm afraid they will beg you to treat that bastard again. ”
"Princess, what are you going to do?"
