Chapter 527: Sick as a Mountain

Everyone thought that Emperor Jingfeng was exhausted after being frightened, and he fainted after a moment of exhaustion, not wanting him to be sick this time, and he was directly bedridden, and he was delirious and talked nonsense for several days, and he was terminally ill.

In the emperor's bedroom, everyone gathered in front of Emperor Jingfeng's dragon couch, anxiously waiting for the imperial doctor's diagnosis.

The imperial doctor's face was solemn, and after checking the pulse of Emperor Jingfeng, he sighed: "Your Majesty has just recovered from the wind, and his body is weak, so you have to be careful when you go out to see the wind. If this autumn hunt goes smoothly, it will be fine, but who knows that there will be such a thing as a tiger hurting people."

"Your Majesty has been diligent in government affairs over the years, often staying half-night, and has long lost his body and become ill from hard work. This time, I was severely frightened, and it happened to arouse the old disease and the toxins deposited in it at the same time, so I became very sick, and the person fell down at once."

Zhao Wang Li Rui frowned, sensing that something was wrong: "Toxin? Brother Huang is in good health, how can there be toxins? But someone poisoned the royal brother?"

"That's not ......" The Imperial Doctor looked as if he had any scruples, and he spoke in a slurred manner, refusing to speak directly.

Li Rui was worried in his heart, suppressed the impatience in his heart, and said, "Doctor, if you have anything, just say it, the imperial brother's body has become what it is now, what else needs to be hidden?"

The imperial physician subconsciously glanced at the unconscious Emperor Jingfeng, and whispered, "...... If the minister guesses correctly, the toxin in His Majesty's *** should be caused by taking the pill all year round......

Hearing this, everyone fell silent.

Emperor Jingfeng has been taking pills for many years, and the pills are refined by warlocks, saying that they can enhance their physique by prolonging their lives, but the materials are all highly toxic substances such as dansha, mercury, and sulfur, and people with a discerning eye can see that they are harmful to the body.

It's a pity that Emperor Jingfeng insisted on going his own way, and didn't listen to people's dissuasion at all, at the beginning someone wrote a book to advise him not to serve Dan, even if he didn't listen, he would explain in a good voice and say that he felt good.

In recent years, Emperor Jingfeng has a suspicious personality, his emotions have become more and more unstable, and he is about to lose his temper at every turn, and slowly no one dares to persuade him. However, everything has a cause and effect, and Emperor Jingfeng planted the cause himself, and he doesn't want to taste the bitter fruit now.

Looking at Emperor Jingfeng's pale face, Li Rui felt sad and helpless in his heart, so he had to turn to the imperial doctor again: "Can the imperial brother's illness be cured?"

The Imperial Physician looked embarrassed: "If Your Majesty has not taken the Dan, it will definitely be fine, but it is difficult to say at the moment...... The minister can only try his best to heal and recuperate, but I am afraid that he will not be able to eradicate it, and even if His Majesty's condition improves in the future, most of his health will not be as good as before."

Emperor Jingfeng's body was already very weak before, if it was not as good as before, wouldn't he have to linger on the sickbed often? Thinking of this, everyone's mood was a little heavy.

"Ahem...... Water ......"

At this time, Emperor Jingfeng, who had been in a coma for several days, woke up slowly, coughed lightly, and his voice was extremely hoarse.

"Brother Huang, are you awake? Water! Bring me water!"

Li Rui was overjoyed when he saw this, and hurriedly called for warm water to be fed to Emperor Jingfeng.

After Emperor Jingfeng drank some water to moisten his throat, he finally had some strength to speak, he looked around the people in the room, and said in a weak voice, "...... What about the prince?"

Gu Yunji responded: "Back to Your Majesty, because you have not ordered your release, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is currently under custody in the East Palace, and he cannot be released without an edict."

When Emperor Jingfeng heard this, his emotions suddenly became excited, and he struggled to get up and get out of bed: "Ahem, cough, cough! Call the prince...... I want to ask him what the tiger is doing to hurt people, and if he wants to hurt me...... Someone, call me the prince...... cough cough cough ......"

The more Emperor Jingfeng coughed, the more serious he became, and he was about to gasp violently when he said two words, where was the appearance of being able to get out of bed and act.

Everyone was shocked when they saw this, lest he see Li Jinze's mood fluctuate even more, and hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty, the dragon body is important! You are still sick, and when you are well, you will summon the prince to ask questions."

"Nonsense! I'm strong, I'm so good!"

After a serious illness, Emperor Jingfeng woke up as if he was a different person, refusing to admit that he was sick, and angrily slammed the quilt pillow on the bed: "I am not yet forty years old, just in the prime of life, where did I come from."

Sickness! You rebels and thieves dare to deceive the king!"

Although Emperor Jingfeng woke up, he was obviously not very conscious, and everyone didn't dare to touch his moldy head, and knelt on the ground in fear: "Your Majesty—"

After venting for a while, Emperor Jingfeng ran out of strength and leaned on the bed weakly. After a while, his mood gradually stabilized, his eyes swept over the ministers who were kneeling all over the ground, and stared directly at Ning Fuhai: "...... Ning Fuhai, bring me my elixir."

"Your Majesty!"

Ning Fuhai's face was full of tears, and he knelt down with a thud: "The slave dared to say bluntly, that pill is not a good thing, you can't take the pill anymore!"

Emperor Jingfeng's face sank, and he scolded, "Nonsense! Lan Warlock traveled all over the world and returned from the master, the pill he refined has the effect of prolonging life, I am now weak inside, and I need the pill to replenish the essence, so don't you bring it to me quickly!"

Now, Ning Fuhai has nothing to shy away from, his eyes are red, and he can't hold back tears: "Your Majesty...... Doctor Fang Cai has said that your illness is caused by the pill, and the warlock Lan Wenyong is simply a female evildoer who deceives the world and steals his name, and he has harmed you! You should recuperate well now, and you must not take the pill again."

"Ning Fuhai, you are presumptuous!"

Emperor Jingfeng saw that he was about to launch a frenzy again, and his eyes were full of violence: "You dog slave, you dare to resist the order!" If you don't bring me the elixir, I'll kill you!"

Ning Fuhai has followed Emperor Jingfeng for decades, has been loyal, has long put life and death aside, heard the words Bangbang kowtowed on the ground for a while, and said resolutely: "For the sake of Your Majesty's dragon body, it is difficult for the slave to obey his fate, if Your Majesty wants to behead, just cut it!"

"You ......"

Emperor Jingfeng's face turned red, and he couldn't really kill him, so he simply turned to Cheng Yan on the side: "Cheng Yan, you are my close minister, I believe in you, you go and bring me the pill!"

Facing the gazes that everyone threw at him, Cheng Yan suddenly said calmly, "Yes, the minister obeys the order."

After a short time, Cheng Yan brought the pill over and presented it to Emperor Jingfeng: "Your Majesty, the pill has been brought."

Finally got what he wanted, Emperor Jingfeng grabbed the pill, didn't look at it, and swallowed it in a hurry.

However, Ning Fuhai often served Emperor Jingfeng to take the pill, and found that the color of this pill was wrong, not like the pill refined by a warlock, but like a pill made by a imperial doctor.

Ning Fuhai was puzzled in his heart, and when he saw Cheng Yan quietly glance at him avoiding Emperor Jingfeng, he instantly realized and hurriedly cast a grateful look.

After Emperor Jingfeng took the medicine, he finally stopped making a fuss and lay quietly for a while.

After a while, he suddenly sat up, his eyes clear, and instructed, "I am now sick and need to recuperate in peace, and the government affairs of the DPRK and China will be handled by the cabinet for the time being."

"As for the prince's side,......" he paused, his voice filled with anger, "From the current evidence, it seems that the tiger has nothing to do with the prince's injury, and the prince and all the officials of the East Palace are ordered to be removed from their posts and all sent to prison pending trial."

When everyone heard this, the princelings knelt down and begged for mercy, "Your Majesty! Your ministers are not guilty!"

Emperor Jingfeng was unmoved, he looked around the house, his eyes fell on Gu Yunji, remembering that he hit the tiger in the eye to save himself, so he changed his words again: "Gu Yunji, the head of the household department, has made meritorious contributions to saving the driver, and is not within the scope of dismissal and imprisonment, and the rest of the people cannot be pardoned, so take it down."

"Your Majesty!"

"The ministers are not guilty! I beg Your Majesty to see it!"

"Your Majesty thinks twice!"

In the face of everyone's begging for mercy and persuasion, Emperor Jingfeng didn't look at it, turned around and lay down on the bed: "I'm tired, if there is anything to talk about later, let's retreat first."
