Chapter 32 Preparing for the Funeral

Murong Jie knew that if this dragged on, King Liang would be in danger, so he decided to chop the mess with a sharp knife.

So, he asked Zian, "How long will it take to get King Liang out of danger?"

Zian hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's too early to say for sure, it depends on whether His Royal Highness King Liang has aspiration pneumonia."

"Three days?" Murong Jie didn't intend to make her laugh, but directly forced her to give time.

Zian thought quickly, if someone helps her, King Liang should be out of danger within three days, but will the imperial doctor help her? I'm afraid that even the court judge won't be on her side now.

"Speak!" Murong Jie suddenly shouted sharply, "Are you dumb?"

Zi An had no choice but to say: "Yes, three days!"

Murong Jie nodded, looked at the Empress Dowager and said, "Queen Mother, since she promised to keep Ah Xin out of danger in three days, I will give her three days, what do you think?"

Although he was asking, his tone was undeniably affirmative.

The Empress Dowager didn't make a sound, she just glanced at the Concubine Gui indifferently.

The noble concubine knew what the empress dowager meant, she was about to speak, but Murong Jie turned around and said: "Since the empress mother acquiesces, then follow the king's wishes. For these three days, all the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital will be on duty in turn. Together with Xia Zian to guard His Royal Highness King Liang, this king will also temporarily stay in the Hall of Eternal Life. Any news, no matter when it is, must be reported to this king. Except for those who are appointed to serve, all idlers in the palace, etc. You are not allowed to run to the Palace of Longevity, and those who disobey the order will be executed!"

This was the first time Zi'an saw Murong Jie act resolutely, and the empress dowager didn't agree at all, but he deliberately misinterpreted the empress dowager's meaning. Such a strong and domineering temperament really... made Zi'an feel refreshed.

The sentence "Behead those who disobey the order" made everyone present realize that the regent is for real, and he is exercising the power given to him by the emperor, and he doesn't even pay attention to the empress dowager.

The empress dowager's face was uncertain, and finally, she squeezed out a stiff smile, "Okay, since the regent ordered it like this, then I will obey you and give her three days. If Ah Xin does not improve in three days, I will kill you." amnesty."

After finishing speaking, his cold eyes fell on Zian's face, and he continued: "If you make meritorious deeds and heal King Liang, the Ai family will personally decree that you will be made a concubine by the Prince Regent."

These words were meant for Zi'an, and even more so for Murong Jie, so that he would have no regrets.

Zi'an had no choice but to kneel down to thank the empress dowager, "I thank the empress dowager for her kindness."

The prince stared at Zi'an sternly, and smiled complacently. No matter what the result was, it would be beneficial to him.

In fact, now he is hoping that Xia Zian can really cure this trash. Although he can't kill Xia Zian, he will humiliate Murong Jie and marry a wife that everyone despises as his concubine. fell.

Besides, there was no way to get the support of the concubine's natal family by marrying the concubine, so he missed a great opportunity first.

The empress had no expression on her face, and it was not her turn to speak now.

Concubine Gui looked at Zi'an in disgust, she naturally couldn't expect King Liang to die, because after King Liang died, Murong Jie made a mistake in decision-making, and it was he who strongly recommended Xia Zian to treat King Liang.

But if King Liang didn't die, Xia Zi'an would be her daughter-in-law. Thinking of this, she hated it very much.

The empress dowager sent several imperial doctors and court judges into the palace, and the empress dowager also went in together.

As for Murong Jie, the empress dowager asked him to guard here, implying that he was not allowed to listen.

The empress dowager sat in the middle, her face livid, "Tell me, what is the current situation of King Liang? Is there anything you can do in the hospital?"

The court judge hesitated for a moment, weighing the pros and cons in his mind, he had no other choice, Liang Wang’s condition was recurrent, and he had repeated attacks, the scene he saw just now, he had never heard of hypoxia, so he couldn’t put his hopes on it For a woman, especially when she lied about being the successor of Wen Yi, she was talking nonsense.

Although he was not very clear about King Liang's situation, judging from his complexion and breathing pulse, it was no longer possible. He didn't believe that Xia Zi'an could recover.

"Speak up!" The empress dowager was furious when she saw that everyone was silent, "Let's be honest about the situation, even if there is a big treason, the Ai family will forgive you. The Ai family just wants to know his current situation. "

The court judge knelt down, raised his head and said bluntly: "If you go back to the empress dowager, since this is the case, I will tell you bluntly that His Royal Highness Liang Wang's condition is very serious, especially now that he can't breathe, his pulse is heavy and weak, sometimes it doesn't. His hands and feet are very cold, and his face is sometimes pale and sometimes cyanotic, and he is already on the verge of dying."

After hearing what the imperial doctor said, the queen felt dizzy, her eyes went dark, and she almost fainted.

She covered her face with her hands and wept bitterly.

The empress dowager's expression was also very mournful, her lips trembled a few times, she stared at the judge, "Is there really nothing you can do?"

The court judged embarrassingly: "Empress Dowager, His Royal Highness Liang Wang's condition is too serious, and the ministers are helpless."

"How long do you think it will be?" asked the empress dowager.

The court judged: "I guess, I may not be able to survive tomorrow morning."

The empress dowager sighed a long time, stood up, and was about to fall, the imperial concubine hurriedly supported her, "Sister, don't be too sad, Xin'er is a blessed person, and she will be blessed by God."

Two tears slipped quietly from the Empress Dowager's eyes, her expression was ashen, and she said after a long time: "Please go ahead and prepare for the things behind you."

The queen jumped up, "No, queen mother, didn't Xia Zian say that there is a solution? She also said that Ah Xin will recover in three days, and this behind-the-scenes matter cannot be prepared first, if Xia Zian..."

The Empress Dowager interrupted her sternly, "I see that you are in a hurry and confused. People who can't be cured in a dignified hospital, you say a boudoir woman can be cured? You can just talk about it here, otherwise it will spread. , Laugh off other people's big teeth, you are still the current queen, and you actually believe in such nonsense, ulterior motives, where is your cleverness? You are still the prince's biological mother, and it will spread your reputation to the prince's reputation If there is a loss, then Xia Zian will send it back to Aijia, and Ah Jie is also true, how can you believe her words?"

When she said the last sentence, she glanced lightly at the Grand Concubine. The Grand Concubine lowered her head, not daring to speak, but her expression was not very good-looking.

The queen wept, and said humbly: "Mother, no matter what other people say, the concubine would rather hold on to this hope that Xia Zi'an said he could save the emperor. Moreover, the prince may have promised to let Xia Zi'an be here." Stay here for three days, why not give them three days? Even if there is a little bit of hope, the concubines are not willing to give up."

After saying that, he cried a few more times, knelt down and prostrated himself on the ground and said, "Queen, Ah Xin is also your most beloved grandson, do you really have the heart to send a white-haired man to a black-haired man?"

The empress dowager's heart ached when she heard it. Indeed, Murong Xin was her most beloved grandson. This child had been in a difficult situation since he was a child. He had just regretted his marriage and suffered from this disease. If he really left like this, wouldn't he die of grief?
