Chapter 82 The Sisters' Grief

Xiao Tuo didn't expect to go to this level, and when Prince An reminded him, his vigilance suddenly increased, "That's right, this person is very suspicious."

"This king suspects that he has attacked the concubine a long time ago, otherwise the concubine would not have trusted him so much. Also, Zi'an just gave a needle to Ah Jie, and he did not hesitate to push the concubine. It can be seen that there must be a reason for this. This king will Follow to the palace, find a chance to meet Zi'an, and ask her about her intentions."

Xiao Tuo couldn't help admiring Zi An when he thought about pushing the concubine just now, "To tell you the truth, even I dare not offend the concubine, she really has the guts of a bear."

"This king believes that she has no choice but to do it." Prince An believed Zi'an for no reason, because she was Yuan Cuiyu's daughter.

"I have to say, this Xia Zian impresses me." Xiao Tuo said.

Prince An said expressionlessly, "It's Zi'an who impresses you, not Xia Zi'an."

Xiao Tuo was startled, "Yes, Xia Zian."

"Zian!"

Xiao Tuo frowned, "Is there a difference?"

Prince An turned around and went in, "Think carefully about where the difference is."

Xiao Tuo looked at his back suspiciously, forgiving Wu Fu's heart does not have so many crooked intestines, he doesn't know the difference, isn't Xia Zian and the Zi'an he is talking about the same person?

Murong Jie was sent back to the palace, and the noble concubine sent someone into the palace to ask for an imperial doctor.

Although she is a noble concubine and lives in the palace, her status does not require the empress to invite an imperial doctor to leave the palace.

This means that the news of Murong Jie's serious injury has spread.

It is not an exaggeration to shock the government and the public.

Murong Jie was seriously injured, no matter how he was injured, but now he is in the position of supervising the country, he is injured and cannot handle political affairs, the so-called country cannot live without a king, domestic affairs can be handled by Zhongshu Sheng and Shangshu Sheng, but , military affairs, and foreign diplomatic relations must be personally approved by the regent.

Today, the Zhongshuling of the Zhongshu Province is the Queen's father Liang Taifu. He almost monopolizes the power. Even Prime Minister Xia, who is in charge of the province, has to follow his steps. To put it bluntly, he has to act according to his face.

Mr. Liang from the Zhongshu Province and Mr. Cui from the Shangshu Province have different political views. They have been fighting for more than ten years. Mr. Liang has always hated this opponent, but there is nothing he can do about it.

Because the Shangshu Province is in charge of the six ministries and is independent from all the departments. It is the purest administrative organization that reports directly to the emperor without going through Zhongshu Ling and Prime Minister Xia.

One thing I have to say is that this Lord Cui of Shangshu Province was also one of Yuan's suitors back then.

He is a literati, he doesn't like soft and hard things, he has no hobbies, he likes to paint and write poems, and he can't court Yuan Shi, so he married his wife, the wife is Xiao Xiao, the eldest daughter of Marquis Jing, and also Xiao Tuo's elder sister.

This Xiao Xiao is very different from Yuan Shi, he is a martial idiot, very rude, but very hearty, and he is also good friends with Murong Zhuangzhuang.

Now that the regent was seriously injured, these three forces slowly surfaced.

It is obvious that Liang Taifu naturally supports the prince, and Prime Minister Xia is subject to Liang Taifu, and will also be attached to Liang Taifu to become the prince's party.

Master Cui is a straightforward person, and he also participates in and agrees with Murong Jie's political direction, so there is no doubt that he will stand on the side of the regent.

Of course, Zi'an and the Concubine Gui didn't know about this situation, Zi'an only worried about one thing now, and that was Murong Jie's life and death.

After practicing medicine for many years, she knew the seriousness of Murong Jie's injury, and he was really facing life and death.

The fact that she was brought back to the palace was quickly reported back to the Prime Minister's Palace.

There was also news from the palace that Xia Zi'an was able to turn around quickly because he helped the King of Liang to treat him. This time, he was detained by the concubine because of the treatment for the King Regent, which made the King Regent's injury worse.

Prince An once entered the palace to look for Xia Lin's body, but in the palace opposite Xiwei Palace, no Xia Lin's body was found at all, only a pool of blood in the flowers.

The people in the Prime Minister's Mansion thought that Xia Lin was staying with Concubine Mei in the palace for a while, and the Prime Minister and Mrs. Linglong couldn't enter the palace, so they had to wait for Xia Lin to live in trouble, and Concubine Mei would order someone to send him out of the palace. .

Zi'an's situation is quite miserable, she was detained in the prison of the palace.

This prison is very small and can only accommodate seven or eight people. It is usually used to detain the servants of the mansion. It is dark and humid, and there are many mosquitoes, cockroaches and mice.

The imperial concubine abused her intentionally. For two days, she was only given water and no food at all. There were guards guarding the door, and no one was allowed to come in to see Xia Zian.

Two days passed, and Murong Jie's condition continued to deteriorate. After the powder was applied to the wound, he continued to be infected and had a fever. Later, he had difficulty breathing.

However, it was better than Zian's previous expectation, because she concluded that Murong Jie would not be able to survive a day if the Taoist priest continued to heal him.

She knew that it was because of Murong Jie's tenacious will and strong will to survive that Zi'an was in prison, and he couldn't survive for a quarter of an hour.

Murong Zhuangzhuang and Prince An proposed to see Xia Zian, but the Concubine Gui said that if anyone forcibly went to see Xia Zian, she would die with Xia Zian in his arms.

In addition to Prince An and Murong Zhuangzhuang who were anxious for Zi'an, there was another person who wanted to rescue Zi'an urgently, and this person was the Queen.

The empress can't show up. Although she can command the harem, she can't do anything to the imperial concubine.

So, she went to find the empress dowager.

The empress dowager ordered the imperial concubine to enter the palace, but the imperial concubine refused to enter the palace on the grounds that she was unwell.

Seeing that she was not coming, the Empress Dowager went to the Prince Regent's Mansion in person, and also visited Murong Jie by the way.

Seeing that Murong Jie was indeed dying, the Empress Dowager was shocked, and accused the Dowager Gui in front of Prince An, "It's so serious, why didn't you let Zi'an heal him? You have seen Zi'an's medical skills, Ah Xin was so serious before, she was cured."

The Concubine Gui didn't raise her eyebrows, and said calmly: "It's just a coincidence, I won't let Ah Jie be healed by that woman. I asked the people in the prime minister's house, and Xia Zi'an never learned it."

"Never learned? How trustworthy are the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion? That Prime Minister Xia and that Mrs. Linglong talked insanely, without a half-truth." The Empress Dowager snorted.

The Concubine Gui said coldly: "Really? The elder sister told me that this Xia Zi'an usually does not go out of the door, where did he learn the medical skills? Could it be that the elder sister believed that she was taught by Wen Yi's successor? It's ridiculous!"

The noble concubine is always respectful to the empress dowager, and her attitude is so cold like this is unprecedented. The empress dowager looked at her, and felt a little uncomfortable. She just felt that she had changed, but she continued to gently persuade: " But, no matter what, she knows medical skills, it is undeniable, the imperial doctor can't do anything, why do you still insist on your own opinion?"

The imperial concubine stood up abruptly, "Sister, Ah Jie was born to me. Although I called you queen mother, in the final analysis, no one loves him more than my biological mother and hopes that he can live. You should understand this feeling, otherwise Why don't you let Xia Zian heal your own son? He has been lying in bed for so long. If you believe in Xia Zian's medical skills, let her go to the palace to heal her. If you can do this, I can also let her Xia Zian came to treat Ah Jie."
