Chapter 5: Injury worsens (I)

The people are the most practical. Whoever can bring them a peaceful and prosperous life will support them. It is not their business to be the emperor. Whether the emperor is orthodox is not their business. The effect of the public trial is surprisingly good. After only one afternoon of the first day, the whole city of Beijing caused a sensation. On the contrary, no one cares about the subsequent injury of such a major incident such as the assassination and serious injury. The Taixue even stopped all the disputes about Neo-Confucianism. As soon as everyone said that it was the public trial of Caishikou. It can be seen how much impact this incident had on the entire city of Beijing.

After hearing the news that Xu Yingyuan asked, Zhu Yinglong was stunned for a long time. He could not have thought that the rumor problem he was worried about was solved by Shi Kefa. Although it was impossible to do it once and for all, from now on, there will be rumors that are unfavorable to him. I am afraid that there will be few people who believe it. How can such a result not surprise him?

"Xu Yingyuan, if you go to the Imperial Hospital to report that Lu Huanzhang came, you will say that my wound has become pimpled." Zhu Yinglong thought for a while and decided that he would not issue a decree now, and he should pretend that he didn't know anything.

"Ah, Your Majesty?" Xu Yingyuan's face suddenly turned like a bitter gourd.

"Remember, I can only tell Lu Huanzhang quietly, go there." Zhu Yinglong continued without even raising his eyelids.

"I'm going now." Xu Yingyuan had no choice but to respond and go out.

"Will the emperor do this make all the sisters even more worried? Since the emperor was seriously injured, the sisters have been unable to eat or sleep. I feel so distressed in my eyes." Yanhong's eyes turned red, and tears were already rolling in her eyes.

"I also know this, doesn't my heart hurt?"

"Actually, the emperor can tell the truth to my sisters so that they won't worry about it." Yanhong said whatever she thought of.

"No, if you want others to believe it, you must first let your own people believe it. Once the truth of the matter is told Xiong Hu and the others, I am afraid that all my efforts will be put into trouble and will become a laughing stock in others' mouths." Zhu Yinglong said coldly with his eyes. When being an emperor, he should be a cold-blooded person.

Yanhong lowered her head and said nothing, but Zhu Yinglong had already seen a few crystal tears drops. He hardened his heart. As if he had seen nothing, he closed his eyes and lay down, continuing to pretend to be seriously injured and unconscious.

Yongshou Palace, which was originally the residence of Chenfei Shen Qianqian, has now become the temporary residence of several imperial concubines in the east and west palaces. Shou'an Palace is closest to Yangxin Palace. Whenever the emperor has any news, he can get the news immediately and arrive in time.

Not counting Concubine Yu Yanhong, there are now seven concubines gathered in Yongshou Palace, including Concubine Xiong Hu, Concubine Ning Zhou Yingning, Concubine Shuying, Concubine Xian Tian Shulan, Concubine Gong Ye Lianyi, Concubine Kang Taisong Princess, Concubine Chen Shen Qianqian, and Seven of them were all worried and depressed.

"I want to leave the palace. I want to kill the assassin who assassinated the emperor!" Ye Lianyi suddenly burst out, breaking the dull calmness. She stood up and bit her teeth with hatred, and her face was also heartbroken. She was full of murderous intent in her eyes and rushed out.

"Stop!" Xiong Hu shouted loudly, snatching Ye Lianyi's impulsive steps.

"Sister Xiong, why don't you let me go?" Ye Lianyi always heard Xiong Hu's words the most and asked with hatred.

"Not only where the assassin is, you don't know. Just because you are the emperor of the imperial concubine now, are you doing this kind of thing to catch the assassin?" Xiong Hu asked coldly. The loud shout just now moved the fetal aura. She endured the abdominal pain, and a layer of fragrant sweat appeared on her tender white pink forehead.

After hearing Xiong Hu's scolding, Ye Lianyi said nothing and had to go back to her seat to sit down.

"Report to all the ladies, I just saw Xu Yingyuan and Eunuch Xu hurried out of the Hall of Harmony, and two guards were following me. I don't know where they were. I'm here to report to all the ladies!" Xiaolin, the personal palace maid next to Concubine Ning Zhou Yingning, came to report quickly.

The seven women were shocked and Xu Yingyuan was serving the emperor. In addition to sending to read the imperial edict, there were few times when they left. When Xu Yingyuan left the emperor, something important happened, and at this time, he was even more sensitive.

"Sister Yanhong is serving the emperor, why don't I go and have a look?" Concubine Ning Zhou Yingning stood up and said.

"Okay, you can go and visit it." Xiong Hu agreed, and the remaining five people agreed.

Zhou Yingning hurriedly walked out with her personal palace maid and hurried to Yangxin Palace.

The news she received was enough to knock her to the ground on the spot. Yanhong told her in person that the emperor's wound was infected, pus flowed out, and had a high fever. Xu Yingyuan had already invited the imperial physician Lu Huanzhang to come for treatment. In less than a cup of tea in the Yangxin Palace, Xu Yingyuan rushed back with the imperial physician Lu Huanzhang.

After Lu Huanzhang's diagnosis, because the weather was too hot, the wound was accidentally infected, and pus flowed out, accompanied by a high fever. If the high fever could be receded in time, it would be fine. After the diagnosis, the imperial physician Lu Huanzhang left in a hurry. He had to prescribe the prescription and get the medicine immediately, which would not be delayed.

When Xiaolin helped Zhou Yingning back to Yongshou Palace and told the news about Xiong Hu and other six girls, the sorrow in Yongshou Palace became even stronger.

what to do?

All the girls turned their eyes to their backbone, and the imperial concubine Xiong Hun's face, but when Xiong Hun heard the news, she was stimulating, and her pretty face was gray and she forced herself to endure it, but she couldn't speak.

"Sisters, we should believe one thing, that is, the emperor will be safe and sound." Zhou Yingning was the queen candidate appointed by Zhu Yinglong. If she didn't stand up at this time, who would stand up? Otherwise, even if the emperor enthroned her as the queen in the future, she would not have the prestige to lead the harem, so she forced herself to calm down and stand up and said.

"First, the news that the emperor's serious injury has worsened must not be leaked, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. Second, we are all the emperor's concubines. First of all, we must unite, we are not panic, and the people outside are not panic. Third, we must make the worst plans." Zhou Yingning said the three things he had just come up with.

"What is the worst plan?" Chen Fei Shen Qianqian asked. Among the concubines, her relationship with Zhu Yinglong was the weakest. She had tears in her heart because she had only been favored by Zhu Yinglong for only one time.

"If the emperor is really seriously injured and unable to cure, we must not be mentally prepared." Zhou Yingning didn't think about it, but just said this first.

"Sister, the emperor will not be in trouble, and he has no worst plan!" Xiong Hu's abdomen was relieved a little, and he said certainly that Xiong Hu knew what Zhou Yingning was thinking now, but he must not let her continue to talk, because once the belief collapsed, it would be irreversible.

"Sister Xiong said it well, and I also believe that the emperor will recover safely." Ye Lianyi followed the first one to agree.

Following Concubine Shu, Concubine Xian, Concubine Kang, and Concubine Chen all expressed their confidence that the emperor would recover. Crystal tears filled their eyes, and a smile finally appeared on their sad faces.

Zhou Yingning looked at Xiong Hu gratefully. If Xiong Hu hadn't stopped her from talking nonsense today in time, the consequences would have been very serious.
