When the Queen Mother learned that her cousin passed away suddenly, she couldn't help but feel sad. Among her peers, this was her last blood relative...
After all, after being immersed in the harem for many years, the Queen Mother quickly suppressed her emotions and turned from sadness to anger. She sent people to guard the Yue family and not allow them to come in or out. She also sent the imperial doctor to the Longevity Palace for questioning.
Seeing the empress dowager's gloomy face, all the doctors did not dare to speak.
"I ask you a question, how dare you refuse to answer it!"
The Queen Mother slammed the table angrily, and all the imperial doctors hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty. The imperial doctor who had the wisdom to protect himself replied:
"Reporting to the Queen Mother, Mr. Yue has already passed away when I arrived. I dare not touch Mr. Yue's body, so I don't know what the emergency is."
When other imperial doctors heard this, they all agreed and kowtowed to apologize.
The Queen Mother's sharp eyes glanced at Doctor Chen, who had a tangled look on his face:
"Doctor Chen, do you know?"
Imperial Physician Chen hesitated to speak and looked at the Queen Mother, then at the other imperial physicians kneeling beside him, and then whispered:
"Wei Chen doesn't know..."
The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes, lost her temper, and sent all the frightened doctors away.
On his way back to the palace, Imperial Physician Chen was stopped by someone. After two sticks of incense, he returned to the Longevity Palace and knelt down in front of the Queen Mother.
"I see that Dr. Chen seems to have something unspeakable and cannot tell it in front of others, so I have invited you back."
Seeing that Doctor Chen was still unwilling to speak, the Queen Mother said coldly:
"Chen Mah, I see that Doctor Chen doesn't want to talk here, so let Zheng Cheng come and take Doctor Chen to have tea."
Upon hearing this, Imperial Physician Chen hurriedly said: "The Queen Mother, please calm down. It's not because Wei Chen deliberately concealed the truth. In fact, the matter is very important. If Wei Chen was alone, he would have no scruples. But Wei Chen still has his wife, children and children at home, so he really dare not say... …”
"Speak out, and I will protect your wife, children, and children. If you don't tell..."
Although the Queen Mother did not finish her words, she was full of threats. Doctor Chen said in fear:
"Wei Chen did not dare to hide this from the Queen Mother. When Wei Chen arrived, Mr. Yue had just died... his body was still warm. Wei Chen checked Mr. Yue's pulse. It was not a hidden disease, but... it was..."
"explain."
"It was because he was extremely angry and so angry that he walked so hastily."
When the Queen Mother heard this, her temples were beating with anger, and she gritted her teeth and said:
"Okay, very good! The queen is the master of the harem, and the Duke's palace has become the master of the previous dynasty. It seems that I will have to respect her more in the future."
The next day.
When the queen woke up dizzy, it was already bright. She sat up, rubbed her forehead, and said in a hoarse voice:
"Why did you sleep so deeply last night? Wait for me to dress."
Shunyi helped the queen up with an anxious look on her face and urged the maid to quickly change her clothes and put on makeup.
"What's the rush? But people from the Duke's Mansion have entered the palace?"
Shunyi said anxiously: "Mother, something big happened last night. As soon as Uncle Guo came out from Yue's house, Mr. Yue suddenly died of an emergency. The Queen Mother was so sad that she was now bedridden. Your Majesty found out this morning and didn't even go to the hospital. Come on, I have just gone to the longevity palace to attend to my illness. The old prince, uncle, his wife, the prince and the second young master have arrived at the palace now. "
After hearing this, the queen in front of the bronze mirror looked surprised, and her temples were swollen and painful as her heart beat faster. After reacting, he hurriedly urged the palace maid to dress up simply and hurried to the Longevity Palace.
At that time, Qin Zongheng was seen kneeling at the door. The queen did not bother to ask and hurriedly led people to the inner room.
The Queen Mother was lying on the bed, her forehead covered with a veil, and her breathing was short.
