"A bunch of useless things, what use do I have in raising you?" Zhu Yuanzhang was furious.
The imperial doctor kowtowed tremblingly, "Your Majesty, your Majesty's illness is being treated by Master Li Qingli. If I take over hastily, it will only worsen the condition of your Majesty."
"Yes, Your Majesty, your Majesty has a body of thousands of gold. If something goes wrong, I will die ten thousand times and it will be difficult to atone for my sin!"
"Your Majesty, non-officials are unwilling to be loyal. There is really nothing they can do!"
…
A group of people kept blaming the blame, and the central idea was very clear. We really can't cure this disease, so we can only let Li Qing come.
Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry, how could he not understand that these people were passing the blame, and sneered: "It can't be cured, right?
Okay, here comes someone, drag him down and chop him down. "
"Your Majesty, spare your life, spare your life!" A group of people's faces turned green. "The loyalty of my ministers to the Emperor can be seen from the sun and the moon..."
Halfway through his words, he was dragged out by the guards.
Zhu Biao looked unbearable and advised: "Father, isn't this going to add to the karma of the queen?"
"Karma?"
Zhu Yuanzhang raised his eyebrows, and then his eyes lit up, "Now that you have said it, we will think of it and summon all the famous monks near the capital into the palace to pray for your mother.
By the way, send a message to Jiangxi and ask the Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain to come.
Both Buddhist and Taoist families are coming! "
The ancients were superstitious, and Zhu Yuanzhang was no exception. Conventional methods would not work, so he could only place his hope in gods and Buddhas.
"Okay, I will make arrangements now." Zhu Biao nodded and hurriedly walked out of the palace, pulling the imperial doctors back from the hell gate.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the haggard Empress Ma with a ferocious expression on his face. Sometimes he sat in front of the couch and talked to her, and sometimes he waved his sleeves and became furious.
The palace maids and eunuchs were as silent as a cicada, not even daring to breathe.
At this time, Xiao Guizi hurried in with small steps, "The Emperor is so happy!"
"happiness?"
"Yes, Your Majesty," Xiao Guizi said, "Li Qianhu in Jinyi reported that Li Qing has woken up."
"Li Qing is awake?" Zhu Yuanzhang was overjoyed, "Quick, call him."
"Uh...yes, yes, yes." Xiao Guizi murmured, "Your Majesty, Li Qianhu said that Li Qing's condition is not very good..."
"Then carry him into the palace!"
His sister was in danger, so Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't care less about Li Qing, "Use our dragon chariot and go as fast as possible."
~
Li Qing was really convinced. As soon as he came back from the gate of hell, Zhu Yuanzhang asked him to enter the palace to treat Queen Ma. He was simply inhuman.
But it was hard to disobey the emperor's order. What could he do but take the dragon chariot into the palace.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Li Qing, whose expression was not much better than that of Empress Ma, with a hint of apology on his face, and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"
"not too good."
"..." Zhu Yuanzhang rubbed his hands and said coquettishly, "The queen has been sleeping since the morning and she hasn't woken up yet. Please hurry and take a look."
Li Qing was helped by Xiao Guizi to sit down in front of the bed. When he put his hand on Queen Ma's wrist, his face became even uglier.
"Why are you like those imperial doctors?" Zhu Yuanzhang sounded dissatisfied and his voice trembled slightly, "Didn't you say there is still more than a month?"
"Sickness is coming like a mountain!" Li Qing sighed, "Your Majesty's health is more serious than I expected, maybe..."
"You can do it." Zhu Yuanzhang interrupted, "If you need anything, just ask and we will accept it."
With a bitter look on his face, Li Qing asked Xiao Guizi to take the needle box and insert a needle into the Baihui point on Queen Ma's head.
Baihui point is the meeting point of the three yang meridians of the hands and feet and the Du meridian, also known as the intersection of all yangs.
But even so, Queen Ma still didn't wake up.
Li Qing's frown deepened. After careful consideration, he gave another sharp injection to the Yongquan point on the sole of her foot.
After a while, Queen Ma woke up quietly.
"Li Qing, why are you here?" Empress Ma smiled weakly, "As long as it's okay."
Zhu Yuanzhang quickly stepped forward and squeezed Li Qing away, "Sister, how do you feel?"
Queen Ma exhaled slowly and said weakly, "Chongba, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive."
"Don't talk nonsense, it's okay, it's okay..." Zhu Yuanzhang squeezed out a smile, his voice trembling slightly, "Let's ask Biao'er to invite all the eminent monks near the capital. If they pray for you, you will definitely turn the corner. You can Don't worry.
By the way, we also invited Zhang Tianshi from Longhu Mountain. It will definitely be fine, it will definitely... be fine. "
Li Qing lowered his eyes and turned his head slightly.
Zhu Yuanzhang cried, tears flowing down his wrinkles, and he looked older.
The eunuchs and maids all knelt down, buried their heads deeply, and sobbed softly.
"You're so old, you're still crying~" Queen Ma said with a smile.
"We're not crying." Zhu Yuanzhang tried to save his respect, but couldn't control his emotions at all, and finally burst into tears, "You can't die. What will we do if you die?"
"Okay, I won't die." Queen Ma said as if coaxing a child. She wanted to reach out her hand to wipe his tears, but she dropped her hand halfway, unable to do so.
At this time, Xiao Guizi came forward with the cup and cried, "Your Majesty, the medicine is ready."
Zhu Yuanzhang helped Queen Ma up, let her lean into his arms, and reached out to take the medicine, "Girl, take the medicine, don't be afraid of hardship."
"Um."
Although Queen Ma knew that drinking the medicine was useless, she still drank the whole bowl of medicine.
"Chongpachi, come and talk with me."
"Okay, sister, what do you want to hear from me?"
"Haha... anything will do."
…
Two-quarters of an hour later, Queen Ma fell into a deep sleep. Zhu Yuanzhang gently put her down, tucked her in, and stared at her for a long time before slowly getting up.
"Li Qing, come with us to the imperial study."
"I obey the decree."
Li Qing followed behind with Xiao Guizi on a walking stick.
When he arrived at the Imperial Study Room, Zhu Yuanzhang asked him to sit down, then dismissed everyone, and then asked:
"How much time does the queen have?"
"Three to five days." Li Qing said matter-of-factly.
"You said there is still one month." Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily, "Do you know what it is to deceive the emperor?"
Li Qing: "..."
"Why do not you speak?"
"..."
"say."
Li Qing sighed, "I have nothing to say."
"You..." Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that he punched the table. The tea cup shook an inch high, his chest heaved violently, and he stared at Li Qing with murderous intent.
Li Qing looked calm and fearless.
After a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang was defeated, and his tone was pleading, "Is there really no other way?
Even...even if it can be extended for a few more days! "
Li Qing frowned and thought for a while, "I will study it when I go back and see if I can find other ways."
"Okay." Zhu Yuanzhang promised, "If you extend it by one day, we will reward you with a thousand taels."
Li Qing has long been immune to big cakes, and he doesn't even bother to show off, "I will try my best."
Zhu Yuanzhang continued to draw cakes, "You have merit, and we will reuse you in the future."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Seeing that the painting cake had little effect, Zhu Yuanzhang played the emotional card again, "How is your health?
Where does it hurt?
What do you want to eat?
…”
Li Qing was tired of dealing with it, so he had to pretend to be moved and swear to the sky: "I will do my best!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was relieved and said with concern, "Take good care of yourself, and you can take our dragon chariot when you go in and out of the palace.
By the way, bring this with you. The sweet-scented osmanthus cake in the imperial dining room is much more delicious than outside. "
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Li Qing was very touched, not because he was touched by Lao Zhu's kindness to him. In fact, he had already figured out what kind of temper Lao Zhu had. He was touched by the feelings of the two emperors and emperors.
When I got home, it was late at night.
Lianxiang Hongxiu helped him into the house, and Wanling handed him the hot soup.
After Li Qing drank the medicine, his stomach finally responded. He went to the toilet several times and his mental state improved a lot.
"It's getting late, let's go back to sleep." Li Qing said, "There are guards patrolling outside, so there won't be any more danger."
Seeing that his expression improved and he finally smiled, the three girls agreed obediently.
Li Qing lay on the bed, picked up the medical book and continued to light the lamp and boil oil.
I turned over and over again, changed two candles, and still couldn't find a way to continue my life.
Sighing, Li Qing blew out the candle and looked at the roof, silent.
Gradually, a feeling of sleepiness began to rise, and just when he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly felt someone approaching.
Li Qing immediately became energetic, his body remained motionless, and he did not even dare to open his eyes.
There is moonlight tonight, and there are guards patrolling outside, but the other party has already walked in majestically, which shows his high level of martial arts.
At this moment, he is physically weak, so he can only cover up his unpreparedness by surprise, and kill him with one strike while he is relaxed.
If he misses, he will die.
Li Qing's body tensed up, his palms were sweaty, and he was also very annoyed. There was no end to it, right?
After a while, the man blew a breath, and even though he closed his eyes, he could still feel the room becoming brighter.
"Huh~"
Another breath, this is the sound of blowing out the fire.
It's now!
Li Qing suddenly stood up, and the Xiuchun knife beside the bed was unsheathed.
"Die to me!"
The sharp blade cut through the air and made a buzzing sound. This powerful and heavy blade made Li Qing confident of cutting the person in half even if he was wearing armor.
However, the person who came here only used one hand to keep the knife firmly in the air without even trembling, as if it was frozen directly.
"What a good boy, you can even chop the master, right?!"
