"What will happen to you when I die suddenly?"
"Jia'er doesn't know. She probably dies and follows you underground."
"No, you have more important things to do."
"Huh? Oh, Your Majesty, please don't scare me... Jia'er is so scared."
"Haha~"
...
"You know what? I really want to have a child with you, but you are still a child."
"...Jia'er also wants to have a baby."
When Zhuang Jingjia watched the unconscious emperor being rescued from the water, with his right leg broken, white bones protruding from the muscles, and blood dyeing the water of Taiye Pond red, his mind was like a revolving door.
The emperor who told him these words stayed up all night in Kunning Palace, repeatedly revising the upcoming reform edict.
Zhuang Jingjia could see from the emperor's flushed cheeks, flaring noses and eyes shining with hope that the emperor had a special affection for this country and its people. His upright body contained determination and enthusiasm that he had never seen before, like a torch that was about to burn him to ashes, like a straight green pine in winter, or like a tall and strong bamboo in late autumn.
"No, my husband is not a torch. He is the lord of this universe of humans and gods. He is the blazing sun, the god who came to the world to save the people. He will be fine, he will be fine!"
...
When Zhu Yijun was rushed to Bailu Palace, he had not yet woken up from his coma. The groom Li Liu and the other three people who were waiting for Zhuiyin had their jaws removed and were tied up in front of Bailu Palace, under guard by the guards.
"Wan Mi Zhai, Chen Shi Gong, and Mr. Lu Zuyu are all here!"
When Zhuang Jingjia heard Wei Chao's report, she quickly got up from the bed and stood waiting quietly. In such an emergency, no one came to remind her of the difference between men and women.
The doctors did not talk nonsense at the entrance of the palace, nor did they ask for an audience. They entered the emperor's bedroom with their assistants and instruments.
Zhuang Jingjia doesn't talk too much, because she knows that these people will go all out! She just said: "Don't tie your hands and treat the emperor as a normal person."
In the presence of the Queen, several doctors did not dare to raise their heads. After hearing this, everyone felt relieved. Chen Shigong bowed and replied: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, we will go all out and do not dare to put self-protection first." Wan Mi Zhai and Lu Zuyu were not experts in surgery. Chen Shigong was the main expert in this treatment session. The two of them followed suit and bowed, saying that they did not dare to shirk their responsibilities and miss the sacred bow.
Although Wan Mi Zhai is a leader, he is too old after all, so he is just here to take charge. Lu Zuyu was not polite to him. He placed the silver paper tube binaural stethoscope on Zhu Yijun's chest and listened carefully for a while.
After coughing lightly, Lu Zuyu said: "The emperor must have choked on a sip of water, but not much. His trachea and lungs were not seriously injured, and his internal organs were not injured." Zhuang Jingjia let out a sigh of relief after hearing this.
Lu Zuyu exposed the emperor's wrist and took the pulse first to confirm that his auscultation was correct. Then he opened Zhu Yijun's eyelids and observed. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The emperor probably kowtowed when he fell into the pool. Fortunately, he was wearing a helmet. It was only a shock and he should wake up soon." After quickly diagnosing that the emperor's life was not in danger, he gave up his position and let Chen Shigong deal with the emperor's leg injury.
When Chen Shigong saw the emperor's injured leg that had been cut open and exposed, he gritted his teeth first and his heart was pounding. He bowed and said to Zhuang Jingjia: "With the medical school's method of diagnosing and treating trauma, the wound must be cleaned first - it is best to disinfect it quickly while the emperor is unconscious."
Zhuang Jingjia calmed down, suppressed her nervousness and said, "Well, I said, you should treat the emperor as if he were a normal person."
After receiving the approval, Chen Shigong took a bucket of medical alcohol from his assistant and washed Zhu Yijun's wound himself. Zhuang Jingjia saw that the unconscious emperor seemed to be in pain, his brows furrowed, his hands and feet twitched slightly, and his heart hurt like a knife.
Chen Shigong then arranged for his assistant to go to bed and hold down the emperor's thigh. He first touched the surrounding area of the emperor's fracture and prepared to set the emperor's bones.
Zhuang Jingjia did not dare to look, so she beckoned Wei Chao over and said, "Arrange for someone to inform the Queen Mother of the diagnosis results of the imperial doctors, so that they will not be anxious." Wei Chao agreed. Before leaving the palace, I heard someone calling from outside: "The Empress Dowager Rensheng has arrived!"
This registration interrupted Chen Shigong's movements. He raised his head and looked at the Queen, and was startled when he saw the look of determination on the Queen's face.
"You don't need to stop, continue to treat the emperor." Zhuang Jingjia ordered and walked out of the bedroom to welcome the Queen Mother.
Empress Dowager Chen, who was only wearing ordinary clothes, came running from Ciqing Palace in a phoenix chariot. The people carrying the baby were so pressed by her that they all squatted outside the main hall of Bailu Palace and gasped. After Queen Mother Chen got off the chariot, she went straight to the emperor's chamber and met the queen who came out to greet her.
When she met Zhuang Jingjia, Queen Mother Chen asked: "Is it okay? Is it okay?" Zhuang Jingjia saluted and replied: "The old gentleman at the medical school has diagnosed and treated her, and there is no serious problem, but she is not awake yet."
Tears rolled down Queen Mother Chen's face, and she cursed: "Both the left and the right deserve to die! How can we let the emperor ride a horse?! And you -"
Zhuang Jingjia's eyes were red and she saluted, "Yes, Queen Mother, please go and see the Emperor first." After saying that, she put her hand in front of Queen Mother Chen and motioned to Queen Mother Chen to support her.
These words reminded Queen Mother Chen, but she ignored Zhuang Jingjia's humility and walked into the emperor's living room on her own.
At this time, Chen Shigong had reset the emperor's broken bones and was suturing the wounds. When Queen Mother Chen saw the bed covered with blood and gauze, and the emperor's calf was horribly swollen, she felt dizzy, as if she was about to faint.
Zhuang Jingjia quickly asked the people around her to help the Queen Mother and sit down on a chair in the palace. Queen Mother Chen calmed down and asked Zhuang Jingjia what happened. In a few words, Zhuang Jingjia told the story of how the emperor's horse was frightened and fell into the Taiye Pool.
Queen Mother Chen asked: "Since it fell into the water, why was it hurt so badly?"
Zhuang Jingjia said with tears: "What the Queen Mother said is that unfortunately the water where the Emperor fell was shallow, and there was a rockery beside the pool. The Emperor's leg was injured first, and when he turned over, he knocked his head again. Fortunately, there was The helmet is blocking it."
After hearing this, Queen Mother Chen asked: "Have you notified the outer court?"
Before Zhuang Jingjia could answer, she heard someone calling outside the palace: "The Empress Dowager Cisheng has arrived!"
But Queen Mother Li also arrived. Queen Zhuang quickly confessed her crime and stood at the palace gate to greet her.
Although the internal eunuch urgently reported to the Empress Dowager Cisheng before, she informed the imperial doctor of the diagnosis. Empress Dowager Li was still anxious all the way, and when she arrived, she looked cold and threatening.
Seeing Li Liu and his companions tied up in the yard, Queen Mother Li sternly scolded: "Those who slack off in their duties and are in dangerous places will be killed immediately!"
After hearing this, Zhuang Jingjia hurriedly stopped and said: "Queen Mother, no. These few will be kept for interrogation and asked if there is an envoy."
After hearing this, Queen Mother Li took a long breath and nodded: "The Queen is right, but I was negligent. How is the Emperor now?"
Zhuang Jingjia repeated what she had said to Queen Mother Chen, and Queen Mother Li was so angry that she burst into tears and said, "How many lawsuits have been filed against me because of the horse riding incident? How dare he still dares to do so after this!"
When Empress Dowager Li entered the bedroom, the two palaces met with a sigh of relief. The two people didn't have the nerve to scold the queen, but they scolded everyone from Sun Long to Wei Chao and others, as if they wanted to kill them immediately.
Zhuang Jingjia listened for a while and said in a low voice: "Queen Mother, we can't help here. Why don't we go to the side hall and wait - so as not to disturb the doctor."
After hearing this, Queen Mother Li raised her eyebrows and glanced at Zhuang Jingjia. The Queen Mother Chen asked the same question: "Has the foreign court been notified?"
Zhuang Jingjia nodded and said: "I have notified the cabinet and the Royal Horse Supervisor. Mr. Zhang will be here soon."
Empress Dowager Li nodded after hearing this and said: "Well, it would be better to place the Royal Horse Prison in Xiyuan - I thought you could scare Ma Claw, but I didn't expect that your arrangements were sound and logical."
Zhuang Jingjia nodded gratefully and saw that the Queen Mother had no intention of leaving the palace. She raised her head and looked at Queen Mother Li and asked: "Mother, where is Zhang Hong, the Supervisor of Ceremonies? Such a big thing has happened, and the person holding the seal should come and take care of it."
After hearing this, Empress Dowager Li said: "Yes, you are right. Hurry up and arrange for someone to call him over!" After hearing this, the internal eunuch who was waiting around him withdrew.
Zhuang Jingjia stopped talking and thought quietly for a while, then asked Queen Mother Li: "Mother, if King Lu heard that the emperor was like this, he would definitely feel sad. He usually likes his brother the most - should he be allowed to come over? Visitation?”
Queen Mother Li felt a little weird when she saw that the Queen asked Zhang Hong first and then King Lu. He couldn't help but raise his voice and said to the female officer who followed him: "Go and deliver my instructions and tie Zhang Hong here!"
Zhuang Jingjia listened but had no expression on her face. Seeing that Empress Dowager Li did not mention Prince Lu, but only talked about Zhang Hong, she bowed again and said, "Can I arrange a small chariot to carry Prince Lu here?"
After hearing this, Empress Dowager Li finally got angry and said: "What do you mean by always asking Prince Lu to come over? The Emperor is not seriously ill. It won't be too late for Prince Lu to come visit again when he wakes up."
Zhuang Jingjia listened and said nothing. Queen Mother Li babbled something else, but she stopped listening. He only looked at Chen Shigong's suturing operation, pretending to be deaf and dumb.
Chen Shigong and others finally sewed up the emperor's wound, applied trauma medicine, and fixed the broken bone with a splint.
He gave the queen and the people around her the care instructions. Zhuang Jingjia memorized it carefully and asked Wan Mi Zhai: "Does the old gentleman have any other instructions?"
After hearing this, Wan Mi Zhai said: "My intention is the same as that of Chen Shigong. The emperor's leg is injured, so we must prevent infection. When cleaning the dragon bed, the emperor's body cannot be moved for the time being. When the emperor wakes up later, don't let him Move that injured leg. - I'll be waiting in the side hall, and I'll be on duty in the next few days."
Empress Dowager Chen interjected and asked: "Will the emperor's leg be in trouble in the future?" Chen Shigong hurriedly interjected: "As long as the emperor does not move this leg for a month, there should be no sequelae." After hearing this, Empress Dowager Li and Queen Mother Chen recited Buddha's name at the same time.
After Zhuang Jingjia heard this, she couldn't help but bow to Wan Mi Zhai and others. Wan Mi Zhai hurriedly said: "You are not worthy of Your Highness's courtesy." He quickly avoided it and exited the emperor's chamber with Chen Shigong.
When the two palaces heard Wan Mi Zhai say that the emperor would wake up soon, the pressure in their hearts eased a little. Queen Mother Li asked Zhuang Jingjia to sit down and asked softly: "Just now you said you wanted Prince Lu to come. What do you mean?"
Zhuang Jingjia stared with big eyes and said: "Mother, don't say that King Lu is already ten years old. He is a toddler. In this situation, he should also come and see his brother. I don't choose the gifts of children - but please give me the instructions of the queen."
Queen Mother Li was furious when she heard that the Queen was still chattering about asking King Lu to visit her brother. He sneered and said: "The family relationship of the Tian family is cold and bloody because of your thoughts, but I don't know where you studied history and read the scriptures - can I still harm the emperor? I am his brother Mom, he grew so big because of the meat that fell from my belly!"
