Harem for a living

Chapter 218

Before Chen Manrou could be happy, the Empress Dowager Ci'an quickly counterattacked - fainted!In front of Chen Manrou, she just rolled her eyes and passed out!Chen Manrou couldn't help but open her mouth wide. If Lichun hadn't pinched her from behind, she would hardly be able to react.

"Empress Dowager!" When she recovered, Chen Manrou immediately called out miserably. The voice almost knocked off the roof, her eyes turned red, and Chen Manrou quickly ran to the side of the soft couch, and directly pulled Nanny Ping Mammy squeezed away, and shook the Empress Dowager Ci'an's shoulders with both hands: "Your Majesty, are you okay? Madam Empress, wake up, what's going on? Where's the imperial doctor? Call the imperial doctor quickly, Are you all stupid? Do you have to tell me to call the imperial doctor?"

While shaking the Empress Dowager Ci'an, Chen Manrou gave orders quickly, not without nervousness and worry, if she had the reputation of being an embarrassing empress dowager, she would be doomed.

"What are you all standing there for?" Chen Manrou turned her head and reprimanded, "Why don't you quickly help the Empress Dowager?" After thinking for a while, she turned to look at Nanny Ping: "Mother Ping, go check it out. Look at what the empress dowager has used from last night to now, who has passed through it, and who has taken care of the empress dowager's clothes. The eunuchs and maids of Ci'an Palace have recently If anyone is not quite right, I will give you an hour, and you will give me a satisfactory answer in a while."

Taking advantage of the trend, Chen Manrou first pulled this matter away from herself.It is better to say that the queen mother was murdered than to say that the queen mother was stunned by herself.Besides, she also didn't believe that the Queen Mother had such a small capacity, comparable to Xiaoqiang's vitality and jumping strength, how could she be fainted because of such a trivial matter?
Besides, the matter of Tang Wan'er's promotion is the root of the Empress Dowager Ci'an's struggle. The setbacks brought about by this incident in the past are definitely greater than the blows brought by Chen Manrou this time. The Empress Dowager Ci'an has survived until now, why? May fall all at once?
In any case, the possibility of the Empress Dowager Ci'an being murdered is the greatest.

"Director Ming, go to the gate and pass on the imperial decree to order all the guards to obey the order, strictly guard the Ci'an Palace, and not allow anyone to go out." After a moment of panic passed, Chen Manrou's eyes sharpened, and now she could only see the trick Fortunately, the queen mother was unconscious, and no one could accuse her of unfilial piety.

Then he ordered people to invite the emperor, and Chen Manrou's confidants also invited them.

Turning her gaze back, Chen Manrou glanced at Tang Wan'er. Tang Wan'er's face was pale, her eyes were a little frightened, her lips were trembling, and she wanted to speak, but in the end she just glanced at the inner door and closed it again. on the mouth.

"You don't need to be reminded by me, you should know what to do right now?" Chen Manrou asked in a deep voice, Concubine De stood up first and saluted: "Empress, don't worry, I will understand what to do."

"Come in with me." Chen Manrou nodded, turned around and walked into the inner room, and everyone behind followed quickly.The imperial doctor hadn't come yet, and everyone didn't dare to speak and act casually, so a group of people stood quietly in the inner room like a group of sculptures.

It took a long time before someone came with the imperial doctor.Chen Manrou scanned several imperial physicians, and saw the one in front, an imperial physician she was not familiar with.Well, in fact, apart from Li Yuyi and Cheng Yuyi, Chen Manrou is basically not familiar with the imperial doctors of Tai Hospital.

Doctor Li is proficient in gynecology and is now the queen's exclusive doctor. Doctor Cheng is proficient in pediatrics. Chen Manrou has three children.So these two are particularly familiar.In addition, there are Imperial Physicians Liu and Imperial Physician Lu, these two are the emperor's exclusive imperial physicians, and Chen Manrou is somewhat familiar with them.

However, the Queen Mother's exclusive imperial physician is Royal Physician Wang, and today she suddenly changed to Imperial Physician Zheng, whom she is not familiar with, and something is not quite right.On weekdays, the imperial physician who was in charge of the case of the three contacts of the empress, empress, and empress had no holidays and had to go to work during the day, and had to keep someone on duty when he was not at work.

When Royal Physician Wang was not in the Imperial Hospital, all he left behind was his apprentice Physician Zhang.So at this moment, even if Royal Physician Wang is not in the Tai Hospital, Ying Ai is Physician Zhang who is here.

"Wait, is it your turn to be on duty today?" Chen Manrou stepped forward, quickly stopped the imperial doctor Zheng, and asked sullenly, while Tang Wan'er frowned: "Empress Empress, you should feel the pulse of Empress Dowager first, right?" What's the matter, why don't you ask later?"

"The empress dowager fainted for no reason. This matter is very strange. I must not miss any suspicious things. Obviously, the doctor who gave the empress dowager a pulse on weekdays is the doctor Wang, but it is not the doctor Wang who came today. I have the right to suspect that Imperial Physician Zheng was bought by someone! In case Imperial Physician Zheng hurts the Empress Dowager later when she feels the pulse of the Empress Dowager, Tang Zhaorong might be able to bear the consequences?"

Chen Manrou didn't go around anymore, and directly threw the question on Tang Waner's face.Tang Wan'er's face paled and turned blue, and after a while she said angrily: "It's because the Empress Dowager doubts the doctor Zheng Yu, so you won't let the Empress Dowager take the pulse? The concubine is even more suspicious, because the Empress Dowager is afraid that the Empress Dowager will wake up!"

"Send someone to pass on to Royal Physician Wang!" Chen Manrou ignored her, turned around and ordered, Li Xia responded, and went out immediately, Tang Wan'er's face became even better, and she almost came up to slap Chen Manrou.

After taking two deep breaths, Tang Wan'er forced a smile and said, "Empress Empress, we don't know what's wrong with Empress Dowager. If there is a sudden illness, if you don't check the pulse right now, it may be too late."

After a pause, he looked suddenly enlightened: "If the Empress is worried about Imperial Physician Zheng, then let someone search her body first, and then ask Imperial Physician Zheng to take the pulse."

Chen Manrou's thoughts changed sharply. If she just refused, she might not be able to explain clearly later.No one knows how the queen mother fainted, it may be a sudden illness, or it may be just pretending.

If it's the former, if it's delayed, then I, the queen, will have done it too.If it was the latter, then Imperial Physician Zheng would not be able to step forward to feel the pulse, but it would be impossible not to allow Imperial Physician Zheng to step forward, because if the Queen Mother pretended to be, no matter what she did, Chen Manrou's whole body would be wrong.

"Your Majesty, this servant knows a little bit of medical skills, why don't you let your servant feel the pulse of the Empress Dowager first?" Just when Chen Manrou was in a dilemma and almost tore off her hair, Lidong said suddenly.

Chen Manrou instantly remembered that this Lidong was a direct disciple of the previous Lidong.And the last Lidong, it was the teacher and the moon.In terms of medical skills, Lidong can also be called a doctor.

"Yes, I almost forgot that Lidong is also good at medicine." Chen Manrou was pleasantly surprised, and she didn't care about exposing her cards at the moment. Anyway, everyone knew that Lidong next to the queen The girl knows medicine.

It is not a concealment for someone who understands medicine to say that he knows a little bit of medical skills.Besides, so what if it was concealed?In this palace, who doesn't hide a hand or two of cards?As far as she knew, the big maid next to Concubine Hui knew things that pregnant women should not touch very well, even Lidong couldn't compare to her.

"Isn't this too child's play?" Tang Wan'er's face changed again, and she looked at Chen Manrou in disbelief: "Lidong is just a court lady, and, she said she knows medicine, can we believe that she can do medicine? Even if it is her Knowing medical skills, can she compare to the imperial doctor?"

"Tang Zhaorong, my palace has never said that Lidong is not good at medicine. Besides, what's wrong with the maids? Lidong is the big palace lady next to me. In terms of rank, only the pen and ink palace ladies in the Emperor's Qianqing Palace can compare."

Even the concubines with lower status in the palace had to respectfully call Lidong sister when they saw Lidong.

"What's more, Lidong is only checking the pulse of the Empress Dowager. If the illness of the Empress Dowager is beyond Lidong's ability, she will naturally let Xian. Is it true that Zheng Yuyi can't even wait for this little time?"

As Chen Manrou said, she turned to look at Tang Zhaorong: "Or is it that Tang Zhaorong doesn't allow others to waste time, but he himself wastes time on delaying the Empress Dowager's condition?"

Tang Wan'er was speechless for a moment, she gave Lidong a deadly look, then she turned around silently, Lidong saluted, and stepped forward to feel the empress dowager's pulse.The longer the time, the more serious Lidong's face became, and the more afraid the surrounding group of people were to make any noise.

In the end, it was Tang Wan'er who shouted: "Lidong, are you delaying time? I warn you, if you delay the condition of the Empress Dowager, I will never get around you! I will kill you!"

Chen Manrou frowned: "Tang Zhaorong, if you disturb Lidong and make Lidong's diagnosis wrong, can you afford it?"

Tang Wan'er was about to speak when Lidong over there stuffed the Queen Mother's hand into the quilt, then got up to salute Chen Manrou.Tang Wan'er was the most anxious, and immediately stepped forward and asked, "How is it? How is the Empress Dowager?"

"The emperor is here!" Lidong was about to open his mouth when a notification came from the door, and then the emperor stepped into the room.A group of people hurriedly saluted, but the emperor ignored him, and strode to the bed: "How is the queen mother? What did the imperial doctor say?"

Tang Wan'er immediately complained: "When you return to the emperor, the imperial doctor has already arrived, but the empress does not want the imperial doctor to check the empress dowager's pulse. At this moment, the concubine and others don't know what's going on."

The emperor immediately turned to look at Chen Manrou. Chen Manrou carefully observed the emperor's expression, and she was slightly relieved. As long as the emperor didn't question her immediately, there was still room for change in this matter.What she was afraid of was that the emperor would be suspicious of her indiscriminately, and then lose his temper.

"If you go back to the emperor, it's not that I'm suspicious, but that the empress dowager fainted for no apparent reason, and it's not the imperial doctor who usually took the pulse of the empress dowager, so I really don't dare to take risks." Chen Manrou saluted immediately and said: " However, my concubine has already asked Lidong to feel the pulse of the empress dowager, Lidong knows a little bit of medical skills, the emperor still remembers?"

The emperor glanced at Lidong, nodded slightly, he naturally knew the people around the queen like the palm of his hand.It's not that this Lidong has only a little medical skills, it can't be compared with the imperial doctors of the imperial hospital, but if it is placed outside, it can also be used for consultation independently.

"Lidong, what happened to the empress dowager?" The emperor asked directly without any doubt.This pissed Tang Wan'er who was standing on one side to death, the handkerchief in her hand was almost torn in half, but unfortunately, the quality of the fabric was too good.
