The Peerless Concubine of the King's Favorite

Chapter 399 Awakening of the Emperor Chu, the Night of the Palace Change (1)
Seeing that it was almost time, Zhao Shengqian nodded slightly to Zhao Shenghao, and the latter blew a whistle, and the Futu Guards who had been ambushing nearby waiting for orders appeared like heavenly soldiers.

Immediately, the battle situation became turbulent again.

In the deep night dew, the stars and the moon are dim.

In the huge Chu Palace, it seemed that silence had also fallen.The majestic and majestic palaces in the daytime become extremely ferocious at night, as if there are monsters entrenched in this place of dragon veins, swallowing clouds and mist.

In the darkness, there were occasional flashes of fire, accompanied by the sound of neat armor, which should be the guards on duty patrolling the night.

The servants and maids, except those on duty, also went back to their rooms to rest.In the middle of the night, walking recklessly in the palace is a taboo of the court.

Qianqing Palace, the emperor's bedroom, is located between the Queen's Kunyu Palace and the Imperial Study Room.

Here is a separate bedroom belonging to the king of a country, and no one can enter without being summoned.

At this time, there was still a twilight in the palace, and the surroundings were quiet, as if everyone had fallen asleep.

Everything looked so peaceful, as if it was the same as before.

In the Qianqing Palace, Queen Qiao was sitting beside the dragon bed, her eyes were haggard, and her spirit was not like the original spirit.At this moment, all she could see was Emperor Chu Zhao Cong lying unconscious on the bed, and everything around her seemed to have nothing to do with her.

"Your Majesty, wake up quickly. The concubine can't do anything anymore..." As smart as her, even if she was deliberately concealed, how could she not be aware of the abnormality in the court these two days?
Unfortunately, no matter how Queen Qiao called, Zhao Cong still lay unconscious on the bed.

"Mother's Empress." Since Zhao Yahou received Sang Youqing's reminder, she has been by Empress Qiao's side, and at night she also accompanied her to watch her father.

Seeing the sad look on the empress mother's face, Zhao Yahou stood beside Empress Qiao in distress, her worried eyes slowly fell from her mother to her father.

Zhao Cong, lying flat on the bed, has been unconscious for many days. His plump cheeks have already sunken, his face is blue, his temples are stained with frost, and his lips that have lost their luster have also become a little dark purple. As old as ten years old.

A trace of resentment flashed in Zhao Yahou's eyes, resentment for the person who murdered his father, how could he be so cruel.

Although she knew some inside information, she didn't know the reason for it. At this moment, she only had a mission in her mind, and all of this was caused by the competition between several elder brothers for the throne.

"Empress Mother, Emperor Father will be fine." Zhao Yahou held Empress Qiao's arm, speaking softly and steadily.

At this moment, she didn't know what to do other than comfort her mother.

Empress Qiao nodded her head almost indistinctly. In her heart, she would rather believe that the most important man in her life would not leave her just like that.

At this time, a person ran from the side hall, bowing his body with a very respectful expression.

"Empress, please see Doctor Zhang." The person who came was Zhao Cong's servant, Tianxi who had been with him all the time.

The old man also looked very haggard at the moment, and his hair, which was always combed meticulously, was a little messy at the moment.

"Oh? I'm coming right now." The eager report made Queen Qiao's body tremble with excitement, she immediately stood up, and quickly walked down the steps of the dragon bed with Zhao Yazhen's support.

Tianxi bowed her head and stepped back, telling Queen Qiao what she said.

Zhao Yapin supported Empress Qiao's right hand, felt her fingertips trembling slightly, and quickly comforted her: "Queen Mother, please don't worry. There must be good news for Doctor Zhang to see you."

"That's right, Doctor Zhang has been studying your father's condition these days. He must have made some progress, so he will see me late at night." Empress Qiao's brows were full of excitement. The doctor is full of expectations.

Empress Qiao, with the support of the Eldest Princess Zhao Yalai, walked from the inner hall of Qianqing Palace to the side hall, and then stepped into the side hall, the two of them saw Imperial Doctor Zhang, who was wearing an imperial doctor's official uniform, waiting in the hall with his hands down.

The sound of footsteps came to Doctor Zhang's ears.

He didn't raise his head, but bowed his head and knelt down, saluting to those who came: "My minister, Zhang He, is attending the empress empress, and the empress is a thousand years old."

After finishing speaking, he seemed to feel another footstep. He raised his head slightly, glanced at Zhao Yalin, quickly lowered his eyes, and quickly added: "Participate in Your Royal Highness, a thousand years old, a thousand years old."

"Get up, it's a critical time, so don't pay so much attention to politeness." Queen Qiao waved her hand away from Imperial Doctor Zhang before he finished speaking.

"Thank you, empress." Even so, Doctor Zhang respectfully thanked her before standing up.

Empress Qiao sat on the first seat, and Zhao Yahou followed beside her.

At the moment, there are not too many servants and maids in the side hall, only a few here and there waiting for orders.After Tianxi sent the message, she returned to the inner hall to accompany Zhao Cong, and now they dare not let the emperor be alone anymore.

"Doctor Zhang, you asked to see him late at night, but what happened to your Majesty's condition?" Queen Qiao asked impatiently.

She knew that Zhao Cong was poisoned rather than sick, and so did the imperial doctor.However, when speaking out, everyone has a tacit understanding to match it with illness.

"Reporting to the empress, I have indeed made some progress. Although it cannot completely relieve your majesty's suffering, it can wake up your majesty from a coma." Doctor Zhang knew that this matter was of great importance, so he had confidence in his heart After that, he rushed into the palace overnight.

"Really!" Queen Qiao stood up from the chair in surprise, and some light came back to her haggard eyes: "Are you really sure to wake up His Majesty?"

The current situation in the palace is delicate, and the crown prince and others have been forced to leave the capital. If there is a real palace change, she, a queen who does not hold military power, may not even be able to protect herself.

Is it just relying on those imperial guards and imperial guards who protect the royal family?Leaving aside whether they have the strength to fight, she doesn't know who among these people can be trusted.

Therefore, if the emperor can wake up now, maybe things will turn around.

"I don't dare to say that I am very sure, but I dare say that I have seven points." Doctor Zhang's medical skills are the best among all the imperial doctors. He can say such words, which makes Empress Qiao feel at ease.

"So, what are you waiting for? Give your Majesty the medicine." Queen Qiao quickly ordered.

"Doctor Zhang, have you tested this medicine?" Suddenly, Zhao Yazhen pulled her mother back, and looked at Zhang He warily.

Zhang He still stood with his head bowed, and he didn't show any superfluous expression when he heard the eldest princess's questioning, he just replied calmly: "Nothing."

Zhao Yahou lightly frowned, her voice was a bit cold: "Since that's the case, why do you dare to say that you are [-]% sure?"

These words made Queen Qiao completely wake up from the excitement that the emperor could be rescued.The scrutinizing eyes also fell on Zhang He's body, and those sharp eyes almost pierced his body.
