Tang Dynasty: The pot is tied to the duck nest, the little rhinoceros is here!

I'm currently reading Chapter 182, "Empress Zhangsun Has Fallen Ill!", and I'm completely engrossed in it.

"Guanyinbi, get me another piece." Li Shimin wolfed down a piece of cake, still wanting more; it was just too fragrant and delicious.

"Mother, stay away from Grandpa. You're too hot-tempered. Grandpa is too hot-tempered. Don't let him get all hot-tempered," Si Zi quickly reminded her.

Li Shimin: "..." Damn it, this little cotton-padded jacket is too drafty.

Li Lizhi, Princess Chengyang, and Empress Zhangsun couldn't help but laugh when they saw this scene.

"Alright, there's still plenty of cake left, no need to be so wary of Grandpa!" Li Lizhi patted Sizi's little head, then looked at Empress Zhangsun and Li Shimin: "Mother, Grandpa, we'll head back now!"

"Okay, go ahead!"

Li Lizhi led the three dukes, Chengyang and Sizi, back to the Fengyang Pavilion's sleeping quarters. Then she had a maid summon the Crown Prince and the others.

After their daughters left, Empress Zhangsun and Li Shimin ate cake and chatted.

Since there were many cakes and they couldn't be stored for too long, Empress Zhangsun also shared some with her personal maids and eunuchs.

Just as she finished giving the order, Empress Zhangsun suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest and her breathing became rapid.

The sudden turn of events startled Li Shimin, who quickly came over to support Empress Zhangsun and asked with concern, "Guanyinbi, what happened to you? You were fine just now, why did you suddenly..."

Empress Zhangsun forced a smile and said, "It's an old ailment, Erlang, don't worry, it'll be fine in a little while..."

"Someone, summon the imperial physician immediately!"

Li Shimin, no longer in the mood for cake, quickly gave an order to the outside.

Zhang Anan quickly summoned Empress Zhangsun's maid, gave her a few quick instructions, and then sent her off to the Imperial Medical Bureau.

……

It was already dark when Xiao Sizi continued to feast in Li Lizhi's palace.

Now, his brothers and sisters have all arrived, and the little guy is burying his head in his food.

"Dongmei, sister, it's almost time for you to go to bed soon! Otherwise, your brothers and sisters will have finished you off."

Xiao Sizi not only ate some herself, but also shared some with her personal maid, Dongmei.

"Sizi, how's the fan I asked you to ask about last time? I even gave you the jade ruyi that Grandpa gave me."

At this moment, Li Tai, with his large pregnant belly, walked up to Si Zi and asked solicitously.

"Fan? I forgot!" Little Sizi

"Uh... I forgot! How could you do this? I gave you all my brother's treasures!"

Xiao Sizi looked at Li Tai's aggrieved expression but didn't care at all.

Instead, she urged Sister Dongmei to eat quickly, lest her brother snatch it away.

Moreover, these hurtful words were said to Li Tai's face, almost causing Li Tai to lose his temper on the spot.

However, Li Tai couldn't care less about that now; he felt that what Si Zi said made sense.

This heavenly food is best enjoyed with a full stomach first; as for the fan, we can worry about that after we've finished eating.

Just as the princesses and princes were happily enjoying their cake, a series of hurried footsteps came from afar.

She was carrying a lantern and was rushing towards the princess's residence.

Upon seeing someone approaching, Li Lizhi quickly went to greet them.

Upon approaching, he discovered it was his grandfather's servant, Zhang Anan.

"General Zhang, it's so late, is there something you need at the princess's residence?"

Li Lizhi asked Zhang Anan softly.

Zhang Anan, without wiping the sweat from his brow, whispered to Li Lizhi, "Your Highness, the Empress has fallen ill. His Majesty ordered me to come and fetch Princess Jinyang to return. At this moment, the imperial physicians are also helpless regarding the Empress's illness."

"What? My mother..." Upon hearing that her mother had fallen ill, Li Lizhi suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

However, the princesses nearby were all engrossed in eating their cakes under Xiao Sizi's influence, and Li Lizhi's exclamation did not attract their attention.

Li Lizhi quickly lowered her voice and asked Zhang Anan, "Why did Grandpa send you to find Sizi? Could it be...?"

"Well... it's a long story. Let Princess Jinyang come with me to see His Majesty first. The Empress's condition can't wait!"

Hearing this, Li Lizhi didn't dare to delay. Although she had some guesses,

However, when Xiao Si asked Jiang Fan last time, Brother Fan only said he would think of a way, but didn't give a specific method.

During her time with Jiang Fan, Li Lizhi could easily see that Jiang Fan did not possess any so-called "immortal magic".

However, what I need to do right now is to deliver the ox to the Rissei Hall.

At crucial moments, the eldest princess was still able to distinguish between what was important and what was urgent.

Then she turned to Xiao Sizi and whispered, "Sizi, come back to the Lizheng Palace with your elder sister immediately!"

"Ah! Pick them right away? We haven't had enough yet, sister. Can we wait a little longer?"

"Listen to me, go with your sister, quick!"

Xiao Sizi wanted to try again, after all, there were so many cakes tonight, if she left, wouldn't they all be ruined by others?

But seeing Li Lizhi's unwavering gaze, Xiao Sizi chickened out.

Ultimately, the bloodline suppression from the elder sister prevailed.

So Xiao Sizi left the rest of the KFC at the Princess's residence, and drove Li Lizhi quickly to the Lizheng Palace.

……

Inside the Lizheng Hall, the lights were on.

However, inside the hall, more than a dozen imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Bureau were kneeling on the ground, trembling with fear.

They were practically burying their heads in the bluestone floor.

Li Shimin nestled beside the folding chair, holding Empress Zhangsun's hand.

The tears in her eyes fell like beads on a string.

"Guanyinbi, what's wrong with you? You were fine just now, how could you suddenly... Wake up, don't scare me..."

Li Shimin truly loved Empress Zhangsun.

In Li Shimin's heart, Empress Zhangsun was first and foremost his principal wife.

Secondly, there was the Empress. Empress Zhangsun married Li Shimin at the age of thirteen.

They relied on each other, sharing joys and sorrows, even during the coup at Xuanwu Gate.

When he was fighting with his elder brother and younger brother at Xuanwu Gate

Empress Zhangsun stood firmly behind Li Shimin, and even personally came to the soldiers to comfort them before they set off.

This Guanyin maid had long been ingrained in Li Shimin's heart.

The imperial physicians below were utterly panicked upon witnessing this scene.

Although Empress Zhangsun usually had her own imperial physicians prescribe medicine to regulate her health,

However, their medical skills were insufficient to cure Empress Zhangsun's intractable illness.

Even the Taoist priest and renowned physician Sun were helpless against qi-related illnesses.

So much so that Master Sun is now traveling among the people, searching all over the world for remedies to treat qi-related ailments.

Although we physicians hold the title of imperial physicians, our medical skills are worlds apart from those of Master Sun.

Because they were helpless against the illness, they all buried themselves in their work and became invisible, none of them wanting to be the unlucky one named by the emperor.
