The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 441
As the sky gradually turned dark, candle lamps were lit up in various palaces in the palace.

Seeing that the emperor was still grading papers, Fuquan walked gently to the imperial case and reminded him in a low voice, "Your Majesty, it's time for dinner."

Hearing this, the emperor raised his head and glanced at the engraving: "It's so late, let's serve dinner."

After a pause, he asked Cui Hengyue again: "By the way, is Cui Yuanniang awake?"

Knowing that the emperor cared about Cui Hengyue, Fuquan sent people to watch him all the time. When the emperor asked about it, he quickly replied: "Reporting to Your Majesty, Cui Yuanniang woke up an hour ago."

The emperor put down the booklet, stood up and went out, not forgetting to reprimand Fuquan: "Didn't I tell you to tell me as soon as Cui Yuanniang woke up?"

"Yes, I know I was wrong."

Fuquan first admitted his mistake, and then stopped the emperor: "Your Majesty, Cui Yuanniang ate something after waking up, and now she fell asleep again."

Seeing the emperor stopped, Fuquan said again: "Your Majesty also saw it at the time, Cui Yuanniang was seriously injured, and Imperial Physician He said that she should stay in bed to recuperate, you should eat first and let her have a good sleep."

Sick people need more sleep to recover quickly. When he was young, his mother always told him this way. Thinking of this, the emperor turned around and went to the dining hall.

But after finishing the meal, the emperor took a walk in the yard, and still walked to Cui Hengyue's room.

"Your Majesty." The maid guarding the door hurriedly saluted the emperor.

The emperor signaled them to be silent, and walked in lightly.

Ju Hong, who was waiting in the outer room, saw the emperor and wanted to salute, but was stopped by the emperor. She silently closed her mouth according to the emperor's instructions.

".What are you going to do now." Shui Rong suddenly stopped talking, and looked back to the outer room.

someone is coming.

Shui Rong was about to remind Cui Hengyue, when she saw that Cui Hengyue had closed her eyes, pretending to be sleeping.

Seeing this, Shui Rong immediately got up and stood at the end of the bed, looking at her nose and heart.

When the emperor walked into the inner room, he first looked at the person on the bed. His face was pale and his eyes were closed tightly. It seemed that something bad happened in his sleep. She frowned and looked very restless.

The footsteps approached, Shui Rong finally heard the movement, turned to see the emperor: "Your Majesty"

"Shh-"

After the emperor signaled her to keep quiet, he walked to the bed and stared at Cui Hengyue for a while.

Afterwards, the emperor softly told Shui Rong to take good care of Cui Hengyue and left.

The footsteps gradually faded away, Ju Hong walked in, first looked at the person on the bed, saw that Cui Hengyue was still sleeping, then walked to Shui Rong, and asked in a low voice: "Sister Shui Rong, what are you doing?"

"I don't know, His Majesty just looked at Yuan Niang for a while, then told me to take care of Yuan Niang, and then left."

Just take a look?

Ju Hong rolled her eyes and thought for a while: "Sister Shui Rong, you think His Majesty won't really have a crush on Yuan Niang?"

"Don't talk about the master, Yuan Niang is His Majesty's cousin, she was injured, and His Majesty came to see her just out of kinship." When Shui Rong reprimanded her, she kept lowering her voice, as if she was afraid of waking Cui Hengyue.

Only a few hours older.

Ju Hong couldn't help slandering, she didn't dare to refute on the face, said yes, and went out.

After Ju Hong left, after waiting for a while, Cui Hengyue opened her eyes.

"Yuan Niang, Your Majesty seems to care about you, why don't you see His Majesty?" Shui Rong asked.

Ugh--

Cui Hengyue sighed silently. Although she wanted to stay in the palace to investigate, her original plan was not to stay for the reason of being injured as she is now, and she was also left in the emperor's side hall.

She had a hunch that the queen mother would never let it go.

"Your Majesty has lived in the deep palace for a long time. The affairs of the former court are under the control of the regent, and the affairs of the harem are in charge of the empress dowager. When dealing with things by myself, I always care about one thing and lose another, depending on my own temperament.

"The empress dowager is so angry today, if I continue to make friends with your majesty, the empress dowager will definitely kill me."

She just wanted to investigate the truth and didn't want to risk her own life.

After hearing this, Shui Rong continued the previous topic: "Physician He doesn't believe you, what should we do?"

The corner of Cui Hengyue's mouth raised slightly: "Don't worry, he will believe it now."

On the second day, when Imperial Physician He came to check Cui Hengyue's pulse, Shui Rong sent the others away, and she stayed at the place where the inner room and the outer room joined.

"Doctor He—"

Cui Hengyue called softly, showing a kind smile: "I want to have a good talk with you."

Imperial Physician He didn't answer. After checking the pulse, he said expressionlessly, "Young lady has practiced martial arts, and she recovers faster than ordinary people. You can get out of bed tomorrow."

After speaking, he picked up the medicine box and went out.

"Doctor He, it's not easy for me to go out, and it's even more difficult to see you. Are you really not going to talk to me?" Cui Hengyue stopped him.

Take a step.

Alas, what should come will always come.

Imperial Physician He sighed in his heart, turned his head to look at Cui Hengyue, and met her aggrieved almond eyes, his heart softened, and he returned to the bedside with the medicine box.

"What do you want to know?"

Cui Hengyue was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked: "It's still the same question as last time, how does the Queen Mother treat Imperial Doctor Zhen?"

"This." Imperial Physician He put down the medicine box, moved a small chair to sit down, and looked like he wanted to talk in depth: "Actually, Imperial Physician Zhen is very capable, at least he got the position of Imperial Physician Order because of his strength.

"Because he has good medical skills and is humble, the masters in the palace like him very much, and so does the Queen Mother.

"It's just that the Empress Dowager became pregnant later, perhaps because of her heavy body, or perhaps because Concubine Rong died of illness, the late Emperor ignored her in deep grief, and her temper became more and more irritable.

"At that time, I was working in the imperial hospital, and I often heard the news that the queen mother killed the palace people with a stick, but the first emperor didn't care, so the queen mother intensified.

"At that time, Imperial Physician Zhen confided in front of me that the Empress Dowager was not very satisfied with him and seemed to threaten him.

"He also told me that he wanted to leave the palace and leave Jinyang"

Hearing this, Cui Hengyue asked eagerly: "What did the Empress Dowager use to threaten Imperial Physician Zhen?"

Imperial Physician He shook his head: "I don't know, he didn't tell me, and he only mentioned to me once that he wanted to leave the palace, and it was when he was drunk.

"At the time, I thought it was drunk talk and it was unbelievable, so I didn't take it to heart.

"However, after the late emperor passed away, within a few days, the queen mother gave birth to the current majesty, and after that, it was the regent who supported his majesty to ascend the throne.

"But not long after, in the name of Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager reprimanded Imperial Physician Zhen for her lack of medical skills, which killed the late Emperor, and caused the Empress Dowager to bleed profusely during childbirth, and nearly died in Huangquan.

"In short, the Empress Dowager listed many crimes and sentenced Imperial Physician Zhen to be executed.

"Just like that, the imperial doctor Zhen is gone, and the Zhen family is gone. After this incident, everyone in the imperial hospital is in danger, and they are always cautious, not daring to make mistakes."

Cui Hengyue heard the deep meaning, and lowered her voice: "You mean that Imperial Doctor Zhen is not guilty, but the Queen Mother framed him?"

Imperial Physician He neither admitted nor denied it.

Not speaking is the default.

Cui Hengyue couldn't help shivering, what happened to cost the entire Zhen family's life?
