Chapter 287 Chapter 286 Promotion
In the past few days, as Lin Youyi's health gradually improved, Fan Wenhui's preparations were also in place.

However, Lin Youyi was in a state of panic because Li Duanjin had not written to her for several days, which had never happened before. The message she asked Xing Zhao to pass on through the secret guards also fell on deaf ears, which meant that she had lost contact with Li Duanjin, and she was a little worried.

In addition, Huo Yuyin's words that night made her feel vaguely that her master must have a lot more to say, and it must be related to Li Duanjin.

At this time, Ping'er informed Dean Fan and Mrs. Huo that she wanted to see him.

I think she was asked to go for treatment.

"Please let Mrs. Huo come in alone, and you guys leave first." Lin Youyi wanted to talk to Huo Yuyin alone.

After a while, Huo Yuyin came to Lin Youyi, and Lin Youyi asked directly, "May I ask if the Grand Princess has any news about His Majesty?"

The title of "Grand Princess" made Huo Yuyin stunned for a moment. This showed that her disciple was angry. Also, it was normal for her to have such a reaction since she asked her to leave her husband.

Speaking of His Majesty, Huo Yuyin frowned. This was exactly the reason why she and Dean Fan had discussed moving the treatment forward to today. There had been no news from the imperial city for several days, and she vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

"You don't have any news from His Majesty either." Huo Yuyin asked back, but her tone was affirmative, which meant that not only was something wrong in the imperial city, but the situation was already very tricky.

Her brows were deeply furrowed.

"The Grand Princess doesn't want me to threaten His Majesty. I can promise that I will never let His Majesty face such a situation. But before that, I hope to cooperate with you." Lin Youyi stated her purpose.

Huo Yuyin thought for a moment and did not answer immediately. Instead, she said, "We will talk again after your Highness survives today."

Lin Youyi knew that today's treatment was very risky. Fan Wenhui had already warned her of the challenges she would face, and also said frankly that this method was being used for the first time, and it was unclear whether it would be successful.

It is understandable that Huo Yuyin wants to confirm her condition first.

royal palace.

Your Majesty had just arrived at the court today when he suddenly fell ill and the morning court was cancelled, which caused discussion among the civil and military officials, and they all waited in the Xuanzheng Hall to see how Your Majesty was doing.

When the Queen Mother heard the news, she came to Xuanzheng Hall and scolded Doctor He, "How have you been serving His Majesty? His Majesty hasn't recovered in a few days? Summon all the doctors from the Imperial Hospital."

The imperial physicians diagnosed the disease as wind disease one by one, and all prescribed tranquilizing medicines.

The Queen Mother scolded them angrily: "What a bunch of rubbish! If it were that simple, how could it always be bad?"

The imperial doctors looked at each other, nodded in agreement, and dared not say a word.

The Queen Mother said angrily, "Since you can't cure it, please post a notice and ask the extraordinary people outside the palace to come and treat Your Majesty."

Li Duanjin's headache was relieved at this time, and he shouted, "Water."

Anduo immediately poured some water for Li Duanjin to drink, and then wiped the sweat off Li Duanjin's face with a handkerchief.

The Queen Mother walked over to the bed and asked with concern, "Is the prince feeling better?"

Li Duanjin looked as if he had suffered a serious illness. "I'm sorry to have made my mother worry." His voice was soft and weak, and his face was pale.

"My son, you have worked hard. A heavy burden has been placed on your shoulders, which is why you have contracted these colds. You must take good care of yourself," said the Queen Mother.

"Don't worry, mother. The child will be fine." Li Duanjin comforted.

"The ministers have been frightened by you and are still waiting outside the Xuanzheng Hall. Now that the prince is better, let them go back," the empress dowager reminded.

Li Duanjin looked at Anduo and ordered, "Let them go and tell them that I am fine."

After the Queen Mother and the civil and military officials left, An Duo looked at Li Duanjin with great distress and advised: "Your Majesty, why don't we try another method? If we continue like this, it may harm the emperor's body."

Li Duanjin waved his hand, "You can't get a tiger cub without risking it. You go down first." After Anduo left, Li Duanjin called Xiao Duo over, "How is the investigation going?"

"The secret guards of Cining Palace are guarding Censor Su's residence. I didn't go deeper into the house for fear of alerting the enemy." Xiao Duo reported back.

"Su Mansion?" Li Duanjin pondered. What is the connection between Su Bushan and the Queen Mother?
Unexpectedly, Li Duanjin asked again, "How is the Queen?"

"According to His Majesty's request, we have cut off all contact with the Empress, and have ordered people to strengthen her protection. According to the progress, it is estimated that the Empress will begin treatment in the next one or two days."

Li Duanjin originally wanted to arrange state affairs and rush there while Lin Youyi was receiving treatment, but given the current situation, he couldn't leave.

"Your Majesty...is quite worried about His Majesty." Xiao Duo said carefully.

Li Duanjin waved his hand, signaling Xiao Duo to leave.

Then he stood up, took out the letters from Lin Youyi from the box, and read them one by one over and over again.

He missed her and was worried about her, but now was a special period and the enemy dared to touch even him, let alone his weak point, Lin Youyi.

Only by being sick and appearing unable to care about anyone could he make the enemy let down their guard.

"Jinxi, you must be well and wait for me!"

Cining Palace.

The Queen Mother came to a dark secret room. In the depths of the room, a man was tied up. It was Su Bushan.

The Queen Mother walked at a leisurely pace, her voice somewhat proud, "I have some new news for Su Qing. His Majesty has suffered from migraine and has cancelled the morning court session."

Su Bushan raised his head and looked at the Queen Mother suspiciously, "Did you attack His Majesty?"

"My dear Su, please be careful with what you say if you don't have any evidence." The Queen Mother returned the words "be careful with what you say" to Su Bushan.

Although the Queen Mother did not admit it, Su Buzhan knew that it was related to her. When he thought of the Queen Mother's betrayal of the government, he was furious. "Has the Queen Mother ever thought about the people of the world when she acted like this? Even if it is for His Highness Myanmar, he will not accept a position that was not obtained legitimately."

"This is not a problem you should worry about. You still owe me an answer." The Queen Mother asked about the choice she gave Su Buzhan that day, "Would you like to assist the new king and become a high-ranking official, or would you rather die without a trace and have your entire family wiped out?"

"You won't succeed." Su Bushan said firmly.

The queen mother's face darkened. "If you don't accept my toast, I'll punish you." She flicked her sleeves and ordered, "Come here, punish me."

A group of palace servants came in carrying basins and trays with square pieces of paper on the trays. One look at the situation and it was clear that they were going to use the punishment of "promotion to a higher position".

Wet straw paper and cover the person's face with it. As layer after layer of paper is added, the person will feel difficulty breathing and eventually suffocate to death.

"In gratitude for your care for the eldest prince, I will grant you a gentle death." The Queen Mother turned around, "Of course, if you change your mind, they will stop at any time."

Life and death all depend on his thoughts.

With the departure of the Queen Mother, the door closed tightly along with all the light, as if taking away all of Su Bushan's hopes.

What a pity, I didn’t have the chance to tell Your Majesty about the Queen Mother’s evil ambitions.

There was no time to remind His Majesty to take precautions.

There was no time to settle his wife and the Su family.

There was no time to give Meng'er any more instructions.
