Chapter 38
Originally, if you want to give death, you can choose poisonous wine, white silk, scissors, and dagger.Because if you die like this, you can still keep the whole body.

But ordering to be beheaded means to cut off the head and separate the body from the body. This is what would be done to a person who has committed a heinous crime.

Everyone knows that Shangguan's imperial physician was wronged, but so what?Most of the people in this palace who die wrongly every year account for most of them.

Wen Yi couldn't care less about going to see Song Yunqian.The emperor wanted to kill Shangguan's imperial physician to remind her of how she died.She operated on a patient, and the patient died. The patient's father took revenge on her and stabbed her.The biggest tragedy of being a doctor is that doctors themselves are not gods, they are not omnipotent, but all patients hope to have the art of recovery.You must know that life and death, illness and injury are inevitable for everyone. In the eyes of patients, the existence of doctors is either to save lives or to complain and blame.

If it is said that the Taiyuan Hospital is the death of a rabbit and the sorrow of a fox, then Wen Yi is the same kind.Like Shangguan's imperial physician, she was sentenced to death by the patient's family because she could not save the patient.This was also the reason why Wen Yi was so eager to plead for Shangguan's imperial doctor.

She first went to the imperial hospital, got the prescription prescribed by Shangguan's imperial physician that day, and asked the court judge, who said the prescription was correct, and when she heard that Wen Yi was going to run for Shangguan's imperial physician, the court judge immediately sent herself to The love letter written by Long Fei was handed over to Wen Yi, who asked her to submit it to the emperor.

Now, it is only half an hour before noon.

Wen Yi didn't know where the emperor was, so she asked a few court ladies, but they all said they didn't know. She led the nanny and Xiaoju to walk anxiously in the palace, asking around whenever she saw anyone, but she didn't know where the emperor was in the imperial study. He was still in his bedroom, of course, he might have gone to the Empress Dowager's palace, or went to see Song Yunqian, or other possibilities.

Wen Yi turned around for a while, stomped her feet and said, "Don't look for it anymore, let's go to the Meridian Gate!"

The Meridian Gate is the main entrance of the imperial palace. When officials go to court, they must first wait at the Meridian Gate.

Wen Yi ran swiftly, leaving Nanny and Xiao Ju behind. She didn't know why she didn't feel any pain even though she had a foot injury, as if her pain-sensing nerves had been destroyed.

The Meridian Gate is very large, and there are two small doors on the left and one on the right. It is said to be a small door, but it is not really small, but it is slightly smaller than the main entrance.

In the open space of the Meridian Gate, several people were already standing, without a watch, she didn't know if it was past three o'clock in the afternoon.

I just saw that there was no blood on the open ground, and I felt at ease, it should not have arrived yet.

No, just thinking about it, she heard footsteps behind her. She hurriedly turned her head and saw two guards escorting a middle-aged man with disheveled hair and torn clothes. The iron chain was almost half-dragged out.He didn't wear shoes, and his feet were stained with blood. He must have been forcibly dragged here along the way.

Wen Yi hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, and asked, "Shangguan imperial physician?"

Shangguan's imperial doctor raised his dull eyes and looked at Wen Yi. He had seen Wen Yi once before, on the day when Princess Zhenyuan was in labor.He was a little stunned, "Princess?"

The jailer didn't recognize Wen Yi, but when he heard Shangguan's imperial physician calling him this, he couldn't help but look sideways, and said respectfully and solemnly: "Princess, please don't stop the lowly officials from carrying out the imperial edict!"

The autumn sun shines directly overhead, noon is coming.Wen Yi ran all the way over, with fine beads of sweat on her forehead, shining under the sunlight, she said quickly: "He is innocent, he cannot be chopped off!"

The jailer frowned, and said: "Princess, my humble duty is to follow the imperial decree of the emperor to escort the prisoner to Caishikou."

"Caishikou? Isn't it here?" Wen Yi was taken aback, beheaded at the Meridian Gate, wasn't he beheaded at the Meridian Gate?

The jailer laughed and said: "This is the Meridian Gate, a solemn and sacred place. How could it be possible to kill criminals here? It is almost noon, and at three o'clock in the afternoon, the criminals must be killed. This is the emperor's decree. Please don't embarrass the concubine." !"

It turned out to be three quarters in the afternoon, Wen Yi secretly rejoiced in her heart, fortunately she came here to stop her.She didn't have time to study whether the beheading at the Meridian Gate was to be executed at the Meridian Gate, or whether the prisoner was to be escorted out of the Caishikou through the Meridian Gate. She just wanted to prevent this tragedy.

Since the person was intercepted by her here, naturally he couldn't let him go easily.

Wen Yi looked up at the jailer, and said, "People are wronged, I can't let you take him away."

The jailer said embarrassingly: "If you are wronged or not, it has nothing to do with the humble position. The humble position is just following orders. If the princess thinks he is wronged, she can go to the emperor."

Wen Yi said: "I will go to find my father, please, give me some time, and suspend the execution!"

The jailer shook his head, "Well, unless it's under the emperor's imperial order, otherwise, a humble official dare not delay the execution time."

Wen Yi became anxious, and said: "It's human life after all, how can you be so cruel?"

The jailer raised his head and said sternly: "Princess, if you act against the order, those who die at that time will be low-ranking."

The Shangguan imperial doctor looked up at Wen Yi, and said gratefully: "The princess is willing to run for my minister, I believe that this minister is innocent, I am already grateful, the two of them are also following orders, the princess does not need to embarrass them, just ask After Weichen's death, the princess can justify the name of Weichen, don't implicate Weichen's family, then Weichen will be grateful to Wangfei even if he is under the nine springs."

Wen Yi shook her head, "No, I can't just watch you die unjustly." Wen felt that the jailer would not give in, and was a little anxious. Thinking of the old-fashioned plots in TV dramas, she yanked off her hairpin and stood against it. With his own neck, he threatened: "If you dare to take the official doctor away, then I will die here. At that time, you will also be unable to do business!"

She used to think that this method of self-injury was stupid, but it turns out that people can do such stupid behaviors when they have no other way.

It's stupid, but it works.

The jailers were stunned, looking at each other.

Several guards came over, they should be the guards responsible for escorting Shangguan's imperial doctor to Caishikou, stepped forward to inquire about the situation, one of them pondered for a while, and said: "You go and report to the emperor immediately, please come here."

One of the guards responded and turned away.

Wen Yi was in a stalemate under the sun like this, she didn't dare to let go of the hairpin, for fear that the guards would come and take her hairpin away.Although I haven't seen them perform martial arts, but I also know that it is not easy for them to work as errands in the palace.

She maintained a posture and waited for half an hour before seeing the guards who had just gone to receive the order come back in a hurry.

Accompanying him is Prince Zhenyuan.

Seeing Wen Yi, Lord Zhenyuan quickly shouted: "Luo Yi, put down the hairpin."

When Wen saw him, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "My lord, you came just in time. I have seen the prescription given to An Ran by Shangguan's doctor, and the medicine is not too heavy."

Lord Zhenyuan took a look at Shangguan's imperial physician and said, "However, it is true that An Ran's condition got worse because of taking the medicine he prescribed."

Wen Yi explained: "Even if he didn't take the prescription he prescribed, An Ran's illness would get worse day by day. He was born with a disease. Fortunately, he had the prescription from the Shangguan imperial physician, so he could save his life." The prescription prescribed by the Shangguan imperial physician , are all conservative anti-jaundice prescriptions, suitable for general jaundice, so, as far as the prescription is concerned, he has no fault.Moreover, fortunately, the prescription he prescribed could stabilize the condition, and the condition was getting worse day by day. There were many factors, and it had nothing to do with the prescription.

Hearing the words, Prince Zhenyuan pondered for a while, and said in a bit of embarrassment: "However, once the golden mouth is opened, the royal father's imperial decree will be overwhelmed!"

Wen thought that Prince Zhenyuan said the same thing, and immediately became anxious, and said: "My lord, after all, it's human life, and the Shangguan imperial doctor also has family members. If he has an accident, how can his family be worried? Besides, if he deserves what he deserves, I will I don't care about it, but I know he is innocent. If I ignore him, it will mean that I killed him in disguise. I'm afraid I will live in guilt for the rest of my life. My lord, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda, please. Lord, think twice."

Prince Zhenyuan was a little touched. To be honest, the lives of others are really not important to him.But a word of heart-to-heart made Prince Zhenyuan's heart startled.Of course, we also have to talk about the timing. If he had told Lord Zhenyuan like this before, he might not have taken it to heart, and he might not have felt the same way.Now that he had experienced the shock of almost losing his beloved, and the life and death of his son was uncertain, Wen Yi's words entered his heart.

Wen saw that his expression was calm, so he added another sentence, saying: "Now that An Ran has not passed the danger period, it is really inappropriate to increase the number of killings at this time."

Prince Zhenyuan raised his head and said: "Okay, this king will go with you to see the emperor to ask for orders!"

Wen Yi's expression relaxed, and his heart sank. It would be better if he was willing to ask the emperor with him.She knew that she was a soft-spoken person, and the emperor might not believe what she said, especially since the emperor had already opened his mouth, it would be very difficult for him to withdraw his life.But with Prince Zhenyuan accompanying him as a lobbyist, the situation is quite different.

The prince of Zhenyuan ordered the guards to suspend the execution first, and he led Wen Yi to the imperial study to find the emperor.

Before coming to the imperial study, the prince of Zhenyuan said to Wen Yi cautiously: "The flood in northern Hunan and the drought in southern Hunan have caused my father a headache. He has been discussing disaster relief with ministers in the imperial study for the past few days. Listen to the servants in front of you." Someone came to report that the emperor is not in a good mood these days, you don't want to talk for a while, this king asks you, you can answer."

Wen Yi was grateful in her heart, raised her eyes and said: "Yes, everything is up to the prince!"

Lord Zhenyuan nodded his head slightly, and sighed, "I really misjudged you in the past, thinking you..." Lord Zhenyuan didn't continue after all, but his expression was a little relieved, as if comforted in his heart.

Wen Yi's eyes were shining, and although she didn't understand what he said, she could tell that he had no doubts about her personality.

When he came to the imperial study room, Prince Zhenyuan ordered someone to go in and report. Zhong, the chief waiter in front of the imperial court, came out of the imperial study room and said softly: "Today, the disaster area came to report that there was an epidemic, and the emperor already knew that you stopped the criminal. Now In the midst of fury, the prince speaks cautiously."

Prince Zhenyuan said: "Thank you for reminding me, Eunuch."

Zhong Zheng sighed, "The situation in the disaster area is not stable for a day, and the emperor's heart is restless. My lord, if the emperor's attitude is tough, it is better not to force it, and self-preservation is the first priority."

Wen Yi's heart was shocked, she frowned and stared at Zhong Zheng with a troubled face, knowing that this trip was not optimistic.
