The reborn prince can't be pushed down

Chapter 42 Exploring the Cause of Death

Chapter 42 Exploring the Cause of Death
But overnight, all the bright red things were removed and replaced with plain white.

"My condolences to Your Majesty, let the servants change your majesty's clothes and make up!"

A group of court ladies held their clothes and accessories and begged bitterly.

Ning Yuezhao kept embracing the queen, as if she had never heard of it.

The court ladies had no choice but to ask Bitao for help.

Bitao's eyes were red, and her master who had been with her for decades left just like that, and she felt really uncomfortable in her heart, but she couldn't bear to let the empress go away in such an embarrassing way.So, she turned her attention to Jiang Nian.

Jiang Nian also maintained the posture just now, half kneeling beside the empress' body, he took a deep breath, suppressed the soreness in his nose, held Ning Yuezhao's shoulders, and said in a hoarse voice, "Azhao, Don't do that."

Ning Yuezhao turned her head to look at him, showing a stiff smile, "Jiang Nian, the Queen Mother is just asleep, let's not disturb her, shall we?"

Although Jiang Nian couldn't bear it, he had to be ruthless. He winked at Bitao first, then pulled Ning Yuezhao's shoulder forcefully, and said sharply, "Ning Yuezhao, thanks to you, you are still the princess of Daxing. Don't you even dare to face the reality when you shoulder the responsibility of the country?"

Jiang Nian has always given people the impression of being gentle and humble, and it is rare for him to show such a harsh expression.

For a moment, the palace people in the Dragon Palace were photographed by his power, and they were all silent.

Hearing this, Ning Yuezhao loosened her grip on the empress, and she said loudly, "What nonsense are you talking about! Don't curse my empress!"

Angrily, Jiang Nian grabbed her hand and put it under the Queen's nose, "Feel it for yourself!"

Ning Yuezhao withdrew her hand as if scalded by boiling water, her expression had already begun to loosen.

Jiang Nian stood up and looked down at her, with a little coldness in the corners of his eyes and brows, "The heroic soul of the Queen Mother must still be in this palace, let her take a good look, you are the daughter of her life's hard work and hope, at this moment How cowardly and cowardly! You just hug the empress's body and wait for it to cool off slowly!"

Ning Yuezhao's face was gloomy, she bit her lower lip tightly with her white teeth, and said nothing with a sullen face.

Bitao winked at the maids, and went forward to "grab" the empress's body together, and carried it to the apse to tidy up her remains.

Ning Yuezhao just sat on the ground with a sullen face, without saying a word, just staring at the direction of the apse.

Jiang Nian sighed helplessly, stretched out his hand towards her, and said in a harmonious voice, "Get up, it's not proper to sit on the ground."

Ning Yuezhao looked at the white and slender hand in front of her, she patted it, and stood up by herself.

Jiang Nian secretly felt the pain, and frowned, "Are you going to murder your husband?"

But seeing the back of that fair hand turned red, Ning Yuezhao didn't feel distressed at all, and said indifferently: "As the son-in-law of the Daxing Empress Dowager, you can't be so weak that you can die with a slap?"

Jiang Nian raised his eyebrows slightly, it was interesting, he took his words back so quickly to pay him back.

At this time, the palace servants came to preach, "Her Royal Highness, the son-in-law, the imperial physician ordered Gao Sheng to lead a group of people from the imperial hospital to see him."

A hint of hostility instantly condensed between Ning Yuezhao's brows. She hadn't gone to settle accounts with this guy, but he was lucky enough to send it to her door.

"Biography!" Ning Yuezhao said coldly.

Goldman Sachs was still wearing an official uniform at this time, and he seemed to have arrived in a hurry. He also brought several imperial doctors who were in charge of treating the Queen with him, including Fu Liao.

As soon as he stepped into the hall, he saw Ning Yuezhao and Jiang Nian standing side by side in front of the seat where the queen had sat. Gao Sheng knelt down and walked all the way to the two of them, and kowtowed heavily——

"I see Your Royal Highness, Prince Consort, I know that I deserve to die, so I come here to plead guilty!"

The other imperial physicians saw that the Imperial Physician Ling was like this, so they didn't dare to be negligent, and followed the same pattern, walked over on their knees, and kowtowed to confess their crimes.

Only Fu Liao, always calm and composed, walked over slowly, knelt down and saluted, but he didn't say that he was a capital offender.

Ning Yuezhao said with a cold face, "Gao Sheng, didn't you tell Ben Gong before that if you use your prescription, the Queen Mother will get better? Why is it like this now!"

Gao Sheng's forehead was pressed against the cold ground, cold sweat flowed out, and the floor was wet. He cried out in pain: "I... I don't know, but at that time, His Majesty sent Fu Yuyi to see the prescription, and Fu Yuyi also said There is nothing wrong with this recipe!"

When Gao Sheng heard the news of the Queen's death, he knew that Ning Yuezhao would definitely not let him go this time, so he hurried over to apologize first.He purposely called Fu Liao along, just hoping that he could make some clarifications for himself, because Ning Yuezhao seemed to trust this person quite a bit in the past, and he had a very close relationship with his son-in-law, Jiang Nian.

Of course, another reason is that Goldman Sachs himself is very guilty about that prescription.

Ning Yuezhao shifted her gaze to Fu Liao, "Fu Liao, you also told me that this prescription is not a medicine for tigers and wolves."

"Yes." Fu Liao knelt straight, with a frank expression, "But I also said that this prescription can't cure the queen's illness."

"You told me earlier that if the Queen takes good care of you, you can still live for several months. Now it's less than a month since your last diagnosis and treatment!"

"Yes, but the premise is that His Majesty can recuperate in peace." Fu Liao glanced at Jiang Nian, but he didn't say anything after all.

But just these few words are enough to reduce Ning Yuezhao's momentum by half.

Jiang Nian lightly supported her by the shoulders, and looked at Fu Liao, "However, just a few days before the wedding, His Majesty's condition has indeed improved a lot, so why?"

Fu Liao shook his head, with a bit of helplessness in his tone, "I think that your Majesty's sudden improvement is just because he is concerned about the princess's marriage, and his wish has not been fulfilled, and it is because of his return to light."

As soon as he said this, everyone reacted differently.

Ning Yuezhao was startled, she pursed her lips and remained silent.Jiang Nian patted her on the shoulder, silently comforting her.

Gao Sheng, who had been kneeling on the ground, heaved a long sigh of relief, and it was indeed right to bring Fu Liao along.

But before he secretly wiped the sweat off his forehead, Fu Liao's voice sounded again.

"Your Highness, I have a question to ask Lord Gao."

Ning Yuezhao's thoughts were in a mess at the moment, and she agreed without thinking, "Ask."

"Thank you, Princess." Fu Liao bowed to her, and turned to Gao Sheng, "Master Gao, you said that you came up with that prescription yourself, right?"

Goldman Sachs raised his head, straightened his body, and said arrogantly: "Yes."

Because Ning Yuezhao didn't let him get up, he could only keep kneeling.Fu Liao knelt behind him, and now he had to turn around to answer Fu Liao's question.Kneeling to face his subordinates made Goldman Sachs feel very ashamed, even though his subordinates were also kneeling, so he could only put on a high profile to regain his sense of superiority.

Fu Liao didn't respond to his expression, and just asked indifferently: "In the past few days, I have been sorting out the diaries of imperial physicians in the past, and I happened to come across a prescription, which is very similar to yours. I don't know if you What do you think?"

Faced with Fu Liao's calm attitude, Goldman Sachs was a little annoyed, "What do you mean by very similar, and how similar are they?"

Fu Liao still spoke in a neutral tone, "That prescription was originally a medicine for violent tigers and wolves, but your prescription has eliminated a few poisonous medicines, and instead became a warming and tonic prescription."

Just now seeing Fu Liao smoothing out Ning Yuezhao's interrogation, Gao Sheng let go of most of the big stones in his heart.Hearing now that the prescription was actually improved from the tiger and wolf medicine, I was even more overjoyed.

So, he raised his head and became even more proud, "When I read the notes and studied, I also saw the prescription of tiger and wolf. Later, because of your majesty's illness, I found that the prescription was not completely useless, and it can be improved a little. It has become a good prescription for curing diseases and saving people. With the heart of hanging the pot to help the world, I have exhausted my mind, read countless medical books, and spent a lot of effort to come up with the current prescription."

After listening to his words calmly, Fu Liao said, "My lord is smart, but my subordinates are stupid. I can't remember which herbs need to be replaced. Please give me your advice."

As soon as he said this, Goldman Sachs was fooled.It would not be a problem for him to recite the prescription, but how could he know which herbs were replaced!
At this time, Ning Yuezhao's mood had calmed down a bit.Jiang Nian has been observing Goldman Sachs' reaction, taking a panoramic view of his small movements.

"This..." Goldman stammered, unable to name a complete medicine for a long time, and the cold sweat continued to break out on his forehead.

"Goldman Sachs." Ning Yuezhao said coldly, "I am also very curious about what medicinal materials you have changed, let me tell you."

Goldman turned back bravely, and said in a trembling voice, "It's aconitum... Poppy... and..."

"What else?" Ning Yuezhao's voice became cold again.

Goldman Sachs felt that there was a sharp sword hanging over his head, so he had to pick a few poisonous medicinal materials at random to talk about it, thinking that a blind cat would kill a mouse.

Ning Yuezhao looked at Fu Liao, "Is that so?"

Fu Liao didn't speak, just took out a stack of papers from his sleeve, and raised his hands above his head.

The palace man stepped forward to take the stack of papers and handed them to Ning Yuezhao respectfully.

Ning Yuezhao took it and flipped through a few pages before passing it on to Jiang Nian.

After Jiang Nian finished reading, he smiled and raised the stack of papers, "Doctor Gao, what you said is not even in the original prescription. How did you improve it?"

Goldman Sachs looked ashamed, knowing that this time there was no way to recover, so he had to be honest, "Princess, please forgive me, this prescription is indeed not thought up by me, but please see that I am only thinking about your majesty's illness, so please don't worry about it." Pass me this time!"

After finishing speaking, Goldman Sachs kowtowed one after another, his voice booming.It didn't take long for a bloodstain to appear on the ground, but Goldman Sachs didn't dare to stop at all.

It never occurred to him that in the end he fell down not because there was a problem with the prescription, but because the prescription was too perfect.

"Okay, stop knocking." Ning Yuezhao said impatiently, "Who improved that prescription?"

Goldman Sachs' forehead was broken. As soon as he raised his head, blood dripped down his face, which looked horrific.

He endured the pain and said: "It's An Chen, this prescription was picked up by the guilty minister in the room where he was recuperating."

Ning Yuezhao was stunned when she heard the words.
