Chapter 172: Not from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty
The next morning, at the palace.
imperial study room
"A bunch of quacks! What use do I have for you!"
Empress Ji Yao reached out and threw the teacup in her hand to the ground, and it shattered with a "pop".
The group of imperial doctors kneeling on the ground were so frightened that they trembled all over, shaking with fear and looking terrified.
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
Empress Ji Yao sat on the dragon throne, her eyes were bloodshot, her eye circles were dark, and her face looked a little haggard, it was obvious that she had not slept well last night because of the incident involving the Crown Princess.
He stared at the group of useless quacks below, his heart burning with anger.
"A bunch of rubbish! If you can't cure the princess, I'll chop off your heads!"
An old imperial physician trembled and said, "Your Majesty, the Crown Princess has been poisoned by two kinds of poisons, one of which is arsenic."
"Arsenic poison is fatal. There has been no antidote since ancient times. I...I am powerless to help."
Ji Yao, who was standing above, had a gloomy expression on his face. He flicked his sleeves and glared at the people below with a sharp gaze.
"What a bunch of rubbish! I don't believe there is anyone in this world who can't cure this poison!"
The imperial doctors were frightened like quails and hung their heads even lower.
At this time, a young imperial physician stepped forward and said.
"Your Majesty, I have heard that the miracle doctor Yan Guzi has excellent medical skills and can bring people back to health. There is no one he cannot cure. Why don't we send someone to invite the miracle doctor to come?"
"Yan Guzi?"
Ji Yao frowned. She had heard of this person before.
only……
Ji Yao frowned and said in a deep voice: "That miracle doctor is not from our Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Do you want me to ask a man for help?"
She has always disliked men other than Dong Zhou.
Let her beg?
impossible!
The young imperial physician Liu Qing bowed politely: "I dare not! But the condition of Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess cannot be delayed." "Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess is now poisoned by two kinds of poisons. Arsenic poison is difficult to cure, and the other unknown poison is even more powerful than arsenic."
"The poison has not yet erupted. I think it is only being suppressed temporarily by the arsenic poison. If we don't find an antidote as soon as possible, the life of Her Highness the Crown Princess may be in danger."
She also knew that His Majesty did not like foreign men, but now the princess was in danger, could human life be less important than face?
Besides, Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess is your Majesty's biological daughter. Is Your Majesty going to disregard Her Royal Highness's life for the sake of a little face?
Unfortunately, she underestimated the extent to which Ji Yao was arrogant and concerned about face.
"Alright, if you want me to ask for a stranger, I will never agree to that."
"I don't believe that in this huge Eastern Zhou Dynasty, there is no one who can detoxify me."
Your Majesty, do you still not intend to invite a miracle doctor?
This made Liu Qing feel heartbroken. Could it be that his own daughter was not worth that little bit of face?
As expected, there is no love in the imperial family.
Even his own daughter can be like this, let alone other people?
Liu Qing was helpless. She had tried to persuade the emperor, but the emperor was too embarrassed to do so, so there was nothing she could do.
"Since Your Majesty is unwilling, why not order a decree to seek medical treatment from the people? Perhaps there will be someone with excellent medical skills who can cure this poison."
Ji Yao frowned when she heard this, but after thinking about it, she realized there was nothing she could do, so she agreed.
"My dear, this is a very good idea. I will do as you wish."
Liu Qing felt relieved when he heard this. It was good that His Majesty agreed.
She was really afraid that His Majesty would not want to seek medical treatment among the people for the sake of face, otherwise she really didn't know what to do.
The empress was furious because the princess was poisoned.
Several old doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau were dismissed, and many guards in the Princess's mansion were also executed because they failed to protect the Princess.
Even during court sessions, the atmosphere was depressing, and court officials were trembling with fear for saying the wrong thing.
For a time, everyone in the palace was in panic.
