Chapter 696: Recognize people

 

Gu Daren waved his hand: “It’s just a little effort. However, Houye, you look like this, I’m afraid you won’t be able to finish the banquet. You still have to offer a toast to the emperor and the other princes later on. Can you do it?”

Pei Qinghan also wants to know if he can do it, but he’s afraid it can’t!

He took a glance at Dongfang Mu, who was sitting on the upper right of the emperor, and he gritted his teeth. This old man’s heart was poisonous, he must have given him medicine. He was so cruel that he almost lost his life.

After watching two dancing shows and a round of toasting, the empress dowager felt tired. She said goodbye to the emperor and got up to leave.

However, as soon as she stood up, she felt her surrounding was circling and there seemed to be countless little stars jumping in front of her eyes. She opened her mouth, but she couldn’t make a sound and then fell.

Fortunately, the palace maid beside her kept holding her hand. Realizing something was wrong, the palace maid immediately pulled her up.

 

The emperor’s voice sounded through the hall: “Hurry up, call the imperial doctor, quickly.”

 

the imperial doctor.”

Imperial Doctor Xu, the head doctor of the Imperial Hospital, had been drinking in the hall. When he saw this, he rushed over and said: “Hurry up, don’t shake the empress dowager. Slowly put her down on the floor.”

After all, he was an imperial doctor, he had seen more patients than ordinary doctors. The empress dowager was very old. She drank a few more cups of wine in enjoyment. Now, she seemed suddenly had a stroke.

He was very flustered. If it was another disease, he could figure out what to do, but he couldn’t do anything against stroke.

However, he doesn’t dare to say this to the emperor. He could only try a few interventions to the empress dowager, but it didn’t work at all. Then, the emperor’s voice entered his ears.

“What happened to the Empress Dowager? Why she didn’t react at all?”

Imperial Doctor Xu busily kowtowed and said: “This minister is incompetent. The empress dowager is showing symptoms of a stroke. This stroke is incurable, this minister is incompetent!”

 

Stroke, even if you don’t die, you will become paralyzed… …

The emperor was furious: “You are the head of the imperial hospital, but you are saying that you are incompetent? Why am I keeping you?”

 

Hu Feng busily said: “Imperial Father, I know someone, she may be able to cure this disease.”

The emperor hurriedly asked: “Who is it? Where is that person?”

Dongfang Mu said: “She is in Dongfang Family Mansion, I will pick her up now.”

The emperor waved his hand: “Go quick.”

 

The original joyous atmosphere suddenly became condensed and heavy.

The empress dowager can’t move around at will. She could only stay at the same place and wait for the doctor to come to be treated. The emperor didn’t dismiss people, so the ministers could only stay, no matter how late the time is.

An hour later, Bai Zhi was picked up by Dongfang Mu from Dongfang Family Mansion. Because of the urgency, she went into the hall wearing a woman’s clothing.

 

She followed behind Dongfang Mu and walked among the officials. Everyone’s eyes were attracted to her, which also cause a lot of gossips.

“She is the doctor Prince Jin said?”

“A little girl can cure a disease that the head of the imperial hospital can’t cure?”

“Don’t you think she looks like Master Dongfang a bit? Especially those eyes of her, they are look alike.”

Amidst such discussions, she walked passed by Pei Qinghan. Although Pei Qinghan was dizzy, he still could see her face very clearly.

This, this face, isn’t this the young man he saw in the Yamen that day? Why did he suddenly become a young lady?

 

No, this is impossible, this is impossible.

Suddenly, the midwife’s words echoed in his ears like thunder: “It’s a girl, her eyes look like the madam, but her nose and mouth look like yours. That was my first time to see such a beautiful baby girl.”
