Chapter 247 Treating the Queen Mother

However, considering the Empress Dowager's illness, if she is not treated with the right medicine, she will probably pass away in a few days.

If the imperial doctors fail to treat the patient properly, everyone present here will be held responsible for the Empress Dowager's death. He and Wu Chen are in charge of the entire Imperial Hospital, which is an even greater crime. Dismissal from their official positions would be the least of their crimes.

At this time, the imperial doctors kneeling on the ground also thought of this. Cold sweat broke out on their foreheads. They all knew in their hearts that they could not find the cause of the Empress Dowager's illness. If they did not prescribe the right medicine, it might have deteriorated to an irreversible point. By then, even the Golden Immortal would be unable to save the situation.

If the Empress Dowager really died because of this, they, the imperial doctors, and even everyone present, would face unpredictable and severe punishment.

Just when everyone was extremely anxious but at a loss of what to do, suddenly, a clear voice broke the heavy atmosphere: "Your Majesty, perhaps Imperial Physician Xu and Imperial Physician Bai can give it a try."

The Queen hesitated for a long time, but finally made this suggestion.

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room was shocked. Imperial Physician Xu and Imperial Physician Bai? Although these two had a certain reputation in the Imperial Hospital, they were still relatively inexperienced compared to the imperial physicians present. More importantly, they had not participated in the diagnosis and treatment of the Empress Dowager's illness in the past few days. How could they find a solution in such a short time?

However, the words of the Empress were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, stirring up ripples. The Emperor frowned, he understood what the Empress meant, but he also had doubts about whether these two young imperial doctors were qualified for the task.

"Empress, Imperial Physician Xu and Imperial Physician Bai are still inexperienced. I..." Before the emperor could finish his words, he was interrupted by the Empress:

"Your Majesty, I know what you are worried about. But the situation is urgent and we have no other choice. Moreover, although Imperial Physician Xu and Imperial Physician Bai are young, their medical skills are very advanced.

I myself feel the same way. Secondly, Dr. Xu has cured difficult and complicated diseases that other doctors and doctors cannot. Perhaps they can really find a way to treat my mother."

When Wu Chen and the other imperial doctors heard that Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan were going to see the Empress Dowager, their faces changed slightly. They were afraid that they would be helpless and unable to cure the Empress Dowager, which would anger the Emperor, and that would affect the layout of their Rejuvenation Clinic.

.........

"Master, Doctor Bai, you are here. The Empress just sent a palace maid to tell Master and Doctor Bai to go to the Cining Palace to treat the Empress Dowager." Before Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan entered the palace, they saw Chen Xiu pacing back and forth anxiously at the door. When he saw Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan, he ran up to them as if he had seen a savior, and said hastily.

"Don't be anxious, speak slowly. Is the Empress Dowager sick? What is wrong with her? Have the imperial doctors in the Imperial Hospital visited her?" Xu Qingyi patted Chen Xiu's back gently and asked her to speak slowly.

"I don't know what the specific illness is. I only know that the Empress Dowager fell ill three days ago and had abdominal pain. Lord Wu, Lord Cui, Zhou Yuanshi, Lin Youpan and other imperial doctors went to see the Empress Dowager, but they couldn't cure her. It seems to be getting worse.

Lord Wu, the Emperor, and the Empress are all in the Cining Palace now, waiting for Master and Doctor Bai to go and treat the Empress Dowager." Chen Xiu cut to the chase and told Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan the specific situation in the Cining Palace.

"This time we are going to see the Empress Dowager, the Emperor and the Empress are here. You can follow Bai Yan and I to see the Empress Dowager, this is a great opportunity to show off.

There is also a chance to gain merit and perhaps be granted an official position by the Emperor, provided that Bai Yan and I can cure the Empress Dowager's illness.

If you fail to cure the Empress Dowager's illness, you will most likely be punished by the Emperor if you follow Bai Yan and I to the Cining Palace to treat the Empress Dowager.

Now it depends on how you choose. "After Xu Qingyi glanced at Chen Xiu, her tone was full of seriousness and expectation.

"Master, I am willing to go with you." Chen Xiu did not hesitate. Her eyes were firm, as if she was ready to face all the consequences.

"Okay, since you are willing, let's go to the Cining Palace together.

In addition, you go to the Imperial Hospital and tell Lin Yuan, Xu Ming, and Wang Jie the pros and cons. If they are willing to go with us to the Cining Palace to see the Empress Dowager, let them wait in front of the Cining Palace and go with us. "Xu Qingyi said, and walked towards the Cining Palace with Bai Yan.

As for Chen Xiu, she trotted towards the Imperial Hospital to inform Lin Yuan and the other two.

Quarter of an hour later, Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan, together with their two apprentices, met at the Cining Palace and headed towards it.

Entering the Cining Palace, the atmosphere inside the palace is solemn and dignified.

There were imperial doctors kneeling on the ground in the hall, their faces full of anxiety and uneasiness, and they couldn't even breathe. Emperor Rui'an sat in the main seat with a gloomy face, and the atmosphere in the whole hall was extremely depressing.

"Your humble servant greets His Majesty the Emperor and the Empress."?2.

"Imperial Physician Xu, Imperial Physician Bai, you are aware that our mother is unwell. Today, use your skills to treat her properly.

If you can cure it, I will reward you handsomely, and you will be promoted to a higher position. If you can't cure it, you can come to me with your heads." Emperor Rui'an said in a deep voice.

Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan were shocked when they heard this, and said in unison: "We will obey your order and do our best to treat the Empress Dowager."

Afterwards, Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan did not stay in the hall for too long. The palace maids serving the Empress Dowager took Xu and the others directly to the Empress Dowager's bedroom.

The palace gate was gently pushed open, and a faint smell of medicine wafted into the air.

"Greetings to the Empress Dowager." Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan led their disciples to pay their respects.

"Get up." The Queen Mother's voice was a little weak, but still majestic. She was lying on the bed, her face was pale and she looked very weak.

I don’t know if it was because of the pain in her abdomen, but the Empress Dowager frowned and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

Curled up on the bed, hunched over, it seemed that this would make her feel much more comfortable.

Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan looked at each other, and they both knew that the Queen Mother's condition was serious. They quickly stepped forward, one on the left and one on the right, and began to feel the Queen Mother's pulse.

Xu Qingyi's fingers gently rested on the Queen Mother's wrist, and she closed her eyes and concentrated, feeling the beating of her pulse. Her brows were furrowed, as if she was thinking about something. Bai Yan carefully observed the Queen Mother's complexion and asked her about some symptoms.
