Chapter 215 We are all men, how can I not understand you?
Ningyue came to the tightly closed palace gate and knocked hard on it: "Someone come! The Imperial Concubine is seriously ill and needs to summon the imperial physician urgently!"
She knocked on the door and banged on it, but the guards at the door remained indifferent!
A new emperor appoints new ministers. At this moment, Ningyue felt more clearly how different things were after the imperial concubine lost power.
But she didn't give up. She gritted her teeth and continued to beat:
"The Emperor only confined the Imperial Concubine to her house, and did not leave her to fend for herself. If anything happens to the Imperial Concubine, can you afford the consequences?!"
Her voice was shrill, carrying the accusations of collapse, and the tightly closed door finally slowly opened a crack.
"No noise."
The guard had a stern face, and it seemed difficult to talk to him. Ningyue had originally planned to plead for mercy, but now, she changed her mind.
"The Imperial Concubine is seriously ill. If the Imperial Physician doesn't come, her life will be in danger! I am the Imperial Concubine's personal maid, and I will have to die to pay for my crime. May I ask, Sir Guard, do you want to do the same as me and pay with your life?"
In order to confine the imperial concubine, the imperial guards dispatched to guard her were all from Fenglinwei.
As luck would have it, this team's immediate superior is the Marquis of Changning, Lu Jing, who has just returned from his injury!
"Wait a minute." The guard did not dare to make a decision on his own. As Ningyue said, the imperial concubine was a legitimate master after all.
Although she has been sentenced to house arrest now, she was so favored before. Does the emperor really dislike her?
If something really happened, it would be something that a mere guard like him would not be able to handle!
Although Lu Jing's injury has healed, he still cannot make big movements or lift heavy objects.
Therefore, the emperor sympathized with him and allowed him to sit on duty, demonstrating the emperor's tolerance towards him.
After hearing about this, Lu Jing pondered for a while, "Is the queen really sick or faking it?"
It was not that he wanted to judge others by his own standards, it was just that the timing of Concubine Lin's illness was too ingenious.
Now, all the members of the Lin family, except Concubine Lin, have been imprisoned and will be sentenced later.
She asked the imperial physician for help at this time, who knows whether it is true or not?
What if he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to do something weird, then wouldn't he be charged with dereliction of duty?
"Your Excellency, I did not see the Imperial Concubine. The palace maid was very emotional and seemed to be really anxious. It didn't seem like she was acting."
"This..." Lu Jing hesitated.
If it was false, then his insistence on his position was nothing but inhumane, but on the surface, there was nothing wrong with him.
But if it is true, if something really happens to the imperial concubine in the future and the emperor holds her accountable... I'm afraid he won't be able to bear the consequences.
Lu Jing thinks that he has a bright future now, and he doesn't want to take any risk at all.
"Since the Imperial Concubine is ill, it is reasonable to ask the Imperial Physician to treat her."
Lu Jing still relaxed. As a man, he felt that he could still understand the emperor's psychology.
The current Concubine Lin treats the emperor like Fang Rou treated him back then.
Although he really wanted to marry Fang Rou, he also wanted to give her and the child a legitimate status.
But on his left was his grandmother, and on his right was Shen Ruoyan. He was stuck in the middle, feeling torn.
This feeling of not being able to do what you want will be remembered for a lifetime!
Isn’t it the same for the Emperor now?
If those rebels had not caused so much trouble, even if Li Qingzheng's case was overturned, would the Lin family have ended up like this?
Obviously, no.
Because Concubine Lin is his beloved woman, even for Concubine Lin's sake, the emperor will be lenient with the Lin family -
The emperor is now dealing with the Lin family because he is forced into it and has no choice!
Even if the Lin family really fell into decline, the emperor would always remember this incident and these people in his heart.
When he has time to spare, there is no guarantee that he will not be held accountable later.
At that time, if something happened to Concubine Lin because of me, what would happen? !
"Let her go and get the imperial physician, and have someone accompany her the entire time. That way she won't be able to find fault with us."
The biggest worry about house arrest is that someone might escape.
As long as no one runs away from Concubine Lin's palace, it is not the responsibility of Fenglinwei.
Lu Jing felt that he was really smart and could easily solve such a problem!
Although the subordinate wanted to say something, he saw that Lu Jing was getting impatient, so he said nothing and did as he was told.
He trotted all the way back to the palace gate. Ningyue was waiting there quietly, but her eyes were obviously redder than before.
The guard's heart skipped a beat, and he dared not delay any longer, "This way, follow me!"
He led his men and rushed all the way to the Imperial Hospital. Ningyue followed behind, jogging the whole time. Looking at the guards with expressionless faces but very fast steps, she was a little puzzled:
"Why does it feel like he's more anxious than me?"
But no matter what, as long as we can get her out, it's fine!
"Doctor Meng, the imperial concubine is seriously ill. Please, Doctor Meng, save our concubine!"
As soon as Ningyue arrived at the Imperial Hospital, she took the initiative and knelt down in front of Doctor Meng without waiting for the guards to find someone for her!
"Isn't this Miss Ningyue from Concubine Lin's palace? What are you doing? Get up!"
The medicine boy next to Doctor Meng stepped forward and quickly helped Ningyue up.
The guard was about to say something, wanting to say that this was against the rules, but Ningyue wiped her tears and explained:
"Brother Guard, the queen's health has always been taken care of by Imperial Doctor Meng. Imperial Doctor Meng knows the queen's condition better."
Although the imperial physician would treat each concubine in the palace, there were constant struggles in the harem, so the choice of the imperial physician was particularly important.
Even in Fenglinwei, they had heard many stories about the struggles between concubines, bribing the imperial physician to prescribe the wrong prescription for the other party, aggravating the condition...
This kind of thing is something that only they cannot think of, and there is nothing that these women in the harem cannot do!
Sometimes, they even couldn't help but sigh——
"These most noble women in the world also have some of the cruelest hearts!"
Since Ningyue said so, the guards naturally couldn't stop her and prevent Imperial Doctor Meng from seeing the Imperial Concubine.
Anyway, his task was to bring this palace maid to invite the imperial physician. As for who to invite, that was not something he could control.
The guards "escorted" them all the way and saw Ningyue and Doctor Meng enter the door with their own eyes, and only then did they feel relieved.
What they were most worried about was that the palace maid Ningyue would take the opportunity to sneak out from under their noses and deliver a message to the imperial concubine, so they never dared to take it lightly.
Fortunately, there was no danger.
Even if something really happened to the imperial concubine later, it couldn't be blamed on them.
The imperial physicians were also invited, and they had done what they were supposed to do. Naturally, the rest had nothing to do with them.
But he never expected that in the end, they would be the ones to take the blame!
