Chapter 396 Everyone has their own plans
"Miss!"
Doctor Huo looked around and saw that there was no one in the room. He then remembered that when he came in just now, Concubine Shu had already sent all the servants out.
"Your Majesty, please be patient. Everything is going according to plan. Your worry will soon be healed!"
Hearing this, Concubine Shu finally opened her eyes, "You mean, Yuan Tai will be back soon?"
"Yes!"
Huo Qishan smiled, "If the emperor doesn't wake up in seven days, the ministers in the court will attack Prince Rui.
At that time, the new faction headed by the academicians will force him to hand over his military power on the grounds that Prince Rui is holding the emperor hostage and attempting to control the government.
The emperor is in a coma, and Prince Rui cannot be free from responsibility. As long as he is willing to give up the power to send troops, the third prince can return safely.
"Great!"
Concubine Shu stood up suddenly, without any trace of her weak look from before.
"But what if the emperor wakes up?"
Concubine Shu asked worriedly again.
I heard that Prince Rui brought people into the palace to examine the emperor. What if the prescription they gave can really make the emperor wake up within seven days?
Huo Qishan smiled and said, "Shu Guifei, do you not believe me?
I have worked in the Imperial Hospital for so many years, and there have been no less than a hundred officials in the capital who have come to me for treatment, and I have never heard of any official who thought there was something wrong with my prescriptions. "
Concubine Shu laughed and said, "What are you talking about, Doctor Huo! Yuan Tai believes in you so much, so I will believe in you too.
I'm just a little worried."
Huo Qishan stepped forward, held her hand, and gently kneaded it in his palm. "Don't worry, Concubine. I dare not say anything else, but when it comes to medication, there is no one better in the whole of Daliang."
Concubine Shu pulled her hand back stiffly and said with a wry smile, "I feel relieved with what Doctor Huo said.
Doctor Huo, don't worry. When the matter is settled, Yuan Tai and I will agree to whatever Doctor Huo wants."
Huo Qiming was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"I like this promise of everything."
After saying that, he picked up the medicine box and walked out.
Concubine Shu sat where she was and covered her chest with her hands.
This Huo Qiming is getting bolder and bolder.
The first two times he just teased me with words, but this time he dared to go straight for it.
She is only temporarily under the control of others because of Yuantai's affairs. When Yuantai comes back, she will definitely tell Yuantai to eliminate the ambitious Doctor Huo as soon as possible.
Huo Qiming walked out of Yonghe Palace and immediately put away the smile on his face.
Does this Concubine Shu really think that he is attracted to her who is old and ugly?
He is doing this now just to give reassurance to Chen Yuantai who is about to come out.
The Third Prince knew that he was working so hard only for the sake of personal gain, and would therefore relax his vigilance.
And he had to plant the medicinal insects into the Third Prince's body as soon as possible during the period when the Third Prince relaxed his vigilance.
In this way, no matter what the third prince wants to do in the future, he must be spared.
As for why not betting on other princes?
Huo Qiming sneered. The second prince was weak and sickly, and the fourth prince was dull-witted. Currently, the only one who could be used was the third prince.
When Huo Qiming returned to the Imperial Hospital, everyone looked at him.
Huo Qiming paused unconsciously.
What do they want to do with these looks full of resentment and hatred?
It was Doctor Liu who responded in time, "Doctor Huo, how is Concubine Shu doing?"
"No problem!"
Huo Qiming said, "I have already prescribed her some tranquilizing and refreshing medicine. I will arrange for someone to get some and send it to the queen later."
"By the way, where's Song Ming?"
Huo Qishan looked around and didn't see Song Ming, so he immediately asked.
"Doctor Song has gone to boil the Chinese medicine!"
Doctor Liu said quickly.
Huo Qiming then remembered, "Yes, yes, you guys go ahead and do your work, I'll go see him."
As he said this, he went out and headed towards the medicine house.
"Doctor Wen, didn't you just say you wanted to ask Doctor Huo's opinion? Why did he leave so soon?"
"Yes, he does care about Dr. Song, but what about our research on tonics?"
"I see that Doctor Huo doesn't seem to be worried at all. Did he never intend to take care of this matter?"
"If he doesn't care, who will? If the higher-ups blame us, won't Doctor Huo be the one to take the lead?"
"Forget it, forget it. Imperial Doctor Huo has a good relationship with the Third Prince and Imperial Concubine Shu. Even if something happens, there will be people to speak up for him. Let's not worry about it and get back to work!
What do you think of the recipe I just thought of?"
"Although your recipe is good, it lacks..."
After talking for a long time, they finally started to study the prescription in a serious manner.
Inside the medicine house.
Song Ming was about to fall asleep looking at the steaming casserole.
He supported his chin with his hand, and his head was as light as a dragonfly skimming the water.
Huo Qiming came in and saw this situation, and couldn't help but shout, "Doctor Song, if you are too tired, go to the side and take a rest."
Song Ming opened his eyes immediately when he heard the voice: "Doctor Huo!"
Huo Qiming nodded. "Although Rui Ang asked Dr. Song to come in person to make the medicine, Dr. Song only needs to watch from the side and does not need to do it himself."
"I can still handle this little thing."
Song Ming said.
At this moment, there was a sizzling sound coming from the medicine jar. Without bothering to say anything, he quickly opened the jar and found that the medicine inside was almost boiled.
He immediately picked up the pot, asked the medicine boy to find a bowl, and carefully poured the medicine into the bowl. Then he wiped his hands and said, "Doctor Huo, do you want to come with me to deliver medicine to the emperor?"
Huo Qiming nodded, "I'll go over with you to take a look."
The two men took the medicine to the emperor's bedroom, but were stopped by the guards at the door.
"What's going on here?"
Huo Qiming frowned, "This is medicine prepared for the emperor. Can you afford to delay the emperor's medication?"
The guard had a blank expression on his face and replied, "Prince Rui ordered that it is too late today, so when the imperial doctors come to deliver the medicine, they should be stopped and not allowed to enter to disturb the emperor."
"impossible!"
Song Ming was completely confused.
"Prince Rui ordered me to make this medicine. I made it until late at night. How could I not let the emperor take it?"
"Prince Rui's orders are clear. The emperor needs to rest and cannot be disturbed. Please go back!"
"Nonsense!"
Huo Qiming shouted angrily,
"Who is the imperial physician? Shouldn't the emperor's health be governed by the Imperial Hospital?"
The guard's expression remained unchanged. "I am just following orders. Prince Rui said that Concubine Shu and the Imperial Hospital have given Prince Rui full authority to make the decision on this matter, so we can only follow Prince Rui's orders."
Song Ming and Huo Qiming were both stunned.
