Chapter 280: If he dies, he dies. What does it have to do with him?
Wen Xingchu also went to the kitchen to get some fresh corns, skewered them on wooden sticks and roasted them over the fire. Little Jiang Mingxiao's cheeks were flushed and sweat was pouring down his face, but he stared at the potatoes in the fire that were gradually emitting fragrance.
"Master, the potatoes smell so good!"
Mingxiao, who just celebrated his third birthday and is now four years old, still remembers the taste of the roasted potatoes that Mu Jiaojiao gave him a few months ago. The soft and sticky potatoes make his mouth water just thinking about them now.
Wen Xingchu looked at him like this and couldn't help but rub his little head. All he did all day was eat!
Because of the heat, Mu Jiaojiao and Jiang Jin sat away from the fire and sat in the pavilion, drooling at the sight of their chubby son.
At this moment, An Yi came out from the dark, his tone more serious than ever before. It seemed that the situation was urgent and he no longer cared about the rule that secret guards could not appear in the open.
"Master, urgent news has come from the palace!"
Jiang Jin reached out and took the letter from An Yi's hand, and only then did he know what had happened. After reading it, his expression froze.
According to his estimation, the news from Linzhou was about to reach Yudu, but unexpectedly, Emperor Shangxuan Hedi vomited blood and fell into a coma again at this port.
Fortunately, as soon as he received the news of Linzhou's fall, he sent someone to inform Ye Zijin as soon as possible, and also sent people to investigate what happened to the Linzhou army.
However, even if Ye Zijin is prepared and can stabilize the situation in Linzhou, if something happens to Yu Duxuan and the Emperor, a struggle for the throne will probably break out. By then, Yu Du will be in an extremely unfavorable situation due to internal and external troubles.
Mu Jiaojiao saw that Jiang Jin's face looked bad after reading the letter, so she took the letter and started reading. When she saw the words "Xuan Hedi vomited blood and fainted", she seemed to be lost in thought.
"Why would a perfectly healthy person keep vomiting blood?"
Mu Jiaojiao actually couldn't understand it. Logically speaking, there were a lot of imperial doctors in the palace. If there were any hidden dangers in Xuanhedi's body, they would have discovered it early, but things were so unexpected.
The last incident with Prince De caused Emperor Xuanhe to become so angry that he vomited blood. After waking up, he was even more furious. He directly suppressed Prince De's lineage and forced Prince De to leave Yudu. This time, because of the lawsuit filed by the Meng family, he vomited blood and fell into a coma.
As a doctor, Mu Jiaojiao felt that there was no such coincidence in the world, and she had a vague guess.
"Madam, do you mean that there is something wrong with Father's health?"
After being reminded by Mu Jiaojiao, Jiang Jin also thought of the clues in recent days. Then he looked at Mu Jiaojiao in shock and asked in an increasingly serious tone.
"It's just a guess without any diagnosis." Mu Jiaojiao didn't deny it and looked at Jiang Jin with a hesitant tone.
"And if it's a common illness, the imperial doctors at the Imperial Hospital are no pushovers and will definitely be able to spot it early."
After hearing what Mu Jiaojiao said, Jiang Jin's mind was full of thoughts. His hands tapped unconsciously on the stone table of the pavilion, and his eyes were filled with unfathomable emotions.
"Madam, is there a possibility that even the imperial doctors at the Imperial Hospital cannot diagnose this disease?"
Then Jiang Jin seemed to have thought of something, his expression was solemn, and his eyes were filled with a dark ink that could not be dissolved.
"Ajin means..."
Mu Jiaojiao seemed to have thought of something, with a thoughtful look on her face, but she also felt that it was natural. Isn't it just murdering the emperor and supporting her son to ascend the throne? It has been happening since ancient times and is nothing surprising.
"If that's the case, I'm afraid Father Xuan's decree will come to the palace soon. I'll just have to keep an eye on it then."
Mu Jiaojiao thought of her father He Zhouyun who had stayed in the mansion to watch over her pregnancy. If the imperial doctors were really helpless, the empress dowager's decree would probably come soon.
His father He Zhouyun was also knowledgeable. After coming to Prince Jin's Mansion, the father and daughter would discuss medical skills. He Zhouyun learned from Meng He that Mu Jiaojiao had taken the southern Xinjiang poisonous insects, and that Prince Jin's Mansion had been attacked by a wave of assassins raised by the poisonous insects.
He found many ancient medical books on poisonous insects and studied them every day in his spare time. When he encountered something obscure, he would discuss it with Mu Jiaojiao. This was considered a small knowledge of poisonous insects in southern Xinjiang.
So if it is really as Mu Jiaojiao and Jiang Jin thought, and Concubine Xian also attacked Emperor Xuanhe, and the imperial physician was unable to detect it, then it is very likely that a poisonous insect was used. It would be good for my father to go and take a look at the situation.
As for the blockade of the palace, this incident must have happened suddenly. Even if Concubine Xian wanted to kill Emperor Xuanhe, it would definitely not be now. Prince Yi is still undeveloped. If Emperor Xuanhe died, they, mother and son, would not necessarily be the winners.
Moreover, there is the Empress Dowager in charge. Although the Empress Dowager was born in the Tang family, she is the biological mother of Emperor Xuanhe after all. No matter how cruel she is, she should not watch the emperor die in such an unclear way.
Even if the Empress Dowager didn't care about Emperor Xuanhe's life or death, she would certainly not joke about her own glory and power. At this juncture, she was not more than 80% sure of continuing to support Prince Yi to ascend the throne. I believe that with the Empress Dowager Tang's shrewdness, she would not take the risk.
Mu Jiaojiao could figure it out, so how could Jiang Jin, who was good at manipulating people's hearts, not figure it out?
So after that, he didn't watch his son and wife roasting potatoes enthusiastically, but ordered Wushuang to push the wheelchair and go to discuss something with his father-in-law.
After the discussion, he also had to summon his subordinates to stabilize the situation and order people to spread messages everywhere, asking his subordinates not to act rashly to prevent being caught. After all, there was a high probability that Emperor Xuanhe would wake up this time.
When he left, he saw that the roasted potatoes were not ready yet, and sighed in his heart that it seemed that he was not destined to have these roasted potatoes. Last time, his wife roasted them at the farm but he didn't get to eat them. This time, it seemed that by the time he was done with them, they would be gone too.
After all, there were a bunch of maids and servants around who were eyeing the fire eagerly, especially the boy He Ye, who had already run to squat by the fire with Jiang Mingxiao, just hoping to eat the hottest potatoes as soon as they were ready.
really
Mu Jiaojiao and Jiang Jin's predictions were correct. In the evening, the Empress Dowager announced He Zhouyun's decree and entered Prince Jin's mansion.
Just as He Zhouyun entered the palace to treat Emperor Xuanhe, the urgent news from Linzhou finally reached Yudu and entered the imperial city.
After receiving the news, the court was in chaos. The prime minister was at home unemployed because of the Prince De incident. The cabinet ministers in charge of the matter were overwhelmed by the news and were in a panic. They just hoped that Emperor Xuanhe would wake up quickly and make a decision on such an important matter.
On the morning of the second day after He Zhouyun treated Emperor Xuanhe, Emperor Xuanhe finally woke up as expected. Strangely enough, he just felt weak after waking up. After the imperial doctors diagnosed him, they still said that he was in a coma due to excessive liver fire and anxiety.
But only He Zhouyun understood that there was something wrong with Xuan Hedi's heartbeat, and the reason he woke up was actually because Mu Jiaojiao gave him the medicine, which was a drug that Mu Jiaojiao had prepared when she was treating Zhao Jianjia's poisonous insect and could put the insect into a short-term dormancy.
However, He Zhouyun would not say such things, so he just said the same thing as the imperial doctors, saying that Emperor Xuanhe was just too angry!
Anyway, Emperor Xuan He was not good to his own son-in-law. So if he died, he died. What did it have to do with him?
