170. Chapter 170 The queen mother is dead
In the palace, everyone was guarding outside the Jingxin Palace, busy inside and outside, and in a hurry. Xuanyuan Hao and Xuanyuan Li were watching the empress dowager in the hall. The imperial doctor knelt on the ground and said, "Emperor, the Eighth Prince, the Eighth Princess, the Empress Dowager himself has no sense of survival, and his pulse is becoming more and more fragile. I am afraid I can't stand it tonight."
When Wei Shi heard this, she didn't answer and ran out quickly. At this time, everyone's attention was on the Queen Mother's body, and no one paid attention to Wei Shi's actions. After a while, Wei Shi took out a small bottle. It was the immortal pill left for her before the messenger of the Western Regions. There were only three pills in total. During the period of her miscarriage, she took it out and asked the imperial physician, "Will it be useful if she gave her mother to take this immortal pill?"
"Back to the Eighth Princess, is this?"
"This is the elixir left to this princess before the envoy of the Western Regions left. He said that it can cure all diseases. Even if a person dies, taking this elixir can bring about death. I ask you, is this elixir useful for the empress dowager to take this elixir?"
"Back to the Eighth Princess, this pill is a magic pill from Tibet, and is naturally a good pill. However, the empress dowager hurts the internal organs not far from the heart, and there is a lot of blood stasis in the body. If I take this pill, I am afraid that it will react with the blood stasis in the body. Not only will it not be able to save the empress dowager, but it will cause the empress dowager to die suddenly. I think I must not take this pill."
"If you don't take this pill, can you guarantee that your mother will wake up? Didn't you just say that your mother has no sense of survival, and may not be able to survive this night? Since that's the case, what else can you be afraid of? Just give it to your mother and take this pill."
"This..." The imperial doctor looked at Xuanyuan Hao nervously, then looked at the emperor. If he agreed to take this pill, the empress dowager would die immediately, he would not be able to escape death. It would be really difficult for the royal family to serve. He did not dare to refute the tone of the Eighth Princess, so he could only kneel there, sweating profusely.
"Imperial Doctor, you don't have to look at them. You can do whatever you want. If the Empress Dowager has a few shortcomings, I will bear the consequences." Wei Shi said this and saw the Imperial Doctor still kneeling there, not moving. She frowned and shouted, "What are you still standing there? Hurry up and take this pill for the Empress Dowager."
"My memory... obey the order." The imperial physician was so eager to put a pill into the empress dowager's mouth, then lifted her chin and finished it in one go. Then he said tremblingly, "Emperor, Eighth Princess, Eighth Princess, and Empress Dowager have taken pills."
No one paid attention to him, everyone stared at the Queen Mother. After a while, the Queen Mother coughed twice, and then vomited blood with a mouthful of blood.
The imperial physician was so scared that he quickly stepped forward to take the empress dowager's pulse. After a while, he said, "The empress dowager vomited out the blood in his body, but the tonics in this pill were used too much. The pills produced chemical reactions in the empress dowager's body. The empress dowager's pulse became weaker and weaker, and the essence in his body flowed upwards, and I'm afraid... it would take only one hour."
When Wei Shi heard this, tears flowed out. Since she came to Nanli Kingdom and married Xuanyuan Hao, the empress dowager treated her like her biological daughter. She was so good. Now, she is going to die, and she feels very guilty.
