Chapter 237
Shangguan Ziling had just stepped into the gate of the Regent's Palace and had not yet completely settled down when urgent news came from the palace: the Emperor summoned the Regent.
Upon hearing the news, Mo Shaoxie turned around and stepped into the palace.
Shangguan Ziling returned to Xinlingyuan, sat on the swing in Xinlingyuan, and felt the cool autumn breeze blowing across her cheeks.
Dong Qing walked into the yard and reported: "Princess, Miss Yun is here."
Shangguan Ziling immediately stood up from the swing when she heard this, with a look of surprise on her face, "Youyou is here, let her in quickly."
Yun Youyou walked into Xinlingyuan. Shangguan Ziling walked up to her, took her hand, walked into the room and sat down, saying, "Youyou".
"Zi Ling, you don't know that the eldest prince rebelled in the Mountain Resort. He actually surrounded the Mountain Resort. My father broke out of the siege with a few royal guards and escaped. Fortunately, the reinforcements arrived in time and prevented the situation from getting worse." Yun Youyou's words were full of emotion and relief.
Shangguan Ziling heard her words and said with a smile: "General Yun is really powerful."
Yun Youyou smiled slightly, "Hehe, but the eldest prince is locked up now, and I don't know how the emperor will punish him."
Shangguan Ziling and Yun Youyou were sitting in the room, talking about recent events. Shangguan Ziling said softly, "Anyway, Jun Yaoqi is done for this time." There was a hint of pride and ease in her words.
Yun Youyou nodded, "That's right. He really brought this upon himself." A satisfied smile appeared on her face.
Shangguan Ziling suddenly remembered something, "Oh, right, I received a letter from my eldest brother when I was at the top of Leichi Mountain. He said that your wedding date has been set for the 28th of next month, which is still about 20 days away. Isn't it a bit rushed?"
Yun Youyou blushed and replied in a low voice, "Well, the Queen told mother several times, both openly and secretly, so father and mother asked Uncle Shangguan to move up the wedding date." Her voice was a little shy, but it also revealed her anticipation for the upcoming wedding.
Shangguan Ziling laughed out loud after hearing her words, "Congratulations, Youyou will be my sister-in-law from now on. It's a bit of a rush, but when I return home tomorrow, I'll see if I can help in any way." Her words were full of joy and enthusiasm.
Yun Youyou also laughed happily, "Thank you, Zi Ling."
Shangguan Ziling changed the subject and said, "The eldest prince's party has already fallen, why is the queen still targeting Youyou?" She frowned slightly.
Yun Youyou curled her lips and said, "Humph! Who knows?"
Shangguan Ziling understood a little bit in her mind that the Queen simply valued the military power in the hands of Yun Youyou's father.
Chun Xiao walked into the room, carrying a delicate pastry plate. With a gentle smile on her face, she placed the plate on the table, then stepped aside and stayed quietly.
Shangguan Ziling and Yun Youyou were sitting at the table, enjoying pastries and chatting about interesting things.
In the imperial study in the palace, the "Prince Regent" said in a deep voice, "I just received a memorial from officials in the southwest. In the southwestern area, the dam collapsed, flooding, and a large number of people were displaced, with heavy casualties. What do you think, Prince Regent?"
Mo Shaoxie said calmly: "The most urgent task is to open the warehouses and distribute food." His words were concise and powerful, directly pointing out the key to solving the problem.
The emperor frowned. Opening the granaries to provide relief grain was inevitable, and rebuilding the dam was also a huge project. Who should be sent?
Mo Shaoxie stood quietly aside while several ministers were discussing.
The emperor sat in a chair, his face pale, his eyes revealing deep fatigue and anxiety.
He had just experienced the frightening incident at the summer resort, and now learned that the southwest region had suffered severe flooding, which made him feel extremely stressed and troubled.
His chest ached and he held the armrests tightly with both hands, as if trying to support his body.
Suddenly, the emperor felt dizzy and the scene in front of him began to blur. He tried to struggle, but his body was out of control and slowly fell backwards.
"Your Majesty?" a minister exclaimed, his voice full of fear and anxiety.
"Come quickly, please call the imperial physician!" another minister shouted hurriedly.
Several eunuchs came rushing over upon hearing the noise, and they quickly helped the emperor to a palace nearby.
Several imperial doctors rushed over, their faces showing a trace of solemnity. He walked to the emperor and carefully checked the emperor's pulse and breathing.
A minister walked up to Mo Shaoxie with a worried look on his face, "Regent, the emperor was affected by the internal force of the man in black in the Mountain Resort. The imperial physician said at the time that he was fine, but the emperor later fell into a coma for three days. Now the emperor is..." His words were full of worry and uneasiness.
Mo Shaoxie glanced at him calmly and said, "I am not an imperial physician and I don't know medical skills."
Shangguan Dong said in a deep voice: "Let's wait for the imperial physician to take a look before we talk!"
After hearing the news, the queen rushed over, with a trace of anxiety and worry on her face.
"Greetings, Her Majesty." The other ministers saluted.
The Queen asked, "What about the Emperor? What did the Imperial Physician say?"
"Don't panic, Your Majesty. The imperial physician is inside diagnosing the situation," said Shangguan Dong.
The queen nodded, walked to the bedside, and looked at the unconscious emperor, her heart filled with worry and anxiety.
The queen looked at the imperial doctors standing by. Her face was filled with worry, and her tone was filled with a hint of reproach, "The emperor was fine, why is he unconscious again?"
Imperial Physician Han shuddered slightly, lowered his head, and replied respectfully: "Empress, the Emperor was so angry at the Mountain Resort that he has not yet recovered. The Emperor is in a coma this time because of overwork." His words revealed his concern for the Emperor's health.
The queen felt a little relieved after hearing Han's explanation, but she still asked worriedly, "Is that all?"
Imperial Physician Han nodded, "Yes, Queen. In addition to being overworked, the Emperor's diet is also somewhat irregular, which may also cause physical discomfort."
After the Queen listened to Han Imperial Physician's explanation, she said softly, "Han Imperial Physician, you imperial physicians should assist Han Imperial Physician and help the Emperor take good care of his body so that he can fully recover as soon as possible."
Imperial Physician Han nodded, "Don't worry, Queen."
The queen walked out of the palace slowly, with a hint of fatigue on her face, but a determination gleaming in her eyes.
The Queen nodded slightly to the Regent and several ministers and said, "The Regent and several ministers will leave the palace first. The Emperor is just overtired. The imperial physician said that if he takes good care of himself, he will be fine." Her words revealed a calmness and confidence that made people feel at ease.
The ministers heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this. They bowed to the queen and said, "Yes, I will take my leave." They turned and left.
The queen watched their backs disappear at the end of the corridor, and silently prayed in her heart that the emperor would recover soon.
