The eunuch was blind and rushed to the emperor as soon as he saw him. But the emperor was anxious to see a folk doctor who was said to have amazing medical skills.
After suffering for many days, Murong Zheng finally saw hope. He was naturally impatient and certainly had no good face towards those who blocked his way.
"Your Majesty, I have no other choice. The Imperial Concubine is dying. If you don't go over to see her, you may never see her again."
The young eunuch stood up and knelt on the ground again, crying and shouting. He originally thought that Concubine Dong's lie was a bit too big, and he was a little uneasy in his heart, but seeing the emperor like this, he no longer cared whether he was deceiving the emperor or not.
"You are not a servant of Qingqiu Palace, how do you know what is going on in Qingqiu Palace? You are dying, right? Then let her die."
Because the Queen had been in a coma for the past few days, Murong Zheng was in a bad mood and had no time to care about other things. When he heard that it was Concubine Dong's matter, he became even more annoyed. He knew best that Concubine Dong would make a fuss for no reason and he didn't believe that Concubine Dong was seriously ill.
Because of Concubine Dong's unreasonable behavior, the Queen seemed more sensible and considerate, like a lady from a noble family.
"Your Majesty, if the Empress heard this, she would be sad." The servant originally served Concubine Dong, and naturally saw the Emperor's tenderness and affection towards the Concubine. Today, he suddenly heard Murong Zheng say such words, and he was stunned. After a long time, he spoke in a stammering voice.
"Go back and tell her to stay in Qingliang Palace. Otherwise, there are many places in this palace that are not as good as Qingliang Palace."
After Murong Zheng finished speaking, he walked out in a hurry. His mind was now filled with the Queen's illness. He really hoped that the doctor he had found with great difficulty could cure the Queen.
The young eunuch kneeling on the ground behind him did not stand up until Murong Zheng disappeared. He staggered out of Qifeng Palace and walked to the back of Qingliang Palace. He leaned over, picked up a brick, and knocked against the wall. After three knocks, Concubine Dong's anxious voice came from the palace: "You damn slave, don't you know that the emperor is coming? Why are you calling me out now?"
Through the wall, Concubine Dong's sharp voice came from inside the wall, filled with dissatisfaction and resentment.
“Your Majesty, the Emperor will not come. He also told you to stay here obediently. I am powerless and cannot change his mind. I…” The young eunuch knew Concubine Dong’s character best and knew that a storm was coming, so he didn’t dare to finish his words and just stood there waiting.
"Fool, idiot, didn't you tell the emperor that I was dying of illness? How could the queen compare to me? If he cares so much about the queen, how could he not worry about me? Are you lying to me? Or did you not tell the emperor that I was seriously ill?"
When Concubine Dong heard the young eunuch's words, she was panicked. She never thought that even after she said that she was going to die, she still didn't let the emperor come.
But after the panic, she began to doubt, wondering if the eunuch had not conveyed her situation, or if the emperor did not believe what the eunuch said
She knew best how the emperor treated the queen. How could the emperor be so caring towards the queen but not care about her life or death
No way, this is impossible...
"Your Majesty, what I said is true. You have to think of a way. If the Emperor does not come to see you, then..." The little eunuch did not dare to say anything. In fact, when he saw Murong Zheng's figure disappear from his sight, he already had such a feeling in his heart that his majesty had completely fallen out of favor.
However, he didn't dare to say this. He hoped that Concubine Dong could regain the emperor's favor, because it not only concerned Concubine Dong's future, but also his own.
He was used to the days of following Concubine Dong and acting tyrannically, and he couldn't stand the vigilance and ridicule in the palace in recent days.
