When Su Qing arrived at Yangxin Palace Hall, she didn’t see Xiao Zeyu. The head eunuch wasn’t there either. Su Qing asked the eunuch on duty, “Where’s the Emperor?”
“The Emperor went to visit Lord He.”
When the eunuch saw the Empress, he hurriedly knelt and answered all her questions. In any case, the Emperor had nothing to hide from the Empress.
In the restaurant, she had heard those people say that He Yulin was angered to death by him. At that time, she thought that they were spreading rumors. She did not expect that Lord He was sick.
“Where is Lord He?”
Su Qing decided to take a look. Although Lord He was pedantic, he did his best to educate the prince. He did not make any major mistakes before being replaced. She still had to give him the respect he deserved.
“In the Imperial Academy of Medicine.”
The eunuch replied respectfully. Su Qing didn’t wait for him to finish his sentence before walking towards the Imperial Academy of Medicine.
“Mother, I want to see my teacher.”
Ziqi had caught up with Su Qing. A child’s heart was pure. A teacher for a day was a father for life. He respected He Yulin very much.
“Alright.”
A person should know how to be grateful. A person who doesn’t know how to be grateful can’t achieve great things. Su Qing nodded in relief and promised her son to visit Lord He with him.
Afraid that Ziqi would tire, Su Qing ordered people to bring the phoenix carriage over. She took Ziqi to the Imperial Academy of Medicine in the phoenix carriage.
The Imperial Academy of Medicine was brightly lit. The imperial physicians tried their best but could not wake He Yu Lin up. Fortunately, Xiao Zeyu gave He Yu Lin the heart-protecting pill that Su Qing gave him. It protected his heart and kept him alive.
“Reporting to the Emperor, Lord, He is bleeding from his ears, nose, and mouth. This subject suspects that Lord He is bleeding in his brain. This subject is powerless.”
Imperial Physician Lin was the head of the Imperial Physicians. His medical skills were the highest among the Physicians. His acupuncture could bring the dead back to life. If he said he couldn’t save him, the other Imperial Physicians couldn’t do anything about it.
“Let me see.”
Xiao Zeyu looked at He Yulin, whose face was flushed red and eyes were tightly shut. A trace of guilt flashed through his eyes. He should not have announced the change of Grand Tutor in front of all the officials in the court. He should have hinted to He Yulin to resign himself. This way, he could preserve his face and not let the old man be so angry that his life was in danger. If he died, it would be equivalent to him killing him in disguise.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Imperial Physician Lin knew that the Emperor also knew medicine, so he gave way to Xiao Zeyu to take He Yu Lin’s pulse.
Xiao Zeyu sat before the sickbed and touched He Yulin’s pulse. His pulse was deep and weak. No one could reverse it. It was already a dead pulse.
“Emperor, it would be great if the Empress was here. Her medical skills could bring the dead back to life.”
Imperial Physician Lin reminded him from the side. All the imperial physicians in the Imperial Academy of Medicine were not as skilled as the Empress. They could only be called doctors, while the Empress was worthy of the title of divine doctor.
“Eunuch Su, go and see if the Empress has returned. If the Empress returns, tell her to quickly come to the Imperial Academy of Medicine to save Lord He.”
“Reporting to the Emperor, the Empress is here.”
Xiao Zeyu had just finished speaking when he heard the eunuch’s report. He hurriedly said,
“Let the Empress in.”
Before Su Qing could enter the room, Zi Qi ran in first. When she saw Lord He lying unconscious on the sickbed, Zi Qi ran over and pulled He Yulin’s hand, crying,
“Teacher.”
“Ziqi, make way. Mother will take a look.”
Su Qing pulled her son over to check He Yulin’s pulse. She confirmed that he had a cerebral hemorrhage. Even in modern times, if the treatment were not timely, he would die, let alone in ancient times.
Moreover, Lord He’s cerebral hemorrhage was severe. If an X-ray was taken, his entire head might be covered in blood.
In this situation, even if he were saved, he would be paralyzed. However, he had to be saved, or the Emperor’s reputation among the people would be affected.
This person was not dead yet, but the rumors had already spread throughout the capital. If Lord He died, the entire country would probably say that the Emperor was not benevolent and killed the donkey after it was done grinding to anger Lord He.
“All of you can leave!”
Su Qing asked the imperial physicians to leave. She wanted to perform minimally invasive surgery on Lord He to stop the bleeding, but she needed to take out the surgical equipment from the system. No one could stay in the room.
“I’ll stay and help you!”
Xiao Zeyu wanted to stay and help. Su Qing handed Ziqi to him.
“Take Ziqi out and wait for me.”
“Mother, can I stay here to accompany my teacher?”
Ziqi didn’t want to leave, but he wanted to stay. It could be seen that his feelings for He Yulin were still intense.
“No, you’ll only disturb Mother’s rescue.”
Su Qing shook her head and told her son to leave immediately.
Xiao Zeyu ordered his men to close the door, not allowing anyone to disturb Su Qing.
“Xiao Qi, Little Lingling, come out.”
Su Qing removed the surgical equipment from the system and ordered Xiao Qi and Little Lingling to be her nurses. Xiao Qi was experienced in this area, and their medical equipment was advanced.
In the past, when her MMaster returned from war, she was always the one who treated her MMaster’s illness. She was more than able to be a helper.
Little Lingling passed Su Qing a scalpel. He admired his new MMaster. Although his MMaster was always cold, he could feel her warm heart.
Su Qing first gave Lord He some hemostatic medicine to prevent severe bleeding in the brain. The patient could die before the operation.
Su Qing started the surgery after giving Lord He the medicine. The minimally invasive surgery was not like a craniotomy where the head had to be sawed open. It was just a hole to insert the equipment into the brain and perform the surgery while looking at the equipment.
Two hours later, Su Qing finished the surgery for He Yulin and stopped the bleeding in his brain. However, in his condition, although he could survive, he would suffer from the side effects of paralysis and would have to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair.
Su Qing thought of her son’s pleading gaze before he left, so she prescribed recovering bodily functions and ordered Xiao Qi to take medication. She guarded the Imperial Hospital, and there were all kinds of elixirs. Xiao Qi quickly found the herbs required in Su Qing’s prescription and made a bottle of pills.
The damage was to the nerves in the brain. It was impossible to recover in a short period. He needed to take medicine continuously for at least two months to recover.
“You two take care of him tonight.”
The first night was a critical period. The surveillance equipment could not be removed. If there was any bleeding, he had to take medicine immediately. Su Qing left Xiao Qi and Little Lingling to care for Lord He. She opened the door and walked out.
The imperial physicians were waiting outside the door. They wanted to look into the room when they saw Su Qing come out. Unfortunately, the Empress quickly closed the door, so they could not see anything.
“How did it go?”
Xiao Zeyu asked Su Qing. If she couldn’t cure him, then no one could save Lord He.
Su Qing glanced at him but didn’t say anything. She slowly shook her head.
“Teacher, teacher!” Ziqi cried when he saw his mother’s reaction. He ran into a room while calling out to his teacher.
Su Qing pulled him back and ordered the guards to bring Ziqi back.
When Ziqi was brought back, he cried and called Master. Everyone present was moved by the First Prince and accepted Lord He’s death. When they took Lord He’s pulse, they knew that Lord He didn’t have much time left, but they didn’t expect him to die so quickly.
Fortunately, Lord He did not die in their hands. No one would blame the Empress for taking the blame. They might be expelled from the Imperial Academy of Medicine if it were them.
Su Qing saw everyone’s reaction and ordered coldly,
“No one is allowed to approach this room! Lord He’s death is not to be spread out of the palace, do you hear me?”
