Absolutely! My maid was reborn after time travel

Chapter 516 The Queen Mother is seriously ill and cannot afford it

Author: Yuan An

Many royal family members gathered in Zhanghua Palace.

When Shen Qinglan saw this formation, he almost lost his footing.

Zhao Shun supported her and said, "Don't worry, Grandma Huang will be fine."

Shen Qinglan nodded and walked towards the inner hall.

"The Imperial Grandmother...the grandson's daughter-in-law has met the Imperial Grandmother and wishes her well." Shen Qinglan knelt down and saluted.

"My grandson, please pay your respects to the imperial grandmother." Zhao Shun also knelt down.

The Empress Dowager was lying on the bed, turning to look at them, with tears in her eyes, unable to say a word, just blinking.

Seeing the imperial grandmother like this, both Shen Qinglan and Zhao Shun were heartbroken.

"Prince Regent, Princess Regent, and the Empress Dowager, please get up." Zhou Nei said.

"Thank you, Grandma Royal."

After Zhao Shun said that, he helped Shen Qinglan stand up.

Shen Qinglan wiped her tears, came to the Empress Dowager, and held her hand.

"Emperor's grandmother, the granddaughter-in-law is late. The emperor's grandmother has suffered such a big crime, but the granddaughter-in-law is not here to serve her. The granddaughter-in-law is unfilial." Shen Qinglan choked with sobs.

The Empress Dowager held her hand more tightly, tears welling up in her eyes, and she shook her head slightly, as if blaming her for not coming all the way back.

Zhao Shun also walked closer and said: "Royal Grandma, Sisi misses you very much. If she can't see you, she won't feel at ease."

"Brother Shunwang."

At this time, Zhao Bai and Jiang Chuo came to Zhanghua Palace together.

Shen Qinglan stood up and saluted the Emperor and Queen together with Zhao Shun.

"No need to be polite, Brother Shun Wang, please take a step to speak." Zhao Bai said.

Zhao Shun followed Zhao Bai out of the inner hall. Shen Qinglan was very anxious, fearing that the emperor's grandmother was in bad condition, and wanted to follow them to hear what they had to say, but with so many royal family members there, she was afraid of being accused of not knowing the rules.

Jiang Chuo walked up to her and said softly: "Sister-in-law, are you okay?"

"Thank you, Queen, for your concern. I am fine."

Shen Qinglan said, stepped forward and held her hand, and looked at the imperial grandmother again.

Jiang Chuo understood what she meant, so he said: "The Empress Dowager needs to rest. All royal relatives, please move to the side hall to rest first."

"yes."

After everyone left, Jiang Chuo asked: "Sister-in-law, what do you want to say?"

"Empress, I think there is something strange about the Queen's grandmother's illness. Do you know the inside story?" Shen Qinglan asked.

Jiang Chuo shook his head, "Your Majesty and I sent people to investigate and found nothing strange."

"Sisi..."

The Empress Dowager stretched out her hand towards Shen Qinglan. Seeing this, Shen Qinglan quickly sat down again and held her old man's hand.

"Royal Grandma, don't worry. Sisi's health is fine. You don't have to worry. Sisi will take good care of herself," Shen Qinglan said.

The Queen Mother nodded, but her eyes were still full of worry.

"Royal Grandmother, if someone harms you, Sisi will never let him go." Shen Qinglan said.

The Empress Dowager increased the strength on her hands and shook her head repeatedly.

Jiang Chuo couldn't help but frowned when he saw this scene.

Could it be that there was really a plot to cause the Queen Mother to become so ill?

Shen Qinglan looked at Waiter Zhou again, but Waiter Zhou lowered his head.

She patted the Empress Dowager's hand gently and said, "Grandma, Sisi is a little thirsty. Go get a drink of water first."

"Um……"

The Queen Mother responded and let go of her hand.

Shen Qinglan stood up, looked at Jiang Chuo, and said, "Queen, I'll go out first."

Jiang Chuo understood what she meant, so he said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I will take good care of your grandmother."

Before Shen Qinglan left, she glanced at Chamberlain Zhou. Not long after she left the inner hall, Chamberlain Zhou followed her out.

"Attendant Zhou, you and the nuns are the most caring people around the Imperial Grandmother. Can you tell me what's going on with the Imperial Grandmother's illness?" Shen Qinglan asked.

Zhou Nei Shi sighed softly, frowned and said: "Returning to the Princess Regent, the Empress Dowager's illness is indeed strange. The Empress Dowager was fine the day before, but she suddenly fell ill the next night without any warning.

.”

"What did the imperial doctor say?" Shen Qinglan asked.

"The imperial doctor didn't diagnose it, so he just said it was a stroke." Zhou Nei Shi replied.

"Are you sure it's not poisoning?" Shen Qinglan asked again.

Zhou Neishi shook his head, "Old slave, I don't think it's poisoning. The imperial doctor didn't say it was poisoning. Logically speaking, the imperial doctor wouldn't dare to lie."

"Okay, I understand. Mr. Zhou, please take good care of the imperial grandmother first. I will stay in the palace for the next few days to take care of her." Shen Qinglan said.

"Princess, please forgive me for saying more. If you are really by the Queen Mother's side every day, the Queen Mother will not feel at ease. You should go back to your home." Zhou Nei said.

Shen Qinglan lowered his head helplessly, sighed softly, and said, "Okay."

"Princess, what the Empress Dowager cares most about now is the child in your belly. Maybe when the little prince is born, the Empress Dowager will get better." Zhou Nei said.

"I hope so." Shen Qinglan said.

"Old slave, please leave now."

Zhou Neiyi bowed, turned around and entered the inner hall.

Shen Qinglan stood there, took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears on his face.

At this moment, Zhao Shun walked up to her and said, "Don't worry, Grandma Huang will get better."

"What did His Majesty just say to you? Is it about the Imperial Grandmother?" Shen Qinglan asked.

"No, your Majesty just discussed some political matters with me." Zhao Shun said.

"Your Majesty, Chamberlain Zhou said that he also feels that there is something fishy about the illness of the Imperial Grandmother. I think we should start with the people around the Imperial Grandmother to investigate," Shen Qinglan said.

"It would be detrimental to the royal family's face to carry out the investigation with great fanfare. Moreover, it would not be conducive to the imperial grandmother's recuperation. It is better to arrange for Taoist priest Xiu Yuan to enter the palace for pulse diagnosis first," Zhao Shun said.

Shen Qinglan thought for a while and nodded.

"Um."

-

Before nightfall, the royal family members left Ouchi.

Zhao Shun invited Taoist Master Xiu Yuan into the inner hall to check the Empress Dowager's pulse.

At this moment, apart from a few confidants of the Empress Dowager, there were only the Regent and his wife, His Majesty and the Queen in the Zhanghua Palace.

After Taoist Xiuyuan checked, Jiang Chuo asked: "Cousin, how is the condition of the Empress Dowager?"

"The Empress Dowager's symptoms are indeed a stroke." Taoist priest Xiu Yuan said.

"Cousin, let's move to the outer hall to talk." Zhao Shun said.

Taoist priest Xiu Yuan nodded and followed Zhao Shun out of the inner hall. Shen Qinglan, Jiang Chuo, and Zhao Bai also chased out.

"Taoist Xiuyuan, is there anything unusual about the Empress Dowager's illness?" Shen Qinglan asked.

Taoist priest Xiuyuan stroked his beard and said, "I haven't noticed anything strange yet. As people get older, such situations are indeed prone to occur."

"Is the stroke a cerebral infarction or...cerebral hemorrhage?" Shen Qinglan guessed.

"I think it's possible," Zhao Bai said.

"What is cerebral infarction? What is cerebral hemorrhage?" Jiang Chuo was puzzled.

"That's... bleeding within the skull due to rupture of blood vessels, or blockage of blood vessels, is usually caused by high blood pressure." Zhao Bai said.

"High blood pressure?" This is the first time for Master Xiuyuan to hear such words.

"That's it... Princess Regent, please explain." Zhao Bai looked at Shen Qinglan.

"High blood pressure is equivalent to a sealed container. The pressure inside continues to increase, and eventually it will explode or break. In our body, the same will happen when the pressure in the blood vessels increases," Shen Qinglan said.
