Chapter 232 Something is growing in the Queen Mother's belly
"Your Majesty, I can only use one last shot. After this shot, the Queen Mother will be able to wake up for a cup of tea. After this cup of tea, she will be powerless to recover."
"If the Empress Dowager doesn't take this last injection, she might still live for a few more days, but she might remain in a coma." Zhang Yuanpan truthfully described the Empress Dowager's current condition.
After hearing what Zhang Yuanpan said, the emperor became hesitant.
Although he has always been suspicious by nature and was ruthless in dealing with his enemies, his heart was full of contradictions and struggles when he faced the unconscious old woman - his biological mother.
After hearing what Judge Zhang said, he really couldn't bear to use the so-called last needle.
However, at this moment, a clear female voice suddenly came from the crowd: "Your Majesty, I heard that Miss Jiang is a skilled doctor and has cured many difficult diseases..."
The person who spoke was Lu Jialing, who had just performed with Jiang Yimo.
After this reminder, the Emperor, Zhang Yuanpan and others suddenly woke up from their dreams and remembered that Jiang Yimo was also proficient in medicine!
And her medical skills were so superb that they were astonishing. At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Jiang Yimo.
When Jiang Yimo faced this sudden roll call, she couldn't help but feel a ripple in her heart.
Originally, she wanted to keep a low profile and did not think about attracting too much attention. She thought that as long as Feng Wuhen did not take the initiative to ask her to treat the empress dowager, she would just remain invisible. However, she forgot that there was also Lu Jialing, who had just had a feud with her, present. It was she who reminded the emperor and the others.
Now that she was being mentioned in public, she could no longer hide her shortcomings.
However, her calm face did not show any panic, but instead revealed calmness and composure. Then, she slowly stood out from the crowd.
"Your Majesty, if you trust me, I can take the Empress Dowager's pulse." Jiang Yimo said softly, her eyes firm and confident.
The emperor stared at the young face in front of him, and a sense of trust surged in his heart.
He nodded and said, "Okay, come up and show it to the Queen Mother."
With the emperor's permission, Jiang Yimo stepped forward and stepped lightly onto the main stage.
She came to the empress dowager, squatted down, stretched out her slender and white hands, gently placed them on the empress dowager's wrists, and began to carefully take the empress dowager's pulse.
As time passed, the entire banquet hall was silent. Everyone held their breath, nervously watching Jiang Yimo's every move.
Finally, a minute later, Jiang Yimo slowly withdrew her hand, stood up, and reported to the emperor with a smile: "Your Majesty, there is something growing in the Queen Mother's belly."
These words exploded in the hall like thunder, shocking everyone.
Only the Emperor and Zhang Yuanpan had relatively calm expressions, because Zhang Yuanpan had long ago told the Emperor that something had grown in the Empress Dowager's stomach, and it was impossible to remove it with their current medical skills.
Although the emperor was not shocked, he still asked hurriedly: "Can that thing still be healed?"
Hearing this, Jiang Yimo frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, she replied: "I dare not say yet. According to the pulse, this thing is like a tumor. The specific situation needs further observation and diagnosis."
As soon as she finished speaking, the emperor frowned again, and his voice was filled with anxiety: "Then do you have any way to wake the queen mother up now?"
Jiang Yimo nodded slightly, indicating that she had a solution.
"Have!"
The emperor felt relieved when he saw this, but at the same time he was a little confused and asked, "Is it the last needle that Zhang Yuanpan mentioned?"
Jiang Yimo shook her head and answered firmly, "No, I have a unique acupuncture method that can stimulate the Queen Mother's acupuncture points and awaken her consciousness. This acupuncture method will not overly consume the Queen Mother's energy and spirit, but will allow her to gradually regain consciousness."
As soon as she finished speaking, the emperor felt relieved, as if a huge rock pressing on his heart had finally fallen to the ground.
He thought to himself that the medical skills of the imperial doctors in his palace were far inferior to those of Jiang Yimo.
These so-called imperial physicians are nothing but mediocre and incompetent people who have only a nominal title.
"Okay, then use your acupuncture techniques to treat the Queen Mother."
"Someone, come! Escort the Queen Mother back to Yongshou Palace."
After the emperor gave the order, he immediately added: "Miss Jiang, you can come with us. This is the end of tonight's Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet."
Hearing this, Jiang Yimo bowed helplessly and said, "I will obey your command!"
Immediately afterwards, a group of palace maids in gorgeous costumes and imperial doctors with serious expressions, carefully assisted the empress dowager as she slowly boarded an exquisite and gorgeous sedan chair.
Then, the sedan chair was steadily lifted up and headed towards Yongshou Palace. Seeing this, Jiang Yimo followed.
At the same time, the emperor, Feng Wuhen, several other princes, Princess Cangyue and others followed Jiang Yimo closely and went to Yongshou Palace together.
After arriving at Yongshou Palace, the well-trained palace servants gently placed the empress dowager on her comfortable and soft couch and let her half-lean back to rest.
After receiving the emperor's order, Jiang Yimo quickly took out a bulging cloth bag from her wide cuffs.
When I opened it, there was a large bag of silver needles inside.
Then, she walked swiftly to the side of the Queen Mother, sat down, and began to use her superb medical skills - acupuncture to save lives.
Jiang Yimo first skillfully inserted a silver needle into the top of the empress dowager's head, and then accurately inserted acupuncture into other key acupuncture points on the empress dowager's head one by one.
Her technique was so skillful that she could accurately hit each acupuncture point on the empress dowager's head without even checking carefully.
Everyone finally spent a long quarter of an hour in anxious waiting. Everyone was on pins and needles, with their hearts filled with uneasiness and worry.
Jiang Yimo remained calm and composed. She gently picked up a silver needle and carefully pulled it out of the empress dowager's body.
As the silver needles were removed one by one, everyone's eyes were fixed on the Queen Mother's face, expecting a miracle to happen.
At the moment when the last silver needle left the Queen Mother's body, the old emperor could not wait to ask: "Jiang girl, the silver needles have been taken out, why hasn't the Queen Mother woken up yet?"
There was a hint of urgency and worry in his voice.
When Jiang Yimo heard this, she couldn't help but roll her eyes inwardly.
However, facing the emperor's questioning, she suppressed her inner dissatisfaction and replied calmly: "Your Majesty, please be patient and wait for a while. The Queen Mother will wake up safely."
