The empress dowager was already being supported onto a cushion as the imperial physician approached with a medicine box.

The empress dowager was already close to sixty years old. In this era, sixty years was already a long life. If there were no problems with her body, then that would be abnormal.

When the imperial physician saw that the empress dowager was lying on a soft patch with her eyes rolled up, he rushed forward to pinch her.

However, it was better if she didn't pinch him. The moment she pinch him, the empress dowager's entire body began to twitch, as if she'd gone insane and scared him.

"What's going on?" Baili Yao was very worried.

The imperial physician was so scared that he broke out in cold sweat.

The empress dowager had a bit of a high status, so there shouldn't be too much of a problem recuperating. Just what was going on? Even the imperial physician was stupefied.

All of a sudden, the imperial physicians of the imperial hospitals were at a loss for what to do. They couldn't find the cause of the trouble, so how could they dare to make wild guesses?

"This humble subject, this humble subject also does not know …" The empress dowager's symptoms looked frightening, but her pulse pattern was normal. This was also the thing that caused the imperial physicians to be the most indecisive. If they couldn't hear her pulse, how could they dare to randomly use medicine?

The imperial physician wasn't able to make a decision, and the empress dowager's symptoms didn't seem to ease either. Everyone fell silent, trembling with fear, not daring to make a sound.

"Zhen usually raised you trash. If anything happens to the empress dowager, your crimes are unforgivable!"

"Your majesty, please forgive me. Your majesty, please forgive me …"

Baili Xing turned around and glanced at Bai Zhiling who was sitting motionlessly in the middle of the room. He frowned and knelt in front of Baili Yao.

"Royal Father, this son has something to report."

"Speak."

Bai Zhiling, who was picking up the teacup, felt her heart jump. She subconsciously looked at Baili Xing.

"Royal Father, when Zhiling was young, she was taught by a master and learned a lot of medical skills. I humbly request that Royal Father allow Zhiling to treat Royal Grandmother's illness."

Everyone present was shocked by Baili Xing's words.

Bai Zhiling was so angry that she almost broke the porcelain cup in her hands.

Damn Baili Xing, so you were waiting for her here!

"What did you say?" Baili Yao came back to his senses and his expression became even more unsightly.

"Royal Father, I can prove that Zhiling's medical skills are outstanding. Please agree, Royal Father. Royal Grandmother's situation is critical …"

The empress dowager was already foaming at the mouth while the imperial physician was helpless against her. Baili Xing had almost blurted out the words' a dead horse is a dead horse! '

Seeing this, Bai Tinglan also hurriedly stood out.

"Royal Father, elder sister's medical skills are indeed outstanding. I hope that Royal Father can give elder sister a chance to save Royal Grandmother." If they couldn't treat her, Bai Zhiling would be in for a ride of misfortune!

Baili Yao looked at the empress dowager, who was already short of breath, and frowned.

"Alright, let her try. If she fails …"

"Reporting to Royal Father, even the imperial physicians of this hospital weren't able to treat me. With this son's clumsy medical skills, I really didn't dare to use them to delay my royal grandmother's illness." Before Baili Yao could finish his words, Bai Zhiling had already stood in the main hall.

Baili Xing wanted to use her to rope in the Empress Dowager and show his face in front of Baili Yao, but that would depend on whether she was willing or not!

Baili Xing was a little angry at Bai Zhiling for not cooperating, but he had to say, "Zhiling, Grandma needs you now. If you can cure her, Granny will definitely remember you."

It was a good thing if she had the empress dowager to support Princess Yun, who had no reputation and was not favored by others … It was enough for the empress dowager to owe her a favor.

"The imperial physicians are proficient in medicine, but this son of mine has only scratched the surface. If I can't …" If he couldn't cure her, he couldn't ask about her crimes!

He actually still dared to threaten him!

Baili Yao clenched his fists tightly. If it wasn't for these useless imperial physicians, would he have let Bai Zhiling treat the empress dowager!?

"Zhiling, you can go and treat my Royal Grandmother. Royal Father will not blame you for your filial piety."

Bai Zhilingzhi stared at the floor in silence.

Baili Yao heaved a sigh of relief. A moment later, he said, "Well, just focus on treating me!"

"It's Royal Father."

Bai Zhiling walked to the empress dowager under everyone's gaze.

When she saw that the empress dowager was cramping, she frowned slightly.

"Royal Father should tell everyone to spread out. It's better if they don't surround us here."

Baili Yao waved his hand and made the people at the front retreat behind him. He stood at the front to see if Bai Zhiling had the ability to help the empress dowager recover.

Bai Zhiling stepped forward to let the empress dowager hear her pulse.

In order to prevent the officials from seeing the empress dowager's ugly behavior, Baili Yao had already ordered people to move the screen over to block her from the back. The people sitting in the hall could only faintly see a few figures, which made them even more curious.

There were only a few people in the capital who had not heard of Bai Zhiling's reputation. To say that she knew medical skills was something few people were willing to believe.

Bai Zhiling examined the empress dowager's basic situation. Like the imperial physician's diagnosis, she didn't find anything amiss.

It's not sick, but it's symptomatic.

It was indeed a thorny problem.

On her second examination of the Empress Dowager's body, she suddenly discovered that the little crescent moon on the fingernail of her right hand was a bluish-black color. Because it was too light, no one would notice such small details.

She opened the imperial physician's medicine box, took out a very short silver needle, and pierced it into the empress dowager's finger while avoiding Baili Yao's gaze.

When the silver needle was pulled out, a strange color could be seen on its surface – it was poison.

"What did you see?" Seeing that Bai Zhiling was still half-kneeling on the ground, Baili Yao said impatiently.

Bai Zhiling slowly raised the empress dowager's finger. Royal Father, my royal grandmother was poisoned. "

"What did you say?" Poison? " Baili Yao's face instantly turned dark.

He really had the guts to poison the empress dowager at his palace banquet!

"That's right, it is indeed poison, but it is not fatal. After consuming the antidote for six hours after being poisoned, there will be no harm." I wonder if there are any permanent antidote pills in the Imperial Hospital? "

The head of the hospital stepped forward. "To reply wangfei, the most common antidote is available."

"May I trouble the imperial physician to give it to the empress dowager?"

Baili Yao quickly sent someone to bring the item over.

A quarter of an hour after the empress dowager consumed the antidote pill, the convulsions gradually stopped. Not long after, they returned to normal.

"Muhou …"

The empress dowager looked at Baili Yao in confusion. Your Majesty, what's going on? "

"Does Imperial Mother still feel uncomfortable in any way?" Baili Yao had the empress dowager sit down on a chair.

The empress dowager paused before replying, "I just feel a little stuffy in my chest. There's nothing else."

"Your Majesty, what happened?" The empress dowager wasn't stupid. She could tell that something was wrong with everyone's expressions, but she couldn't remember anything at all.

"Muhou, someone poisoned you!"

"What!?" The empress dowager was also stunned before growing angry.

"Imperial Mother, don't worry. This Emperor will definitely find out who the mastermind is. Someone, seal the palace doors. No one is allowed to walk around without my orders, and no one is allowed to leave the palace! "

Such a ruckus diluted the impact Bai Zhiling saving the empress dowager's life had on everyone.

Baili Yao looked towards Bai Zhiling after giving the order. Tell me, what poison is it, and how did it get infected? "
