Su Xiaoxiao and the others set off from the peach forest at dawn.

In order to take care of Su Xuan, the carriage did not travel fast. It only arrived at the Protector Duke’s Estate in the evening.

Eunuch Cheng lingered at the door.

His eyes lit up when he saw the carriage of the Protector Duke.

Just as he was about to welcome them, he saw Xiao Zhonghua and Jing Yi escorting Su Xiaoxiao over.

A trace of surprise flashed across his eyes as he bowed. “Your Highness An,

Young Marquis Jing.”

Eunuch Cheng was someone beside the Empress Dowager. His appearance here was most likely instigated by the Empress Dowager.

Xiao Zhonghua asked, “Does Grandmother have any instructions?”

Eunuch Cheng said worriedly, “His Majesty had a stroke! When the Empress Dowager received the news, she hurriedly rushed over from the nunnery. When she heard that Madam Wei had already returned to the capital, she hurriedly asked me to invite Madam Wei to the palace to treat His Majesty!”

Princess Hui An’s face turned pale. “What did you say about my father just

Eunuch Cheng repeated, “His Majesty had a stroke.”

Xiao Zhonghua frowned. “When I entered the palace three days ago, Father was still fine.”

Eunuch Cheng said anxiously, “Just these two days…”

Eunuch Cheng came over halfway. He had yet to return to the palace to see Emperor Jing Xuan and had only heard the report from the guards in the palace.

Xiao Zhonghua turned to look at Su Xiaoxiao, who was lifting the curtain. “Can your body hold on?”

He thought that Su Xiaoxiao had searched all night.

Su Xiaoxiao said without changing her expression, “It’s a little hard, but I slept in the carriage just now and recovered some strength.”

What a joke. Emperor Jing Xuan had a stroke. She had to go take a look.

Su Xiaoxiao said to the old man, “Senior, my fourth cousin will stay in your courtyard first. Please treat him.”

The main thing was to keep an eye on him and not let him run away as soon as he woke up.

Yes, the Head of the Secret Service should not be able to escape the five fingers of the senior big boss.

Su Ergou called for a servant in the residence and carried a stretcher to send Su Xuan to the courtyard where the old man was temporarily staying.

Princess Hui An was worried about him and her father, who had a stroke in the palace.

She did not understand why her father suddenly had a stroke.

To be honest, Su Xiaoxiao felt quite curious.

Previously, she and the imperial physician had reminded Emperor Jing Xuan not to work too hard or be too agitated to avoid a stroke.

Logically speaking, since Emperor Jing Xuan cherished his life so much, he should be very careful.

Not to mention Su Xiaoxiao, even Su Cheng probably didn’t expect that a small prank of his would cause Emperor Jing Xuan to have a stroke.

Su Xiaoxiao, Xiao Zhonghua, and Princess Hui An went to Emperor Jing Xuan’s bedroom.

The imperial physicians were all present.

Consort Xian, Consort Zhao, Consort Yu, and the others guarded the door of the sleeping hall.

The Empress Dowager, the Empress, and Princess Jingning accompanied Emperor Jing Xuan’s bed.

Xiao Duye and Xiao Shunyang also came.

Although they were princes, they were not born by the first wife. Without summons, they could only wait outside the hall like the concubines.

Seeing Third Brother come over with Eunuch Cheng, Su Xiaoxiao, and Hui An, the two of them looked a little puzzled. Eunuch Cheng said, “Empress Dowager, Madam Wei is here.”

The Empress Dowager said, “Come in quickly!”

Princess Hui An followed.

She was a princess and had nothing to do with fighting for the throne, so no one had any objections.

“Grandmother, Mother.”

She choked and bowed to the Empress Dowager and Empress.

The Empress Dowager nodded.

The Empress said, “Hui An has grown up. Hurry up and get up.”

In the past, Princess Hui An would pounce on Emperor Jing Xuan and cry.

Now, she had also become cautious.

“Thank you, Mother.”

Princess Hui An stood up.

The Empress Dowager looked at Su Xiaoxiao’s pregnancy and said in shame, “I forgot that you’re pregnant.”

“I’m fine,” Su Xiaoxiao said.

After not seeing her for a few months, the Empress Dowager had aged a lot.

Everyone understood the reason in their hearts. There was no need to say it.

Su Xiaoxiao took Emperor Jing Xuan’s pulse and blood pressure. She looked at his pupils and asked Eunuch Fu about the exact situation at that time. She also listened to the imperial physicians’ rescue plan.

The final conclusion was that he had indeed had a stroke, and it was a big stroke caused by diarrhea, causing him to be unable to move his limbs and even have difficulty swallowing.

There was no problem with the imperial physicians’ resuscitation; they saved his life, but it was impossible for him to recover.

In addition, the immortal pills he took also caused irreversible damage to his internal organs.

“How is it?”

The Empress Dowager asked nervously.

Su Xiaoxiao told him her diagnosis and repeatedly reminded that the imperial physicians that they had already done their best. If not for the imperial physicians, His Majesty would have died long ago.

The imperial physicians kneeling on the ground were grateful.

In the past, they had made things difficult for Madam Wei. They did not expect that one day, Madam Wei would disregard the past and speak up for them. The Empress Dowager closed her eyes in pain. “Get up.”

The imperial physicians kowtowed in unison. “Thank you, Empress Dowager!”

The imperial physicians helped each other stand up. Although they did not say anything, they all bowed to Su Xiaoxiao.

The Empress Dowager held Su Xiaoxiao’s hand. “Tell me the truth. Is His

Majesty really unable to recover? What about the morning court a.s.sembly?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Empress Dowager, please appoint the crown prince as soon as possible.”

She came with the intention of being an evil doctor, but she realized that there was no room for her to use it.

Emperor Jing Xuan had really played himself out.

Hearing such bad news, the Empress Dowager’s heart ached.

“Investigate His Majesty’s meals thoroughly! I want to know what caused His Majesty’s diarrhea!”

It wasn’t his food. The imperial kitchen had records and there would be young eunuchs testing the dishes.

The little eunuch ate all the food that Emperor Jing Xuan had eaten, but the little eunuch was fine.

“Has His Majesty taken medicine recently?” Su Xiaoxiao reminded the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager looked at Eunuch Fu.

Eunuch Fu said, “His Majesty has been taking the pills refined by the Imperial Preceptor recently. No one has tested the pills.”

At first, there were people who tried. Later on, Emperor Jing Xuan trusted the State Preceptor too much. In addition, the State Preceptor boasted that the pill was unique in the world, so Emperor Jing Xuan could not bear to waste it on the little eunuch.

The Empress Dowager hurriedly asked Eunuch Cheng and Eunuch Fu to go to the Daoist temple and bring over the golden pills that the Imperial Preceptor had refined for Emperor Jing Xuan.

Su Xiaoxiao tested it with a silver needle. It was not poisonous.

The laxative was not poison. It was not surprising that poison wasn’t detected.

The Empress Dowager called over a young eunuch and asked Su Xiaoxiao to cut a small piece for him.

After the young eunuch ate it, he immediately ran to the toilet.

This portion was only to clear the intestines and would not cause any danger to one’s life. However, if two big ones were taken, it would not be something an ordinary person could withstand.

The Empress Dowager immediately arrested the State Preceptor.

The Imperial Preceptor shouted, “Empress Dowager! I didn’t drug His Majesty!

I’m innocent!”

He was really wronged!

Who the h.e.l.l framed him?

What the h.e.l.l!

Su Xiaoxiao was deep in thought. Why did this colorless and tasteless laxative look so much like hers…

“Lock him up in the Dali Temple! Let the Dali Temple punish him severely!

Let’s see who instructed him behind the scenes!”

The Empress Dowager did not believe that a little state preceptor who had just a.s.sumed his role would have the guts to harm the emperor of a country.

He must have been instructed by someone!

The Imperial Preceptor was escorted to the Dali Temple by the imperial guards.

A country could not live without a ruler for a day.

Moreover, the Great Zhou was fighting with Northern Yan. Once the news of Emperor Jing Xuan spread, it was very likely to raise the morale of Northern

Yan.

It was time to appoint a crown prince.

But who should be appointed?
