“But what if the Jiang family intends to overthrow the Emperor?” The Emperor regarded the Empress Dowager’s words as a mere metaphor, responding with a subtle smile.
“Mother, if the Jiang family seeks my downfall, they would not resort to such
rumors,” he reassured her.
The Empress Dowager persistently voiced her concerns, “But what if the Jiang
Family aims to provoke us into harming Qin Zhenzhen out of anger?”
“Their concern likely stems from the fear that Qin Zhenzhen might disrupt their plans.”
Perceiving his mother’s continued uncertainty, the Emperor pressed for more information. She decided to reveal what Qin Zhenzhen had confided. contemporary romance
“During my anger, I contemplated harming Jiang Fenglian first, which prompted Qin Zhenzhen to make those remarks..
“This is a serious matter. She wouldn’t casually make baseless accusations.”
“The knowledge she possesses has its roots in the Jiang family. It’s plausible she discerned their tampering with the emperor’s food.”
“Your Majesty, do not overlook the restlessness of your Eighth Imperial Uncle and the Jiang family’s reputation for intrigue.”
The Emperor concealed his shock at this revelation.
When the Empress Dowager and the Emperor reappeared before the assembly, Imperial Concubine Jiang paled visibly upon seeing the Empress Dowager’s expression.
“Qin Zhenzhen, approach and examine the Emperor’s pulse.”
Qin Zhenzhen stepped forward and, after a moment, released the Emperor’s hand.
“I have diagnosed the Emperor with a deficiency of yang energy.”
“Physiologically, individuals with a deficiency of yang energy tend to be heat-prone and may also experience increased susceptibility to desires.” The room fell silent as everyone absorbed Qin Zhenzhen’s audacious statements.
Qin Zhenzhen’s courage in speaking so boldly was undeniable.
The Emperor’s countenance darkened significantly, though Qin Zhenzhen remained resolute.
The Empress Dowager hadn’t anticipated such a diagnosis either, and her expression grew somber. If Qin Zhenzhen’s assessment proved accurate, it would be a significant blow to the group of imperial physicians.
Suppressing his anger, the Emperor fixed a piercing glare on Qin Zhenzhen.
“Explain to me why individuals with a deficiency of yang energy tend to be inclined toward lust.”
He had every intention of exposing her deceit, and if she failed to provide a credible explanation, she would surely regret her words.
Unperturbed, Qin Zhenzhen responded calmly, “People with a deficiency of yang energy experience a false sense of arousal.”
“Such individuals often exhibit faster heartbeats and elevated blood pressure, akin to hypertension. These are compensatory responses.”
“In simpler terms, those with a deficiency of yang energy may appear strong on the surface, but it’s a deceptive strength.”
“If one indulges these false sensations, their lifespan will significantly diminish.”
The Emperor’s face flushed with embarrassment. Qin Zhenzhen’s audacity seemed to know no bounds.
The other imperial physicians nodded in agreement, acknowledging the accuracy of Qin Zhenzhen’s explanation.
Upon the Empress Dowager’s insistence, Imperial Physician Yang was tasked with examining the Emperor’s pulse.
After a moment, Imperial Physician Yang released the Emperor’s hand but hesitated, unsure whether to share his findings in front of the assembled audience, as it could potentially embarrass the Emperor.
The Empress Dowager warned Imperial Physician Yang, “If there’s anything wrong with His Majesty’s body, no matter what, you’re not allowed to hide it!”
“Those who intentionally conceal this will face severe consequences!” The decree was clear and harsh.
Imperial Physician Yang had no recourse but to divulge the truth. “Your Highness, it is indeed true that the Emperor has a deficiency of yang energy…”
The Empress Dowager erupted in fury. “You, imperial physicians, are utterly incompetent! So many of you have attended to the Emperor, yet none of you noticed his deficiency of yang energy?”
Imperial Physician Yang weakly defended himself, saying, “I did hint at it to the Emperor once, but he did not take it seriously.”
“At that time, the Emperor’s condition was not particularly severe, so I prescribed a remedy without advising abstinence..”
