363 Hard Work
The eunuch did not know how to answer. He nodded with difficulty.
He first sent a guard to tell the emperor about Yuan Hui asking Ning Yue to bring the guards into the palace. The emperor did not say anything. Today was indeed a special situation.
After Ning Yue entered the palace, she found out what had happened.
She had just arrived at the emperor’s imperial study when she heard the emperor scolding, “What are you doing? You’re the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, and you’re actually telling me that you don’t know how to get military rations? And you, you’re the Minister of Revenue. You actually came to ask me if I can give more money to the Ministry of Revenue? The entire national treasury of the Great Yun Nation is managed by the Ministry of Revenue, and you still reached out to ask me for money? Also, you’re a general. You don’t even know how to lead troops to war. Go to hell!”
After the emperor finished cursing, there was a commotion. It was unknown what he was smashing.
Ning Yue was not in a hurry to enter. Instead, she stopped outside the study and said to the eunuch, “Is the emperor having a meeting?”
“Princess, wait a moment. I’ll report your arrival to the emperor now.” With that, the eunuch walked towards the imperial study so quickly that Ning Yue couldn’t stop him.
What she meant was that if the emperor was talking about state affairs, she would go to the Empress Dowager first.
Before she could finish speaking, the eunuch entered the study.
Not long after the eunuch entered, the ministers who had been scolded by the emperor walked out. When they saw Ning Yue, they bowed briefly and left in a hurry.
“Princess, please.” The eunuch invited Ning Yue in with a smile.
Ning Yue entered the imperial study and saw that the emperor’s expression was very ugly. His lips were slightly black, as if he had been poisoned.
She hurriedly went forward to take the emperor’s pulse. The emperor was shocked by Ning Yue’s actions.
“What’s wrong?” the emperor asked Ning Yue.
“Your expression doesn’t look good. Let me take a look at you.” Ning Yue didn’t dare to tell the emperor directly. His expression looked like he had been poisoned.
The emperor did not say anything and let Ning Yue take his pulse.
There was really something wrong with the emperor’s pulse! Ning Yue’s heart trembled.
Realizing that Ning Yue’s expression was not right, the emperor hurriedly asked, “What’s wrong? What’s wrong?”
“Emperor, have you been in charge of the court these days? Didn’t you ask the crown prince to help you previously?” Ning Yue retracted her hand and asked the emperor with a smile.
The emperor was confused. “Yes, but I make all the important decisions.”
War was a very important thing!
“Emperor, my master said something very well. Children and grandchildren come with their own blessings. The Crown Prince is the heir you personally chose. I believe the Crown Prince will definitely not let you down.”
Ning Yue’s words dissatisfied the emperor. He had the final say in what his country did.
However, because Ning Yue was Gu Yu’s disciple and the princess of Russia, he did not flare up on the spot.
“What are you getting at?” the emperor asked.
“Emperor, you might be unhappy with what I’m about to say, but please believe that I’m doing this for your own good. Your body has already reached its limit. If you continue to work so hard, I think you don’t have much time left,” Ning Yue said.
The emperor almost fainted from Ning Yue’s words. He was still fine. Why was there not much time left?
He had just scolded the ministers badly. Why was he about to die?
Ning Yue knew that the emperor did not believe her. She pretended to take out a mirror from her pocket, but in fact, she took out a mirror from her space.
“You can look at your expression,” Ning Yue said.
The emperor was very surprised to see the mirror. The mirrors they used were not as clear as the one in Ning Yue’s hand.
He was about to ask Ning Yue how she got the mirror when the emperor saw himself in it.
He was shocked by his appearance. His lips were almost black, and his face was extremely pale. No wonder Ning Yue wanted to take his pulse as soon as she entered.
Didn’t he look like a poisoned person?
“Am I poisoned?” the emperor asked Ning Yue.
Ning Yue shook her head. “You weren’t poisoned. You worked too hard and your body is at its limit. Is your chest a little stuffy?”
The emperor nodded. This also confirmed Ning Yue’s diagnosis.
In modern terms, the emperor was about to have a heart attack. His chest was tight, his lips were black, and his face was pale. They were all signs of a heart attack.
When she had just taken the emperor’s pulse, she had realized that his pulse was beating very weakly. If his pulse was beating weakly, it meant that the blood supply to his heart was not enough.
If the emperor continued to work hard, he would die suddenly.
