Detective Ghost Empress

306 Golden glory

” Your majesty, are you okay?”

” Your majesty!”

When the people in the room saw Zhai Tianyu cover his mouth and hurl out the content that he had just drank, they all thought that he was poisoned.

Especially, The grand dowager Empress—— last night her nephew brought a very potent poison to show off to her, he even used it in front of her to show her how good it was, what if the remnants of that poison were left behind?

The Grand Dowager Empress was worried that Zhai Tianyu was poisoned and he might die any second now which was why she immediately turned to look at Imperial physician Shao and shouted at him, ” What are you doing? Watching like a mute, do you want us to make you one? See what is going on with his majesty!”

If Zhai Tianyu gets poisoned then her reign, her family and everything else will be ruined! That, Liu Dong Ming, will surely unscrupulously usurp everything!

” Yes, yes!” Imperial physician Shao snapped out of his daze and immediately started examining the Emperor, he was worried that if he was even a second late, he will be scolded by her majesty until his entire generation was begging for mercy from her. He immediately stretched his hand and then curled them around Zhai Tianyu’s wrist and started his check up but as soon as he came to a conclusion, his face could not help but go slack in disbelief.

When the Grand Dowager Empress saw such a reaction from the Imperial physician Shao, she thought that Zhai Tianyu was really poisoned. Thus, even though she was supposed to be playing the part of a ‘sick’ person, she pushed herself off the bed and then asked imperial physician Shao impatiently, ” What is the meaning of this, why are you looking at his majesty like this? Tell us what happened to his majesty?”

Ji Yu also wanted to snap at the imperial physician when she saw how sluggishly he was working but she refrained herself since she was more worried about Zhai Tianyu who was covering his mouth and clutching his stomach. She did not know that her father brought poison to show off to her grandaunt, but she did know that everything in the room of her grandaunt was not as harmless as it seemed which was why she was really worried as well.

.....

” His majesty….” Imperial physician Shao who did not know how to say the truth closed his eyes and then dragged his words causing Ji Yu and the Grand Dowager Empress to hang on to each word of his. ” He is constipated.”

” …Con…what?” The grand dowager empress was sure she misheard the imperial physician Shao, after all, how was it possible for someone as majestic as Zhai Tianyu to be constipated, surely, the imperial physician Shao said that Zhai Tianyu was poisoned and she heard something else right? That must be it!

But as she looked at her grand niece who looked just as stumped as her, she could not help but re-evaluate what she was thinking. Was he really constipated?

Imperial physician Shao was embarrassed as well, he knew that his majesty must have done something behind the scenes but was this really necessary? After all, for the sake of being fair was it necessary for his majesty to harm his heavenly body? Couldn’t he just have followed concubine Ji to her house like the Grand Dowager Empress asked?

But no matter what he was thinking it was simply useless at the moment because his majesty had something completely different from what he was thinking planned in his head.

He closed his eyes and this time even more loudly and clearly said, ” His majesty is constipated….his stomach is runny and it seemed like he might have eaten something bad.”

Ji Yu: “....”

The Grand Dowager Empress: “....” ??

The two women did not know whether they should be embarrassed for themselves or whether they should be embarrassed for Zhai Tianyu whose loose bowels were caught in front of everyone.

Zhai Tianyu lowered his head and embarrassingly coughed with his cheeks flushed slightly as he licked his lips and said, ” I am sorry, your majesty… I was supposed to keep it all in but you know how is it… this is something… the more you hide the more it shows …” as he spoke he clenched his legs together and slowly got up from the chair on which he was sitting. ” I … I think I need to go, imperial physician Shao, please send an effective medicine to my study as soon as you can ugh…”

He did not finish what he was saying instead he clutched his stomach and turned to run out of the room, his legs still clenched tightly but as soon as he reached the threshold of the room, he turned to look at Ji Yu who was looking at him with confusion and stunned disbelief in her eyes and apologetically smiled at her before saying, ” And my dear…oh dear… concubine Ji, you should leave for your cousin’s funeral ceremony as well, pay your respects well, I think … I think it will take some time for me to arrive there!”

His face suddenly turned pale and then blue as he clenched his fists and banged them on the wall while clenching his legs even more tightly. ” In fact, it will take me a long time… don’t wait for me..” as he spoke he turned to look at Imperial Physician Shao and glared at him. ” The most potent one, you understand? The most potent one I want these heavenly bowels of mine to tighten as soon as they can!”

With that, he opened the door of the room and rushed out to the palanquin where he jumped inside and then ushered his palanquin bearers. ” Run my dear ones, run as fast as you can …to the nearest washroom lest you want to shower under the golden glory of your emperor!”

The palanquin bearers did not seem too fond of the idea of showering in the golden glory of their emperor and thus they ran as fast as they could —- so fast they have never before.
