Chapter 16 Save Him Or Not
Chapter 16 Save Him Or Not
The Retired Emperor looked at the crowd of people on their knees. His lips twitched, but he didn't say a
word. He then sighed softly, looking very reluctant to leave them.
Yuan Qingling understood that they were kneeling here to wait for the Retired Emperor to die. When
they just came in, he seemed to be dying. They thought it would take longer.
But now, he didn’t seem to be dying very soon. His breathing was much stronger.
Perhaps the drugs had worked.
The Retired Emperor had heart disease and once had a stroke.
Given that history, he could be having heart failure.
Heart failure, difficult breathing... There was dopamine in her medicine box.
Yuan Qingling had many random thoughts. She was still trying to recover from the shock of dog
language, and now she might have to save a life. She was smart enough to know that no one would
believe her and let her give the Retired Emperor treatment.
So she might have to watch him die right in front of her,
which was not easy for a healthcare worker.
After kneeling for about fifteen minutes, she began to shiver. The kneeling posture was very
uncomfortable and strange, because her body was numb and she didn’t want to abrade her wound,
which would cause her injury to be more serious.
She secretly looked at Yu Wenhao next to her. He knelt straight and she could see the clear profile of
his face. He seemed to be very sad. He was his grandfather after all.
Emperor Mingyuan and the chief doctor walked out and talked outside the curtain.
Yuan Qingling heard a few vague words. Emperor Mingyuan could tell that the Retired Emperor's
condition had improved, so he asked the chief whether he should take some drugs again, but the chief
doctor said he would pass away within an hour or so.
When Emperor Mingyuan came in again, he ordered someone to put down the golden veil in-layer as
well as the dark veil out-layer. Then he groaned, "Everyone, say goodbye to your grandfather."
The Queen Mother wept again, looking helpless and mournful. The Empress sat beside her, holding
her hand tightly. They stared at the man on the bed and didn’t know what to do. He had been with her
for almost a lifetime.
The Queen Mother was persuaded to get out of the room, and the Emperor helped her sit down. As
soon as she sat down, she almost collapsed.
The first ones to go in were Prince Rui and his wife.
Prince Rui was the eldest son of the Retired Emperor, a biological brother of Emperor Mingyuan, born
by the Queen Mother.
They went in, kowtowed, and retreated after a few words with the Retired Emperor. When they came
out, their eyes were red, but they fought back the tears.
After that, Prince Bao and his wife came in. They also came out after they send consolations to the
Retired Emperor.
Yuan Qingling thought to herself that it took about three minutes for everyone to say goodbye. If
dopamine was injected intravenously into the Retired Emperor, the whole process would take at least
five minutes for the treatment of intractable heart failure.
In other words, as long as she could have five minutes inside, she could administer the drug and save
his life.
She was hesitating because if she did, she would take a huge risk which might her life.
If she didn’t, he would die.
She didn't struggle with this question for so long. For a doctor, there was only one answer to this
question.
The problem was that she was going in with Yu Wenhao. Yu Wenhao would see her administering the
medicine. If he stopped her or called out, all her efforts would be wasted.
Hypnosis? Anesthetics?
Hypnosis was impossible because she wasn’t proficient.
Anesthetics... Was there any in her box?
She lowered her head and took out the box from her sleeve pocket under the cover of her wide sleeve. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Then she opened it and searched for Anesthetics. On the bottom layer, there was a small bottle of
Ketamine.
She immediately felt relieved.
