Chapter 177: Pulled out and buried?
Yunsheng walked around for a long time but couldn't find Chu Ci. Finally, he had no choice but to go to Chu Ci's yard to check. He wanted to know if that was the blood vomited by the princess.
But when he arrived at Chu Ci's courtyard and asked, he found out that the princess had been summoned into the palace by the emperor.
He guessed that his master was there too, so he hurried over.
As luck would have it, as soon as I came in, I saw Lin Feng performing monkey tricks.
Yunsheng quietly slipped behind Lin Feng and patted him gently, "What are you doing? Are you performing monkey tricks? Is this your newest way to make the master happy? I caught you."
Yunsheng was still looking happy, but unexpectedly, the anxious Lin Feng slapped his hand aside and said, "Stop it, don't you see what time it is?"
Only then did Yunsheng notice that there were tiny beads of sweat on Lin Feng's forehead.
Yunsheng went up and began to touch Lin Feng's forehead. "Do you have a fever? It's so cold, and you're wearing only thin clothes, why are you sweating?"
Lin Feng was angry and pushed Yun Sheng, "Stop it, something happened, I'm anxious."
Lin Feng pointed inside the hall, "The princess is inside. She was extremely pale when she came here. She couldn't even walk to the hall. She had to be carried by two maids."
Yunsheng grabbed Lin Feng's collar, his face livid, "What did you just say?"
Seeing him like this, Lin Feng paused and said, "When I came here, the princess seemed to be in poor health. I don't know what happened, and her face looked very bad."
Yunsheng thought about it and realized that if the person he was investigating was really the princess, then the princess had just vomited blood for some unknown reason. She had just been injured a few days ago and had not yet recovered.
Yunsheng figured it out and was about to rush into the hall, but Lin Feng quickly stopped him, "What's wrong with you? What kind of place is this? Do you think you can break in? General Dingbei and many ministers are inside. Are you looking for death?"
Yunsheng shook his head. "No, the princess must have been seriously injured. She just vomited blood and is in danger now."
Yunsheng thought about it and decided to go in.
Lin Feng grabbed her and said, "Shut up and listen to my analysis. From what I know, the princess's medical skills are not simple. If she really can't hold on any longer, she should tell you. Besides, the master is still in there, so there shouldn't be any trouble."
The more Lin Feng spoke, the more he felt that he was right. The princess should know him best. Now that she has chosen to go in, there shouldn't be any big problems.
But they forgot that Chu Ci was alone at this moment, and if she didn't go in, she would be guilty of the capital crime.
At this time, Chu Ci entered the hall with the help of two little maids.
As soon as she entered, Chu Ci saw that the hall was full of people. She couldn't help but feel lucky that she came in. Otherwise, the emperor would lose face in front of so many people. If that happened, she would not even know how she died.
Chu Ci and her maid came forward and knelt down to pay their respects. "Chu Ci pays her respects to the Emperor."
Chu Ci's words made the originally bustling hall suddenly quiet down.
The emperor felt that there was something wrong in Chu Ci's words.
Another person who could sense something was wrong was Prince Rui, who was standing with a little girl.
He looked at Chu Ci in confusion. How come he was his father a few days ago, but now he has become the emperor?
Besides, she doesn't look very good.
"Get up, Xiaoci, your injury hasn't healed yet?" The emperor glanced at his son who was still standing beside him. Seeing his puzzled face, he knew that he had not visited her for some time.
Chu Ci forced a smile, and two maids helped her up. "Your Majesty, I'm fine. I wonder what the Emperor wants me to do?"
As soon as Chu Ci came in, Cang Mo's eyes were glued to Chu Ci, but Chu Ci didn't even glance back at her.
She is not like the other little girls who can be coaxed around by a few nice words. What she wants is behavior and action. But it is very simple. In the past few days, she almost lost her life many times. The other party was busy with other girls and had no time to look at her. Why bother with such a relationship?
The emperor looked at General Dingbei, who was still lying on the side, and explained, "Xiaoci, I heard that you are very good at medicine and can detoxify. I want you to help see General Dingyuan. The imperial doctors have seen all of them, and none of them can cure him."
Chu Ci turned around and looked at General Dingyuan. Just as she was about to move her feet, two maids tugged at her sleeves worriedly.
Chu Ci patted their hands comfortingly and smiled soothingly, "I'm fine."
Chu Ci was helped over by the maid, and as soon as she squatted down, she felt dizzy all over.
Chu Ci took a long time to calm himself down before he began to check General Dingyuan's injuries and then took his pulse. After Chu Ci finished taking the pulse, he narrowed his eyes slightly and finally shook his head slightly.
"Your Majesty, this injury is not incurable, but the wound contains a deadly poison. After such a long delay, the poison has already entered his heart meridians. There is no hope of recovery."
After Chu Ci finished speaking, he leaned on the little maid and rested for a long time. Finally, he took out a bright red pill from his arms and swallowed it. Only then did he feel a little stronger.
"Your Majesty, is there anything else you need?" Chu Ci felt that he might not be able to hold on for much longer and wanted to leave.
The emperor looked at the little girl standing next to Cang Mo. He originally wanted Chu Ci to check her out, but seeing Chu Ci's physical condition, the emperor hesitated.
General Dingyuan saw that the emperor hesitated, and thought about his own failing health and the fact that he only had this one daughter left.
"You should go down and rest for a while. Take the sedan chair. If you are not feeling well, just rest well at home."
Chu Ci nodded. Just as the maid was about to leave with her help, General Dingyuan grabbed Chu Ci's skirt and said, "County Lady Chaoyang, can you please save my child? This is the only one left in my entire General Dingyuan Mansion. Please, County Lady Chaoyang, save him."
Chu Ci stopped, glanced at the man who was tugging at her dress, and brushed him away with her hand. Then she looked at the headmaster who was kneeling beside her, "May I ask, headmaster, if I don't take care of General Dingyuan's daughter today, will she have to be taken out and buried tonight?"
As soon as Chu Ci finished speaking, the hall became even quieter. No one expected that Chu Ci's words would be so sharp.
The head of the academy glanced at the emperor, and only when he saw him nod did he dare to speak, "To Princess Chaoyang, although the young lady of General Dingyuan's mansion is poisoned, she should be fine after holding on for a while."
Chu Ci glanced at General Dingyuan coldly, "General Dingyuan is really a good father. Why don't you take a good look at it, General Dingyuan? Is it your daughter who can't leave this hall, or am I the one who can't leave this hall?"
"What does General Dingyuan want to do? Don't you even bother to hide your thoughts?"
General Dingyuan blushed with shame. He never expected that a little girl could see through his inner thoughts.
