Chapter 347 Don't cause her any trouble.
Inside the imperial study, the lights were on, and the desks were piled high with memorials.
Gao Xianzheng was reviewing the documents when he suddenly heard Eunuch Li report softly.
"Your Majesty, Xie Jingchun, the son of the Heir Apparent Xie, requests an audience late at night, saying he wants to summon the Imperial Physician."
Gao Xian stopped writing, looked up at Eunuch Li, and a bad feeling welled up in his heart.
"Who's in trouble?"
Eunuch Li respectfully replied, "Your Majesty, I heard that something happened to the Crown Prince's wife."
Gao Xian's pen trembled, and a drop of ink splashed onto the memorial, instantly creating a smudged stain.
His gaze turned cold instantly, but his expression betrayed a hint of undisguised tension.
"Qin Jiuwei... what happened to her?"
Eunuch Li replied in a low voice, "This servant does not yet know the specifics, but only that Young Master Xie rushed here to seek the imperial physician, and he even carried Young Master Xie's token."
In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Gao Xian's mind.
If it's gotten to the point where we need to call in the imperial physician, it must be a very serious matter.
Gao Xian's vision blurred for a moment, and he felt increasingly uneasy.
He stood up immediately.
No, he won't trust me!
He wants to go and see for himself!
But as soon as Gao Xian took a step, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest, as if someone had stabbed him hard with a needle.
The pain caused him to involuntarily clutch his chest, and he fell forward.
"Your Majesty!" Upon seeing this, Eunuch Li hurriedly stepped forward.
Gao Xian waved his hand, suppressing the pain in his heart: "It's alright... Prepare the carriage, I'm going to the Marquis's residence."
Upon hearing this, Eunuch Li immediately knelt on the ground, his voice trembling with anxiety.
"Your Majesty, your health is of utmost importance! The night is cold and the dew is heavy; you must not leave the palace! You are currently experiencing chest pains; you must rest well!"
"Shut up!" Gao Xian roared, enduring the pain.
After saying that, he forced himself to sit up again.
Eunuch Li was so frightened that he didn't dare to raise his head, repeatedly kowtowing: "Your Majesty, you are the supreme ruler, yet you leave the palace in the dead of night for a woman, this, this..."
He didn't dare finish speaking, but Gao Xian understood.
Yes, what reason did he have to go see her...?
They had no connection and no identity.
She is Xie Yanli's wife, not his.
Gao Xian felt a sudden weight on his shoulders, and his heart sank to the bottom as well.
Never mind, let's not cause her any more trouble.
"Leave two imperial physicians in the palace to guard the palace; send the rest to the Marquis's residence!"
He spoke in a low voice, paused after speaking, and then added a sentence.
"We must ensure her safety."
Eunuch Li immediately bowed his head and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, this servant will convey the decree immediately."
As soon as he finished speaking, Eunuch Li hurriedly left the Imperial Study.
Gao Xian sat alone in the brightly lit hall, his hands clenched so tightly they turned white as he lowered them from the armrest of the dragon throne.
Qin Mansion.
Hurried footsteps came from outside the house.
A maid immediately knelt down and said urgently, "The Marquis's residence has sent someone to fetch the imperial physician!"
"really?"
Li and Qin's father immediately stood up excitedly.
The maid nodded repeatedly, "There's no mistake, it was Xie Jingchun who went to invite her personally! Something must have happened to the Second Miss!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Li couldn't help but burst into laughter, her eyes filled with wild joy and resentment.
"Le'an! Le'an! Can you hear me! Your mother has avenged you!"
"Qin Jiuwei killed you, so I'll make her pay with her blood!"
That venomous snake nearly cost her half her fortune.
But as long as we can kill Qin Jiuwei, no amount of money is too much!
Hou House.
Xie Jing was the last to return to the mansion.
He stayed in the hall for a long time, and only after he got into the carriage did he learn that his mother had an accident.
As soon as I stepped into the room, I heard the hurried footsteps of the maids and their soft sobs.
When he saw Qin Jiuwei lying on the bed, her face pale, he couldn't help but panic.
Xie Jing immediately clenched his fist, his nails digging into his palm, almost piercing his skin.
Only then did I manage to calm myself down.
The most important thing now is to find a way to save my mother.
If the mother was poisoned, then the source of the poisoning is the most important factor.
But when he came in, he clearly saw one bonfire after another burning outside the door.
They were burning the snake's carcass.
Xie Jing pinched his palm, turned his head and ordered, "Go, go and catch a few venomous snake corpses and keep them. Don't burn them all, make sure they are intact."
Fifteen minutes later, Xie Jingchun brought back all the imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Academy.
The imperial physicians stood in neat rows in the hall, each with an undisguised look of apprehension on their face.
We looked at each other, but no one dared to take a step forward.
The poison that the Crown Prince's wife was given looked extremely dangerous.
If they can be saved, that would be good.
If they can't save her, and something goes wrong that could really cost the Crown Prince's wife her life...
Will they even be able to leave the Marquis's mansion alive today...?
Seeing that none of them spoke, Xie Yanli's patience ran out instantly.
Just as he was about to have an attack, a clear voice came from the back of the group.
"Your Highness, I am willing to give it a try."
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a young man dressed in the official robes of the Imperial Medical Academy walk out.
Xie Yanli frowned slightly, feeling that he looked very familiar.
Then it suddenly came to mind.
It's Lin An.
He was the one who treated Xie Jingchun's poisoning wounds.
"Then go quickly!" Xie Yanli said immediately.
Lin An picked up his medicine box and quickly went to the bedside to check on Qin Jiuwei's condition.
He then took out a silver needle, and with a flick of his finger, the first needle was quickly inserted into her Hegu acupoint.
After several needles were inserted, Qin Jiuwei's originally weak breathing gradually stabilized, and her complexion improved slightly.
Xie Yanli's eyes lit up instantly upon seeing this.
"Your Highness, the Lady's condition has stabilized for the time being."
Lin An said softly, "But the snake venom that the young mistress has been poisoned has already penetrated deep into her body. What we are doing now is just to prevent the venom from spreading further."
"To achieve a full recovery, we need to address the snake venom and find a way to detoxify it."
Lin An arranged the silver needles and said in a low voice, "This humble official would like to take a look at that poisonous snake to confirm its toxicity."
