"What news did the queen hear?" Chu Heng immediately became interested when he saw the queen's expression.
He guessed that it should be a good thing.
"I heard that the patient's condition has worsened in the past few days and is in critical condition. I wonder if he can survive?"
"Maybe because he knew you became the prince, he was completely given up. He will never be able to turn around in this life."
Good things have happened one after another recently.
"Really?" Chu Heng's eyes also lit up.
The expression on his face was one of unconcealable excitement.
If Chu Yan could die quickly, that would be perfect!
"Of course, if this were not the case, how could I tell you?"
"Great, it's best not to be able to hold on!" Chu Heng said excitedly.
"We can't control this. We can't act rashly. Your father will definitely be concerned about him recently."
"Okay." Chu Heng could only respond.
"Get well soon, there are still many things waiting for you to do." the queen warned.
"Don't worry, Queen Mother, my son will be able to go to court in three days at most!"
"Well, there's no need to be brave."
"My son, I have a sense of propriety."
Ever since Emperor Chu heard that Chu Yan's condition had worsened, he had been depressed and didn't know what he was thinking about every day.
Finally, on the fourth night, he couldn't hold it back and called Quanzhong and several imperial guards to leave the palace incognito to visit Chu Yan.
Shen Yindi was surprised by his sudden arrival.
But she quickly calmed down and the play continued.
Fortunately she had the foresight.
"Your Majesty, why are you here?" The moon was high in the sky. When she saw Emperor Chu, her face was very shocked.
"I came over to see him."
Emperor Chu's voice was a little low.
"Your Majesty is interested. If my prince knows, he will definitely be very happy. Please come with me."
After a while, Emperor Chu came to the room.
Quanzhong and several other guards were waiting at the door.
Chu Yan was lying on the bed, his face pale, and even his mouth was bloodless.
Things looked really bad.
Emperor Chu frowned, his face a little solemn.
Chu Yan was very shocked when he saw him in the same state as Shen Yindi just now.
"Father, why are you here, my son..." He remembered and said weakly, but was stopped by Emperor Chu.
"Lie down and don't move."
"How have you been these past few days?" Emperor Chu stood beside the bed and asked with concern.
Before Chu Yan could speak, he started coughing violently. He held his chest with one hand.
Shen Yindi sat beside the bed and patted him on the back with a sad look on his face.
"Ugh..." Suddenly, Chu Yan spit out a mouthful of blood.
When the Emperor of Chu saw this, he was shocked.
"How could this be?"
"Girl Shen, has his condition been so bad these days? Is there any medicine that can alleviate his symptoms?" Emperor Chu asked in a low voice.
Shen Yindi looked annoyed: "Your Majesty, the civilian daughter is guilty. The poison in his body is too difficult to cure. The civilian daughter has no other solution for the time being."
"Even if a medicine can be made, it will only treat the symptoms but not the root cause."
"You must at least save Yan'er's life first!" Emperor Chu ordered.
"Your Majesty, Chu Yan is the husband of a common girl. The common daughter hopes that he will get better than anyone else. But as I said before, the common daughter is not a fairy!"
"Now all the civilian girl can do is to temporarily save his life."
"Is there no way to detoxify?" Emperor Chu asked in a low voice. He just wanted him to get better.
"Your Majesty, I'll tell you the truth. This is really difficult. Unless..."
"Unless what? If you have something to say, please tell me!" Emperor Chu was anxious.
"Your Majesty, Minnu would like to ask you for an oral instruction first. From now on...if the poison in his body is really unable to be controlled, please allow Minnu to take him out for treatment." Shen Yindi lowered his eyes and said in a low voice.
"Where to go?"
"Maybe we have to go to Zhaoyue Kingdom! However, this is the last resort."
"The civilian girl is just asking for your instructions first."
Emperor Chu's face changed slightly when he heard Shen Yindi's request.
After a long while, he found his voice: "I don't want to get to that point. If there is really no other way, I will consider it."
"The civilian girl would like to thank the emperor first!"
"Actually, civilian women don't want to get to that point. Folk women don't like to go out, let alone the long journey."
"Who wouldn't want to live a comfortable life if possible."
Emperor Chu nodded.
"Thank you for your concern, Father. In fact, I have been very clear about my situation these years. I am afraid that I will not be able to wait until the day when my injustice is redressed, and I will not know how to face my mother and concubine after my death..." Chu Yan said weakly. He was breathing heavily.
"Stop talking nonsense. You have never been so depressed before!"
"If you are innocent, prove it to me yourself."
Emperor Chu's eyes were a little red, but he still maintained his dignity.
In fact, my throat was so choked that I felt uncomfortable.
"My son, I will try my best..."
"Girl Shen, I don't care what method you use, you must save his life. If you need any medicine, just tell me and I will order someone to find it!" Emperor Chu ordered.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. The daughter of the people will do her best."
After explaining this, Emperor Chu left.
He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would not be able to control his emotions.
After all, this was his most beloved child.
He spared his life for such a big thing back then. No matter what, he didn't want him to die.
Shen Yindi went out to see Emperor Chu off.
He walked all the way to the door and watched his carriage leave and disappear into the night.
She then breathed a silent sigh of relief.
She turned around to go back and saw Si Yin standing in the middle of the yard.
"Master Siyin Pavilion, thank you for the report just now."
Fortunately, they had a stick of incense to prepare in advance, otherwise they might be caught off guard.
"Miss Shen, there's no need to be polite. It's just a matter of a finger."
Not long after the emperor left the palace, people from Tingyin Pavilion discovered it. Report to Si Yin quickly.
Shen Yindi returned to the room.
Chu Yan has already sat up. He took the handkerchief and wiped the blood from his mouth.
In fact, it was not his blood, but the blood bag given by his A Di. It was slightly sweet when placed in his mouth.
"Did your father say anything just now?"
"He didn't say a word when he walked out of this door. It wasn't until he got on the carriage that he told you again that you must save your life and inform him of any good news as soon as possible.
Chu Yan nodded.
"It seems that the Emperor still cares about you and doesn't want anything to happen to you." Shen Yindi sat beside the bed and said calmly.
"Yeah." Chu Yan couldn't deny this.
Just now he saw his father's eyes were red.
"Have you thanked Pavilion Master Siyin?"
"Of course, I will remember this great contribution to him. When Miss Si Qi wakes up, I will try my best to help her recover." Shen Yindi will remember their kindness.
"That's good." Chu Yan nodded.
"My lord, you just lied to the emperor, do you feel guilty?" Shen Yindi asked curiously.
"One thing, but I know that A Di is doing this for my own good." Chu Yan said truthfully.
He's not that pedantic.
Shen Yindi was relieved. She was afraid that with his upright character, his conscience would be disturbed.
"But having said that, you surprised me just now."
"Huh? Where's the surprise?"
