Chapter 204: Nangong Mei is Poisoned
ng finally couldn't hold back her tears anymore."A-Yue, it's sister who apologizes to you! Back then, if not for sister being afraid of getting blood on her hands and would rather starve than kill, yo...She stopped speaking and deliberately lowered her head, using the corner of her eye to glance at the dog emperor's gloomy and murderous expression.
Seeing Qingxuan this timid and ready to retreat, the Emperor took a deep breath and steadied his mind.
The Emperor: “My Empress, there’s no need to rush back. Please focus on treating me and see what illness I have.”
Qingxuan evaded once again.
Qingxuan: "Your Majesty, but it's my humble self's medical skills…"
The emperor immediately interrupted her, "I'm only having you carefully diagnose me right now, I haven't asked you to treat me immediately."
Qingxuan only then looked up at the emperor upon hearing this.
Worried that Qingxuan would continue to insist on returning to Chen Wangfu, the emperor now didn't dare to show her any face.
At this time, Qingxuan saw that the emperor had completely subdued the anger in his eyes. His gaze towards her became very kind and amiable.
Where can you still see even a hint of the cruelty and ruthlessness of this emperor, who was like a dog
Qingxuan pretended to be cautious.
Qingxuan said cautiously, “If the result of treating my father is… not very good, then you should discuss with the imperial physicians again about the cause of my illness.”
Now that the emperor was offering her a step down, Qingxuan naturally wouldn't refuse any further.
Qingxuan: “Since father emperor doesn't blame me, then this daughter-in-law will dare to give it a try.”
The emperor had waited a long time for this moment, and finally Qingxuan took out her crystal silk.
The moment the crystal silk covered his wrist, the emperor felt a chill.
The emperor stared intently at Qingxuan, his eyes fixed on her facial expressions.
Facing the gaze of the Dog Emperor, Qingxuan remained quite composed.
Soon, the Emperor's physical condition had been scanned and entered Qingxuan's mind.
As she guessed, the emperor had liver cancer, but because the imperial physician had prescribed medicine to intervene, the emperor's liver cancer was under control and still in its early stages.
But what surprised Qingxuan even more was another thing.
The dog emperor's body actually contained a kind of chronic poison.
The Emperor saw Qingxuan's furrowed brow, she must have confirmed that he had a sarcoma.
The emperor gave a light cough: "Has the Imperial Consort received a diagnosis"
Before the emperor could speak, Zhou Dequan's voice suddenly came from outside, sounding urgent.
Zhou Dequan: "Your Majesty is unwell!"
Zhou Dequan rushed in.
The emperor's face darkened. Zhou Dequan wouldn't be so flustered unless it was a matter of great urgency.
The emperor said in a deep voice, "What is the matter"
Zhou Dequan turned his head to glance at Qingxuan, wanting to speak but stopping himself.
Zhou Dequan: "Your Majesty, after the little princess met the Crown Princess at the medicinal hot springs, she returned to Lingxi Palace and soon vomited a mouthful of black blood. Now she's bleeding from all seven orifices. The imperial physician rushed over to check…"
Upon hearing that Nangong Mei was in trouble, a flicker of panic crossed the emperor's eyes.
The Emperor: "What did you say!"
Qingxuan's face also grew solemn.
Zhou Dequan: “The imperial physicians say the little princess has been poisoned, and... there is no medicine that can save her.”
The Emperor's face turned ashen upon hearing this, and a chilling murderous aura emanated from him.
"Your Majesty, what on earth is going on"
Qingxuan did not answer the emperor's words, but immediately looked at Zhou Dequan.
Qingxuan: "Zhou Gonggong, take me to find the little princess! Now, quickly!"
Zhou Dequan was stunned by Qingxuan's shout.
Qingxuan had not anticipated the emperor's reaction at all.
Knowing that saving the princess was urgent now, Zhou Dequan still had to see what the emperor meant. He raised his head and looked at the emperor.
Qingxuan instantly understood. If the emperor didn't speak up, she wouldn't only be unable to go to Lingxi Hall to save Nangong Mei, but she might also be thrown into the Heavenly Prison for poisoning the little princess.
Qing turned to face the emperor, "Father Emperor, the poison on the little princess wasn't laid by me. The situation is urgent now, saving the little princess is paramount. After we save the princess, Father Emperor can then handle the aftermath."
Nan Gong Mei was favored by the emperor since childhood.
The Emperor treated Nangong Mei as his beloved jewel. Now that the Imperial physician couldn't save Nangong Mei, the Emperor pondered for a moment before solemnly saying, "Empress Consort, if my Mei'er is beyond saving, I shall have you buried with her!"companied by blue smoke, the veil fell, and Ling Luo's true face was exposed before everyone.Although Ling Ruo didn't mix in the circle of noblewomen in the capital, there were women present who had a...
