Chapter 242: Mother-in-law is Poisoned

That night, the couple opened their hearts to each other and told each other everything they had kept in their hearts, which made them realize that they were not the only ones who were sincere.

The next morning, Mu Xingci quietly got up to attend the morning court. When Yun Wansheng woke up, the sun was already high in the sky.

Just as she was asking the maid to help her dress, Wu's personal maid suddenly ran in.

"Princess, this is terrible! Madam has fainted from the pain in her chest!"

Yun Wansheng was shocked when she heard this, and then she stood up and hurried out: "What's going on?"

"I don't know either. Yesterday at the temple, Madam's heart disease flared up. I fed her the medicine I had ready for emergency treatment, but it didn't stop the pain.

The lady was in so much pain that she broke out in a cold sweat and fainted. Just when we didn't know what to do, a woman happened to pass by.

It was she who examined the lady and fed her a pill, and she finally woke up.

"I thought she was fine, but she had a relapse this morning, and calling the court doctor was of no use," said the maid, A'ran, worriedly.

Yun Wansheng paused for a moment, then quickened her pace again: "Hurry up and send someone to the palace to summon the imperial physician, and call back the regent as well."

"Yes!" the maid replied and went to find someone.

Yun Wansheng came to Wu's yard. As soon as she entered the room, she saw Wu lying on the bed with her eyes closed, her face extremely pale.

"Mother-in-law?" Yun Wansheng called out worriedly.

But Wu didn't move at all, which made Yun Wansheng anxious and asked the court doctor beside her: "Has Madam ever had a heart attack before?"

"Princess, the lady has been suffering from heart disease for more than ten years. However, it was not so serious when she had the disease before. Today is the first time she fainted." The court doctor said seriously.

Upon hearing this, Yun Wansheng dispelled her doubts.

After waiting anxiously for two quarters of an hour, Mu Xingci came in with the imperial physician Su Mutang.

"Husband, please let the imperial physician see my mother-in-law." Yun Wansheng walked up to her and said anxiously.

"Don't worry, my lady." Mu Xingci gently soothed her cheek twice, and then let Su Mutang go to treat his mother.

The couple stood side by side in front of the bed, watching the imperial physician take their pulse, with anxiety on their faces.

After Su Mutang finished his inspection, he looked at Mu Xingci and said, "Prince Regent, has Madam been suffering from heart disease for many years?"

"Exactly! But there has never been a fainting incident before."

"This heart disease will become more serious as she gets older. I think she should pay more attention to rest and avoid strenuous activities. Has she done anything in the past two days?" Su Mutang asked.

Mu Xingci thought for a moment: "My mother went to Guanshan Temple to burn incense yesterday. Is she tired from the trip?"

"It should be! Rong Weichen, try giving her acupuncture." After saying that, he took out the needle bag from the medicine box.

Mu Xingci watched him insert the long silver needle into his mother's body, which made him feel very distressed.

Just when they thought the lady would wake up after the acupuncture, she was still unconscious.

"Imperial Physician Su, why is my mother still not awake?" Mu Xingci asked worriedly.

Su Mutang also frowned, and then he took the patient's pulse and listened to the heart for a while.

"Lord Regent, I just listened to your madam's heartbeat for a moment and confirmed that her pulse is stable and she is fine. I will prescribe some medicine for her and she may wake up later."

Mu Xingci felt relieved after hearing this: "Just prescribe some medicine for her!"

"yes!"

After he wrote the prescription, Mu Xingci asked the court doctor to get the medicine and prepare it as soon as possible.

After Imperial Physician Su left, the couple sat in the room to take care of Mrs. Wu.

After watching for a while, Mu Xingci looked at his beloved wife sitting on the guest chair and said, "My dear, go back to your room and have a rest! I'm here for you."

"I'm not tired. I won't feel at ease until I see my mother-in-law wake up." Yun Wansheng didn't move.

Seeing that she was so filial to her mother, Mu Xingci couldn't help but smile. He stood up, walked to her, and gently helped her up.

"Be good! You are pregnant now! You can't get tired. Go back! I will come to find you when my mother wakes up."

Yun Wansheng heard this and did not insist: "Okay! When mother-in-law wakes up, have someone tell me immediately."

"I will. Someone, take the princess back to the main courtyard."

Yun Wansheng went back accompanied by her maid. After Mu Xingci watched her leave, he sat down by Wu's bed and kept watch over her.

As he waited anxiously, Mu Xinghan ran in: "Brother, how is Mom?"

"She hasn't woken up yet. Maybe she'll wake up after I give her the medicine." His tone was uncertain.

"Why did she faint for no reason?" Mu Xinghan looked at her pale mother lying on the bed, puzzled. Then he glared at the maid and said, "Aran, how do you take care of my mother?"

Seeing that the Second Master was venting his anger on her, Ah Ran was so frightened that she quickly knelt down and said, "Second Master, please forgive me. I have always taken good care of Madam and have never been negligent.

Actually…actually, my wife had a heart attack yesterday when she went to burn incense. If a female doctor hadn't passed by, who knows what would have happened to her." Ah Ran hesitated for a while before telling the truth.

Upon hearing this, the two brothers glared at her angrily. Mu Xingci said in a cold voice, "Why didn't you say so earlier?"

"Replying to the Regent, it was because the Madam was afraid that you would worry that she asked us not to mention it to you.

I am speaking out now only because I am thinking that if Madam...if she doesn't wake up, the Regent can still send someone to find that female doctor."

Just as Mu Xingci was about to ask again, he saw the court doctor walk in with a bowl of medicine. "Prince Regent, the medicine is ready. I have adjusted the temperature and you can feed it anytime."

"Why don't you go and take care of my mother and help her take her medicine!" Mu Xing scolded the maid coldly.

A'ran quickly stood up and took the bowl of medicine from the doctor's tray.

The two brothers watched her feed the medicine to Mrs. Wu, then sat aside and waited quietly.

They waited until noon, but Mrs. Wu showed no sign of waking up.

"A'ran, where is that female doctor from?" Mu Xingci asked in a deep voice.

"From her conversation with the Madam, it seems her father opened a Renji Medical Clinic in the capital, and she often sits in the clinic to see patients." A'ran answered truthfully.

"Nyi, take your men and go find out about that female doctor right away. Once you find her, invite her to this king immediately."

"Yes!" I, who was waiting at the door of the hall, responded and went out.

At this time, Yun Wansheng walked in. Seeing that Mrs. Wu had not woken up yet, she couldn't help but look at Mu Xingci worriedly.

"Why hasn't mother-in-law woken up yet? Didn't she see the imperial physician?"

"I don't know why my mother hasn't woken up yet. The maid said that my mother had a seizure yesterday and was saved by a female doctor. I have sent someone to find her to see if she has any solution." Mu Xingci stood beside her, looking at the person on the bed.

"Did you know that the doctor is from the capital?"
