Chapter 51 Poisoning 2

When Wen Wanyu woke up, she saw the familiar curtains and realized that she had returned to Chang Lixuan.

She moved her fingers and spoke with difficulty.

Bai Su had been guarding the bedside, and woke up immediately when she heard any movement.

Wen Wanyu couldn't say anything for the time being. She wanted to ask her what happened and how long she had slept.

Bai Su tucked the corner of the quilt for her: "My lady, you were poisoned by oleander and were unconscious for a day. The imperial physician said that you would be fine once you woke up. Fortunately, my lady is fine, otherwise what would I have done?"

Wen Wanyu nodded.

She wanted to cry. Why did everything happen to her? There were at least dozens of people in Chaoyang Palace, and she was one of the lucky ones among tens.

"Young Master."

Wen Wanyu looked at her.

"Do you know?"

Wen Wanyu: "..." Why is she always talking nonsense? What does she know? Hasn't she been in a coma?

Bai Su said with a smile: "The emperor personally carried you back to Changlixuan."

At that time, they were worried. The young lady was unconscious and could not stay in Chaoyang Palace forever. They didn't know how to move the young lady back to Changlixuan.

The Emperor seemed to be pondering this question as well. He spoke to the imperial physician about something. He wrapped the young lady in a blanket twice, making sure she wasn't exposed to the wind, and then carried her back to Chang Lixuan.

Chang Lixuan wasn't very close to Chaoyang Palace, so the emperor carried the young lady for a quarter of an hour. She was so tired that she was panting as she tried to keep up with the emperor's pace.

But the emperor didn't even say a word of being tired.

"The emperor also said that your wife is too light!" Bai Su said to her with a smile.

Wen Wanyu smiled.

She is 165cm tall and weighs less than 100kg, which is just average. To say she is too light is an exaggeration.

"My lady, why don't you speak?" Bai Su looked at her puzzledly.

Wen Wanyu: "..." Does she look like she can speak?

Why didn't she realize that Bai Su had such a talent for comedy before?

She pointed to her throat and then shook her head.

"Oh. So that's how it is."

The next second, Bai Su almost screamed: "My dear, you can't speak anymore?!"

Wen Wanyu: "..." Her ears were severely injured!

"How could this happen?! What should I do in the future?!" Bai Su threw himself beside her, crying.

"You're making so much noise. How can your master have a good rest?" Xie Junyao's angry voice suddenly came.

Bai Su stood up suddenly: "Greetings to the Emperor."

Xie Junyao walked to the bedside and said to Bai Su with some disgust: "Get out."

I thought she was a steady person, but she turned out to be just like her master, easily startled.

Bai Su refused to leave, tears still streaming down her face: "Your Majesty, the young lady cannot speak anymore."

Xie Junyao sighed, suppressing his anger. This maidservant was not only startled but also not very smart.

"...Go down and get the doctor. If you stay here, will she be able to speak?"

The tone was fierce, and Wen Wanyu's heart trembled when she heard it. She tugged at his clothes and stared at him with her round and beautiful eyes, signaling him not to speak so harshly.

Xie Junyao: “???”

Bai Su reluctantly went out: "I understand, I will go and get the imperial physician right away."

Xie Junyao's tone softened a bit: "Okay, okay, go down quickly."

Until Bai Su disappeared.

Xie Junyao finally spoke: "How about I find you a...smarter personal maid? That way, she won't make so much noise and disturb you."

Wen Wanyu's watery almond-shaped eyes moved slightly. After realizing that he was making insinuations, she turned her back angrily.

Innuendo—she's not very bright either.

Xie Junyao smiled and straightened her body: "Okay, stop making trouble."

"Still feeling bad?"

Wen Wanyu shook her head, then thought for a moment and raised a finger.

"A little bit uncomfortable?" Xie Junyao thought for a moment and said.

Wen Wanyu nodded with satisfaction, thinking that his comprehension ability was quite good, and then gave a thumbs up.

Xie Junyao was amused: "I see you are in good spirits."

Wen Wanyu pointed to her throat and pursed her lips.

Xie Junyao took her hand, stroked her fingers, and said, "It will be fine."

Doctor Lin arrived quickly and after taking the emperor's pulse, he said, "Your Majesty and the young lady, don't worry. The oleander poison has somewhat damaged the young lady's throat. She should speak less for the next few days and, with the help of this humble medicine, she will recover in a few days."

Xie Junyao felt relieved: "Then her body is in your hands."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty."

Doctor Lin has been able to work in the harem for so many years. In addition to his superb medical skills, he also has a keen eye.

This Lady Ling is the apple of the Emperor's eye. If you take good care of her, the Emperor will surely reward you handsomely.

Xie Junyao held her hand and said, "The imperial physician said you were injured."

He lowered his eyes, so Wen Wanyu could not see the emotions in his eyes.

"It's hard. You'll have to drink this medicine for a long time."

Wen Wanyu shook his hand back, smiled at him, and signaled that everything was fine.

She is very well behaved and has always been the best.

Xie Junyao pressed her into his arms, his chin resting on her forehead.

"In a few days, I will arrange for you to meet your parents."

Wen Wanyu looked up at him in disbelief, as if she thought of something, and then lowered her eyes again.

Xie Junyao knew that she was worried that it would not go against the rules, or that the Queen would not agree, so he said softly, "You have been wronged, and the Queen will agree."

Wen Wanyu's eyes suddenly brightened and she looked at him tenderly.

She was thinking: The emperor has been doing more and more personnel matters recently. That's great (ω)

Li Dexian lowered his head and said at the door: "Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine invites you to come over."

Xie Junyao thought for a while, and it seemed that the imperial concubine had some ideas or clues.

"I'll go to Fuyao Palace first and come see you tomorrow."

He earnestly admonished her for a long time, telling her not to lose her temper, to take her medicine properly, not to be picky about food, and to eat more vegetables.

Before leaving, he did not forget to remind Bai Su not to disturb Wen Wanyu's rest.

In Fuyao Palace, Xie Junyao saw Concubine Jin and Lin Fenyi there, and immediately understood that this matter was probably related to them.

Concubine Zhengui told him the whole story in detail without missing a word.

Then the eunuchs and maids who were cleaning the imperial garden came forward to correct him:

They all heard the conversation between Lin Fenyi, An Xiuyi and Jin Jieyu. Lin Fenyi told An Xiuyi and Jin Jieyu that oleander is highly poisonous and a small amount of juice can take a person's life.

Xie Junyao looked at Concubine Zhengui: "So An Xiuyi is also a suspect."

Concubine Zhengui was startled. "Your Majesty, this is exactly what An Xiuyi told me. An Xiuyi has nothing to hide, so she spoke so frankly."

Xie Junyao said leisurely: "This can't convince me."

"Besides, the Imperial Concubine only found these in two days of investigation?"

Concubine Zhengui choked and was speechless for a moment. She thought the result was intuitive enough.

Lin Fenyi took the opportunity to explain, "Your Majesty, I was just kindly reminding Concubine Jin. I had no other intentions."

Concubine Jin nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty. Although Lin Fenyi reminded me, this matter has nothing to do with me."

It would be too far-fetched to rely solely on the conversation between Concubine Jin and Lin Fenyi and the testimony of the servants in the Imperial Garden.

The imperial concubine still has too little experience.

Xie Junyao didn't want to hurt innocent people, nor did he want to let the matter go.

"My Lady, please check it more carefully."
