Everyone's heart tightened, and Su Qing turned around and ran to the inner room, crying out sadly, "Xue'er, what's wrong with you? How can I live like this..."
Through the opened door curtain, Yun Ruoxue was seen being tightly embraced by several maids in the inner room. At this moment, she no longer looked like the dignified young lady of the prime minister's mansion. Her hair, which was usually carefully combed, was now loose. Her rosy face was now even more pale and frightening. Especially her eyes, which inherited the soft beauty of Su Qing, were full of bloodshot. Her eyes were wide open and stared at Yun Qianmeng outside. The hands that were held by the maids suddenly stretched forward, pointing their ten fingers directly at Yun Qianmeng, and she screamed "Ghost... Ghost... Ah..."
After she screamed, Yun Ruoxue took a few steps back in fear. She then pulled at her long hair and trembled as she crawled towards the bed, screaming at everyone not to come near her...
Su Qing rushed towards Yun Ruoxue with tears on her face, hugged her body, and said heartbrokenly, "Xue'er... wake up... If you continue like this... I will not live anymore... My poor child... who is so cruel to hurt you like this..."
Everyone looked in the direction Yun Ruoxue pointed, and lowered their heads in fear...
Seeing his perfectly normal daughter transformed into this state overnight, Yun Xuanzhi was stunned for a long time, even though he was the prime minister. It took him a long time to recover. Especially after noticing Yun Ruoxue's behavior, Yun Xuanzhi felt a surge of anger in his heart. He shouted at the maids and servants in the house, "Are they all dead? Get out and see if the doctor has arrived! If anyone leaks a word about the second young lady's condition, I will kill him!"
As soon as such harsh words were spoken, all the servants bowed and answered cautiously, "Yes!"
Yun Xuanzhi's gaze then turned to Yun Qianmeng. Seeing that his eldest daughter had a calm expression and a cool gaze, Su Qing's words just now could not help but echo in his mind!
It is absolutely impossible to say that he has no doubts about Yun Qianmeng's recent transformation!
However, if it was true as Su Qing said, that Yun Qianmeng brought dirty things into the Prime Minister's Mansion, Yun Xuanzhi was still a little confused!
After all, during this period of time, Yun Qianmeng stayed in Qiluo Garden as usual and did not do anything out of the ordinary!
But why did Ruoxue suddenly become like this, and why did she point at Yun Qianmeng and say that she was a ghost!
This sudden change made Yun Xuanzhi frown, and his eyes looked at Yun Qianmeng with deep inquiry and sharpness...
Yun Qianmeng let Yun Xuanzhi look at her, but her gaze had already shifted away from Yun Ruoxue and she glanced lightly at Aunt Liu who was standing beside her!
Liu Hanyu pondered for a moment, then walked over to Yun Xuanzhi with sorrow in her eyes. She whispered to him, "Master, the Second Young Miss is a little out of her mind. She talks nonsense whenever she sees anyone. This probably has nothing to do with ghosts and gods! Besides, the Second Young Miss has been staying in her room all this time. If there's any punishment, it's because the maids and servants around her didn't take good care of her..."
Unfortunately, before Liu Hanyu could finish her words, Su Qing rushed in front of her, raised his hand and slapped Liu Hanyu in the face, then glared at her and cursed, "Liu Hanyu, you bitch, what do you mean the Second Young Lady is already unconscious? Do you think you can make up the Second Young Lady? Whose influence are you relying on?"
After punishing Liu Hanyu, Su Qing immediately put away her previous ferocity and threw herself into Yun Xuanzhi's arms like a hurt little woman, bursting into tears. "Master, I've been by your side for so many years, and nothing like this has ever happened in our family. But ever since Concubine Liu took over as housekeeper, just look at what life we've been living through. We haven't seen you all day, and you didn't even realize Xue'er was sick until after all this time! Tell me, if she wasn't carrying bad luck, why would my Xue'er be like this?"
After saying that, Su Qing buried her head in Yun Xuanzhi's arms, her shoulders trembling constantly. Seeing this, Yun Xuanzhi's heart softened. He raised one hand and gently stroked her back, silently comforting her!
Liu Hanyu was slapped for no apparent reason. Seeing Yun Xuanzhi and Su Qingyi's affectionate expressions, she immediately became furious. Hatred gradually surfaced in her half-closed eyes...
Yun Qianmeng watched the farce unfolding before her, silently approached Liu Hanyu, and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Thank you for your help, Auntie!"
Then she raised her head and spoke in a steady voice, "Father, I understand that Aunt Su is too anxious about Second Sister's affairs, but Aunt Liu has done nothing wrong. I hope Aunt Su will be more sensible in the future and not use Second Sister's name to get angry!"
Upon hearing this, Yun Xuanzhi and Su Qing paused at the same time...
Yun Xuanzhi couldn't help but look at Liu Hanyu. He saw that after being beaten by Su Qing, she didn't make a fuss, but just stood quietly aside. Although she lowered her head, he could still see the bright red palm print on her snow-white cheek!
Thinking of how Liu Hanyu had graciously found several beautiful and clean-born women for him today, Yun Xuanzhi felt a surge of pity for Liu Hanyu. He gradually let go of Su Qing's arms and said apologetically, "Yu'er, are you okay?"
Seeing Yun Qianmeng stand up for her, Liu Hanyu felt a surge of gratitude. Hearing Yun Xuanzhi's concern, her eyes immediately turned red. She whispered, "I'm fine! Master, please go in and check on the Second Young Miss! The most important thing right now is the Second Young Miss. I hope she doesn't develop any underlying illness!"
Su Qing had already raised her face from Yun Xuanzhi's embrace. Her eyes flashed with venomous intent as she shot towards Yun Qianmeng and Liu Hanyu. Just as she was about to speak, there was a commotion outside. A moment later, an old man who looked like a doctor was led in by the maids...
Seeing that the doctor was about to bow, Yun Xuanzhi felt anxious and stopped him, letting him go in to treat the patient quickly. The maids in the inner room had already drawn the bed curtains, waiting for the doctor's diagnosis...
"Doctor, what's the matter?" Su Qing twisted the silk handkerchief with both hands, her face was so nervous that she almost fainted, and her voice was trembling slightly!
"My Lord, I cannot diagnose and cure the young lady's illness!" The doctor looked at the people in the room, and finally set his eyes on Yun Xuanzhi, and spoke with panic!
Seeing the doctor frowning and looking speechless, Yun Xuanzhi said loudly, "Leave Madam Su, Madam Liu, and the eldest lady behind. Everyone else, leave!"
Everyone quickly left the inner room as instructed. Yun Xuanzhi then stared at the doctor and asked seriously, "What's going on?"
The doctor pondered for a moment before slowly speaking, "Your Excellency, the young lady's illness, in my humble opinion, may have been caused by a ghost or spirit! I just took her pulse and found her to be fine, but from behind the curtain came her nearly frantic cries. I suspect this illness cannot be cured!"
After hearing what the doctor said, Su Qing's legs softened instantly. If Yun Xuanzhi hadn't been there to support her, she would have lost her composure in front of others. Although Yun Xuanzhi seemed calm, his slightly fluctuating eyes revealed his current mood!
Concubine Liu's face turned pale with fear at the doctor's words. Although this matter had nothing to do with her, according to the situation just now, this fire would definitely burn the young lady. If the young lady fell, wouldn't she...
Thinking of this, Liu Hanyu looked at Yun Qianmeng for help, but saw that she was calm and there was even a hint of sarcasm in her eyes when she looked at Su Qing. This made Liu Hanyu's mind suddenly concentrated, and she instantly thought of other aspects, and her nervous mood relaxed!
"Then according to the doctor's opinion, how should we save our second sister?" Seeing the people in the room crying and stunned, Yun Qianmeng's eyes were always on the doctor who lowered his head!
Amidst the cries, the doctor suddenly heard a chilling voice. His already tense heart slowed down for a moment, and he felt a chill rising through his body...
