Ye Chutang, the inheritor of an ancient medical family, had been diligent her entire life, working tirelessly. Just as she was about to take over as head, she died unexpectedly.
Reborn, she o...
Chapter 231 Time (Part 2)
Different from the previous minor quarrels, the old incident that Han Yao was involved in this time had a huge impact.
It is true that Ye Zheng offended the emperor and was demoted, but the accident that happened later was not the emperor's intention.
If it is proven that his death was not an accident, but was deliberately plotted by someone...I can imagine that His Majesty will definitely order people to get to the bottom of it!
The emperor’s wrath is something they cannot bear!
Just when Ye Shixian was getting extremely worried, the sound of a maid crying and shouting suddenly came from outside the door.
"Miss! Please go and see the Second Young Master!"
Ye Shixian turned around hurriedly and saw Ye Mingze's personal maid running towards her crying.
She felt increasingly uneasy.
"What happened to Mingze?"
The little maid fell to her knees with a thud.
"Miss! The Second Young Master has had a high fever since last night. He won't eat or drink, and he won't take any medicine. I'm afraid that if the fever continues like this, I'm afraid, I'm afraid--"
Ye Shixian was furious: "Such a big thing, why did you wait until now to report it!"
The little maidservant was trembling and sobbing: "Miss, spare me! I just thought that the current situation in the mansion is worse than less trouble. You are already worried enough, so I didn't dare to come to disturb you. I just wanted to wipe the second young master's body and sweat him up, maybe he will get better, who knows..."
Her voice became smaller and smaller, and tears kept falling. It was obvious that she was extremely scared.
Ye Shixian closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She felt as if something was rushing against her chest. Her temples were throbbing and giving her a splitting headache.
Yes, in such a short period of time, too many things happened at home, and everyone in the house was in a panic. No one dared to report such a thing. They were forced to come here because they could no longer cover it up!
Ye Shixian didn't care about anything else and walked out quickly.
"If anything happens to Mingze, none of you will have an easy life!"
…
Ye Shixian arrived as quickly as possible and pushed open the door.
"Mingze?"
She walked quickly forward, walked around the screen, and saw Ye Mingze lying on the bed with his eyes closed and an abnormal flush on his face.
He has been in a coma for some time. He has lost a lot of weight and his face has changed a lot.
With such a facial expression, it is even more weird.
Ye Shixian touched his forehead and found it was indeed extremely hot.
Her heart was in her throat - if the fever was not brought down quickly, she would be burned to death!
"Mingze? Mingze?"
She called out several times anxiously, but Ye Mingze was the same as he had been in the past, with no reaction at all.
"Give me the medicine!"
She ordered someone to help Ye Mingze up, intending to feed him the medicine herself.
But Ye Mingze was just as the maid said, his mouth was tightly shut and not a single bite could be fed.
The bitter brown medicine flowed out from his lips, soaking his clothes and bedding, and even spilled a little on Ye Shixian's dress.
The dark mark on her skirt was particularly conspicuous.
Ye Shixian's hands holding the medicine bowl trembled slightly, and she felt a chill rising up.
In just a few days, she became a fish on the chopping board, at the mercy of others!
"Miss, please save the second young master!" the little maid begged crying.
Doesn’t Ye Shixian want to save him?
This is her own brother!
What's more, the situation on his father's side is unknown, and Mingze is now the only male in the family. Although Ye Shixian always feels that her brother is stupid and impulsive, she can't just watch him die.
If anything happened to him, her and her mother's life would never be easy!
She glanced out the door.
The autumn weather was clear and the sun was shining brightly, but the yard was filled with fallen leaves, which made the place look inexplicably desolate.
She gritted her teeth and stood up suddenly!
…
Outside the Ye family’s gate, the soldiers in charge of guarding stood with knives in their hands.
Ye Shixian came over quickly, her eyes red, obviously she had just cried.
Her finely trimmed nails had dug deeply into her palms, causing her excruciating pain.
"My dear officials, I have a favor to ask of you!" Ye Shixian stopped, knelt down and saluted, with a sad expression, "My brother is sick, he had a high fever all night and needs medical treatment urgently. I know that the Ye family has been sealed, and it is not easy for you to do anything, so I don't ask for anything else, I just ask for a favor, please pass a message to my cousin Ye Chutang, asking her to save my brother's life for the sake of being a member of the Ye family!"
As she spoke, she actually knelt down straight!
In the dead silence, Ye Shixian could already smell the sweet and fishy scent between her lips and teeth.
She was extremely angry and hateful!
Before today, she had never thought that she would kneel down to such a lowly servant!
But she really had no choice!
She had to protect Mingze, and now the entire Ye family was under the care of Shen Yanchuan's people. They would not allow outsiders to come in, only Ye Chutang -
Ye Shixian never dreamed that after going through so much trouble, she would end up asking for help from the person she hated the most!
Several officers looked at each other, and one of them finally spoke.
"Miss Ye, it's not that we don't want to help, it's just that your brother is sick at the wrong time. Miss Ye was held hostage by Han Yao today and almost died. She couldn't even take care of her own safety, so how could she come here?"
Ye Shixian looked up suddenly!
The officer remained unmoved and waved his hands at her - that person was sent back to the palace by the prince himself, so can't he weigh the pros and cons of this matter?
Ye Shixian pinched her palms until blood came out, her vision went dark, and finally her body went limp and she fell to the ground!
…
Ye Mansion.
Ye Chutang treated the wound quickly. The gauze on her slender white neck was particularly eye-catching.
Ye Yunfeng stared at her, still feeling overwhelmed with guilt.
"Don't think too much. Since I'm your elder sister, I should do this." Ye Chutang said, and suddenly remembered something, "Oh, who shot the last arrow?"
Ye Yunfeng was startled, and after recalling for a moment, he frowned and shook his head: "There were too many people at the time, and I didn't see clearly, but what is certain is that they are definitely the prince's men, and they are extremely powerful!"
Ye Chutang seemed to be thinking: "Then I'll find a chance later and arrange a match for you?"
Ye Yunfeng's eyes lit up: "Really?"
"Of course it's true." Ye Chutang was also very interested and smiled. "No matter what, he saved me, didn't he? I should thank him."
She tilted her head, her voice soft and gentle.
“After my father, mother and brother’s affairs are settled, I will go to ask Chen Yanchuan.”
Ye Jingyan was stunned for a moment, and then he murmured softly: "Speaking of which, the day is almost here."
