Old Master Ruan said, "Xiao Dinghan, we didn't know your daughter was from Gan Country at first. My son always thought she was from here. They were in love with each other willingly, and Qi Chuan never forced your daughter."
It is rumored that Xiao Dinghan is very skilled in martial arts. If a fight really breaks out, Qi Chuan won't be able to withstand even a single punch.
"I know you guys prioritize parental consent and matchmaker decisions, but here we prioritize equality in love between men and women. Even parents have to respect their children's marriages."
"I understand your heartache for your daughter. Have you ever thought about what Qingmu, a girl, would do if she suddenly came to this world alone and didn't know anyone? She met Qi Chuan, married him, gave birth to Ruanruan, and then disappeared. Qi Chuan never gave up looking for her."
"If you think my son bullied your daughter, you should wait until your daughter wakes up and ask her. If there is any coercion, then you can do it."
Xiao Dinghan released his hand and looked up at Ruan Qichuan: "What's going on? Didn't you say that my daughter came here and was with you? Why did she go back again? Why did she appear in the Prince Jin's Mansion and was unconscious?"
Ruan Qichuan said, "When I met Mu'er six years ago, she was wearing ancient costume and holding a vase in her hand. She never told me her origins..."
"I was married to her and had Ruanruan until three years ago. Suddenly one day she disappeared from home. I looked everywhere but couldn't find her."
"Mu'er's eldest brother said that you found Mu'er in the Prince of Jin's Mansion half a year ago. We suspect that Mu'er returned to Gan Country three years ago. In the past two and a half years, it is very likely that someone else took her away."
"I took Mu'er to the hospital for a checkup. The reason she was in a coma was because she had a head injury before, and there were some blood clots in her brain. These blood clots would actually disappear in less than a month. The real cause of her coma was the poison. Mu'er had been poisoned for several years."
Xiao Dinghan gradually calmed down, "Poisoned? You mean Mu'er has been poisoned for three years?"
"Yes, someone didn't want her to wake up, so they used a chronic poison." Ruan Qichuan looked at Xiao Qingmu lying quietly on the bed, bent down and held her hand.
"Did Mu'er offend anyone over there? Or does your Xiao family have any enemies?"
Xiao Dinghan frowned, "That's impossible. Our Xiao family is so powerful in Bianjing that no one dares to oppose us except His Majesty. Who would be so reckless as to poison Mu'er?"
"But my mother was bullied. Look at my mother's hand. She was pinched by that bad grandma Princess Xiao!" Ruanruan understood what Xiao Dinghan said. She hurried forward and pulled up Xiao Qingmu's sleeves. Her fair and tender arms were covered with purple bruises.
"Su Qiaoer did all this?" Xiao Dinghan pulled open Xiao Qingmu's other sleeve and saw the same bruise on it. He instantly became furious.
Old Master Ruan sighed and said, "The injuries on Qingmu's body are obvious from repeated pinching after healing, which has accumulated over time."
"Even if the poison in her body is cured, she may not wake up."
Xiao Dinghan's heart sank. He took a step back and sat down on the bed weakly as if he had lost all his energy.
"I have already asked the eldest brother to go to Qingzhou to find that Dr. Luo..."
"Uncle Luo can't cure it. Grandpa said that this poison is a mental poison. Mom is deeply poisoned and there is no way she will wake up." Ruanruan looked up at him and said.
"However, our Ruan family's medical skills have been passed down for hundreds of years. We have a needle method at home that might be worth a try." said Old Master Ruan.
"Then what are you waiting for?" Xiao Dinghan raised his eyes.
"It's just that this acupuncture method is special, and the chance of success is extremely low. Even I haven't been able to succeed."
Old Master Ruan said, "But Ruanruan can give it a try, but the prerequisite is that you have to find out what kind of poison is in Qingmu and detoxify it first, the sooner the better."
The inspection on their side takes some time, so in order to avoid wasting time, both sides carry out the inspection at the same time.
Old Master Ruan introduced the current world to Xiao Dinghan, and also talked about some of the help that Ruanruan had given to Qingzhou when she was in Gan Kingdom.
"Don't worry about your work over there, we will take good care of Qingmu."
Xiao Dinghan got up from the bed, turned around and glanced at Xiao Qingmu again, and was silent for a few seconds: "I'll send someone over there to look for him. Qingmu will be left to you for the time being."
He could feel the sincerity of the Ruan family father and son, and he had to admit that it was safest for Mu'er to stay here now.
It was because he didn't take good care of Mu'er that the bad guys had the opportunity to harm Mu'er!
Once he finds the person, he will tear him into pieces.
Ruanruan and Zhao Chengqian took Xiao Dinghan back to Gan Kingdom.
"Investigate! Investigate it inside and out for me." Xiao Dinghan gave the order immediately.
"Your Highness, this is the medicine that the young lady has been taking for the past six months." The nanny stepped forward and took out a prescription, and then took a medicine jar from the maid next to her.
Ruanruan walked over, looked up and said, "Let me see."
The nanny looked at the little guy in front of her who looked exactly like her own young lady, and felt very relieved. She didn't expect that her young lady had a daughter.
The young lady's daughter is also her master.
Nanny handed the prescription in her hand to Ruanruan.
Ruanruan looked at the herbs on the prescription, then raised her head to look at the medicine jar in Mammy's hand. "This prescription is the same as the one in the jar, no problem. This prescription is for warming the body and treating brain congestion."
"This medicine was specially prescribed by me at the request of Dean Wen. I also had someone check the medicine and found no problems. I also sent people to watch over Mu'er when she made the medicine every day. There is no way there could be any problems." Xiao Dinghan said.
Hearing that Mu'er had been poisoned for several years and it was a chronic poisoning, he suspected that Ruan Qichuan's examination was wrong.
The Xiao Palace is so strict, how could someone poison someone?
"No." Ruanruan put his nose to the mouth of the medicine jar and took a deep breath.
"This medicine smells a little different from the medicine I smell on my mother."
"Did you give Mom two kinds of medicine?"
"That's impossible. The young lady only takes the medicine on this prescription and has never taken any other medicine." The nanny explained.
"Then why does Mom smell like other medicine?" Ruanruan asked puzzledly.
The nanny suddenly remembered something, "I remember that the pillow that the young lady used must have contained some herbs that can invigorate the brain and dissolve blood stasis."
"Go and get the square pillow that the young lady uses." Xiao Dinghan frowned.
After a while, the servant brought the pillow over.
Ruanruan hugged the pillow and took out the dagger that Xiao Shunan had given her from her backpack. She used the dagger to cut the pillow open and poured out the broken herbs inside.
She pinched some crushed herbs and sniffed them against her nose.
"Where did these things come from? When did I ask anyone to make these things for the young lady?" Xiao Dinghan stared at the broken herbs on the ground.
The nanny said, "The princess specially had a pillow made for the young lady, saying it would help her recover. I didn't dare give it to her carelessly, nor did I dare offend the princess. I consulted a doctor, and the doctor's words echoed the princess's: it wouldn't harm the young lady. That's why I gave it to her."
