Chapter 239 Xiao Ji is in a coma!
Xie Yao and Wei Chan looked at each other and had a bad feeling in their hearts. At the same time, they looked at Xiao Ji with concern.
"Your Highness, what happened in the North?"
Last time, Boss Wei mentioned in his letter that the northern border seemed unstable, and coupled with the current situation in the capital...
Xie Yao, Xiao Ji and others all knew what was going on.
"Hmm." Xiao Jibiao looked solemn and had an unpleasant expression. He said, "There have been frequent disturbances in the northern border. I'm afraid..."
Xie Yao and Wei Chan understood what Xiao Ji had not finished saying.
I'm afraid war is about to break out!
Wei Chan looked stern, "Your Highness, Crown Princess, if this is true, I want to go back to the North!"
The Wei family had already fallen into decline the year she was born. She grew up in the northern border, and if it came to the critical moment, she would never be willing to betray them.
Wei Chan's eyes were full of sincerity, "Please allow me, Your Highness and the Crown Princess."
Xie Yao and Xiao Ji looked at each other, with helpless expressions on their faces. It was not a matter of whether they were right or wrong.
It was the emperor's idea that Wei Chan returned to Beijing, because the military power of the Zhenbei Army was in the hands of Wei Er. To put it bluntly, Wei Chan was a hostage.
The emperor even wanted to marry Wei Chan to Xiao Hong and let her stay in the capital.
If she wanted to leave Beijing, she was afraid the emperor would not agree.
Wei Chan was silent for a moment, then said, "Your Highness and the Crown Princess, just pretend I never said anything." A hint of determination flashed in her eyes. At worst, she could just run away quietly...
"Go if you want." Xie Yao held Wei Chan's hand, and the warm palm passed strength to her, "I'll take care of everything."
Wei Chan was slightly startled, then she smiled and said with emotion: "Crown Princess, you are so kind..."
Xie Yao reached out and hugged Wei Chan, patting her back gently.
Xiao Ji coughed and said, "The Crown Princess is right." Wei Chan is not an ordinary person. She can play a greater role in the northern border.
Pei Chen quickly arrived at the Prince's Mansion, and after getting the things, he went directly to the Tianlao to meet Duke Dingguo Lin Jia.
Originally, the Lin family should have been charged with crimes long ago, but because the Lin family members were stubborn, Pei Chen kept suppressing the charges by saying that there were still some details that had not been confirmed.
But someone on Xiao Ning's side had been urging the matter, wanting to determine the charges as soon as possible and either exile the person or behead him.
If Xiao Ning's attention had not been diverted these days, I'm afraid this matter would have been suppressed long ago...
The Grand Princess's Mansion.
"Your Highness." The fox man walked in, knelt on one knee and said, "I just received news that Pei Chen went to the Heavenly Prison after leaving the Crown Prince's Mansion."
Xiao Ning sat on the armchair, her thin shirt and gauze could not hide her beautiful figure. A cold light flashed in her eyes, "It seems that they really want to kill me."
"In that case... you can't blame me..."
The corners of Xiao Ning's lips raised in a dangerous arc, "This is a gift from me... I hope my brother and sister-in-law like it."
The fox man knelt on the ground, lowered his head and dared not utter a word.
Xiao Ning thought of something, and smiled. He raised his eyelids slightly and said lazily, "Have you sent all the grapes you just picked to the palace?"
"Yes." The fox man answered immediately, "He was sent to the palace early in the morning. His Majesty and the Queen have seen your filial piety."
"Yes." Xiao Ning nodded. "My royal brother and several of my younger brothers also sent gifts, but I can't let them say that I am partial to some and not to others."
The fox man responded again and immediately turned around to make arrangements.
After the fox man left, Xiao Ning slowly picked up the letter on the table, opened it, looked at the contents, and the corners of her mouth slowly curled up.
…
Prince's Mansion.
After Pei Chen left, Wei Chan was not in a hurry to leave. Xie Yao had been recuperating since giving birth.
After her protest, she finally succeeded in getting Xiao Ji to agree to let her practice again.
Wei Chan stayed today to teach her.
The study was spacious, and the two of them could do whatever they wanted in it, while Xiao Ji sat aside and watched.
Suddenly, he frowned and felt something was strange.
He immediately got up and left the study.
But as soon as I stood up, I felt a black screen in front of my eyes...
Bang!
The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground startled Xie Yao and Wei Chan! They turned around and looked -
"Your Highness!"
Xie Yao was shocked!
The person lying on the ground was Xiao Ji, his face was pale, his eyes were closed, and there was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.
He actually fainted!
"Sinan!" Xie Yao said sharply, "Call the palace doctor, call the palace doctor quickly!"
Si Nan appeared immediately and was also shocked when he saw the scene. He immediately turned around and called for help.
Xie Yao and Wei Chan didn't dare to touch Xiao Ji at all, fearing that something might go wrong if they touched him carelessly, and they just stood there anxiously.
"Slow down, slow down..." Soon, the voice of the court doctor was heard.
Xie Yao and Wei Chan looked over and saw the court doctor being carried on Si Nan's shoulders and walking quickly into the room.
Si Nan put the court doctor down and said anxiously, "Go check on His Highness."
Palace doctor: “…”
He wanted to, but he felt dizzy and turned around twice before he could find his direction.
After seeing Xiao Ji's appearance clearly, he immediately swallowed the complaints in his mouth and checked Xiao Ji's condition with a serious expression.
Xie Yao's eyes turned red with anxiety, but she didn't dare to make any sound to disturb the court physician who was taking her pulse. She just stared at the court physician with burning eyes.
Seeing the palace doctor's frown and serious expression, Xie Yao's heart sank...
She looked at Sinan and nodded slightly to him, the meaning of which was self-evident.
Si Nan's expression was also somewhat solemn. After being stunned for a moment, he nodded slightly to show that he understood.
"Crown Princess." After a long while, the court doctor finally spoke, "Do you still remember that last time, Your Highness was stimulated, so the witchcraft poison in your body became more active?"
Xie Yao's face darkened, "This time... was it also provoked by malicious intent?"
The court doctor nodded, "That's right."
"Then at this moment, Your Highness..." Xie Yao asked immediately.
The court doctor was embarrassed. "Crown Princess, my medical skills are limited. I can only try my best to delay the development of the witchcraft poison. But your highness's condition... cannot be delayed any longer."
"If we don't find a way to cure it, I'm afraid the witchcraft poison in your Highness' body will...be cured sooner."
Xie Yao's guess was confirmed and her face changed drastically.
Fortunately, soon, the sound was heard outside the study again. It turned out that Si Nan had brought all the doctors who were placed in the villa over.
The originally spacious study was suddenly filled to the brim, leaving even Xie Yao and Wei Chan with no room to stand.
The doctors, led by the witch doctor and the court physician, were surrounding Xiao Ji and discussing his current condition.
"Crown Princess." Wei Chan also frowned, but still cared about Xie Yao, "Don't worry too much, His Highness will be safe."
Xie Yao couldn't laugh, so she forced a smile and listened to the witch doctors' discussion.
After a moment, she said, "Sinan, go look for someone."
Si Nan only needed to look at Xie Yao's expression to know who he was going to look for. At this moment, he hesitated for a rare moment.
Or leave quickly.
Xie Yao stepped into the study and glanced at everyone in the study. "May I ask everyone, what is the situation?"
this……
The doctors looked at each other in bewilderment. Finally, the witch doctor said, "Your Excellency's body has been attacked by witchcraft poison for many years. Your body is under great pressure. You already don't have much time left. Now..."
"We are incompetent, please forgive us!"
When the witch doctor said this, no one objected and they all lowered their heads...
At this moment, someone in the crowd spoke up, "If it's that person..." As soon as he opened his mouth, his clothes were pulled, and he immediately swallowed his words back.
But the expression on his face was a little bit resentful.
It is common for a man to have three wives and four concubines. In the face of a life-and-death situation, he still has the leisure to be jealous. It is really...
Can't tell priorities apart!
But this person only dared to think about it in his heart, and did not dare to show it too obviously on his face...
Xie Yao saw it clearly, a hint of coldness flashed across her eyes, she passed over this person and turned to ask the others, "Is there no way?"
No one dared to speak.
Xie Yao: "... please step back first." Her expression looked a little ugly.
The doctors looked at each other in bewilderment. The one who was just feeling indignant couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you, Madam, drive away the person who could have saved the noble man?"
Why are you pretending to be nice in front of them now?
Although he didn't know how a noble man like you could be blinded by a woman and think that a woman was more important than his life...
But he thought that even if the noble man couldn't tell the difference, could this lady still not advise him?
In the end, don't drive away the people who can save others and then blame them for not being able to save people.
As soon as this person opened his mouth, his mouth was covered again, and he was dragged out by someone he had a better relationship with.
What are you saying? Are you trying to kill yourself?
But it's too late!
His words had already been spoken, and Xie Yao heard them clearly. She turned her eyes slightly and swept a cold gaze over this man.
The man felt a chill on his back when he was looked at by Xie Yao with such an oppressive gaze. His legs became slightly weak and he subconsciously wanted to hide backwards.
It took him a second to react and he straightened his back in a pretentious manner.
Xie Yao ignored him and looked past him, nodding slightly to Yuyan. Yuyan stepped forward with a cold face, "Everyone, please move."
The man who had just spoken was dragged away by the people around him. It was not until he left the study that someone whispered, "Why are you saying this? Wasn't that your own decision?"
The man muttered in a low voice, "Even if it was the noble's own decision, she, as his wife, did not play the role of admonishing him..."
The man was covered in mouth again.
"Cousin."
Wei Chan was also worried about Xiao Ji, but at this moment she still tried to comfort him: "Don't take this person's words to heart, they don't know anything at all!"
Although she grew up in the northern border, she only knew about Xiao Ji through letters and rumors in the capital.
But during the days she returned to Beijing, she saw it very clearly.
The relationship between the prince's cousin and his wife is very good, and the cousin values Xie Yao more than his own life.
Xie Yao held Xiao Ji's hand, forced a curl of her lips, looked at Wei Chan, and wanted to say something but couldn't.
She was flustered.
His Highness's hands were always warm, and whenever he held her hands in his palms, she always felt full of security.
At this moment, His Highness's hands were cold and drooping weakly...
Xie Yao's hand unconsciously stroked Xiao Ji's big palm, as if she wanted to warm him in this way.
"Your Highness..." Xie Yao murmured.
Wei Chan also felt uncomfortable watching this scene.
soon……
There were footsteps outside the study again. The voices came before the person entered, "Xie Yao, have you thought about it?"
It was Shanshan, and there was undisguised pride in her voice.
But as soon as Si Nan walked in and saw Xiao Ji lying on the ground, she was also shocked. She didn't bother to mock Xie Yao anymore and quickly stepped forward to check on Xiao Ji's condition.
She stretched out two fingers and placed them across the tip of Xiao Ji's nose to confirm that he was still breathing, then she let out a sigh of relief.
Her eyebrows relaxed, she stood up, clapped her hands, and looked at Xie Yao, "You want me to save him?"
Xie Yao didn't rush to speak. She was thinking about Shan Shan's behavior when she entered the room just now. She was originally leisurely, but when she saw His Highness fainted, she immediately quickened her pace to enter the room.
After confirming that His Highness was safe, I immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Her last guess and suspicion turned out to be correct. Shanshan had other plans for His Highness.
"Xie Yao?" Xie Yao's silence made Shan Shan a little dissatisfied, she frowned and called out again.
Shanshan is not tall and is very petite. Although her body proportions are good, her chubby face and big round eyes make her look very childish.
The smug smile on his face looked a little bit incongruous at this moment.
Xie Yao looked at her. Si Bei hadn't returned from Shu yet, but His Highness was already unconscious. If he delayed any further...
"Save him." Xie Yao spoke, she chose to follow the voice in her heart.
Her heart told her that she really wanted Xiao Ji to live, even if she had to pay a high price for it.
Shan Shan's lips curled up, "I want to marry him!"
Although the two failed to reach an agreement last time, they already had a general intention. Each of them had weaknesses, so they each took a step back.
but……
Who made Xiaoji's situation urgent and Xie Yao need help from her?
If we don't raise the price now, when will we?
Xie Yao suddenly raised her eyes to look at Shan Shan, her eyes were cold and dangerous, "Are you sure?"
Being looked at like this, Shanshan's heart skipped a beat, and her expression was stiff and unnatural for a moment, but she quickly said, "Don't stare at me."
"You've seen Xiao Ji's situation. He's like this now... Only I can save him. Anyway, this is the condition!"
Shan Shan crossed her arms and raised her chin slightly, "Don't accuse me of forcing you to buy or sell. You can choose not to agree."
The ending is that Xiao Ji dies.
"We are both women, why do you have to marry someone who doesn't have you in his heart?" Wei Chan said, "Even if you marry my cousin, he won't even look at you."
"Humph." Shan Shan said, "That's my business! You don't need to worry about it."
Shanshan walked to the desk at the side, sat on it with her hands on the table, and crossed her legs.
The calves with smooth and powerful lines were swaying by the table, looking very leisurely.
She then picked up a piece of dessert on the table and stuffed it into her mouth, looking sideways at Xie Yao, "Xie Yao, you just need to tell me whether you agree to this condition or not."
"Xiao Ji, will you save him or not?"
save!
Xie Yao gave the answer in her heart almost instantly, she must save the person.
"Shanshan, you——"
"Xie Yao, stop threatening me." Shan Shan interrupted Xie Yao, "We all have weaknesses, but the one who is more anxious now... is you."
"Xie Yao, admit it, you just can't bear to see Xiao Ji die." Shan Shan was in a good mood, "You lose~~"
It is precisely because she sees this that she is so calm at the moment.
Xie Yao looked at Shan Shan deeply and said in a deep voice, "Save her."
