"I want to get out too, but I can't get out by myself right now! Hurry up and help me out!"
The Emperor said in an annoyed tone.
He had just coughed up blood, and was completely weak and powerless, let alone able to climb over the Empress and get out of bed.
"Oh! Your Majesty, this old servant is here to help!"
Seeing this, Butler Mu hurriedly stepped forward to help, but since the Empress was by the bedside, Butler Mu had to get past the Empress to help the Emperor.
Butler Mu was quite old and not very strong to begin with. Plus, he was a man, and although he was an old man, he was still a man! The moment Butler Mu's hand passed over the Empress, the Emperor objected.
"Wait! Old Mu, get out of the way! What are you doing, a man, strutting around in front of my Empress? Get out of the way! Let Lin Yuxin help!"
The Emperor looked at the steward's hand with a disgusted expression, feeling very uncomfortable as he watched it dangle around his Empress.
Only she could approach her own empress; no other man, not even an older one, was allowed.
Butler: ...?
This old servant didn't want this either!
Lin Yuxin: ...?
You're really making a fuss! You're even jealous of an old man!
"Your Majesty, that's not right. Steward Mu is a man, and I am a woman! According to your logic, I can only be touched by my future husband, so I cannot help you up. Why don't you get down yourself?"
Lin Yuxin didn't want to indulge him. This dog emperor was just making a fuss. Even at a time like this, he was still jealous. Why didn't he just die of jealousy?
"You...you scoundrel...I'm going to punish you!"
The Emperor was embarrassed by Lin Yuxin's rebuke and was trembling with anger. He wanted to punish her, but after thinking for a long time, he came up with the idea of giving her a beating with a cane.
He might not even be able to kill Lin Yuxin now.
If that kid Li Xiaochen can fight him to the death, the Zhao family will rebel too.
Moreover, he had heard about Lin Yuxin's abilities from that kid Dan Dao. With her around, he knew that his throne as emperor would be more secure.
Moreover, she has quite a few treasures, and it wouldn't hurt to get along with her. However, this girl is too bold and often makes him furious.
"You're not allowed to yell at your sister!"
Upon hearing that this might be the man who wanted to hit his sister, Xiao Hao immediately frowned, looked at him coldly, and spoke in a cold voice.
The Emperor was taken aback. Had he been scolded by his own son? Well, that added another reason why he couldn't kill Lin Yuxin.
Even though his son had scolded him, what could he do if he couldn't muster any anger? His son was siding with outsiders, and even as emperor, he was powerless to do anything about it. He could only mutter sheepishly:
"I was just joking!"
You are my son, so you have the final say. If you weren't my son, I would drag you out and beat you with a stick.
Seeing that the Emperor was angry, Lin Yuxin was afraid that the Emperor would take his anger out on Xiao Hao.
Moreover, with the fighting raging outside, he didn't want to waste any more time talking to this clueless emperor.
If the father and son start arguing in the house, she wouldn't know whose side to take, so she had no choice but to go and help them herself.
She walked to the bedside, scooped up the Empress in her arms, and then said to the stunned butler:
"Butler Mu, it's your turn. Go and help our esteemed Emperor down!"
"Oh, yes!"
Butler Mu came to his senses and hurriedly stepped forward to help, carefully helping the Emperor off the bed. Lin Yuxin then took the opportunity to put the Empress back on the bed.
The Emperor was then helped by Butler Mu and Xiao Hao to lie down on the soft couch in the outer room.
When Lin Yuxin came out, the Emperor was already lying down.
Lin Yuxin walked over and, without saying a word, immediately began to take his pulse.
Not long after, Lin Yuxin raised an eyebrow, glanced at the Emperor, and then took his pulse for a while before withdrawing her hand.
"How about it?"
When the Emperor saw Lin Yuxin's strange expression, his heart skipped a beat. What was wrong? Was he about to die?
Xiao Hao stood to the side with a blank expression, looking at Lin Yuxin with a hint of concern in his eyes, hoping to hear good news.
"Your Majesty, I was just marveling at how Your Majesty truly is protected by the dragon's aura, that you are unharmed even after all this!"
Lin Yuxin said with an admiring expression.
emperor:……?
Why does this sound like a compliment to him?
Speak like a human being!
The Emperor grew impatient and glared at her.
Lin Yuxin then put away her joking attitude and began to seriously answer the Emperor's questions:
"Your Majesty, the slow-acting poison you were given has not been around for long, but this poison damages the heart and lungs. In addition, you have been burdened with too many worries for many years, and this has been festering in your heart. If left untreated, it will eventually lead to your death."
"However, you took the Heart-Protecting Pill that I had sent to the palace before, and the effect was very obvious, so your heart and lungs were not damaged much. In addition, you vomited blood because you were angry, which caused some damage, but it also helped to expel a lot of the pent-up anger that you had accumulated over the years."
"That means you've turned misfortune into blessing. Although the poison hasn't been completely eliminated, there are no major health problems. As long as the poison is eliminated and you recuperate for a while, you'll be fine."
After listening to Lin Yuxin's long and winding explanation, he finally understood the last sentence: as long as the poison was neutralized, he would be fine.
"Then hurry up and solve it!"
The Emperor urged anxiously, as the fighting outside grew louder and louder. He had to go out and see if his audacious Crown Prince was still alive.
Lin Yuxin sighed inwardly, but her hands didn't stop. She resignedly began to help the emperor detoxify.
[Working stiff, working spirit, I'm banging my head against the wall because of the constraints of my job!!]
He silently repeated the instructions several times in his mind before he managed to suppress the urge to knock the emperor unconscious with a punch and focused on administering the acupuncture.
