Xiao Lingyu hurriedly bent over to take the emperor's pulse and gave him a few injections.
"Sister-in-law, is father okay?" Feng Jinyu was very worried.
He heard clearly what Xiao Lingyu said at the door just now.
Not only was he going to lose his beloved grandmother, but his father was also likely to be in danger.
"It's nothing serious. Father is just anxious. He will be fine after a good rest."
"Li Haiying, why don't you send the emperor back to rest quickly?"
"It's the emperor." Li Haiying responded and carefully carried the emperor out with his guards.
"Eunuch Ying." Li Haiying heard Xiao Lingyu calling him and hurriedly turned back.
"Here, this is the new Xihanxiang. I'll send the old one over later."
Li Haiying happily took it and said, "It's the Queen, I will bring it to you later."
Xiao Lingyu turned around and saw Feng Jinyu still there. "Saint King, it's late at night. You can't stay up all night. Go back and get some rest. Leave this to me and the Emperor."
Feng Jinyu glanced at the Empress Dowager, who was still being pricked with silver needles on the bed, and asked, "Sister-in-law, will the Empress Dowager wake up tomorrow?"
"Don't worry, you will wake up."
Not long after Feng Jinyu left, Li Haiying brought over the almost empty bottle of Xihanxiang.
Xiao Lingyu opened the bottle and sniffed it carefully, and found that there was nothing tampered with.
Why did these two people have nightmares?
Su Xingyi watched her movements, but because Yun Gu and the others were guarding outside the door, he didn't say anything. He just asked, "Yu'er, are you going to stay here all night?"
"No need." Xiao Lingyu immediately let Aunt Yun in. "Aunt Yun, the Empress Dowager will finish the acupuncture treatment later. If the fever doesn't rise tonight, he'll be able to wake up tomorrow morning. The Emperor and I are in the next courtyard. If you find any emergencies at night, please call me immediately."
"Yes, Queen." Yun Gu felt uneasy and asked, "Queen, how long can you hold on?"
Xiao Lingyu handed a prescription to Yun Gu and came to the bedside. "Grandmother's health has been much worse since she returned from the Holy King's Palace. She couldn't stand any more stimulation. Now she's been frightened again. Her internal organs are severely damaged to the point of being irreparable. Now she can only be slowly nurtured. As for how long she can hold out, I can't say for sure."
After saying that, Xiao Lingyu raised his hand and pulled out the needles one by one.
Yun Gu looked at Xiao Lingyu pulling out the needle with a serious expression. Thinking of what the Queen had said before, a glimmer of hope rose in her heart.
If the Empress knew what nightmares the Emperor and the Empress Dowager were having, could she prescribe the right medicine to cure the Empress Dowager?
After Xiao Lingyu removed the needle, Yun Gu whispered, "Empress, if you knew what kind of dream the Grand Empress Dowager had, would you be able to prescribe the right medicine to cure her?"
Xiao Lingyu was slightly stunned. Yun Gu was truly sincere towards the Grand Empress Dowager. "Now..."
"Then tell me what the dream was like?" Su Xingyi suddenly asked Yun Gu, interrupting Xiao Lingyu.
Yun Gu looked at Su Xingyi and didn't dare to say anything.
How could she say in front of the Emperor that the Empress Dowager fell ill because she was frightened by her dream of Empress Fu'an?
If this were to be said out loud, wouldn't it mean that the Empress Dowager had killed Empress Fu'an?
The emperor knows the truth. If the Empress Dowager really passed away, could she be buried in the imperial mausoleum with the highest royal etiquette?
After all, Empress Fu'an's father and mother also lived in the Royal West Garden.
"I don't know for now. Tomorrow, when the Grand Empress Dowager wakes up, I will try to ask her if she still remembers the dream."
Xiao Lingyu couldn't help but pursed his lips, not daring to tell his true dream in front of the emperor.
If it were to be said out loud, wouldn't it be a disguised admission that the Empress Dowager was the mastermind behind the murder of Empress Fu'an?
Haha, not only loyal, but also smart.
"Ms. Yun, even if we know what the dream was like now, it's too late. Now we can only slowly nurture it..."
Returning to the next courtyard, Su Xingyi couldn't wait to ask, "Has anyone tampered with Xi Hanxiang?"
"No, but it's indeed strange that Father and Grandmother had nightmares at the same time last night, and I haven't diagnosed any hallucinogenic drugs in their systems."
Su Xingyi frowned. This matter was not that simple. They had not had nightmares since they came to Huangjue Temple. How could they have had nightmares together last night?
Someone must have done it.
Su Xingyi quickly remembered that his master and mother had left Beijing a few days ago.
"Isn't this Xihanxiang almost finished? Its calming effect is certainly not as good as a whole bottle of Xihanxiang. The fact that they have nightmares again shows that they haven't really calmed down. Okay, let's stop talking. It's late. We should go to bed."
The next morning.
When Su Xingyi woke up and saw that Xiao Lingyu was still asleep, he tiptoed out of the room and went to the Empress Dowager's courtyard.
Fu Xuan came towards him carrying a bowl of steaming medicine.
"Your servant pays homage to His Majesty."
"Fu Xuan, has the Empress Dowager woken up?"
"Your Majesty, the Queen hasn't woken up yet. It might be too early. We need to wait a little longer."
Su Xingyi entered the room and looked at the Empress Dowager's neck.
The pinch marks here were obviously lighter than last night.
If it is man-made, the pinch marks will be very deep and can be seen at a glance.
But did the Empress Dowager really pinch herself?
The master knew a lot and his abilities were more powerful than he imagined.
If my mother comes to seek revenge on the Empress Dowager, Master will definitely have a way to help her disguise herself so that no one can detect a trace.
Does the master have the ability to make two people have nightmares at the same time?
Su Xingyi left the room and called Nie Ying.
"Take Su Yun, Nie Jiu and the others with you to find out who were the people who came to Huangjue Temple to burn incense on the 15th. Also, what were the retired emperor and the grand empress dowager doing that day, and who did they meet? The more detailed the better."
