Chapter 238 He was poisoned



"Ayue, I like it too!" Yu Wenran came over and said dissatisfiedly because Gu Yanyue only agreed to do it for Qin Ruoruo alone.

"Of course I won't forget you." Yu Wenran was so jealous that he almost burst out. Gu Yanyue had no choice but to coax him, "When we return to the capital, I will do it for you again."

When He Fangyan heard Gu Yanyue say "you guys", he raised his head from the bowl, looked at Gu Yanyue expectantly and asked, "Does the Queen have a share for me too?"

Gu Yanyue smiled and said, "Of course there will be, but I'll have to trouble you and Ruoruo to come to the palace together." For her, the happiest moment is now. Some people like the dishes she cooks, and it brings them a sense of happiness. That's enough.

Seeing that Qin Ruoruo and He Fangyan had almost finished eating, Yu Wenran stood up and prepared to clear the dishes.

As soon as he stood up from the chair, his face changed drastically and his whole body trembled. Suddenly, his throat felt slightly sweet, and then a mouthful of blood spurted onto the ground.

Seeing this, Gu Yanyue stood up immediately and said in a trembling voice: "A Ran...you..."

Qin Ruoruo also stood up hurriedly and wanted to reach out to feel Yuwen Ran's pulse, but unexpectedly, she also spat out a mouthful of blood on her chest like Yuwen Ran. She was wearing a white dress today, and the blood stains on it were very eye-catching.

He Fangyan, who was standing by, also vomited blood like the two of them.

Among the people present, except for Gu Yanyue and the palace maid she brought with her, everyone else vomited blood. If they didn't know Gu Yanyue well enough to know that she would never do such a thing as poisoning someone, they would have thought that Gu Yanyue was poisoning them.

Qin Ruoruo took out a bottle of detoxification pills from her arms, took one herself first, then poured out two more and handed them to He Fangyan and Yuwen Ran.

When Qin Ruoruo came out of the capital, she specially brought this bottle of detoxification pills. As long as the poison is not mixed together like the one Yuwen Ran was infected with last time, it can be cured.

After Qin Ruoruo and He Fangyan took the detoxification pills, Qin Ruoruo took their own and He Fangyan's pulses and confirmed that they were basically fine.

I thought Yuwen Ran was the same, but I didn't expect that after taking the detoxification pill, Yuwen Ran not only did not get rid of the poison, but vomited blood even more severely.

After taking the detoxification pill, Yu Wenran felt a surge of blood in his chest. He couldn't hold it back and spat it out with a "puff" sound, staining his front red and even raising a blood mist in front of him.

Gu Yanyue watched Yuwen Ran vomiting more and more severely, and quickly reached out to support him, exclaiming, "A Ran!"

As for what Gu Yanyue said next, Yu Wenran could no longer hear clearly.

After he heard Gu Yanyue's call of "Aran", he felt his vision blurry, and then he fell straight down. The last thing he saw was Gu Yanyue's anxious expression.

He wanted to raise his hand to say "I'm fine" to Gu Yanyue, but before he could open his mouth, Yu Wenran passed out.

Gu Yanyue started to panic the moment she saw Yuwen Ran vomiting blood. Now seeing that Yuwen Ran was unconscious, she was a little at a loss.

She looked up at Qin Ruoruo while holding the unconscious Yuwen Ran. She asked in a trembling voice, "Ruoruo, why did Ah Ran suddenly faint? Didn't you and Master He already clear the poison after taking the detoxification pills? Why did it get worse for Ah Ran?"

"Sister Gu, quickly get someone to carry His Majesty back to his room!"

Qin Ruoruo played the role of the backbone at this time. She asked He Fangyan to call a strong servant to carry Yuwen Ran back to the room, and then comforted Gu Yanyue, "Sister Gu, as long as I am here, His Majesty will be fine."

Qin Ruoruo never liked having people watching when she was treating patients, so Gu Yanyue could only wait outside with He Fangyan.

A few days ago, He Fangyan and Yuwen Ran were waiting outside, waiting for Qin Ruoruo to treat Gu Yanyue inside. Now, in just a few days, the situation has changed. Gu Yanyue woke up, but unexpectedly, Yuwen Ran collapsed again.

After Yuwen Ran was carried into the room, Gu Yanyue gradually calmed down her turbulent heart and forced herself to calm down. Yuwen Ran was now unconscious due to the poisoning. If she collapsed at this moment, or if she could not recover, it would give Yuwen Ran, Qin Ruoruo, and He Fangyan's poisoner an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Gu Yanyue called over the head guard who was guarding the courtyard and asked in a deep voice, "Did anyone suspicious enter the courtyard today? Or did anything happen that was different from the past few days?"

The head guard knew that the person lying inside was Yuwen Ran, the current emperor. If anything happened to him, the country would definitely be in chaos.

Therefore, he did not answer Gu Yanyue's question immediately, for fear that he would remember it wrong or forget some details.

However, the head guard compared the people who came in and out of the villa today with the people brought by Yuwen Ran, and found that no suspicious people had sneaked in.

The people who came in and out of the villa to purchase today were all familiar faces brought out by Yu Wenran from the palace in the capital, and there were no new faces.

The guard shook his head and said to Gu Yanyue, "Your Majesty, I haven't found any suspicious people or things today."

"Your Majesty! I have already gathered all the maids serving in the kitchen and those who went out to buy groceries today, and I am just waiting for your interrogation."

Zheng Hai trotted in from the small gate of the east courtyard and arrived in front of Gu Yanyue. From Gu Yanyue's perspective, she found that Zheng Hai's forehead was already sweating from the heat.

To work up a sweat in such cold weather with heavy snow, one must have been running in the snow for a long time. This shows how fast Zheng Hai ran.

As early as when Yuwen Ran was carried back to the East Courtyard by the guards, Gu Yanyue gave an order to Zheng Hai, who had been guarding the East Courtyard, asking him to gather all the palace maids in the kitchen and the people who went out to purchase goods before the news of Yuwen Ran's poisoning spread, and to wait for her orders after the rest was done.

Yuwen Ran was lying unconscious in the room. Besides Yuwen Ran, the only other person of high status in the courtyard was Gu Yanyue. So, they carried out Gu Yanyue's orders without hesitation.

"Then I'll trouble Eunuch Zheng to bring someone to question them for me." Gu Yanyue stared at Yu Wenran, whose fate remained unknown in the room, and then instructed Zheng Hai, "Remember not to resort to any form of private punishment. If they are innocent and yet you treat them like this for no reason, they will definitely be dissatisfied in the future."
