"Big brother." Consort Shu held Mu Qianqian in one arm and reached out to pull Lu Zhaolin with the other.
I panicked.
He lost his balance and almost fell to the ground.
"Your Highness." Bin'er ran over and helped her up. "Your Highness, are you alright?"
"Quickly! Go and fetch the imperial physician."
Mu Qianqian frowned as she stared at the dark red blood that Lu Zhaolin had vomited.
Oh no!
He was perfectly fine just a moment ago, how did he suddenly start vomiting blood?
Could it be because of the two Gu worms inside his body?
Those two Gu worms were raised from a young age using poisonous snakes, spiders, ants, and centipedes; they were extremely poisonous.
These days she has been looking for an opportunity to force those two Gu worms out of his body.
Unfortunately, a suitable opportunity has not yet been found.
Furthermore, even if she removed the Gu worms from his body, she had nowhere to keep them.
She needs to find an opportunity to summon the seven-colored bird.
We should take those two Gu worms to the Immortal Valley and raise them with vines.
Just so you don't accidentally let your guard down one day.
Then he'll run off and cause trouble for others.
The already chaotic side hall became even more chaotic after Lu Zhaolin fainted.
Xiao Shunzi and several eunuchs worked together to lift him onto the bed.
Physician Xie rushed over and knelt beside the bed.
He placed his fingertips on Lu Zhaolin's pulse and closed his eyes for a moment.
He turned and walked up to Consort Shu: "Your Majesty, Young Master Lu only suffered a sudden attack of anger and vomited blood. I will arrange a room for him. He only needs to rest and should not be upset."
He was so angry he was about to explode!
Consort Shu's brow twitched.
Could it be because of Princess Chang'an?
"Thank you for your trouble, Imperial Physician Xie." Consort Shu said softly, "Please ask Imperial Physician Xie to prescribe a medicine to help my brother get better."
Physician Xie nodded, but showed no intention of getting up.
He looked around and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, may I speak to you in private?"
Consort Shu paused for a moment, but still followed Imperial Physician Xie to the outside of the side hall.
"Your Highness, please forgive my limited medical skills, but when I was taking Young Master Lu's pulse just now, I felt a..."
As he spoke, Physician Xie wiped the fine sweat from his forehead.
"Actually, I was quite surprised to see that Young Master Lu was unharmed when I entered the palace this morning. I had personally examined Young Master Lu's pulse before, and at that time, the poisoning was indeed quite severe."
"Perhaps it's because Young Master Lu has the protection of the royal family that he was able to recover so quickly, but..."
"Physician Xie, please speak frankly." Consort Shu said in a gentle voice, "You have always been the physician I trust the most. If there is anything wrong with my brother's health, we should make plans as soon as possible."
“It’s not that it’s bad, it’s just…” Physician Xie looked troubled: “It’s just that when I was taking his pulse just now, I found that there was a very strong pulse in Young Master Lu’s body that did not belong to him.”
Consort Shu: ? ? ?
"I'm sorry, I don't understand medicine. What does this mean?" Consort Shu asked, puzzled.
"Your Majesty, I am not entirely certain. Such things are extremely rare in the Yuan Kingdom, but are more likely to be found in the Ning Kingdom." Physician Xie hesitated before continuing.
Ningguo!?
Consort Shu's brow twitched, as if she had grasped the unspoken meaning in Physician Xie's words.
She suddenly remembered that when she returned to the General's Mansion during her last visit home, she saw Lu Zhaofeng holding an ancient book before leaving. The book contained information about witchcraft and sorcery.
"When I was young, I traveled with my master to practice medicine. I was fortunate enough to examine a similar pulse once, but many years have passed. Perhaps I have made a mistake. Perhaps I should let Physician Li come..."
