When Ms. Zhao Yuzhu saw Qi Yunxiao carrying Shen Qingyu and running back, her legs went weak with fright. She struggled to follow him, repeatedly asking, "What happened to her? What's wrong with her?"
"She was ambushed and is now unconscious!"
"How could that be? Weren't you protecting her? Aren't there so many Dragon Guards around?" Zhao Yuzhu asked hoarsely.
"It was my oversight."
Qi Yunxiao's mind was in turmoil, filled with regret!
He had thought that the biggest hidden danger in the capital had been eliminated, and that His Majesty had no ill intentions towards Shen Qingyu. He also believed that Shen Qingyu was just a country woman and that no powerful family would dare to make a move against her under his nose. He had become complacent.
Clearly, someone wanted Shen Qingyu dead!
Who exactly is it?
Is it Prince Cheng?
Or stepmother?
for what?
Why would someone risk being found out and suffering a vicious revenge by poisoning her?
These assassins are not something that ordinary families can cultivate; their roots must be in the capital!
Among those aristocratic families!
"Dragon Guards! Investigate! Send men to investigate towards the capital!"
Qi Yunxiao's eyes were bloodshot; he was clearly furious!
"Yes!" Chen San replied and immediately made the arrangements.
Shen Qingyu found herself floating, hovering about two meters in the air, looking down at Qi Yunxiao anxiously.
She felt like she was watching a play.
So, he really cares about me that much?
Or is it only because she is the mother of his children?
Seeing her mother so distraught that she almost fainted, she became very anxious.
When Da Bao and Xiao Bao saw Shen Qingyu unconscious, they cried out in panic, fearing they would lose their mother.
"My dear, Mommy's here..."
Shen Qingyu felt extremely distressed and went forward to hug the two children, only to find that her hands passed right through their bodies, without the children noticing.
Qi Yunxiao tried to sort things out, but the children's crying was too loud, and his head was throbbing. He couldn't help but shout, "Shut up!"
The two children shuddered simultaneously, and their voices stopped abruptly.
"How could you yell at a child like that?!" Shen Qingyu was furious. She shoved Qi Yunxiao, but her arm still passed right through his body...
Am I dead?
What will happen to Mom if she really dies?
She went through so much trouble to get here, is it possible for her to go back?
If we can't go back, and I leave her alone in this strange world, how will she survive?
Shen Qingyu became terrified, floating blankly in the air, staring at her unconscious self and the panicked crowd below.
Fortunately, after shouting, Qi Yunxiao immediately realized his loss of composure, took two deep breaths, and apologized to the two children.
"I'm sorry, Dad was too anxious and yelled at you. I need to find a way to save your mother. Don't cry, go next door with Grandma, okay?"
Da Bao and Xiao Bao nodded in fear.
Xiao Bao pressed on, "Dad, will Mom wake up?"
Qi Yunxiao gritted his teeth: "I will definitely wake up."
Xiao Bao wanted to ask more, but Da Bao grabbed his hand and said, "Don't ask anymore. Don't disturb Dad's thinking. Let's go next door first."
Zhao Yuzhu calmed down and led the children to the next room.
Listening to Qi Yunxiao issuing commands one by one next to her, Zhao Yuzhu pondered for a moment, then took out a whistle from her collar and blew it.
Chen San heard the whistle from afar, his body trembled, and he turned to look towards Zhao Yuzhu's room.
A tall, burly man wearing a black ghost mask ran towards Zhao Yuzhu's room as fast as a wisp of smoke.
Zhao Yuzhu coldly ordered, "Shen Qingyu is injured. Take some people to investigate and find out who did it."
"Here!" The tall man vanished like a puff of smoke.
Chen San watched the man walk away before realizing that his back was completely soaked!
"How could it be her? How is this possible?!" Chen San muttered, looking as if his worldview had been turned upside down.
The Crown Prince's wife was injured and fell into a coma, and within a day, doctors from the surrounding prefectures all arrived.
After the diagnosis, the results were all unfavorable.
The doctors said that the Crown Princess was not simply knocked unconscious, but that while she was being knocked unconscious, a poisoned needle was inserted into the back of her neck...
As for how to detoxify?
The doctors all shook their heads.
Qi Yunxiao was furious. The Dragon Guards were in a terrible state, and the second-year high school students were beaten until their skin was torn and bleeding again.
But this time he felt no resentment at all: his master's wife had been assassinated right under his nose, and he was already grateful to have survived.
They deserve it.
Cheng Ping and Yu Qiao arrived. Cheng Ping carefully examined Shen Qingyu's condition, listened to the doctors' words, and left with a sullen face.
"Qi Yunxiao, don't worry, I will find out who this person is and why he attacked her!" Cheng Ping said through gritted teeth as he left.
Yu Qiao looked at the unconscious Shen Qingyu with a tense and complicated expression.
Such a woman, who gets along so well with me and who looks at me with fondness no matter how outrageous I am, must never have anything happen to me!
That damned Cheng Ping! If he could find a way to catch the murderer or save Qingyu, I wouldn't blame him for liking Qingyu...
Zhao Yuzhu immediately sent people to find the legendary Physician Mo.
This legendary doctor is said to be from the Miao ethnic group and is skilled in using Gu poison, capable of curing all kinds of poisons.
The next day, a retired imperial physician was found in a neighboring prefecture and was brought over by the Imperial Guards overnight.
After examining Shen Qingyu's symptoms, the imperial physician shook his head: "If this poison is to be cured, the medicine will likely ruin the young lady's appearance! However, if a method to detoxify is not found within seven days and treatment begins, her life will gradually wither away, and there will be no possibility of recovery."
