Chapter 218 The Queen Mother is Seriously Ill
The two of them could not go on because Han Lang heard some noise outside the window.
He pushed Feng Aoqing to the ground and jumped out of the window. He saw three people kneeling in the yard waiting for him.
"Commander Ying Shen of the Imperial Feather Guard greets His Royal Highness Prince Yu. I am here to take you back to the capital." The man kneeling in the front raised the token in his hand.
The Royal Feather Guard is the Queen's personal guard, responsible for all the Queen's daily security and travel needs. These people are the Queen's confidants.
"What?" Han Lang had seen Ying Shen before. He was someone his mother trusted, so he asked coldly.
"The queen is seriously ill," the man said anxiously, "I was just about to go to Hantian Valley to look for you, but I didn't expect to meet you here."
"Nonsense, where do these lame excuses come from? Mother has always been in good health. I didn't hear that she was sick when I left." Han Lang cursed.
"Your Highness, how dare I lie to you about such a thing?" Ying Shen said as he took out a brocade bag from his arms and handed it to Han Lang with both hands.
Feng Aoqing called from behind: "Wait, I don't know if it's poisonous, give it to me first."
Feng Aoqing was very calm at this time. She took the bag with a handkerchief and opened it.
Inside was a blood-stained handkerchief that had turned black. She didn't pay attention to what was written on it, but the smell of medicine on the handkerchief caught her attention.
Han Lang asked nervously: "How is it? Is it poisonous?"
Feng Aoqing shook her head: "It's not poisonous, but the blood on this handkerchief is human blood, and it smells like medicine. It must have been spit out from the mouth."
Feng Aoqing's face looked a little ugly. She smelled that one of the medicines was for prolonging life, which ordinary people could not eat or afford.
Han Lang looked at Feng Aoqing, and the two walked away a few steps. The three people in the yard were still kneeling, not moving.
Han Lang frowned and asked, "Ao Qing, is this made? Can it be made?"
Feng Aoqing saw that he was visibly nervous.
So she said to him calmly, "If you want to have the baby, it's fine, but you need to take this medicine. If you're not seriously ill, it will be extremely harmful to your body. If it's to get you back, then I'm risking my life. If you want to know if it's your mother's blood, I can test it."
Han Lang waved his hand: "It doesn't matter. If you want to cheat, there are many ways to do it."
Feng Aoqing nodded: "Yes, that's what I mean. If your mother is really sick, we can't afford to make this mistake. The cost of trial and error is too high, so we can only go back and take a look."
"You wait here for me to come back. I can't let you take any risks." Han Lang has also made a decision.
"Did what I said before go in vain? You know I won't let you go alone." Feng Aoqing was a little angry.
"But......"
"If I'm in danger here alone, who will take care of me?" Feng Aoqing asked back.
Han Lang was stunned. Yes! How could he feel at ease when she was here alone?
"Will you come back with me?"
"Of course, isn't your mother ill? Think about it, in this whole land of Jiuzhou, who else can save her life besides me? If I can't save her, then naturally no one can. It's only right for you to stay by her bedside and show your filial piety."
Han Lang then remembered that he was so focused on protecting her that he had forgotten her true abilities.
Without her, I don’t know how many times I would have died.
"You've died three times." Feng Aoqing raised three fingers as if she knew what he was thinking.
Feng Aoqing returned to the house and put away all her things.
Neither of them had even had time to relax before they set out on their journey again.
Someone helped drive the car, and Han Lang got in. He called Ying Shen in as well.
Just as he was about to enter, he heard two people say at the same time: "Take off your shoes."
In order to avoid wearing shoes in the car, Feng Aoqing laid a fluffy carpet between the bed and the car door. Most of the time, she would open the car door and lie there to talk to Han Lang who was driving the car.
When she was happy, she would cling to his back affectionately from behind and shake him so hard that he couldn't drive properly.
"Ah? My...my..." Ying Shen had been on the road for a long time and hadn't taken a shower for several days. It was strange that he could take off his shoes.
"Then don't come in and don't dirty Ao Qing's blanket. Just sit at the door." Han Lang opened the car door.
As soon as I sat down, a warm and soft square bag was stuffed into my arms.
Ying Shen was so scared that he threw his things away and knelt down.
"Don't be afraid, this is a hot pack. Ao Qing is worried that you will be cold at the door. If you hold it, you will be much warmer." Han Lang explained.
Ying Shen saw Feng Aoqing kneeling by the car window and handed one to Du Hui who was riding a horse.
Yuan Xu, the coachman, didn't need it. He used Han Lang's coachman equipment, which was very warm.
Han Lang was very angry. His good time as a couple was gone, but he was willing to drive the car.
"Can Du Hui and Yuan Xu be trusted?" Han Lang asked. When the two heard this, they sat straight and dared not move.
"I have the audacity to ask you something." Ying Shen asked.
"You ask."
"Don't you remember the three of us?"
Han Lang shook his head.
"Yes, it's been so long. We were only eight or nine years old at the time, and we were death guards trained since childhood in the camp. The three of us went to play on the ice of the Donghe River after our training, and we fell in. You threw us a rope and saved us."
"Ah! It's you! I didn't want to rescue him. At that time, Eunuch Qian was chasing me. I walked past him, but then I felt it wouldn't work, so I came back and threw the rope."
"Yes, yes, yes. We only realized it was you who saved us when we heard Eunuch Qian calling out 'Young Prince, Your Highness Prince Yu!' from behind."
"I was wondering why he didn't catch up! I guess he went to pull you guys!"
"Yes, yes, Eunuch Qian later fell ill and left the palace to live with us outside. We always treated him like our father and supported him! Until his death, he was still nagging us to find the young prince and bring him back. We couldn't find him, so we could only take good care of the queen."
Eunuch Qian was already over seventy years old at that time. He was the one who raised him. After he disappeared when he was ten years old, the eunuch fell ill and could not get up. He waited for five or six years but never saw the little prince and died with hatred in his heart.
Han Lang and Feng Aoqing understood that Ying Shen brought up this matter because he wanted to tell them that the three of them were absolutely trustworthy.
"Then tell Ao Qing about our mother's condition. She is the best doctor in Jiuzhou and has brought me back from the brink of death several times." Han Lang said.
"three times."
"I know three times! Do you want to write it on my forehead? Feng Aoqing saved my life three times!"
"Can."
"Feng Aoqing, that's enough!"
"Okay, you just rest aside, I'll ask." Feng Aoqing patted him with a smile.
Ying Shen was amazed by the woman in front of him. She was probably the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. She had a lady's bun, but she was extremely close to their prince. As far as he knew, their prince didn't even have a maid to warm his bed.
After Han Lang came back, the queen was extremely anxious and didn't even want a maid in the house.
Originally everyone was guessing about other things, but now it seems that their prince has someone he likes.
