Chapter 152 Cold Poison
The next day, Jiang Lan's condition still did not improve, so Qi Wuhan changed another imperial physician. The diagnosis of this imperial physician was the same as the previous one, that it was a cold attack, and the treatment plan he gave was also a medicinal bath.
Xie Yun suggested going outside the palace to find a doctor. He had told Jiang Lan a fortune last night, and according to the fortune, the person who could save her was outside the palace. Seeing that Qi Wuhan didn't believe him, Xie Yun swore that if he lied to him, he would make him a bachelor for the rest of his life and live alone.
When Ling Feng left, Xie Yun told him to walk east after leaving the palace, and he should be able to meet someone who could save Jiang Lan.
After leaving the palace, Ling Feng walked east as Xie Yun said. He walked almost the entire street without seeing anyone like a doctor. When he reached the intersection, he met another person unexpectedly.
"Doctor Ye?!" Ling Feng was shocked.
"Commander Ling?" Ye Rushui looked calm.
Without time to explain in detail, Ling Feng asked Ye Rushui to quickly follow him into the palace to rescue people.
"Who is dying?" Ye Rushui asked.
"Yes, madam." Ling Feng replied.
On the way, Ling Feng described Jiang Lan's symptoms in detail. She was found fainted in the greenhouse yesterday evening and is still unconscious and shivering all over. The imperial physician in the palace diagnosed that it was a cold attack and that she needed a medicinal bath and hot compress. She had already taken a medicinal bath last night, but it had no effect.
After entering the palace, Ling Feng took Ye Rushui to Ganyue Palace, and met Ye Xuanhe and Canglang walking in front of them. Judging from the direction they were going, they also seemed to be going to Ganyue Palace.
As if noticing someone behind him, the person in front stopped and turned around, waiting for the person behind to come over.
"It was the general. He brought the marquis back." Ling Feng reminded in a low voice and walked over with Ye Rushui.
"Who is this?" Ye Xuanhe looked at Ye Rushui, his gaze sweeping over the half golden mask covering his right eye. He then asked casually, "What's wrong with this eye?"
Ye Rushui replied, "I have many enemies, so it's inconvenient for me to show my true face." His tone was as calm as ever.
"Wouldn't it be more noticeable if you wore a mask?" Ye Xuanhe asked back, with an elusive light flashing in his amber pupils.
Ye Rushui did not answer.
Ling Feng bowed and said, "Your Highness is still waiting. Please forgive me, General."
"Go ahead, don't keep His Highness waiting."
Ling Feng and Ye Rushui left first. Ye Xuanhe looked at the direction they left, his eyes fell on the back of one of them, and said to Canglang behind him, "Do you think he looks like a human?"
"Sixth Young Master." Canglang replied concisely and without any hesitation.
Ye Xuanhe curled his lips and said, "Your eyes are still as sharp as ever." He smiled casually and walked away, "Let's go and see what His Highness wants to do next?" He slightly tilted his eyes, glanced at the corridor in the distance, and left with Canglang.
After the two left, a figure walked out from the shadow of the corridor, with his entire face still hidden in the darkness, with pale skin and bright red lips. He exuded a sinister aura, hiding silently in the darkness, as if he was always spying on the lifespan of mortals.
It was the chief eunuch of the Purple Moon Palace, Yue Xie.
The wind blew the shadow of the tree a few times, and in the blink of an eye, the person was gone.
…….
After Ling Feng brought Ye Rushui back to Ganyue Palace, Qi Wuhan had doubts about Ye Rushui's identity. Just as he was about to interrogate her, he was interrupted by Xie Yun.
"Brother Ye, that's great. Sister Lan can be saved now that you're here. You should go see Sister Lan." Xie Yun hurriedly took Ye Rushui to see Jiang Lan. When Qi Wuhan was about to go over, Ling Feng reported something to him.
"I ran into the general on my way back, and he seemed to be coming over as well."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone came from outside the door to report that the general had arrived.
"You've arrived just in time. Take him to the study first." Qi Wuhan walked over and saw Ye Rushui's hand on Jiang Lan's neck. He said indifferently, "If you can cure him, I'll reward you. If you can't, you don't have to keep this hand."
"Shh!" Xie Yun raised his hand and shushed him, whispering, "Don't disturb Brother Ye." Before he could finish his words, he was forced back by Qi Wuhan's cold and stern eyes. After standing by the bed for a while, he turned around and said to Ling Feng, "You stay here." Ling Feng bowed and accepted the order.
After Qi Wuhan left, Ye Rushui asked, "Do you really not remember anything?"
Ling Feng nodded.
"Brother Ye, let's talk about my brother-in-law later. Look at what's wrong with Sister Lan. Is she really suffering from a cold?" Xie Yun said anxiously.
Ye Rushui said, "Let me take your pulse first."
When he placed three fingers on Jiang Lan's pulse, Xie Yun and Ling Feng remained quiet and did not disturb him while he was taking the pulse.
On the other side, Qi Wuhan and Ye Xuanhe were talking alone in the study, while Canglang stayed outside.
"General, is there anything you want to talk to me about?"
"I heard that Your Highness had invited the imperial physician, and I was worried that Your Highness was ill, so I came to visit you."
"The general really cares about me. He knows everything that happens in my palace."
"Your Highness, thank you for your compliment. I am only concerned that someone might harm you. I have absolutely no intention of monitoring you."
Qi Wuhan put down his teacup, tapped his fingers casually on the desk twice, and changed the subject, asking, "Have they caught everyone?"
"We're still short of a few. If they run away, they run away. We don't need them." Ye Xuanhe said casually, looking unconcerned. He then casually asked, "By the way, is Miss Jiang okay?"
"Miss Jiang?" Qi Wuhan raised his voice slightly, as if asking but not really asking.
Ye Xuanhe laughed and said, "It's the young lady that Your Highness has been hiding. Your Highness has been hiding her for so long, don't you remember her last name?"
"Should I remember it?" Qi Wuhan asked back.
Ye Xuanhe smiled and said, "If she can give birth to children for Your Highness, His Majesty shouldn't object to Your Highness keeping her." At this point, he spread his hands, looking helpless, "Your Highness is not young anymore, it's time to consider having children. The Second Prince is two years younger than you, and his children are old enough to help with cooking. Your Highness should hurry up."
Qi Wuhan frowned slightly and said indifferently, "Is there anything else?" His words seemed to contain the subtext of "If you have nothing else, get out of here."
"I've been talking so much that I almost forgot the real business." Ye Xuanhe took out an invitation from his arms and placed it on the table beside him. "The Grand Tutor wants to invite Your Highness to attend his fiftieth birthday."
Qi Wuhan glanced at the invitation and said, "Then why doesn't he come and invite me in person?"
Ye Xuanhe laughed and said, "I guess they were afraid that Your Highness would be unhappy, so they made him into a fan as well."
"Didn't you tell me to be careful with the Master before? Why are you helping him deliver the invitation to me now? Aren't you afraid he might throw me a Hongmen Feast?"
Qi Wuhan looked at Ye Xuanhe, a dark light flashing in his eyes.
"Your Highness, rest assured. I will be there too. If this is really a Hongmen Feast, Your Highness will be able to eliminate it completely."
"You've really thought about me."
"If I could help Your Highness, I would die for you."
Qi Wuhan slightly curled his lips, revealing a hint of intriguing meaning, "You are really loyal to me."
Ye Xuanhe's tone also revealed a hint of intrigue, "I am loyal to Beimo."
…
When Qi Wuhan came back, Ye Rushui was still taking Jiang Lan's pulse. After about half a minute, he withdrew his hand.
Qi Wuhan and Xie Yun spoke almost at the same time, one asking how to treat it and the other asking what the situation was.
Ye Rushui stated his conclusion first: "According to my diagnosis, it's not a cold, but more like..." He paused, then said the last word in a normal tone, "poison."
Xie Yun was shocked. "Are you saying Sister Lan was poisoned?"
Ye Rushui replied: "This is more likely."
"What kind of poison?" Qi Wuhan asked.
Ye Rushui replied, "Cold poison. I'm not quite sure what kind of cold poison it is."
"How to treat it?" Qi Wuhan asked.
Ye Rushui replied, "First, use acupuncture to protect the heart meridian, and then prescribe the right medicine after determining the type of cold poison."
"I'll give you one day," Qi Wuhan said in a stern tone, "Is that enough?"
Ye Rushui replied, "Then please don't let anyone disturb me until tomorrow morning."
"Okay." Qi Wuhan agreed, "Leave it to the order, no one is allowed to enter without my order."
Ling Feng accepted the order and left.
"Brother Xie, please go out first." Ye Rushui said.
Xie Yun looked at Jiang Lan, then walked over and said to Qi Wuhan, "Take good care of her."
After Xie Yun left, Ye Rushui took out a bottle of medicine from the medicine box and handed it to Qi Wuhan, asking him to feed Jiang Lan a pill first, and then give her acupuncture to protect her heart meridian. Then he took out a small porcelain bottle from the medicine box, pricked Jiang Lan's middle finger lightly with a silver needle, squeezed out a few drops of blood into the small porcelain bottle, then asked Qi Wuhan to stretch out his hand, took out another small porcelain bottle, drew blood using the same method, and then took his pulse.
"There's nothing wrong with my body, but my brain needs some treatment."
