Inside the palace.

Xiao Rujin was lying on the bed, her face still pale.

He had heard the noise at the door a long time ago, and tried to stand up by grabbing the railing with his little hands, but it was no use.

"Sister, you are finally here..."

The weak voice entered Xiao Ruyu's ears, and it felt as painful as a knife cutting her.

[Stinky little brother, why are you getting thinner and thinner? ]

Xiao Ruyu's eyes turned red, she grabbed his little hand and found that his body temperature was not normal.

Queen Duan sighed softly and wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, "Jin'er has been like this since Yu'er left."

“Not only do I feel listless on weekdays, I even eat less.”

She pointed at Xiao Rujin's thin body, her voice choked with sobs.

"Look, your brother was born with you, isn't he much younger than you?"

Xiao Ruyu almost shed tears again and held his little hand tightly.

[Stinky little brother, is it because your sister is incompetent, or is it because you don’t have any…]

She couldn't bear to continue speaking, tears welled up in her eyes, she raised her head and didn't dare to look at Xiao Rujin again.

"Brother, I don't ask for anything else, as long as my sister can come back safely."

Xiao Rujin's thin voice came from below, and he started coughing after a few words.

Queen Duan turned her head away, unable to bear watching this scene, and covered her face with a handkerchief to hold back her tears.

At this moment, Xiao Ruyu suddenly noticed something strange about his cuffs.

She looked down and saw a bean-sized bug slowly crawling out from her wrist.

This bug looks extremely familiar.

Is that possible? !

Isn't this the poisonous insect that Miss Liu put on Doctor Yang that day? How could it appear on her body? !

When Xiao Ruyu was puzzled and had no time to react, the insect crawled along her wrist and onto Xiao Rujin's body.

"Yu'er, where did the bug come from!"

Queen Duan saw this scene with her sharp eyes and was about to step forward and crush the insect to death, but was stopped by her.

【Mother, wait! 】

"How can this be possible? What if this insect is poisonous..."

Queen Duan was frightened and reached out to catch the insect despite Xiao Ruyu's attempts to stop her.

In order to stop her, Xiao Ruyu forcibly grabbed her hand.

While the two were in a stalemate, the bug had already crawled into Xiao Rujin's palm.

It seems it’s too late to stop it!

"Yuer, why are you doing this..." Queen Duan asked in confusion.

[Mother, this is not an ordinary bug. ]

Xiao Ruyu stared at the insect closely, following its line of sight, and watched it drill into Xiao Rujin's body.

The next second, Xiao Rujin's face suddenly turned red.

"What's going on?"

Queen Duan also noticed this and hurried forward to take a closer look.

Seeing Xiao Rujin's complexion gradually improving, his originally pale lips also began to regain their color.

He moved his arm and found it was very different from before.

“Mother…”

Queen Duan quickly held his little hand and asked in panic.

"Is Jin'er feeling unwell?"

Xiao Rujin shook her head and actually stood up from the bed with the help of Queen Duan.

[Stinky brother! What are you doing?! ]

Xiao Ruyu rushed forward and looked at the scene in disbelief.

Could it be because of the poisonous insect?

[Hurry up and lie down. I'll take your pulse.]

"What's going on?"

Queen Duan was also very excited as she watched the scene before her.

After taking Xiao Rujin's pulse, Xiao Ruyu was surprised to find that there were two forces constantly colliding in his body.

On the one hand, the original poisonous insect made him weak, and on the other hand, the poisonous insect just now was inside preventing the other poisonous insect from moving.

The two poisonous insects restrained each other and temporarily suppressed the toxicity!

[Mother! My brother is getting better! It was because of the bug just now!]

Xiao Ruyu couldn't suppress his excitement and told everyone the source of the poisonous insects.

"So that's how it is... I didn't expect it to be this way..."

Queen Duan also found it hard to believe what she saw, and her hands as she held Xiao Rujin were shaking slightly.

She reacted and immediately called Aunt Cui.

"Quick! Go to the Imperial Study and summon Doctor Yang!"

Half an incense stick later, Doctor Yang hurried over and saw Xiao Rujin sitting on the bed. His complexion looked much better than before.

"Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen."

After he paid his respects, he looked at Xiao Rujin's change in surprise, and looked to the side for confirmation.

Xiao Ruyu hurriedly pulled him to check Xiao Rujin's pulse, and his fingertips turned slightly white due to the force.

[Master, please take a look at my stinky little brother, is he feeling better? ]

Taking Xiao Rujin's pulse, everyone's eyes fell on the two of them.

Doctor Yang's expression changed from confusion to ecstasy, "What's going on?! The little prince's pulse has stabilized, the original poison has been suppressed!"

After getting the exact answer, Xiao Ruyu felt numb all over and tears almost burst out.

[Master, do you still remember the poisonous insect that Miss Liu gave you? ]

Seeing her ask, Doctor Yang was stunned at first, nodded, and then immediately reacted.

"You mean, the poisonous insect is..."

Seeing Xiao Ruyu nodding frantically, he couldn't help but feel very fortunate.

"I didn't expect it to be a blessing in disguise. The poisonous insects restrained each other, and for a while the poison in the little prince was completely suppressed."

Queen Duan's body softened and she couldn't help sobbing into her handkerchief.

"I have been worried these days. I didn't expect that Yu'er would bring me such a big surprise as soon as she came back."

She couldn't help wiping her tears and crying with joy.

Xiao Ruyu quickly stopped crying and went forward to hug her.

【Mother, this is a good thing.】

"What are you all arguing about? I heard it from outside."

Imperial Physician Yang had just left in a hurry, and when Emperor Shangwen heard that it was about Xiao Rujin, he also hurried over.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw Empress Duan sobbing with her handkerchief in her hand. I felt so sorry for her and walked over to her with heartache.

"What happened to the Queen?"

Turning his gaze to Xiao Rujin standing beside him, Emperor Shangwen was also greatly surprised.

"Jin'er, are you alright?"

Doctor Yang quickly explained, "The little prince is now much better, and the poison in his body has been suppressed."

"Okay, this is a good thing. Why is the Queen still crying?"

Emperor Shangwen gently wiped away her tears and leaned on her in his arms.

"I was just too happy for a moment."

Empress Duan answered and her eyes fell on Doctor Yang.

"This is all thanks to Doctor Yang. If it weren't for him, Jin'er wouldn't have recovered so quickly."

"Your Majesty, please, for my sake, don't punish Imperial Doctor Yang this time."

Seeing her begging for mercy, Emperor Shangwen smiled silently and touched her wet cheek with one hand.

"Since the Queen has spoken, I have nothing to say."

He turned his head to look at Doctor Yang and said, "I only allow this once, there can be no next time!"

[Daddy is the best, and mommy is the best too.]

Xiao Ruyu brought Xiao Rujin over, and the family of four was having a great time.

"I thank the Emperor and the Empress."

When Doctor Yang saw this, a hint of sadness flashed in his eyes and he retreated quietly.
