Chapter 592 Dedication
Xiao Shijie knew that he could not get an answer from the maid, but he still roared unwillingly.
"This prince asks you, where are my people?"
The maid looked terrified, "Prince, please forgive me. I know nothing."
Xiao Shijie tried to hold on to his body and try to get up, but he found that he felt even weaker. This helplessness that was beyond his control made him furious.
"Go and get my people!" He had never expected that Xiao Jin would actually send people to stop him!
He couldn't move at all now, and he didn't know where his people were taken!
Xiao Shijie's plan was completely disrupted. If he went to Beijing in this situation, wouldn't the emperor be able to take his life at any time?
Outside the door, Zhu Lin listened to Xiao Shijie's roar with a look of sarcasm on his face.
He said to the maid who came out, "Take good care of the prince and make sure he can arrive in the capital safely."
The maid changed her panic expression and said, "Yes, I understand."
…
Capital city.
Early in the morning, Su Ying left the palace and went to the Women's Academy.
She would go to the academy every few days to check on the situation there. There was no fixed time, and she didn't want the people in the academy to be prepared to cheat her.
As soon as Su Ying left the palace, the imperial physician came to Zhang Shuming and told him about Duke Jingguo's condition.
After hearing this, Zhang Shuming pondered for a moment and then walked into the imperial study.
"emperor."
Xiao Jin raised his eyelids and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Your Majesty, Imperial Doctor Ruan just came to tell me that Duke Jingguo is suddenly seriously ill and may not survive."
Xiao Jin's expression suddenly paused, "Duke Jingguo is suddenly seriously ill?"
"Yes, Doctor Ruan said that when Duke Jingguo caught a cold a few days ago, he asked him to come over for a checkup. He prescribed medicine at the time, thinking that he would be well in a few days. He took the initiative to go for a follow-up checkup today, but he found that Duke Jingguo was dying."
Xiao Jin stood up from his chair.
"Prepare the car. I want to go take a look."
"yes."
"Send someone to tell the queen to come to the Duke of Jingguo's mansion as soon as possible."
"I understand."
…
Chu Min and others received a message from the palace and waited outside the gate early.
Watching the palace carriage approaching from afar, he took the lead to greet it.
"Your Majesty, welcome."
Xiao Jin got off the carriage and glanced at everyone, "Get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"It's freezing outside, Your Majesty, please come in." Chu Min bowed and invited Xiao Jin in.
"I heard that Duke Jingguo suddenly became seriously ill. What happened?"
Chu Min showed a look of grief on his face. "Your Majesty, my father had recovered a lot before, but he was busy with official business a few days ago and accidentally caught a cold. I immediately called a doctor, and the doctor said that my father was infected with cold air. He had some old illnesses before, and the cold triggered them, so his condition suddenly became serious."
As he was speaking, Xiao Jin had already arrived at Duke Jingguo's courtyard.
The maids guarding outside the door came forward, bowed, and then stepped aside.
Chu Min pushed open the door, and a warm air mixed with the smell of medicine hit him in the face.
Xiao Jin walked to the bedside and looked at Duke Jingguo lying quietly on the bed with his eyebrows slightly drooping. The last time he saw Duke Jingguo, his cheeks were plump, but now the cheeks of Duke Jingguo lying on the bed were sunken, like a dying man.
"Imperial Physician, please check on Duke Jingguo immediately."
Upon hearing this, the imperial physician stepped forward to take Duke Jingguo's pulse.
Looking at the frowning imperial physician, Xiao Jin's expression became even darker.
After a while, the imperial physician let go and was silent for a moment before coming to Xiao Jin and saying, "Your Majesty, the cold evil has entered the body of Duke Jingguo, stimulating his internal organs. The situation is not optimistic. I can only use silver needles to force the cold out first, and then make plans for the next step."
"kindness."
The imperial physician took out some silver and dropped it on Duke Jingguo one by one.
Chu Min stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, please go to the partition to rest."
It was unknown how long the imperial physician would take to perform the acupuncture. Xiao Jin nodded slightly and followed Chu Min to the private room.
The maid came into the room carrying hot tea and snacks.
"Your Majesty, please wait a moment. I will go over and take a look first."
Xiao Jin nodded and reached out to pick up the teacup on the table. However, he let go of the cup as soon as he touched it. The cup tilted and the scalding hot tea spilled onto his robe. The cup then fell to the ground and shattered.
"Your Majesty, be careful." Zhang Shuming rushed forward in shock, but Xiao Jin had already stood up and waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.
The maid who served the tea turned pale with fear, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. Your Majesty, please forgive me."
Chu Min's face changed slightly, and he immediately asked someone to take the maid away, "I offended the emperor, please forgive me. Your Majesty's robe is wet, so please change into a clean one first."
If you don't change your clothes in the middle of winter and get wet, the cold wind will freeze you to your bones. Zhang Shuming also said, "Your Majesty, go change your clothes first."
There was no extra expression on Xiao Jin's face. "Yeah."
Chu Min took him to the guest room, and Zhang Shuming sent someone to bring up clean clothes for Xiao Jin to change into.
Zhang Shuming felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach just after changing his clothes. He immediately asked someone to serve Xiao Jin and then left.
In order to make the room warmer, the maid brought in two basins of charcoal.
Soon, the temperature in the room became even higher.
The young eunuch took the robe that Xiao Jin had changed out of and left, leaving Xiao Jin alone in the room.
He leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to rest, but he felt a heat rising in his body.
He frowned and stood up. Just as he was about to call someone, the door was pushed open and a pretty figure walked in.
The heat in the room made Chu Yun's face blush, making her skin look even whiter.
After she entered the room, she closed the door with her backhand. Perhaps she was too nervous, her fingertips were shaking.
"Your humble daughter pays respect to His Majesty." She looked at Xiao Jin shyly, revealing her slender lower body, revealing her smooth white neck.
Xiao Jin's eyes darkened, and he felt the heat in his body getting worse and worse. "Get out."
Chu Yun's body trembled, but she didn't know what she was thinking about. Her eyes gradually became firm. She slowly straightened up and looked at Xiao Jin. When she met Xiao Jin's eyes that were filled with ice, she couldn't help but shudder.
Averting her eyes, Chu Yun slowly walked up to Xiao Jin and said, "I have admired Your Majesty for a long time. My greatest wish in this life is to become your woman. I hope Your Majesty will fulfill my wish."
As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her head and untied the belt around her waist...
At this time, Su Ying's carriage had arrived outside the gate of Duke Jingguo's Mansion.
When Xiao Jin left the palace, Zhang Shuming sent someone to rush to the academy to pass on the message to Su Ying.
Fortunately, the other party was fast enough and stopped Su Ying's carriage halfway.
When Su Ying learned that Duke Jingguo was suddenly seriously ill, she did not delay and directly turned the carriage around and headed towards Duke Jingguo's mansion.
"Has the Emperor arrived yet?"
"Your Majesty, the Emperor is already in the Duke's courtyard."
Su Ying nodded slightly and followed the servant into the courtyard of Duke Jingguo.
As soon as she walked in, she heard a loud "bang" and a figure flew out from the side room and fell heavily on the snow.
