Imperial Physician Fang was also a little confused, truly believing that Prince Ming was about to die. He quickly ran to the bedside, looked at the tightly closed bed curtains and scolded, "How can the patient recover if the curtains are so airtight?"
Without waiting for Lan Shuang's answer, he ripped open the bed curtain and made eye contact with Ming Wang, who was shirtless and looked like a hedgehog.
Imperial Physician Fang: “…”
He was silent for a moment, then stammered, "You've been exercising a lot in recent years, haven't you? You still look pretty strong..."
Ming Wang: "...Haha, thank you for the compliment."
Before he finished speaking, Imperial Physician Fang jumped out like a frightened rabbit, and then carefully tucked the bed curtains in.
Prince Ming: "..."
Lan Shuang walked over slowly and saw Imperial Physician Fang standing uncomfortably beside the bed. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "It can be seen that Imperial Physician Fang really cares about the prince. He is so anxious. It's my fault for not communicating with Imperial Physician Fang in advance."
Upon hearing this, Imperial Physician Fang waved his hands repeatedly: "How can this be blamed on the princess? It's my fault for not understanding clearly. The prince is..."
Lan Shuang walked to the bedside and said to him in a low voice, "The prince drank the wine given by the emperor at the banquet, and vomited after returning."
They were all smart people, so there was no need to explain everything. With just these two sentences, Imperial Physician Fang immediately understood the whole story.
Thinking of the silver needles on Ming Wang's body, he smiled and said, "Is there a master in the palace?"
Lan Shuang smiled and nodded, but didn't say anything more: "I invited you here this time because I want you to help us put on a show. Call Li Jian in later, and you can say this..."
The two of them whispered to each other for a while, and Prince Ming listened with great interest. It must be said that his little princess had a lot of tricks up her sleeve.
Smart and cute.
He lay in bed, his body stretched out. The next moment, the bed curtains were suddenly opened again. Lan Shuang touched his face, and then tears fell, landing on his collarbone. "My Lord, why are you so miserable?"
It's so sad, I don't know if I thought he was gone.
Ming Wang almost couldn't help but lose his concentration. He closed his eyes and listened carefully to the movements in the room. When he heard the door open, he pretended to be on his last legs.
Lan Shuang cried even louder, and tearfully asked Imperial Physician Fang, "Sir, is there any hope for the prince?"
Imperial Physician Fang sighed, the last word faintly trailing off. Needless to say, one could tell that he wasn't doing well.
Li Jian almost couldn't maintain the expression on his face. Is this what the King Ming can't do?
Imperial Physician Fang turned to look at him and said, "Eunuch Li, please wait a moment. I will give the prince acupuncture to remove the poison. It will take another half an hour."
Li Jian heard this and said hurriedly: "Don't worry, don't worry. If I don't see the prince out of danger, I won't be able to explain to the emperor when I return. The emperor is so worried!"
Of course, these words were spoken to Lan Shuang. Lan Shuang turned her back to him and rolled her eyes.
She straightened up with sobs, and Imperial Physician Fang comforted her again, "The prince was not feeling well to begin with. Today, it's because a medicine in the wine conflicted with the medicine I prescribed earlier. Fortunately, the prince vomited it out, and there was no damage to the foundation. Although he has lost some vitality, it's not that serious yet. Princess, there is no need to worry for the time being."
Lan Shuang let out a long breath, "In this way, I can feel a little relieved."
As she spoke, she choked up again and covered her face with a handkerchief.
Ming Wang couldn't help but feel distressed when he heard this. Even though he knew she was pretending, he still felt uncomfortable. He wished she had shed these tears at another time.
Li Jian hurriedly tried to comfort Lan Shuang again, saying a lot of auspicious words, which made his mouth dry. Only then did Lan Shuang reluctantly wipe away her tears.
Half an hour later, Imperial Physician Fang pulled out the needle from Ming Wang's body. Although he was not the one who performed the acupuncture, he knew all the acupoints well, so pulling out the needle was not a problem.
After removing the needles, he put them aside and said to Lan Shuang, "Please keep these needles in the mansion first. If needed, the princess can find someone to give the prince acupuncture."
"Thank you, Imperial Physician."
"Your Highness must not eat greasy food these days. His diet must be light and nourishing. He must take his medicine on time and abstain from alcohol. He must not make any more mistakes. His Highness's body cannot withstand such torment."
Lan Shuang turned her head to look at the person on the bed and whispered, "I've noted it all down."
Imperial Physician Fang nodded, said nothing more, and left with Li Jian.
After returning, Li Jian and Imperial Physician Fang recounted all the words truthfully.
The emperor pondered for a long time before asking, "Doctor Fang, you said there's an ingredient in the medicine that conflicts with alcohol?"
Doctor Fang shuddered and lowered his head even lower. "Yes, it's because the medicinal properties counteract each other."
The emperor nodded in satisfaction: "I understand, you may leave."
Imperial Physician Fang breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, I will take my leave."
Watching Imperial Physician Fang leave, Li Jian smiled and said, "This Imperial Physician Fang is truly a smart man."
The emperor remained silent. "Tomorrow, take another batch of medicinal herbs from the warehouse and send them to Prince Ming's Palace."
"yes."
"Also," the emperor said solemnly, "I will summon Prince Rong to the palace tomorrow. I want to ask him what his real intentions are."
…
Prince Rong was still in the land of tenderness. After a moment of lovemaking, he contentedly embraced the person in his arms and coaxed her in a low voice, "Don't worry. There's no princess in the palace now. When Li's child is born, it will be given to you to raise."
It was a compliment for her giving him the idea.
Prince Rong stroked Lan Yuning's back from time to time.
Lan Yuning leaned in his arms, a look of contentment on her face. "I'll listen to you, Your Highness. I'm just a little envious. I've loved children since I was little. I can't take my eyes off cute little girls like you. I wish I could give birth to one for Your Highness."
Prince Rong lowered one hand to her abdomen and said with a smile, "Maybe you're pregnant already?"
Lan Yuning blushed: "Your Highness..."
Prince Rong was distracted and was about to do something else when the servant outside the door kept knocking: "My Lord, something bad has happened in Prince Ming's Mansion!"
"oh?"
Prince Rong turned over and sat up, a little surprised. Lan Yuning also sat up. After they were dressed, they let the servant in.
The servant smelled the smell in the room, didn't dare to look up, and recounted everything that had just happened in a very fast speed while looking at his toes.
Prince Rong sat back in his chair, frowning and asking, "How could he be so tolerant?"
As he spoke, he looked at Lan Yuning. Lan Yuning's heart skipped a beat and she hurriedly said, "Your Highness, if he was pretending, he had come through all these years, how could he easily capsize at this moment?"
Prince Rong waved his hand to let the servant leave and asked calmly, "What evidence do you have?"
"concubine……"
Lan Yuning was stuck. In her previous life, she and Ming Wang were from two completely different worlds and she had never paid attention to him. When Ming Wang succeeded in usurping power, she discovered that he was the one hiding the most. However, she really didn't know what specific power Ming Wang had.
Seeing that she remained silent for a long time, Prince Rong's face darkened: "You don't know?"
Lan Yuning panicked and blurted out, "Lan Shuang must know! She's Prince Ming's consort, and Prince Ming trusts her immensely!"
