Chapter 814 Husband and Wife Each Have Their Own Thoughts
Gongsun Ling received an urgent summons from the Emperor and rushed back to the palace. He noticed the red spider lily on Empress Jiang's forehead but couldn't understand why.
If we're talking about poisoning, she doesn't seem to be poisoned. The key question is, what kind of poison could make this flower so lifelike and beautiful? Could it be that poisoning by Guining Pills causes such patterns to appear? This has never happened before, so it has nothing to do with Guining Pills.
Jiang Fenghua habitually tucked in her stomach and straightened her chest, sitting upright in the main seat and letting Gongsun Ling look her over. Fortunately, she remembered everything that happened after she lost her memory.
Xie Shang asked, "Has Mr. Gongsun noticed the problem?"
Gongsun Ling withdrew his hand. "Judging from the pulse, there's nothing wrong with his body, just a bit of qi deficiency. A little nourishment will do the trick. As for the flower between his eyebrows, I need to investigate that further."
Jiang Fenghua said, "Is this a side effect of Guining Pill? This is actually a toxic spot. The toxins in my body have grown out. I often feel dizzy, and my brain hurts for no reason. Sometimes I even feel that my memory is confused."
Hongxiu then remembered that when the Empress woke up that morning, she had asked Granny Wang where she had gone.
Hongxiu said worriedly, "It seems that Your Highness's memory is really problematic. Even though Granny Wang is dead, Your Highness doesn't remember the incident that happened to Granny Wang."
Lin Yu's eyes were filled with anxiety, "The poison from the Gui Ning Pill has spread to the space between my eyebrows, what should we do? Let's try the antidote and see if it can be eliminated!"
Jiang Fenghua looked puzzled and deliberately asked, "What antidote? Is there an antidote for the amnesia medicine I took?"
For a moment, Lin Yu was speechless.
Jiang Fenghua then asked Xie Shang, "Is there really an antidote?"
Xie Shang reacted quickly: "Mr. Gongsun did bring the antidote, but since Ruan Ruan's body has problems, the antidote may not be effective. I dare not give it to you easily. I have been waiting for another doctor who developed the Gui Ning Pill. Only she knows many things."
Lin Yu stared at Xie Shang, her eyes questioning. The Empress's health was already deteriorating; the Emperor couldn't be so selfish as to prevent her from regaining her memories of her past life.
Xie Shang ignored Lin Yu's thoughts and said directly to Gongsun Ling, "No matter what method you use, you must find a way to save the Empress."
Gongsun Ling frowned, his heart filled with doubts. He concealed his doubts and pretended to be relaxed, saying, "Judging from the current situation, Your Highness's body does not have any serious problems. Whether this is a poison or not depends on whether it grows larger in the future. If it continues to grow, it may be very dangerous. However, Your Highness does not need to worry too much. Judging from the current situation, it does not seem to be growing any further."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Fenghua was speechless, her face contorted in a deep, dark rage; she was indeed incredibly ugly.
She could tell what Lin Yu was thinking just by looking at her expression.
Jiang Fenghua sighed. Lin Yu was really overthinking things. Between her two lifetimes, she should be considered an old woman now. Whether she was happy or not always depended on herself, not on a man.
Lin Yu didn't want her to live in hatred. She wanted her to forget the pain and start a new life. In fact, she didn't care at all whether she truly liked Xie Shang or pretended to like him. What did it matter if she liked him or not? She still had to continue living in the palace.
Xie Shang himself wanted to get genuine feelings from her. After learning about their past life, Xie Shang felt guilty and couldn't get over it. He thought that as long as she forgot, it would be as if nothing had happened, and he could feel at ease.
Jiang Fenghua said, "Since Mr. Gongsun has brought the antidote, I would like to try to see if I can recover my memory. Perhaps the mark will disappear after taking the antidote."
She grabbed Xie Shang's hand and pleaded, "Your Majesty, please let me try it!" Xie Shang hadn't given her the antidote for so long, and he wouldn't this time either.
Gongsun Ling also said, "I also suggest that Your Majesty try the antidote. Since Lanlan was able to develop the Guining Pill, I believe the antidote will be fine too." He had great faith in his sister's medical skills.
Gongsun Ling was also puzzled as to why the Emperor was unwilling to provide the antidote. When Aoxue came to ask for the Guining Pill, he had inquired about it, but Aoxue did not specify who it was for.
Gongsun Ling looked at Jiang Fenghua. In fact, the pulse he felt when he took her pulse that day was completely different from the pulse he felt now. He was afraid that he had made a mistake, so he checked it again and again, but the result was still the same.
The Empress's health is fine, so what's the reason for the flower that suddenly appeared between her eyebrows?
Jiang Fenghua also glanced at Gongsun Ling, noticing a hint of scrutiny in his eyes. She thought to herself: Could it be that Gongsun Ling has noticed something? She should just stick to the fact that she doesn't remember anything, and he won't be able to do anything about it!
She didn't know why the mark that suddenly appeared between her eyebrows had appeared.
The antidote in the medicine bottle is fake, and she has to find a way to destroy it in front of Xie Shang. Since he so wants her not to regain her memories, then she might as well not regain them.
"Unintentional," Xie Shang said in a deep voice.
Wu Xin respectfully replied, "This servant is here."
"Go to the Imperial Study and get the antidote."
Wu Xin asked, "Where is His Majesty placed?"
Xie Shang glanced at Wuxin. "There's a drawer on the side of my desk. You can see it when you open it."
Wu Xin was stunned. The antidote had clearly been moved by His Majesty. Did His Majesty still not want the Empress to regain her memory?
He said, "Yes."
Just as he was about to leave, Xie Shang caught up with him again, saying, "I'll go get it."
Jiang Fenghua said, "Let me go with you! It will save Your Majesty from having to run back and forth. I really want to regain my memories."
Xie Shang's lips tightened. He didn't know how to refuse, so he agreed to let Jiang Fenghua take him to the Imperial Study.
The couple each had their own thoughts.
Just as they arrived at the entrance of the Imperial Study, Lin Feng returned with his men. "This humble servant greets Your Majesty and Your Highness."
Xie Shang asked, "How did things go? What about Xiao Liu?"
“He’s dead.” Lin Feng continued, “I never expected Xiao Liu to become a traitor. He tried to take the Empress Dowager away but was discovered by me. He also had a group of assassins helping him. He must have defected to another gang.”
Xie Shang said, "Tell me the specifics..."
Lin Feng then began to report, "This humble servant escorted Her Majesty the Empress Dowager and the Grand Empress Dowager all the way to the Imperial Mausoleum..."
Seeing that they were chatting so enthusiastically, as if they had forgotten about getting the antidote, Jiang Fenghua wondered if Xie Shang would become suspicious if she took the antidote but did not regain her memory.
It's best not to eat it, so he doesn't become suspicious.
She knew Xie Shang was also stalling for time, and she was puzzled. This was unlike Xie Shang's character. From what she knew of him, he was a man who would never focus solely on personal feelings. Half of his gentleness and affection might be an act.
She couldn't quite understand Xie Shang in this life, because during the time she lost her memory, he was incredibly considerate.
She could never let her guard down around him and never completely trusted him.
He seemed determined to make her trust him completely.
What Jiang Fenghua didn't know was that Xie Shang had another reason for not letting her regain her memories: Master Wu Zi had deduced that Jiang Fenghua was the key figure who would change the fate of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The Great Zhou Dynasty was destined to perish, and the prince born to Jiang Fenghua was the imperial star predicted by Master Wu. In the emperor's heart, no matter how much he liked her, Jiang Fenghua, who had no ambition, was more suitable to be his empress.
At this moment, Jiang Fenghua suddenly didn't want to test Xie Shang anymore.
She clutched her forehead, looking as if she was in great pain, and then fainted.
