Chapter 923 Injury (4)
I always feel that although I am sitting very close to Shen Miao, the distance between us seems to be a thousand miles away.
Pei Lang said, "Go back to the house. The wind is strong."
“No need,” Shen Miao looked outside, “You’re not fully recovered yet, don’t worry about me, go back and rest first.”
Pei Lang was silent for a moment, then said, "I'll accompany you."
Shen Miao was too lazy to persuade him. Her mind was not on Pei Lang at the moment, but was only concerned about Xie Jingxing's injuries in the room.
Gao Yang was busy all night.
Shen Miao also sat there for the entire night.
Speaking of which, on the night when they were waiting for news from Xie Jingxing at the hunting ground, Madam Ji dozed off, but Shen Miao didn't fall asleep. She hadn't closed her eyes for two days, yet she seemed quite energetic.
When the rooster crowed three times, Gao Yang opened the door and walked out. Seeing Shen Miao and Pei Lang sitting on the steps in front of the door, he couldn't help but be slightly surprised and said, "You... sat there all night?"
Shen Miao rubbed her numb knees while asking Gao Yang, "How is he?"
"He's stable for now. The Guiyuan Pills are quite effective. I'm going to research a way to detoxify him in the room. No one is allowed to disturb him." He looked at Shen Miao again: "I've entrusted him to you to take care of him these days."
Uncle Tang, who came upon hearing the news, couldn't help but ask, "What if you haven't come out in ten days..."
Gao Yang didn't say anything, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became heavy.
“You go.” In the silence, Shen Miao spoke, her voice completely calm, as if the person on the bed on the verge of life and death was not her husband.
Gao Yang looked at her seriously and said, "I hope to succeed, too. If not, I will never be happy in my life."
He turned and left.
Uncle Tang looked at Shen Miao, then at Pei Lang, and said, "Madam, Master Pei, you stayed up all night and haven't eaten anything yet. The master's condition has stabilized now. You should eat something first and rest for a while. Don't let the master's injuries heal while you get tired."
Shen Miao nodded and said, "Bring it inside. I'll rest here for a while so it's convenient for me to take care of it. Also, send someone to pass a message to Madam Ji saying that His Highness's condition has stabilized for the time being, but he hasn't woken up yet, so don't come over for the time being."
Uncle Tang nodded. Pei Lang looked at Shen Miao and saw that she had walked to the chair in front of the bed and sat down. His eyes dimmed and he turned around and left.
Guyu quickly brought a bowl of porridge over, and Shen Miao asked her to leave and close the door behind her. Only Shen Miao, the unconscious Xie Jingxing, and Tie Yi were left in the room. While eating, she asked Tie Yi, "What happened? Can you tell me now?"
Tieyi hesitated.
Shen Miao stopped what she was doing, stared at him and said sternly, "You followed him into the inner court that day. No one knows what happened better than you. Even if you only recognize him as your master, you can't hide it from me."
Tie Yi hurriedly said, "No, Madam, it's just that I'm not very clear about the master's plan this time. Because the master was discussing it with the emperor, not even the Mo Yu Army was mobilized. But something unexpected seemed to have happened midway. The emperor's life was hanging by a thread in the inner court. Someone ambushed him among the imperial guards. The master was seriously injured while trying to block the emperor's knife. The knife was poisoned. Someone wanted to kill the emperor..."
In an instant, Shen Miao felt as if beads had finally been connected into a string, and the conjecture in her mind had a vague answer. This hunt was actually a game between Emperor Yongle and the Lu family, perhaps a game played by the Lu family. Emperor Yongle wanted to use his own life to bring down the entire Lu family, and the Lu family wanted to use this opportunity to deal with Emperor Yongle, but they didn't know that Emperor Yongle had made up his mind to die.
