Chapter 267 An Extremely Serious Problem



Song Tangxue had undoubtedly made the right bet this time, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the answer, though she didn't show it.

"Then I'll trouble you to give the drought medicine directly to Physician Liu outside, while I stay here to treat your grandson, shall I?"

She offered a solution that the old man could not refuse, and now it seemed to be the best option.

"Yes, I'll arrange it right away. Don't worry, there won't be any problems with those medicines!"

Song Tangxue didn't say anything, but stood still. After all, she couldn't afford to lose her aura; that was why she won just now.

But after thinking about it, Song Tangxue felt that if she didn't show up, Physician Liu would probably be anxious and wouldn't be able to explain to the Emperor.

She then left with them, and Physician Liu had already received the news.

He looked at Song Tangxue with concern: "Miss, it might be inappropriate for you to stay here!"

Beside him were the old man's servants and a group of thugs. Doctor Liu couldn't be too explicit, so he could only speak in this way.

Song Tangxue, however, remained remarkably calm and spoke directly to Physician Liu.

"I'm staying here to treat people. You can leave without worry, but remember that if any of those patients have any problems, they must come to me as soon as possible."

She couldn't bear to part with the tens of thousands of ordinary people, and she always kept them in her thoughts.

Song Tangxue was speaking with utmost seriousness, and behind her stood two men in black, clearly assassins.

If problems arise at this point, they will likely kill without hesitation.

Realizing this, Physician Liu had no choice but to bow respectfully and leave.

Song Tangxue was quickly taken away and brought to the backyard.

This courtyard is even more secluded than the previous one; it seems the sick person doesn't want to see the outside world.

Song Tangxue had already made up her mind. While she was waiting, the old man reappeared, but his face now showed more sorrow.

"I only have this one grandson. If you can save him so that he can live like a normal person, I will definitely give you a big gift!"

"I suppose you don't know me, sir, but there's no need to say more. I will do my best to save you."

Song Tangxue answered directly, and she spoke with great seriousness.

She never expects anything in return for saving people; she just wants to be able to live with herself.

Before the old man could speak, a noise came from the other side of the door.

Several servants cleared the way first, and then a young man was helped in.

He was being supported by attendants on both sides of his hands, indicating that even walking was extremely difficult for him.

The old man's eyes were instantly drawn to the scene, and he quickly followed. One of the servants, as if already used to it, hurriedly made way for him.

He personally helped the young man to his seat and then sat down.

Song Tangxue has been observing carefully from the beginning until now, and has now discovered the problem.

She had vaguely heard the coach's voice just now, and guessed that this person was the author teaching his son, but she was already so tired after walking only a few steps.

"Please excuse my poor health, young lady. I'm simply too exhausted..."

The young man spoke very weakly, but his behavior differed from that of his grandfather.

The young man appeared polite, while Song Tangxue found the old man's previous scheming extremely distasteful.

However, now was not the time to talk about these things. Song Tangxue walked straight up to him and observed his appearance.

"Your face is pale, your eyes are lifeless, and even the tip of your nose feels slightly cold. How long has this been going on?"

She didn't even need to take his pulse to know that this young man was terminally ill!

These words made the old man even more anxious: "My grandson is in serious trouble. To be honest, a doctor has already said that it is now beyond saving!"

"Don't speak yet, answer my question."

Song Tangxue did not look at the old man, but instead looked solemnly at the young man.

The young man was extremely weak; even when he spoke, he appeared listless and weak.

But he'll definitely have to go through a lot this time. He needs to explain his situation clearly first, since only he knows the full story.

"It's been like this for three to five years now. No matter what medicine I take, it's been useless. I always feel that it's getting worse over time."

This person's appearance clearly indicates he's from out of town, yet he speaks quite fluently, suggesting he's studied a lot in private.

They probably even know Song Tangxue, otherwise, as usual, if they saw a young woman, they would probably be extremely disgusted and disbelieving.

Song Tangxue had already made up her mind. She didn't say anything more, but looked at his palm before taking his pulse.

The emperor was already aware of the situation outside, but he was furious.

"The Yan Kingdom has gone too far! They have repeatedly offended our court over the years, and now they dare to openly seize medicine!"

After he finished speaking, he looked at the Third Prince beside him.

"Why don't you handle this matter? After all, they are your defeated opponents, and your intervention will be more effective!"

"It seems that this matter is not so simple. These people were already sick because they were poisoned, but now it seems that it was done by the Yan State."

The Third Prince directly reminded the Emperor that he had connected the two matters.

When you put the pieces together, you'll find that there's something fishy going on.

The emperor hadn't thought of these things before, but his expression became serious after hearing them.

If that's the case, they can't act rashly; there might be something fishy going on.

"Perhaps they have no worries about the future and have already made preparations, doing this to provoke us?"

The Emperor said with some lingering fear, because if that were the case, the matter would likely be in serious trouble.

The Third Prince did not refute this at all; instead, he nodded in agreement.

"Yes, that's why we have to be careful. Now that we have the antidote, let's just accept it and then take it one step at a time!"

As he spoke, he thought of Song Tangxue again.

"As for that female doctor, she is a capable one, and I believe she will handle the situation with ease."

The emperor was extremely agitated; this matter was likely involving many complex threads.

He didn't speak, but the courtiers beside him knelt on the ground, echoing the Third Prince's words.

"Your Highness is quite right. I hope Your Majesty will reconsider!"

The emperor took a deep breath and looked at the pressure exerted on him by everyone. Of course, he couldn't refute it, after all, he had to be responsible for everyone.

Song Tangxue was unaware of these things, but her pulse was extremely weak, and her lungs and internal organs already had serious problems.

Just as she was about to ask, the young man began to cough violently.

A servant nearby quickly offered a medicine.

It was only after eating that the symptoms subsided, but the person became even weaker.

"Young lady, what is the situation now? I hope you can tell me the truth!"

Seeing that Song Tangxue remained silent, the old man became extremely anxious and quickly spoke again.
