Chapter 493 The Old Lady is Found
Si Linglong stood up almost suddenly.
My first reaction was that it was that 朏朏’s doing.
But...朏朏 is kind-hearted by nature, unlike other monsters who like to engage in conspiracy and fighting. Logically, he should not attack the old lady, let alone hide her.
It should have known the old lady's location from the beginning, and only now led people to find her, right?
Si Linglong thought about this and couldn't help but want to go over and take a look.
When the wife of Marquis Wu'an heard the maid say that the person had been found, she was extremely surprised, but because Helian Yue was in trouble, it was not easy for her to leave him behind to check, so she could only worry about it.
Helian Yue didn't care what the wife of Marquis Wu'an was feeling. It was just that Si Linglong wanted to go and see her. He was really worried about the old lady's condition, so he simply walked out of the flower hall and ordered,
"Madam Wu'an, lead the way. I want to see the old lady in person."
With these words, the group went to the backyard in a natural and mighty manner.
When we arrived at the courtyard where the old lady was, there was already a circle of maids surrounding the house.
Seeing the Holy Chariot coming, they hurriedly made way for him and knelt down in unison towards Helian Yue.
Helian Yue led his people into the inner room and saw two maids in front of the bed, anxiously checking the old lady's body, and a doctor was taking her pulse beside her.
When he saw Helian Yue, he was about to bow, but Helian Yue waved his hand to signal Doctor Yu to skip the bow and continue taking the patient's pulse.
The old lady seemed to have just been found, and was still in a coma. Her silvery white hair was neatly combed behind her head. Her usually kind face now had her eyes closed, with a calm and peaceful expression.
Si Linglong was unable to go forward, so she looked at the bed through the people around her and could only vaguely see a silver frost at the head of the bed.
After an unknown amount of time, Doctor Yu finally finished taking the patient's pulse and said to Helian Yue and the people from the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion who had heard the news,
"The old lady's pulse is calm and there is nothing wrong with her for the time being. I think she was just frightened and fell asleep."
"Do you know when he will wake up?" Helian Yue asked.
Doctor Yu thought about it and gave a conservative time, "About two hours."
In fact, it didn't take two hours at all, just a quarter of an hour for the old lady to wake up.
At that time, Helian Yue was still in the front hall listening to the conversation between Marquis Wu'an and the maid who found the old lady. When he heard that the old lady had woken up, he led his people back inside.
The old lady was now supported by her maid and sitting on the head of the bed. When she saw Helian Yue, she looked surprised and made a gesture to get out of bed to greet him.
Helian Yue immediately stepped forward and signaled to the old lady, "The old lady is not well yet, there is no need to perform the ceremony."
The old lady did not force him to do so. She just smiled at Helian Yue in front of her, with a bit of kindness on her face, and said, "I am sick, and Emperor Lao came to visit me in person. It is my fault."
"No need to say more, old lady. I just hope you take care of yourself."
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty, but... life is a matter of destiny. There is no need to insist on it." When the old lady said this, there was a sense of open-mindedness and calmness in her tone. Her voice was gentle, and her attitude towards Helian Yue was respectful but also friendly towards the youngsters.
Just listening to it gives people a warm feeling.
She is a completely different type of old lady from the Empress Dowager.
This was Si Linglong's first impression of the old lady.
Perhaps Si Linglong's gaze was too obvious, because the old lady suddenly turned her gaze towards her, and a kind smile appeared on her face with ravines, "This lady is Lang Zhaoyi, right? I am not in a position to perform the ceremony, I hope you will not blame me."
Si Linglong didn't expect that the old lady actually recognized her. She took a few steps forward. She was always well behaved in front of her elders, "Old lady, I am sorry to trouble you, you..."
There was a slight pause in her voice, and Si Linglong looked at the old lady in front of her and was slightly stunned.
I don’t know if it was her illusion.
When she approached just now, she seemed to smell a bit of alcohol???
