Chapter 48: The Regent King's Medicine
No wonder she didn't get pregnant after being with Ling Fengxun for several years in her previous life. It wasn't until Ling Fengxun found a miracle doctor to take care of her body that she had a child. It turned out
that it wasn't because he was incapable, but because she was harmed by someone and didn't know it.
Today, the truth is revealed, and An Yunxi's mood is a bit complicated.
"The medicine on the wedding day and this medicine should have been given by the same person. An Ruxue should not have such a scheme. The person who really dominated the situation should be Aunt Liu."
Ling Fengxun narrowed his eyes, his eyes dangerous.
"It's getting late, Axi, we should go visit General An."
An Yunxi was thinking this.
She simply packed her clothes, smoothed her hair, and then brought Ling Fengxun to the yard where General An was recuperating.
At this time, the house was brightly lit.
When several maids saw An Yunxi coming, they immediately saluted her.
"Hello, young lady."
They spoke loudly, obviously informing the people in the house. She just nodded slightly and walked straight in with Ling Fengxun.
Just as they reached the door, Aunt Liu came out.
She had a gentle and charming face, and she looked very charming. Even though she was old, she was full of seductive charm, and every move she made was extremely charming. She was worthy
of being someone who came out of a brothel.
"I didn't expect the young lady to come at this hour. I was just taking care of the general. I'm sorry for not welcoming you."
An Yunxi listened to the soft voice of Aunt Liu, which gave people a very comfortable feeling. It was obviously trained intentionally.
She curled her lips and looked at this woman who was once regarded as a benefactor by herself and her mother. She actually deceived her and her daughter for so many years.
She was completely played in the palm of her hand.
Even the heartless General An was devoted to her and was even willing to protect her daughter. She
is really resourceful.
"Aunt, you are polite. We are all family. What's there to welcome? I heard that my father was injured, so I went in to see him."
Aunt Liu paused.
She obviously knew why General An was injured.
She looked at An Yunxi's calm face, as if the matter had nothing to do with her. She was unable to react for a moment and revealed a little bit of emotion.
What's wrong with this girl? When did she feel that she couldn't see what she was thinking?
"Miss, please come in."
Aunt Liu thought to herself, but she also consciously made way.
An Yunxi and Ling Fengxun walked into the room together. The room was full of the smell of medicine for treating external injuries. General An was lying on the bed with a pale face, and he made some painful sounds from time to time.
After being beaten, there was no need to think about sleeping well in the first few days.
And it was necessary to prevent the wound from festering and causing fever.
An Yunxi stood by the bed with a smile on her lips.
"Father, your daughter is here to visit you."
Hearing An Yunxi's voice, General An slowly opened his eyes and looked over.
His eyes were full of bloodshot, and the moment he saw An Yunxi's face, his anger instantly erupted.
"What are you doing here? You girl, you wish I were dead, get out of here!"
An Yunxi was scolded, but she was not angry.
Because this made her feel more comfortable than watching General An pretending to care about her.
"Father, how can you say that? You are injured, and your daughter coming to visit and care about you is not filial piety? Otherwise, if outsiders knew that my own father was so seriously injured, but I didn't even come to see him, people would gossip about me."
General An coughed in anger.
The coughing sound involved the wound, causing him deep pain and tight muscles.
"Go away, I don't want to see you."
General An was seriously injured and had no intention of fighting with An Yunxi at this time.
However, An Yunxi said to Aunt Liu, "Aunt, you have taken care of father all day and must be tired. Why don't you let me do it?"
Upon hearing this, Aunt Liu hurriedly said, "I'm not tired yet, and how can I let the eldest lady do this kind of work?"
"My daughter wants to be filial to my father, and I also want a good reputation. Aunt, do you think I'm wrong to do this?"
Aunt Liu's mouth tightened a little, and she smiled and said, "The general and I appreciate the eldest lady's kindness. It's good that the intention is there. There are so many servants in this mansion, so I don't need to trouble you."
"How can I do that? Seeing my father injured, I can't eat or sleep. I will stay here tonight to take care of my father. You can take everyone back."
An Yunxi made up her mind to stay.
Ling Fengxun stood beside her, his presence was very strong, making Aunt Liu look at him several times.
She pretended not to know Ling Fengxun, and asked carefully: "Miss, who is this..."
An Yunxi glanced at him and said: "The current Regent."
As soon as these words came out, Aunt Liu knelt on the ground.
General An seemed to have just reacted, but he couldn't get out of bed, so he could only say on the bed: "Please forgive me, Regent, I am inconvenient and cannot salute you."
Ling Fengxun curled the corners of his lips, and his voice was neither salty nor light: "It doesn't matter, today I am here to visit General An's injury, and I also brought some good healing medicine."
As he said that, he took out a bottle of medicine from his sleeve and placed it on the table next to him.
General An's expression suddenly changed.
How could the Regent be so kind?
An Yunxi said to a servant at the door: "Why are you still standing there? The prince gave me medicine, why don't you give it to my father?"
The servant immediately walked in with his head down, took the medicine and came to the bedside.
Ling Fengxun said: "One person may not be enough, Axi, call two more people in."
An Yunxi didn't know what kind of medicine Ling Fengxun was selling.
But she was looking forward to the next scene.
General An thought it was not good, and immediately struggled to speak: "Your Majesty, there is no need, the doctor has already applied medicine to me."
Ling Fengxun opened his lips: "My medicine is different from theirs, it can make General An recover faster."
"Huh?" General An slightly widened his eyes.
Afterwards, An Yunxi called two more servants in, and she and Ling Fengxun left the room together.
After all, this scene was not good for the eyes, so she had better not watch it.
Not long after ,
a scream like a pig being slaughtered came from the room.
It was so painful that a general could not even scream when being beaten.
"General!" Aunt Liu was instantly worried and immediately walked in with her skirt lifted.
Then her voice came from inside: "Let the general go, don't apply the medicine!"
She realized that Ling Fengxun was not here to deliver the medicine, but to make things worse.
If all the medicine was applied, General An would probably die from the pain.
An Yunxi couldn't help but want to laugh.
She turned her head to glance at Ling Fengxun, and then asked in a low voice: "What kind of medicine did you give?"
Ling Fengxun lowered his eyes slightly: "It is indeed a wound medicine."
This is true. After all, he can't let anyone catch him and say that he poisoned General An.
"Then how did he become like this?"
An Yunxi didn't believe it at all.
Ling Fengxun's mouth curled up slightly, and his handsome face looked like a god covered with a layer of light under the moonlight.
"That medicine is used to test prisoners who are tortured in the torture room. The healing effect is indeed good, but it is more painful than punishment."
After hearing this, An Yunxi slightly widened her eyes.
"Do you have more of this good stuff?"
She planned to send it to An Ruxue as well.
Ling Fengxun's eyes narrowed slightly: "I came in a hurry, so I only brought one bottle."
An Yunxi couldn't help but sigh: "That's a pity."
Ling Fengxun glanced at the sky. The dark sky was covered with stars, but he had no intention of leaving.
"Axi, prepare a room for the king."
An Yunxi wondered, "Is the prince not going back to the palace?"
Ling Fengxun answered as a matter of course, "It's too late, the road is dangerous, and we have to search the general's mansion tomorrow. It's troublesome to go back and forth."
An Yunxi: ""
That makes sense, she was speechless!
But as the number one master in Beiling, can he say this?
Who in the entire Beiling Kingdom can be more dangerous than him!
She didn't say anything else, and she arranged Ling Fengxun in the guest room as a host.
As a result, just as she fell asleep, this man climbed into her room in the middle of the night, secretly hugged her on the bed, and slept all night
. The next morning.
The sun rose in the general's mansion, and An Yunxi touched the place beside her.
It was already cold.
It seems that the person has already left. It is probably because she is really afraid that someone from the General's Mansion will come in and see her, which will affect her reputation.
With a smile on her lips, An Yunxi simply washed up and came to Madam An's yard.
Madam An had a good rest last night. General An's pain did not affect her mood. After seeing An Yunxi coming, she hurriedly invited her to have breakfast.
"I have sent someone to deliver food to the prince."
An Yunxi nodded: "That's good. By the way, mother, Yunxi has something to tell you."
Madam An looked good today, with rosy cheeks. Because the snake poison was removed, she was even more energetic than before.
"You talk, mother is listening."
An Yunxi put the wind chime directly on the table.
"There are two things in total. One is that before my daughter got into the sedan chair, someone brought her a cup of drugged tea. Also, someone put cold Zhixiang into this wind bell, intending to make my daughter childless."
An Yunxi didn't waste any words and told everything to Madam An directly. When
Madam An heard this, she felt like she couldn't eat anymore. She immediately put down her chopsticks and her face was as cold as ice.
"Who did it?"
An Yunxi replied, "An Ruxue and Aunt Liu."
Upon hearing her say this, Madam An, who had expected it, immediately said, "Come, call Aunt Liu over."
An Ruxue was seriously injured and couldn't get out of bed. She was still in a daze, so it was useless for her to call her.
The servants in the mansion immediately went to call, and not long after, Aunt Liu came in from outside with a few people.
Seeing that only Madam An and An Yunxi were here, Aunt Liu still had a smile on her face, and asked as if she knew nothing: "Sister asked me to come here?"
Her face was a little weak and haggard, obviously she didn't sleep well last night, with a little sickly tenderness.
Madam An's face was cold, and almost all her emotions were shown on her face.
"Aunt Liu, do you know your fault?"
Aunt Liu's full name was Liu Yingshuang. Seeing that Madam An was so angry, she immediately bowed and saluted: "Sister, I don't know how I angered my sister, please tell me."
Madam An pointed to the wind chime on the table: "Did you hide the spices in it?"
Aunt Liu's face turned pale and bit the corner of her lip.
She performed an innocent look, which was simply superb. Compared with her, An Ruxue was nothing.
"What are you talking about, sister? Are you suspecting that my sister has harmed the eldest lady?"
Mrs. An's voice was cold. Her daughter was her soft spot, and she would not allow anyone to touch her.
Although she was weak in character, she was naturally good at protecting her children.
The Du family was also protective of their own shortcomings.
"We'll know whether it was you in a moment. Come on, go search Aunt Liu's room."
Aunt Liu's expression changed: "Sister, how can you search my sister's room for no reason?"
Madam An snorted coldly.
"I am the mistress of the house. Do I need your permission to search the room of a concubine of yours?"
Aunt Liu lowered her head, clenched her fingers tightly, and her long nails left a mark on her palm.
She lowered her head, "Sister is right. In your eyes, my sister is just a servant. You can search as you want."
She looked very aggrieved.
But since she believed An Yunxi's words, Madam An never had a good face to her again.
Compared with outsiders, it is obvious that her daughter is more trustworthy.
A moment later, a nanny came to report.
