Tai Banxue looked at Minister Tai in astonishment. Her cheeks were pale with an unhealthy flush, her lips were dry and chapped, and her whole body was sore and weak that even sitting on the bed was a bit strenuous.
Then she started coughing, and Minister Tai sighed beside her: "If you are not feeling well, then don't say anything and wait for the doctor to come!"
Tai Banxue nodded, but still felt very weak.
Soon the doctor came and took the patient's pulse. He was very surprised: "This, this..."
After finishing speaking, he congratulated Minister Tai with surprise: "Congratulations, Your Excellency, Miss Tai's pulse shows that she is gradually getting better. I never thought that Miss Tai is so lucky that she can even resist the plague!"
Both Tai Shangshu and Tai Banxue were a little confused. They didn't expect the surprise to come so suddenly?
I still think Tai Banxue is going to die...
The whole government should have been celebrating, but Minister Tai's expression turned serious: "Do it again!"
Then he said to all the servants present, "You, go and get some doctors!"
Then all the servants retreated.
The doctor felt that his competence was being questioned and was very unhappy, but he did not dare to argue and honestly took Tai Banxue's pulse again.
But Minister Tai spoke up and reminded him, "I don't want the news to spread that she's getting better!"
The doctor and Tai Banxue looked at Minister Tai in confusion, not knowing what he meant...
Afterwards, the doctor walked out with a sad face, sighing as he walked.
Elder Tai walked over quickly and asked, "Doctor, doctor, how is my daughter?"
The doctor sighed, "When I first took her pulse, I thought she was getting better, but when I took her pulse again, alas... I am incompetent!"
Having said that, he bowed and walked away.
In the room, Tai Banxue looked up at Minister Tai and asked in confusion, "Grandpa, what exactly do you want to do? Banxue doesn't understand!"
Minister Tai glanced around and saw that there was no one around, then he responded in a low voice: "Grandpa just told you that he wanted you to be Zou Yangyao's legal wife."
Tai Banxue nodded and listened attentively.
"But you don't know that Xiao Chu'er...was also infected while trying to treat you, but the medicine she used was different from yours!"
Tai Banxue still looked at Minister Tai strangely, not understanding.
Minister Tai continued to explain: "If she knew that you were not well, she would definitely not know that the prescription she prescribed was effective. If she had not taken the effective prescription, the plague would have taken her life in just a few days!"
Tai Banxue looked at Minister Tai in astonishment, as if he had seen a ghost.
Minister Tai made a gesture to keep quiet. Other doctors came in from outside. Minister Tai looked solemn and said to them, "Go outside and wait!"
The doctors were kicked out as soon as they entered. Very depressed, Minister Tai's eyes fell on Tai Banxue: "If Xiao Chu'er wasn't here, you would be Zou Yangyao's only legal wife!"
"Grandpa! This is too despicable! And you also said that Xiao Chuer got sick because of me!" Although Tai Banxue spoke excitedly, she was very weak at the moment and could not raise her voice at all.
Minister Tai sighed, "Banxue, my good child, I don't want to force you to be a vicious person, but you must know that from the moment you were captured and brought to the Prince's Mansion, everything has been a conspiracy!"
Tai Banxue stared blankly at Minister Tai. Minister Tai was somewhat resentful, but things had already developed to this point, and it was meaningless to be angry.
Afterwards, he told Tai Banxue everything he had guessed. Tai Banxue clutched the quilt tightly in her hands.
"I thought he really cared about me, so he asked his wife to come and treat me, but it turns out he did it out of guilt..." She closed her eyes and said this, very angry.
Minister Tai's brows knitted together: "Banxue, listen to Grandpa!"
Finally, the doctors who had been asked to leave were called back into the room. When they walked out again, they shook their heads with regret and said, "Alas, there is no hope, no hope."
Afterwards, the Shangshu Mansion prepared a carriage at night, put away the bridal gowns, and prepared to send Tai Banxue out of the city.
As long as Tai Banxue was sent away, no one would know whether she recovered or not. Xiao Chuer of the General's Mansion would eventually die of the plague because she did not know that the previous prescription was effective and there was no medicine to cure it.
