Originally, no one doubted the small wound on Jing Yuchen's body, but because of Zou Yangyao's words, everyone present became suspicious of the wound.
The doctor untied the gauze bandage on Jing Yuchen's arm and then examined the wound.
The wound had been treated with medicine and didn't look unusual.
Ni Yueshan stood aside and moved closer.
The doctor raised his head and looked at the others. The others also came over to check together, but they finally concluded that there was nothing strange about the wound and everything was normal.
Isn’t the wound the reason why Jing Yuchen fell into a coma?
Ni Yueshan frowned. As the atmosphere around him grew quiet, someone spoke up, "Actually, I've heard of a case. General, please bring over the sword you used in the duel with the Regent so I can see it!"
Everyone present looked at the doctor who was speaking. He carefully examined the sword and said with some emotion, "Although this sword is new, it has not been used for a long time. Not only is it covered in dust, but it has also rusted..."
Ni Yueshan also tried to hold the sword in front of him and took a look. There were indeed rust spots on it!
Ni Yueshan frowned and shouted, "Who is the servant holding the sword? Bring him here!"
Soon, a servant knelt down on the ground timidly, looking extremely frightened.
Ni Yueshan threw the sword beside the servant and asked, "This long sword, you choose it?"
The servant knelt tremblingly, looking innocent. "Princess, I saw a sword with a red tassel in the storeroom and thought it was very auspicious, so I took it!"
"But I never thought that this sword would cause the Regent to fall into a coma! If I knew, I wouldn't dare to do it even if I had ten times the courage!"
Hearing the servant's begging for mercy, Ni Yueshan didn't believe it at all.
Just as he was about to open his mouth to scold, Zou Yangyao beside him said, "Yueshan, I had no idea that I would hurt the Regent. Both swords are covered in dust... If I were injured, I would be the only one injured. I don't think he did it on purpose!"
Listening to Zou Yangyao's explanation for the servant, Ni Yueshan questioned, "Did you call Yueshan? This servant indirectly harmed the prince, shouldn't he be punished?"
At this time, there were many guests gathered at the door who had not yet left. No one dared to say anything after hearing this.
Afterwards, she questioned Zou Yangyao, "General Zou, shouldn't you invite your wife over to take my husband's pulse?"
Zou Yangyao looked embarrassed. Not to mention, Jing Yuchen insisted on fighting him in a sword duel today.
At that time, he thought that today was a special day and peace should be valued, so he endured it.
But now you still want Xiao Chuer to come?
Who doesn’t know that Xiao Chuer is the bride today?
Can the bride go out at this time?
Zou Yangyao seemed to have heard some unreasonable joke and was a little angry, but because of Ni Yueshan's identity, he did not get angry in the end.
He could only say helplessly: "Chu'er is the bride. We haven't even had our wedding night yet. How can we let her out like this?"
When Ni Yueshan heard what Zou Yangyao said, she knew that Zou Yangyao didn't want to cooperate at all.
She snorted coldly, "Is it because of your wedding etiquette that my husband's medical treatment has been delayed? We've invited the imperial physician and the doctors, but he's still unconscious. I had no choice but to ask your wife to come!"
"If the General really doesn't want to cooperate, then you should go to the bridal chamber now. I'll give you an incense stick of time. Is that enough? An incense stick of time is more than enough! Go quickly and come back soon!"
Although Ni Yueshan's words sounded harmless, they were extremely insulting!
The people present began to whisper. Ni Yueshan's words could be said to be extremely vulgar. Although he had to act according to the emergency, it was still inappropriate to say so!
But Ni Yueshan himself stood there indifferently, looking at Zou Yangyao steadily, without the slightest embarrassment.
Zou Yangyao's face turned pale and he stood there without moving.
He was obviously enduring it and didn't know how to refute Ni Yueshan's words.
The atmosphere at this moment was very awkward and no one dared to make any noise.
In the silence, Ni Yueshan couldn't help but speak again: "Zou Yangyao!"
This sound was filled with anger, and it was very penetrating and loud!
As a man of the rank of a third-rank general, being scolded by Ni Yueshan in public was truly humiliating.
Zou Yangyao was so angry that he shook his sleeves and walked out.
Ni Yueshan looked at Zou Yangyao's back and continued in a loud voice, "Zou Yangyao, hurry up! It was you who accidentally injured the Regent. I haven't punished you yet, which is already a mercy!"
Zou Yangyao paused for just a moment, then continued walking quickly.
Outside the house, night gradually fell, and Xiao Chuer, who was supposed to spend the night with Zou Yangyao in the new house, walked slowly over.
She had changed out of her bridal attire and was wearing a simple double-breasted robe. Her hair was also simply tied up, but she was still as pure as a snow lotus and stunningly beautiful.
Xiao Chuer was not angry, nor did she say much. She first observed Jing Yuchen's physical condition before reaching out to take Jing Yuchen's pulse.
Before Xiao Chuer could even open her mouth to announce the diagnosis, Ni Yueshan angrily spoke first, "If my husband doesn't wake up after tonight, your General's Mansion will have to pay for his coma!"
Ni Yueshan's words didn't sound like he was showing any kindness, even though he knew that the General's Mansion might be innocent!
Zou Yangyao was walking towards this side at this time. When he heard Ni Yueshan's words, he paused for a moment, and finally continued to walk into the room.
He opened his mouth: "That servant is still kneeling outside. This general thinks he is innocent. Why not let someone..."
Ni Yueshan immediately glanced over with sharp eyes: "Even if this person didn't mean to harm others, he did indirectly harm the Regent. If he can be let go, then the Regent's life will be too worthless!"
There were still onlookers present. Seeing this situation, they only dared to talk in a low voice, but did not dare to say anything openly.
Xiao Chu'er, who was taking Jing Yuchen's pulse, put down her hand and said, "The Regent has a high fever. Judging from the current situation, the Regent may have been drunk and fighting, causing an injury somewhere, resulting in blood congestion, which is why he hasn't woken up yet. What's worsening his condition may be the rust on the wound, causing infection."
Xiao Chuer stood up and said seriously, "I want to give him a full body check! All outsiders, get out!"
Ni Yueshan was standing nearby. Upon hearing this, he asked in surprise, "A full body check? What do you mean? Take off all your clothes?"
