This assassination attempt was not that simple. It could be carried out in the heavily guarded royal forest. It must be someone colluding from inside and outside. Moreover, when he was fighting with those assassins, although those people were masked, their martial arts moves did not seem like those of the Qi people.
Then, there must be spies from the enemy country around him.
Otherwise, how could they know his whereabouts so clearly? They made such thorough arrangements, they must have thought that he would definitely die this time.
I wonder how the mastermind behind the scenes would feel if he saw that he was still alive. It seems that I have to pay close attention to the people around me.
Mo Qiyuan pondered these things in his mind and lay there for a long time. He felt so thirsty that he called out to wake Chen Fuquan up.
When Chen Fuquan sat up and saw that the emperor had woken up, he was overjoyed and tears of excitement streamed down his face. When he heard the emperor say he wanted to drink water, he hurriedly crawled over to pour some water for the emperor to drink.
Mo Qiyuan drank some water, and his throat wasn't as uncomfortable as before. He cleared his throat and asked:
"How long have I been sleeping? When did I return to the palace?"
Chen Fuquan quickly answered him:
"Your Majesty, you have been in a coma for a whole day and night. You don't know that when I found you last night, I saw you lying in a pool of blood. I was so scared that I lost my soul. After sending you back to the villa, you had a fever all night. The Empress Dowager was worried and afraid that the villa was not safe, so she ordered people to set off back to the palace this afternoon."
Mo Qiyuan nodded expressionlessly, "Then what about my assassination and poisoning..."
"Your Majesty, rest assured. The Empress Dowager has already told those who know about this matter that if the news gets out, none of them will be able to escape, so no one will tell anyone."
"Well, that's good. What did the imperial physician say after examining my body?"
When talking about this, Chen Fuquan was amazed.
"Your Majesty, isn't it strange? The imperial physician said that you were originally poisoned, and the poison had already penetrated your heart meridians. However, for some reason, at the moment of your crisis, the toxins in your body were actually dissolved.
The imperial physician also said that based on the extent of your heart damage, if you hadn't been able to detoxify in time, you would have been dead. It was truly a blessing from heaven that you had this fortuitous encounter, saving you from danger."
Mo Qiyuan felt a little warm at the thought. It was indeed a blessing from heaven, and a fortuitous encounter, indeed. That woman was like a fairy sent by heaven to save her. He just didn't know who she was or where she was...
Thinking of this, Mo Qiyuan waved to him, asked him to lean over, and said something in his ear.
Chen Fuquan was surprised when he heard this. "Your Majesty, are you saying that a woman in the mountains saved you? You want to find her?"
"Well, remember, have someone do this quietly and don't let anyone know about it," he paused and added, "Don't tell my mother either."
The woman had used her own blood to detoxify him, which showed that she had a special physique and her blood had the ability to detoxify. If others knew about this, it would be detrimental to her, and he would not allow such a thing to happen.
As for hiding it from the Queen Mother, it was because I didn't want her to be suspicious after she knew about it, wondering why that woman happened to appear there by chance.
He had thought about this reason himself, but he thought that since she saved him, it meant that the assassination had nothing to do with her, and he remembered how she looked when she saved him.
Even though she was so afraid of pain, she still cut her arm to save him. It must have been a coincidence that she saved him, so he had to protect her too.
