Chapter 1089 Miss Baofu woke up!
Baofu struggled to get up from the bed.
She doesn't want to die, she wants to live.
She was going to ask someone for help.
However, the arsenic in her body had already taken effect. Severe pain swept through her body, and her limbs were sore and weak that she could not stand up even if she used all her strength.
Finally, she fell off the bed to the ground in a mess.
She lay on the cold, flat ground, gritted her teeth, and used her hands and feet to crawl towards the door bit by bit with difficulty.
But before she could crawl to the door, her eyes went dark and she fainted.
Zhao Xian and his guards rushed into the Yanyu Palace aggressively.
Yan Cairen had already made preparations. When she saw them coming, she deliberately showed a look of surprise.
"What are you doing? This is the residence of the imperial concubines. How can you barge in without permission?"
Zhao Xian showed the imperial edict written by the emperor himself and said in a deep voice.
"I have been ordered to take Miss Baofu to ask her a few questions. Please help me."
Although Lady Yan was somewhat dissatisfied, she still said, "Since it is the emperor's order, I naturally dare not disobey it. However, Baofu has been feeling a little uncomfortable these past two days. She is resting in her room. If you want to see her, you have to go to her room to find her."
Zhao Xian: "Please show me the way."
Yan Cairen estimated the time in his mind. By this time the arsenic had already taken effect, so Baofu must be dead.
She nodded: "Come with me."
Under the leadership of Yan Cairen, the guards successfully found Baofu's residence.
The doors and windows are closed.
Zhao Xian knocked on the door several times, but there was no response from the person inside.
His heart sank, and he immediately raised his foot and kicked the door open!
On the ground behind the door, Baofu was lying in an extremely embarrassing posture.
Her eyes were wide open, her lips were purple, with a streak of black blood around her mouth, her face was pale and gray, her expression was ferocious, the wound on her forehead had not yet healed, the light-colored middle-length coat she was wearing was stained with blood, and her hair was disheveled.
Everyone outside the door was shocked by this scene.
Even Yan Cairen, who had been mentally prepared, couldn't help but take a breath.
She subconsciously took two steps back, her face full of horror.
"Bao Fu is dead!"
Hearing this, Zhao Xian turned around and glanced at her.
There was something strange in that look.
"I haven't even checked yet, how can you be sure she's dead?"
Yan Cairen panicked and quickly explained, "I was just guessing. She really looks like she's dead. I don't really understand this. If I said something wrong, please don't take it to heart, General Zhao."
By the end of her speech, her eyes had turned slightly red and her face was pleading, looking extremely pitiful.
She is a rare beauty, and when she shows this expression, she is even more lovable. Any man will be attracted by her.
Zhao Xian couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
But he soon came to his senses and became alert.
This woman was just pretending to be pitiful, trying to win his sympathy and make him less suspicious of her.
If Yan Cairen had a clear conscience, she wouldn't need to do this at all.
Zhao Xian calmly withdrew his gaze and stepped forward to check Baofu's breath himself.
Unexpectedly, Baofu was still alive!
She's still alive!
Zhao Xian immediately had Baofu lifted up and put on the bed, and sent someone to call the imperial physician.
When Yan Cairen saw this, his face turned pale.
How come Baofu didn't die? She had already finished drinking the chicken soup. There was a lot of arsenic in the soup. She would definitely be poisoned to death!
Ever since Zhao Xian became wary of Yan Cairen, he has been secretly observing her every move.
At this moment, she looked frightened and seemed to be very uneasy.
Zhao Xian's suspicion of her deepened.
He sent someone to deliver a message to the emperor.
After Luo Qinghan learned about this, he immediately put down the memorial in his hand and said in a deep voice.
"Go to Misty Rain Palace."
Eunuch Chang replied respectfully, "Yes."
The dragon chariot carried the emperor to the Misty Rain Palace, surrounded by a large number of palace maids and eunuchs in light gray.
When they arrived at the Yanyu Palace in a grand procession, the imperial physician was already treating Baofu.
Yan Cairen stood by, staring at Baofu lying on the bed without blinking, her fingers unconsciously stirring the silk handkerchief. The high-quality silk handkerchief had been deformed by her.
She was totally unaware of this.
She prayed in her heart over and over again, praying that Baofu would die immediately.
At this time, someone came to report that the emperor had arrived!
Yan Cairen was so frightened that her heart almost stopped beating.
She had hoped very much that the emperor would come to the Misty Rain Palace to visit her, but now that the emperor had really come, she did not feel the slightest joy, but only deep fear and uneasiness.
Why did the emperor come at this time instead of earlier?
Is it because he knows something?
Yan Cairen didn't dare to think about it any further, for she was afraid that if she did, she would scare herself to death.
Zhao Xian looked back at her when he reached the door.
"Won't you go out to greet me?"
Yan Cairen pulled the corners of his mouth and forced out a smile that was uglier than crying: "I'll go right away."
Zhao Xian took the initiative to step aside: "Talented person, please go first."
Yan Cairen walked out of the room slowly with heavy steps.
When she walked into the main hall, the emperor was already standing there.
Yan Cairen and Zhao Xian paid their respects to the emperor one after another.
Luo Qinghan turned around, looked at them and asked.
"How are the people?"
Zhao Xian answered truthfully: "He is still being rescued."
Luo Qinghan: "You continue to watch over there, and notify me immediately if you have any news."
"Yes."
Zhao Xian turned around and left decisively.
Yan Cairen also wanted to go and watch together. She wanted to know whether Baofu was dead or alive.
However, Luo Qinghan's eyes were fixed on her.
"You stay here."
If it were in the past, Yan Cairen would have been extremely happy to hear this, but now she felt even more frightened.
She trembled and replied, "Yes."
The palace maids served refreshments.
Luo Qinghan had no intention of tasting it, he just stood there quietly.
He didn't say anything, and no one else dared to speak rashly. They all concentrated and held their breath.
For a moment, one could hear a pin drop in the hall.
It was a cold day, but Yan Cairen was so nervous that sweat broke out on his back.
From time to time, she would glance up at the emperor, trying to analyze his thoughts through his expression.
To her disappointment, the emperor remained expressionless from beginning to end.
She had no idea what was going on in his mind.
Time passes by little by little.
Yan Cairen could neither move nor speak, she could only pray madly in her heart, hoping that Baofu would die soon!
As long as Baofu dies, no one will be able to prove that she is related to the disappearance of the imperial concubine.
Just at this moment, Zhao Xian ran over quickly.
"Your Majesty, Miss Baofu has woken up! But her throat is severely damaged and she can't speak for the time being. The imperial physician said that she only needs to recuperate for a period of time before she can speak again."
Yan Cairen was struck by lightning.
She blurted out with eyes wide open in disbelief.
"How is this possible?"
Baofu had eaten so much arsenic, how could she survive? !
