Chapter 214 Make Other Plans
Old Mrs. Xie's eyes were already blurred by the mist from Xie Rongying's call of "Grandma", while Grandma Sun was crying with joy beside her.
"The girl is awake, the girl is awake."
After hearing this, the doctor who was guarding the outer room walked into the inner room, walked to Xie Rongying's side, bent down and began to take her pulse, and then probed Xie Rongying's forehead, cheeks and neck.
Seeing that the fever had finally subsided, he exhaled a breath of turbid air: "Although the girl's pulse is still weak, it is much better than last night."
"Yes, is everything okay?" Mrs. Xie asked nervously.
The doctor pondered for a moment and said, "Old Madam, as long as the girl doesn't get any more irritated and rests well, she shouldn't be seriously injured. It's just that it's still difficult to move her now. If the wound is disturbed, even a god wouldn't be able to help her."
Madam Xie stood up, shook the doctor's hand, and said with sincere gratitude, "Thank you so much! Rongying was able to save her life."
The old lady had already made plans for the worst and was ready to be separated from her granddaughter forever.
Now I heard that it was nothing serious, although the doctor's words "no serious" sounded a bit dangerous.
She was also very grateful.
"Old Madam, you are too polite. This is what I should do." The doctor looked at the old woman's tearful face and felt extremely sad. "Everyone, go out. The girl needs to rest. I will go and prepare a plaster for her."
"Mother Sun, please send the doctor off," said the old lady.
"Yes." Mother Sun said and followed the doctor out.
Xie Rongying on the bed wanted to keep her eyes open a little longer, but her eyelids felt too heavy and she fell asleep again.
Seeing this, Cuizhi immediately went to the old lady's side and said, "Old lady, the girl has fallen asleep again."
Madam Xie gathered her thoughts and said, "It's okay, it's okay. The doctor said you need to rest. As long as you wake up, you'll be fine."
As she spoke, Old Madam Xie turned sideways to look at Xie Jing and the others and said, "Changfeng, take your uncle back to the mansion. I'll be guarding here."
Xie Jing's gaze paused for a moment in the direction of Xie Rongying, and he said to the old lady, "Thank you for your hard work, mother."
Old Madam Xie waved her hand. She could see some anxiety in Xie Jing's expression. He was anxious to leave here because he was afraid of meeting Yan.
Ever since Yan left the Xie family, she has never set foot in Bian Jing again.
Over the years, Xie Jing and Yan have grown to dislike each other.
The divorce agreement had already been prepared in Xie Jing's study, but why had it not been handed to Yan?
I think only Xie Jing knows the answer.
Old Madam Xie sat back in the armchair and her eyes fell on Xie Rongying again.
Her nerves, which had been tense all night, finally relaxed at this moment.
"Madam, I have asked the people in Kaifeng Prefecture to prepare an ear room. You should go and have a rest." Dongxue walked forward and said.
At this time, Mother Sun also came in.
"Madam, someone is coming from the palace." After Mother Sun finished speaking, the person following behind her had already walked in.
Upon hearing this, Madam Xie immediately stood up and looked at the nanny walking towards her, with a complicated look on her face.
"Thank you, Madam." Nanny Liu walked forward and bowed.
Mrs. Xie stepped forward and helped him up.
After standing up straight, Madam Liu said, "I am a servant of the Empress Chen. I am here to visit the young lady on her orders. My husband's surname is Liu. You can just call me Madam Liu."
"Madame Liu." Old Lady Xie nodded and looked up at the palace maid holding something in her hand behind Madame Liu.
Madam Liu looked towards the bed and asked with concern, "Madam, is the young lady okay?"
Madam Xie pondered for a moment and forced a smile: "The doctor said it's not very good."
Sure enough, when Aunt Liu heard that the situation was not good, a look of panic flashed across her face: "The injury is so serious!"
When Matron Liu came to Kaifeng Mansion, the news of Xie Rongying's serious injuries had already reached the ears of Concubine Chen, so Concubine Chen arranged for her to come.
Madam Xie sighed.
"Don't worry, old lady. Young Madam is blessed with good fortune. Good things are yet to come." As Madam Liu spoke, she glanced at the palace maids behind her and said, "Put down all these supplements and wait for me outside."
"yes."
After the maids put down the supplements and left one after another, Madam Liu approached Old Madam Xie and said, "Old Madam, let me speak a few words from the heart to you."
Old Madam Xie had a vague guess that the Madam Liu in front of her not only represented Concubine Chen, but also Emperor Ren De.
"The events at the Yongyi Marquis' mansion have been a hot topic. It was the Yongyi Marquis who captured the Shangguan family for collaborating with the enemy and treason, and the people guarding the Shangguan family were also sent by the Yongyi Marquis. So many years have passed, and the Shangguan family is still alive and well. Now that the border is raging, Shangguan Yan's collusion with the Yongyi Marquis is bound to cause internal and external troubles for Dayin. Consort Chen is also worried about Dayin's safety."
Old Madam Xie frowned when she saw that Nanny Liu had already talked about matters of family and country.
"The Xie family is now the emperor's trusted confidant. Fourth Master Xie is suppressing the Jin invaders at the border, and the Xie family is ensuring sufficient food and supplies for the soldiers in Bianjing. Now, the Xie family's daughter has discovered that Marquis Yongyi is colluding with Shangguan Yan. The Xie family is truly loyal to the emperor and his trusted confidants."
"Madam, you're too kind. What the Xie family did was what the people of Dayin should do. The food and supplies weren't solely the work of the Xie family. Many merchants and citizens of Dayin, as well as the national treasury, were crucial in ensuring the logistics of the soldiers at the border. As for my granddaughter, I simply didn't want the Xie family to be implicated because of the events at the Marquis of Yongyi's mansion."
"Anyone would do everything they can to report to the emperor that the Marquis of Yongyi's mansion is colluding with foreign enemies."
Old Madam Xie finally understood why Nanny Liu appeared.
Win over the Xie family.
It seems that this is really just the Empress Chen's intention.
This Concubine Chen is really good at taking advantage of every opportunity and trying to win over the Xie family at this critical moment.
It turns out that there is no one who keeps to himself in the palace.
Aunt Liu responded appropriately to what Old Madam Xie said, her expression unchanged: "That's right, Old Madam."
As she spoke, Madam Liu looked at the supplements placed on the round pear blossom table and said, "Old Madam, this is a gift from the Empress Chen. If the young lady needs it, as long as the Empress can afford it, please feel free to ask."
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty." Madam Xie nodded in response.
Nanny Liu saw that Old Madam Xie was unwilling to respond and smiled faintly, "I think the young lady needs to rest. I will return to the palace to report."
"Please ask Madam Liu to thank the Empress on behalf of an old woman like me," said Mrs. Xie.
Madam Liu nodded and said, "Don't worry, Madam. I will definitely bring it to you. I'll take my leave now."
Madam Xie nodded and looked at Madam Sun: "See Madam Liu off."
"yes."
After Nanny Liu left, Madam Xie took a deep breath. It seemed that because of the events at the Yongyi Marquis' Mansion, the Xie family had also been pushed to the forefront.
