Chapter 310 Paralyzed?

Just when the maid was about to ask Fangcong to leave, the curtain in the inner hall finally moved.

It was Jiang Yuanzheng who was helped out by Doctor Zhang Yu.

There was no time to agree. Everyone stood up with Huo Jinchi. Yun Qin lagged behind and did not surround them. Instead, she watched quietly from behind the crowd.

Dr. Jiang seemed a little weak and leaned on Dr. Zhang Yu, his hands still shaking from continuous acupuncture.

Even if Huo Jinchi could keep his composure, he couldn't help but get anxious at this moment and asked, "How is the Queen Mother now?"

"I've been pulled back from the brink of death, but..." Jiang Yuanzheng sighed tiredly.

Doctor Zhang Yu took over his words and continued, "However, the Queen Mother has already shown symptoms of a stroke. Even if she survives, it will be difficult for her to recover."

Yun Qin understood. In layman's terms, the Queen Mother was saved, but paralyzed...

Paralyzed?

Her eyes flickered slightly. Even if one is paralyzed, it depends on the situation, whether it is serious or minor.

The patient may become paralyzed all over, with crooked mouth and eyes, inability to speak, or even incontinence.

Small, just partial, can walk with a cane, can speak...

Of course, she can still show off her power as the Queen Mother.

I just don’t know what the Queen Mother’s situation is.

As Yun Qin had a thought, Huo Jinchi had already opened the curtain and rushed into the inner hall. Soon, a vague "oh oh" sound came from inside.

The voice was obviously the slightly aged voice of the Queen Mother.

Yun Qin's mouth twitched slightly.

Ouch...

Yun Qin's secret tone was full of twists and turns.

The Queen Mother is obviously in the first category. It is really hard not to take pleasure in her misfortune.

Not only she heard the sound, but everyone else in the hall heard it too.

Needless to say, the Queen and Fang Danying were shocked. They ignored all the rules and opened the curtains and walked in.

Concubine Shen hesitated for a moment, glanced at Yun Qin, and seeing that she did not move, she also stood there without moving.

Yun Qin did not notice her action because her eyes were already looking at Prince Rui who was standing beside her.

His face was filled with shock and worry, and it was hard to see any flaws.

Either it really comes from the heart, or he is also an award-winning actor.

Yun Qin complained in her heart, but she actually thought the second possibility was the most likely.

Because no one has as much information as she does, and by connecting this information together and working backwards, they can find many loopholes in him.

The most obvious one is how could Prince Rui, who has always been calm and self-possessed, get drunk at the little princess's hundred-day banquet?

He was even so drunk that he couldn't leave the palace and had to stay in the temporary palace.

Hawking has already answered this question for her.

Prince Rui might have gotten drunk because he was thinking of his mother, or he might have just pretended to be drunk in order to stay in the palace and pay tribute to his deceased mother.

Obviously, Prince Rui exposed this problem on purpose.

So even though Hawking knew that he might be pretending to be drunk, he did not react and even kept him.

But what if the memorial service for the deceased mother is itself a deception?

It is to hide his bigger plot, his ultimate goal.

That is to dress up as a ghost to scare the Queen Mother, or to seek justice for his deceased mother.

Not only did he pretend to be sick and stay in the palace to use this time to make plans, he also came to visit the Queen Mother yesterday and found out about her current physical condition.

What's worse, Hawking hosted a farewell banquet for him last night, and he has sufficient alibi.

The plan is so thorough that even if the eunuch is found, Prince Rui will definitely not be implicated.

Thinking of this, Yun Qin wanted to applaud Prince Rui.

Prince Rui naturally noticed Yun Qin's gaze on him again. Since there were few people in the palace, he said directly, "Madam Xipin, do you have anything to say to me?"

Facing his question, Yun Qin did not show any embarrassment or evasion, and said calmly: "I just think that Prince Rui is really unlucky. First he was ill for a while, and then he ran into such an unlucky thing."

There was neither tension nor worry in her tone, but rather a relaxed tone, with a hint of teasing.

This attitude made Prince Rui stunned.

Even if she didn't care about the Queen Mother at all, she should have pretended in this situation, but she was too lazy to act.

If Yun Qin heard this, she would laugh out loud.

Who are you performing for?

Hawking Pool?

Even if she really showed sadness and worry, would he believe it?

She didn't applaud, but just laughed twice on the spot to give him face!

Although, Yun Qin didn't do it herself, she still felt very happy!

Let alone revealing it, she now just wanted to shake hands with Prince Rui and exchange her experiences.

But seeing the shocked expressions on Prince Rui and Concubine Shen's faces, she still restrained herself a little and revealed some concerns, "The assassin who harmed the Queen Mother has not been caught yet!"

This is also a reminder to Prince Rui that Hawking Chi's interrogation will only be stricter than it is now, so he should not be blinded by the short-lived victory and get caught.

I wonder how that eunuch is doing now?

Hopefully he can clean things up a bit.

Yun Qin felt that given Huo Jinchi's sharpness and cleverness, he might have already suspected Prince Rui. If they used him as the starting point and investigated further, they might end up with the eunuch.

Prince Rui came back to his senses after being shocked, and said to Yun Qin: "What Concubine Xi said is right. I hope we can find the assassin as soon as possible."

He sighed as he spoke, and apparently agreed with Yun Qin's "unlucky" statement.

But Yun Qin's repeated attempts still made him suspicious, and he couldn't help but test her again, "Your Majesty seems to be more interested in the assassin?"

Interested?

How dare she...

It is better not to point out such things, so as not to bring trouble upon herself and make Prince Rui want to kill her.

"This assassin is truly despicable. He kept me awake all night." Yun Qin said, covering the lower half of her face as if she was yawning.

Her answer not only showed that she didn't really care about the assassin, but also told Prince Rui that she didn't care at all about the Queen Mother's life or death.

Prince Rui's eyebrows relaxed slightly, and he looked at Yun Qin deeply, agreeing, "It is indeed disturbing."

Concubine Shen looked at the two people talking back and forth and felt a little confused.

I haven't heard that Concubine Xi and Prince Rui are so familiar with each other?

After that, no one spoke in the hall.

Until Hawking Chi came out from the inner hall with a gloomy face, pulling open the curtain.
