Chapter 456: Ruo Ruhui is in danger
Yu Mingzhu said softly, "Mother, there may be some misunderstanding here... I wanted to ask Miss Yu to take out the sachet for us to check, so that Miss Yu can be cleared of all charges, but Miss Yu felt that this was not a good idea."
With just a few words, Yu Mingzhu changed the nature of the atmosphere that was previously used to force Xingxing to hand over the things.
Jiao looked surprised: "Is Miss Yu here?"
Xing Xing took a step forward: "Madam, are you looking for me?"
Jiao was completely stunned.
Jiao didn't expect that it was her?
The little girl spoke calmly, her voice was sweet and soft, and in this house where the earthen dragon was burning brightly, it was like a bowl of icy cold porridge in summer, refreshing.
Jiao looked at Xingxing blankly, not knowing what to say.
Yu Mingzhu didn't know why, but when she saw her mother's rare loss of composure, she felt a little panic in her heart, and subconsciously reached out to hold Jiao's hand: "Mom..."
At this moment, someone suddenly cried out from outside: "Ruhui, Ruhui, hold on!"
Then a bunch of people came here in a chaotic manner.
Two old women were carrying a sedan chair, on which lay a soft body, with a face as pale as paper and eyes tightly closed. Who else could it be but Lou Ruhui?
When Jiao saw this, she cried out in amazement: "Ruhui?! What's going on?!"
Several girls nearby were already crying anxiously: "We were playing on the ice, Ruhui skated too quickly and fell to the ground, landing on the back of her head first, and there was a lot of blood..."
Jiao was anxious and asked the servants to quickly invite the court physician over, but when the doctor arrived and took Lou Ruhui's pulse, his face changed color.
"This, this Miss Lou fell and hit a vital part. I'm afraid... I'm afraid..." The court doctor frowned and shook his head repeatedly.
Jiao's face turned pale, and she asked Jingchun to go to the front yard to find the prince and take the badge to the palace to invite the imperial physician.
There was chaos in the small pavilion.
Yu Mingzhu looked extremely unhappy.
The girl named Rui Rui asked worriedly, "Ming Zhu, why do you look so bad? Are you feeling unwell?"
Jiao looked at her and said distressedly, "Zhuzhu, are you scared? Let the court doctor come and take a look at you."
Yu Mingzhu clenched her hands, trying to hide her true thoughts, revealing a worried look: "Mom, I'm fine. I'm just worried about cousin Hui..."
"Madam!" The palace doctor who had been checking Lou Ruhui's pulse from time to time said anxiously, "Miss Lou's pulse is getting weaker and weaker. Does the palace have anything to keep her alive?"
When everyone heard this, they were all panicked.
Has it reached the point where you need to hold your breath?
Jiao's heart skipped a beat, and her face turned pale: "...blood ginseng, a hundred-year-old blood ginseng will do?"
The court doctor shook his head and said, "Miss Lou has fallen and injured a vital part. She has weak Qi and blood stasis. Blood ginseng, a tonic with a dry nature, is not suitable for her to take at this time."
Jiao was so anxious that she was running around in circles, and for a moment she couldn't remember what life-saving things could help her survive.
Her life was peaceful and smooth, except for some turmoil when she was born in Mingzhu, the rest was smooth sailing, and she had never encountered any emergencies or major events. But now she was a little at a loss when something happened.
Fortunately, a maid came up with a quick idea: "I'll go ask the old lady. She might have——"
Jiao seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and nodded repeatedly: "Okay. Go quickly."
The maid left in a hurry, but the palace doctor's face remained solemn: "I don't know if Miss Lou can hold on."
Xing Xing stepped forward: "Can I feel Sister Lou's pulse?"
The court doctor was stunned: "What?"
Yu Mingzhu almost immediately said, "Miss Yu, human life is at stake. What do you mean by this?"
Everyone looked at Xing Xing again.
Even Jiao couldn't help but look at this child, who became a little distracted when she saw him.
Xing Xing said seriously: "I brought some medicine to strengthen the Qi and calm the mind, but I still have to check my lower pulse to see if it is suitable."
Bai Huanqin sneered, "You are the only one who can poison people, but you can also take their pulse?! Don't you want to take this opportunity to poison Lou Ruhui?"
Xing Xing ignored her and looked at the court doctor: "Doctor, I'm only checking the lower pulse, it won't harm Sister Lou's body, right?"
The court doctor hesitated and said, "That won't happen..."
Xing Xing didn't say anything more to Yu Mingzhu or Bai Huanqin. She just walked forward and gently placed her hand on Lou Ruhui's wrist.
Seeing that Xing Xing ignored her, Bai Huanqin angrily said, "You!"
"Tsk." Xing Xing put her other hand in front of her lips, signaling Bai Huanqin to stop making noise.
Bai Huanqin's eyes became bloodshot due to anger. He stared at Xing Xing coldly, waiting to see how she would end up.
Xing Xing withdrew her hand from Luo Ruhui's wrist.
Bai Huanqin sneered at the side and said, "Pretend, pretend again!"
Xing Xing ignored Bai Huanqin, opened the sachet, took out a pill, and handed it to the court doctor: "Doctor Lao, take a look at this pill."
The court doctor took it, sniffed it, took a tiny bit, tasted the ingredients, and was immediately overjoyed: "This is a good thing! Quick, quick, let Miss Lou take it!"
The old woman came up quickly and helped feed the pill into Lou Ruhui's mouth with water.
Fortunately, I can still feed it.
Jiao was a little confused: "Doctor, this..."
The court doctor bowed to Jiao, with a rare look of excitement on his face: "Madam, this pill given by this young lady has a mild and neutral medicinal property, which is very suitable for Miss Lou's condition. With this pill, Miss Lou can hold on until the imperial physician comes!"
Jiao was also overjoyed when she heard this. She couldn't help but look at Xing Xing and said softly, "Ms. Yu, thank you so much."
Xing Xing shook her head: "Sister Lou was very kind to me today, so it was my duty to save her."
The maid also got some medicine from the old lady to help with breathing. The court doctor looked at them one by one, wiped the sweat off his forehead, and said with a bit of relief: "Fortunately, this young lady is here. These medicines are not quite suitable for the symptoms, and are not as effective as this young lady's medicine."
Aunt Jingchun invited the imperial physician who was good at treating injuries from the palace to come over. After the physician performed operations for nearly half an hour, Lou Ruhui was finally saved.
At this time, after receiving the news, Lou Ruhui's family members who were waiting outside the house felt their legs go weak and they almost fell to the ground.
The doctor wiped the sweat off his head and said, "Fortunately, Miss Lou is still alive. Otherwise, by the time I get here, even a great immortal wouldn't be able to save her."
Lou Ruhui's mother hurriedly thanked Jiao: "Sister-in-law, thank you very much."
Luo Ruhui's mother was a married lady from the Xin Guo Mansion, so naturally she had to call Jiao "sister-in-law".
Jiao waved her hands repeatedly and said, "It was General Zhenxi's sister who gave me the medicine."
Ruhui's mother's eyes were moist, and she held Xingxing's hand and said, "My dear, if it weren't for you, Ruhui would probably..."
Some young ladies could not help but whisper:
"Bai Huanqin also said that General Yu's sister's sachet contained poison!"
"This isn't poison at all, it's clearly a life-saving elixir!"
"I see, it's obviously that Bai Huanqin who is petty, deliberately touching the black girl like this!"
“That’s too much!”
When Bai Huanqin heard this, her face turned dark!
