Chapter 197 Found
The accompanying imperial physician was named Liu. When his name was called, he did not dare to delay and hurried forward to examine the patient.
He didn't dare to offend the Crown Princess, so he asked her to raise her hand to reveal the swelling. From a distance, he only needed to take one look to understand what was going on.
"The Crown Princess was stung by a bee. It's nothing serious. Just apply some ointment to relieve the itch and pain over the next few days."
"Ah? So it's honey?" Yun Bailian bit her lip. "But if the Imperial Aunt hadn't insisted on coming to the Imperial Garden..."
Yun Qingqing rolled her eyes and choked her back:
"Someone is pointing a sword at you?"
Yun Bailian's face flushed red, and she gritted her teeth and wanted to fight back, but suddenly she felt the regent's cold gaze, shuddered and shut her mouth.
Yun Qingqing gave her a mocking look:
"I warned you not to follow me, didn't I? You insisted on following me and messing with the honey in this garden. Who can you blame?"
Xiao Zirui couldn't bear to listen any longer and said coldly:
"Bai Lian was just unlucky and got stung. It's too much for the Queen Aunt to gloat over her misfortune!"
He thought he was speaking for Yun Bailian, but Yun Bailian's expression changed immediately when she heard "bad luck", but Xiao Zirui didn't notice it at all.
Yun Qingqing burst out laughing:
"Just? Bad luck?"
She tilted her ear to listen and said with a smile:
"Then do you want to listen to what that sound is coming from over there?"
"Hmm?" Xiao Zirui didn't react, and subconsciously tilted his ear to listen carefully, and suddenly a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but hold their breath.
Sure enough, I heard a buzzing sound coming from far away.
"This is……"
"There's actually a sound coming this way!"
"What is it... Come closer, let me see..."
The sound was getting closer and closer, and finally someone saw it clearly, and his face suddenly changed!
"Hiss... It's a swarm of bees! Such a huge swarm!"
"Run! Too many bee stings can kill you!"
"Look at the size of it, it's a wasp! Your Majesty, run away!"
Seeing Yun Qingqing was calm and composed, Xiao Changheng immediately lowered his voice and said:
"Quiet! What are you panicking about?"
While everyone was stunned, Yun Qingqing raised the corner of her lips and said loudly:
"Honey never attacks. If there's nothing to attract it, it won't come. What's there to be afraid of?"
As they were talking, the honeys had already arrived. They passed over the Regent and his wife who were the first to be hit, and went straight towards Yun Bailian.
Everyone stepped back quickly, their eyes wide open.
This swarm of bees really isn't just for everyone.
Some people thought of Yun Qingqing's words and reacted:
"Could it be that Hundred Flower Dew..."
"That's right! Honey must be collected from flowers. It must love the taste of the flower dew, so it came here for the Crown Princess!"
"Then let's stay away and don't move. As long as we don't disturb the swarm, we'll be fine."
Everyone felt much more at ease.
Yun Bailian was so scared that she screamed and fled in panic, waving her sleeves to drive away the swarm of bees.
"Ahhh! Don't look for me! Help, drive them away! Ah——"
It would have been better if she didn't wave her sleeves. Instead, this movement stimulated the bees, and she was stung several times. The pain made her scream even louder.
Yun Qingqing crossed her arms and said slowly:
"I've already told you honey won't attack you. If you just stand there quietly, they won't sting you."
Yun Bailian was not listening to any of this and was just trying to escape. As a result, she tripped and started rolling and crawling.
Xiao Zirui's expression changed again and again. He hesitated to go forward to help, but was afraid that he would suffer as well.
He heard Yun Qingqing's sneer:
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is very composed. Even when his own wife is in such a state, he still managed to restrain himself and not save her."
Xiao Zirui glared at her fiercely, gritted his teeth, took off his brocade robe and wrapped it around his head, rushed over, hugged Yun Bailian, ran straight to the pond next to him and jumped in.
Yun Bailian was in pain and scared. She just snuggled into Xiao Zirui's arms, but unexpectedly she was thrown directly into the water.
Her mind was in a mess and she instinctively struggled to get to the surface of the water, but Xiao Zirui pushed her head back into the water, choking her head.
"Prince...Brother Gulu...Gulu, don't...save Gulu Gulu..."
The more he pressed her, the harder she struggled. Although Xiao Zirui had covered her head and face, his hands were bitten a few times and he was in so much pain that he was gritting his teeth.
He was so focused on getting rid of the swarm of bees that he forgot to remind Yun Bailian to hold her breath and just focused on pressing her head hard.
When the swarm of bees finally dispersed, Yun Bailian's face was swollen like a pig's head and she was choked to death.
Yun Qingqing finally came to her senses and shouted:
"What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and rescue the Crown Prince and Crown Princess!"
"Why don't you follow the princess's orders!" Xiao Changheng curved his eyebrows slightly and ordered the imperial guards to rescue the person.
Xiao Zirui dragged Yun Bailian exhaustedly and climbed ashore using the pole handed to him by the imperial guards. He looked extremely embarrassed.
Yun Bailian coughed violently, and before she could catch her breath, her heart was filled with anger.
She suddenly turned her head to look at Yun Qingqing, the hatred in her eyes no longer suppressed.
But she had already walked forward with her people, leaving behind a sentence:
"The Crown Princess is blessed with a long life. Now that you are alright, you can rest for now. It is more important to find Commander Yan's whereabouts."
Yun Bailian grabbed Xiao Zirui's sleeve tightly and screamed:
"You...you did it on purpose! What are you looking for Commander Yan's whereabouts? How could he be in the Imperial Garden? You clearly came here to harm me!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Yun Qingqing's voice slap her in the face:
“Found it!”
