Ignoring Liu Xi's objections, everyone helped him sit down. Luo Lan lifted up the corner of his trousers and raised his hand to pull out the silver needle, but found that the area around the needle had turned black.
She blurted out,
"Oh no, this silver needle is poisonous."
As soon as she said this, everyone at the scene gasped, and Zhang Yuan also ran back with his men at this time.
"Princess, those two men in black have left. It seems the person they wanted to kill wasn't the emperor, but Eunuch Liu."
Hearing this, Luo Lan frowned in surprise.
"No matter what, we must first cure Eunuch Liu of the poison. Everyone, hurry up and help Eunuch Liu to the side room."
Everyone was afraid to delay and hurriedly helped Eunuch Liu onto the bed in the ear room. After everyone had left, Eunuch Liu, who had just been full of energy, felt drowsy in an instant.
Before he passed out, he looked at Luo Lan and begged in a low voice,
"Princess Yu, if...if I die, please...please take care of the Emperor..."
As soon as he finished saying this, he fell into a coma.
Luo Lan was very touched by his loyalty.
She didn't dare to think too much, and took him into the operating room as quickly as possible and began to prepare for surgery on him.
No matter what kind of poison he was infected with, as long as the poison was stopped in time before it penetrated into his internal organs, his life would not be in danger.
The poison that Eunuch Liu was infected with was in his ankle, so the poisoned flesh around the silver needle had to be cleaned off in time.
Luo Lan quickly gave Eunuch Liu anesthetics and began to perform surgery on him.
Since Liu Xi was poisoned for a short time, the operation went smoothly and the poison in his body was quickly cleared. However, a lot of flesh was cut off at his ankle, so he needed to lie in bed and rest.
After treating his wounds, Luo Lan moved him out of the operating room and shouted to the people outside:
"Someone come!"
Little Li and another young eunuch ran in, and Luo Lan instructed them:
"Eunuch Liu's foot injury is quite serious. You all stay here to take care of him. He can't get out of bed or walk. When he wakes up, be sure to tell me."
Little Leo asked with some concern:
"Princess, is Eunuch Liu alright?"
"My life is saved, but my foot injury will take some time to heal."
Hearing this, Little Leo breathed a sigh of relief, clenched his fists, and said solemnly:
"Thank you, Princess Yu, for saving Eunuch Liu's life."
Luo Lan nodded and chuckled at him, then turned and walked towards the door.
After all this trouble, it was already early morning. Luo Lan had no intention of going back to his room to sleep, so he simply stood at the door, staring at the stars in the sky in a daze.
I haven't been back to Prince Yu's Mansion for a few days. I don't know if that silly child Huaiyu has come out at night to look at the stars again.
And An An and Le Le, they must miss me very much.
Thinking of this, she sighed deeply and prayed silently in her heart, hoping that the emperor would wake up soon and she could return to Prince Yu's Mansion soon to live the peaceful life she longed for.
…
The assassination attempt on Liu Xi failed, and the two men in black knelt down in front of Leng Xi and lowered their heads to the ground.
Leng Xi looked at the two of them, suddenly threw his hands away, and asked loudly,
"You talk big, why do you fail?"
"Your Highness, just when we were about to succeed, Zhang Yuan suddenly jumped out and saved him. But don't worry, Liu Xi was hit by my silver needle, which is poisonous. If he doesn't get timely treatment, he will die within an hour."
"Hmph! Who is that person in the Yangxin Palace? Shui Luolan, the number one female physician in Daning Kingdom. With her around, there's no poison she can't cure? I asked you to kill a eunuch, but you can't even deal with a mere Zhang Yuan. What's the point of keeping you around?"
Seeing this, the two men in black quickly lowered their heads to the ground.
"Your Highness, please forgive me. I failed this time. We will go again tomorrow night."
"Hmph! If you can't succeed once, they've already prepared for it. If you go again, you'll undoubtedly be courting death..."
"Your Majesty..."
The two men in black seemed a little scared. They were afraid that Leng Xi would punish them if they failed to complete the mission.
Leng Xi pondered for a while, then said coldly:
"Liu Xi has been struck by your silver needles, so he must no longer be a threat. There is no need to assassinate him. Prepare yourself and be ready to follow your orders at any time."
When the two men in black heard the news, they kowtowed as if they had been pardoned.
"Thank you, Lord Xi, for giving us another chance."
"Don't be too happy too soon. The person I asked you to kill this time is much more powerful than Liu Xi. If you fail, don't come back. End it yourself. Otherwise, you will implicate your family."
Hearing this, the two men in black looked gloomy for a moment, then they both clasped their fists and replied solemnly:
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. This time, I will do my best to complete the mission."
Leng Xi breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hand.
"Stand back. I'll tell you when to start and who the target will be."
Seeing this, the two men in black quickly got up from the ground and ran away.
Through the dim light, one could see a sinister look in Leng Xi's eyes.
He had already learned that Leng Yu was going to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to provide disaster relief in person. As soon as Leng Yu left, he would take action, kill him, and seize the throne. It would be easy.
Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and a smug look appeared on his face.
…
The next morning, Leng Yu sat in front of Lin Dong, looking at the thin man, and asked solemnly:
"If I gave you the position of a provincial governor, would you be able to do it?"
