Chapter 288 Vomiting Blood
After everything was arranged, Jiang Xianhao felt very dizzy, so he lay down on the bed early and slowly fell asleep.
Before going to bed, she instructed the two of them.
"Go find Dean Wang and ask him to prepare some medicine that can keep me energetic. There are too many things to do next, and I can't collapse yet."
After saying this, the man fell into a deep sleep and lost consciousness.
The third day.
Emperor Rongcheng came with the antidote and fed it to Jiang Xianhao personally.
Jiang Xianhao opened his mouth to eat, but suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Ah Hao——"
Emperor Rongcheng screamed and immediately rushed forward to support Jiang Xianhao who was about to fall.
"Ah Hao, what's wrong with you?"
"Quick, call the imperial physician!"
Cold Palace.
Emperor Rongcheng rushed in again with a sword in hand.
Concubine Hui was lying on the bed wearing only her inner garment. She screamed in fright and started coughing violently.
"His Majesty!"
Emperor Rongcheng pointed directly at her neck.
"What on earth did you give Ah Hao to eat?"
Upon hearing this, Concubine Hui stepped back in surprise. "Of course it's the antidote. Could something have happened?"
"What antidote? Why did she vomit blood and become unconscious after taking your antidote?"
When Concubine Hui heard the news, she was very proud and immediately acted as if she was surprised.
"Your Majesty, this is a good thing!"
“Snap—”
Emperor Rongcheng slapped her in the face.
"You vicious woman!"
"He really has evil intentions."
Concubine Hui covered her face with her hands, looking innocent.
"Your Majesty, the Empress is vomiting blood to expel the blood clots in her body. This means that most of the poison in her body has been eliminated. This is indeed a good thing!"
Emperor Rongcheng slowly put down the sword in his hand.
"Do you really mean what you say?"
Concubine Hui nodded with tears in her eyes.
"It turns out that Your Majesty has never believed in me."
She said this with a self-deprecating laugh, "I have tried so hard, but when something went wrong with the Empress, His Majesty was the first to blame me."
Emperor Rongcheng didn't care about Concubine Hui's reaction at this time. Upon hearing this, he immediately turned around and headed towards Jingyu Palace again.
In Jingyu Palace.
Dean Wang sighed helplessly.
"This is the new medicine I prescribed for Your Majesty. Although it cannot detoxify Your Majesty, it can make Her Majesty feel more comfortable in the last few days."
Jingtan and Yunshu burst into tears upon hearing this.
"My Queen..."
Emperor Rongcheng came in at this time.
"How is the Queen?"
Dean Wang immediately knelt on the ground, not knowing how to start.
"Empress Hui said that the vomiting of blood was because the poison was halfway resolved and she wanted to spit out the blood."
Dean Wang raised his head, leaned forward, closed his eyes, and sighed.
"Your Majesty, I... am a person of limited talent and knowledge. I have never seen such a situation before, and I have no antidote. I can only prescribe some relief medicine to alleviate your pain."
After Dean Wang finished speaking, Emperor Rongcheng felt dissatisfied.
"Why do I need you? If that's the case, why don't you get out of here?"
Dean Wang has left.
However, he couldn't stop sighing even after he walked out of Jingyu Palace.
Day 4.
Gu Jingchun and Shen Hechuan, who were far away in Jizhou, rode their horses at full speed, traveling day and night.
In just a few days, all of them were exhausted and looked haggard.
In order to increase speed, their carriages were reduced to one, and everyone except Doctor Sheng Quan and Gu Jinxi rode horses.
Because she didn't ride horses often, the skin on the inside of Gu Jingchun's legs was already rubbed raw, but she said nothing and persisted with gritted teeth.
She thought she had hidden it well.
However, her tightly bitten lips and the movements when she dismounted the horse still made Shen Hechuan discover something.
So, when they changed horses and set off again, Chen Hechuan directly picked up Gu Jingchun by the waist and put her on his horse.
Gu Jingchun was startled and screamed reflexively, and immediately put his arms around Chen Hechuan's neck.
"What are you going to do?"
Chen Hechuan raised his eyebrows and jumped onto the horse.
He held Gu Jingchun in his arms face to face.
Let Gu Jingchun hug me and stretch my legs to sit on his legs. This will reduce the friction between my thighs and make me more comfortable.
"You're being stubborn. Your thigh doesn't feel right. Why didn't you tell me?"
Gu Jingchun didn't expect that Shen Hechuan was so observant that he could discover this.
She couldn't help but turn her head and said something in a low voice.
"I don't want it because I'm delayed."
Chen Hechuan looked down at her, squeezed the horse's belly, and let the horse run. Then he said: "Silly, you can't just endure it even if it makes you uncomfortable."
"If I let you get hurt, I'd still feel bad even if we went back earlier."
Gu Jingchun nodded, and then he heard Shen Hechuan sigh, his tone full of guilt.
"I'm the one who implicated you. If it weren't for me, you and Jinxi wouldn't have to travel all the way in fear.
Perhaps you are right, and your previous concerns were also correct."
Upon hearing this, Gu Jingchun raised his eyebrows and chuckled.
"In that case, then I...will leave?"
After he finished speaking, Shen Hechuan held her arm, and instantly tightened it, as if he was afraid that Gu Jingchun would run away.
"no."
Chen Hechuan lowered his eyes and glanced at Gu Jingchun, with a seriousness in his eyes that he had never seen before.
"Jingchun."
"I've never been a generous person, nor a selfless person."
"No matter what, I can't let you go, and I can't bear to watch you go to someone else."
"Whether you call me selfish or strong-willed, I accept it.
I am such a person. Even if you don't love me or are unwilling, I will not let you go. Even if I have to tie you up, I will tie you to my side."
Upon hearing this, Gu Jingchun rolled his eyes and was about to speak up to teach this dark-hearted man a lesson.
At this time, Tianji hurried over and said loudly:
"Your Highness, it's bad. The Queen is in a bad condition. The news just came in that she vomited blood."
Hearing this, Shen Hechuan frowned, and his face instantly became anxious.
Gu Jingchun immediately looked at Lan Xin behind him.
Lan Xin had just received the news, and when she saw Gu Jingchun's eyes, she immediately drove her horse forward.
"Miss, news just came from Tiandu that some items in the business are out of stock recently. Also, Yong'an Hou has been acting out of character lately, often going out, often not at home for several days at a time, and his whereabouts are strange."
Gu Jingchun frowned immediately.
"Send someone to follow him immediately and see where he goes every day."
"Also, find a way to check the expenses of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion."
After arranging everything, Gu Jingchun and Shen Hechuan looked at each other and saw the seriousness of the matter in each other's eyes.
"If I'm not mistaken, something big might be happening in Tiandu."
Gu Jingchun nodded.
"We must not be careless on the journey ahead. If things are really as I suspect, then the other party will definitely not let us go back."
