Chapter 115 Two Lovers Actually Emerged from the Qin Royal Family
That was Zhu Yurou's sachet.
She had heard that Zhu Yurou was sick before, and she had been hesitant about whether to go see her. Later, she was too busy and put the matter out of her mind.
At this moment, it seems that Zhu Yurou's "illness" has reached a critical point, perhaps even life or death.
Yun Si was very curious.
Who would be so eager to beg her for Zhu Yurou's sake?
It definitely wasn't Zhu Yurou herself. If she could still go out, the situation wouldn't have gotten to the point where they had to beg her.
When Yun Si saw the Prince of Lin, she was somewhat surprised.
But then he thought, if he could take a knife for Zhu Yurou, he could naturally do other things for her too.
"Princess Xiao".
In the alley, Qin Huai stepped down from the carriage, his expression hidden in the dim light, making it impossible to see what was on his face.
He clasped his hands in a fist salute to Yun Si, bowed slightly, and then addressed her again as "sister-in-law."
"Your Highness Prince Lin."
Yun Si returned the greeting, her tone indifferent, and feigned ignorance as she asked, "I wonder what brings Prince Lin to see me?"
She made her stance clear.
Everyone knows who has tried to kill Qin Ye time and time again, so don't try to get close to them.
Qin Huai remained silent for a moment.
As if making up his mind, he suddenly bent his back and knelt down straight down in front of Yun Si.
What are you doing?
Yun Si was startled and quickly took a few steps back: "Get up right now, or I'll leave immediately."
If someone sees this, who knows what kind of rumors will spread.
After all, his current image is still that of a weak and easily bullied prince.
If people were to see Prince Lin, as the elder brother, kneeling before his younger brother's wife, Princess Xiao, not only would the common people gossip, but the memorials from the officials in the court impeaching Qin Ye would pile up like mountains.
"I'm sorry, that's not what I meant."
Qin Huai also realized this, and quickly stood up, his tone revealing a hint of genuine emotion, a mixture of panic and helplessness.
"Sister-in-law, she's dying, please... save her."
It was as if, in endless despair, he had finally grasped at Yun Si as a lifeline, but he dared not exert any force, for fear that if she broke, there would be no hope left.
"Please, for her sake..."
"We have no relationship."
Yun Si interrupted him: "Every time she comes to me, it's for you. So don't try to use our past relationship to blackmail me. Because of you, there's no chance of any relationship between us."
This is a direct, frank, and cold-blooded statement.
Compared to what he did, Yun Si didn't think she had gone too far in any way.
Qin Huai was speechless.
After a long silence, he couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal.
"It was my fault."
He lowered his head, his voice filled with suppressed pain and regret: "She is innocent. It was I who failed to wake up sooner, living only in hatred and ignoring her goodness. But now, she is going to die..."
Yun Si looked at him coldly.
On the surface, she appeared completely unmoved, but in reality, she couldn't help but be touched by him.
Because his appearance reminded her of Qin Ye.
Qin Ye must have felt the same despair when he learned of her death.
"I do have a way to save her, it just depends on whether you're willing to."
"I do!"
Yun Si planned to test him, but to her surprise, he agreed without even thinking.
"Sister-in-law, tell me, whatever the method, even if it means my death or atonement, as long as it can save her life, I'll do it!"
"Are you really willing to die for her?"
"willing."
Qin Huai said excitedly, "I'm willing to give my life for yours, sister-in-law, is there anything you can do?"
Yun Si looked at him, trying to see a trace of falsehood on his face, but she couldn't.
He was filled with anxiety, his only thought being whether there was truly a way to save his queen.
Unexpectedly, the Qin royal family produced two romantics.
Yun Si sighed silently in her heart.
In the end, she followed him to the Prince Lin's residence, deciding to check on Zhu Yurou's condition before making any further plans.
Yun Si got into the carriage, and a little creature scurried in after her, letting out a disgruntled "woof" at her.
Then he jumped onto Yun Si's lap and kept rubbing against her hand.
"So timid."
Yun Si rubbed its round head speechlessly: "Is it my fault?"
The carriage soon arrived at the Prince Lin's residence.
She made a point of observation and realized that tonight, it seemed like no one was following her, or perhaps they had just lost her in the crowd.
That's better.
Entering Zhu Yurou's room, Yun Si's gaze fell on the bed.
Zhu Yurou lay on the bed, her face pale and her breath weak.
Qin Huai rushed over first and grabbed her hand: "Yu Rou, wake up, wake up and come see me!"
The lighting was poor earlier, so Yun Si didn't see him, but now she can see Qin Huai's condition clearly.
He was unshaven and looked so haggard he was unrecognizable.
Sister-in-law, I beg you!
Qin Huai forced himself to suppress his emotions and tried his best to remain calm: "I beg you, as long as you promise to save her, I will do anything you ask. I will apologize to my fourth brother and plead guilty to Father Emperor!"
"I'll ask you one more time."
Yun Si stood still, her gaze fixed on Qin Huai's eyes: "You're willing to trade your life for his?"
"Can!"
Qin Huai didn't hesitate at all: "Tell me, what do you want me to do to exchange my life for yours?"
"Move aside a bit, let me take a look at her first."
Yun Si walked to the bedside, and Qin Huai quickly stepped back.
She looked at Zhu Yurou and noticed that Zhu Yurou's face was pale, but her lips were a dark purple.
"She was poisoned?"
Seeing that Yun Si knew Yu Rou was poisoned after just one glance, Qin Huai's eyes visibly brightened.
He was only testing the waters, unsure if Yun Si really had the ability to save Yu Rou.
But he had no other choice. He had consulted the imperial physician and the most famous doctor in the capital, and everyone gave the same answer.
It's beyond saving.
Tell him to prepare for his funeral.
He didn't believe it, so he went to the palace to ask the imperial physician for help.
When his father found out, although he arranged for the imperial physician to examine him twice, he could sense that his father was very unhappy and dissatisfied with him.
The imperial physician who was sent only gave a perfunctory look and said that even a god could not cure Yu Rou's poison. He told her to accept his loss and not to waste her time.
Why?
Why is God so cruel?
Even the only person who truly cared for him was going to be taken away from him?
Qin Huai was unwilling to give up!
He can't lose Yu Rou!
Even death wouldn't do it.
Otherwise, what would be the point of all he's done?
He thought of Yun Si. According to the investigation, Yun Si had learned medical skills at some point. She had been assassinated last time and was said to have been left with only one breath. She was in a coma for half a month before she inexplicably recovered.
This is by no means a coincidence.
Perhaps, she also has a way to save Yu Rou.
"Just as I expected."
After careful examination, Yun Si came to a conclusion.
The poison that Zhu Yurou was poisoned with was the same one that she transferred to Qin Ye.
"What?"
Qin Huai noticed that she seemed to have discovered something and looked at her anxiously: "Sister-in-law, how is Yu Rou?"
Yun Si ignored him.
She took out the antidote she always carried with her and gave Zhu Yurou one.
The medicine melts instantly in the mouth.
What did you feed her?
"You guys are lucky."
Yun Si turned to look at him, her eyes sharp: "Remember what you said, go and apologize to Qin Ye. As for His Majesty, forget about it. For the sake of your princess's life, try not to be too nice to her in public, especially not in front of His Majesty, and do anything for her."
"Why?"
Qin Huai didn't understand what she meant, but then seemed to realize something, his brows furrowing slightly: "You mean..."
"I didn't mean anything by it."
Yun Si interrupted him: "Her poison will be suppressed for the time being. I am currently researching the antidote. If the research is successful, everything will be resolved. If it fails, we will resort to the method of exchanging one's life for another."
After saying that, she turned to leave.
The Prince of Lin wanted to call her back, but she had already made herself very clear.
Everyone else said it wouldn't work, but she easily suppressed the toxicity with just one pill, which made him feel that it was somewhat unreal, and he wanted to ask her for more details.
"Sister-in-law..."
Just as he opened his mouth to call out, there was a sudden noise outside the door.
