The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince! Chapter 1499: 1494: This Miss is So Lucky
Chapter 1499: Chapter 1494: This Miss is So Lucky
Chu Yihan suppressed his pain for many days, and at this mont, with his inner strength depleted, his body weakened, a sudden onset of headache proved to be fatal for him.
He gently held Su Yingxue’s arm, saw her wound begin to bleed again, and his eyes filled with unbearable guilt and self-reproach, “I have hurt you again.”
“It’s okay, hubby, I’ll help you up.”
Su Yingxue gritted her teeth, assisted him, and returned him to lie down on the dragon throne.
With Little Ginseng protecting her body, these flesh wounds were no serious matter to her, but Chu Yihan’s unbearable headache was sothing she still couldn’t treat.
She diagnosed that there must be an abnormal growth in Chu Yihan’s brain causing this, she had used dicine and the Soul Capturing Acupuncture Technique, but all were only temporary solutions. Once the effects wore off, his headaches would still attack, even more severe, causing his body to beco even more worn out.
“Imperial Aunt, how is imperial uncle doing?”
With particular warmth, Chu Jinling’s concerned voice sounded.
Su Yingxue had Sun Wu open the door and invite Chu Jinling in, and after kneeling in greeting, he ca to the bedside of Chu Yihan.
His fair and handso face, due to days of hard work, looked sowhat pale, but his eyes were still full of concern for Chu Yihan, “Imperial uncle…”
Chu Yihan, holding his forehead, asked in a low voice, “Is there any disturbance in the court?”
“There have been no major disturbances, only that I haven’t found any traces of the people from the Lan family; that Lan concubine, she ran quite fast.”
Chu Jinling, speaking and feeling the anger, recalled how that person nad Rong Qing attempted to assassinate him, and imperial uncle had already made arrangents to let him escape the calamity, from which he then knew of Chu Yihan’s affectionate heart toward him.
But after he returned safely, the palace didn’t settle down for two days when imperial uncle started to suffer from severe headaches, a symptom not even Su Yingxue could cure, only relieve.
After understanding the situation, he imdiately led people to capture the Lan concubine, but she fled so fast that even when he and General Su Hao searched the city for days, they found no clues at all.
“She had preditated, naturally she won’t be easy to catch; wait at the Lan family’s ancestral tomb for a few more days, if she still doesn’t appear… dig out all of the Lan family and flog their corpses for Her Majesty!”
Su Yingxue said in anger, but it was a helpless asure.
Lan concubine is completely cold-hearted and brutal!
Chu Yihan intentionally wanted to promote the Lan family, to let them revive and wanted to use her dicine, give her credit, but she ended up poisoning Chu Yihan!
Saying so, Su Yingxue’s eyes reddened.
She bowed her head against Chu Yihan’s forehead, “If it wasn’t for being preoccupied with Miaoyan at that ti and neglecting your headache, you wouldn’t have been hard like this.”
Her dical skills were simply wasted!
She, a genius doctor, could not even cure her own husband.
“It was my negligence,” Chu Yihan extended his hand, gently stroking Su Yingxue’s hair.
He instructed Chu Jinling, “The royal court cannot be chaotic, I am unable to attend the court these days, you must assist Heng’er, assign soone else the task of searching for the Lan concubine, and let Su Hao personally stay by Heng’er’s side, warning Zhuo Junli and Lu Mian not to cause trouble, and keep the royal court secure for !”
“Nephew obeys! Imperial uncle, you must recover quickly.”
With a heavy heart, Chu Jinling looked after Chu Yihan and then promptly headed towards the imperial study. Chu Heng still sat on the dragon throne, his small hands struggling to flip through the morials.
“Let Ninth Brother help you flip through them.”
Chu Jinling stepped forward to help Chu Heng flip through the morials and read them aloud for him.
In the imperial study, besides Lu Mian and Zhuo Junli, there were a few ministers. Seeing the three-year-old Chu Heng sitting on the dragon throne and needing Chu Jinling’s help to read the morials, they shook their heads, walked out of the imperial study, and discussed, “The emperor is clearly in the pri of his life, yet he is bedridden, pushing the young Crown Prince onto the dragon throne. How could this be appropriate?”
“Alas, we must fulfill our own duties, otherwise, there will be chaos in the court!”
After the two of them, Lu Mian and Zhuo Junli also exchanged glances with bland expressions and left.
Although both of them wished nothing more than to kill each other, their emperor was now ill, and the imperial power was unstable. Neither of them would raise personal grievances anymore; in the face of national issues, personal grudges are extrely trivial!
This point was well understood by both Lu Mian and Zhuo Junli, and they still exchanged morials.
Lu Mian had written a morial with strategies to stabilize the hearts of the court officials, which was sent to the Pri Minister’s Estate. Just then, Leng Muling was coming out for a walk.
Although her leg was crippled, she did not indulge in self-pity by staying in her room all the ti, following the Doctor’s advice to often go for walks.
She happened to see a servant receiving the morial, surreptitiously hiding it. She stepped forward with her cane, furiously demanding, “How bold! How dare you clandestinely hide sothing, hand it over now!”
The servant panicked and tried to run but was caught by Leng Muling and her people, and after a good beating, they searched the morial from him.
“Miss, here.” The maid Leng Qiu handed the searched morial to Leng Muling.
Leng Muling opened it and saw that it was a morial written by Lord Lu Mian to her uncle. If it had been stolen, wouldn’t that be disastrous?
Leng Muling imdiately ordered, “Tie this servant up in the woodshed, do not allow him to bite his own tongue to commit suicide. I’m going to see my uncle!”
Leng Qiu supported her, noticing her rush and quickly advised, “Miss, don’t hurry, this maid can deliver the morial too. Miss’s leg has not fully recovered, if it gets worse, then later…”
“Doctor Rong has said, my leg will never fully recover. Even without a cane, it would still be sowhat limp. It’s all the sa.”
But this morial, she couldn’t trust anyone else with it; she had to personally deliver it to her uncle’s hands.
When Leng Muling delivered the morial, Zhuo Junli raised his eyebrows, “Not bad.”
Leng Muling smiled, “It seems that the security at ho is still lax. There are people in the court who see that Lord Lu and my uncle do not get along, always looking for opportunities to drive a wedge between you.”
Zhuo Junli sat down to read Lu Mian’s morial and laughed, “There’s no need for others to drive a wedge between us, we haven’t gotten along for ten years. If it wasn’t for the emperor’s critical illness now, I’d fight with him just the sa.”
He would settle the account with Lu Mian sooner or later for all the suffering his Leng family endured, and Leng Muling’s crippled leg!
But that would have to wait until the court situation stabilized.
Zhuo Junli held Lu Mian’s morial, crossed out so ideas he thought were impractical, then wrote down his own suggestions on the side, not to seek Lu Mian’s opinion but rather to command him directly like issuing orders.
When the morial returned to Lu Mian’s hands, seeing his own words crossed out, he felt displeased imdiately.
But then he heard from his subordinate, “This morial was hidden by a servant from the Pri Minister’s Estate. If not for the Second Young Miss of the Leng family, it would almost have been lost. She caught the person and tied him up, personally delivering the morial to Lord Zhuo.”
Lu Mian slightly raised his eyebrows, “Second Young Miss? Leng Muling?”
He and Zhuo Junli were as thoroughly familiar with each other’s family matters as if they knew the back of their own hands, strictly adhering to the principle of knowing one’s enemy. Yet, his idea about Leng Muling remained rely at having arranged for a carriage to crash into her, intending to kill her and strike a blow to the Leng family.
Yet, fortunately, this Miss only broke a leg.
