Just as Han Yunxi was concentrating, Han Congan's voice suddenly came from outside the door. He was pleading with Emperor Tianhui, and his voice wasn't soft.
Dammit!
Gu Beiyue silently cursed, but didn't dare to open the door to stop him. He was afraid that the people outside would rush inside and affect Han Yunxi even more.
Outside the room, Han Congan had been looking forward to the post-treatment examination, but the more he thought about it, the more unsettled he felt. He couldn't just sit and wait for death. What if Han Yunxi really bribed Gu Beiyue to play some sort of trick? Then wouldn't he be finished?
No matter what, he wouldn't allow it even if there was the slightest possibility.
He had to go inside and watch Han Yunxi's every move with his own eyes.
"Your Majesty, let this commoner go in and take a look as well! After all, this commoner has served His Highness Crown Prince for so many years. I understand his body's condition better than Imperial Physician Gu. "
Emperor Tianhui looked at him Coldly, hesitating.
"Your Majesty, let this commoner go in. For better or for worse, I'll be able to take care of him and see clearly how Qin Wangfei treats him. That way, it'll be safer than a post-treatment examination, won't it?"
Han Congan's words were clear enough. Emperor Tianhui was still suspicious of Han Yunxi, but he nodded at these words. "You can go in."
Han Congan rejoiced. "Thank you, Your Majesty. This commoner will definitely see clearly."
Delighted, Han Congan's voice grew louder. Gu Beiyue heard him clearly, but Han Yunxi didn't move at all. It wasn't clear whether she heard him or not.
Seeing Han Congan walk over, Gu Beiyue's heart burned with impatience. He was stuck in a dilemma and didn't know what to do.
If he let Han Congan knock on the door, he could refuse. Or he could go out and stop him. Both options would greatly affect Han Yunxi!
Gu Beiyue's usually calm brows furrowed tightly. At this time, Han Yunxi also heard the commotion outside, but her ability to resist interference was not bad, so she directly ignored it.
However, no one could guarantee that when Han Congan knocked on the door later, Han Yunxi would still be able to control her attention.
At the critical moment, Han Congan was already at the door.
Gu Beiyue decided to throw caution to the wind. He pressed one hand on the door and prepared to open it. Han Yunxi seemed to notice his action and instantly became distracted. She immediately tried her best to regain her senses. Beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on her forehead, and her back was already drenched.
However, he couldn't concentrate. If this continued, he would make a mistake, and it would be a big mistake!
What to do?
Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, a cold voice rang out. "Your Majesty, didn't you just promise her that no one will disturb her?"
This voice belonged to … Qin Wang!
The Duke of Qin was the Duke of Qin. Han Congan abruptly stopped at his words.
Hearing this, Gu Beiyue's heart finally settled back into his chest. His hand on the door dropped as well, while Han Yunxi exhaled in relief.
Just like when she'd saved the young general, her hand had trembled as she held the needle. But as soon as she heard his voice, her heart calmed down and she felt like the entire world was safe.
She narrowed her eyes and immediately entered a state of mind, forgetting everything around her.
It wasn't clear what Long Fei Ye had done outside, but even Gu Beiyue didn't hear a sound from the door after his words.
Outside, Han Congan's mouth was gagged. Long Fei Ye was sitting on the steps by the door. Although he sat very low, his entire body emanated an air of nobility that was hard to ignore. His every movement carried an air of confidence and ease.
Emperor Tianhui didn't say much because of the promise, but a complicated look flitted past his eyes. He'd been trying to figure out Long Fei Ye's attitude towards this official consort all this time.
He was someone who didn't care about matters that didn't concern him. Was this for the sake of the crown prince's safety, or to prevent Han Yunxi from committing a crime?
Inside the room, it was still silent.
Time slowed as they waited. Gradually, they heard the rumbling sounds of Long Tianmo's stomach, the sound of the poison dissolving the fetus in the womb's bones.
This voice grew louder and louder. Then, it gradually became softer and softer until it gradually disappeared. As the voice disappeared, the atmosphere in the room also became extremely tense.
Suddenly, Han Yunxi's eyes lit up as she said in a low voice, "Prepare the Life Blood Pill!"
Success!
Gu Beiyue broke into a smile and immediately prepared the Life Blood Pill to coordinate with Han Yunxi to give Long Tianmo.
Han Yunxi waited a bit longer until she heard the beep of the scanning system. Her taut nerves immediately relaxed.
Time was up!
After warming up her hands, Han Yunxi immediately began to use the knife. Her movements were practiced, nimble, and very beautiful.
The sharp edge of the knife left a two-cun gash on Long Tianmo's stomach. At first, bright red blood flowed out, but as Han Yunxi began to insert needles, the blood turned black.
Han Yunxi searched for acupoints while observing the amount of blood. Soon enough, the entire bed was dyed red.
Her head was bowed the entire time, her expression focused and professional. Although this was her best skill, she never let her guard down. "Imperial Physician Gu, use the medicine!"
Gu Beiyue cooperated very well. The Life Blood Pill was truly a miraculous item. Long Tianmo's deathly pale complexion gradually turned rosy.
Han Yunxi raised her eyes to look at him before taking his pulse. Satisfied, she continued to search for acupoints.
Although the process was very long, the danger had been reduced to its lowest point.
Finally, half an hour later, all the toxins in Long Tianmo's body had been completely removed. There was no need for any follow-up medicine.
Han Yunxi used some anti-inflammatory and raw flesh adhesives before carefully bandaging the gash. Finally, she carefully tidied up Long Tianmo's clothes. Finally, it was all done.
Han Yunxi turned her head and exhaled a long breath of turbid air. Her mind relaxed, but what followed was exhaustion. The tiredness accumulated over the past few days, as well as the exhaustion caused by the two hours earlier, all exploded.
However, she still persevered. She took his pulse and checked his complexion. After confirming that there were no mistakes, she sat down at the side and said indifferently, "Imperial Physician Gu, open the door."
Gu Beiyue's eyes held a trace of heartache, but he didn't open the door immediately. Instead, he poured a cup of warm water for Han Yunxi to drink, then took out a few pieces of ginseng from his case and said softly, "Put them in your mouth. Rest a bit first, there's no rush."
Han Yunxi took the ginseng and put it in her mouth. She knew that it was worth a fortune. If it wasn't a thousand years old, it was at least 500 years old. A small piece was worth a thousand gold, but he'd given her three large pieces at once.
Perhaps she was hallucinating from her exhaustion, but when she looked at Gu Beiyue, she only felt that he was surrounded by a faint golden aura that made him seem like a gentle angel.
Seeing that Han Yunxi's face was better, Gu Beiyue went to open the door.
Emperor Tianhui and the rest were all waiting anxiously in the courtyard. As soon as the door opened, the empress was the first to rush over. "How is the crown prince?"
Gu Beiyue smiled as he replied, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, and Esteemed Empress. The treatment was very successful. His Highness Crown Prince is fine now! "
"Really?" Emperor Tianhui shot up from his seat, nearly losing his balance and falling down. The movement completely exposed his nervousness.
The empress dowager stood up as well, overjoyed at the turn of events. "Really? Really? "
"The treatment went very smoothly. The malignant tumor in His Highness's abdomen has already been dissolved. All of the poison has been expelled!" Gu Beiyue replied honestly.
"Quick … quick, go in and take a look!"
The empress was so happy that she was the first to walk inside. Seeing her so anxious, Gu Beiyue quickly coaxed her. "Esteemed Empress, slow down. Be careful not to fall."
"I can't slow down. It's been so many years. I've dreamed of this day even in my dreams! I just knew that Tianmo would be fine! "
"Emperor, I already said that Han Congan must have misdiagnosed him. How could Tianmo have contracted such a strange illness?" the empress dowager said in pleasant surprise.
The two women were so happy that they forgot their status. They spoke as they rushed inside. Emperor Tianhui couldn't care less as he strode into the room.
Only Han Congan was left gaping as he fell to the ground. Perhaps he was too shocked, but his mouth hung open so wide that the rag he'd used to gag it fell out of his mouth.
The only one who remained calm was Long Fei Ye. He glanced at Gu Beiyue, who was still standing by the door, before turning to leave.
Inside the room, the pungent smell of blood permeated the air. It smelled like rotten sewage. Han Yunxi's things were more or less cleaned up, leaving behind only the medicine pot and the bloodstained bedsheets.
Long Tianmo lay quietly on the bed. His swollen abdomen had mostly disappeared, leaving behind only a ring of flab due to his loose skin. It couldn't be seen with the white gauze wrapped around it.
It had to be said that the smell of blood in the room was very unpleasant, but everyone was so happy that they couldn't care less about it.
She was his mother, after all, so the empress ignored the bloodstained bed and sat down on it. She touched her son's face and was so moved that she was choked with sobs. "Is he really cured? Really? "
The empress dowager stared at his stomach in disbelief. "Good, good, good. That's too good."
It was Emperor Tianhui who took care of his status and remained calm. "Han Yunxi, does this count as the crown prince recovering?"
"To reply Your Majesty, it's as Imperial Physician Gu said. The poison tumor in the crown prince's stomach has already been removed and expelled. Once the anesthetic wears off, the crown prince will wake up. I left behind three types of medicine that he can change every night. His wounds should be completely healed," Han Yunxi replied seriously.
"Then how long will it take for him to wake up?" Emperor Tianhui asked next.
Now the empress dowager and empress were both looking over from their joy. Han Yunxi naturally knew what Emperor Tianhui meant. She couldn't leave until the crown prince woke up.
"About two hours," she replied honestly.
"Qin Wangfei, you should stay in the side chamber and rest first to avoid any more trouble," Emperor Tianhui said mildly. He wasn't asking for Han Yunxi's opinion, but ordering her around.
Still, he didn't call her by her full name. The fact that he called her 'Qin Wangfei' showed that his attitude towards her had changed.
Han Yunxi really wanted to rest. She gave Gu Beiyue a meaningful look and was about to leave with the court lady when Han Congan's voice carried in from outside. "Qin Wangfei, hold on!"
Soon enough, Han Congan entered the room, his goatee slightly raised. His face was solemn as he bowed with hands clasped in front. "Your Majesty, as this commoner sees it, it's still too early to make a conclusion about His Highness Crown Prince's illness."
Actually, His Highness Crown Prince's stomach was already gone. As long as he could wake up, there was no need to find out what was in his stomach now!
Even if it really was a child, Emperor Tianhui would never allow news of it to spread!
However, for Han Congan, the appraisal was necessary. It was related to his reputation and even more so, his life.
Of course, Emperor Tianhui wanted to know the truth without any outsiders around.
Emperor Tianhui waved a hand, indicating for the court lady to withdraw first.
