Chapter 202: Injured (Part 2)
Shen Miao was silent. Her gaze was slightly cloudy and Pei Lang felt something
When the rooster called three times, Gao Yang opened the doors and walked out and saw Shen Miao and Pei Lang sitting at the steps in front of the doors. He could not help but be slightly startled before saying, “You both had sat for the entire night.”
Shen Miao messaged her already numbed need and asked Gao Yang, “How is he?”
“Stable for the time being. The effectiveness of the Gui Yuan Pills are good. Next I will be studying the ways of making the antidote for the poison. No one should bother me.” He then looked at Shen Miao again, “For these days, would trouble you to take care of him.”
Tang Shu who just arrived and heard it, could not help but asked, “If you are unable to get it out in ten days?”
Gao Yang did not speak and the atmosphere became heavy in an instant.
“Go ahead.” In a blanket of silence, Shen Miao spoke. Her voice was very calm, as if the person who was laying on the bed with his life hang by a threat was not her husband.
Gao Yang looked at her seriously, “I also wish it would be successful. If it isn’t I would not be happy in this lifetime.”
He turned around and left.
Tang Shu looked at Shen Miao and then looked at Pei Lang again, “Furen. Gentleman Pei. Both of you have been vigil the entire night and not eat anything. Now that Master’s condition has stabilised, it is better to eat something first and take a rest, else when Master’s injury recovers, both of you will be sick.”
Shen Miao nodded her head, “Bring it to the room. I will rest a while in this room so that it is more convenient to take care. In addition, send people to pass a message to Ji Furen, saying that His Highness condition is temporarily stabilised but have yet woken, thus one need not come over at the meantime.”
Tang Shu nodded his head. Pei Lang looked at Shen Miao and saw that Shen Miao had already walked into the room and sat on the chair in front of the bed and his gaze timed before he turned around and left.
Gu Yu quickly brought a bowl of porridge over and Shen Miao let her leave and closed the doors. There was only Shen Miao, the unconscious Xie Jing Xing and Tie Yi. As she ate, she asked Tie Yi, “What exactly is going on? Can you tell me now?”
Tie Yi was hesitant.
Shen Miao’s hands stopped and she stared sternly at him, “That day you followed him and entered the inner fields so no one knew more clearly than you on what had happened. Even if you only recognise him as your only master, you cannot conceal it from me.”
Tie Yu quickly said, “Furen, it is not so. It is just that this subordinate is not clear about Master’s plan this time. Master had discussed it with the Emperor and Mo Yun Army was not even used. However there seemed to be changes in the middle of it as the Emperor was at death’s door in the inner fields and there was someone who hid in the Imperial Army. Master blocked that attacked for the Emperor and there was poison smeared on the sword. Someone wants the Emperor’s life.”
Shen Miao in that very moment had seemed to be connected all the pearls with a string and a vague guess of an answer appeared in her head. This hunt seemed to be Emperor Yong Le and perhaps the Lu family’s gamble. Emperor Yong Le wanted to use his life to bring down the entire Lu family and the Lu family wanted to make use of this opportunity to deal with Emperor Yong Le and did not expect that Emperor Yong Le had the determination to die.
However Emperor Yong Le’s plan of burning both the jade and stone was not informed to Xie Jing Xing, or could be said that Emperor Yong Le knew that Xie Jing Xing would not agree to it. Thus Xie Jing Xing could only ‘change the plans’ and save Emperor Yong Le’s fate and thus suffer such a serious injury.
Shen Miao silently looked at the youth who was lying on the bed. He was always so proud and stubborn and was good at knowing everything like the back of his palm to scheme that he would lift things up highly and place it down gently, smiling casually at everything. Because he was used to showcase his strengths, it had made everyone forgot that in some situations, he was only an ordinary person and would grow old, sick and die. Once he was injured, he would be in jeopardy and it was possible for him to completely disappear from this world.
Shen Miao’s heart burst in pain as she recalled the sentence of ‘wait for my return’ that Xie Jing Xing said to her before entering the inner fields. Looking at this situation in front, she felt that it was extremely piercing to her eyes.
The effectiveness of the Gui Yuan Pills was not long-lasting. So what could be done if Gao Yang was unable to develop an antidote? Shen Miao frowned as she looked at Xie Jing Xing and her nails gradually dug into her palm.
Matters in front and at the back have to be taken care of. If nothing could be done on matters in front then the main culprit have to experience ten times more pain.
In Wei Yang Palace, Emperor Yong Le fiercely threw the memorandums in his hands onto the ground.
Empress Xian De sighed and bent down to pick the memorandums up.
“Hi Lu family is really courageous enough and his heart is ambitions.” The Monarch’s expression was as deep as water, “At such a time one even trust around in front of Zhen. Zhen could not wait to skin and drink his blood.”
“The Lu family replied of their formidable power and even took the risk. If Jing Xing did not protect with his life…” Empress Xian De did not continue speaking.
Hearing this, a flash of pain appeared in Emperor Yong Le’s eyes, “Zhen would rather it is Zhen that die.”
