Emperor Xuanren was originally young and strong, sitting on the throne, and he naturally did not want to die as long as he could continue to live. He was also very happy to hear Xiaocao's words, "This time, little girl, you have made a great contribution. When I get better, I will definitely reward you handsomely."
"It is my duty as a minister, I dare not take credit for it."
"Okay, don't say that. I know what's going on."
His sons and ministers were already thinking that he should die early. They were forming cliques and pursuing personal interests. If something really happened to him, even if he made a will before his death, there would still be no peace on the river. The good situation he had built up for more than ten years might be destroyed in a short time.
Therefore, it was not only his life that was saved in time...
Emperor Xuanren was self-reliant. He always distinguished rewards and punishments clearly, and would not allow others to interfere in what he wanted to do.
When Xiaocao came out, the people led by the Queen Mother immediately rushed over, "What's the situation?"
Xiao Cao was more relaxed. "Don't worry, Queen Mother. The Emperor is out of danger. If you take good care of him, he will recover soon."
"Really? That's great, that's great, Amitabha." The Queen Mother almost cried with joy.
Princess Fukang and Fan Wuguo beside them couldn't help but smile. At this point, everything they had done before was worth it.
Several ministers in the cabinet also followed suit and spoke compliments one after another, and whether they were sincere or false, they all looked happy.
The Queen Mother pulled Xiaocao and said, "You have made great contributions this time, and you must be rewarded." She turned around and said, "Of course, we are innocent and we made a prompt decision to pick them up, so we can get back in time."
The little bully was a little embarrassed at this moment, and even smiled a little silly, "No, when I met Sister... Miss Wenren, they were halfway through their trip, so there was actually nothing for me to do."
Someone immediately thought that if this was true, then the news might have been received as soon as the emperor was seriously ill. How could this be done thousands of miles away? So, is there something unknown in the meantime? !
While he was thinking, Emperor Xuanren was carefully carried out by his servants, and the Empress Dowager and others immediately rushed over.
Emperor Xuanren opened his eyes and said, "I am sorry to have made my mother worried."
The Queen Mother really couldn't hold back her tears this time, "I'm glad my son is okay, I'm glad he's okay."
After settling down, Emperor Xuanren glanced at the ministers standing respectfully. Although he was out of danger, it was still too early for him to recover. He was in poor spirits, but fortunately he was in a relaxed mood. "Go do what you need to do."
"Your Highness obeys your order." No one dared to say much at this time, but they all knew in their hearts that after the emperor recovered, the court would be severely cleaned up.
The people who had been waiting outside, when they heard the news that Emperor Xuanren was out of danger, knelt down hurriedly, shouting "Long live the Emperor!" and then words like "May you be blessed with great fortune" came out of their mouths without any repetition.
Some are sincere, and some probably want to salvage something.
After receiving Emperor Xuanren's order to "get out", several ministers of the cabinet came out one after another. Seeing that the emperor was indeed out of danger, they felt that the dust had settled. At this time, even those who behaved uprightly could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. As for those who had a guilty conscience or had done "ghostly things", it was hard to say whether they would be so scared that they could not sleep or eat.
The crowd dispersed in groups of three or five, and some of them inevitably walked a little faster.
"Do you think some people are disappointed?"
In the absence of prior arrangements, when Emperor Xuanren passed away, Prince Heng had the greatest chance of winning. This is a well-known fact. To be honest, in the current situation, the princes, especially those who are relatively younger, are really happy. It is absolutely different for the father to be the emperor and for the brother to be the emperor. The former, even if he is not favored, will not be bullied. The latter is uncertain. If you are not careful, you may even lose your life.
But anyone who can say such words at this time is just a fool.
The people around him unconsciously moved away from Prince Dun. No matter what, it was brainless to say such words at this time.
As these people left the palace, the entire upper class circle also knew about it. When the will was being drafted, the fourth Miss Wenren, who was away, rushed back and pulled the emperor back from the brink of death.
Unsurprisingly, this time, Xiaocao's status as a miracle doctor was truly established. Although in serious comparison, Emperor Xuanren's condition was not as serious as Mu Bei and Xu Tongdan's at the beginning, however, Emperor Xuanren's status was different. His life and death would determine the fate of too many people. Anyone who knew about it would probably pay attention to it.
In comparison, Mu Bei and Xu Tongdan are simply insignificant. More people are concerned about Mu Bei's situation, but very few people really know the details. As for Xu Tongdan, no one in the Xu family knows what she has been through. Even if they know that the Imperial Hospital is helpless in their situation through surgery, it still feels much weaker.
The feeling they had about Emperor Xuanren's condition was deeply engraved in their bones. They had originally thought they would have to observe a national mourning period, but at the last moment, a reversal occurred because of Wen Renxuan. How could they not remember her? Naturally, they no longer had any doubts about her medical skills.
Wenrenjia, everyone in the mansion was extremely happy, because that was because the emperor had been saved. For their family, it was like having an extra golden ticket to immunity from death. As long as they did not commit rebellion, they would at least enjoy decades of honor and favor. Any new emperor would have to give them some face. Although it was still only the residence of a third-rank official, the threshold had been raised so much.
Let alone the marriages of the young masters and young ladies behind Wen Renya, they can all choose better families.
Even the fourth room's mistress, Mrs. Ge, who had always been weird, had a beaming look on her face.
The happiest person was Wen Renying. She almost jumped up when she heard the news. Although Emperor Xuanren had passed away a few days ago in her previous life, she still felt heavy in her heart. Now that her fourth sister was back and Emperor Xuanren was out of danger, her fate had truly changed. There would be no more unrest afterwards. How could she not be happy
Although, before, many things had been changed because of her fourth sister, but none of them was as significant as this one. This was not just changing one thing, but changing history!
Even though Wen Renying was an old fan, she couldn't stop shouting "Fourth sister is so awesome, so awesome, so awesome" at this moment. She really became a little fangirl, "Dad, dad, tell us more about what happened at that time."
Wenren Taibo was helpless, "Didn't I tell you that? Come on, it's getting late, go back and rest early."
The younger generation left reluctantly, leaving only Wenren Taibo and Han.
In comparison, Han was more worried about Xiaocao's condition. "Thousands of miles, driving day and night, this body must be unable to bear it. I don't know if it's now..."
Of course, they didn't know the dangers Xiaocao would encounter along the way, otherwise, they wouldn't just be a little worried.
"Don't worry, Jiao Niang. Now that the emperor is out of danger, the others must be eager to worship her. Even if there is some loss on the way, it will be replenished soon. However, it will take some time for the emperor to recover, so I'm afraid he won't come home for a while. And as for Tingyu, I see that only our Xuan'er has returned first. He may not be able to come back for a while, and I don't know what his condition is like."
Speaking of which, Wei Tingyu has already found the medicine and has written back, but he is still on the way, so they don’t know the good news yet. I think the person who came back with Xiaocao will definitely tell them soon.
Compared to the joy of the Wen family, after returning to the palace, Prince Heng smashed the entire study room like an angry beast. He really wanted to cut Xiaocao into pieces. He was almost there, just a little bit, but that bitch ruined his plan! Not only did she rush back quickly, but all the people who went to kill her were killed, and she was not hurt at all. Damn it, damn it, damn it—
In addition to this overwhelming anger and unwillingness, Prince Heng also had an uncontrollable fear in his heart. Although he thought he had done it very secretly and no one would know, he was still worried that if it was discovered, being stripped of his title, demoted to a commoner, and imprisoned for life might be the lightest punishment. If his father got angry, he might even chop off his head.
The more this happened, the deeper my hatred for Xiaocao became. If it weren’t for her, if it weren’t for her…
After learning about the situation from her servants, Concubine Kou fell down on the bed, not caring about her abdominal pain. Her eyes were a little dull. She failed at the last moment, which was naturally hard for her to accept.
Prince Heng can't be the emperor, so what's the point of all her calculations? Since she came to the Qi Dynasty and knew the background, she tried every means to get close to Prince Heng, just waiting for the day when Emperor Xuanren died, but he didn't die now. If he didn't die this time, who knows how many more years he will live. Could it be that she should continue to wait like this, and waste time, and in the end it might be all in vain
She had long had doubts about Xiaocao's origins, but apart from the words she said when Zhen Muyao and Jianshu got married that were inconsistent with the current situation, there seemed to be no other difference - if Concubine Kou had seen some of Xiaocao's scenes of saving people, she probably wouldn't think so - so suspicion was just suspicion, and now, the suspicion has deepened, and she still can't make a conclusion, because Concubine Kou is not sure whether it was because of her own reasons that caused the butterfly effect. Maybe there was a person like Wen Renxuan in history, but for some reason she failed to save Emperor Xuanren, or maybe she never even returned to the Wen family, and was unknown, so naturally there is no such thing as leaving a name in other places in history.
Prince Heng is also a waste. He claims to be the most powerful among the princes, but in the end he can't even stop a weak woman. His so-called power is simply a joke. It's no wonder that the Qi Dynasty began to decline after Emperor Xuanren and was destroyed within a hundred years.
The result of her wild thoughts was that Concubine Kou was almost going neurotic.
The fact was just as Wenren Taibo said, Xiaocao would not leave the palace and go home so soon. After prescribing the detoxifying medicine for Fan Wuguo, he was directly arranged in the side hall of Emperor Xuanren's bedroom. Everything he needed was prepared properly, and the palace servants served him attentively and considerately, not daring to make the slightest mistake.
Because of the need to take a bath, Xiaocao's injury on the inside of her thigh could no longer be concealed.
Seeing that the maid was overreacting, Xiao Cao waved her hand and said, "It's okay. I'll just apply some medicine on it later."
But this makes it inconvenient when taking a bath, as you can’t just soak in it.
Since they were people in Emperor Xuanren's palace, they must be good at serving people, and Xiaocao enjoyed it.
During the journey, Princess Fukang came over. Fan Wuguo was also exhausted, so he went back with the Queen Mother to rest. The Queen Mother had not been eating well or sleeping well these days, and she was old and in poor spirits. Now that she was relaxed, she was a little exhausted.
Princess Fukang was distressed when she saw Xiaocao's condition, but she didn't say a word before, and there was no clue in her actions. She was already very grateful to Xiaocao, and now she treated Xiaocao as her own daughter. Emperor Xuanren was not only the guarantee and support for her worry-free life, but also the person she respected and cared about the most. Since she was a child, her brother had always protected her. Even when her mother pushed her away, her brother was the only one who remained consistent. He was not only a brother, but also played the role of a father. It can be said that being a son and a brother was Princess Fukang's life.
The medicine for the wound was ready. After getting it, Princess Fukangchang applied it to her personally.
Xiao Cao refused quickly, but Princess Fukang smiled and said, "When I was little, I often fought with others. This kid didn't know how to control his strength. After I came back, I applied medicine to him. So, don't worry, it won't hurt you. I guess these palace maids have never done this before. Don't tell me you came by yourself. You must be tired. Lie down, sleep for a while, apply the medicine, eat something, and then go back to sleep."
Xiaocao did not argue with her anymore. Instead, she wanted to wait for Princess Fukang to finish applying the medicine. However, her eyelids became uncontrollable and gradually closed, and she fell into a deep sleep.
After applying the medicine, Princess Fukang called Xiaocao twice, but she didn't wake up. "It seems that she is really tired." Turning back, "You guys stay alert and take good care of her. If she wakes up, let her eat something. If she doesn't wake up, let her sleep and use it tomorrow."
"only."
That night, nothing happened to Emperor Xuanren, so Xiaocao slept soundly.
When I woke up in the morning, my body was still aching, but I felt refreshed.
He went to check on Emperor Xuanren first. As he couldn't eat for the past two days and he had eaten very little before, Emperor Xuanren was obviously thinner, but in good spirits. Because the analgesics were directly injected intravenously, even the pain after the operation was still easier than before. After greeting Xiaocao, he waved to her.
Everything that needed to be explained had been explained last night. When facing the patient, Xiaocao still couldn't help but say a few words.
Emperor Xuanren laughed. This little girl really seemed to understand him. After learning that Xiaocao hadn't eaten yet, he let her eat first and talk about the rest later.
