Chapter 68: Finding An Zhilian
"Grandma, didn't I wake up?" Zhao Lingshu held Mrs. Zhao's hand, distressed and moved, "You are also older, you should have a good rest." ”
"If something happened to you, how can grandma sleep?" Mrs. Zhao said and rolled down her tears again.
"Grandma, how's the hunt now?" Zhao Lingshu asked curiously.
"The hunting race, it's long gone." Mrs. Zhao said.
"Stopped?" Zhao Lingshu was shocked, this hunting competition is a big event of the royal year, how can you stop it?
In a tent on the hunting ground, Emperor Wen Liang was pacing anxiously in the tent.
Now there have been many emergencies in this year's hunting competition, An Zhilian was seriously injured, Zhao Lingshu was poisoned, and the guards who followed Zhao Lingshu were killed. The sum of these events has already made the nobles of the family participating in the hunting competition panic.
Emperor Liang Wen was nervous and thought about countermeasures. After a while, Emperor Liang Wendi lifted the curtain, walked to the main field of the hunting ground, and sat on the dragon chair.
When the nobles of the family who had gathered together to talk about the unexpected situation of the hunting competition saw Emperor Wen Liang coming, they instantly stopped talking and knelt down to salute.
"What happened today is the first time in the history of the hunting tournament that it has been in so long history. The concubine of the Duke of Wei Guo and the concubine of the county lord of Anling were seriously injured, and the guards were killed, I will definitely investigate to the end and give a satisfactory explanation to the Duke of Wei and the lord of Anling. Emperor Wen of Liang paused, and then said: "Qisheng, Qiyun, Qiming." ”
"The son is here." The three of them hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down.
"I order you to investigate this matter together, and you must investigate it thoroughly." Emperor Wen of Liang ordered.
"Yes, the son will live up to his father's trust." The three of them said in unison.
"Let's go back to the palace." Emperor Wen Liang stood up as he spoke, boarded the car with the queen, and went back to the palace.
"Congratulations to the emperor and queen!" The eunuch said in a sharp voice.
"Your Highness, Miss Zhao fainted after being poisoned." As early as when Zhao Yechen hurriedly sent Zhao Lingshu back to his home, Xiao Si, who inquired about the news, reported Zhao Lingshu's situation to Xiao Qisheng.
"Fainted?" When Xiao Qisheng heard this, his heart immediately became anxious, but Emperor Liang Wendi hadn't left yet, so he couldn't go to see her.
"Xiao Si, you go to the Zhao Mansion to guard, and report to me immediately if there is anything." Xiao Qisheng commanded.
"Yes, Your Highness." Xiao Si said and left quickly.
Xiao Si reported back and forth to Xiao Qisheng several times, and the last time Xiao Si reported, he said, "Your Highness, Miss Zhao is awake." ”
"Finally awake!" Xiao Qisheng finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but he was still silent on the surface.
That night, Xiao Qisheng took advantage of the night and sneaked into Zhao's mansion.
Xiao Qisheng entered the Lingshu Pavilion with ease, gently pushed open the door of Zhao Lingshu's room, sat on the edge of her bed, and looked at her quietly.
Although he had woken up, Zhao Lingshu's face was still pale, and his full lips were bloodless. Xiao Qisheng looked at it, full of distress.
Zhao Lingshu, who was originally sleeping lightly, heard movement in the room and immediately woke up. She opened her eyes and saw a dark shadow in the room rushing to her bedside, thinking it was a thief, and was about to shout loudly, but at the last moment, she saw Xiao Qisheng's face clearly.
"Is that you? What are you doing here? Seeing that it was Xiao Qisheng, Zhao Lingshu relieved his heart, but he was very surprised.
"I heard that you were poisoned, so I came to see you." Xiao Qisheng said, helping Zhao Lingshu to sit up from the bed.
"What if I get caught? Then all the things we have joined together will be revealed. Zhao Lingshu asked Xiao Qisheng worriedly.
"No, there are too few people in this world who can follow me and not be discovered by me." Xiao Qisheng said, and took out a bottle of medicine: "This is the antidote medicine I bought at a high price, which can remove all the toxins in your body." ”
Zhao Lingshu took the medicine given by Xiao Qisheng, this usually indifferent and cynical person is so good at caring about people?
"Poisoning requires rest. These days, you have a good rest, don't think about anything else, and don't worry about it. Xiao Qisheng said with concern, the voices of maids and attendants passed by outside the house, and Xiao Qisheng said again: "It's inconvenient for me to stay for a long time, you can take care of your injuries, and I will come to see you again when I have the opportunity." ”
"Okay, Your Highness Xie cares." Zhao Lingshu bowed slightly to show his gratitude.
Xiao Qisheng took advantage of the fact that the maids and guards were far away and there was no one outside the house, so he quickly climbed out of the window and left the Zhao Mansion.
Zhao Lingshu looked at the back of Xiao Qisheng leaving, holding the medicine he gave in his hand outside the quilt, the porcelain bottle was cold, but her heart was indeed moved and warm.
In the mansion of the lord of Anling County.
"Doctor, how is my son?" The county lord of Anling anxiously asked the imperial doctor who had just diagnosed An Zhilian's pulse.
"Shizi was already seriously injured when he fought with the wolves, and although the toxins in his body were removed, they were not completely cleaned up, and the toxins had penetrated into his blood, so he was unconscious." The Imperial Physician replied respectfully.
The county lord of Anling looked at An Zhilian, who had been unconscious on the hospital bed for several days, and tears of worry came out of his eyes.
On the day of the hunting competition, An Zhilian went out of the house intact, but in the end he was sent back in a coma and full of scars. Besides, An Zhilian has not woken up yet, not to mention the anxiety in the heart of the county lord of Anling.
When Xiao Qisheng went to visit An Zhilian, An Zhihuan had not woken up yet. There was silence up and down the house, and people came and went, and no one dared to make a sound.
Xiao Qisheng was taken to An Zhilian's room by a maid, and the county lord of Anling was sitting at the head of An Zhilian's bed, patiently feeding him a spoonful of soup with a spoonful of spoonful. But An Zhilian, who was unconscious, couldn't swallow on his own, and only a spoonful of decoction was put into his mouth a little, and the rest was sprinkled on the bedding. The maid hurriedly took a handkerchief to wipe it.
Xiao Qisheng looked at An Zhilian, who was unconscious, and he didn't feel good in his heart.
"The Sixth Highness has come down." When the county lord of Anling put down the soup bowl, he saw Xiao Qisheng, who had been standing next to him, and hurriedly got up and saluted.
"The county lord doesn't have to be polite. Is An Shizi better? Xiao Qisheng asked with concern.
"I haven't woken up yet. The doctor said he didn't know when he would wake up. Today he has been talking nonsense, creating evil, who the hell hurt my son? The county lord of Anling broke down again as he spoke, and the maid hurriedly came over and took the county lord of Anling to the room to rest.
Xiao Qisheng walked to An Zhilian's bedside and looked at him quietly.
"Miss Zhao, Miss Zhao." An Zhilian suddenly shouted.
"Miss Zhao? Could it be Zhao Lingshu? How did the two of them meet? Xiao Qisheng realized that An Zhilian knew Zhao Lingshu, and he was very puzzled.
"Zhizhuo, Zhizhuo, wake up." Xiao Qisheng gently pushed An Zhilian's body and called his name.
"Your Highness?" An Zhihuan finally woke up, and called Xiao Qisheng in a weak voice.
"Are you awake?" Xiao Qisheng was overjoyed, and hurriedly shouted outside the house: "The prince is awake, call the imperial doctor to come and see!" ”
Hearing Xiao Qisheng's words, the maid, the county lord of Anling, and the imperial doctor all rushed in.
The doctor immediately pulled An Zhilian's hand to diagnose the pulse, and after a while, the imperial doctor said: "The son of the world is fine, and the next important thing is to take medicine and recuperate, and don't overwork." Then the doctor went to the table and wrote down the prescription on the paper that had been prepared.
"Now that the son has woken up, the villain will leave first." After the imperial physician finished writing the prescription, he resigned to the county lord of Anling.
"I'll send it sir." Seeing this, the county lord of Anling hurriedly said and walked out of the room with the maid.
"Your Highness." An Zhilian struggled to get up, wanting to say something to Xiao Qisheng, but was held down by Xiao Qisheng.
"The most important thing for you now is to lie down and recuperate, as for what happened on the hunting grounds, when you are better, I will tell me in detail. Rest well, I still have something to do, and I'll come to see you tomorrow. Xiao Qisheng said, and left An Zhilian's room.
At the gate of the county lord's mansion, the county lord of Anling was expressing his gratitude to the imperial doctor, Xiao Qisheng walked over, bid farewell to the county lord of Anling, and then stepped on the horse and left the county lord's mansion.
Xiao Qiyun heard that Zhao Lingshu was poisoned and unconscious in elementary school, so he planned to visit her. Before going, he took the best medicinal materials and elixirs in the palace and Cui Guifei's bedroom, intending to completely conquer Zhao Lingshu and make her promise to marry her.
Xiao Qiyun came to the Weiguo Mansion in person. After entering the mansion, he asked the attendants to bring in all the medicines brought in by the carriage and piled them up in the living room of the Zhao Mansion, with so many things that the maids in the mansion had no way to get their feet.
"Fifth Highness, this is?" Mrs. Zhao walked out of the room and saw Xiao Qiyun's big formation, she couldn't help but be shocked and angry, but it was not easy to have a seizure, and she had to talk with a smiling face.
"I heard that Miss Zhao was poisoned and unconscious, these are all excellent medicinal materials, and I am free of illness and disaster, it is a waste to put it in my place, it is better to give it to Miss Zhao, so that it can be worth the money." Xiao Qiyun said proudly, looking forward to the gratitude of the Zhao family, especially Zhao Lingshu.
"Then thank you, Your Highness." Mrs. Zhao just expressed her gratitude without being salty.
"Can I take this highness down to see the corpse? Her Highness has something to ask her. Although Xiao Qiyun asked, his tone was very tough.
"Please come with me, Your Highness." Mrs. Zhao couldn't refuse, so she could only lead Xiao Qiyun to the Lingshu Pavilion.
Xiao Qiyun came to Zhao Lingshu's room, Zhao Lingshu was leaning on the bedside with his clothes draped and looking at a medical book. Seeing Xiao Qiyun coming, he hurriedly lifted the quilt to get out of bed and salute.
"No need to salute. Since you're injured, you should have a good rest, and it's Your Highness who disturbed you. Xiao Qiyun hurriedly stepped forward and pressed Zhao Lingshu, who was about to get up, and said with concern.
"Your Highness has come to look for the corpse this time, but what is the matter?" Of course, Zhao Lingshu didn't believe that Xiao Qiyun came to see him, and his heart was full of vigilance.
"My father asked me to investigate what happened in this hunting ground with my third brother and sixth brother." Xiao Qiyun didn't beat around the bush and said the purpose bluntly.
"I knew it. Then since Xiao Qisheng is also going to investigate the case, why didn't he come to ask me when he came to me yesterday? Zhao Lingshu's heart warmed up, it seems that Xiao Qisheng came to see her yesterday completely for the purpose of caring about her, which is much better than Xiao Qiyun who brought a bunch of medicinal herbs to disturb people's purity.
"Corpse, what happened on the day of the hunting race? Why did you get poisoned when you were so good? Why was An Shizi injured so badly? Xiao Qiyun went straight to the point.
Zhao Lingshu knew that they were going to investigate the ins and outs of the whole matter, so he simply explained the situation: "When my brother and I were hunting that day, we found an attendant who was chased by a tiger. ”
