Chapter Ninety-Seven: Threats
"Go and guard the door, and don't let anyone in." After Du Mian'er left, Qin E stood up and instructed the maidservants in the dormitory.
Although the toxins in Chu Feng's body would not spread throughout his body with the flow of blood for the time being, the silver needles could not last long, and she had to find the antidote herbs as soon as possible.
In the dormitory, Chu Feng was lying on the bed, his face was purple, panting heavily, it seemed that he was really not far from returning to the west, he was awake, but he didn't have the slightest strength to let him open his eyes.
Finding a hidden location, Qin E opened the mystery of the phoenix in her body, and before entering, she also brought the teapot in the house by the way, in addition to picking some medicinal herbs, she also brought a full pot of water in the spiritual spring.
This spiritual spring water can make the wound heal quickly, and if it is used to boil medicine, the effect must be excellent, but there is not so much time for her to decoct the medicine, she pulled a few leaves and stuffed them into Chu Feng's mouth, and then poured a sip of spiritual spring water, although this method is simple and rude, but it is also very effective.
Inside the lobby.
Xiao Changxiu straightened up and knelt, he had been kneeling since last night, if these legs were useless, it would be fine, it was still a little conscious, but it was numb at the moment.
In addition to asking for the emperor's forgiveness, he couldn't think of a better way, even if it would make the Xiao Mansion lose the protection of the emperor's grace in the future, he didn't feel a pity, it would be worth it to cure Qin E and save Qin E.
After the emperor changed his clothes, he walked into the hall with the queen.
"Your Majesty, Queen Mother, please bypass my wife." Xiao Changxiu immediately asked.
The connivance of today's Xiao Mansion is no longer as good as in previous years, but he still met the emperor and queen after all, so he still has a chance.
"Humph! What do you think is my son's life? The mourning family watched him vomit blood and be poisoned. The queen said with some despair, even if she barely held on, how long could the poisoned wind last? She didn't even know what to do next.
"Niangniang, my wife's medical skills are shallow, and this time she even got an axe in front of the imperial doctor, but she was just anxious to save the prince, but she didn't want to break into such a disaster." Xiao Changxiu has been kneeling outside the door, where would he know the situation in the house.
But when he heard this, he was also shocked, he thought that Qin E was still imprisoned, but he didn't expect her to take the initiative to treat the prince and poison him.
"That's it? What do you think your Xiao Mansion people are? Can you afford to pay for the prince's life? If she cures my son, I will never scold her, but my son is about to die of poisoning, and you still let me let her go? "Conniving that she is the lord of the six palaces, her status is the queen, and she is just an ordinary mother.
If Chu Feng dies, then she will have no children under her knees.
Xiao Changxiu's face was cold, he pursed his lips tightly and didn't know how to respond, he was also very sorry for the prince's poisoning, but did he want Qin E to take her life to accompany the funeral? The prince was kind-hearted and would not agree to such a cruel practice.
"Your Majesty, this is my father's sword ......" Xiao Changxiu weakly untied the strap tied to his chest, showing Xiao Quan's sword, and he respectfully placed it on the ground.
To experience the pain of losing a child, this is a big blow to Chu Ding, who is already old, but he didn't expect Xiao Changxiu to use such a method to let him go.
As soon as the crown prince died, the situation in the court and China would definitely be turbulent, and he did not like to see these scenes of open and secret fighting.
"Are you really going to trade this sword for her?" Chu Ding asked solemnly, he didn't like flamboyant women, since Qin E took the initiative to ask Ying to treat Feng'er, how could he not afford to lose so much?
Xiao Changxiu nodded, since he had made up his mind, then he would go all the way to the dark.
"A sword can only be exchanged for one life, do you have to think about whether to change her or you, or your mother?"
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Changxiu's face changed, how did he know that there was such a thing, he thought that this sword could withstand this disaster, but he didn't expect that he thought too much.
In a hurry, his brain was really useless, and he wanted to use his sword to force Chu Ding to release people, his gloomy temperament would definitely not allow it, how difficult it was to let him choose among them?
"Your Majesty, my father has done his best for Changping Country...... Xiao Changxiu didn't finish his words before he was interrupted by Chu Ding, "Then what should happen to my son's life?" He's just turned twenty-four this year, should he die? "As a father, can't he feel distressed?
No one likes to sacrifice, and no one is willing to take responsibility, Xiao Changxiu suddenly realized now that he was thinking too much, and he even wanted to negotiate conditions with the emperor? The emperor never spoke of conditions.
If the maidservant girl came to report the news that Chu Feng had been poisoned and died after a while, then I am afraid that he would not even be able to escape, but it was a pity that all his relatives would be compensated, and he would be helpless.
Kneeling on the ground, he looked at the sword in front of him with cold eyes He was so familiar with that he even remembered the promise given by Chu Ding on the day of his father's funeral, and everything disappeared in an instant.
"Your Majesty, please for the sake of the loyalty of the Xiao Mansion for generations, bypass my wife, the minister is willing to exchange his life for my wife's life." His eyes were closed, and he said seriously.
Such affection was something the queen didn't expect, but the more he protected Qin E, the more angry the queen became, the crown princess's stomach has not moved yet, he didn't even have a thought left, and if she thought about it in the future, she would have no way at all.
"No, I will never agree, I will not let that woman go!" The queen roared madly, whoever wants to make her uncomfortable, she will definitely not let that person feel uncomfortable, it's a big deal to fight to the death, although no one wants to see such a scene.
"If the emperor doesn't agree, Changxiu will kneel here." Xiao Changxiu said firmly, Chu Ding has so many sons, but Qin E has only one.
It is not a simple matter for the children in the palace to grow up smoothly, and there have been so many accidents in the past, and I have never seen Chu Ding so sad.
"Are you threatening me? I will not indulge you. Chu Ding flicked his sleeves angrily and strode out of the lobby, he didn't want to stay in this cramped room and endure such cruel news, why did his favorite emperors always leave him one by one? He is now old, and he no longer has the energy of his youth.
The queen was also about to leave, even if Feng'er was poisoned to death, then she would stay by his side to see him off for the last time, her stubborn red eyes widened, not letting anyone see her sadness.
A servant girl staggered in and said anxiously: "Niangniang, the prince's poison has been cured!" ”
