Chapter 105: Wake up
Ruan Tang is still rational in the end, if Ling Qing does not develop a medicine to suppress Gu worms now, but instead gives Chu Mu a poison to poison him.
The consequences can be imagined.
The Empress Dowager was afraid that Ling Qing would immediately be split into five horses for the crime of murdering the heirs of the royal family.
And a few of them, including Tana, as well as Xiaofeng, Qingfeng, and Chunhan in prison, may not be spared.
It's a bit costly.
She can't let others die in vain because she is alone.
It's just that she regretted this trip.
If she knew that this would be the result, she would simply wait for death in the Jing'an Hou Mansion.
But now it's too late, and she doesn't seem to be able to.
Ruan Tang shook his head, "I'm kidding, you continue to develop your medicine." â
But Ling Qing saw that Ruan Tang was in a low mood, and thought of the Empress Dowager leaving her to speak just now.
"Did the Empress Dowager tell you something?"
Ruan Tang still shook his head, "It's okay, just chatter and say something inconsequential." â
But how could Ling Qing believe it, although he usually focused on studying his things, but he had been by Ruan Tang's side for so many years, whether she was happy or not, whether she had something on her mind or not, he could tell at a glance.
"Master, but the Empress Dowager asked you to stay with King Ning?"
King Ning had been arresting their master before, just to let her stay in the palace.
And holding them in prison is also to use them to contain her.
But they all know that their masters have never liked to be detained, and they yearn for a free and easy life.
If he is detained in this palace, I am afraid that his master will not be able to stand it.
As the incomparably noble prince of a country, King Ning must have three wives and four concubines, and countless backhouses, asking her master to compete for favor with countless women, where can she stand this kind of life?
Ruan Tang didn't make a sound, found a chair and sat down, leaned back on the back of the chair, tilted his head, and looked loveless.
Tana on the side didn't know why, she only knew that this King Ning died, and her sister seemed to be buried with her, but it was entirely because her sister was also on that boat.
But now why does this empress dowager want her sister to stay with King Ning, is it to let her sister be the princess of this King Ning?
"Sister, does the Empress Dowager want you to marry His Royal Highness King Ning and become a princess?"
Tana said as she sat down on a chair beside Ruan Tang.
"Sister, if King Ning can be saved, it's good to be a princess, so you're not afraid of others bullying you?"
Tana has been with Ruan Tang for the past few days, but she also learned some of her current situation from Ruan Tang.
She also thought about staying in Shangjing, helping her sister clean up those 'jackals, tigers and leopards', and letting her sister dissolve the marriage contract with that Shen Qianyi, and then take her back to the northwest.
But if Ruan Tang becomes the princess, then many problems will be solved.
That Shen Qianyi, a cadre from the Marquis of Jing'an, etc., don't they all have to salute respectfully when they see her? Who would dare to embarrass her?
"Sister, this is a good thing, why do you have a sad face?"
"It's just that I don't know what the character of this King Ning is? Can it be a good match? If it's a good one, it's a good thing for my sister. â
Ruan Tang and Tana said a lot about her, but about King Ning, she didn't say it.
Yes, Tana didn't know what kind of person King Ning was and what he had done to her?
If she knew, with her character, I am afraid she would be the first to object.
Ruan Tang raised his hand and touched her head, Tana is only fifteen this year, she is still a child, and she doesn't understand these things at all.
No matter how good King Ning is, he will not be a good husband.
It should be said that the men of the royal family are not good choices.
But now she has no choice.
Here, power is everything, and it can determine everything about you, not only marriage, but also life.
Perhaps Tana has a point.
The biggest advantage of marrying Chu Mu is that she can have absolutely high power, which is a good thing for her, right?
Ling Qing didn't sleep endlessly, and after a day and a night of tinkering in the pharmacy, he finally developed the medicine.
"You don't have to find a guinea pig or something to experiment with? Is it okay to give it to him directly? Ruan Tang took the medicine Ling Qing gave her and asked.
Although the drugs developed by Ling Qing in the past did not have mouse tests, most of them were directly used by them, whether they had any effect or not, they used and ate them, and Ling Qing knew that if he wanted to improve, he also knew how to change them.
But the person who is taking the medicine now is King Ning, and he is still giving it to him under the nose of the Queen Mother.
Isn't this risking killing his head to test the pill for him?
Ling Qing shook his head, "No need, even if it doesn't work, he is just maintaining the status quo, even if he dies, it is a relationship between Gu poison and poison, and it has nothing to do with my medicine." â
So confident?
The corners of Ruan Tang's mouth twitched, but she knew Ling Qing's personality, he said that if she didn't need it, she wouldn't use it, if she was long-winded, it was estimated that he would directly destroy the medicine.
Ling Qing's temperament is actually quite gentle, but only when it comes to testing medicine, no one can ignore him.
When several people came to Canglang Garden with medicine, the Empress Dowager was already waiting at the door of the bedroom.
She looks much better today than before, and she should have deliberately dressed up.
After all, her own son may wake up, and she can't lose her image in front of her son, and she may also be afraid that her son will be upset when he sees her haggard appearance.
I have to say that the Queen Mother is a good mother, the kind of good mother she imagined.
Ruan Tang and the others saluted the Empress Dowager before they entered the bedroom together.
The Empress Dowager personally fed Chu Mu with medicine.
Then Ling Qing stayed by the bedside, taking a pulse every half an hour.
After waiting for nearly an hour, Ling Qing got up and pulled out a smile at Ruan Tang: "Master, it's done, the Gu worm is dormant, Your Highness will rest for a day, and you will wake up at night or tomorrow morning." â
When the Empress Dowager heard this, a long-lost smile finally appeared on her face.
On the second day, Chu Mu really woke up.
The most excited was the Queen Mother, she couldn't hold back, and pounced on him and cried for a while.
Ruan Tang stood aside, a little embarrassed, and was about to exit the inner room and leave the space for the two of them.
But he didn't want to, Chu Mu's black eyes passed through the shoulders of the Empress Dowager and looked at her.
When he saw that she was safe and sound, a light smile appeared on his lips.
Ruan Tang saw him smiling at himself, a little uncomfortable, and also pulled out a stiff smile at him, and then quietly withdrew.
Ling Qing and Tana were both waiting outside the bedroom, and Ling Qing could only wait for the Empress Dowager to give her order before she could go in and give King Ning a pulse.
However, not long after Ruan Tang came out, the Empress Dowager also came out.
She let Ling Qing in.
Not long after, Ling Qing also came out, but asked Ruan Tang to go in.
"Master, His Royal Highness King Ning will let you in."
Ruan Tang's face stiffened, and he looked at the Empress Dowager a little awkwardly.
The Empress Dowager just smiled and nodded at her, "Go, he just woke up, presumably about the ship, he has something to ask you." â
Ruan Tang couldn't shirk it, so he had to go in slowly.
As soon as she arrived in the inner room, she saw Chu Mu sitting on the bed and did not continue to lie down.
When he saw her come in, he beckoned to her.
Ruan Tang walked slowly to the bed, and a few steps away from the bed, he stopped.
Chu Mu watched her movements, his sword eyebrows furrowed, "Come here." â
Xu had slept for too long, and he was injured and poisoned, his voice was very weak, and he was a little hoarse after illness.
Ruan Tang didn't do so, and still stood still in place.
"Your Highness, if there is anything you can ask, I can hear it from standing here."
But as soon as her words fell, Chu Mu's deep eyes stared at her for a moment, and the displeasure could already be seen on his face.
After a long while, he sighed helplessly, then lifted the quilt covering his body and tried to get out of bed.
It was only when he put one foot down on the bed, clutched his chest, and stopped.
Ruan Tangxiu's eyebrows tightened, and he had no choice but to step forward, help him back on the bed, and then cover him with the quilt.
But in the next second, the man took her into his arms.
Ruan Tang subconsciously resisted, but immediately heard his muffled snort.
She had to stop struggling.
"The wound is not healed yet, can you not toss around, wait for your mother to blame me again."
Chu Mu rested his chin on her shoulder and gently hugged her.
"It's nice to see you again."
That night, dozens of black-clothed people suddenly rushed on the boat, killing people when they saw them, and the dance scene was chaotic, and it was also in the chaos that he was shot with an arrow.
What he didn't expect was that the arrow was smeared with poison, and he forced himself to kill many people in black before he fell.
The remaining men in black took the opportunity to set fire to the ship.
He knew that Ruan Tang was painting on the second floor, and when he thought that she might be killed by those men in black, or burned by fire, he felt a fierce throbbing in his heart.
At that moment, he hated himself and failed to save her.
But when he was dying, he saw her running towards him.
At that moment, his heart was beating violently, and his body seemed to give birth to infinite strength at that moment.
He raised his hand and used the sleeve arrow in his hand to shoot a few arrows at the man in black who was chasing her, and when he was sure that there was no man in black chasing her, his strength was suddenly all unloaded.
His eyelids were heavy, and he wanted to look up at her to see if she was hurt, but he couldn't even do it in the end.
The moment before he fell unconscious, he could feel her dragging him as he struggled away from the scorching fire.
He knew she was dragging hard.
He wanted to laugh at her, and ask her where she had eaten so much and where her strength had gone.
But he knew he didn't have a chance.
He didn't expect that he would be able to wake up again, see her again, and hug her again.
"Ruan Tang, thank you."
His voice was very soft, like a feather, brushing Ruan Tang's ears and her heart, and she felt something strange.
The word 'thank you', she heard it from Chu Mu's lips for the first time.
She was stunned for a moment before she opened her mouth and asked, "Thank me for what?" â
"Naturally, thank you for saving me."
"I know you dragged me along." His hands tightened a little.
Did you know that I also threw you in the water and left first?
Ruan Tang had no choice but to ask this sentence in his heart, not daring to ask it out of his mouth.
But fortunately, Chu Mu didn't seem to remember this, only that she dragged him away.
She also breathed a sigh of relief.
It's just that she just let go of this breath and lifted it up again.
"The queen mother said that you agreed to marry me."
"Nope!" Ruan Tang hurriedly denied it.
When did she agree, it was your mother's own initiative and force, okay?
"Little gummy, you can't lie to this king, you saved this king, you want to marry this king, this king can understand, and he won't blame you, let alone disobey the queen's will."
