Chapter 347 Ghost Doctor
They quickly quickened their pace and just as they reached the front of the tent, a man in black with a broken arm was kicked out from inside and fell heavily to the ground. Then Yao Jia followed out, supporting the unconscious Xiao Fengyi.
"Your Highness has inhaled a large amount of drugs. Hurry! Call the imperial physician!" Yao Jia shouted to the palace servants.
The drug in Xiao Fengyi's tent had not yet dissipated, and the palace servants suggested transferring the person to the tent of the accompanying imperial physician.
Yao Jia wanted to hand Xiao Fengyi over to the palace servant, but she found that he was holding her sleeve tightly with one hand.
I pulled hard several times, but he didn't let go.
She patted the back of his hand gently and said in a soothing voice: "Don't worry, Your Highness. There is no danger anymore."
But Xiao Fengyi still had no reaction.
With no other choice, I had to follow him.
Because Doctor Xu had a close relationship with An He, the palace servants brought the two of them directly into his tent.
After entering, I found that there was no one in the tent.
"Go look for someone from Princess Anhe's place," Yao Jia ordered.
The palace maid took the order and went forward immediately.
Just after Xiao Fengyi was settled, Xu Yanlou hurried back, followed by An He, who had disheveled hair and a look of passion on her face.
Yao Jia looked at the two of them with a meaningful smile.
Xu Yanlou blushed immediately, coughed lightly, and walked over to take Xiao Fengyi's pulse.
An He was thick-skinned. He raised his eyebrows at her proudly, then lowered his head and looked at Xiao Fengyi nervously.
After taking the pulse, Xu Yanlou stood up and said to An He with a serious expression, "Your Highness Prince Rui has been poisoned quite badly, but fortunately the poison has not penetrated deep into his internal organs. However, this drug is a little special, and I need to study it carefully before I can make an antidote."
Yao Jia was surprised. She had never expected that the drug contained poison.
When An He heard Xu Yanlou say this, he couldn't help but worry about Yao Jia.
"Yanlou, quickly check Yaoyao's pulse as well."
Yao Jia smiled and declined, "I have an anti-poison Gu on my body, so these poisons can't harm me."
An He didn't take it seriously and insisted on letting Xu Yanlou see him before he felt at ease.
Yao Jia's sleeve was pulled by Xiao Fengyi, and she was in a stalemate. She had no choice but to sit obediently at the head of the bed and let Xu Yanlou take her pulse.
During this process, Gu Xiyan, Bai Huahua and Huaichuan also hurried over.
They all stared at Xu Yanlou with nervous expressions, afraid of hearing some bad news from him.
Xu Yanlou carefully checked Yao Jia's pulse, frowned for a moment, then loosened his hand, his expression slightly eased, and said to everyone: "Pavilion Master Nangong is indeed fine."
Several people breathed a sigh of relief.
Bai Huahua stepped forward and looked Yao Jia up and down carefully, only to find that her sleeve was grasped by the unconscious Xiao Fengyi.
There was a look of displeasure on his face.
Gu Xiyan saw it as soon as he came in, but he was only worried about Yao Jia at that time and didn't care. Now that he knew Yao Jia was fine, jealousy rose in his heart unconsciously.
Just like Bai Huahua, a pair of eyes stared at the hand that was tightly grasping the sleeve without blinking, as if they wished that flames would fly out of their eyes to burn the hand off.
Yao Jia also realized this problem, so she decided to go all out and took off her outer layer of clothes in front of everyone.
Bai Huahua immediately took off her outer robe and put it on Yao Jia, complaining, "This royal enclosure is heavily guarded, how could an assassin break in for no reason?"
Yao Jia shook her head, "The assassin was not from outside, but Xu En, the chief eunuch beside Concubine De."
Hearing this, An He stood up from beside Xu Yanlou who was pounding medicine, and said solemnly, "It must have been Third Brother's instructions. He must have felt that what happened today was because my mother whispered in Father's ear in order to win favor, and he was resentful, so he sent someone to assassinate my brother. I will report to Father right away and let him make the decision for my brother."
An He was about to rush out, but was stopped by Yao Jia.
"Don't make trouble." Yao Jia said seriously, "There are witnesses and evidence. His Majesty will make the decision. He may summon me to question her soon. The Queen cannot move around freely. You just stay here and guard your brother. This will also ease her mind."
An He stopped dead in his tracks, but eventually nodded and sat down. "You're right. I can't act impulsively. I have to consider the overall situation."
But a pair of eyes were always fixed on the door of the tent.
Huaichuan felt that it was inappropriate for Yaojia to meet the emperor in a flowery white robe, so he simply went back and got her some clothes to change into.
Not long after, Wei Yu conveyed the emperor's oral order, asking Yao Jia to go over for questioning, and An He also stood up.
"I heard that my father was not feeling well today, and I am really worried. Can I go and see him?"
Wei Wei looked at her meaningfully, nodded, and reminded her: "When you go there, Princess, no matter what you see or hear, you must stay calm."
An He smiled knowingly, "Don't worry, Eunuch Wei, I won't."
Wei Wei nodded slightly and looked at Gu Xiyan, "General Gu, I heard that Lord Gu and his wife know many people in the martial arts world. Have you heard of this ghost doctor?"
Yao Jia's eyes moved slightly. It seemed that Jiang Sirong had already taken action. She nodded to Gu Xiyan.
Gu Xiyan smiled and said, "Of course, the ghost doctor and my mother have a close relationship. This general even met him several times when he was a child."
Wei Yu's eyes lit up instantly, "In that case, General Gu, please go with me to see His Majesty."
The nights in March are still somewhat long.
The emperor closed his eyes slightly, pointed at the middle-aged man in black kneeling beside Concubine De, and said in a deep voice: "He is your man, but was he ordered by you to assassinate Yi'er?"
Concubine De glanced coldly at the man with half an arm missing, her eyes full of hatred. She looked at Ming Huang on the high platform and said sadly, "Your Majesty, I was following Marquis Qi back to the palace. If I hadn't been caught up by the people you sent, I would have been hanging on the white silk that Your Majesty gave me."
On the way back, she thought the emperor had fallen in love with her, but she didn't expect that this nosy waste would assassinate Xiao Fengyi privately.
As if realizing something, Concubine De hurriedly glanced at Xiao Fengli and wailed in her heart: A little impatience will ruin a big plan. Ali was really stupid this time.
She cried to the emperor, "I was confused for a moment, but Your Majesty, we have been married for many years. Why do you want to sentence me to death just because of a dream and a few jokes between me and the eunuchs?"
Xiao Fengli realized that Concubine De was taking the blame for the assassination of Xiao Fengyi on him, and he felt sad and fell to the ground begging.
"Father... I beg you to show some mercy and revoke your order."
The emperor was unmoved. He looked at Concubine De lying on the ground, closed his eyes, and said with disgust: "Put away your disgusting face. When I think of your original appearance, I feel sick and want to vomit. You should have been left to rot by the lake. You harmed A'yan and Chen'er, and now you are going to harm Yi'er. You deserve to be killed!"
De Fei's face turned pale as paper in an instant, and she looked at the emperor in shock, "So you... you really remembered who I am."
The emperor's eyebrows twisted into a river, "I would rather not think of you, you disgusting thing!"
"Don't you dare say that about Xiang'er!"
The man with the broken arm, who had been silent all this time, suddenly roared, widened his eyes, and stared at the emperor fiercely.
"Xiang'er is the most beautiful woman in the world. She loves you more than anyone else. It's you who has let her down!"
The emperor sneered, his voice full of sarcasm: "Love? If she really loved me, she wouldn't use the 'Love Gu' to control me, and she wouldn't plot for the throne behind my back. Her so-called love is just an excuse for her ambition."
The man with the broken arm was extremely angry. He stood up and rushed towards the emperor, but was subdued by Gu Xiyan who happened to arrive.
"Uncle Que, I haven't seen you for many years. How did you get into the palace and become a eunuch?"
Gu Xiyan raised his hand and tapped Que Huaiying's broken arm a few times to stop the bleeding.
Que Huaiying dodged his gaze and said, "General Gu, you have mistaken me. I am just a servant beside the Empress Defei..."
Gu Xiyan chuckled and pointed to his ear, "Uncle Que, have you forgotten? My hearing is very good at distinguishing people's voices and tones."
She smiled faintly, but her eyes revealed an unquestionable sharpness: "Uncle Que, do you think you can deceive me by putting on this eunuch's clothes? Your figure, eyes, and your unique martial arts background are all unmistakable. I remember when I was a child, you taught me a few self-defense moves. Yaoyao just told me your martial arts clearly."
When the emperor heard this, his eyes glanced back and forth between Gu Xiyan and Que Huaiying, and his expression became increasingly gloomy.
"Gu Aiqing, who is this person?"
Gu Xiyan bowed respectfully and replied, "Your Majesty, this person is the famous ghost doctor in the martial arts world who can transform a person's appearance—Que Huaiying."
As soon as he finished speaking, his hand reached out to Que Huaiying's face.
Que Huaiying still wanted to resist, but now his arm was broken and he was no different from a disabled person. Gu Xiyan took off the human skin mask on his face with just one move.
The handsome face of a middle-aged man appeared in front of everyone. It was the ghost doctor Que Huaiying who had been missing for many years.
