After the failed attempt to pretend to be dead, the sickly child was favored by the treacherous mini

Xie Nanxing glanced at Han Zhou from the side, and in the dim candlelight, Xie Nanxing saw a tear quickly fly across Han Zhou's eyes and finally disappear into the depths of his clothes.

At this moment, Xie Nanxing's heart was filled with complicated emotions.

After disappearing for so many years, his reappearance can make so many people fall to their knees.

Zhong Yuanyuan's influence on all the civil and military officials in the court broke the limits of Xie Nanxing's imagination of Zhong Yuanyuan.

Xia Qi, a common countryman, was able to become the king who ended the chaotic times and founded the Great Xia Dynasty. The role played by Zhong Yuanyuan in this process must be comparable to that of Xia Qi.

Only a woman like this can raise children like Xia Xin and Xia Che, who, despite being in desperate situations, remain rational and live on, waiting for the truth and justice.

Only a queen with such achievements could, after more than a decade, still make so many old people in the palace prostrate themselves sincerely when they heard the three words "Zhong Yuanyuan".

But why didn't Zhong Yuanyuan, who was so intimidating, come out to take charge of the situation when the incident happened?

Xie Nanxing looked at the situation in front of him and thought about the wooden door, but he was not sure about the answer in his heart.

At that time, Zhong Yuanyuan should not have been able to break free from Xia Hong's siege.

Doctor Shu finished acupuncture and said to Zhong Yuanyuan:

"My lord, the poison that the Ninth Prince was poisoned with is 'exhausting blood'. Anyone who is poisoned will vomit all the blood and die if they do not receive effective treatment within half an hour."

"I have helped the Ninth Prince stop vomiting blood, and will now return to the institute to develop an antidote."

Doctor Shu did not leave immediately after saying this, because he was Xia Hong's man now, and it was up to Xia Hong to decide whether the antidote he developed could be fed into Xia Yu's mouth.

"How long will it take to develop the antidote?"

Doctor Shu estimated the current amount of medicinal materials and said, "About ten days."

Zhong Yuanyuan thought quietly for a moment: "Can Yu'er move now?"

Doctor Shu understood that Zhong Yuanyuan's question was due to his concern about the safety of the Imperial Hospital, and immediately replied, "I will now arrange for someone to carry the Ninth Prince back to the palace on a soft couch."

Before Zhong Yuanyuan could finish her words of agreement, she saw Zhong Luoyue coming towards her with many servants.

In such a situation, Zhong Luoyue rashly showed up at the Imperial Hospital just to vent her anger, which was tantamount to dragging herself into this turmoil.

Some people have not made any progress even after more than ten years.

"The Empress is here."

"Your Highness the Queen."

Everyone in the room bowed to Zhong Luoyue, and Zhong Yuanyuan stood opposite Zhong Luoyue.

The graceful beauty made of gold and jade suddenly became worried after seeing Xia Yu's sick face: "Imperial Physician, how is Xiaojiu? Is it serious?"

Doctor Shu stood up from the ground and glanced at Zhong Yuanyuan: "He has been poisoned. If the antidote is developed a little slower, it may be difficult for him to wake up."

Zhong Luoyue's face became more anxious, and she continued to ask, "Do you have any idea that you will succeed in developing this antidote?"

Doctor Shu naturally understood Zhong Luoyue's hostility towards Zhong Yuanyuan, so he could only speak with a pinch of confidence: "This poison is tricky. Although I have seen it in the Poison Manual, this is the first time I have used it to cure it."

There was no intention to let Doctor Shu leave to work on the antidote. Instead, Zhong Luoyue reached out to Xia Yu with her armored hand and asked in a worried tone:

"Imperial Doctor Shu is used to treating the emperor. The emperor is worried about Xiaojiu before he even leaves the court. He really dotes on Xiaojiu."

Zhong Yuanyuan locked Zhong Luoyue's wrist with one hand, and forcibly moved away this pair of hands that were still as white as cream despite their age:

"Queen, if you touch some people, you will have to bear some sins."

For Zhong Yuanyuan, there has never been any such thing as a mother's status being elevated by her children. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, she is the support of all her children.

But Zhong Luoyue is the apparent master of the harem, and Zhong Yuanyuan does not want to drag these innocent palace servants into this dilemma.

Without any intention of using the soft couch in the Imperial Hospital, Zhong Yuanyuan bent down and carried the half-grown boy Xia Yu directly on her shoulders.

Xia Yu, who was carried on Xun Zhan's back, had been well taken care of over the years, so the weight was not light. Zhong Yuanyuan's waist was slightly bent by the pressure.

Xie Nanxing looked at the gloomy weather outside and immediately borrowed an umbrella to chase after him: "My lady, how about I carry you on my back?"

"You're not as healthy as I am."

Zhong Yuanyuan turned to look at Xie Nanxing, her expression still without a trace of grievance or resentment.

She was calm, like a giant tree rooted in thousands of meters of land, as if no one could make an exception for her.

The lightning and thunder illuminated the road a little, the summer wind blew the three people's clothes into flying, and heavy rain poured down on their heads in an instant.

Xie Nanxing quickly opened the umbrella and covered Xia Yu tightly.

Without exception, Xie Nanxing and Zhong Yuanyuan were immediately soaked by the rain.

Neither of them thought about stopping to hide from the rain. Every step they took forward against the storm was difficult but determined.

Han Zhou tried his best to break the intimidation of Zhong Luoyue, and walked towards Xie Nanxing with an umbrella in one hand and a lantern in the other.

With only an umbrella in his hand, Han Zhou held the umbrella over Zhong Yuanyuan's head without hesitation.

Xia Hong, who was attending the morning court in the Golden Palace, heard that Xia Yu was poisoned, and rushed to the Imperial Hospital in a hurry.

People were running fast in the rainstorm, with the imperial chariot covered by a canopy following behind them. In this rainstorm, everyone in the palace could see the different values ​​of Xia Yu and Xia Hong.

Because Xia Hong had never shown himself in any awkward position for anyone in the palace.

From a long distance, Xia Hong saw the lantern held up by Han Zhou and saw clearly how miserable Zhong Yuanyuan was in the wind and rain.

My heart seemed to be suffering from the pain of being pierced by thousands of arrows.

People who stay where they are lose the courage to move forward.

Xia Hong suddenly felt that even in protecting Zhong Yuanyuan, he could not do as well as Xia Qi.

In all the years that he could remember, Xia Qi had never made Zhong Yuanyuan so embarrassed.

Even a long, long time ago, when they lived in that small farmyard, there was no such thing.

His inferiority complex was shattered by the thunder. Xia Hong tore off his cloak, took Xia Yu from Zhong Yuanyuan's back, and put Xia Yu on the imperial chariot.

Eunuch Lin hurriedly put cloaks on Zhong Zhong and Yuan Yuan, and all the eunuchs stood in the wind and rain holding umbrellas, blocking out the sudden storm that had been brewing for a long time.

The current situation made Xie Nanxing and Han Zhou stop all steps, because of what happened later, they lost the qualification to enter.

No one knew what Zhong Yuanyuan and Xia Hong said, but the team that was originally heading towards the Golden Palace temporarily changed direction and headed towards Xianyun Palace.

Eunuch Lin didn't even have time to open his umbrella and trotted all the way to the Imperial Hospital.

When passing by Xie Nanxing and Han Zhou, he stopped urgently and said, "Send Prince Han and Master Xie back to the palace to study. They are not allowed to contact anyone during the journey."

After Banban finished his instructions, Eunuch Lin whispered to the eunuch beside him, "Master Xie is weak, find him a set of dry clothes and send him in."

The first word is a rule, and the second word is a favor done for Shen Jinmo's sake.

Xie Nanxing had to accept this favor: "Thank you, Eunuch Lin, please go and do your work. We will definitely not cause any trouble for you."
