"If you have nothing else, please leave and don't disturb Wanwan's rest."

Xiahou Xuan said coldly while looking at the palace concubines, and then immediately turned his gaze to Jiang Wange who was still in a coma.

The palace concubines bid farewell to Xiahou Xuan and left, but the empress dowager and Concubine Shu still stood there, refusing to leave.

"Your Majesty, your action just now was really risky. Not to mention that Concubine Xi is pregnant with the heir to the throne, even if she is pregnant with a prince, you cannot condescend to let her suck out the snake venom. How can she be worthy of this!"

The Queen Mother's mind was still filled with the image of Xiahou Xuan sucking Jiang Wange's poisonous blood despite any obstruction, and she felt a surge of fear.

But after the fear, he was shocked that Xiahou Xuan would go to such lengths for Jiang Wange. It was unbelievable!

"I said she deserves it, so she deserves it. If the Queen Mother has nothing else to do, she should go back to Ci'an Palace as soon as possible. This will be the end of the New Year's Eve for this year. I will stay here with Wanwan until she wakes up!"

"you!"

"Queen Dowager, let's go back first. Your Majesty must be worried about Concubine Xi's injury and has no time to care about other things. Please understand your Majesty's feelings."

When the Empress Dowager was about to curse, Concubine Shu stopped her in time and dragged her away.

Xiahou Xuan couldn't help but glance at Concubine Shu, then retracted his gaze.

"Why do you want to stop me?"

The Queen Mother stared at Concubine Shu with great displeasure and questioned her.

"Empress Dowager, I am thinking about you. Your Majesty has already been displeased by what you said just now. Do you want your Majesty to save your face in front of so many people?"

"So do you want me to bear this?"

"Queen Dowager, if you are patient, the world will be peaceful. If you take a step back, the sky will be wide open. Now that His Majesty is protecting Concubine Xi, why do you have to annoy His Majesty? How long can a man's love last? Even if Concubine Xi is so beautiful, His Majesty will get tired of her after a while. Why don't we wait until His Majesty gets tired of her, and then we can eliminate Concubine Xi. Wouldn't it be better to get rid of the mother and keep the son?"

The words of Concubine Shu touched the heart of the Queen Mother, who looked at her with great appreciation:

"Shu Fei, you have made a lot of progress these days. If you can always stay by my side and help me like this, I will never let you down."

"I know the good intentions of the Queen Mother towards me, and I will repay her well in the future."

Concubine Shu smiled and exchanged a glance with the Empress Dowager. Everything was said without words.

On the other side, Xiahou Xuan stayed by Jiang Wange's side until dawn when Jiang Wange woke up.

"I.....what's wrong with me?"

When Jiang Wange woke up, he felt like his head was a mess and he didn't know what had happened.

"Wanwan, you're awake! I was really scared. Fortunately, you're okay!"

When Xiahou Xuan saw Jiang Wange wake up, he hugged her excitedly, but his movements were still very gentle, for fear of disturbing her and the baby in her belly.

"Your Majesty... I saw a lot of snakes just now. It was so scary... Could I have fainted from fright?"

Thinking of this, Jiang Wange couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. How could he be frightened to faint?

"I have asked people to investigate why there were so many snakes. You were bitten by a snake, which is very dangerous. If it weren't for... if it weren't for the timely treatment of the imperial physician, you and your child would have died long ago!"

Xiahou Xuan was both angry and anxious. He really didn't dare to think about what would have happened if he was a step later. His Wan Wan!

Jiang Wange didn't expect that he would be bitten by a snake and almost lost his life!

"I was poisoned by a snake? Is the child okay?"

Jiang Wange subconsciously touched her belly, which was still round and bulging.

"Don't worry, the snake venom was sucked out before it could spread, so you and the child are fine. From now on, I will stay with you all the time and will not give you the chance to get hurt again."

Even though she was able to escape danger in time because of the Xuanyi Guard following her, it was still too critical. If he had been with Wanwan at the time, he would never have given the snake a chance to get close to Wanwan!

Jiang Wange felt warmed when she heard Xiahou Xuan's words, then she held his hand and comforted him:

"Your Majesty, I'm fine. Did you not sleep all night? Anyway, you don't have to attend the morning court today, so come up and sleep with me for a while."

After hearing this, Xiahou Xuan thought for a moment, then took off his coat and lay down beside her.

Xiahou Xuan hugged Jiang Wange tightly and let her snuggle in his arms:

"Go to sleep. I'm here. Don't worry."

After saying that, Xiahou Xuan fell asleep first. Jiang Wange felt the hot body temperature in his arms and fell asleep again.

Qianyue and the others didn't dare to come in and disturb their masters' rest, and they stood silently outside the door.

When Jiang Wanyi heard Wen Yilan say that Jiang Wange was bitten by a snake and almost died, she wanted to go to the palace to visit Jiang Wange.

"Xiaoyi, don't go. His Majesty is accompanying Concubine Xi right now, so it's not appropriate for you to go. I'll go to the palace later to check Concubine Xi's pulse. If she's fine, you can come to the palace to visit her tomorrow."

After Wen Yilan, Xiahou Xuan would not let Jiang Wange see anyone and would only keep her by his side. So even if Jiang Wanyi entered the palace, she would not be able to see Concubine Xi.

"OK then."

Hearing this, Jiang Wange felt a little disappointed, but she was still clear about what was going on. She was just confused because she was too concerned.

When Wen Yilan saw that Jiang Wanyi understood, she let her sit in her arms:

"Xiaoyi, you are pregnant now, so you have to be careful about everything."

Wen Yilan sighed. When he saw that his good brother didn't even care about his own life for a woman, Wen Yilan thought that Xiahou Xuan was crazy.

But if he were to ask himself, if Jiang Wanyi was also bitten by a snake and asked someone to suck out the venom, he would suck out the venom for her without hesitation.

"I am not in such a dangerous palace like my sister. No one wants to harm me. Don't worry, husband."

"Do you know that someone wants to harm Concubine Xi?" Wen Yilan asked subconsciously.

Then Jiang Wanyi rolled her eyes:

"Where do so many poisonous snakes come from in the winter? They all hibernate. Unless someone deliberately raised these snakes and threw them in front of my sister to scare her, it would be even better if they could bite my sister. The person who murdered my sister must have thought so."

With the current temperature, even if you go to the deep mountains and forests to look for poisonous snakes, you may not find just one, let alone a nest of snakes. The person behind this is really putting a lot of effort into it.

It's just a bit too stupid, making people guess at once that he has some ulterior motive.

"I guess His Majesty is already investigating this matter. If it is discovered, the person who plotted to murder Concubine Xi will probably be in trouble. At least half of his life will be lost before His Majesty's anger can be appeased."

"If you ask me, it wouldn't be too much to even take his life. My sister is pregnant with the royal heir. If anything goes wrong, it would be a serious crime of murdering the royal heir, and it wouldn't be too much to grant him the death penalty." Jiang Wanyi said indignantly.
