Best friends travel through time together! Marry the paranoid! Divorce together

Pei Junheng leaned over, wrapped his big hands around her slender waist, and lifted her up easily. "Call the imperial physician!"

"Yes!" The servants guarding the palace gate hurried to call the imperial physician.

The scene fell into chaos for a while.

Pei Junheng carried Yu Huan back to the bedroom and gently placed her on the couch.

He had just covered her with the quilt when the Queen Mother and Pei Wanyue rushed in.

Looking at Yu Huan with her eyes closed, her beautiful face was pale and sickly, she had lost her usual liveliness and instead looked more dignified.

The Queen Mother was filled with worry, and anxiety instantly filled her heart. "Huan'er was fine just now, why did she faint?"

"Has the imperial sister-in-law been poisoned?" Pei Wanyue's mood was like the restless surface of a lake, and it took a long time to calm down.

Pei Junheng sat on the edge of the couch, lowered his eyelashes to suppress the strangeness in his eyes, and said calmly: "Let's wait for the imperial physician to come and see her before making a final conclusion."

Pei Wanyue noticed her brother's melancholy and subconsciously looked at the Queen Mother, "Mother, shall we sit down and wait?"

The Queen Mother lowered her eyes and responded, "Okay."

Pei Wanyue helped the empress dowager sit down in front of the table.

The imperial physician came running in with a medicine box and knelt down to pay his respects: "Your Highness, I pay your respects..."

Pei Junheng frowned and interrupted him, "No need to be polite, just show it to the Queen!"

"Yes, Your Majesty." The imperial physician agreed and hurriedly took out a handkerchief to check Yu Huan's pulse.

All eyes fell on the imperial physician, secretly sizing him up.

After a while, a thin layer of sweat appeared on the imperial physician's forehead, and he spoke tremblingly:

"Your Majesty, the Empress fell into a coma due to the toxins in her body acting up and becoming unable to endure it."

"I will give you acupuncture right now. You will wake up in less than a cup of tea."

"But the matter of the Empress' poisoning cannot be delayed any longer, otherwise many unpredictable symptoms will appear."

Pei Junheng's eyebrows arched slightly, his eyes filled with deep worry, and he ordered: "Give the queen acupuncture quickly."

"Yes." The imperial physician did not dare to delay and took out a silver needle and inserted it into Yu Huan's meridians.

The Queen Mother had never heard them mention Yu Huan's poisoning, and her eyes swept across Pei Wanyue.

Pei Wanyue pursed her red lips and said softly:

"The Emperor's sister-in-law was accidentally poisoned by Zhao Lin. The palace doctors were helpless and could not come up with an antidote. That's why we had to go to the Western Kingdom to find the legendary doctor Yunyin."

"Mother, we didn't mean to hide it from you, we just didn't want you to worry too much..."

After she finished speaking, Pei Wanyue raised her eyes cautiously and looked at the empress dowager's expression.

The Queen Mother frowned, her expression filled with worry. She twirled the Buddhist beads on her wrist with her fingertips and whispered softly, "May the gods favor Huan'er, and may he live in health and happiness for years to come."

Pei Wanyue understood it clearly and remained silent.

After the imperial physician finished acupuncture on Yu Huan, he knelt on the side and waited.

At one o'clock in the evening, Yu Huan still showed no signs of waking up.

Pei Junheng's expression was stern, and he exuded an invisible intimidating force. "The time has passed, why hasn't the Queen woken up yet?"

The imperial physician knelt tremblingly on the ground, "Your Majesty, the Empress may wake up a little later..."

Your Majesty, please wake up.

If you don't wake up, I will lose my head.

Pei Junheng lowered his eyebrows, his eyes kept moving on Yu Huan's face, not moving an inch.

Until three quarters past You, Yu Huan still hadn't woken up.

Pei Junheng gently rubbed his aching brow and said to the Queen Mother, "Mother, it's getting late. You should go back and rest. I will send someone to inform you when the Queen wakes up."

The Queen Mother didn't want to leave, but she was forcibly pulled away by Pei Wanyue after receiving Pei Junheng's signal.

Pei Junheng raised his eyelids and glanced at the imperial physician, but he hadn't said anything yet.

The imperial physician trembled and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know why the Empress has not woken up yet. Please spare her life..."

Pei Junheng's expression was cold and a bit chilling, which made people feel awe.

After a moment, he lowered his eyes and said, "I didn't say I would take off your head, so why would you spare your life?"

The imperial physician was slightly stunned, and after a long while, he finally managed to say, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me."

Pei Junheng's expression darkened a little, and he waved his hand to let him leave.

"I'll take my leave." The imperial physician hunched his body and took a few steps back. When he was near the door of the bedroom, he turned around and ran away.

Yu Huan raised his eyes slightly and couldn't help but jokingly said, "Your Majesty scared the imperial physician quite a bit, as if he wanted to eat him."

Pei Junheng's eyes fell on her bloodless face, with a faint glint in his eyes. "When did you wake up?"

"I just woke up." Yu Huan said.

She was awake for a while, but she didn't open her eyes until she heard them talking.

"Are you feeling unwell?" Pei Junheng asked her in a low voice.

Yu Huan shook his head slightly, "No."

She supported herself on the bed and tried to stand up, but her body felt weak and limp, and she fell back onto the couch in less than a moment.

Yu Huan frowned slightly and wanted to try again.

Pei Junheng pushed her back onto the couch and spoke softly:

"You just woke up, so it's normal to feel weak. I wanted to leave for the Western Kingdom tonight, but you're not feeling well. Rest for two days before setting off."

Yu Huan was silent for a moment, then asked, "Did I faint from the poison in my body?"

Pei Junheng hummed softly.

Yu Huan's eyes darkened. She had been in pain all over her body for a while, and could only suppress it by taking relief pills.

Now he fainted without any warning, and when he woke up he had no strength at all.

What will be next?

Yu Huan moved her lips, and after a long time she uttered a soft sound, "Pei Junheng, am I not going to live much longer?"

Pei Junheng had seen her cheerful and straightforward before, but this was the first time he saw her so gloomy and depressed.

His throat slowly rolled, and a bitter taste slid down from top to bottom into his heart, so bitter that it hurt.

The candlelight flickered, casting a small shadow on his face, concealing the dark and obscure emotions within.

Pei Junheng raised his arm, revealing a dazzling white wrist, and gently stroked Yu Huan's hair, his tone softening rarely:

"My queen will be safe for years to come."

In an instant, Yu Huan felt the blood in his body solidify and his heart was beating like never before.

The candlelight cast a faint halo around Pei Junheng, making people unable to look away.

Yu Huan blinked her starry eyes gently, forced herself to look away, and coughed lightly.

Even the decadence just now was covered by shyness.

"Why is the Queen blushing? Is she too bored?" Pei Junheng's eyes fell on her slightly red cheeks.

Yu Huan nodded, "Yeah, it's quite boring."

Pei Junheng leaned over and pulled the quilt down for her. "Are you feeling better now?"

Yu Huan could feel the faint fragrance from his body drifting into her nose. Afraid that it would disturb her mind, she shrank her head and hid under the quilt.

"I'm going to sleep, Your Majesty, please go back first."

Pei Junheng stretched out his bony fingers, pulled down the quilt, and said in a low voice, "Don't cover your face, it will suffocate you."
