Marrying Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the Sp

Her expression suddenly changed, and a terrible idea suddenly appeared in her mind.

She frowned and looked at Concubine Rong: "Has Youyi eaten anything outside the palace recently?"

Concubine Rong shook her head subconsciously: "No, Youyi's food is all brought from the imperial kitchen and has been carefully checked by the maids!"

Lin Yiwan reminded him in a deep voice: "Think carefully before you answer. Raw food outside the palace. I just saw something in Youyi's throat that looked like a blood-sucking leech!"

Rong Fei's body shook violently. How could a blood-sucking leech get into her throat?

This is too terrible!

Emperor Sheng An angrily urged, "Concubine Rong, are you frightened? Think about it quickly. Has Youyi ever eaten raw food outside the palace?"

Rong shuddered at being scolded. After thinking carefully for a moment, she finally reacted: "I remember, when Youyi went to the Queen's palace before, an old maid brought fresh dates to Youyi. She thought they were sweet and crispy, so she ate several in succession!"

Lin Yiwan immediately frowned, fearing that the problem lay with those dates.

She quickly ordered Rong Fei: "Hurry and bring a bowl of warm salt water. The saltier the better. Hurry!"

At this time, Youyi's face became more and more ugly, and his breathing became rapid.

She clutched Emperor Sheng'an's hand tightly and asked, "Father, is Youyi going to be suffocated to death?"

No matter how cold-hearted the Forgiving Emperor was, his eyes were red when he heard his daughter's words.

He only has this one daughter!

He soothed her gently, "Don't be afraid, Youyi. With your Aunt Wanwan here, you will definitely be able to overcome the danger. You must trust her!"

Lin Yiwan reached out and wiped away Youyi's tears, encouraging her, "Your father is right. Aunt Wanwan will take action and I guarantee that the King of Hell will retreat. Just breathe calmly and don't be nervous!"

After listening to her words, Youyi felt less afraid and his expression became less ugly.

Concubine Rong quickly brought over some warm salt water and handed it to Lin Yiwan with trembling hands.

Lin Yiwan took a spoon and fed Princess Youyi the liquid, but because of the pain, she would only hold it in her mouth and could not swallow it.

Rong Fei was so anxious that tears fell. She sobbed and urged: "Youyi, drink it quickly, good boy, drink it quickly!"

Youyi shook his head vigorously, but spat out as soon as he opened his mouth.

Concubine Rong looked at Lin Yiwan in horror: "She can't swallow it at all, what should we do?"

Lin Yiwan said calmly, "Youyi, swallow it slowly. Even if it hurts, you have to drink it. The salt water will shrink the leech inside, and I can easily remove it!"

The previously well-behaved Youyi now felt resistance. She stammered with difficulty, "I, I can't drink it at all!"

Emperor Sheng An couldn't help but ask, "Wanwan, is there no other way?"

Lin Yiwan shook her head. "No, she'll have to rely on herself to drink the salt water. No one can help her. She might not believe my method works. Let's get someone to catch some blood-sucking leeches. I want her to see the effect with her own eyes!"

It is not difficult to find a few blood-sucking leeches, because they are also a kind of medicinal material, so the imperial pharmacy keeps a few of them.

After Li Delu brought it, Lin Yiwan put the fat leech into a bowl of warm salt water.

In just a moment, it shrank a lot, which made Youyi's eyes widen.

Is it true?

Emperor Sheng An was also relieved. He held Youyi's slender wrist and said, "See? Your Aunt Wanwan has some good ideas. How can you not have confidence in her?"

Youyi no longer refused to drink the warm salt water. She even took the bowl and poured it into her mouth.

Almost as soon as she finished drinking, she suddenly started vomiting with a pale face.

Seeing a small brown creature appear in the basin, Lin Yiwan breathed a sigh of relief.

At least it’s out!

It’s so dangerous!

Concubine Rong seemed to be frightened to death and was almost exhausted.

She asked tremblingly, "Wanwan, has Youyi vomited it out? Is she okay?"

Lin Yiwan carefully examined her throat again and said, "Well, it's just that her throat is severely damaged. She needs to take some medicine for a few days to recuperate!"

Emperor Sheng An urged: "Then hurry up and prescribe medicine for her. I will ask the Imperial Pharmacy to prepare it right away!"

After Lin Yiwan finished writing the prescription, she frowned and reminded him, "Your Majesty, you need to investigate whether Youyi's eating the leech-infested dates was an accident or a coincidence. Normally, fresh fruits like these should be washed carefully!"

There was a hint of chill on Emperor Sheng'an's stern face. He didn't think the queen would harm Youyi, but the old nanny who presented the dates to Youyi was highly suspicious.

Without further hesitation, he quickly ordered Li Youde to bring the person over personally.

Soon, not only was the old nanny brought over, but even the queen was supported by her maid.

She asked worriedly, "What happened to Youyi? I just heard about it. How could a blood-sucking leech get into her throat out of nowhere?"

The old maid knelt on the ground and cried out, "Your Majesty, please spare me. I don't know why there are blood-sucking leeches on the dates. I have clearly cleaned them thoroughly!"

Emperor Sheng An angrily rebuked: "This old evil slave refuses to tell the truth. Li Delu, drag her away and torture her. I don't believe she won't confess!"

The old nanny cried and wailed, then turned around and begged the queen for help.

She screamed, "Queen, the Emperor isn't just disposing of a servant. He's distrusting you and the Weiyang Palace!"

After hearing these words, the queen was completely shaken.

But she suddenly raised her hand and slapped the old nanny hard in the face: "Why are you howling? I have always treated Youyi as my own daughter. The Emperor and Concubine Rong have seen clearly how I treat her. There is no need for you to stir up trouble!"

Emperor Sheng An's expression immediately softened a lot. He was really afraid that the Queen would be unhappy because of the old nanny's instigation.

He said in a deep voice, "At first, I was worried that I had wrongly accused you, but now that I hear you provoking me like this, I am certain it was you who did it. Come, drag her to the torture chamber for a slow interrogation!"

After drinking the medicine, Youyi slowly fell asleep. Seeing her peaceful sleeping face, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

The Queen's eyes were red as she said, "No matter who ordered the old nanny to do so, Youyi's accident happened in my Weiyang Palace, so I cannot escape the blame!"

Rong Fei quickly said: "Sister Queen, please don't say that. You don't want to do that. You are Youyi's mother. She won't blame you!"

The emperor followed suit and said, "The matter has not been thoroughly investigated yet, so don't take the blame on yourself. I know how you treated Youyi!"

The Queen suddenly whimpered in grievance: "Your Majesty!"

Emperor Sheng An sighed helplessly, took a step forward and held her in his arms to comfort her.

Seeing that the emperor and empress had resolved their rift, Lin Yiwan and Concubine Rong smiled at each other.
