Story of Yanxi Palace: Fu Ying's banner will never fall

Chapter 173 5 Days of Life

The beaded curtain swayed, making a crisp sound, and Mingyu walked out quickly from behind the curtain: "Yingluo! You are finally back, you scared me to death..."

She looked anxious and worried, and held Wei Yingluo's arm tightly.

Mingyu talked a lot and recounted everything that had happened in Changchun Palace over the past day.

As Wei Yingluo listened, she skillfully took out the silver needle and gently inserted it into the Queen's acupuncture point with precise and gentle movements.

As the acupuncture continued, the Queen's breathing gradually stabilized and her face regained some color. Wei Yingluo's heart was finally at ease.

"Mingyu, you did a great job when I was away." Wei Yingluo said with a smile, her eyes full of gratitude and relief.

Mingyu's eyes were red and tears welled up in them: "I'm so scared. If you don't come back, I don't know what to do."

Wei Yingluo comforted him, "Don't be afraid, everything will be fine. Let's take good care of the Queen and let her recover as soon as possible. Also, you must remember to protect Changchun Palace and ask Zhang Jianyi to protect the Second Prince."

Wei Yingluo couldn't help but give a few instructions.

Mingyu felt very aggrieved and pouted, "But we all miss you very much."

Wei Yingluo smiled, patted Mingyu's head, and said softly, "Okay, this is only temporary."

She patted Mingyu's shoulder and comforted him gently, "Don't be too sad, Mingyu. I will solve this matter as soon as possible and come back to you."

Mingyu nodded obediently.

Wei Yingluo returned to Yongxiang, but saw a familiar figure - Yuan Chunwang.

"Why are you here?" Wei Yingluo asked in surprise.

Yuan Chunwang's voice sounded coldly: "Why can't I come? Miss Yingluo got me out, so why did you enter this Xinzheku?"

Wei Yingluo looked up at him, smiled slightly, and said, "Eunuch Yuan is now a big shot in front of Empress Xian. Is there anything he doesn't know?"

Yuan Chunwang grabbed Wei Yingluo's sleeve and said viciously, "Why did you get yourself into this?"

Wei Yingluo replied calmly: "This has nothing to do with you."

Seeing that Wei Yingluo refused to give in, Yuan Chun sighed helplessly and said, "You are still so stubborn. If you need any help from me, just ask."

Wei Yingluo was surprised when she heard Yuan Chunwang's words. She immediately retorted, "When did I ever say I wanted to recognize you as my brother? Besides, it's not easy to be your sister."

Yuan Chunwang looked at Wei Yingluo, a sly smile flashed in his eyes, and said, "Why is it not easy? I am an old man in the Xinzheku, and also your predecessor, so I can naturally be your brother. You can't refuse."

After saying that, he laughed triumphantly.

Wei Yingluo felt helpless, but it was not easy to reject Yuan Chunwang directly, so she had to say tactfully: "Since you want to be a brother so much, I have a good sister in Changchun Palace. I can introduce her to you. How about letting her be your sister?"

After hearing this, Yuan Chunwang narrowed his eyes slightly and smacked his lips in disdain, "Wei Yingluo, are you really going to treat me like this?"

Wei Yingluo glared at him and said unhappily, "Having a sister is already great, why are you so picky?"

Yuan Chunwang's face turned gloomy, and he said in a serious tone: "Sisters are not something you can just recognize casually, but if you need my help, I can consider letting you be my adopted sister."

Wei Yingluo secretly complained in her heart, thinking: "I have fallen to this point now, why are you still not willing to let me go?"

But after thinking about it, she realized that there was one thing that might be easier if Yuan Chunwang came forward.

"Okay, okay, there's no harm in having more brothers." Wei Yingluo said helplessly.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Yuan Chunwang tapped her forehead with his curved finger. "What do you mean by too much? I will only accept one sister in my life, and I am also your only brother. Anyway, I still have to exchange the Engagement Letter first, and get your birth date and eight characters, and put them on the tablet of heaven and earth!"

Wei Yingluo covered her forehead with her hands, wondering why it happened again. She hoped that she could resolve his obsession as soon as possible this time.

She retorted, "That's not a Geng Tie, that's a Jin Lan Tie!"

Yuan Chunwang smiled nonchalantly and said slowly, "I don't care what the post is, just write it now!"

Wei Yingluo was so confused that she had no choice but to pick up a pen and write down her birth date according to his request.

After finishing writing, Yuan Chunwang carefully put away the Jinlan sticker, as if it was some precious treasure.

I don’t know why Yuan Chunwang cares so much about this matter in his past and present lives, but they used to be very good siblings.

When Wei Yingluo was writing, she also asked him about the latest situation in each palace. Yuan Chunwang told her in detail, and the news was consistent with that from Xiao Quanzi.

It’s the third day since the Queen’s accident.

Li Yu had already issued an imperial notice to look for Ye Tianshi's master or a famous doctor, but the time was too short and there was still no news.

After court every day, the emperor went to Changchun Palace to accompany the queen, and finally even ordered people to send all memorials to the palace.

All the people from the Imperial Hospital gathered in the side hall of Changchun Palace, all of them looked worried and sad.

At this time, Judge Zhang suddenly said, "Your Majesty, the Queen's pulse seems to be getting weaker and weaker. I'm afraid she won't last much longer!"

The emperor's face changed. "You bunch of quacks, what's the point of me keeping you? If anything happens to the queen, I will bury you all with me!"

The imperial doctors were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, not daring to say a word.

At this time, Ye Tianshi was called to Empress Fucha's bedside again.

Ye Tianshi felt the Queen's pulse and looked at her complexion, and he understood that his naughty disciple must have given the Queen acupuncture last night.

Now most of the toxins in the queen's body have been excreted, but she looks particularly weak because she cannot eat.

Ye Tianshi scratched his head and replied as his apprentice had instructed, "To answer your Majesty, the poison in the Empress' body is relatively stable, but...if she cannot eat, even if she is detoxified in the end, she will still be extremely weak."

The emperor frowned, "What should we do? Is there no way to get the queen to eat?"

Ye Tianshi hesitated for a moment, "Your Majesty, I do have another idea, but..."

"Hurry up!" the emperor interrupted him impatiently.

Ye Tianshi said cautiously: "I have heard that there is a kind of miraculous medicine called Wanshen, which can be held in the mouth instead of eating. However, this medicine uses thousand-year-old ginseng as the main ingredient, which is extremely precious and worth a fortune."

The emperor immediately ordered, "Li Yu, go find him! No matter the cost."

Li Yu took the order and left, while Ye Tianshi continued to stay in Changchun Palace to take care of the queen.

The emperor's face was pale, his eyes were bloodshot, and he seemed to have aged ten years overnight. He couldn't imagine that if his wife really had less than five days left to live...how would he face it?
