Chapter 566 Arriving, There's a Ghost
When Xie Ying heard the news, she immediately ran to Emperor Taihe and asked to go to Hejian Prefecture.
Emperor Taihe did not want to agree. Hejian Prefecture was adjacent to the enemy country, and he was worried that something might happen to Xie Ying.
Xie Ying's attitude was extremely resolute. She raised her little face and looked straight at Emperor Taihe: "Your Majesty, if I can't even save my own family, what kind of lucky star am I? Please let me go to the border!"
If you can't save my grandfather, at least let me see him one last time. It's been more than two years since he passed away, and I haven't seen him for a long time."
These words successfully moved Emperor Taihe.
Emperor Taihe thought about how he had forced Xie Ying to stay in the palace for three years, and that Tu Yong went to Hejian Prefecture to grow potatoes, corn and sweet potatoes, also working for him.
Now that Tu Yong has been poisoned and is near death, it would be too cruel if Xie Ying was not allowed to see him for the last time.
So he sighed and said, "I'll have Lu Xuan personally escort you and the imperial physician there."
Xie Ying immediately smiled happily and flattered Emperor Taihe: "Uncle Emperor, I knew you were a good man!"
Xie Ying didn't like kneeling to others, so as early as when she was one year old, she took advantage of her young age and deliberately behaved disrespectfully in the palace, calling Emperor Taihe "uncle", Concubine Jiang "beautiful aunt", and Queen Mother Zhao "mother-in-law".
During the three years since she was brought to the palace, although someone taught her the rules, Emperor Taihe and Concubine Jiang both liked her as a mascot, so she still deliberately shouted nonsense from time to time.
Don’t think it’s just an ordinary question of address. A seemingly ordinary address represents the difference between insiders and outsiders.
Xie Ying relied on shouting to force herself to become a close friend of Emperor Taihe and Concubine Jiang.
After all, people are all made of flesh and blood. Who can be completely cold-blooded and heartless as long as they are human?
With Emperor Taihe's consent, Xie Ying set off quickly.
Xie Ying didn't want to tell her family about Tu Yong's death from poisoning. Time was pressing, and she couldn't afford to delay.
So in less than an hour, Xie Ying was riding on a horse and was escorted out of the capital by Lu Xuan.
Two imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Bureau also set out with them.
In order to save time, everyone had to ride horses.
However, Xie Ying was too young and had a special status, so Lu Xuan didn't dare let her ride alone, so she and Lu Xuan rode on the same horse and Lu Xuan held her in his arms.
Lu Xuan is now filled with gratitude towards Xie Ying, because ever since Xie Ying gave him a lucky bag, his wives and concubines have become pregnant one after another!
Just recently, his wife gave birth to his fourth son.
How could Lu Xuan not be grateful to Xie Ying?
Even if Emperor Taihe did not give the order, he would risk his life to protect Xie Ying, his great benefactor.
The group continued on their journey, changing horses at the post station along the way, almost without rest day and night, and finally arrived at Hejian Prefecture two days later.
Because they hadn't rested much during the journey, the two doctors were already very tired. However, in order to fulfill the order of Emperor Taihe, they still forced themselves to go see Tu Yong.
Xie Ying also went.
And she is the most spirited one among all of them.
Lu Xuan took her on horseback riding all the way, so she had enough time to rest.
What's more, Xie Ying also has wood-related abilities.
So after getting off the horse, she immediately strode forward and came to Tu Yong as fast as she could.
Tu Jiaojiao was standing guard beside Tu Yong and was very surprised to see Xie Ying: "Yingying? Why...why are you here?"
Xie Ying walked to the bedside, grabbed Tu Yong's hand, activated her supernatural powers to sense him secretly, and said, "I heard that my grandfather had died of poisoning, so I rushed over."
Tu Jiaojiao hadn't seen Xie Ying for two years, but strictly speaking, she had only seen Xie Ying briefly in the palace two years ago.
Seeing the much taller Xie Ying, Tu Jiaojiao couldn't help but feel a little strange. However, this strange feeling was soon diluted by the blood connection between the two.
Tu Jiaojiao looked at her daughter infatuatedly, and soon she could no longer contain her excitement, and hugged Xie Ying into her arms.
At this time, Lu Xuan hurried in with two imperial doctors, ready to see Tu Yong.
Xie Ying calmly withdrew her hand and stepped aside with Tu Jiaojiao.
The imperial physician quickly stepped forward and took Tu Yong's pulse.
Xie Ying lowered her eyes to hide the coldness in them.
When Tu Yong left the capital two years ago, she also gave Tu Yong a lucky bag containing a lock of her hair and a special seed.
Once Tu Yong encounters a poisonous insect or suffers a fatal injury, the seed will be activated and actively enter Tu Yong's body to save his life.
Just now, she sensed that the seed had been stimulated.
This time, Tu Yong was not only poisoned, but also infected by a poisonous insect. Someone stabbed him in the abdomen, injuring his intestines.
If it weren't for that seed, Tu Yong would have died long ago.
If it were just that, it would be fine, but the point is that after Tu Yong was seriously injured, he was poisoned again!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been in a coma.
After the seed is stimulated, it will automatically devour the poison in Tu Yong's body and even speed up the healing of his wounds.
But Tu Yong was already seriously injured and was poisoned again. After the seed swallowed the new poison, it could no longer heal Tu Yong's injuries.
If she hadn't arrived, Tu Yong might never have woken up again.
Moreover, after he was injured, he was poisoned again, which means that there might be something wrong with the doctor who treated him!
Xie Ying now wanted to see if the two imperial doctors could see anything.
The two men carefully took Tu Yong's pulse, checked his wounds and medication, and soon frowned.
Seeing this, Tu Jiaojiao immediately became a little panicked: "What did the two imperial doctors find out? I wonder if my father can still be saved?"
A royal doctor asked, "Has Lord Tu been in a coma since he was injured?"
Tu Jiaojiao nodded quickly: "My father has been in a coma since he was injured, and I can only force him to drink some medicine and porridge."
"Master Tu's pulse is a little weak. I think the detoxification prescription we used before was not very effective. Now we can only try a different one. However, whether Master Tu can wake up depends on fate."
When the imperial physician said this, he couldn't help but look at Xie Ying.
