Chapter 228
Taking It Out
"Say what you said to me again!"
Yamuna looked at the palace servant who was serving him, with fierce eyes like an evil ghost crawling out of hell. The palace servant was so frightened that he knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, the imperial doctor said that the prince's life is fine, but from now on... he will no longer be able to stand."
Seeing Yemu's expressionless face and no reaction, the palace attendant was so scared that he swallowed his saliva and said: "But the imperial doctor said that as long as he takes good care of himself in the future, except for being unable to walk, he will be fine..."
"Someone is coming!"
Yamuna suddenly spoke, and a guard came in from outside: "Your Majesty."
"Drag him out to me and beat him to death with sticks!"
When the palace servants heard this, they were so frightened that they kowtowed repeatedly: "Your Majesty, please forgive me! It was my servant who made a mistake. Please forgive me, Your Majesty..."
"Drag out!"
After giving the order, the guards immediately pulled the person out. The other maids and eunuchs serving in the room were so frightened by this scene that they did not dare to breathe.
Knowing that he could never stand up again, the blood in Yemu Na's body seemed to be boiling, and an unknown anger burned throughout his body.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, it's time to take medicine."
A palace maid approached with the medicine in hand. Because she was too nervous, some of the medicine had already been spilled when she reached the bed.
Yemuna looked at her with a cold face. When the palace maid met his eyes, she was frightened and knelt on the ground with a 'pop'.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I didn't mean to do this."
Although the palace maid only made a small mistake, she was in an extremely bad mood when she met Yamuna. One can imagine how tragic her end would be.
"Take her down and serve her with water torture!"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
In just two hours, a group of palace maids and eunuchs were killed by Yamuna's order. After that, everyone sent to take care of him was in danger.
Yamuna felt that killing people was not enough, not to mention that no matter how many people he killed, he would not be able to vent his anger, so at this moment he suddenly remembered something.
"Where's Shu Ning?"
"Go back to your lord, the fifteenth princess is resting in the room."
"Rest? I am injured. As my future princess, she can still rest peacefully."
The palace man wanted to speak for Shu Ning, but when he saw Yamuna's face, he was so frightened that he shut his mouth.
Yemunna curled her lips and sneered, raised her hand and waved, "Bring her here and say that I miss her so much that I ask her to come and serve the meal."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
However, after a while, Shu Ning came belatedly wearing a light-colored dress. When she came to the bed and saw Ye Muna, she couldn't help but tremble.
"Your Majesty."
Yemu Na looked at her coldly, then stretched out his hand to her: "You and I are about to get married, but something like this happened. Does the princess regret marrying this king?"
Shu Ning gingerly put her hand on his palm and shook her head in denial: "No, I already like the prince, how could I regret it?"
"Really? I didn't expect you to be infatuated with me. If that's the case, why did you run away last time?"
"Last time...Last time I was not clear-headed. I hope the prince doesn't take it to heart."
Yemu's eyes suddenly changed, he pulled Shu Ning in front of his eyes, stared at her and said, "This king is being plotted against me, do you know the inside story?"
Shu Ning turned pale with fright and shook her head in panic: "I don't know, I don't know anything."
Yamuna stared at her for a long time, and finally pushed Shu Ning to the ground with a strong push.
"Serve my king to eat."
"yes."
Shu Ning got up from the ground. The palace servants had already brought the meal to the table. She walked to the table almost trembling.
In the following time, Yemuna always found fault with Shu Ning. At first, he just cursed a few times, but in the end, he started to use his hands directly, beating and scolding. The palace people on the side were shocked when they saw this situation.
Dare to interrupt.
It was like this for two days in a row, with more and more scars on Shu Ning's body. The maid who served her couldn't stand it anymore and told Song Baoling about it.
"The broken leg is still unacceptable to Yamuna. It is normal for him to treat the princess like this."
Song Baoling's words made Shu Ning feel angry. She slammed the table and said angrily: "Then I will always be treated like this by him?"
"His broken leg was caused by himself, and it was not caused by me. Why should I be the one who suffers in the end? This is not fair!"
Looking at Shu Ning who was going crazy, Song Baoling was silent for a while, then took out a small porcelain bottle and put it on the table.
"Yemuna seems to have the habit of touching his nose. This thing should be able to help the princess."
After glancing at Song Baoling, Shu Ning picked up the porcelain bottle and hesitated, "What if someone discovers it?"
"This medicine is colorless and odorless and will not be noticed by anyone."
"But if he died for no reason, someone would definitely doubt me."
"Death?" Song Baoling looked at her and was stunned for a moment. After realizing what she meant, he smiled helplessly and shook his head: "Princess, this medicine will not make him die."
"Then what does it do?"
"It can make people fall asleep. If Yamuna remains asleep, he will no longer be able to harm the princess, and your wedding ceremony will be temporarily stopped because of this."
After hearing Song Baoling's explanation, Shu Ning breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking of the evil deeds Yemu had done to her in the past, she couldn't wait to go there with the porcelain bottle.
While Shu Ning was wiping Yamuna's hands, she took the opportunity to apply medicinal powder on his hands. When Yemuna touched his nose habitually, the powder was also sucked into his body.
"I don't have any memory at all and I'm clumsy. Tomorrow you..."
Yemuna complained with an unhappy face. At this moment, sleepiness suddenly came over him, and he fell asleep completely before he finished speaking.
Seeing this, Shu Ning tentatively called out softly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
After shouting several times, Yemuna didn't respond. Shu Ning breathed a sigh of relief, then ran to the door and pretended to be panicked, shouting: "Please call the doctor quickly, the prince has passed out."
The group was so busy that some people from the palace ran to ask for the imperial doctor, while others hurriedly ran to report to the emperor.
The emperor was worried about Yamuna's health, so he hurried over just as the imperial doctor was finishing his pulse diagnosis, "What's going on? Didn't you say your life is safe? Why did you faint again?"
"Back to the emperor, judging from the pulse, the prince is indeed alive and well. As for being lethargic..."
Having said this, the imperial doctor thought for a moment and continued: "The prince's legs were severely injured. Although there is no danger of life, the fundamental damage is still done."
"The prince's drowsiness at this time should be due to excessive fatigue. Coupled with the reaction of the medicine, it will take a while to patiently nurse him back to health before he will get better."
After learning that this was a normal reaction after taking the medicine, the emperor was relieved and immediately told the people in the mansion to take good care of Yamuna before leaving.
Shu Ning stood guard by the bed, looking at Yamuna who was sleeping and unresponsive, and felt like she was breathing heavily in her heart.
Since then, Yamuna would wake up for one hour or three every day, and then fall into a coma again after drinking the medicine. However, due to the diagnosis of the imperial doctor, no one noticed that there was anything fishy about it.
