His death was sudden and beyond everyone's expectation.
Doctor Chen just entered Situ's house to check on his injuries. Situ Lingyi and Mrs. Situ stood aside, looking anxiously at their son who was out of breath and out of breath on the bed. He thought that the doctor would see hope when he came, but he didn't expect that Doctor Chen would see him.
Then he sighed and shook his head: "Master Situ's injury..."
The injury was too severe and there was no way to recover.
"Imperial Physician." Mrs. Situ looked at him anxiously, holding his hand and pleading, "Imperial Physician, please save him. My uncle and I have only one son! We have only one son!"
"Madam, don't be like this." Doctor Chen took two steps back, tried hard to break free from her grasp, and looked at Situ Lingyi apologetically, "Uncle, please forgive me, I am really incompetent."
Situ Lingyi's face turned pale, visibly paler: "All hope is gone?"
"Imperial Physician!" Mrs. Situ suddenly lost control of her emotions and turned pale. "I beg you to think of a way! Imperial Physician, you are the most skilled in medicine-"
"Master Situ's injury is too serious." Doctor Chen sighed and had to interrupt her, "The torture caused the lumbar vertebrae to break. Even if he is rescued and treated in time, he will be paralyzed in bed for the rest of his life. Moreover, the medication has been delayed. Now,
It’s even more hopeless.”
Situ Lingyi staggered a step, quickly stretched out his hand to hold the bedpost to steady his body, and looked at his unconscious son lying on the bed stiffly, his voice was calm and emotionless: "Thank you, Doctor Chen, for this trip."
"I don't dare to take it." Doctor Chen raised his hands and clasped his fists, "I am really sorry and have to say goodbye."
Situ Lingyi ordered people to send him out. When Chen Taiyi turned around, Mrs. Chen suddenly rushed to him and knelt down, pleading sternly: "Imperial doctor! Please save Xuan'er. Without him, how can I live in the future?"
?Mr. Chen, please, please -"
"What are you doing?" Situ Lingyi glared at her, "Doesn't Doctor Chen not want to save him? What can he do if he can't be saved? You have to force others to make things difficult?!"
Mrs. Situ's face turned pale and she was in pain.
Xuan'er is her only hope. Without Xuan'er, how will she survive in the future?
"Madam..." Doctor Chen hesitated, then sighed heavily and turned to leave.
A sad cry came from behind: "Xuan'er! Xuan'er!"
Yun Baozhu stood stiffly outside, holding a bowl of freshly brewed soup in her hand. Situ Xuan could hardly drink it these days, but she still had to give him the medicine prescribed by the doctor three times a day, and drank it on time.
Mouth-feed him to drink.
Situ Xuan was unconscious. He drank less and wasted more every time. The soup was splashed everywhere on the bed.
Mrs. Situ said that she was Situ Xuan's wife, and it was her duty to be a good wife. Only the decoction she cooked herself could make Situ Xuan feel her virtuousness and love, and maybe he would recover faster.
So she had to get up before dawn every morning, spend an hour decoction for Situ Xuan, and then feed him to drink it herself. In order not to disturb Situ Xuan's peace and allow him to recover well, Mrs. Situ also asked her to give it to him personally.
He cleaned up the soiled bedding and clothes instead of letting the maid do it for him.
After tidying up all morning, I was so tired that my back ached. Before I even had time to eat, I had to cook the medicine for lunch in a hurry.
At night, he had to clean his hands and wipe his body.
How had the pampered princess ever done this before? She was asked to perform the duties of a good wife on the first day after she got married. She was boiled to the point of disgrace, and she was exhausted from serving Situ Xuan. How could she look like a newlywed wife?
Only she herself knows the pain in Yun Baozhu's heart.
But if Situ Xuan could get better, she would get over it even if it was a little more difficult, but now... the imperial doctor said that there was no hope for him?
On the wedding night, she started taking care of a seriously injured husband who was unconscious. She never enjoyed her husband's love or the wedding flowers that she deserved. After being sleepless and exhausted for so many days, she was told that Situ Xuan had no hope?
Does this mean she will be a widow in the future?
Yun Baozhu thought of her unsatisfactory fate since she left Dayong...no, ever since she provoked Yun Zishu. She felt regretful and regretful at the same time, regretting why she provoked Yun Zishu.
If she had not provoked Yun Zishu in Dayong, she would not have been brought to Dongyou out of revenge.
However, what she hates even more is that Yun Zishu is so cruel and cruel that he must retaliate, and has brought her to this point.
Yun Baozhu bit her lower lip tightly, took a deep breath, covered up the resentment and unwillingness on her face, took the soup and stepped into the threshold with her eyebrows lowered.
"Father, mother." Yun Baozhu spoke respectfully and lonely. The pale color on his face was due to exhaustion and worry. "My husband's medicine is ready, I will feed it to him now."
Before Uncle Situ could say anything, Mrs. Situ suddenly rushed over to snatch the tray from her and threw it to the ground.
The medicine bowl shattered in an instant, and the soup splashed all over the floor. The strong sour and bitter smell was pungent and unpleasant, but it was nothing compared to Mrs. Situ's sudden slap in the face and the shrill voice: "This broom star! Xuan'er started to do well obviously.
He has been taken care of by you for a few days but it is getting worse and worse. Did you harm him on purpose? Tell me! Did you harm him on purpose?!"
The slap hit her face mercilessly, Mrs. Situ hit her like crazy, Yun Baozhu was stunned, her clothes were grabbed by her and she couldn't escape, there was only a buzzing in her ears, and a black shadow floated in front of her eyes
, I could feel a faint smell of fishy sweetness in my mouth...
She swayed and fell to the ground without warning.
…
As soon as Dr. Chen returned to the palace, he was summoned by the Queen. When he stepped into Fengyi Palace, before he could salute, he heard the Queen asking a little anxiously: "Doctor Chen, how is Xuan'er's condition?"
Doctor Chen's expression was solemn, and he lowered his head and replied: "Reporting to the Empress, Mr. Situ..."
"How is he?"
"I'm afraid I won't survive tonight."
The air became stagnant for a moment.
The queen sat stiffly in her chair, her expression froze little by little, and she could hardly believe what she heard.
"Master Situ's injury is too serious." Doctor Chen sighed regretfully, "I can't do anything. Please forgive me, the Queen."
The queen looked pale and was speechless for a long time.
It is true that Situ Xuan did not make it through that night, and died in the evening. A cloud of sorrow suddenly enveloped the uncle's house, and his cries were tragic and desperate.
"Situ Xuan is dead?" When Yun Zishu heard the news, she couldn't help but be a little surprised, "Didn't the imperial doctor come to see him today?"
"Mr. Chen said that Situ Xuan's injuries are too serious and there is no way to save him."
Yun Zishu sat in front of the carved window and was silent for a while, her eyebrows slightly deepened: "Although the medical skills of the doctors outside are not as good as those of the Imperial Hospital, Situ Xuan has at least been able to survive these past few days. Imperial Doctor Chen just went there today, and he
