The emperor was seriously ill, and all the imperial physicians were helpless, and the court was in chaos.
After Shangguan Yue returned to the court, he quickly stabilized the situation with his prestige.
However, the emperor sent an edict in the bedroom that when he was sick, he would only allow the pregnant virtuous concubine to serve him, and no official could receive him.
Xiao Yujue was anxious.
According to the news conveyed by the eyeliner in the palace, the emperor's expression was getting worse and worse, his body was also very weak, and he could die at any time.
If he is not by his side when the emperor dies, even if he is the legitimate heir to the throne, there may be any change.
Judging from the current situation, Brother Shuyan is not on his side. If she is playing tricks, she will be unable to guard against it.
"Your Highness..." Mu Jingyan rushed into Xiao Yujue's study, his eyes flushed, and he said, "What happened to my brother."
Xiao Yujue was shocked.
If something happened to Mu Jingrui at this time, it would be like cutting off his right arm.
"What's wrong with him?"
"He was seriously injured in poisoning and was unconscious..."
"Go and have a look."
Xiao Yujue immediately ordered the housekeeper to prepare a sedan chair, set out from behind in a low profile, and rushed straight to Mu Jingrui's mansion.
Yin Yuqing had already found her father to plead with her and invited an imperial physician from the palace to treat Mu Jingrui, but after taking the imperial physician's medicine, Mu Jingrui did not react at all.
"See Your Highness the Crown Prince..."
Yin Yuqing saw Xiao Yujue coming in person, and forced herself to stand up and salute.
"No gift." Xiao Yujue quickly walked into the room, looking at Mu Jingrui's face turned purple and his lips turned blue, and he was shocked.
He called the imperial physician out and asked, "What is the situation with Jing Rui?"
"If you go back to Your Highness, Lord Mu will be seriously poisoned, and I'm afraid... I'll be alive soon."
"You're talking nonsense." Mu Jingyan was so angry that he trembled all over. "My brother is strong and has a deep internal strength. He was fine a few days ago, why did he..."
"Oh, if Lord Mu hadn't had a strong internal strength, he would have died long ago. His Royal Highness, the lower-ranking officials would be powerless."
Mu Jingyan couldn't help crying. "Your Highness, what should I do? I don't want my brother to die... I'm the only relative left."
Xiao Yujue put his arms around Mu Jingyan's shoulders, comforted him softly, turned to look at the imperial physician and said, "I want you to declare to the public that Lord Mu is just in a bad state, and there is nothing serious."
The imperial doctor was slightly stunned and then reacted.
Mu Jingrui and Xiao Yujue are a community of interests. In this case, Mu Jingrui is a trump card in Xiao Yujue's hands.
If Mu Jingrui had something to do, it would greatly weaken Xiao Yujue's strength. Those who played for Mu Jingrui in the army would also be swaying.
"Please rest assured, Your Highness, Lord Mu is nothing to do, you can recover after a few days of rest." The imperial physician immediately changed his words.
"Very good." Xiao Yujue rewarded the imperial physician with some property, "You go back."
"Your Highness, then we now..."
Xiao Yujue winked and stopped Mu Jingyan from continuing.
When he returned to the room, he saw Yin Yuqing sitting beside Mu Jingrui's bed sobbing, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
"Mrs. Mu doesn't have to be sad, and Jing Rui's injuries are not that desperate."
Yin Yuqing heard this and looked up at Xiao Yujue. "Your Highness has a solution?"
"The doctor in my mansion is skilled in medical skills and is looking for talented people from the people. However, he is unwilling to leave the Prince's Mansion. I think, what do you think to take Jingrui back to the Prince's Mansion to recuperate from the prince's mansion?"
Yin Yuqing was stunned.
Xiao Yujue was actually not discussing with her, she just notified her.
"If Your Highness has a way to save my husband, I will naturally be willing to cooperate. I will clean up immediately and follow Your Highness to the Prince's Mansion."
"Madam Mu, it's not that I don't welcome you to go with you, but this matter needs to be kept as secret as possible. The Mu Mansion is so big that there are many things to take care of every day, so it's better for you to stay at home. What's wrong with Jing Rui?
I will send someone to notify you immediately.”
Yin Yuqing was speechless and could only nodded silently.
She stood up and took Mu Jingyan's hand and begged, "I'm lucky, I have to take care of him no matter what..."
"Um."
Mu Jingyan's mood was very complicated. She knew in her heart that there was no such person Xiao Yujue mentioned in the prince's mansion.
She could guess that Xiao Yujue was asking for help from Shangguan Wanning.
Sure enough, after Xiao Yujue took Mu Jingrui back to the prince's mansion, he immediately studied the book himself, sent his confidant to sneak into the prime minister's mansion, and informed Shangguan Wanning of Mu Jingrui's situation.
Shangguan Wanning was shocked.
Since she separated from Mu Jingrui, she has been nervous and unable to sleep at night, just because she is worried that something will happen to Mu Jingrui.
You really want to come whatever you are afraid of.
Shangguan Wanning used the excuse to go to Deshantang, and slipped out of the back door of Deshantang, and only brought Huo Gang to the prince's mansion.
She looked at Mu Jingrui who was unconscious, and all the complaints and hatred she had once been left behind.
She held Mu Jingrui's hand tightly, and tears fell like rain.
"Don't cry for now, see if there is a way to save Jing Rui." Xiao Yujue persuaded.
In fact, while Shangguan Wanning was crying, she had already taken Mu Jingrui's pulse.
She looked up at Xiao Yujue and shook her head helplessly.
Xiao Yujue's heart suddenly became cold. "Is there really nothing I can do?"
"No..." Shangguan Wanning wiped away her tears, calmed her emotions, and asked the servants to bring the four treasures of the study and prescribed a prescription, "Please ask your highness to take the medicine according to the prescription, and then decoct it and have to bring it."
Mu Jingyan was worried about handing it over to others, so he went to do this in person.
While waiting for the decoction, Shangguan Wanning asked Huo Gang to help Mu Jingrui up, took off his shirt and sealed several acupoints on his body to prevent the toxicity from spreading again.
She saw Mu Jingrui's back, the scratched wound by her, and couldn't help but feel a sore throat in the tip of her nose.
Half an hour later, Mu Jingyan brought the medicine over, and Shangguan Wanning carefully fed Mu Jingrui and drank it.
"Are you just taking the medicine and my brother will be fine?" Mu Jingyan's nervous voice became hoarse.
But Shangguan Wanning gave her a desperate answer.
"No. The medicine I gave Jing Rui, including sealing the acupoints, can only temporarily relieve the toxic attack."
"Then...what should the poison be completely eliminated?"
"I..." Shangguan Wanning lowered her head in shame, "I am really not sure. Maybe I can only ask for help from my master."
"I'll send someone to invite Doctor Lu..." Xiao Yujue said.
Shangguan Wanning shook her head. "Only people can't enter the Medicine King Valley at all. My master has a strange temper. If others go, they may not be able to touch him."
"Then you go." Mu Jingyan urged.
"Every four hours, someone needs to seal the acupoints for Jing Rui, otherwise the toxicity will spread. Moreover... my footwork is too slow, and I am afraid that it will delay Jing Rui's injury."
Shangguan Wanning said, her eyes turning to Xiao Yujue.
