Chapter 243 The 3rd Prince is No Longer Stupid
Yun Haoze came with the emperor's token in hand, and the palace guards naturally did not dare to stop him. At this time, Yan Wuque was already sitting in a wheelchair, and Yun Yuxi pushed him slowly towards the hall.
When the butler saw Yun Haoze coming, he hurriedly brought tea to entertain him. After all, Yun Haoze was the emperor's personal guard, so it would be better to avoid offending him if possible.
However, Yun Haoze was extremely anxious at the moment, because he knew that the third prince's condition was extremely critical and time was running out and no time could be lost.
Just when Yun Haoze was getting extremely anxious and losing his patience, Yun Yuxi finally appeared slowly. When Yan Wuque saw him, he asked unhappily, "It's already this late, doesn't Guard Yun need to sleep? What on earth are you doing here in the middle of the night?"
Yun Haoze hurriedly explained: "Sister, this is His Majesty's token! The Third Prince suddenly started bleeding from all seven orifices at the banquet and fell into a coma.
The head of the Imperial Hospital was at a loss as to what to do and could not treat the case, so he recommended you to His Majesty. Now His Majesty orders you to go to the palace immediately and treat the Third Prince!"
After hearing this, Yun Yuxi turned to look at Yan Wuque and asked softly, "Husband, you also attended the banquet today. When you came back, did the Third Prince get into trouble?"
Yan Wuque shook his head and said: "No, Yu'er, pack up and let's go into the palace. Guard Yun goes first and we will follow later."
Yun Haoze nodded helplessly. He found that Yun Yuxi seemed like a stranger and never treated him as a brother. When he thought about what Liu had done, he could understand it in his heart.
Chi Yan arranged the carriage, and the couple discussed the situations that might arise at any time in the carriage.
"Yu'er, maybe we don't need to do anything. The Third Prince's poisoning incident was probably caused by an agreement between that old man Luo Jingde and the Crown Prince of Northern Qi to clear the Third Prince of his stupidity."
"Your Majesty, who says it's not true? The Third Prince needs an opportunity to get rid of his stupidity. Today's banquet, all the ministers are here, and the Crown Prince of Northern Qi is also here. This is indeed a good opportunity."
"The Northern Qi crown prince was accompanied into the palace by an old man today. If I am not mistaken, it should be the witch doctor Wu Xi, the great doctor of Northern Qi. We are just joining in the fun. I am afraid that when I enter the palace, the third prince will wake up."
"Your Highness, the Third Prince won't let me see a doctor because he can't be sure whether we will take this opportunity to blackmail him. Hahahaha." The couple talked angrily but harmoniously.
In Shangyang Palace, all the ministers dared not breathe. Emperor Suwen looked serious as he watched Wuxi perform acupuncture.
Concubine Rong cried so much that her eyes were swollen like peaches. She showed such a deep love between mother and son. No one could have imagined that the matter of the Third Prince was a complete conspiracy.
After Wu Xi gave the last injection, he stepped aside. About a quarter of an hour later, the unconscious Third Prince suddenly opened his eyes, spit out a mouthful of black blood, and then looked around in confusion, muttering to himself:
"Why am I here? Where is this place? Why are there so many needles on my body?"
When Concubine Rong heard this, she was delighted and rushed forward, asking with concern: "Hao'er, do you feel uncomfortable? You scared your mother!"
"Mother..." The Third Prince blinked and looked at the person in front of him, seeming a little confused. Then, as if he remembered something, he asked anxiously:
"Mother, where is Father? Why am I here? I remember that I should be at the welcoming banquet for the Crown Prince of Northern Qi. What happened?"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Suwen raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of surprise and joy in his eyes. He asked softly, "Third Brother, are you finally back to normal?"
The third prince struggled to sit up from the bed, but was stopped by Concubine Rong.
At this time, Wu Xi's voice came from the side: "Your Highness, Third Prince, don't be in a hurry to get up. Wait for me to remove the silver needle from your body first."
The father and son of the Luo family looked at each other, with a look of surprise on their faces. They spoke carefully, "Your Majesty, it seems that the Third Prince is no longer stupid. He couldn't even recognize his own mother before, but now he can recognize people and speak clearly. This is great! Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
At this time, Wu Xi had removed all the silver needles. The third prince, with the help of the guards, got off the bed, walked to Emperor Suwen, and knelt down to pay his respects.
"Father, I have been stupid since childhood and have brought shame to you. I don't know what happened. When I woke up, I was in Shangyang Palace. Thank you for your tolerance over the years," the third prince said sincerely.
Emperor Su Wen looked at the Third Prince and said happily: "Get up and go see your mother. You scared her today. It seems that this time you have turned a disaster into a blessing. You must thank Mr. Wuxi tomorrow."
The Third Prince stood up and immediately bowed to Wu Xi and said, "Thanks to Mr. Wu Xi's treatment, I have recovered. You are my great benefactor! I would like to invite you to come to my house tomorrow to have a chat. I will repay you for saving my life."
The third prince expressed his gratitude generously, and the ministers nodded in praise, saying that the third prince behaved appropriately and generously and had fully recovered.
At this moment, Yan Wuque and his wife hurried to Shangyang Palace. Yun Yuxi stepped forward and saluted:
"Good luck to your Majesty. After I received the news from the imperial guards, I rushed here without stopping. Now I am relieved to see that the third prince is safe and sound." Her face was filled with joy and relief, as if a huge stone in her heart had finally fallen to the ground.
"Thank you for your hard work. Everyone, please go out first. Since the third prince is fine, go back to the palace and rest. As for the third prince's poisoning, I will send someone to investigate it thoroughly." After giving the order, Emperor Suwen turned and left Shangyang Palace.
The Third Prince carefully supported Concubine Rong and went to her bedroom together. Afterwards, he quietly left the palace and came to the basement of Luo Mansion.
The Crown Prince of Northern Qi was arranged to stay in Sifang Pavilion. The Second Prince and the Fourth Prince sent the Crown Prince of Northern Qi back to Sifang Pavilion, ordered the guards to protect the Crown Prince of Northern Qi, and then returned to the palace.
In the Sifang Pavilion, the Crown Prince of Northern Qi was lying on the bed with a pale face. Wu Xi scolded him with some dissatisfaction.
"Prince, you must not drink alcohol anymore, otherwise it will affect your injuries. Why did you go to provoke the Regent today? You need to keep a low profile in Dayan."
"Foster father, I was indeed reckless today. Please forgive me. Today we are plotting against the Third Prince. Do you have any backup plans?"
"Don't worry, I have a backup plan. I have infected the Third Prince with a poisonous insect. The insect is still in the egg stage and no one can find it. If he dares to betray me one day, I will let him die in the burial place."
The Crown Prince of Northern Qi was in a good mood.
