925 Injury (6)
Luo Tan stood at the door angrily. She looked a little haggard, and there were dark circles under her eyes. At this moment, she looked at Gao Yang as if she would not give up unless she got an explanation from him.
Gao Yang was coming back to refine medicine. The alchemy room was in his mansion, and there were many herbs. The Gao mansion and Prince Rui’s mansion were not far away, so he came back to refine medicine. Unexpectedly, as soon as he returned, he was questioned by Luo Tan.
The maid beside Luo Tan looked at Gao Yang apologetically. On the morning of the royal hunt, she asked Luo Tan to stay away from it according to Gao Yang’s instructions. Unexpectedly, Luo Tan snuck out and happened to see Gao Yang walking among the officials.
To Luo Tan, this was a little unacceptable. If Gao Yang was just a doctor, it did not matter if he was in the Daliang Dynasty or Ming Qi. However, he was clearly the minister of defense of the Daliang Dynasty, but he became an imperial physician in Ming Qi. In Luo Tan’s eyes, he was no different from a spy from an enemy country.
Luo Tan originally had a good impression of Gao Yang. Although he had some shortcomings, he usually took good care of her. Now that the person taking care of her had become a bad person, Luo Tan found it very unacceptable.
At this moment, Gao Yang was overwrought about Xie Jingxing’s injury. If it were in the past, he would definitely explain to Luo Tan nicely, but now, he was really running out of time. He thought that Shen Miao must be feeling terrible now. She was alone in a foreign country, and her husband’s life was on the line. Perhaps it would be good to have a sister by her side. He said to the servant beside him, “Tell her. I’ll go in first. No one is allowed to enter.” Then, he walked to the alchemy room.
Luo Tan originally thought that Gao Yang would explain his difficulties. After all, she still did not believe that Gao Yang would do such a despicable thing. She did not expect Gao Yang to ignore her. She said, “Hey, what do you mean? Explain it to me. What exactly…”
“Miss Luo.” The servant beside Gao Yang quickly stopped her and said, “Actually, the situation is complicated now. Something happened to Prince Rui and he needs Young Master to treat him.”
Luo Tan was stunned. “Prince Rui? Isn’t that my brother-in-law? What happened to him?”
The servant wiped his sweat. “It’s a long story…”
On the other side, Shen Miao lay in front of Xie Jingxing’s bed. She suddenly blinked and sat up.
After taking a short nap, she felt much better. She turned to look at the man on the bed. His eyes were still closed, as if he was asleep. Seeing that he was not in danger now, Shen Miao was relieved. However, her heart was in a mess.
Shen Miao felt that ever since she was reborn, her life had been stable. Because she had the experience of her previous life, she hardly made any mistakes. It was rare for her to be forced to a dead end. However, this was indeed the first time in this life that she had felt the feeling of being powerless.
Firstly, she did not know medicine, and secondly, she knew nothing about detoxification. All she could do was take out three Guiyuan Pills. Shen Miao was usually in control of everything and was now not used to placing all her hopes on Gao Yang. She slowly reached out and held Xie Jingxing’s hand, as if this would make her feel at ease.
Uncle Tang came over to deliver some tea and snacks to Shen Miao. Shen Miao did not rest well and looked haggard. Uncle Tang said, “Madam, eat something. It’s very tiring to take care of Master like this.”
Shen Miao thanked him and suddenly thought of something. She hesitated for a moment and asked, “Uncle Tang, when His Highness first arrived in Long Ye two years ago, was he also like this?”
There was another reason why Xie Jingxing returned to Long Ye two years ago. On the battlefield in the northern border, there were people planted by Emperor Wen Hui in the Xie army. Those people wanted to take his life. Xie Jingxing escaped death, but he did not escape serious injuries. It also seemed to be a life and death situation. At that time, it was fortunate that Gao Yang was around. Otherwise, there would not be Prince Rui.
Uncle Tang was stunned. He glanced at Xie Jingxing on the bed and said with a reminiscent tone, “Indeed, two years ago, Master was also sent back to Long Ye like this. Back then, Young Master Gao also said that there was nothing he could do. In the end, Master survived. It’s really a miracle.”
