World-shaking First Daughter: Powerful Medical Princess

Chapter 128 - Turmoil

Chapter 128 Turmoil

“Miss, it is said that the altar was already in chaos. Fortunately, we have left quickly; otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to leave at this moment.”

After getting the news, Xinche was still terrified at the thought of the riotous scene.

“Send my order: nobody is allowed to get out of the mansion.”

“Yes.”

Su Muge sat in her room and suddenly thought of Xia Houmo’s words before he left for Xiangshan Mountain. He asked her to keep alive. Had he known that this matter would happen?

King Dingxi had risen in rebellion in the end. No matter what the result was, she could do nothing about it.

“Mumu, will your father be in danger?” Zhao had been restless after returning to Su Mansion with Su Muge. She felt guilty for ignoring Su Lun and Old Lady Su when they left.

“Mother, father and grandmother are both well protected by the guards. They’ll be fine.”

“Madam, Miss, Lord Su and Old Lady Su are back.” Meihua entered the room.

Hearing this, Zhao finally rested assured. “Mumu, you stay and take a rest in the room. I’ll take a look.”

“Okay.”

Su Muge couldn’t calm down for work, so she held little Wenmo and teased him in the room.

The little guy was growing up and becoming more adorable with his little and round face.

“Is our little Wenmo hungry? What about drinking some goat milk?”

“Yaya...” The little guy couldn’t speak yet and could only pronounce a few simple syllables. He liked to be held by Su Muge. Every time he was held by her, he would grin and chuckle; he would hold Su Muge with his fingers tightly, reluctant to let her go.

Because she got up too early in the morning, Su Muge was a little sleepy after playing with little Wenmo for a while.

So, she simply put little Wenmo on the bed and slept beside him without taking off her clothes.

The little guy was very well-behaved. After playing with Su Muge for a while, he was also sleepy and fell asleep soon after Su Muge closed her eyes.

“Miss, Miss, there is someone from the imperial palace ...”

When Xinlan hurried in and saw the two sleeping in bed, she held back her words.

Just as Xinlan ran in, Su Muge woke up. She opened her eyes lazily and rubbed her brows.

“What’s up?”

“Miss, there is someone from the imperial palace, asking you to enter the palace immediately.” Xinlan looked at little Wenmo, who was still sleeping, and said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Su Muge was completely sober. Why did they ask her to enter the palace at this time?! Were they pushing her into the fire?!

“Tell them that I am too frightened to go.”

“But, but ...”

“Miss Su’s voice is so energetic. I don’t think you are over frightened.”

Before Xinlan could finish her words, she heard a sharp voice in the room. Eunuch Yi walked into the room with several imperial guards.

“You, you can’t go in ...”

Eunuch Yi glanced at her coldly, making Xinlan dare not to continue.

“Miss Su, His Majesty asked me to personally take you into the palace. Miss Su, please come with me. You don’t want to wake up the sleeping child, don’t you?”

Eunuch Yi was wearing a stern look. If Su Muge refused to go, he would surely take her into the palace in an unacceptable way.

With a cold expression, Su Muge tucked the quilt for little Wenmo.

“I wonder why His Majesty wants me to enter the palace.”

Eunuch Yi paused and said, “His Majesty suddenly feels a little unwell and wants you to see him. Miss Su, please hurry up.”

Su Muge got out of bed and put on her shoes. “Let them out.”

Eunuch Yi looked at the imperial guards behind him, turned around, and walked out with them.

“Miss... is it too dangerous to go out at this time?” Xinlan stepped forward to help Su Muge dress up.

Su Muge smiled. “Do I have the right to refuse?” Damn this imperial society!

After dressing up, Su Muge picked up her medical kit and went out.

“Take care of the mansion.”

“Yes.”

Eunuch Yi took Su Muge onto the carriage and left for the imperial palace.

There were few people on the street; the turmoil at the altar scared the people from going out.

Eunuch Yi had been holding back his emotions just now. As soon as he got on the carriage, his face was covered with cold sweats.

The Emperor had been sent back to the palace, but his condition was very bad. It seemed as if he was to pass away anytime ... So, Eunuch Yi took the initiative to find Su Muge in Su Mansion to see if there was any hope.

It was a little dim in the carriage, but Su Muge could feel his nervousness from Eunuch Yi’s increasingly rapid breathing. It seemed that the Emperor’s condition was not good.

Just as the carriage was entering the Imperial Palace Street, a group of men in black suddenly jumped out from both sides and blocked the carriage’s way.

“Assassins!”

The imperial guards shouted and stepped up to fight with the men in black.

Su Muge lifted the curtain and found the number of men in black quite overwhelming. Moreover, they all had strong martial arts and peculiar moves. These imperial guards were not their opponents at all.

“Ah!”

The coachman of the carriage was stabbed into his heart and fell to the ground.

“These people are so presumptuous!” Eunuch Yi was also scared to death; he had no kung fu to protect himself.

Su Muge pulled out the dagger on her leg, found a chance to stab an unprepared man into his chest, and kicked him off the carriage.

She climbed out of the carriage, took off her shoes, and slapped hard on the horse’s butt.

The horse let out a loud neigh painfully, kicked its hoofs, and ran ahead.

Seeing the carriage running away, a man in black gritted his teeth to catch up. “Hurry up! Catch them! Don’t let them run away!”

“Yes.”

Su Muge felt so bumpy but she dared not to slow down.

“You are really awesome and are still struggling!”

A black figure flew out of the darkness and landed on the carriage roof.

He flicked his wide sleeves, and several poisonous snakes flew towards Su Muge.

Suddenly, Su Muge caught sight of several snakes rushing towards her. She was so frightened that she took the shoe in her hand to hit the snakes’ heads.

Damn it! These were all venomous snakes. Once she was bitten, the consequence would be unimaginable!

“Su Muge, hurry to give in! You can’t run away!” The man in black smiled insidiously and instantly moved to Su Muge’s side.

Su Muge only felt her whole body surrounded by a frozen air, and her limbs were frozen immediately.

The man’s face was hidden in the large hood. Even if she was so close to him, Su Muge couldn’t see his face.

“I thought you were awesome, but you are just so so.” The man proudly reached out to touch Su Muge’s face.

Su Muge shrank her pupils. When his hand was only an inch away from her face, she aimed the silver needle at her fingers at his eyebrows.

The man was unprepared and subconsciously reached out to block it. Su Muge raised the corner of her lips slightly and changed her aim to his palm.

“Ouch!”

The man was so painful that he let out a cry. When he came back to his senses, he reached out and wanted to resist.

“You’d better not move now; otherwise, the poison will spread even faster.”

The man in black narrowed his eyes. “Do you think a silver needle can scare me?”

“Can it scare you? Just look at your palm.”

The man in black looked down at his palm, and his face turned even gloomier.

His palm had already turned dark!

“What did you poison me?!” The man pinched Su Muge’s neck with a fierce posture of killing her.

“Don’t be excited. The more excited you are, the faster the poison spreads. You should keep calm, leave my carriage, and go back to study what the poison is.”

“Since I can detoxify, I’ll kill you now ... Um!” Before he could finish speaking, he felt a tingling pain in his heart.

“Look, I have told you not to be too excited. But you won’t listen to me.”

“Let’s wait and see!” Unwilling as he was, the man in black had to leave immediately to detoxify himself.

Seeing the man leave, Su Muge exhaled a sigh of relief secretly.

She sped up, hoping the palace would be safer than outside.

When they reached the palace, Eunuch Yi who was in the carriage had collapsed. He couldn’t walk steadily even if he was supported by a palace people.

“Eunuch Yi, where is His Majesty?”

Eunuch Yi managed to calm down, “Follow me.”

Xia Hourui was not in Yangyi Palace but was secretly sent to a small palace near the Cold Palace.

As Su Muge entered in, the palace was filled with imperial guards. But it was so quiet that only the sound of blowing cold wind could be heard.

“Where is His Majesty?” Eunuch Yi asked.

“His Majesty is still in the room.”

Eunuch Yi led Su Muge into the room, in which several imperial doctors were gathering and whispering. Seeing Su Muge coming in, they all fixed their eyes on her.

“Miss Su, His Majesty is in bed.”

Su Muge walked over.

Xia Hourui’s head was wrapped with gauze, and his complexion was terrible.

Su Muge reached out to take his pulse, which was extremely chaotic as if something was making a mess in his body.

“How did His Majesty become like this?”

Eunuch Yi sighed and told her the situation at that time.

“I was not with His Majesty at that time. I just heard from the imperial astronomer that His Majesty suddenly covered his chest and fell down when he walked down the stone steps.”

Although Xia Hourui was unwell because of poison, there was no problem with his heart and he had little possibility to get a sudden myocardial infarction. Judging from his current complexion, he was unlikely to be poisoned. Judging from his pulse, he seemed to have been affected by poisonous insects!

“Miss Su, what’s wrong... with His Majesty?”

Su Muge put on a stern look. She had little research on poisonous insects. And she needed further investigation to determine whether Xia Hourui had been affected by poisonous insects.

“His Majesty is likely to have been affected by poisonous insects. Eunuch Yi, please bring me some willow leaves.”

Hearing this, Eunuch Yi was startled and nodded repeatedly. “Okay.”
