Xu Yun woke up, stretched out his slightly trembling hand, grabbed his father's hand, and a tear slipped from his eye.
"..." Lord Zhenguo resisted the urge to frown.
Xu Yun's eyes slowly turned and looked at everyone in the room.
Seeing so many people surrounding him, he showed a forced smile and said, "Everyone has come to see me off."
Just when he was about to wake up, he heard what Doctor Qiu said about him being poisoned.
And he knew very well what condition his own body was in at this time.
Hearing the word "send", Duke Zhenguo's eyebrows moved. Before Doctor Qiu could speak, he asked: "Since you know the danger, why don't you overestimate your ability to stand in front of me? Aren't you just seeking death?"
"This is what you should do for the son of man... When you see that your father is fine, your son can rest assured." Xu Yun looked weak, tears flashing in his eyes: "You always say that I am useless, but this time my son finally did something.
It’s a useful thing…”
"It's useless! I worked so hard to raise you, but I didn't ask you to shield me from the knife! Otherwise, wouldn't it be better for me to just create an iron shield?"
Xu Yun couldn't help but feel aggrieved.
He is like this, why can't his father be gentler to him?
When he noticed the pain radiating from all parts of his body, the bad premonition in his heart became stronger, so he asked the miracle doctor Qiu in a dumb voice: "May I ask the miracle doctor... how long will it take?"
Doctor Qiu: "Two quarters of an hour——"
Two...two quarters of an hour?!
Xu Yun felt cold... Isn't this too rushed?
I'm afraid it won't be enough for him to arrange his last words and funeral arrangements!
"It only takes two-quarters of an hour for the medicine to be cooked," Divine Doctor Qiu said again.
"...?" Xu Yun's expression was stunned.
Duke Zhen Guo shook off his hand and cursed: "Look at how coward you are! It's just an injection, you won't die!"
"But... didn't you say that your son was poisoned?"
"It was poison." Doctor Qiu said: "But it is not an incurable poison, and the poisonous needle was taken out in time, so there is no serious problem."
Xu Yun still didn't believe it: "Then why do I feel pain all over my body, difficulty breathing, and a vague feeling of numbness around the wound?"
"..." Doctor Qiu thought for a while and said, "I must be scared."
There is only one explanation.
"A needle-prick turned into a fucking wound on you?!" The old man became angrier as he listened - how could Xu Qiwei have given birth to such a useless son!
Xu Yun looked calm, as if it was indeed not that painful...
Isn't this his first time being poisoned? Isn't he inexperienced?
Looking at his frail-looking father standing there while he was lying on the couch, he suddenly felt ashamed and quickly sat up.
"Okay, after you drink the medicine, go back to sleep!"
Xu Qiwei was too lazy to pay attention to his second son anymore. He said to King Yan, "Your Majesty, sit down for a moment." Then he took Yun Liu back to the bedroom to talk alone.
After Doctor Qiu left, King Yan went to the courtyard to wait for the Duke of Zhen.
"Second uncle——"
There was no one else in the room. Xu Mingshi came to the couch and said in a sighing tone: "You know I'm still alive this time, right?"
Xu Yun sighed self-deprecatingly and nodded.
Isn't it?
It's better to be alive...
Just now, when he really thought that he was not going to die soon, he was really scared.
It was also at that moment that he suddenly felt that he still had many things to do, many things to say, and many people he wanted to meet...
"The second uncle will only die today, let's live a good life from now on." Xu Mingshi sat down by the couch and patted his second uncle on the shoulder and said.
Seeing his nephew's young and mature appearance, Xu Yun nodded shamefully.
The uncle and nephew sat in silence for a while. Seeing that his nephew had no intention of leaving, Xu Yun couldn't help asking: "Aren't you going back to sleep?"
"The fire has just been put out, so I won't go back." The boy grinned at him, his eyes red, but full of smiles: "Grandpa is awake, and I can't sleep either."
Too happy to sleep.
Xu Yun also smiled.
So does he.
When the old man woke up, everything was fine.
Not only because the old man is the backbone of the family, but also because - in their Xu family, no one can be missing, and no one can survive without them.
"Don't tell me, this is more like a vigil on New Year's Eve." Xu Yun said with a smile: "We are celebrating the New Year tonight."
He may not be in such a mood during the Chinese New Year——
When Xu Mingshi heard the word "New Year", he didn't know what he thought of and suddenly stood up.
"What's wrong?" Xu Yun asked.
"I have to write a letter...tell Xu Mingyi about this!"
Xu Yun half-joked after hearing this: "The letter arrived just a few days earlier than us, why not give your sister a surprise?"
"That's not possible." Xu Mingshi walked out of the cubicle quickly as he spoke.
What's so surprising about this kind of thing? Tell her as early as possible so that she can feel at ease as soon as possible. This is more important than anything else.
There is writing and ink on the desk outside. The boy spreads paper, polishes ink, and can't wait to start writing.
…
On the other side, Zhen Guogong learned from Yunliu the big and small things that happened during his poisoning——
In fact, when I first woke up, I had already heard Qin Wu say it roughly once. As for why he had to ask Yun Liu again, the reason is also obvious.
After explaining several important matters to Yunliu, Duke Zhen Guo looked through the half-open window lattice at the figure waiting in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, and said, "Please come in and talk, Your Majesty."
Yunliu responded "Yes" and asked again: "It's almost dawn, do you want to ask someone to bring some breakfast?"
The general was in a coma for many days, and all he ate was soup and water, so his stomach must have been extremely empty.
The Duke of Zhen Guo nodded: "Okay, I'll prepare an extra copy, just in time to invite the prince to come with me."
Yun Liu responded and left immediately.
After eating five drawers of steamed buns, three bowls of gorgon millet porridge, and several plates of seasonal side dishes, the Duke of Zhen put down his pair of chopsticks, wiped his mouth, and said, "The miracle doctor told me not to eat too much.
Let’s just eat these with a little cushion first.”
King Yan silently looked at the empty dishes on the table, and it could be seen that the general was indeed very restrained.
He was already full, and he was just accompanying me, so he put down his spoon at this time.
Soon someone removed the dishes and replaced them with tea.
At this time, the sky outside was already bright, but because there had just been a fire in the courtyard next door, although the fire had been extinguished, there was still smoke surrounding it, so it felt a bit chaotic.
Yun Liu simply closed the window and stepped back.
"...I have heard my two men say that it is thanks to the prince's presence during this period, otherwise even if I were to wake up, I am afraid that the situation would not be like today."
The word "military morale" is very important. During the Eastern Yuan Dynasty, if the King of Yan was not in charge, if someone accidentally took advantage of the situation, turmoil would inevitably occur.
"General, you have promoted me." King Yan said with a smile: "General, Ji Ren has his own destiny, and Miss Xu from your noble family is in the capital to deal with it well and deliver the antidote in time."
As soon as his granddaughter was mentioned, the old man's face showed a smile: "Have you met my granddaughter?"
