Chapter 523: Capsized in the Ditch

I can't help but have random thoughts in my heart, and it's always easy to get distracted when doing things.

In the end, Xuanyuan Yao couldn't resist the worries in his heart. He left the military camp on the third night after Xie Jin was assassinated and entered the city into Xie's mansion.

The housekeeper led him to Jinyuan. Xuanyuan Yao raised his eyes and saw Mrs. Xie with red eyes. His heart sank suddenly, "Madam."

"Yao Yao?" Mrs. Xie's eyes brightened when she saw him coming. She then wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and choked with sobs, "Why are you here?"

"Let me see Xie Jin, how is he?" Xuanyuan Yao turned to look in the direction of the inner room, "Has the assassin been caught? Who is so audacious, under the bright sky, that he dares to attack even the legitimate son of the Xie family?"

Mrs. Xie shook her head slowly: "Still investigating."

Xuanyuan Yao was silent for a moment, wanting to comfort her with a few words, but he swallowed the words silently. His son's life was at stake, and it was normal for a mother to be worried, and words of comfort would not do much.

He turned around and walked into the inner room. When he saw Xie Jin lying on the bed with a pale and haggard face, he couldn't help but frown.

The young master who used to be so bright and handsome in the past has become so haggard in just two or three days?

"Jin'er woke up once at noon." Mrs. Xie walked in and looked at her son lying on the bed with distressed eyes, "But the waking time was very short, and she couldn't eat for the time being. She only drank two sips of water."

Xuanyuan Yao frowned: "Has the remaining poison in the body been cleared?"

"I don't know." Mrs. Xie shook her head, "Mr. Chu just said to check the situation again. He will come over again tonight. If Jin'er can wake up at night, it may be nothing serious. If symptoms of fever and vomiting blood occur, it may still be possible. You have to think of other ways.”

Thinking of other ways?

Xuanyuan Yao felt weird and wanted to know what kind of poison he was poisoned with. Why couldn't even Chu Nanyi determine the symptoms? It stands to reason that Chu Nanyi's medical skills should be good, and he should also have many excellent detoxification pills in his hand. Doesn't he know whether Xie Jin's body has been completely cleared of the remaining poison?

However, Xuanyuan Yao then thought about it. There are so many strange poisons in this world that even doctors cannot see them all. Moreover, listening to Mrs. Xie's words, Xie Jin should not be in danger of his life.

"Your Majesty, can you stay here and take care of my young master?" The young man walked out of the inner room with water and asked uneasily, "The young master has been talking nonsense, and my wife has been guarding the young master for two days and two nights without a wink..."

Xuanyuan Yao turned to look at Mrs. Xie.

When she came in, she only noticed her red eyes and ignored her pale and tired face. Now she realized that Mrs. Xie also had a haggard and thin face, with cyan shadows under her eyes.

"Madam, please go and rest first." He said warmly, "I will take care of you here. If anything happens, I will let you know."

Mrs. Xie shook her head: "You still have things to do in the military camp, so how can you waste your time here?"

"It doesn't matter. I've already handed over the affairs. There won't be any problems for this one night."

Mrs. Xie hesitated for a moment: "Would it be too troublesome for you?"

"It's not troublesome." Xuanyuan Yao comforted, "Xie Jin and I are good brothers, and we should take care of him. Madam, you don't need to take it to heart."

Good brother?

Mrs. Xie's expression paused, and then she turned her head and glanced at her son lying on the bed nonchalantly, frowning slightly, her expression still unable to conceal her worry.

However, Xuanyuan Yao finally allowed her to leave temporarily and go back to take a rest after repeated persuasion.

Xuanyuan Yao sat in front of the bed, silently looking at Xie Jin who fell into a coma, and said to himself: "You, a monster, have actually fallen into such a situation. If you let those who have been offended by you see it, I’m not sure how happy it will be.”

Xie Jin naturally didn't respond.

After being tortured by the toxin for two days, he looked as if he was exhausted. Not only was his face completely white, but his lips were also a bit blue and white and dry.

The more Xuanyuan Yao looked at it, the more dazzling it became. How could he have tortured himself into this kind of virtue?

"Aren't you very powerful?" He frowned, "You are not afraid of anything, no one in the imperial city dares to mess with you...are you being slapped in the face now? The assassins dared to attack directly in front of your house, and they didn't take you seriously at all. Where is it?"

The maids in the room were all standing outside, listening to Xuanyuan Yao's words of worry or ridicule. They all stood with lowered eyebrows and eyes, as if they were invisible people.

Xuanyuan Yao's eyes fell on Xie Jin's dry lips. The more he looked at them, the more unpleasant they became. He turned around and ordered: "Bring me a glass of water."

After finishing speaking, he added: "Get another spoon."

A maid responded and quickly poured a glass of warm water and brought it over.

Xuanyuan Yao scooped some water with a spoon and brought it to Xie Jin's lips to feed him, but how could Xie Jin, who was in a coma, drink water? The clear water flowed down the corners of his lips, only a small half went into his mouth, and the rest flowed out.

Xuanyuan Yao frowned: "You don't know how to drink water?"

Xie Jin still didn't respond.

Xuanyuan Yao didn't know what he thought of, so he put the water glass aside and raised his hand to put on Xie Jin's wrist.

Well, the pulse is steady and strong, and there doesn't seem to be much sign of weakness.

Xuanyuan Yao raised his head and looked at Xie Jin's closed eyes, stretched out his hand to open his eyelids and took a look. In fact, he didn't know what he was looking at. Anyway, the doctor always looked, heard and asked in this way during the diagnosis. After watching for a while, Unable to figure out the reason, Xuanyuan Yao reached under Xie Jin's neck and pinched his neck: "A Jin."

Xie Jin fell asleep unconsciously.

Xuanyuan Yao's mind moved slightly, and his strong fingers somehow pinched Xie Jin's fragile neck. He exerted a slight force: "A Jin, if I exert a little force now, your life will fall into my hands." ”

After saying this, he suddenly realized that Mrs. Xie was not prepared for him at all. She just handed over her poisoned and comatose son to him, and then left?

If he had ulterior motives and wanted to harm Xie Jin, he could easily end his life now.

But soon, Xuanyuan Yao curled his lips.

Well, even if he really has ulterior motives, he can't be stupid enough to take action in other people's houses, otherwise Xie Jin's life will be sealed, and his own life may not last long.

"Why did you capsize in the gutter?" Xuanyuan Yao let go of his neck, brought the water cup over and placed it on the counter. He opened Xie Jin's mouth with one hand and fed him water with a spoon in the other hand. The Lord has left the important affairs of the government to you, so it would be better for you to just fall asleep and be unconscious. When the Lord comes back, you will definitely be punished for your inability to do things well."

He fed him water while talking. He was originally a military commander and the prince of Huainan. He had not served many people since he was a child. Even in the days when he was trained by Rong Yu's side, he only stayed close to listen to orders and was often called upon. He was ordered to grind, sweep the floor, and serve tea and water, but it was really his first time to serve an unconscious patient like this and he was inexperienced.

After the glass of water was finished, Xie Jin's front and pillow were wet with water.
