After the door was pushed open, Ning Yue saw Gu Yu lying unconscious on the ground!
âMaster!â Ning Yue called out. She stepped forward to check on Gu Yuâs condition. His lips had already turned black. She hurriedly checked his pulse.
After checking, Ning Yue was shocked. Gu Yu had been poisoned!
It was the same as the emperorâs poison!
She remembered that Gu Yu had used a few acupuncture points on the emperor, but she had never practiced them. She was worried that she would make a mistake.
However, Gu Yuâs situation no longer gave her time to think. Every minute she thought about it would only put Gu Yu in more danger.
At the thought of this, Ning Yue took out a silver needle. She closed her eyes and recalled the acupuncture points Gu Yu used on the emperor.
After thinking for a while, she took a deep breath and inserted the needle into Gu Yuâs body. Soon, Gu Yu spat out a mouthful of black blood. When he opened his eyes, he struggled to sit up.
The first thing Gu Yu said after waking up was, âQuick, go find Jiang Ying! The emperor is in danger!â
When Ning Yue heard this, she understood the seriousness of the matter. She turned around and ran to Prince Jinâs residence.
She knocked hard on the door. Uncle Su quickly opened it. âMiss Ning, are you looking for our heir? Today, our prince andâ¦â
Before Uncle Su could finish speaking, Ning Yue interrupted him. âUncle Su, this is an emergency. Go and prepare the carriage. Hurry!â
With that, Ning Yue ran straight to the hall and shouted, âJiang Ying, come out!â
She had no choice. She had never been to Prince Jinâs residence. If she waited for Uncle Su to call for help, something might happen to the emperor.
Jiang Ying hurriedly ran out when he heard the commotion. âYueyue, did something happen?â
âQuick, my master said that the emperor is in danger. Go to my house to pick him up. Weâll talk on the way.â
By the time Ning Yue finished speaking, Uncle Su had already pulled the carriage out. Ning Yue pulled Jiang Ying into the carriage.
As Ning Yue was more anxious and worried that something would really happen to the emperor, she didnât notice that there were two more distinguished people in Prince Jinâs residence.
When the two of them heard Ning Yue shouting for Jiang Ying, they had already appeared.
They looked at Ning Yue in satisfaction, then watched as the carriage gradually disappeared from their sight.
âUncle Su, is this the Miss Ning you told us about?â Princess Jin asked.
Uncle Su smiled and nodded. âYes, Your Highness.â
âWhen we received the letter back then, His Highness and I thought that it was either Ning Qing or Ning Lan from the Generalâs Residence. One of them only knows how to cry when something happens, while the other only knows how to hide when something happens. They donât even have the backbone of a general. Fortunately, this Miss Ning isnât the same.â
âThis Ning Yue looks a thousand times better than them. Our son even said in the letter that Miss Ning is Doctor Guâs personal disciple. Look, I like this girl no matter what.â
Hearing the queenâs praise for Ning Yue, the prince laughed out loud. âYes! She looks quite like a mighty general!â
He had seen everything clearly. Just now, Ning Yue had pulled Jiang Ying into the carriage. This was not something an ordinary girl could do.
This skill and temper were good!
âSince weâre all back, why donât we find a time to visit Ning Yueâs house and the two children?â the queen asked.
âSure. Why donât we go tomorrow?â The prince immediately agreed.
He also wanted to see his two grandchildren, whom he had never met. He also wanted to know what it was like to be a grandfather.
âThis wonât do. Itâs too rushed tomorrow. We canât go empty-handed. We have to prepare a gift for him. I heard that Ning Yue brought her adoptive mother with her to the capital this time. Also, donât forget Divine Doctor Guâs personality. If we really forget Divine Doctor Guâs gift, heâll definitely throw a tantrum for a while. I wonât be able to stand his tantrum.â Wang Fei shook her head as she spoke.
âItâs already night time. Itâs not suitable for us to go out to buy anything. Letâs wait until we go shopping tomorrow to look at the gifts,â the consort said.
âDonât we still have some items in the storeroom? Why do we have to go out to the streets to buy them?â The prince asked in confusion.
âOh, what do you know, old man? Youâre always fighting and killing. The things in the storeroom are all old. If you want to give someone a gift, you have to give them new things. Besides, thereâs nothing suitable for children to play with in the storeroom.â The consort rolled her eyes.
âWhy not? Isnât there a small carriage made of wood? There are also some wooden swords. Arenât those for children to play with?â The prince didnât understand. There were clearly things to give away so why did they still have to buy new ones?â
