Chapter 374

Qiao Ruoyi looked fiercely at Xie Yun and said, “My husband just died and you said you wanted to marry me. What do you take me for?”

Xie Yun said, “Luo Wei’s last words before he died were that he hoped you could live well. Nichang needs a father!”

Qiao ruoyi held Nichang’s hand and ignored Xie Yun, bringing nichang onto the sedan chair.

Nichang obediently did not say a word as she got onto the sedan chair. However, she still lifted the curtain from time to time to look at Xie Yun behind her. “Mother, Uncle Xie’s wound seems to be torn again. His clothes are covered in blood.”

Qiao ruoyi said, “He deserves it!”

Back when Marquis an Yuan and Qiao Lui went to Xie Yun’s residence, Xie Yun only said that he was willing to take her as a concubine. In fact, Qiao Ruoyi could understand. Firstly, she and Xie Yun hated each other. Secondly, she knew her own identity.

Qiao ruoyi never blamed Xie Yun for not wanting to marry her at that time, but it was impossible for her to not Hate Xie Yun now.

If it wasn’t for Jiang Yu wanting to be his wife, Luo Wei wouldn’t have died so young.

He still wanted to marry her, it was simply a dream.

..

The Xie family was in Chang ‘an’s villa.

Lan Xin applied medicine on Xie Yun and said, “Master, marquis an Yuan was too harsh. But if you really want to marry miss ruoyi, you shouldn’t say it in such a charitable tone. Miss Ruoyi never wanted to marry you!”

“Back then, I told you that you would regret it, but you didn’t believe me.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Hearing Lan Xin’s words, Xie Yun frowned.

Lan Xin continued, “If you want to marry Miss Ruoyi as your wife, you should show your sincerity. You Shouldn’t say that you want to marry Miss Ruoyi as soon as her husband died. Miss Ruoyi and her husband have a deep love for each other. It would be strange if you didn’t get angry when you heard that!”

After Xie Yun finished applying the medicine, she put on her robe and said, “Come with me to the Qiao family.”

Lan Xin asked nervously, “Aren’t you afraid that an Yuan Hou will give you a few more lashes?”

Xie Yun said, “Of course not.”

..

Qiao Ruoyi returned to the courtyard before she got married. When she called Xiao Man out of habit, she realized that Xiao Man would never appear in front of her again.

Yan Yu went forward to support Qiao ruoyi and said, “Miss, please rest for a while. You haven’t slept for two days and two nights. If my son-in-law sees you like this, he will definitely not be at ease.”

Qiao Ruoyi’s eyes were bloodshot. After she closed her clothes and lay down, she seemed to have lost all her strength. Her face was pale as she lay on the bed.

That night, she had a high fever. When the imperial physician from the palace came over, he gave Qiao ruoyi a lot of medicine. However, Qiao Ruoyi was so dizzy that she could not even take the medicine.

Zheng Xiao could not help but be anxious. He thought of many ways but could not feed her the medicine.

When Little Nichang saw that Qiao ruoyi had fainted, she saw the imperial physician give Qiao ruoyi a needle. She huddled in Zheng Xiao’s arms and said, “Grandmother, mother’s needle hurts.”

Zheng Xiao said, “The injection is for your mother to wake up as soon as possible.”

Zheng Xiao remembered that after Qiao Ruoyi’s aunt passed away, she had not been so sad. Perhaps there was a saying that said that grief was no greater than death.

Ever since Qiao Ruoyi returned to Chang ‘an, she had been very haggard. However, the funeral was not over yet, so she had to hold her breath. Now that Xiao Man and Luo Wei had been buried in peace, it was no wonder that Qiao Ruoyi had become so ill.

The imperial physician was anxious. Even needles were useless. Seeing that Qiao Ruoyi’s fever was getting worse and worse, the medicine did not work. The imperial physicians racked their brains to write down the prescription, but it did not have much effect.

The white silk in the Hou mansion had not been removed. Qiao Ruoyi’s long hair was still covered with white velvet flowers. Her room was filled with a dead atmosphere.

Zheng Xiao was anxious. He held the hand of an old imperial physician and said, “Imperial physician, please save Ruoyi. She is so young...”

The imperial physician said helplessly, “Miss Qiao doesn’t have the energy to live anymore. The Qi in her body has dissipated. I’m afraid that she doesn’t have much time left...”

Zheng Xiao shook his head and said, “How could she? There’s still nichang. Her aunt’s life hasn’t been announced yet. How could she bear to die?”

Zheng Xiao walked up to Qiao Ruoyi and held Qiao Ruoyi’s hand. “Ruoyi, as long as you wake up, I promise you to give your aunt a life. Nichang is so young. Can you bear to see her without a Mother?”

“Ruoyi, wake up!”

Xie Yun, who was on the roof of Qiao Ruoyi’s house, frowned when he heard the words from below.

Lan Xin listened to the words from below and asked nervously, “Master, what should we do?”

Xie Yun said, “She will not bear to let go of Nichang.”

The imperial physician said that Qiao Ruoyi did not have much time left, so the members of the Qiao family in Chang ‘an all came to visit. Old Lady Qiao wanted to avoid the funeral, but when she heard that Qiao Ruoyi did not have much time left, she ignored her and came over with a warm filial piety.

Old Lady Qiao walked to Qiao Ruoyi’s side and looked at the pitiful nichang in Zheng Xiao’s arms. She sighed and said, “Sigh, how could God be so blind? It’s not enough that he took Luo Wei away, but he even took ruoyi away!”

Zheng Xiao said, “Mother, the imperial physician said that Ruoyi doesn’t want to live anymore. It can be seen how much pain Luo Wei has caused her after he passed away. It’s all because of Xie Yun!”

Old Madam Qiao held Qiao Ruoyi’s hand and said, “Ruoyi, quickly wake up. When you wake up, grandmother will personally go to his majesty and ask for your aunt’s life. Also, are you willing to let Nichang lose her mother at such a young age?”

When she held Qiao Ruoyi’s hand, old madam Qiao noticed that there was something wrong with Qiao Ruoyi’s nails.

There were streaks of blood on Qiao Ruoyi’s nails. Her nails were uneven and shockingly tight.

Old Madam Qiao opened Qiao Ruoyi’s tightly closed eyelids and looked at Qiao Ruoyi’s cloudy eyes. She said in shock, “Ruoyi is not sick, she must have been poisoned!”

“Poisoned?”Zheng Xiao said in shock, “The Miao region has very strict control over gu worms. There are less than five people who know how to use Gu worms now, how could anyone dare to use Gu Worms on ruoyi? Aren’t they afraid of destroying the entire Miao region?”

Old madam Qiao said, “I shouldn’t be wrong. It’s Gu Worms. When I accompanied the old marquis in the southwest, I saw the scene after being poisoned. I will write a letter to the chief of the Miao region and ask her to come to Chang ‘an as soon as possible!”

Zheng Xiao said, “It will take half a month for the Miao region to go back and forth to Chang ‘an, but I’m afraid Ruoyi won’t be able to hold on much longer!”

Qiao Ruoyi’s breathing was much less and her breathing was much less!

Old Madam Qiao sighed and said, “But there is no other way now. We can only send someone to use the thousand-mile horse to bring the chief to Miao. Otherwise, Ruoyi will also die.”

Zheng Xiao immediately ordered people to use the thousand-mile horse in the manor and wrote a very urgent letter. He handed it to the guards to go to Miao.

Xie Yun came down from the roof and entered the door, “Old Madam, Madam Hou.”

Zheng Xiao saw Xie Yun enter and frowned: “How dare you trespass into the manor? Where are the guards?”

Xie Yun said: “Madam Hou, don’t be anxious, I have a way to help fifth Miss Qiao remove the Gu, Why don’t you let me take a look at the Gu worm on fifth Miss Qiao’s body?”
