Chapter 196 Detoxifying Grandmother
Chapter 196 Detoxifying Grandmother
"Yes, uncle, father and mother, please don't underestimate this girl! Don't regret it if you don't accept her. And brother, please don't underestimate this little pill. Uncle has experienced it deeply. Don't you see that Uncle has become much younger?"
At Qi Wenyuan's reminder, everyone turned their gazes towards the uncle. They also said that the uncle looked a little strange these past two days. It turned out that he had become younger...
"this......"
"Ahem...Okay, since it's a gift from Yao'er to you, then just accept it. Won't there be a chance for you to show your abilities in the future?" Qi Huaixuan put down the teacup in his hand and said casually.
At this moment, the smile on the corner of his lips had already revealed his feeling of pride.
Seeing that his brothers had to accept the gift from his little niece with embarrassment after being persuaded by his uncle, he immediately reminded them with a sly smile that this pill was a good thing, and they soon found out.
Qu Jingyao then asked about her grandmother's condition.
"Well, let's go meet your grandmother." Qi Huaixuan stood up and took her towards the main courtyard.
The uncles behind him also stood up and took their leave, and were mysteriously pulled away by Qi Wenyuan.
Qi Yuyao and her daughter walked beside her towards the main courtyard.
Nanny Yan in the main courtyard opened the door and bowed quickly when she saw the visitor.
"This old servant greets His Majesty, the Second Madam, and the Fifth Miss."
"Well, let's go in and talk."
Qi Huaixuan strode into the room with his hands behind his back. He didn't turn to Nanny Yan until she closed the door. He said in a deep voice,
"Madame Yan is Jingle's daughter."
Upon hearing the prince's words, Nanny Yan's eyes, which were filled with worry, widened instantly.
"The princess's daughter... This old servant greets the young master. Woo woo... If the princess knew the young master had arrived, she would definitely be very happy. What a pity..."
Qu Jingyao looked at the elderly nanny in front of her, and felt an inexplicable bitterness in her heart. She stepped forward and helped her up.
"Jingyao meets Nanny Yan. Thank you for taking care of my grandmother."
Nanny Yan had not expected Qu Jingyao's obedience and respect for her.
With tears in her eyes, she bowed and said, "I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it. These are what an old slave should do."
Looking at the face in front of her that was very similar to the princess, Nanny Yan could no longer control her tears.
Qi Huaixuan sighed helplessly and asked Nanny Yan to keep the girl's identity a secret.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, this old servant saved it."
Liang pulled Qu Jingyao to the window of the inner room.
"Yao'er, this is your grandmother."
Liang looked at the pale princess lying on the bed, her voice trembling slightly, and her eyes instantly turned red.
The two sisters-in-law entered the Qi family one after another. They have been together for so many years and have never had a quarrel. Although she is the eldest princess of the late emperor, she is not the least bit pretentious.
Qu Jingyao patted the back of Liang's hand and comforted her softly.
"Don't worry, Second Grandmother, everything will be fine. The poison has been removed today, and Grandmother will wake up tomorrow at the latest."
"Really? That's great! Yao'er, you are truly the lucky star of the Qi family!"
Qi Yuyao standing by also nodded in agreement, without a trace of jealousy.
At this time, Nanny Yan brought an embroidered cushion and placed it beside the princess' bed. Qu Jingyao smiled slightly and nodded, then sat down and began to take her grandmother's pulse.
She communicated with Manman in the space and asked it what it could see.
"Well, this poison is not difficult to cure, but the antidote is hard to find. Master is waiting for Manman to make the antidote, it will be ready soon."
After Manlong finished speaking, Qu Jingyao finally breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that she could not cure the poison in her grandmother.
Qi Huaixuan and the others looked at her with furrowed brows nervously, and couldn't help asking:
"Yao'er, how is it? Is this poison easy to cure? Even if it can't be cured..."
"Grandfather, don't worry. This poison can be cured. Madam Yan, could you please bring a copper basin? I'll help Grandmother with her internal energy to enhance the potency of the medicine. Grandfather will then use the dagger to slit Grandmother's wrist to drain the poisonous blood."
Qi Huaixuan was suddenly stunned. He asked without thinking whether it would hurt her.
Liang's mother and daughter were also paying attention to this issue, but they didn't dare to ask it out loud just now.
"Don't worry, Grandpa. I'll be fine."
She did not tell her grandfather that the detoxification required the cooperation of someone with profound internal strength. Her body had been thoroughly adjusted before, and her internal strength at this time was unmatched by ordinary people.
Although she observed that her grandfather's internal energy was very strong, he was old and such consumption might be harmful to his health.
She asked her second grandmother and others to go wait in the flower hall outside. Nanny Yan had already prepared a copper basin and wanted to serve on the side, but was persuaded by the prince to go away.
This detoxification scene is not something that ordinary people can bear, so they just let them leave.
"Master, the antidote is ready. I also have this spiritual spring to help my grandmother recuperate. Drinking it together will help alleviate the strong effect of the medicine."
"Grandpa, please help Grandma up first. After Yao'er is seated, you can put this antidote and the potion in the porcelain bottle into Grandma's mouth."
"Okay, Grandfather, I'll listen to you."
As he spoke, Qi Huaixuan easily helped the person sit up. Qu Jingyao nimbly sat cross-legged behind her grandmother. After straightening her body, he nodded to his grandfather, indicating that he could take the medicine.
Qi Huaixuan's hand holding the pill trembled slightly as he brought it to his wife's mouth.
Looking at his wife's pale face and purple lips, his heart ached. He quickly put the pill into his mouth and drank the medicine along with it.
He didn't feel relieved until his wife's throat rolled.
"Yao'er, your grandmother took the medicine."
There was endless surprise in his words, and he looked at Qu Jingyao like a child.
"My grandfather would place my grandparents' arms on the copper basin and make a small cut on their wrists."
She instructed carefully. Qi Huaixuan clenched the dagger in his hand, glanced at his wife, and then hardened his heart and slashed her wrist.
In an instant, a stream of black blood dripped from his wrist into the copper basin. As Qu Jingyao practiced her skills, the pill took effect faster and had already circulated throughout his body. The black blood on his wrist also started to flow down drop by drop and then flowed down unimpeded.
Qi Huaixuan watched the black blood quickly overflowing the bottom of the copper basin, and the pain in his heart surged up. There was a thin layer of sweat on the foreheads of his wife and granddaughter. He clumsily took the handkerchief and wiped them off.
His wife and Yao'er's faces became paler and paler, with more and more beads of sweat on their foreheads. He felt inexplicably nervous.
"Yao'er, why don't you let your grandfather come over instead?"
At this time, Master Li came rushing in after hearing the news. Nanny Yan saw that he was the apprentice of the miracle doctor, so she let him in.
Li Xuan ignored etiquette and walked quickly towards the inner room.
"Your Highness, you can't..." Li Xuan's anxious voice came.
