Chapter 213 Discovering the Night Scene and Fainting
Lu Wanning's eyes were full of love. She knew that her daughter had been reborn and had her own mission and choices. All she could do was support her daughter.
"Mother, Wan'er knows she was wrong and promises she won't sneak out like this time. Wan'er just wanted to see Qiuqin, but who knew Ye Jiuchen..." Dongfang Wan'er told Lu Wanning the whole story in detail.
“Then, the Ninth Prince is currently unconscious…” Lu Wanning looked at Dongfang Wan’er with a worried expression. She knew that her daughter had feelings for the Ninth Prince, and she was afraid that her daughter would be hurt because of this.
Dongfang Wan'er nodded and said, "Yes, that's why I was a little late. I'm back to get my things and I need to leave immediately."
"Okay, go ahead, and remember to let your mother know whenever you need to," Lu Wanning instructed.
“Okay…” Dongfang Wan’er said, and then quickly walked into the room.
After entering the room, she carefully took out the Tianshan Snow Lotus from her storage space.
This snow lotus is like a rare treasure, crystal clear, emitting a refreshing fragrance throughout the room.
It was much larger than the Tian Shan snow lotus that I had picked on the snow mountain before. Each petal was like a finely carved piece of jade, radiating a soft luster.
Dongfang Wan'er held her breath, gently wrapped the Tianshan Snow Lotus as if it were the most precious thing in the world, and then slowly put it into her medicine box.
"Mother, I'm leaving now. I may not be back for a long time. Ye Jiuchen's condition is not optimistic, and I must go back as soon as possible," Dongfang Wan'er said solemnly, carrying her medicine box.
“Go on…” Lu Wanning looked at her daughter, her eyes filled with reluctance, but she knew that her daughter had more important things to do.
She silently watched Dongfang Wan'er leave until her figure disappeared from sight.
Tiger followed with Little White...
Chaos reigned inside the Crown Prince's residence.
"Oh no, His Highness the Crown Prince is lying on the ground..." a maid cried out in alarm, her voice sounding particularly abrupt in the quiet of the early morning.
Last night seemed exceptionally long.
As night fell, the dignified Crown Prince lay motionless on the ground in the courtyard for an entire night.
That night, there should have been patrols and guards, but it seemed as if everyone had fallen asleep, completely unaware of the prince's ordeal.
Perhaps those mysterious men in black discovered him, but for some reason, they merely watched coldly without taking any action, leaving the prince to lie on the cold ground all night.
As the sky began to lighten with a faint gray glow, the servants started their day's work as usual, only to discover that the Crown Prince was lying on the ground in the courtyard.
In an instant, the mansion erupted into chaos.
"Quickly, go and fetch the imperial physician..." a steward-like man anxiously ordered.
"Quickly, quickly carry the Crown Prince back..." Several strong servants rushed over, carefully lifted Ye Jingchu, and ran towards the Crown Prince's palace.
In an instant, the entire Crown Prince's residence was bustling with activity, with a cacophony of footsteps and shouts.
Li Shuyao stood at a distance, silently watching everything, her eyes unmoved, as if the scene before her had nothing to do with her.
She scoffed inwardly, thinking, "Why didn't Ye Jingchu freeze to death? I didn't expect him to still be alive."
Seeing that Ye Jingchu was still alive, Li Shuyao found everything rather dull and decided not to bother with the commotion.
Inside the palace, Ye Jingchu managed to utter a weak sound, "Cough cough... water..." He felt his throat burning and his mouth extremely dry.
He gradually regained consciousness, his mind still somewhat hazy, and he instinctively called out.
"Water, water, hurry up!" His voice was hoarse and urgent.
Hearing the call, the maidservant hurriedly brought a cup of water, gently helped Ye Jingchu up, and fed him the water.
"Brother Jingchu, sob... How are you... sob..." Dongfang Mingzhu sat by the bed, tears streaming down her face. She had rushed over anxiously as soon as she heard that the Crown Prince's residence had summoned a royal physician.
If it weren't for her father's good connections, she wouldn't have known that her brother Jingchu had fainted in the courtyard.
She felt extremely sorry for him. In her opinion, Brother Jingchu must have suffered a great injustice. It must be because Li Shuyao and Li Yanran did not take good care of him that he suffered so much.
Nightfall was excruciatingly headache-inducing from the cries of the Oriental Pearl. He weakly said, "Mingzhu, please stop crying, I'm not dead yet..."
"Brother Jingchu, you're awake! Imperial Physician, Imperial Physician, come quickly..." Dongfang Mingzhu was so excited that her face was covered in tears, and she hurriedly called for the Imperial Physician to come over.
The imperial physician rushed over and, without the slightest delay, carefully examined Ye Jingchu. After a thorough examination using the four diagnostic methods of observation, listening, questioning, and palpation, the physician breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The Crown Prince has only caught a slight cold; there is nothing seriously wrong."
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"I knew it! Brother Jingchu is so healthy, how could anything happen to him? It must be those two women who didn't take good care of you!" Dongfang Mingzhu said indignantly, her eyes full of dissatisfaction with Li Shuyao and Li Yanran.
Ye Jingchu had no mind to pay attention to any of this. He was extremely agitated and his mind was still preoccupied with the mysterious woman in black from the previous night.
Who exactly is that woman? What did she do to me? Why am I so weak all over? And looking at all these people in the room, I feel a strange, intense desire, an urge to drain their blood.
Ye Jingchu was startled and struggled to control this terrible desire within him.
"Get out, all of you! I need to rest..." Ye Jingchu felt he was losing control. He yelled and screamed, his bloodshot eyes filled with rage, driving everyone out of the room.
"Brother Jingchu, what's wrong with you..." Dongfang Mingzhu noticed Ye Jingchu's unusual behavior. She felt that Brother Jingchu was different from usual tonight, and the fierce look in his eyes frightened her.
As Ye Jingchu looked at the Oriental Pearl Tower, his thirst for blood grew stronger, but then he suddenly remembered that the Oriental Pearl Tower was carrying his child.
He suppressed his inner urges and patiently said, "Mingzhu, you go back first. I need to rest now. I'll come see you another day, okay..."
"Alright, Brother Jingchu, I've reached marriageable age!" Dongfang Mingzhu was actually subtly reminding Ye Jingchu that she had reached marriageable age and it was time for her to marry him.
"Mingzhu, step back!" Ye Jingchu's last bit of patience was almost exhausted. His bloodshot eyes were fixed on Dongfang Mingzhu, revealing a chilling intimidation in his gaze.
"Ah... okay, Brother Jingchu, I'm leaving now!" Dongfang Mingzhu was quite frightened by Ye Jingchu's appearance. She mumbled a few words and hurriedly left the Crown Prince's residence.
