Of course, she wouldn’t tell Mu Xuexin about this. Mu Xuexin was not a physician, so she didn’t know the dream returning grass was colorless and odorless.
“Then what should I do?” Mu Xuexin almost collapsed to the ground and bit her lips tightly. “I thought Father would be with me for a few months more, but I didn’t expect…”
“In fact…” Yun Luofeng paused and continued, “even without this dream returning grass, he has only two months to live.”
Qi Su hadn’t spoken since he entered the room. He supported the trembling Mu Xuexin for fear that she couldn’t stand the blow.
“Master,” Qi Ling hugged Yun Luofeng’s legs and looked at her pitifully, “do you have a way to save the Emperor?”
Yun Luofeng gazed at the man lying in bed.
“He fell ill from overwork. It’s not a big problem. He would have been able to recover soon if he keeps taking spirit herbs, but…” Yun Luofeng paused, “someone replaced the heavenly spirit ginseng in his medicinal soup with marsh ginseng, so he didn’t recover, and even his body was worn down.”
Mu Xuexin forced himself to calm down and asked, “What’s the difference between the two kinds of ginsengs?”
“The difference is that the ginseng growing in a marsh is contaminated with the poison of the marsh, and it is difficult to distinguish between the two kinds of ginsengs. This poison won’t kill him immediately, but will gradually corrode his body.”
The heavenly spirit ginseng plus the dream returning grass! It was very clear that someone was trying to kill her father.
“Consort Qin, it must be her!” Except for this woman, Mu Xuexin couldn’t think of anyone else.
“Miss Yun,” Mu Xuexin suddenly knelt down in front of Yun Luofeng and begged bitterly, “since you know what illness Father has, you must have a way to cure him. Please save my father. As long as you save him, I will obey your orders for the rest of my life.”
Dignity? What was that? Was it as important as her father’s life?
She was willing to give her life for her father’s life, let alone her dignity.
Qi Su, seeing Mu Xuexin kneeling down, also hurriedly knelt down in front of Yun Luofeng. “Boss, please save His Majesty.” Since there was no outsider here, he didn’t call Yun Luofeng ‘Miss Yun’, but called her Boss.
Qi Ling blinked and also knelt on the ground. “Master, please help Sister Mu.”
Yun Luofeng looked at the three kneeling before her and turned her eyes to Mu Xuexin whose face was full of tears.
“I didn’t say I wouldn’t save him.”
Mu Xuexin was very glad to hear that. She looked up at Yun Luofeng gleefully, “Miss Yun, are you willing to save my father?”
“Saving him is saving myself.” Yun Luofeng paused and continued, “Besides, Qi Su and Qi Ling have both asked me to save him. How can I refuse it?”
For the sake of Qi Ling alone, she would save him.
“But the poison of the dream returning grass is working. Next, he will see the person he most wants to see and enjoy three days with that person. But after the three days, he will bleed from his nose and die,” Yun Luofeng stroked her chin and pondered, “so I have to detoxify him first.”
“Miss Yun, if you need any spirit herb, just tell me and I will bring it to you.”
Mu Xuexin’s face was filled with joy.
At first, she had no expectations of Yun Luofeng. Now, when she saw Yun Luofeng easily diagnose her father, and even knew what medicinal herbs he had taken, her heart was filled with hope.
