Chapter 152: Celebration
Chapter 152: Celebration
Looking at Li Jingyang lying on the bed, his face pale, Lin Rusi felt a pang of sadness.
In his past life, he had heard about this, but he didn't know how the man responded. Looking at his expression, he knew that the man was in great pain, but he was helpless to do anything about it.
I couldn't help but feel guilty.
"Your Highness, you've been waiting here for so long. Why don't you go back and rest? We'll send someone to let you know immediately if anything changes here."
The person next to him spoke cautiously.
"I……"
Lin Rusi still felt uneasy after hearing this.
They refused the offer at that time.
"I'll wait here. If you feel tired, go back and rest. Besides, you two are already injured, so you can't overexert yourselves." After arranging things for Wanqi and Wanxia, Lin Rusi finally felt relieved.
Looking at Li Jingyang in front of him, he also felt somewhat worried.
Only then did he recall what had happened in his previous life.
At that time, she had already married Li Zeyan and had heard about the assassination attempt.
But apart from knowing that he eventually recovered, there seems to be no other news.
What should we do?
"Your Highness, you have been guarding here for a long time. I will stay here. Your Highness should go back and rest first. Otherwise, the Prince will feel sorry for you when he wakes up and sees how hard you have worked."
Ye Qing then spoke.
Looking at Lin Rusi in front of him, who seemed to be working tirelessly without rest, he felt a little worried.
The prince is still unconscious. If something happens to Wang Fei, they cannot bear that responsibility.
"Ye Qing, you've come at the right time. I have something I need your help with."
Lin Rusi spoke directly at this moment.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Ye Qing perked up.
"Your Highness, please feel free to give us any instructions. We will do our best to assist you."
“These days I’ve seen that the imperial physicians seem unable to find a cure. I want you to leave the palace immediately and investigate this matter.”
"This……"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qing hesitated.
Without the prince's orders, they dared not leave easily.
"Ye Qing, I know you value rules, but I won't be at ease until this matter is resolved. You must do as I say so that we can find an antidote for this poison."
Ye Qing thought about it carefully and felt that Lin Rusi was right.
Although I had some hesitation, I still agreed.
He quickly led his men out of the palace to investigate the matter.
The next morning, the Empress herself came to visit Lin Rusi.
"Rusi, you don't need to worry too much. We have already arranged for the best doctor to examine him. He should wake up soon."
Looking at Lin Rusi in her current state, the Empress felt a pang of pity.
They had only just gotten married. If something really happened to Li Jingyang, what would Lin Rusi do then?
"Your Majesty, I understand everything you're saying. Don't worry, I will take good care of myself."
After Lin Rusi finished speaking, she comforted the Empress.
"The Empress is right. My brother has always been lucky. How could these small fry possibly hurt him? You don't need to worry too much."
The emperor and empress both came to comfort him personally.
Lin Rusi nodded as well.
“I understand all of this, but I feel uneasy as long as the prince doesn’t wake up… So much time has passed, and we still haven’t found an antidote.”
Even after thinking about this, I still felt nervous.
"Alright, I heard you've been keeping watch here for several days now. How can this go on? If you ruin your health, won't he blame me, his older brother, when he wakes up?"
The emperor's tone at this moment also carried a hint of reproach.
However, what he said was just words of concern.
After hearing this, Lin Rusi finally nodded.
Only by fully resting and recuperating can we uncover the person behind this.
After being persuaded by the Emperor and Empress, they finally returned to the side hall to rest.
At this moment, Ye Qing also left the palace with his men.
The emperor did not stop it after learning about it.
We must find out who's behind this, or they'll all be uneasy.
Li Zeyan was lying on a soft couch, with a servant kneeling in front of him.
"King Jinglie is currently unconscious, and the identity of the assassin has not yet been determined."
Sure enough, after hearing what his attendant said, Li Zeyan's expression also showed some excitement.
"Are you telling the truth?"
Li Jingyang always looked down on him, and now that he finally got to see him, he's ended up like this.
I couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Upon hearing this, the attendant quickly nodded.
"What your subordinate said is absolutely true."
"Great! That's wonderful! I just hope he never wakes up this time, so that no one will dare to be superior to me from now on."
His eyes were filled with ferocity.
He didn't show any more leniency just because Mo Jingyang played his own uncle.
His concubines were happy for him when they heard this.
He felt that as long as Li Jingyang was eliminated, the Third Prince would be one step closer to the throne.
"Congratulations, sir. You've finally achieved your goal. This time, you must make Li Jingyang pay the price."
The favored concubines then hurriedly came up to curry favor with them.
Upon hearing this, Li Zeyan's smugness became even more apparent. He then generously bestowed many gifts upon his concubines.
"Such a wonderful thing! I must celebrate properly. You should all go today. Invite all the geishas from Tianxiang Pavilion!"
Li Zeyan was lustful.
Now that such a great thing has happened, he naturally has to celebrate properly.
That's why I'm thinking of inviting all the dancers to my mansion. It will be a lively and festive occasion with singing and dancing.
Lin Ruqin stood to the side, and after hearing these words, she never expected Li Zeyan to be so outrageous.
If the emperor knew about this, he would surely blame them, but to everyone's surprise, Li Zeyan remained unmoved.
Although he didn't care, it wouldn't be good if this matter affected him.
Left with no other choice, they had to step forward and offer their advice.
“Your Highness, although I know that Li Jingyang’s injury is a good thing for you, if the Emperor and the Empress find out about this lavish celebration, they will definitely blame you.”
Lin Ruqin tried to persuade him helplessly, but Li Zeyan didn't take it seriously at all.
"So what? No matter what, my royal uncle has fallen to this state. I am their own son. Would they really favor an outsider?"
Thinking of this, Li Zeyan's face became even uglier. He couldn't understand why this woman always had to go against him.
But Lin Ruqin insisted on her own opinion.
