Marry a Duke

Chapter 239: Changing Face

For ten consecutive days, there was no news from Doctor Hua.

Gaomian was sent out temporarily.

Although Wei Xuan didn't say anything, Fu Ran knew that Gao Mian had gone to see Doctor Hua.

I heard that the antidote has been found, but the process of obtaining it is very complicated and dangerous.

Doctor Hua and the people he brought with him might be able to get the antidote intact.

In case you anger the other party, he will destroy the antidote.

All previous efforts will be wasted.

Bi'an did not appear again, and Jinzhao replaced Gaomian's position.

Wei Xuan's physical condition became more and more worrying, so the Imperial Medical Bureau sent two imperial physicians to stay in the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion. The emperor was also afraid that Wei Xuan would have a sudden attack of the disease and die.

The case of the Salt Inspector has been almost investigated, and all those who should be convicted have been convicted.

The Duke of England was also found guilty. Even if he pointed out the eldest princess, it would be useless. Without direct evidence, the eldest princess was still safe and sound. The Duke of England also changed his testimony and admitted that he was the one who did it.

The Duke of England's title was stripped and he was fined for three years' salary.

The remaining dozen or so people who confessed were all sentenced to exile.

Chi Yang's condition was slightly better, so he went to the Duke of Wei's Mansion and met Wei Xuan.

"How is Brother Wei?" Chi Yang and Wei Xuan were old acquaintances, but Chi Yang was not a Beijing official. Later, he was highly valued by the emperor and transferred to be the Salt Inspector, so he traveled around the country and spent very little time in Beijing.

"It's okay." Wei Xuan closed his eyes and rested.

"It doesn't look like it's okay." Chi Yang couldn't hide his worry in his eyes, "Brother Wei, do you know what people outside are saying?"

"Hmm?" Obviously, Wei Xuan was not very interested.

"People outside are saying that the Duke of Wei may not have much time left. The civil and military officials in the court have not seen you for a long time. You stay at home all day, and there are imperial doctors on duty. I'm afraid you are already on the verge of death."

Chi Yang asked the imperial physician, but the physician just shook his head.

They were also helpless.

The Duke of Wei's situation was sometimes good and sometimes bad, but the bad times were more frequent.

They had no other choice. The poison was too tricky and they had no way to deal with it.

"The rumors are true. I am indeed a dying person. Look, I can't even get out of bed now."

Having said that, Wei Xuan's expression was too calm.

His complexion is a little bad.

If he does this, people will only mistakenly think that he is seriously ill.

"Wei Xuan, I heard that if you are poisoned by this kind of poison, you won't live that long. With your ability, it is impossible for you to just wait for Hua Mo to send the antidote." Chi Yang also knew Hua Mo.

Hua Mo is a strange person. Although he cures illnesses and saves lives, he has a lot of rules and regulations. The people he saves must pay a certain price.

Therefore, even though people were saved by him, few were truly grateful to him.

He doesn't need others to be grateful to him.

Chi Yang was also saved by Hua Mo back then. He was pierced through the chest by a hidden weapon and was close to death.

Hua Mo was indeed very capable, as he snatched him back from the hands of the god of death.

"I'm not a doctor, what can I do?" Wei Xuan still looked half dead.

Chi Yang was a little anxious.

"We have to think of a way. Hua Mo found the antidote, but there is no way to bring it back? I will go and ask the emperor to send more people and bring the antidote back." Chi Yang almost got up and went to the palace to meet the emperor.

Wei Xuan kept the person.

"Why rush? If we send someone now, it will take more than a month to go back and forth. Who knows, I might be dead by then."

He speaks whatever he wants, without fear of frightening others.

Fu Ran is here, coming in with medicine.

She calculated the time every day to feed him medicine.

There aren't many medicines left by Doctor Hua.

She had already written a letter to tell Doctor Hua that if the antidote could not be delivered in time, could he prescribe another medicine to continue controlling the poison in Wei Xuan's physical strength.

"Master Chi..." Fu Ran greeted him, holding the medicine in one hand, sitting on the edge of the bed naturally, and speaking to Wei Xuan in a soft voice, "The temperature of the medicine is just right, drink the medicine first, and then talk to Master Chi."

As she said that, she started feeding the medicine.

Chi Yang looked at Wei Xuan in astonishment as he saw him becoming increasingly weak.

It was clear that he was in a better spirit just before Madam Wei came in. Why did he look even more miserable as soon as Madam Wei entered?

Chi Yang knew Wei Xuan before he became Duke of Weiguo.

At that time, Wei Xuan was just the second son of the Duke of Wei's Mansion. He lived a free and unrestrained life and was indeed wild and flamboyant outside. Over the years, he had shouldered too much and was no longer the Wei Xuan we knew before.

Chi Yang knew that people would change, and the Wei family had undergone a great change. If he did not change, how could he support the Wei family?

How to keep the title of Duke of Weiguo.

Fu Ran fed Wei Xuan the medicine mouthful by mouthful, and considerately wiped the corners of Wei Xuan's lips with a handkerchief.

"What do you think? Do you want to ask Imperial Doctor Hu to come over?" It was Imperial Doctor Hu who was guarding the mansion today.

If he feels uncomfortable, Doctor Hu can give him a few injections to relieve his pain.

In fact, it is to paralyze the acupuncture points all over his body so that he doesn't feel too much pain.

The pain is impossible to remove.

"No need." Wei Xuan shook his head. "If you feel uncomfortable, we can talk about it later. What about Wuyou?"

"Playing with Nian'er." Wuyou is already old enough to play with others. The one who is slightly older than her in the family is Wei Nian. Wei Nian also likes Wuyou, and they play together every day.

With a companion, both of them are easy to take care of.

Adults just need to stand by and take care of their needs.

Recently, Fu Ran often asked Lan Yin and Wei Lin to bring Nian'er and Wuyou to Qingfuyuan to accompany the old lady. The old lady was in a state of anxiety all day long. If time went on for a long time, something would really happen.

The two juniors in front of her attracted her attention, which relieved the situation a little.

"Yeah." Wei Xuan glanced at Chi Yang calmly, "Master Chi, don't you have something else to do?"

This is to drive people away.

Fu Ran looked at Chi Yang for a while, picked up the bowl and stood up.

"Master Chi, are you leaving?"

Chi Yang had a complicated expression. Was he going to leave or not?

He had more to say, but Wei Xuan clearly wanted to drive him away.

"Brother Wei, take a good rest. I will come to see you tomorrow." Chi Yang nodded.

Fu Ran was about to send Chi Yang out when Wei Xuan asked her to call Xiao Ningzi.

"You stay." Wei Xuan said.

Chi Yang's expression became even more intriguing.

It seems that Wei Xuan has developed different feelings towards the wife he had to marry.

That's fine too.

Wei Xuan's ex-wife came and left in a hurry until her death. They did not develop any feelings for each other, and instead, she made Wei Xuan wear a big cuckold.

At that time, Wei Xuan forced himself to endure it.

Otherwise, given his nature, he would go on a killing spree.

It's a good thing if someone can win his heart.

I just hope that this disaster won’t defeat him.

"He's a guest. This is very rude." Fu Ran whispered, but did not insist. As a woman, it was not convenient for her to send the male guest out.

As the wife of Duke Weiguo, she really doesn't need to do these.

"I have a headache." He closed his eyes and whispered.

Looks pitiful.

Fu Ran didn't feel comfortable saying anything to him in a harsh tone.

Sit on the edge of the bed and press his forehead and temples to relieve his headache.
