Chapter 152: 给外祖父解毒

[Detoxifying the poison in Grandfather’s body]

Lu Yunluo didn’t expect the poison on Prince Chen’s body to come from this.

To be able to test the poison on his own body in order to save other people’s life.

Such breadth of mind and courage was something she would not be able to do. 

No wonder when she first met Prince Chen in the palace, she noticed that his face was a bit pale, however, she didn’t see that he was sick when they met at the banquet last time.

Lu Yunluo felt that one day she should help Prince Chen take his pulse. If she could cure Prince Chen’s illness, it would be considered as returning his favor.

Lu Yunluo’s gaze fell on top of the wooden box, since Prince Chen had sent the antidote, so she didn’t have to make it herself.

One more day’s delay, and maternal grandfather would suffer one more minute.

Thinking of this, she put the jade bottle into her arms and walked towards her maternal grandfather’s bedroom.

In Grandfather’s bedroom, she left a total of four people to guard there. 

Sister Zhou was inside looking after him

Two palace maids were on guard outside.

There was also one in the kitchen that was specifically in charge of the meals.

“There’s nothing unusual in these two days, right?” Ever since she found out yesterday that her Grandfather was poisoned instead of sick, she had instructed Sister Zhou that all food and water sent to Grandfather’s room would be poured out and not allowed to be consumed.

This Grandfather’s courtyard had its own small kitchen, and all the food was only personally taken care of by the people she had brought in.

“Your Highness, all the food that was sent or given in has been disposed of according to your instructions.” In fact, the people in the mansion knew that the Duke of State hadn’t eaten for days now, except for water.

Sending food over was just for show.

Lu Yunluo nodded her head, she was always assured of Sister Zhou’s work, “In these two days, has anyone else come?”

“The second and third masters have come, as well as the dukes and madams from each family, however, this old slave drove them all away according to your orders.” Speaking of this, Sister Zhou felt it was unworthy for the Duke of State.

What kind of brothers are these?

The time when Niang Niang hadn’t come yet, there wasn’t even anyone to wait by the Duke of State’s bedside, but now that Niang Niang is here, they all want to compete for the inheritance, and each one of them is competing to come and see the Duke of State again.

Lu Yunluo sat down beside her maternal grandfather, “All of you go out first. Without my permission, none of you are allowed to come in.”

“Yes!”

Soon, all the subordinates in the room retreated.

Lu Yunluo helped her maternal grandfather up, made the antidote given by Prince Chen into a powder, and fed it to her maternal grandfather to drink using the spiritual spring from the space too.

Then she took out a pair of silver needles and began to do the acupuncture treatment for her grandfather.

Her maternal Grandfather had been suffering from this poison for half a year.

If he didn’t apply needles to assist him, the toxin would definitely not be expelled cleanly.

Time passed for a long, long time.

Finally, the door to the bedroom creaked open, Lu Yunluo leaned against the door frame with a weak face, and on the floor behind her was a large pool of bloodstain.

Sister Zhou and Yin Shuang turned around and rushed forward to support her. 

She was fine just now, how did she turn into this in a moment?

Lu Yunluo smiled lightly at them, touched her stomach and said, “I’m hungry.”

As she said that, her stomach even grumbled a few times, particularly cooperative.

She hadn’t eaten again since she left the house this morning after breakfast.

Just now, when she was sticking the needles (during the acupuncture treatment), it took a long time and she had to concentrate very hard on it. 

She almost couldn’t survive.

“Yin Shuang, quickly go and get some food over for Niang Niang.” Sister Zhou helped Lu Yunluo sit down on one side.

Lu Yunluo leaned back as she closed her eyes and rested. 

Right now, she doesn’t even have the strength to speak.

Very soon, Yin Shuang made two dishes and a soup, then she brought them over. 

A plate of braised chicken pieces in soy sauce and a plate of braised duck pieces.

Besides that, there was a bowl of chicken soup.
