Chapter 212: The Person at the Doorway

ed. Wasn't he unwilling to let her take this risk because his mother concubine had died from complications during childbirthI have to say, Mo Yunjing's attitude made An Xuetang particularly satisfied,...An Xue Tang bent down to tuck the blanket around Mo Yun Jing, and as she spoke, "I'm going to the kitchen. I'll make some medicinal porridge for Ah Jing. He hasn't eaten in a long time, he'll definitely be hungry when he wakes up."

"Just have the cooks in the military camp prepare something for Uncle Five. You don't need to go there yourself."

An Xuetang shook her head, "That won't do, I always have to personally prepare Fifth Uncle's medicinal meals to feel at ease."

Mo Jun Yi didn't know how it happened, he pursed his lips and suddenly mumbled, "Woman, if I get sick in the future, will you take care of me like this too"

"... "

An Xue Tang turned her head in surprise to look at him. Mo Jun Yi quickly averted his face, "Forget it, I didn't say anything. If you're going, hurry up and go. I'll stay here and watch Wu Shu."

An Xue Tang smiled and touched his head, "Silly boy, I hope you'll never be the one needing my care. But if by any chance you ever do need it, I naturally wouldn't trust anyone else to take care of you."

Mo Junyi's mood inexplicably brightened. He blushed and cleared his throat, "I don't need your care."

An Xuetang chuckled, "Alright then, if you don't want me to look after him, but I do. My little Ziling is so well-behaved, how could I bear to let anyone else take care of him"

After that, Mo Junyi's expression clearly became excited again. But the next second, he heard An Xue Tang say, "No matter what, my son Ziling has called me 'mother' once. How could a mother not take good care of her son"

"!!"

Mo Junyi widened his eyes, "Woman, you actually took advantage of me! That time... that time I was forced to do it. I had no choice but to call you 'mother' in order to get rid of my fifth uncle's rival!"

An Xue Tang chuckled, "Well then, regardless of the reason, I truly believed it at the time."

After finishing her sentence, An Xue Tang didn't give him a chance to explain and quickly ran out of the room.

Mo Junyi stood speechless, watching her disappearing back, unable to recover for a long time.

After a moment, he softly muttered to himself, "That 'mother'... I'm the real one, aren't I If I could, I wish I could keep calling you 'mother'."

Mo Jun Yi just finished speaking, and was about to turn around to sit down on a chair nearby when a weak voice suddenly came from behind him, "If you want to shout, then shout."

"!"

Mo Junyi suddenly turned around, "Fifth Uncle!"

He rushed back to his side, seeing Mo Yunjing's eyes already open, he was extremely excited, "Fifth Uncle, you're awake! I... I'll go call that woman back."

"Just a moment." Mo Yunjing's voice was extremely low.

On the other side, after An Xuetang left her room, she was taken to the kitchen by Yunliu. She personally cooked porridge for Mo Yunjing and added some medicinal herbs to it.

That Dr. Liu also didn't know how he heard that she was going to prepare medicinal meals for Mo Yunjing, and now he hurried over.

An Xuetang heard the sound and raised her eyes to look at him, "Dr. Liu, is there something"

"It's alright, Your Highness. I heard you are preparing a medicinal meal for His Royal Highness What kind of medicinal meal is it This old man is very curious. This medicinal meal should be able to help His Royal Highness expel the toxins from his body, right"

An Xuetang smirked, "Dr. Liu, perhaps you'd rather just say you came to see what medicine I intend to use on the Prince"

"Dr. Liu, caught out, blushed slightly and quickly masked it with a smile, "Your Highness, please forgive me. The old man is truly curious. After all, the poison in Your Highness's body has been studied for quite some time, but I still don't know which medicine can cure it. Now that your Highness has created an antidote so quickly, the old man is naturally very curious."

An Xuetang understood his feelings as a doctor and, at this moment, didn't hide anything. She directly mentioned the herbs she had used to him.

When Liu Langzhong heard that the treatment required the lily bulb flower, he instantly understood. He shook his head and sighed, "No wonder that year, all the lily bulb flowers in the entire capital city disappeared overnight. It turned out this medicinal herb was used up."

This lily bulb was originally a common medicinal herb available in most pharmacies. Because this lily bulb is primarily used to stop coughs and clear phlegm, many doctors would prescribe lily bulbs to treat patients with fever and flu symptoms.

The year King Wu was poisoned, the entire capital city suddenly ran out of that lily flower. At that time, Dr. Liu didn't know what had happened. Besides, there were other medicinal herbs that could replace the lily flower, so he didn't think too much about it.

Now, looking back, it seems that everything wasn't a coincidence. The disappearance of all the lily flowers in the capital overnight was also deliberate.

"An Xuetang stirred the porridge in the pot while asking, "Back then when Jing was poisoned, who treated him"

Because it had been many years, Dr. Liu pondered for a moment before replying, "Besides myself, there are two imperial physicians."

"Who are those two imperial physicians Were they sent by the Emperor"

Dr. Liu felt that An Xuetang's words were veiled, and after thinking for a moment, he replied, "No, the two imperial physicians, I remember very clearly, they were sent from the former crown prince's mansion."s, fixed on the burning imperial decree. His voice, frigid as winter, echoed once more, "What does Yun Si say""Yun Si sent word that Young Master Jiang has successfully infiltrated the Prince's reside...
