The General's Darling Is Delicate-Chapter 345 - 212: Came Here in Good Shape, Now at Death’s Door...
"General, I truly have never seen such a condition before. Perhaps you should find a more skilled physician?"
"General, I... my medical skills are lacking. You’d better seek someone more capable!"
"General, this person is likely beyond saving. Their internal organs are all deteriorated, you’d better..."
"Get out, get out, get out!"
One doctor after another was summoned, all proclaiming there was no hope.
Some even directly pronounced Ying Ce dead.
Yelyu Lie chased everyone out, finally realizing that this time, it might not be an act; he was truly on the verge of death.
The face that was once as fair as jade was now turning a sallow blue, resembling that of a corpse.
Yun Chunnuan was extremely flustered as well.
Just moments ago, the instruction was given for him not to die, and now he was on his way to see King Yan...
Could this lead to a major catastrophe?
If it truly were a book, could the entire world just collapse? Disappear? Cease to exist?
The more Yun Chunnuan thought about it, the more frightened she became. Nervously, she asked, "Husband, should we summon an Imperial Physician?"
Yelyu Lie furrowed his brow. Summoning an Imperial Physician would mean his father, the King, would also become aware of the matter.
But if that madman were truly to die like this, the King could not be kept in the dark forever.
Yelyu Lie did not understand such things as novels, nor did he realize what danger the Grandmaster was referring to.
He merely felt that this person could not die.
At least, not die in Bianliao...
"I can’t trust you alone with him. I’ll have Aze send the word."
Within an hour, several carriages arrived outside the General Mansion.
The visitors were all esteemed elders from the Imperial Hospital, including the scholar who previously assisted the young couple’s deceit.
This time, he dared not begin the examination himself, instructing his subordinates to first diagnose the Regent King of Great Xia.
One by one, they were all terrified, unable to even speak coherently.
Having no other choice, the senior Imperial Physician had to take the lead himself.
After years of practice, having saved countless lives, and possessing a set of skills capable of miraculous cures, he was titled as a scholar at the Imperial Hospital.
Yet he had never encountered such an odd ailment...
"How is it?" Yun Chunnuan asked, noticing the senior Imperial Physician’s deeply furrowed brow.
The senior Imperial Physician shook his head, looking at the imposing man beside him, "General, I fear the Prince may have been poisoned, and it’s been several years. There is indeed no cure. You’d better inform the King as soon as possible and make early preparations."
A once angelic-looking handsome man, in good health upon arrival, was now on the brink of death...
And seeing him in such a miserable state, it seems he suffered quite a bit in the General Mansion.
However, the senior Imperial Physician dared not accuse the General. He couldn’t afford to offend either side, so he specifically mentioned that it had been years in hopes these two influential figures might spare his frail self!
Of course, this information definitely wouldn’t be passed on.
Upon learning that the Regent King of Great Xia had an incident in the General Mansion and that most of the Imperial Hospital had been mobilized, the King of Bianliao personally came to the General Mansion.
Even on the day of his son’s wedding, he hadn’t come, but upon hearing that something happened to the Regent King, he rushed over immediately, showcasing how much this King feared Great Xia.
Decades of living in luxury had long eroded his youthful vigor.
He could only recall his days of riding horses and galloping across the battlefield in his memories.
Seeing the man covered in debris, life or death uncertain, dressed not in white but in bloody clothes!
A man clad in blood-stained garments!
Yelyu Erlun’s legs weakened, "You fool! You wretched beast! For a woman, you’ve... You’ve infuriated me to death!"
He mercilessly berated his son without distinguishing between right and wrong.
Assuming this scoundrel had tormented someone to this state over that Great Xia Princess and now sought his father’s help as things escalated beyond control!
"This catastrophe is your doing. You personally go apologize to Great Xia! Even if it costs your life, you must make amends with your death!!!"
Yelyu Lie lowered his gaze to the furious middle-aged man in front of him.
His eyes reflected an unprecedented coldness.
Was he too foolish? How had he never noticed before what kind of king and father he truly was?
Time and again, his father had disappointed him to the point his heart no longer stirred with even a ripple.
Perhaps, as his young wife said, without his sworn defense of the land, Bianliao would have long since been devoured by Great Xia.
Was this sort of man, who chose the Prince, truly suitable to be the next king?
"What kind of look is that?!"
Yelyu Lie’s eyes bore resemblance to his father’s, especially those amber pupils, almost indistinguishable.
One pair clear and bright, the other long clouded and decayed.
Observing with careful discretion, the senior Imperial Physician finally decided to speak up.
"Your Majesty, the Prince’s fatal poison didn’t originate from the General. It’s indeed been several years, and his internal organs are already damaged. He was likely surviving on an Immortal Pill to stave off death."
Yelyu Erlun’s expression stalled, not because he didn’t believe the senior Imperial Physician’s words, but...
That Great Xia Princess absolutely could not remain!
With a stern face, bristled beard, and glaring eyes, he pointed at the haughty young girl beside them, "Don’t try to cover for them! This brat’s become too bold! For this woman..."
"My King."
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Two voices rang out simultaneously.
One was Yelyu Lie, a fierce defender of his wife, unable to hear anyone speak ill of his young wife.
The other was Ying Ce, who had been in a coma but suddenly awoke.
Now, he was the center of everyone’s attention. With just a cough, Yelyu Erlun immediately approached, "Prince, are you..."
"Are you reproaching the Princess of my Great Xia?"
Yelyu Erlun’s voice had just sounded when it was interrupted by a serene voice.
His appearance was unspeakably disheveled, with even traces of blood at the corners of his mouth. Yet his demeanor was so calm and composed, as if the one teetering on the brink of death wasn’t him.
Yelyu Erlun was utterly dumbfounded.
He could never comprehend what went through the minds of these young generations’ little brats.
For a woman, was it truly worth it?
"I hadn’t..."
"Apologize." The languid and composed voice cut off the golden-robed middle-aged man.
He entirely dismissed him.
Yelyu Erlun grew somewhat annoyed!
This damned brat had absolutely no regard for him!
For whom was he doing all this?
"Won’t apologize?" Ying Ce, lying on the bed, raised an eyebrow slightly, "Then, in no time, Great Xia will attack Bianliao at all costs."
His tone was light and apathetic.
As if discussing today’s weather with someone.
Inside, Yelyu Erlun was shocked!
He understood Great Xia too well, which is why he would humble himself before such a junior!
Even though Great Xia had a King, in reality, he was merely a nominal puppet emperor, nothing more!
The true lifeline of Great Xia was held by that frail brat lying on the bed!
