“Huh?” Xiaobei was confused, somewhat unable to grasp the meaning of his young master’s words.
“No matter who comes later, don’t let them know that I’ve awakened, and continue pretending that I am unconscious,” Wei Jinyi added.
China was somewhat baffled as to why Wei Jinyi would arrange things in such a way, but as a servant who had been with Wei Jinyi for over ten years, he had complete trust in his young master’s judgment.
Thus, he immediately carried out the order, and relayed the young master’s instructions to Guard Jing Hu.
Shortly thereafter, Jing Hu quickly sprang into action, mounted his horse, and galloped out the gate.

As the Dragon Boat Festival drew near, the dawn light broke exceptionally early, and while the moon had not yet disappeared, the eastern horizon was already gleaming white.
A man clad in armor was riding a galloping horse.
The horse came to a halt at the entrance of the Wei Residence, and as soon as it stopped, Wei Mingting jumped off.
Not waiting for the servant at the gate to approach him, he swiftly entered the residence.
The Wei Family had just returned to calm at that moment.
As Wei Mingting walked briskly into the Cangyun Garden, everyone in the garden was taken aback.
“My Lord?” Lady Yun was surprised to see her husband return home so early.
With a grim face, Wei Mingting asked, “How is Jinyi now?”
“Jinyi?” Lady Yun was taken aback.
“I’m asking about Jinyi’s current condition!” Wei Mingting spoke sharply. Lady Yun didn’t know how to respond, and was at a loss for a moment.
Just then, the doctor who had previously treated Wei Qingwan arrived.
After examining Wei Qingwan last night, he confirmed that her condition was not serious and had merely applied some medicine. The remaining medicine was to be delivered this morning.
Wei Mingting directly asked the doctor, “What is my son’s condition now?”
Even the doctor was taken aback. “Lord Wei… has your son also fallen ill?” The color on Wei Mingting’s face became even colder upon hearing this.
With that, he immediately turned and left for Yingzhu Garden.
Lady Yun was stunned. Over the years of their marriage, there were very few occasions when she had ever seen her husband looking so grim.
She hurriedly followed after him, bringing along the doctor.
They entered Yingzhu Garden. The courtyard was desolate and quiet, and there was not a single person at the entrance of the bedroom.
Pushing open the bedroom door, Wei Mingting saw only Xiaobei standing guard in the room with Wei Jinyi lying down on the bed.
Rushing over to the bedside, Wei Mingting, upon seeing Wei Jinyi pale and unconscious on the bed, was outraged. “What happened?!” novelbuddy.c om
Xiaobei dropped to his knees, “Young master felt a chill a few days ago and was feeling a bit unwell. I suggested we call a doctor, but the young master brushed it off as a minor ailment, thinking that he would be fine after drinking some ginger tea to dispel the cold. Who would have thought that late last night his condition worsened, and he has been unconscious since then…”
“Why didn’t you find a doctor?!”
“I went to the manager’s room to seek help to get a doctor, but the servants at Wangmei Garden wouldn’t let me in. I was out of options and pleaded with the young mistress. She stormed into Wangmei Garden with me and we found manager Li. But manager Li said the young master’s illness wasn’t serious and refused to call a doctor…”
Kneeling on the ground, Xiaobei nervously recounted the events of the previous night. f reeweb novel.com
Aside from the fact that Wei Jinyi had remained unconscious, everything else he said was true.
With a swift turn of his head, Wei Mingting focused his gaze on the doorway. Upon seeing Wei Jinyi lying unconscious on the bed, Lady Yun had already turned pale.
“Given the state he’s in, why didn’t you call a doctor?” Wei Mingting interrogated Lady Yun.
“Yesterday Wanwan hurt her foot, and I was worried about her… I didn’t manage to… I thought Jinyi was okay…” Lady Yun hurriedly explained.
Wei Mingting turned to question the doctor, “How serious is my daughter’s injury?”
The doctor, unaware of what had happened, replied honestly, “The young lady’s injuries are not serious, it’s just some skin abrasions that have not injured the muscles and bones. There will be no lasting issues. Please rest assured, my lord.”
After listening to the doctor, Wei Mingting was even angrier, “Wanwan just has bruises, but Jinyi is on the verge of dying! You had the doctor come over, but only cared to have him look at Wanwan’s foot! Are you trying to kill Jinyi’?!”
“I…” Lady Yun was flustered. She truly did not know that Wei Jinyi was so seriously ill.
She had taken the words of manager Li at face value, assuming that Wei Jinyi’s severity was just an excuse made by Wei Ruo to gain access to Wangmei Garden!
Now, seeing the critically ill Wei Jinyi and the furious Wei Mingting, Lady Yun had no rebuttal in her defense.
Wei Mingting ordered the doctor, “You must examine my son quickly!”
“Ye… yes!”
The doctor was intimidated by Wei Mingting’s aura and, trembling, made his way to the bedside to examine Wei Jinyi.
He started sweating profusely, “This… this…”
“What is it? Hurry up and spit it out!”
“The young lord’s pulse is extremely faint… This… This is a terrible sign…”
Upon hearing the doctor’s words, even the always composed Wei Mingting panicked, “Is there a remedy?”
“I… I’ll write a prescription now, and you must send people to gather the herbs immediately. Once they arrive, make a decoction for the young lord to consume. Whether he can be saved will depend on his luck… I have never treated such a severe case before. Perhaps if it was found earlier, the condition wouldn’t be as severe…” The doctor explained, trembling.
“Jing Hu, follow the doctor. After he writes the prescription, hurry and get the herbs returned! You must oversee the whole process from obtaining the herbs to preparing the decoction, without wasting a single moment!”
Wet Mingting immediately commanded the guard standing outside the door to handle this task.
Yes, sir!” Jing Hu obeyed and quickly sprung into action.
Usually, Wei Mingting would have entrusted these matters to Lady Yun but today he directly ordered the guards, clear evidence of how disappointed he was with Lady Yun over this incident.
Wei Mingting then told Xiaobei to get up, “You stay here and look after your young master. If anything like this happens again, contact me immediately.” “Yes, I understand,” Xiaobei consented.
Wei Mingting then stood by the bedside, looking down at Wei Jinyi with a grave expression, causing everyone in the room to feel very unease.
After a while, Wei Mingting turned and left. Lady Yun, cautiously, followed him.
Back at Cangyun Garden, seeing Wei Mingting who radiated anger, Lady Yun knelt down.
With anger filling his heart, Wei Mingting questioned the kneeling Lady Yun: “I know you have always nursed resentments towards Jinyi. If you’re angry, vent it on me! You should not act this way towards him! When I told you to look after him, is this how you do it? Had I arrived any later, he would be dead now!”
“I truly did not know that Jinyi was this sick! If I had known, I would never have jeopardized his life!” Lady Yun’s eyes welled up with tears.
“Why wouldn’t you know? You knew about Wanwan’s injury at her foot, you did call for a doctor in the middle of the night. But when Jinyi falls ill, so much so that he’s unconscious, why did you not know?! Jinyi’s servant tried to look for a doctor without success. Even Ruo tried to help but still couldn’t get a doctor.. Can you tell me what actually happened?”
