Chapter 345 Critical Situation
The news spread very quickly. Before long, Nangong Zhaolie learned that Shen Li had been knocked unconscious by his own son during a fight.
He was suddenly horrified, stood up suddenly from the dragon throne, and shouted anxiously: "Quick! Go to Qingyi Palace and quickly summon all the imperial doctors to treat the disease!" As he spoke, his panic was evident, and he hurried out of the palace.
When Nangong Zhaolie rushed to Qingyi Palace in a hurry, a group of imperial doctors in the palace were gathered around the bed with serious expressions, taking Shen Li's pulse one by one.
When everyone heard the noise outside, they turned around and saw the emperor arriving, and hurriedly pretended to kneel down and salute.
Nangong Zhaolie had no time to bother with these formalities. He waved his hands anxiously and said, "No need to be polite, no need to be polite! Everyone, please quickly and carefully diagnose and treat County Lady Fuxi. Don't delay!"
After a while, all the imperial physicians finished taking the patient's pulse one after another. However, everyone's face was solemn, and their furrowed brows looked as if they could pinch a fly to death.
Su Ran looked at their expressions from the side, and her heart skipped a beat as an ominous premonition came to her mind.
At this moment, Nangong Zhaolie could no longer suppress his anxiety and asked loudly, "What's going on? Why aren't you talking?"
The imperial doctors looked at each other, and for a moment no one dared to speak first.
Finally, a senior imperial physician stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and slowly replied, "Your Majesty, County Master Fuxi suffered a severe blow to the back of her head, and... and this punch was mixed with internal energy, causing the nerves in her brain to rupture and severe internal bleeding. Her current condition..."
At this point, his voice couldn't help but tremble, his eyes filled with helplessness and regret, and he continued with difficulty: "I'm afraid... I'm afraid he won't live for a few more days!"
When Nangong Zhaolie heard this, he felt like his heart was hit hard. He secretly said, "Not good!" He thought to himself: "What should I do? Shen Li's identity is special. If this matter is not handled properly, it may cause war between the two countries. Then it will be a big trouble!"
Nangong Qi originally still had a glimmer of hope, hoping that Shen Li would be fine, but when he heard the imperial physician say that she would not live for a few days, he was struck by lightning and stared at his hands in a daze, as if he could not believe that his beloved girl, who was lying there with a face as pale as paper and lifeless, was beaten into this state by his own hands.
His eyes instantly turned red and tears welled up in them, but he tried hard not to let them fall, and his body trembled slightly uncontrollably.
At this moment, (Little Koi) Xuanfeng Sanren also hurriedly walked into the hall. When he saw Shen Li lying on the bed, his life or death unknown, his eyes widened immediately, his face full of disbelief, and he muttered to himself: "Master...what happened to my disciple?"
Immediately, as if he suddenly realized something, he turned his head abruptly, his eyes like lightning, and asked in a stern voice: "Who made my apprentice look like this!" There was endless anger in his voice, as if he wanted to eat the culprit alive.
Nangong Zhaolie looked embarrassed and hurried forward to smooth things over, saying, "Old Immortal, please calm down first. This... this, there is indeed a hidden story. Please listen to me slowly..."
He hesitated for a long time, but still could not directly say that it was his son who beat Shen Li unconscious. After all, he knew in his heart that once he told the truth, according to Xuanfeng Sanren's temper, he would probably make Nangong Qi pay for Shen Li's life. That was his most beloved son. How could he watch such a thing happen?
Xuanfeng Sanren ignored his explanation and snorted coldly. He pulled out a memorial and the box of pills from his bosom and threw them to Nangong Zhaolie. He said in a cold tone, "Li'er originally came to the palace to deliver this memorial and this miraculous medicine to you. Now that our mission is accomplished, we'll take our leave!"
After saying that, he no longer paid attention to others, walked straight to the bed, carefully picked up the unconscious Shen Li, turned to Chu Qiu and Su Ran and ordered: "Pack your things and leave the palace immediately!" From his resolute attitude, anyone could see the anger and anxiety in his heart at the moment.
Nangong Zhaolie subconsciously took the box in his hand and looked down at it, his heart filled with shock. He couldn't believe that this was the legendary miracle medicine.
When he regained his composure, he quickly ordered, "Send someone to escort these people out of the palace!"
But he secretly complained in his heart: In the current situation, it is not right to stay, nor to send.
If Shen Li were to be left behind, and she died in the Xiqi Imperial Palace, how would they explain this to the forces behind her? War between the two countries would be inevitable.
But even if Shen Li is sent away now, she still looks like she will not survive if she goes back. How will it end later? This is really a very difficult problem!
At this moment, maybe the old immortal can take Shen Li away and find a way to cure her?
Nangong Zhaolie was thinking in a distracted manner. When he looked up and saw his son still standing there in a daze, he couldn't help feeling a little distressed, so he walked forward to comfort him.
Unexpectedly, Nangong Qi seemed to come back to his senses suddenly from his grief, and he let out a howl and ran out of the hall like crazy.
Nangong Zhaolie saw this and immediately became anxious again. He hurriedly shouted to the secret guards beside him: "Hurry and follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Be sure to be careful and don't let him cause any trouble!"
The voice was full of worry. After receiving the order, the secret guards immediately used their lightness skills to chase in the direction Nangong Qi left.
