Chapter 759 Wenxuan Comes to Visit

"You must come back soon." Xi Yu prayed silently in his heart.

Ouyang Linlin stood in the room, looking at Xi Ping'an with worry in her eyes. She bit her lips tightly and secretly decided to do something for Xi Ping'an.

Ouyang Linlin's room.

"Xiaohong, I'm going to the small Buddhist temple at home to pray for Xi Ping'an." Ouyang Linlin said.

Xiaohong's face immediately showed worry when she heard it, and she hurriedly advised: "Miss, you are pregnant now, it's better not to walk around casually. What if there is a mistake?"

Ouyang Linlin shook her head slightly, gently stroking her not-so-obvious belly, with tenderness and determination in her eyes.

"No, I must go. Xi Ping'an suffered such pain at such a young age, I can't just sit and watch. My body has not yet reached the point where I can't walk, and walking more is also good."

Xiaohong saw that she couldn't persuade Ouyang Linlin, so she had to sigh helplessly.

"Okay, Miss, I'll go with you then." Xiaohong said, she decided to protect Ouyang Linlin no matter what.

The master and servant came to the small Buddhist temple.

The small Buddhist temple was filled with a faint sandalwood scent, which made people calm down involuntarily.

Ouyang Linlin and Xiaohong knelt down slowly, put their hands together, and their eyes were full of piety.

Ouyang Linlin prayed silently in her heart: "Buddha, please bless Xi Pingan to get better soon. He is still so young and should not bear such pain. Please also bless my child to be born safely and healthily."

Xiaohong also prayed silently in her heart, she hoped that Buddha could hear their voices and let Xi Pingan recover soon.

In Youzhou College, Wenxuan was concentrating on reading the scroll in her hand, and suddenly heard the news that Xi Pingan was sick.

She suddenly felt a surge of worry in her heart, and put down the scroll in her hand without hesitation, and began to prepare gifts to go and see.

With a lot of gifts, Wenxuan came to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Her eyes were full of expectation, hoping to see Xi Pingan as soon as possible and learn about his condition.

When Wenxuan learned that Xiyu was in Ganmei's room, he walked there immediately without hesitation.

Xiyu was pacing in Ganmei's room with worry, and suddenly heard the servants report that Wenxuan had arrived.

Xiyu quickly sorted out his emotions and walked out quickly.

When he saw Wenxuan standing there with many gifts, a warm current surged in his heart.

Wenxuan's eyes were full of concern. She looked at Xiyu and said, "I heard that the young master was sick, and I was very worried, so I came to see. These gifts are my little thoughts, and I hope they can help the young master's condition." There was a gentle smile on her face, making people feel like spring breeze.

Xiyu looked at Wenxuan, and a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes.

He sighed lightly and said, "You are thoughtful. Ping'an's sudden illness made me, as a father, very anxious. I am very touched that you can come to visit him at this time."

Xiyu's voice was a little hoarse, obviously because he was exhausted from worrying about Xi Pingan.

Wenxuan shook his head gently and said, "You're welcome. The young master and I are also destined to be together. He is so cute. Now that he is sick, I can't just sit back and watch."

Xiyu nodded slightly and said, "Come in with me." Then he led Wenxuan to Ganmei's room.

Wenxuan followed Xiyu, his heart full of worry.

Walking into the room, Wenxuan saw Ganmei guarding Xipingan's bedside, her face full of anxiety and heartache.

She walked up gently, put the gift aside, and then looked at Xipingan with pity in her eyes.

"How is the young master? Is he feeling better?" Wenxuan asked softly.

Gan Mei raised her head and saw Wen Xuan. She shook her head slightly and said, "It's still the same. She's been unconscious and has a fever."

Wen Xuan gently held Gan Mei's hand and said, "Don't worry, she will get better."

Then, Xi Yu looked at Wen Xuan and said softly, "Come with me into my room."

Wen Xuan shook his head slightly and said, "Let's talk outside directly."

Xi Yu was slightly startled, then nodded in agreement.

The two came to a pavilion together, and the breeze blew gently, bringing a hint of coolness.

Wen Xuan looked at Xi Yu, his eyes full of concern, and slowly said, "I heard that the child was poisoned?"

Xi Yu nodded slightly, with a heavy look on his face, and said, "Yes, Ping An was suddenly poisoned, which caught me off guard."

His eyes were full of worry, and his heart seemed to be pressed by a huge rock.

Wenxuan sighed and said, "Parents are so pitiful. You must have been so worried about your child."

Her eyes fell on Xiyu's face, and she saw that he was indeed haggard, and his handsome face was now full of fatigue.

Wenxuan frowned slightly and asked again, "Have you found the murderer now?"

Xiyu shook his head slowly, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes, and said, "Not yet. I have sent people to investigate everywhere, but there is no clue yet, and I also asked Song Shuwen to go collect herbs."

Wenxuan was silent for a moment, then said, "Then is there any news about Song Shuwen going to collect herbs?"

Xiyu shook his head again, a look of worry appeared on his face, and said, "There is no news about his whereabouts. I am also worried about his safety. I don't know if he has encountered any trouble."

His eyes were full of worry, and he kept praying in his heart that Song Shuwen would return safely.

Wenxuan looked at Xi Yu's sad face and couldn't bear it. He comforted him softly: "Don't worry too much. There should be no problem."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Wenxuan's face showed a look of hesitation.

Xi Yu noticed something strange about Wen Xuan, frowned slightly and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it."

Wenxuan hesitated for a moment, but finally plucked up the courage and said, "I think you are too superstitious about Song Shuwen?"

Xi Yu was stunned for a moment, then a firm look appeared on his face and he said, "This is not superstition. After all, Song Shuwen's medical skills are there, and his ability is obvious to all. In this case, I can only believe in him."

Wenxuan couldn't help feeling a little emotional when he saw Xi Yu's determined expression.

She knew that Xi Yu was a person who valued affection and righteousness and was full of trust in the people around him.

She also hopes that Song Shuwen can live up to expectations and come back with medicine as soon as possible to save the drama.

Wenxuan frowned slightly and said seriously: "I have a suggestion. Song Shuwen should have no apprentices, right? He is also old and should have apprentices. In this way, his medical skills can be passed down. If he encounters a similar situation again in the future , and also have more protection.”

After hearing Wenxuan's words, Xi Yu nodded slightly and fell into deep thought.

After a moment, he said: "You are right. Song Shuwen's medical skills are indeed superb. It would be great if he could have an apprentice to pass it on. I will give him advice if I have the opportunity."

Wenxuan looked at Xi Yu and said with a smile: "In that case, I will leave first. I hope the young master can recover soon."

Xi Yu nodded slightly and said, "Thank you for your concern and advice. Walk slowly."

Wenxuan turned around and left, and his figure gradually disappeared into the distance.

Song Shuwen slowly woke up, his head still a little groggy.

He slowly opened his eyes, but saw only darkness, as if he was in endless darkness.

He was startled and quickly tried to stand up and groped forward.

However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not get out of this dark room.

"Someone is coming! Someone is coming!" Song Shuwen shouted loudly, his voice echoing in the darkness, but no one answered.

His heart was filled with fear and despair, and he didn't know where he was.

Song Shuwen slowly sat down against the wall, his heart filled with pain.

"I didn't expect that an accident would happen this time. If the medicine is taken away, wouldn't the young master's illness be troublesome?" He murmured to himself.

He thought of Xi Ping'an's lovely face and felt even more uncomfortable.

And now, the medicine was taken away and he was trapped here again, not knowing what to do.

Song Shuwen pounded the ground hard, his heart filled with anger.

He hated those who took away the medicine.

Several secret guards were in another dark room, their bodies limp and unable to exert any strength.

Their faces were full of frustration.

"Alas, we really betrayed the Prime Minister's trust and ended up in this situation." A secret guard sighed, his voice full of guilt.

Another secret guard said: "I don't know who actually targets the Prime Minister like this."

In this dark room, several secret guards were filled with anxiety.

"If I am lucky enough to return to the Prime Minister, I am willing to die to apologize. It is our incompetence that has put the Prime Minister into such a predicament." Another secret guard said.

"Don't blame yourself yet, things haven't reached that point yet. Our top priority is to find a way to get out of here, return to the Prime Minister, and inform the Prime Minister of what happened, so that the Prime Minister can take precautions."

Then, the secret guard raised his voice and shouted: "Come here! Why doesn't anyone show up? Are you a coward? Do you have the guts to lock us in here, but don't have the guts to come out and face us?"

However, the response to him was still deathly silence, and no one appeared.

The hearts of several secret guards were even heavier. They didn't know whether they could escape this predicament and return to the Prime Minister.

In that dark room, the faces of several secret guards became more serious.

One of the secret guards frowned and analyzed: "Those people brought us here, do they want to trap us to death?" There was a trace of doubt and uneasiness in his voice.

The other secret guard's stomach growled at this time, which was particularly clear in this silent environment. He clutched his stomach helplessly, a look of pain on his face.

Another secret guard couldn't help but cursed: "What do these bastards want to do? They lock us here and don't even give us anything to stutter."

In the prime minister's house, the servant responsible for the investigation was nervously reporting the situation to Xi Yu.

"Your Majesty Prime Minister, the maids in Ganmei's room and the cook are fine for the time being."

The servant's voice was trembling, and he obviously felt the strong pressure emanating from Xi Yu.

Xi Yu's face was terrifyingly gloomy, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, with a sharp light shining in his eyes.

"It must have been caused by some of them being bribed. After all, they are the ones who have direct contact with Xi Ping An." His voice was extremely cold and full of anger.

Xi Yu turned to look at Gan Mei and said, "Originally I didn't want to give in, but now it seems that I can't do it without punishment."

In order to find out the murderer who hurt Xi Ping'an, he did not hesitate to use all means.

Gan Mei's face showed worry, but she also knew that Xi Yu's decision was the right one.

At this time, decisive measures must be taken to find the murderer as soon as possible and avenge Xi Ping An.

Gan Mei, who was always gentle, had a cold face at this moment. She bit her lips tightly, and her eyes flashed with anger.

"That's right. Once the murderer is found, he must be severely punished." She said fiercely, her voice full of determination.

Xi Yu looked at Gan Mei, nodded slightly, and turned to tell the investigators again.

"You can use appropriate torture, and you must find the murderer as soon as possible." His eyes were cold and his tone was unquestionable.

The investigators felt the strong pressure emanating from Xi Yu, and hurriedly bowed their heads and responded: "Yes, Prime Minister, I will do my best to find the murderer."

After a while, Xi Yu's anxiety became stronger and stronger, and he decided to go and see the progress of the investigation in person.

Several servants were locked in different rooms, which could effectively prevent them from colluding with each other.

Xi Yu walked in a corridor of the Prime Minister's Mansion with heavy steps.

Suddenly, he heard a scream. The sound was shrill and desperate, which made people feel nervous.

"I am innocent! I have confessed that the matter has nothing to do with me!" A maid cried loudly, her voice full of grievance and fear.

Xiyu stopped, frowned slightly, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.

He sighed lightly. He didn't want to do this, but sometimes, it's not okay without taking some measures.

Xiyu knew that in order to find the murderer who hurt Xi Ping'an, he had to be ruthless.

Even if it would cause dissatisfaction and pain to some people, he couldn't back down.

He took a deep breath and continued to walk towards the room where the servants were imprisoned, praying in his heart that he could find the murderer as soon as possible and seek justice for Xi Ping'an.

A soldier saw Xiyu and immediately saluted respectfully. Xiyu nodded slightly, but his eyes were still cold.

He wanted to check carefully room by room, not missing any possible clues.

When he walked to the cook's room, his steps stopped involuntarily.

He decided to stay in this room for a while and question the cook carefully.

The cook's face was full of tears and her eyes were full of fear.

She said in a trembling voice: "Prime Minister, spare me! This has nothing to do with me! The eldest lady ate the food I cooked, so how come she is fine? This means that I didn't poison the food!"

Xiyu stared at the cook closely, trying to find a flaw in her expression and words.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a moment and said: "What you said makes sense, but before the real murderer is found, everyone is a suspect. You'd better tell the truth. Have you found anything unusual?" He was chilling.

The cook shook her head desperately, tears kept pouring out. "Prime Minister, I really don't know anything! I just cook according to instructions every day and have never done anything bad. Please believe me!"

Xiyu looked at the cook and was a little shaken in his heart.

But he knew that he couldn't trust anyone easily at this time.

He turned to the soldiers behind him and said: "Continue to keep a close watch, and report to me immediately if there is any abnormality." After that, he glanced at the cook again, then turned and left the room.

Xiyu walked out of the last room with a heavy face. He looked around but didn't see anything unusual.

This made him fall into deep thought, frowning and full of doubts in his eyes.

"Did I make a wrong judgment? No, it's impossible." Xiyu secretly denied his doubts in his heart.

He believed that his investigation direction was correct. There must be something overlooked, or the murderer was hiding too deeply.

Soon, Xiyu returned to Ganmei's room.

Ganmei saw Xiyu coming back and hurried forward, her eyes full of concern.

Xiyu looked at Ganmei, sighed slightly, and then told Ganmei about the situation just now.

"I looked around and didn't find anything unusual. But I believe that our investigation direction is correct. There must be something we haven't thought of yet."

Ganmei frowned slightly after listening to Xiyu's words and fell into deep thought. She knew that Xiyu's judgment must have his reasons, but the current situation is indeed confusing.

"So what should we do now?" Ganmei asked softly.

Xiyu was silent for a moment, then said: "Continue the investigation, and don't miss any clues. I believe that the murderer will reveal his feet."

Her face was full of anxiety, her hands were tightly twisted together, and the worry in her heart was like a dark cloud.

At this time, her eyes suddenly lit up, as if she thought of something.

"Husband, do you think it is possible that some food is poisonous to children, but it is fine for adults to eat it?" Gan Mei said anxiously, her eyes full of expectation.

Xiyu was stunned at first, and then a glimmer of thought flashed in his eyes.

"Maybe there is this possibility, this is a breakthrough." Xiyu said, and a glimmer of hope surged in his heart.

He couldn't help but regret that he was too anxious at the time and didn't ask Song Shuwen about the specific poisoning situation.

If he had known that there was such a possibility earlier, he might have found clues faster.

"We have to send someone to investigate quickly to see if there is such food."

Gan Mei nodded, and a glimmer of hope appeared on her face.

Xiyu told Gan Mei.

"Don't be too sad. You had no appetite last night. You must take care of yourself."

"I can't eat."

"I understand how you feel, but if you're sick, wouldn't I have to worry more?"

Gan Mei was stunned. It was true. She smiled bitterly.

"You're talking about me. Aren't you also haggard?"

"That's right. We all have to be well and strong."

Xi Yu then hugged Gan Mei in his arms.

Gan Mei had an unusual feeling.

The child was sick, which was of course a bad thing.

But it made Xi Yu accompany her every day recently and no longer be with other wives.

This seemed to be a good thing. (End of this chapter)
