The Second Elder beside her gave a slight nod, gesturing for her to go and feel the pulse to check the condition of this person. Ling'er's medical skills were far superior to Bai Xueji's.
Watching Ling'er approaching that "bloody corpse" while enduring her nausea, Bai Xueji clenched her hands even tighter. This made Tang Youyou can't help but sneer.
With her arms folded across her chest, Tang Youyou observed Bai Xueji's actions.
Tang Youyou suddenly spoke up to mock, "I never thought that Miss Bai's feelings for His Highness the Crown Prince would be so deep!"
These words instantly doused Bai Xueji's excited mood. She could tell that Tang Youyou was confident, as if she had already anticipated that Ling'er would help her examine Su Sen.
Hearing this, Bai Xueji forced a shy smile and said, "Your Majesty the Queen flatters me."
Of course, she felt guilty. Tang Youyou must have already seen through her little thoughts.
Ling'er glanced at Bai Xueji beside her. She smiled faintly, then turned around and gently advised, "Sister, don't let your feelings consume you. This person is in such a state. He must have been poisoned too deeply and can't be saved."
Hearing Ling'er's decisive verdict, Bai Xueji said nervously, "Sister, Su Sen and I are deeply in love. If you can save him, please do so."
Hearing Bai Xueji being so obedient, Ling'er couldn't help but feel secretly delighted.
However, amidst her delight, she was also a bit puzzled. Why did such an overbearing person suddenly start being respectful to her?
Enduring the nausea in her heart, Ling'er walked towards the bloody corpse. Frowning in disgust, she placed her hand on his pulse. Suddenly, she stood still on the spot.
She couldn't believe it and checked the pulse again, but the result was still the same as before.
At this point, Ling'er shook her head helplessly. Looking at Bai Xueji who was still full of hope beside her, she said, "I'm afraid this person can't be saved. After feeling his pulse, I found that his pulse is no different from that of a normal person, but his appearance is like that of a dying man."
Hearing this, Bai Xueji, who still had a glimmer of hope, instantly broke down. She forced a shy smile and said, "If that's the case, it must be fate. I don't blame you, sister, for not being able to save him."
Hearing this, the Second Elder sitting on one side slowly got up and walked towards Su Sen. As his aged hand rested on his pulse, the elder frowned.
"It's strange. This person's pulse is clearly the same as that of a normal person. I'm afraid he's not critically ill or poisoned, but his body is too weak to withstand the dust in the environment, which is why he's in this state."
After the elder finished speaking, Bai Xueji asked, "If that's the case, does the Second Elder have a way to save him?"
The Second Elder shook his head. "I'm afraid I'm powerless in this matter. He can't be saved."
With the Second Elder's confirmation, Bai Xueji completely gave up.
As everyone knew, this Second Elder was good at the art of poison and was famous for it. But even such a person couldn't solve the poison that Tang Youyou had administered, and he couldn't even detect it.
This time, Bai Xueji completely gave up all thoughts and had no hope left. She was completely in despair and sat silently on one side.
Seeing this person finally quiet down, Tang Youyou smiled contentedly. She walked up to the two of them and said, "If that's the case, then I won't force the two of you anymore."
Just as Tang Youyou finished speaking, she heard Ling'er speak up again. "Your Majesty, I came here today with another matter to report to Your Majesty."
Rong Xun looked at this woman with a half - smile and said calmly, "So, what do you want to tell me? I allow you to speak."
Hearing Rong Xun's words, Ling'er involuntarily fixed her gaze on Rong Xun's face and didn't move it away for a long time.
"Your Majesty, I came here today partly for my sister and partly for the Soul Jade of the Great Ming Kingdom."
Hearing this, Tang Youyou frowned. She had never heard any information about the Soul Jade. Could it be that this thing was not from the Great Ming Kingdom?
Thinking of this, she saw Rong Xun beside her looking at the two people in front of him seriously.
He sneered and said, "So, do you want it, or are you going to take it by force?"
Rong Xun had said this much, so the two of them naturally knew that the emperor in front of them was not the cowardly emperor who had sent them a letter not long ago.
It seemed that a lot of things had happened in the Great Ming Kingdom recently.
Hearing Rong Xun's words, the expressions of the two of them changed suddenly. The Second Elder's expression also became ugly. He looked at Rong Xun with killing intent in his eyes.
However, considering the background of the two of them, Tang Youyou coughed lightly and said, "If that's the case, then let the two of you wait for another two days. After two days, Your Majesty will prepare the item and hand it over to you."
Tang Youyou's words were just right, and the potential conflict between them instantly disappeared.
Seeing that Tang Youyou had already said so, the two of them had no choice but to nod in agreement.
After that, Tang Youyou came to the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Seeing Rong Xun still having a headache over the official documents, she walked carefully to the table.
"Rong Xun, why were you so agitated today? It's just a piece of jade. If they want it, just give it to them. Why offend them?"
Hearing this, Rong Xun rubbed the space between his eyebrows. Looking at the naive Tang Youyou, he slowly explained, "The Soul Jade is a symbol of the descendants of military families. There is only one in the world. Half of it is in my hands, but there's still the other half."
Hearing what Rong Xun said, Tang Youyou thought the jade was just ordinary. She nodded and said, "If that's the case, then just give it to them. Where is the other half? Just bring it here."
"Although it's that simple, the other half of the Soul Jade is not with me."
Seeing Rong Xun frowning tightly, Tang Youyou asked, "Then where is it now?"
"In your father's mouth."
Hearing this, Tang Youyou stood still on the spot. It took her a long time to react before she asked again.
"Father has passed away. Could it be that it was buried with him?"
After she finished speaking, Tang Youyou instantly fell silent. She seemed to understand.
This thing was now buried in her father's mouth. If they wanted to take it out now, they would have to dig up the grave, which was a great act of disrespect!
Moreover, the person lying in the coffin was her father. How could she be so unfilial?
Thinking of this, Rong Xun looked at Tang Youyou who was deep in thought beside him again. He took Tang Youyou's little hand and said affectionately, "You'er, if you keep giving in to such people, they will only keep suppressing you. They won't be grateful at all because of your concession."
Hearing this, Tang Youyou shook her head. "It shouldn't be like that. They came here with a clear purpose. If we give it to them, they will leave. At least it can give the Great Ming Kingdom some time to catch its breath."
Seeing that Tang Youyou still insisted, Rong Xun nodded. "Tomorrow, you tell them like this..."
