After he finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave.
Suddenly, a disheveled figure stumbled over from not far away. Judging from the state, it was very likely that the person had suffered some serious injuries.
Neither of them was a meddlesome person, so they both turned and walked in the other direction.
Just as Cui Qizhou was about to leave, someone suddenly grabbed the corner of his clothes.
"Please save the Empress Dowager quickly!"
After saying that, Ziyin let out her last breath.
Ji Huang was a martial artist and hadn't gone too far, so the words just now also reached his ears, making him stop in his tracks.
From his nervous expression, it could be seen that he still had deep affection for Shi Muyuan.
"What's wrong with Mother? She was fine when she left my place yesterday."
Both of them recognized that Ziyin was the personal maid who followed Shi Muyuan, which meant she was of great significance.
At this time, they put aside their old grudges and sent Ziyin to a nearby medical clinic.
"Doctor! Come quickly and see how she is. Is she going to die?"
The doctor rushed over in a hurry, still a bit out of breath. Since human life was at stake, he didn't say much but carefully felt her pulse.
After a long time, he put down his hand and said helplessly, "You two might as well prepare a coffin for this girl. I'm afraid she won't make it. With such serious internal injuries, unless it's the Baifu Pill of the divine doctor, this girl won't survive today. It's strange that she should have died long ago, but she actually managed to live until now. It's not easy."
Hearing the doctor's words, Ji Huang's face turned ashen.
"How is that possible? She was still talking to us just now. But now you're telling us that she's not going to make it. Are you a quack doctor?"
The doctor's most taboo was someone doubting his medical skills, especially a stranger.
He snorted coldly, "If you think my diagnosis is wrong, then please find another doctor. But I'll put it bluntly. This girl doesn't have much time left."
After saying that, the doctor was about to go back to his room.
When everyone was still in a daze, Cui Qizhou took out a porcelain bottle from his body and poured the contents into Ziyin's mouth without hesitation.
This made the doctor beside him extremely frightened.
"What are you two doing? Can't you save her so you're going to kill her directly? Is it necessary? The little girl managed to hold on with that last breath."
Hearing this, the man shot a cold look at him.
"You said that as long as there's the Baifu Pill of the divine doctor, even those on the verge of death can be saved."
Now, not only the doctor but even Ji Huang beside him was stunned.
"I heard that the divine doctor has never made a move in person again. I wonder if the pill you got is real?"
"Do you think I would deliberately harm someone's life?"
"You're crazy! There are very few people in the world who can possess the Baifu Pill. You're just wasting such an important medicine on a little maid. It's simply unreasonable."
The man didn't listen to what the two said. He just stared intently at the unconscious girl on the bed.
"Doctor, didn't you say that as long as the pill is given to her, she will recover soon? Why is there still no sign of improvement?"
If the doctor couldn't tell that the two people in front of him were not ordinary, he would be a fool. He changed his attitude immediately, stepped forward, and respectfully felt the maid's pulse on the bed.
After a while, he exclaimed in surprise.
"Sure enough, it's the medicine of the divine doctor. It shows effects so quickly. And this girl seems to be okay. She just needs to take good care of herself."
These words made the two of them relieved. The girl on the bed slowly woke up.
"Where am I? I thought I was going to die."
Ji Huang stepped closer, thinking of the question he hadn't asked before.
"We saved you. Quickly explain what you meant by those words before you fainted."
Hearing this, Ziyin's eyes gradually became clear. She stared fixedly at the person who was questioning her, wishing she could rush up and fight him.
Such a look surprised Ji Huang.
"What do my words mean? Doesn't the prince know? You asked the princess to cooperate with you. You really staged a good show."
Ji Huang was inexplicably slandered. He was really unhappy.
"What do you mean? I did injure you before, but so much time has passed. You can't still remember it, right?"
"I wouldn't dare, my life is worthless. How could I care about the past? But the prince shouldn't have attacked the Empress Dowager. Even if I risk my life, I will make you pay the price."
Following her words, Cui Qizhou also cast a suspicious look. After meeting that look, Ji Huang really felt that he was more wronged than Dou E.
"You're just a little maid. Why do you keep slandering me? Weren't you there when I let Mother leave before? Now that Mother is missing, you're putting the blame on me. It's ridiculous. I would never joke about Mother's life."
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it either. After so many years of hard work, the Empress Dowager raised a white-eyed wolf."
The words that Ziyin kept saying were enough for Cui Qizhou to change his previous attitude towards Ji Huang.
He said with a cold face, "Prince, you'd better explain what's going on. You keep saying that you didn't do anything to the Empress Dowager. Then where is the Empress Dowager?"
"I really didn't do anything to Mother. Don't you know me? Even if everyone in the world betrays Mother, I will never."
He stretched out his hand and swore to the sky.
After all, he had watched Ji Huang grow up. Cui Qizhou frowned and said, "Could there be some misunderstanding? Tell me in detail what happened at that time."
Just like this, after hearing her words, Ji Huang didn't expect He Hui to secretly take action while he was away.
His face looked a bit ugly. "Since Mother really had an accident at my place, I will never stand by. Don't worry. I'll go back right away and order someone to release Mother. There won't be any problem."
Now Ji Huang's words were still somewhat believable. After getting his repeated assurances, Cui Qizhou decided to let him go back and try.
When Ji Huang returned to his mansion with mixed feelings, he saw He Hui coming up to him with tender eyes.
"Prince, you've been out all day. I've already asked someone to prepare water. You can take a bath and relax later."
Ji Huang's body stiffened a bit. He didn't expect that this gentle woman in front of him would actually do such a thing behind his back.
He sighed and pulled He Hui back into the room.
Even though he knew that He Hui had done such a big thing behind his back, he still hoped that fewer people would know about it.
"Hui'er, I have something to ask you."
