“We need His Majesty to decide it. Now he hasn’t woken up, but you are shouting here. Do you hope that he won’t wake up?” Ling Ruiyin yelled at Liang Jingxian angrily.

 

Liang Jingxian hurriedly lowered her head to admit her fault and responded loudly with fear, “I don’t dare to!”

 

Ling Ruiyin glanced at her and coldly told her to leave. “Since you don’t dare to, just be well-behaved. Otherwise, you will have to go back to the Sunshine Palace.”

 

Liang Jingxian shut up and stepped aside unwillingly at last.

 

But she still stared at Shi Qingxue and Mo Junyang resentfully.

 

Shi Qingxue pouted with no emotion and didn’t give Liang Jingxian a glance.

 

She stepped forward to support Ling Ruiyin and advised her softly, “Your Majesty, don’t be anxious. His Majesty is lucky and God will help him. He will be fine. You need to take care of yourself. Otherwise, after His Majesty recovers and sees that you are so worried about him, he will be sad.”

 

Ling Ruiyin was comforted by her and finally showed a faint smile. She didn’t refuse Shi Qingxue’s support but sat in the chair beside the bed.

 

She sighed deeply and helplessly. “Hope everything will be like you said.”

 

“Sure!” Shi Qingxue answered with certainty.

 

As soon as she finished her words, a young eunuch shouted outside, “Doctor Shen has arrived!”

 

Ling Ruiyin was overjoyed and shouted in a hurry, “Tell him to come in now.”

 

Shen Luo was instantly pushed to the front and asked to examine Mo Xiangbin.

 

Fortunately, the person who brought him the imperial decree had roughly told him what happened, so he was not confused.

 

He took the pulse for Mo Xiangbin and then lifted his eyelids to check for a while. Then he picked up the medicine bowl and dipped a little with his pinkie before licking it.

 

Then he turned to the council of the Imperial Academy of Medicine, An Lin. “Is this the medicine to cure a stroke?”

 

Although An Lin’s job was grabbed, he didn’t complain at all as Shen Luo arrived. Instead he welcomed Shen Luo.

 

He nodded in a hurry and told Shen Luo about the prescription in detail.

 

Then he showed a sad face. “Now His Majesty has the symptom of stroke obviously, so I gave the common prescription to cure a stroke in the Imperial Academy of Medicine. It should work, but…”

 

But Mo Xiangbin couldn’t take any medicine.

 

All the royal doctors showed that they could do nothing.

 

Shen Luo furrowed his brows and glanced at the medicine bowl in his hand. Then he turned his head and looked at Mo Xiangbin who was in a coma.

 

He pondered for a while and then saluted Ling Ruiyin. “Your Majesty, with His Majesty’s condition, I am afraid that the ordinary way of feeding him the medicine might be ineffective. If you have no objection, I can give an acupuncture treatment to His Majesty and make him wake up first. Then I will treat him later. Do you agree, Your Majesty?”

 

Ling Ruiyin didn’t know anything about this. Seeing that all the doctors were at a loss, she pinned all her hope on Shen Luo.

 

So she wouldn’t disagree but nodded repeatedly. “Doctor Shen, I believe in your medical skills. Now I entrust His Majesty’s life to you, and it is related to the safety of the Mo Country. Please do cure him!”

 

After Shen Luo said yes, he took out the bag of needles that he often used from his pocket.

 

He put them on the bed, and all the royal doctors were sensible and made way for him. At the same time, they stayed not far away from him and waited for his instructions.

 

Shen Luo skillfully put needles on Mo Xiangbin’s main and important acupoints from head to toe.

 

After about thirty minutes, there were needles all over Mo Xiangbin’s body, but he still didn’t have any reaction.

 

He seemed to have died.

 

Even the royal doctors who were professional were in anxiety, not to mention Ling Ruiyin and the others who waited restlessly.

 

But nobody said anything recklessly. If they disturbed Shen Luo at the critical moment and there was something wrong, nobody could take the blame.

 

After putting the needles, Shen Luo deleted something on An Lin’s prescription and optimized it, making a new prescription.

 

Then he gave it to An Lin and stated, “I have made a new prescription. Please check it, Council.”

 

After An Lin and the others received it and had a look, everybody didn’t feel unconvinced anymore.

 

All of them praised Shen Luo’s excellent prescription.

 

Shen Luo deserved it, so he wasn’t modest.

 

After about fifteen more minutes later, he returned to the bedside and started to pull the needles.

 

He pulled the needles in the opposite order, from toe to head.

 

Everybody stared at Shen Luo’s hands and turned their eyes from the bed end to the head of the bed.

 

When Shen Luo was about to pull the last needle, everybody felt suffocated, as if the air around was frozen.

 

“Ahem…Ahem!”

 

As soon as Shen Luo withdrew his hand, a fit of coughing came from the bed.

 

In the beginning, all people were still stunned and didn’t react.

 

Shen Luo helped Mo Xiangbin sit up and patted his back while advising, “Your Majesty, your vital energy is fixed in your chest now, and you need to cough to let it out. Don’t hold back.”

 

All people finally came back to earth and surrounded him, asking with concern,

 

“Your Majesty (Father), are you okay?”

 

“Are you feeling better now?”

 

“Do you still feel unwell?”

 

Everybody spoke and almost crowded Shen Luo out from the bedside.

 

At last, Shen Luo couldn’t bear to see that and stated coldly, “His Majesty needs to have a rest. Please be quiet, everybody.”

 

As the doctor ordered, even though all people present were big shots in the Mo Country, they obediently shut up and didn’t dare to say more.

 

There were only Mo Xiangbin’s loud coughs in the room.

 

After quite a while, Mo Xiangbin finally stopped coughing but was still in a daze.

 

He stared at the faces with concern beside his bed and asked in confusion, “What’s wrong with me?”

 

Shen Luo gave him a professional explanation. “Your emotions changed a lot these days and you didn’t have enough rest. What’s more, you always worked hard for a long time in the past, and all the minor illnesses were hidden. Just now you couldn’t insist, so you had a stroke.

 

“Although you have woken up now, you still need a long time to rest, so that you will recover gradually.”

 

“As Doctor Shen said, you need to take care, Father!” Mo Junhao jostled his way through the crowd first and came to the bedside, looking at Mo Xiangbin with concern.

 

Liang Jingxian refused to admit being inferior and also elbowed several royal doctors out of the way, shouting in a sharp voice, “Your Majesty, how are you feeling now? Should the royal doctors take the pulse for you?”

 

In the final analysis, she still didn’t trust Shen Luo’s medical skills.

 

Mo Xiangbin’s head was still in a mess, and it was difficult for him to hear Shen Luo’s words, but there were harsh buzzes around his ears from time to time.

 

He felt a serious headache and interrupted them angrily, “Shut up, all of you.”

 

Everybody stopped talking suddenly, like a duck whose neck was pinched.

 

Mo Xiangbin took a deep breath and slowly remembered what had happened before he fainted. He couldn’t help but clench his fists and suddenly raised his head, asking the people present, “Did Junjiu really…”

 

Even a vicious tiger would not eat its cubs, even though in the beginning, Mo Xiangbin showed that he was so angry at Mo Junjiu.

 

Facing the life and death, he was just an ordinary father.

 

He felt heartbroken to lose his son.

 

Mo Xiangbin was a man but sobbed even before saying the word “die”.

 

All people didn’t dare to reply. They looked at one another and then lowered their heads, keeping silent.

 

At last, Ling Ruiyin expressed in a warm voice, “Your Majesty, now you just need to have a good rest and keep healthy. Don’t care about anything else. Leave everything to your subordinates temporarily.”

 

Her words indirectly admitted the truth that Mo Junjiu had died.

 

Mo Xiangbin felt dizzy again, but this time, he straightened his back and nobody noticed that.

 

When he felt better, he raised his hand to cover his face, showing that he didn’t want to see anybody. Then he ordered in a hoarse voice, “All of you, go out first. I want to have a good rest.”

 

Ling Ruiyin wanted to comfort him, but it looked like Mo Xiangbin was unwilling to talk.

 

She had to leave two young eunuchs to serve him and then tell all the doctors to wait outside. Then she worriedly led the others to leave his bedroom.

 

When all people walked out of the door, Mo Xiangbin suddenly demanded, “Junyang, don’t leave now. Come over.”

 

Everybody was stunned and even Mo Junyang had a surprised expression flashing in his eyes.

 

However, Mo Xiangbin didn’t give them a chance to question but told Quan to ask them to leave.

 

Even though all people were curious about why Mo Xiangbin told Mo Junyang to stay, they had to walk out of the bedroom one after another.

 

Shi Qingxue prepared to go back home to have a look, but Mo Junhao stopped her in the imperial garden.

 

“Your Highness, what can I do for you?” Shi Qingxue didn’t want to cope with Mo Junhao and even her tone was cold obviously.

 

Mo Junhao seemed not to feel it and the smile on his handsome face was gentle with love. “We cooperated not long ago, Qingxue, and you said that you owed me a favor. Why are you so cold to me as we haven’t seen each other for only one day?”

 

Shi Qingxue knew well about Mo Junhao and was not surprised as he suddenly asked her to return a favor.

 

She just asked calmly and indifferently, “What do you want?”

 

She didn’t try to deny what she had said. She owed Mo Junhao a favor indeed because of Dong Hui, and she was willing to return it, but if Mo Junhao wanted more, she couldn’t give him.

 

Mo Junhao still wanted to get close to Qingxue and intentionally didn’t speak out what he wanted. Instead, he smiled insincerely. “What are you talking about? Qingxue, I just want to get close to you and don’t want you to repay me.

 

“God knows about my love for you, and you should know it.”

 

Shi Qingxue didn’t speak.

 

She couldn’t help but remember what happened in the past. If she heard that Junhao who she respected and admired most expressed his feelings for her in the past, she would be overjoyed.

 

Then she would rush into Mo Junhao’s arms without hesitation, which meant she push herself into an abyss.

 

“Gee!” Shi Qingxue sighed with emotion in a low voice.

 

She didn’t give Mo Junhao a response, but she showed a sarcastic smile on her face involuntarily.

 

Needless to say anything, she expressed her disdain clearly.

 

Even though Mo Junhao was thick-skinned, he was embarrassed in front of Shi Qingxue who behaved like this.

 

He stiffened and couldn’t continue to speak.

 

After ignoring Mo Junhao for a while, Shi Qingxue was finally fed up with his hypocritical face. Then she stated slowly, “I have said that I owe you a favor, and I won’t break my promise. Your Highness, if you need me to do anything, I will try my best…”

 

But it should be reasonable.

 

Shi Qingxue didn’t speak out the last words, but the indifferent expression on her face showed everything.

 

Mo Junhao paused and couldn’t speak after a long time.

 

He originally imagined that he would get closer to Shi Qingxue because of Dong Hui’s issue and then mention their good memories to arouse her love for him. At last he would propose marriage to her…

 

Everything would be natural.

 

However, Shi Qingxue’s cold and distant attitude made him defeated in the beginning.

 

Mo Junhao saw clearly that Shi Qingxue didn’t like him but even hated him.

 

She wouldn’t change her mind.

 

Mo Junhao’s eyes became cold in an instant and he stared at Shi Qingxue, asking in a fearful voice, “Qingxue, you love Junyang so much and don’t even spare a glance for my love.

 

“But I don’t know if he can repay you as much in the future. After all, for his sake, you even lied to my grandma.”
