Chapter 687: Chapter 686: In This Life, I Will Not Want a Second Woman

Xiaoyao was locked up.

Feng Jinrui listened to her words and went back to check on Fu Ning first.

As for Chu Qianli and Feng Yexuan.

Feng Yexuan had been keeping a cold face, probably because the Empress Dowager’s condition was extremely bleak, so he didn’t have the heart to pay much attention to anything else.

Chu Qianli went in and saw that the Empress Dowager was indeed still unconscious.

Liujin seemed to have not many solutions.

"Your Majesty, you have exceptional medical skills; do you perhaps have a method..."

"Cough, cough, cough..." Chu Qianli suddenly started coughing, so fiercely that she began to tremble.

"Your Majesty, are you... not feeling well?" Liujin looked at her in astonishment.

Chu Qianli hurriedly said, "Sorry, I’ve indeed been unwell these past few days."

But she still went over, sat by the bed, and took the Empress Dowager’s hand.

This hand, chillingly cold, as if devoid of warmth.

Chu Qianli took her pulse; the palpitations were intermittent, it was clear that the person was nearing the end.

And from the Empress Dowager’s mouth, came a muffled calling, as if summoning someone.

Chu Qianli’s brow unwittingly furrowed.

This dying old hag, others may not know, but she was very clear in her heart.

She was calling for "Linglong."

The woman was close to death and still dared to ruin her good deeds!

"I’ll try to give her acupuncture," Chu Qianli said, taking out a needle pack from her pocket, about to administer the needle to the Empress Dowager.

But before the silver needle could pierce the skin, she began to cough again.

The coughing was so violent that she couldn’t even hold the needle steady.

"Your Majesty, how can you perform acupuncture on the Empress Dowager in your current state?" Liujin asked anxiously.

Feng Yexuan waved his hand, his face ashen, "You go back and rest first. Let Liujin take care of the Empress Dowager."

"Yexuan, are you blaming me?" Chu Qianli put away the needle, looking at him with an aggrieved face, "I didn’t mean to..."

"I’m not blaming you," Feng Yexuan stated, "I am only blaming myself for not taking good care of the Empress Dowager."

Feng Yexuan was reluctant to say more.

Chu Qianli had no choice but to stand up.

Although Feng Yexuan was in a bad mood, perhaps feeling a little guilty towards her, he unexpectedly escorted her out himself this time.

When they reached the gate of Wuzhou Garden, Feng Yexuan suddenly stopped, staring at her, "In this lifetime, this prince will not take another woman besides Lili!"

His words were lightly said, but they resounded profoundly.

Chu Qianli was shaken, wanting to ask further, but he had already turned and left.

Yet at that moment, her mood soared to heaven.

He was making her a promise! Although the promise didn’t seem so sincere after what had happened with Xiaoyao.

But as long as it was a promise made by him, Chu Qianli believed that he would definitely keep it in the future!

It seemed that the matter with Xiaoyao had made him feel somewhat guilty towards her.

Chu Qianli’s expression immediately softened, "Yexuan, I know I was not by your side for a period before, which gave those women a chance to take advantage."

"From now on, I will stay by your side and will not let you have the chance to be lonely anymore, ok?"

Feng Yexuan looked at her, his deep eyes inscrutable.

But in the end, he nodded, "Alright."

"The Empress Dowager’s condition is still uncertain, I need to go back and stay with her."

"I understand. I need to visit the palace and take the Emperor’s pulse for safety. I will come back early."

Chu Qianli gave him a tender smile, reassuring him to hurry back to the Empress Dowager, before she and Hongchou left together.

This time, they changed to a brand new carriage.

Leaving the Prince Residence, rolling along the bustling streets, Hongchou finally lowered her voice, "Your Majesty, are we really going to let them... treat the Empress Dowager like this?"

What if the Empress Dowager actually woke up?

This move was meant to drown the Empress Dowager at the bottom of the lake.

Who knew that Feng Yexuan would suddenly return and rescue the Empress Dowager? If he had arrived just a moment later, she would have definitely not held on.

Then they would have witnesses to prove that Xiaoyao crashed the carriage into the lake and didn’t attempt a rescue.

That maid would be the perfect witness.

Such a pity!

Yet Chu Qianli curled her lips into a smile, chilling and sharp as ice, "Why worry? I’ve already taken the old hag’s pulse; with that pulse, she has no chance of recovering."
