Chapter 333: Poisoned
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Ugh!”
As soon as they reached the door, they heard a violent vomiting sound coming from inside the room.
The servant brought the two of them into the house.
Many candles were lit in the room and the light allowed Su Ying to see clearly the man leaning weakly against the edge of the bed.
He looked about the same age as Xiao Jin, but his bone frame and body size were slightly smaller than Xiao Jin’s. His face was thin, and he looked sickly. He seemed to be in terrible spirits too.
Upon hearing the movement, Wei Siyuan turned toward Su Ying and the others. When he saw that Xiao Jin had arrived, he tried to speak but started coughing violently before he could utter any sound.
The servant nearby immediately went forward to offer him the spittoon. After a while, Wei Siyuan began to vomit violently again.
Xiao Jin’s expression darkened when he saw Wei Siyuan in this state.
When Wei Siyuan finally caught his breath, Xiao Jin stepped forward and asked, “Why is your illness getting worse?”
Wei Siyuan clutched his chest and shook his head. “I’ve taken the medicine, but 1 am not getting better.”
“What illness?” Su Ying walked up and asked.
Wei Siyuan looked at Su Ying with a somewhat conflicted expression.
Before Xiao Jin was exiled, he hated Su Ying the most. He felt that she wasn’t worthy of Xiao Jin, but after the two of them returned, Su Ying seemed to have changed a lot. Xiao Jin had also warned him not to disrespect Su Ying, so when he saw Su Ying, he still acknowledged her with a nod. “You must be Cousin-in-law. Greetings, Cousin-in-law. 1 am Siyuan.”
Su Ying nodded slightly and looked at Xiao Jin. “Tell me about his situation.”
The servant who served Wei Siyuan said, “Your Highness, Young Master Wei fell ill a few days ago. In the beginning, it was like he had a cold. First, he was afraid of the cold, then he had a fever. The fever kept flaring up and subsiding repeatedly. Now, he is vomiting. He can’t eat anything. He will vomit after eating.”
Su Ying saw that Wei Siyuan’s lips were dry and cracked. He was obviously dehydrated.
Su Ying gestured for him to extend his arm for her to check his pulse.
Wei Siyuan was very surprised. He had heard a lot about Su Ying’s “glorious feats” recently, but he had never heard of her being able to treat patients other than getting into fights.
Su Ying checked his pulse attentively. After checking one hand, she gestured for him to extend the other hand.
Her face remained expressionless throughout, making it impossible for people to guess Wei Siyuan’s true condition from the changes in her expression.
“Open your mouth and let me take a look.”
Wei Siyuan obediently opened his mouth, and Su Ying made him stick out his tongue.
“What treatment did the previous doctor give you?”
“He treated me as if 1 caught a cold.”
Su Ying nodded and took out a silver needle and a thin tube for blood samples from the medicine box. “Judging from your pulse, your organs are showing signs of failure, but from the external appearance, 1 can’t tell where the source of the illness is at the moment. 1 need to take a sample of your blood for further examination.”
“Organ failure?” Xiao Jin frowned deeply.
Su Ying nodded. “Mm-hmm. It means his internal organs are not functioning normally. Once this symptom appears, it is a sign of great danger. 1’11 prescribe you medicine to stabilize your condition first, then further investigate the source of the illness.”
Wei Siyuan didn’t know if Su Ying knew how to treat illnesses, but from what she said, she seemed to be quite professional.
Su Ying took out some medicine from the medicine box and fed it to him. Then, she drew his blood and brought it to the room next door.
Xiao Jin accompanied Wei Siyuan in the room while Su Ying went to the room next door and closed the door. Then, she entered the interspatial store and began to conduct tests on the blood sample.
In the end, the blood test results showed that the white blood cell count was very high, and it was mixed with a viral infection.
Su Ying frowned slightly. This was just a basic blood test, and it wasn’t accurate enough.
While Su Ying was conducting the blood test, Wei Siyuan took the medicine Su Ying gave him and felt better.
Ever since he fell ill, he had barely slept well.
“Rest for a while?” Xiao Jin helped him lie down on the bed.
Wei Siyuan looked apologetic as he held Xiao Jin’s hand tightly.
“Elder Cousin, I… I’m not willing to die like this! I… 1 haven’t… haven’t avenged my parents. I can’t go like this!”
Xiao Jin looked at the redness in Wei Siyuan’s eyes and said in a somewhat stern voice, “Don’t let your imagination run wild. Your Cousin-in-law will cure you.”
In truth, Wei Siyuan didn’t hold out too much hope. He had already summoned all the doctors in the capital, but after taking medicine for several days, there were no signs of improvement at all. In fact, his illness had gotten worse. He didn’t believe that Su Ying could be any better than those doctors.
Xiao Jin seemed to have read his mind. “Back then, your Cousin-in-law was the one who cured my two legs.”
Wei Siyuan’s eyes lit up. “Really…”
“Mm-hmm. Just wait patiently.”
The two of them waited until dawn, but Su Ying still hadn’t come out of the room.
After taking the medicine Su Ying gave him that night, Wei Siyuan finally had a good night’s sleep.
However, his body was too weak. As soon as the sun rose, his body reacted again and he started coughing violently.
“Cough! Cough! Cough! Cough! Pfft!”
When Su Ying returned, she was in time to see Wei Siyuan spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Xiao Jin’s expression changed slightly and he raised his head to look at Su Ying somewhat anxiously. “Su Ying, come over and take a look quickly.”
Su Ying was already holding the syringe in her hand and stepped forward to give him an injection.
After receiving the injection, Wei Siyuan’s breathing gradually became even, and his panting sound slowly subsided.
The servant quickly went forward to clean up and changed Wei Siyuan’s clothes and bedding.
After the servant tidied up, Su Ying dissolved a thumb-sized pill in warm water and brought it to Wei Siyuan. “Drink it. This is the antidote.”
Xiao Jin’s expression turned ominous when he heard that. “Antidote? Siyuan was poisoned?”
Su Ying nodded. “Mm-hmm. The poison has already corroded his internal organs. If 1 had come any later, he would have died.”
Wei Siyuan drank the medicine straight from Su Ying’s hand.
However, not long after he drank the medicine, his stomach convulsed and he started vomiting madly again.
The servant quickly brought over a spittoon.
Wei Siyuan almost vomited all his internal organs out. He spat out mouthful after mouthful of foul, stinky liquid that had a sour taste from his stomach. He almost filled the spittoon before he gradually stopped.
After he was almost done vomiting, Su Ying let him lie down and pressed on his abdomen. “Is there any discomfort in your stomach?”
Wei Siyuan shook his head and then nodded. “I can’t say that I’m uncomfortable. 1 just feel that something seems to be shaking around inside.”
Su Ying nodded to show that she understood. She then took out a sterilized scalpel from the medicine box. “Lie down properly and don’t make a fuss.”
Before Wei Siyuan could figure it out, he saw her spray something on his stomach and then stab him with the scalpel.
However, the pain he expected didn’t hit him. He watched helplessly as Su Ying made a small incision in his stomach and then inserted something that looked like a tube into his flesh.
Not long after that, thick black blood flowed out of the tube.
Wei Siyuan’s eyes widened in horror.. “What… what is this? Is it poison?”
