Just like yesterday, Yan Muyun gave Qian Manman acupuncture to reduce her fever.

After Qian Manman woke up, she still didn't remember anything and didn't feel any unwell.

This strange symptom occurred for several days in a row, and Su invited several other influential imperial physicians, but none of them could diagnose the cause of Qian Manman's illness.

After Qian Manman's fever subsided, her time spent awake went from a full day to half a day, and the time she spent awake was getting shorter and shorter.

If things continue like this, there is a high possibility that he will remain in a coma and unable to wake up.

The best doctors in Dafeng were helpless, and Yan Muxi spent a large sum of money to hire a witch doctor from outside to treat Qian Manman, but it was still useless.

However, in just ten days, Qian Manman seemed to have been drained of her energy and spirit, and her face became haggard and she lost weight rapidly.

Yan Muxi would sit in front of the bed for a long time every day, hoping for a miracle to happen.

Unfortunately, until A Niang fell into a coma and never woke up again, she still didn't wait for any miracle.

"Yinxia, ​​prepare some paper and pen!"

Looking at the young lady who seemed to have lost her soul, Yin Xia felt very distressed. "Young lady, have you made up your mind? Once the old master knows about the lady's illness, he will definitely do everything he can to protect the lady."

Yan Muxi suppressed the tears in her eyes and said, "I can't do anything. I can't protect my mother... Go get some paper and pen!"

She knew that there was something strange about her mother's illness, and it was most likely a way for her father to control her grandfather.

But she didn't dare to gamble. If anything happened to her mother, her grandfather would not be able to bear it. Even if she gave away everything she had, she would not be able to give him a living daughter.

The letter was sent out in the morning, and in the evening I learned that grandpa had already arrived in Luodu.

Mother Liu sent a letter to Jiangnan early in the morning, but the letter was intercepted by Yan Muxi. Grandpa was able to arrive so early, he must have learned about Mother's illness from somewhere else.

Come to think of it, since Yan Yongchen wanted to use my mother to force my grandfather to submit, how could he not tell my grandfather that my mother was seriously ill?

Upon learning that grandpa was already outside the gate, Yan Muxi ran out of the house.

But when she saw her grandfather standing next to the carriage, she stood still with her head down and did not dare to go forward. She was afraid that her grandfather would blame her for not protecting her mother.

Qian Chongguang was a tall and strong man with a dark complexion and a full beard. He looked more like a warrior than a businessman.

He strode closer and looked at Yan Muxi with a smile, "I haven't seen you for two years. Did you forget about Grandpa? Why haven't you come yet?"

Hearing Ri Si Meng's voice, all Yan Muxi's timidity and scruples disappeared, and she trotted over to hug him.

"Grandpa, Grandpa... I'm sorry, I didn't protect Mom, I was useless..." The tears that had been suppressed for so long could no longer be restrained and burst out.

Qian Chongguang rubbed the little head on his chest, trying to suppress the sobs in his throat, "Silly child, don't blame yourself! Grandpa couldn't protect someone at his age, how old are you? Grandpa's Xixi has done a good job, no girl can do better than you... Your mother will be fine, leave the rest to Grandpa!"

Yan Muxi burst into tears and looked at Grandpa with tearful eyes, "No, I really can't kill him."

Qian Chongguang interrupted sternly, "No! Xixi, remember, Grandpa doesn't lack money. Don't take risks on problems that can be solved with money, and you can't take risks!"

He put away the smile on his face and looked towards the depths of the government office. No matter how well he concealed his expression, he couldn't hide his bloodshot eyes.

A father who loves his daughter but cannot protect her is destined to be controlled by others.

"That's enough. We haven't seen each other for two years. You're almost turning into a little crybaby!" The speaker was an ordinary-looking middle-aged woman, who was Minghui, the person Yan Muxi had been thinking about.

"Aunt Ming!" Yan Muxi came out of her grandfather's arms and hugged Minghui while sobbing.

Minghui patted her back lovingly, "Xixi has grown taller, but the inside has become more and more backward. You cry more shamelessly than a three-year-old child. But don't cry, it hurts Aunt Ming's heart when I cry. If you don't believe me, touch it!"

Yan Muxi was so amused that she burst into laughter, but the smile only lasted for a moment. "By the way, Aunt Ming, please go check on my mother! She has been in a coma since yesterday and has not woken up since then."

The group hurried to Manweiyuan, and when they saw their lifeless daughter lying on the bed, Qian Chongguang's eyes instantly turned red.

After sending away the irrelevant people, Minghui did not dare to rest for a moment. She first checked Qian Manman's pulse, then took a small white porcelain bottle that was only as thick as a finger, pierced Qian Manman's finger with a silver needle, and aimed the mouth of the porcelain bottle at the bleeding place.

The magical thing was that the blood seemed to be guided into the porcelain bottle, and the white bottle body turned blood red visibly to the naked eye.

When the blood volume was almost gone, Minghui put away the porcelain bottle. After a short while, the porcelain bottle returned to its original white color.

Without waiting for anyone to ask, Minghui said bluntly: "Man'er is not sick, nor is she poisoned, but she has been bewitched."

Yan Muxi was surprised, "But the witch doctor we invited before didn't find any poisonous insects in A Niang's body."

Minghui explained: "Witchcraft is not like medicine. It requires extremely demanding innate conditions. The level of witch doctors varies greatly. Low-level witch doctors cannot detect the poisonous insects planted by high-level witch doctors, let alone remove them."

Yan Muxi asked anxiously, "Aunt Ming was able to detect the poison in A Niang's body, so could she have cured her of the poison?"

Minghui shook her head. "The poison planted by a high-level witch doctor can only be cured by the witch doctor alone."

The reason is simple. The witch doctor has been feeding the poisonous worm with his own blood since the egg stage. The poisonous worm is spiritual and only recognizes the blood of its owner.

Before Yan Muxi's hope could even rise up, it was shattered again. He stood there dejectedly without saying a word.

Qian Chongguang seemed to have expected this. He raised his hand and stroked her hair. "Xixi, don't worry too much. Your mother will be fine."

Then he turned to look at Minghui, "Girl Hui, is there any way to delay the onset of the poison?"

Minghui nodded, "Yes, but she can only last half a month at most. If the poisonous insect in Man'er's body cannot be removed within half a month, she will eventually die of exhaustion."

No matter how much Qian Chongguang loved his daughter, he could do nothing about it.

If you don't know how to judge people and fall into a ghost cave, you will not be able to escape and will be sucked of your energy by the evil ghosts.

Fortunately, he can provide his daughter with a constant supply of energy, so her life can always be saved.

In the side hall, only the grandfather and grandson were there. Qian Chongguang asked, "Does Xixi want to move into Prince Rong's mansion?"

"It's good to be in Prince Rong's mansion. Grandpa doesn't have to worry too much. I'm not my mother. I can live well anywhere."

Looking at his granddaughter's forced smile, Qian Chongguang felt extremely distressed and regretful.

When I found my granddaughter, I should have hidden her secretly instead of pushing her in front of others considering my daughter's situation.

Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in the world. It is extremely difficult to climb out once you fall into the devil's den. He has no other choice but to try his best to make it up to the little girl.

He took out a purse from his waist and handed it to Yan Muxi, "Grandpa prepared this dowry for you in advance, keep it well!"

Yan Muxi opened her purse, which contained two cylindrical pendants made of black stone. There were tiny characters engraved on the end of the cylinder, like a seal.

She asked in confusion, "What is this?"

"Grandpa left you the tricks, so be sure to keep them well and don't lose them. I'll tell you how to use them in the future."

Qian Chongguang actually wanted to say that it would be best if it was not used at all. If one had to use the back-up plan, it meant that the road ahead was really difficult.

Even if it meant wasting the backup plan he had painstakingly arranged, he didn't want his granddaughter to suffer unnecessarily. The best way was for her to live a smooth and happy life.
