"Your Majesty, please persevere." Jiang Xue prayed silently in her heart, her eyes revealing unquestionable determination and hope.

Turning to look at Bai Yufeng, she said softly, "Mr. Bai, it's up to you from now on." Originally, she planned to let the imperial doctors take over the follow-up work, but considering that Bai Yufeng was here, she trusted this genius doctor with superb medical skills even more.

Bai Yufeng nodded when he heard this, indicating that he understood. He knew that the next task would be equally difficult, but he would also do his best.

"Miss Jiang, what do we need to do?" Upon seeing this, the imperial doctors came forward to ask, hoping to contribute their own efforts in the process of saving the emperor.

Jiang Xue smiled slightly and "turned" out a delicate porcelain bottle from her arms again. This was the spiritual spring water she had prepared in advance. "I'll write a prescription and you can use this water to boil it. This water is specially made by me and can enhance the efficacy of the medicine. It will be of great benefit to your majesty's recovery." As she spoke, she walked to the table, quickly wrote down the prescription, and handed it to the imperial doctors.

Then, Jiang Xue walked to the door, gently opened it, and stepped out of the bedroom. Outside the door, it was already dark, but the moonlight was bright, bringing a hint of tranquility to the tense atmosphere.

"Xue'er, how is father?" Not long after leaving the house, she heard an anxious voice. Jiang Xue turned around and saw Xuan Yuchen rushing over.

"Where is Lord Ying?" Jiang Xue did not answer the prince's question directly, but looked around, looking for Ying Yan. She knew that Ying Yan, as the emperor's personal bodyguard, should also be present at this time.

"I'm here." Ying Yan's voice came from a tall tree. He jumped down lightly and landed in front of Jiang Xue. Under the moonlight, his figure looked particularly tall and mysterious.

"Lord Ying, His Majesty's condition is temporarily stable, but still needs close observation." Jiang Xue briefly reported the situation to Ying Yan. At the same time, she was secretly glad that there was a master like Ying Yan by her side to ensure the safety of the bedroom.

Yingyan nodded and said that he would be more vigilant.

"I'm going to make medicine later. This medicine is extremely important, and I need you to be present to supervise and make sure everything goes well." Jiang Xue emphasized again, her eyes revealing unquestionable seriousness.

"Miss Jiang Xue means..." Ying Yan repeated, as if wanting to confirm whether he understood correctly.

Jiang Xue nodded vigorously and explained, "Just now, when I was giving acupuncture to Your Majesty, I accidentally discovered the presence of toxins, and according to my judgment, the poison has only recently invaded. We must be cautious and not leave anyone an opportunity to take advantage of us."

"I understand." Ying Yan heard this, and the cruelty in his eyes became even more intense. He clenched his fists, and a strong anger and determination surged in his heart. He didn't expect that in this palace, there would be someone who dared to poison His Majesty. It was so bold!

"By the way, let someone invite the queen over." Jiang Xue suddenly changed the subject and made a new request.

"What's the purpose?" Yingyan asked puzzledly. He knew that time was running out and every action needed to have a clear purpose.

"He will be given medicine later. As outsiders, it is not appropriate for you and I to be present. His Majesty's life is hanging by a thread right now. The Queen, as his closest person, should stay by his side." Jiang Xue explained. Her voice was soft but firm, revealing her respect for the Queen and her deep affection for His Majesty.

"Xue'er, I will go and invite the Queen now." At this time, Prince Xuan Yuchen, who had been silent all the time, spoke.

Jiang Xue smiled and nodded, expressing her approval of Xuan Yuchen's initiative.

Yingyan looked at Xuan Yuchen's departing back, feeling a little helpless.

He didn't expect that the usually aloof Crown Prince would be so different in front of Jiang Xue, and even referred to himself as "I". In his opinion, this was similar to the deep affection that His Majesty had for the Queen.

He shook his head, put these thoughts aside for the time being, turned and walked into the depths of the room, ready to start the next step.

"Who is the imperial physician who prepared the medicine? I'll go with you." Ying Yan's voice rang out in the room, with unquestionable majesty.

The imperial physician was shocked when he heard this. He looked up at Ying Yan, and saw that his eyes were as sharp as an eagle, as if he could see through people's hearts. He replied tremblingly, "Yes... it's me."

Yingyan frowned, somewhat dissatisfied with the doctor's nervous attitude. But he also understood that this was not the time to worry about these things. He strode towards the doctor and said in a deep voice: "Let's go and boil the medicine together. Remember, there can't be any mistakes in every step."

The imperial physician nodded repeatedly and followed behind Yingyan, taking every step carefully. He knew that he was shouldering a heavy responsibility at the moment, and the slightest mistake could endanger the life of His Majesty. And Yingyan's aura, which was even more terrifying than that of the crown prince, made him dare not slack off even a little.

The imperial physician followed Yingyan through the winding corridor and came to the secret room where medicinal materials were brewed for the royal family. The environment here was quiet, and the air was filled with a faint medicinal fragrance. Rows of shelves were filled with various herbs, each of which was carefully selected and preserved.

As soon as Yingyan entered the room, he quickly scanned the area to ensure the safety and cleanliness of the environment. He knew very well that the purity of the medicinal materials and the degree of decoction were directly related to the efficacy of the medicine, and there was no room for carelessness.

"Give me the prescription and the herbs in your hand." Ying Yan said to the imperial physician with unquestionable majesty in his tone.

The imperial physician quickly took out the prescription and herbs from his arms and presented them to him with both hands. Yingyan took the prescription and checked it carefully. After confirming that it was correct, he checked the herbs one by one. He gently touched each herb with his hands, feeling its texture and moisture, to ensure that they were in the best condition.

"Begin, follow my instructions." Ying Yan said to the imperial physician, and he also began to prepare. He skillfully picked up the pestle and processed the herbs that needed to be ground one by one. His movements were fast and steady, revealing his profound medical skills.

Seeing this, the imperial physician did not dare to be negligent and quickly followed Yingyan's instructions to start the fire, add water, and control the heat. The two cooperated well, and the whole cooking process was carried out in an orderly manner.

As time went by, the medicinal soup gradually became thicker, and the aroma of medicine filled the entire secret room. Yingyan kept an eye on the changes in the medicinal soup, stirring it with a spoon from time to time to ensure that the medicinal materials could be fully dissolved and release the effective ingredients.

Finally, after careful preparation, the medicine soup became deep in color and mellow in smell. Yingyan nodded with satisfaction and said to the imperial physician, "Okay, the medicine has been prepared. You carefully put it into the jade pot and keep it warm. We will send it to His Majesty right away."

The imperial physician responded quickly and began to operate carefully.
