Duke Xu saw Xu Chen kneeling down for a woman, and said to Xu Chen with a shocked face, "You kneel down for a woman, is it worth it?"

Xu Chen said to Duke Xu, "Father, that woman is not someone else, but your son's wife. If you don't do this, how will outsiders view you?"

When Duke Xu heard Xu Chen's words, his heart trembled slightly, and a solemn look appeared on his face. He looked at Xu Chen carefully, then slowly said: "Okay, don't worry, I will definitely help you." After that, he personally helped Xu Chen up and looked at him firmly.

Xu Chen stood up and said to Duke Xu, "Thank you, father."

Duke Xu laughed at Xu Chen and said, "Good! Good! Good! As long as you come back, our Xu family will unite as one. Then no matter who it is, no one can shake the status of our Duke Xu Mansion in front of His Majesty."

Xu Chen said to Duke Xu, "Don't worry, father. I will definitely work hard."

At this time, the housekeeper came and saluted to Duke Xu and Xu Chen, then said to Duke Xu, "Duke, Doctor Li is here."

Duke Xu said to Xu Chen, "Chen'er, don't worry. Doctor Li is the most famous detoxification expert in the Imperial Hospital. He will definitely be able to cure your wife."

Xu Chen said to Duke Xu, "Thank you, father."

After Duke Xu finished speaking, he said to the housekeeper, "Quickly invite Doctor Li to the eldest young master's courtyard."

After that, he said to Xu Chen, "Chen'er, you should go as well. Come to see father if you have anything. If father is not here, you can look for your second brother."

Xu Chen said to Duke Xu, "Yes! Father, your son left first."

Duke Xu nodded, and Xu Chen left with the butler!

When Xu Chen returned to his courtyard, he saw a doctor wearing a turquoise official uniform with wide sleeves and hems that fell to the ground. The uniform was embroidered with exquisite cloud patterns, which made it look solemn and elegant.

The man had a kind face, with a few wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, revealing his rich experience. He had a long beard, trimmed neatly. His eyes were wise and calm.

He wore a black square scarf with a piece of white jade inlaid on it. The jade shone gently, which made him look noble. The doctor walked steadily and with an upright posture.

As soon as Xu Chen saw the person coming, he knew that this was the Imperial Doctor Li that Duke Xu had mentioned.

The housekeeper smiled at Doctor Li and said, "Thank you, Doctor, for coming to our Duke's Mansion."

Doctor Li smiled and said to the housekeeper, "That's right. The Duke is usually very nice to me. Since the Duke has something to do, I should do it myself!"

The housekeeper smiled and said to Doctor Li, "Doctor Li, this is the eldest son of our Duke's Mansion, Lord Xu, the Minister of Rites."

When Doctor Li heard what the housekeeper said, he immediately bowed to Xu Chen and said, "Your humble servant greets you, Lord Xu!"

Xu Chen quickly returned the greeting and said, "Doctor Li, you are too polite. My wife has troubled Doctor Li."

Doctor Li quickly said to Xu Chen, "Don't bother me, don't bother me."

After that, Xu Chen said to Doctor Li, "Please!"

Doctor Li followed Xu Chen in, and the housekeeper followed them in!

When Doctor Li saw Su Yao lying on the bed, her face was pale and there was a trace of blood oozing from the wound. The blood had a hint of black in color. Doctor Li's expression tensed up and he hurried forward to feel Su Yao's pulse!

After a long time, Doctor Li took back his hand. Seeing this, Xu Chen immediately asked Doctor Li, "Doctor Li, can you help my wife?"

Doctor Li said to Xu Chen, "Master Xu, let's go outside and talk."

Xu Chen nodded and followed Doctor Li out. As soon as he got out, Xu Chen asked anxiously, "Doctor Li, what happened?"

Doctor Li said helplessly to Xu Chen, "Master Xu, please accept my condolences. Madam's wound has not healed yet because of the poison in her body. The poison in her body is very difficult to cure. Although part of it has been cured, most of the poison is still around her wound, so her wound is not easy to heal. If this continues, Madam will bleed to death. Therefore, I have no way to cure the poison. Therefore, Madam's wound is not healed well!"

When Xu Chen heard what Doctor Li said, he felt that his last hope was gone. Xu Chen said to Doctor Li, "Can my wife still wake up?"

Doctor Li shook his head and said, "Madam Sun is very weak now. It is unlikely that she will wake up."

Xu Chen said to Doctor Li, "Doctor Li, I heard that you are an expert in detoxification. Is there really no way to detoxify?"

Doctor Li shook his head and said to Xu Chen, "I can't do anything. This poison is very tricky and strange. I can't tell what kind of poison it is at the moment. Even if I know what kind of poison it is, your wife's body should not be able to withstand the detoxification process."

Xu Chen said to Doctor Li, "Doctor Li, how long will my wife have?"

Doctor Li said to Xu Chen, "If what I just saw is correct, it should only take one or two days."

When Xu Chen heard what Doctor Li said, he took a step back and almost fell. Fortunately, the housekeeper supported him from behind.

Doctor Li saw Xu Chen like this and said helplessly to him, "Master Xu, please accept my condolences."

After that, Doctor Li said to the housekeeper, "I'll go down and tell Master Bo!"

The butler nodded to Doctor Li, who sighed and left.

The housekeeper supported Xu Chen and said, "Master, you must cheer up!"

Xu Chen sneered and said, "Cheer up, how can you ask me to cheer up?"

The housekeeper said to Xu Chen, "Master, you must cheer up. If you become like this, who will avenge the Master Madam?"

When Xu Chen heard the word "revenge", he immediately stood up and said to the housekeeper, "Yes, revenge. I want to avenge my wife. This is all the fault of the General's Mansion. I must be irreconcilable with the General's Mansion."

The housekeeper nodded and said to Xu Chen, "As long as the young master cheers up, the Duke will definitely help you with the rest!"

Xu Chen said to the housekeeper, "Okay, housekeeper, go tell my father for me. I won't go. I'll stay with my wife."

The housekeeper said to Xu Chen, "Yes! Young Master, be careful. If you have anything to say, just let me know."

Xu Chen nodded and walked straight in!

As soon as Xu Chen entered, the housekeeper left with a helpless look on his face.

As soon as the housekeeper left, Xu Chen walked to the bed and said to Su Yao, "Take the antidote and get ready."

Su Yao sat up, took the green bottle from Xu Chen, and said to Xu Chen, "Thank you, Master!"

Xu Chen said to Su Yao, "Just lie down in bed obediently for the rest of the time. At the latest, you can leave peacefully tomorrow."
