Marry a Duke

Chapter 240: The medicine is useless?

Wei Xuan would often ask her to press on the uncomfortable spots on his body on the pretext that poison was running rampant in his body.

Originally, there was an imperial physician who could help, and he was more proficient in the various acupuncture points on the human body.

But they were all rejected by Wei Xuan.

His reasons are reasonable.

"I don't want anyone touching my body."

She was his wife, and although they had only had sex once, they had a daughter, Wuyou.

But in the past years, they had slept in the same bed, which was different from others.

Fu Ran has no choice but to do his duty.

At night, Fu Ran continued to sleep beside him as a matter of course, and would wake up at the slightest movement.

She was indeed worried about him.

Although I didn't show it on my face, I was very worried.

I was afraid that he would die accidentally.

Even the slightest change in his breathing would wake Fu Ran up.

In the end, Wei Xuan couldn't bear it anymore, so he pressed her sleeping point directly. It was not until the early morning that he released her sleeping point.

Otherwise, she would not be able to sleep well day after day. She was afraid that even if nothing happened to him, she would be the first to die.

"I slept well last night. I didn't seem to hear any movement from you." Fu Ran got up, changed his clothes, wiped Wei Xuan's face, and asked him if he wanted to get up.

If he was in good spirits, she would help him get up and sit in the wheelchair in the morning, and have breakfast while sitting. If the weather was good, she would stay in the yard for a while.

Wei Xuan is taken care of by her in the morning.

"You did feel much better after I pressed on you yesterday." He raised his eyes, his dark pupils deep and dark, looking at him intently, making sure that his complexion had not gotten worse.

Only then did I feel slightly relieved.

She was afraid that she would fall asleep at night and wake up in the morning to find a dead body lying next to her.

How horrifying that is.

She doesn't want Wei Xuan to die now.

Not at all.

She thought it was good that he was alive.

"What do you want for breakfast? I'll go to the kitchen and tell you."

Wei Xuan stretched out his hand with his palm facing up. Fu Ran looked at it for two seconds and put his hand on it. He often did this recently. According to him, he needed to feel the body temperature of others all the time.

After he was poisoned, his body temperature became colder and colder.

Fu Ran felt his coldness and touched his forehead again, with an imperceptible sadness flashing in his eyes.

"What kind of stew would you like today? I'll have someone prepare it."

Wei Xuan gently squeezed the little hand in his palm. It was soft and warm, and indeed very small and cute.

"Let Xiao Ningzi give the instructions. You don't need to do it yourself. Fu Ran, you are my wife. Wait until the poison is cured, and you will be the head of the Duke's Mansion in the future." Mother's body was also severely damaged after this incident.

He should also be considerate of his mother and let her enjoy her life.

Fu Ran also has things she wants to do, so she won't let her mind wander or dwell on the past anymore.

"Okay." Fu Ran responded, but he was still worried about when the poison could be cured.

Fu Ran accompanied him to have breakfast and drink medicine. He stayed in the yard for a while and then asked Jin Zhao to take him into the house.

She went to Qingfuyuan.

Lan Yin is having breakfast now, and Wei Lin is eating with the old lady.

Lan Yin also walked out of Qingyin Courtyard and stayed with the old lady every day.

Wei Nian and Wuyou are both here.

The old lady's mood eased a little.

However, everyone knew that as long as the poison in Wei Xuan's body was not cured, she would never be able to truly relax.

Fu Ran stayed in Qingfuyuan for a while and reported his condition, Wei Xuan, to the old lady. In order to avoid the old lady worrying and also not wanting the old lady to be sad seeing Wei Xuan's appearance every day, Fu Ran would come to Qingfuyuan every day to report Wei Xuan's condition.

After hearing this, the old lady felt a little relieved.

She would also go to see Wei Xuan, but she would often find Wei Xuan asleep.

She didn't want to disturb her son's rest.

After coming out of Qingfuyuan, Fu Ran stayed with Wuyou for a while.

Dong Niang came back from home.

The money she brought made her husband's family very happy, and they encouraged her to work well in the Duke's Mansion and do a good job so that her master would give her more rewards.

"Niang, A Niang Niang——" Wuyou waved his little hands and pounced towards Fu Ran.

Fu Ran took the opportunity to hug his daughter and kissed Wuyou's little face several times.

It’s pink, tender and very kissable.

Wuyou also kissed her with his saliva-covered mouth.

"Wuyou, is it okay for mom to take you to see dad?"

"Ah da ah da."

That's good.

Fu Ran was about to take Wuyou to see Wei Xuan when Xiao Ningzi came to report that Lord Chi came to visit Wei Xuan again.

Fu Ran had no choice but to wait a while before taking Wuyou over.

Let Jin Zhao take Lord Chi over first.

"Is the Duke resting now?"

"Not yet." Jin Zhao said.

"Then take the guest over." Fu Ran only recently found out that Chi Yang and Wei Xuan used to be friends, but it was several years ago.

She thought Chi Yang was quite thoughtful.

Chi Yang walked into the room and sat in the same position as yesterday.

Looking at Wei Xuan holding the scroll in his hand.

Last night, he thought about it all night and felt that things were not simple.

"Brother Wei, tell me honestly, do you have a way to control the poison? Just tell me, don't make me guess." Chi Yang said.

Wei Xuan raised his eyes and glanced at him indifferently.

"I didn't know that Lord Chi has so much free time recently and comes to the Duke's Mansion every day."

"I am injured, am I not? The emperor personally allowed me to recover from my injury. I suffered a lot during the time I was captured and imprisoned." Chi Yang said dissatisfiedly.

The eldest princess is really going too far. She keeps all those people but none of them do their job.

"Do you want me to report to the emperor and then entrust you with an important task?" Wei Xuan said with hidden meaning.

How could Chi Yang not understand?

"I have asked the Emperor to wait until you recover before making other arrangements."

“……” Wei Xuan was too lazy to even look at him.

"Brother Wei, just tell me, if the antidote hasn't arrived yet, how long can you control it at most, so that I can rest assured."

“…….” Wei Xuan just wouldn’t let him feel at ease.

Chi Yang kept pestering her, but still got no news.

He gave up.

"Then I'll go tell your wife and tell her you're pretending in front of her."

Wei Xuan gave him a cold look, his eyes sharp and hurtful.

The corners of Chi Yang's lips trembled.

"If you dare tell her, I'll make you lie down with me."

Chi Yang swallowed.

Really ruthless.

"Forget it, I won't tell her. I don't dare."

Chi Yang came for three consecutive days. On the fourth day, Wei Xuan asked Jin Zhao to guard the door. If Chi Yang came to disturb his rest again, he would just throw him out.

It turned out that Chi Yang couldn't even enter the gate of the Duke's Mansion.

Fu Ran felt that this was too rude.

But let him decide what he wants.

Gao Mian received a letter saying that he had met up with Doctor Hua to continue fighting for the antidote.

Along with the letter came a large bag of medicine prescribed by Dr. Hua.

The letter stated that at this point in time, it no longer mattered whether Wei Xuan took the medicine or not.

However, Doctor Hua still prepared the medicine.

Fu Ran confirmed that the words on the letter were indeed correct.

She totally didn't understand why Doctor Hua wrote the letter in that tone.

"What do you mean it doesn't matter whether I take the medicine or not?" Fu Ran glared at Jin Zhao.

Jin Zhao looked confused.

He is not the Godly Doctor Hua, so he doesn't understand.

"Perhaps, it's because the master has been taking the medicine for a long time, and the toxicity has stabilized."

"Impossible. If Divine Doctor Hua's medicine had such miraculous effects, why would he spend so much time looking for an antidote? He could just stay by Wei Xuan's side and prepare the antidote."

Therefore, it is very likely that Wei Xuan has been taking the medicine for a long time.

His body has developed drug resistance, and these drugs are no longer effective for him.
