Chapter 143 He'd rather die than let her live.
Feng Bai's heart trembled, but he forced himself to calm down and took Song Siyao's pulse.
"It's the Heavenly Heart Poison!"
Feng Bai's hand paused, and he could no longer restrain himself; a hint of panic flashed in his eyes.
"No matter what kind of poison it is, Physician Feng, you must cure Princess Ning'an. I will agree to any conditions!" Emperor Changlong said solemnly.
Feng Bai's eyes instantly reddened. "Your Majesty, this is my master. I want to save her more than anyone else, but the Heavenly Heart Poison is incurable."
"What did you say?" Emperor Changlong asked incredulously.
"The Heavenly Heart Poison has no cure." Feng Bai's face was pale, and his voice was weak.
"Impossible! Sister Song will be alright, she can't die!" Jiang Hexia grabbed Feng Bai's sleeve and pleaded, "Dr. Feng, you are our only hope now. You must find a way to save Sister Song."
Feng Bai remained motionless, as if frozen in place.
"A blood transfusion? I've heard that poisoned people can have their blood transfused. I'm willing to give all my blood to Princess Ning'an," Huo Ye said firmly.
He didn't understand toxicology, but he had read some miscellaneous books that mentioned this, saying that blood transfusions could detoxify and bring people back to life.
All he knew was that if he could, he would give his life for Song Siyao's.
"No." Feng Bai rejected Huo Ye's suggestion.
"Why not? Doctor Feng, you can't think of any better way, why not try this folk remedy? What if it works? I'm willing to give my life, you can try it without worry." Huo Ye was anxious.
Feng Bai looked at him seriously and said, "Heavenly Heart Poison can kill a person instantly once they are poisoned, and there is no cure to this day. If a blood transfusion could really bring my master back to life, I would have given my blood to my master long ago without you having to do it."
Huo Ye was at a loss for words. He was so anxious that he paced back and forth, wishing he could suffer in Song Siyao's place.
For a moment, the atmosphere inside the hall became extremely oppressive, so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness, please don't be so sad. Princess Ning'an's condition is a loss for the Great Zhou Dynasty, something none of us wanted to see. However, life and death are in the hands of fate, so it's best to let Princess Ning'an rest in peace as soon as possible."
Grand Tutor Su appeared to be offering words of comfort, but in reality, he was overjoyed.
Song Siyao is dead.
Song Siyao is finally dead!
Shen Pei raised his eyes to look at Grand Tutor Su, his gaze sharp as knives, each one a scathing attack on Grand Tutor Su.
Su Taifu's breath hitched, and Shen Pei, whose legs had recovered, had an even stronger aura than before.
Just one glance was enough for him to feel the presence of death.
Emperor Changlong also had a cold face and frowned, his gaze toward Grand Tutor Su was extremely unfriendly.
Grand Tutor Su felt extremely uncomfortable, his face full of embarrassment.
"Your Majesty, I wish to bring my master home." Feng Bai's voice was low and filled with unspeakable sorrow.
"No," Emperor Changlong refused. "I will search the entire land for renowned physicians; surely someone can cure the Heavenly Heart Poison!"
He couldn't let Song Siyao die.
“She’s not dead, she won’t die!” Shen Pei, who had been silent all along, finally spoke up.
"Pei'er, what do you mean by that?" Emperor Changlong asked.
"Before she lost consciousness, she pressed her acupoints and said she was poisoned and that there must be a way to detoxify her, but we just don't know it," Shen Pei explained.
Upon hearing this, Feng Bai's eyes lit up again.
"Your Highness, you said my master acupunctured himself before falling into a coma?"
Shen Pei nodded and named the acupoints that Song Siyao had applied.
Feng Bai suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. My master didn't die. She sealed her acupoints, causing her heart to stop beating, making it look like she was dead. In fact, she's still alive."
"You're saying your master faked his death?" Shen Pei asked.
“Yes, I’m sure.” Feng Bai’s tone instantly became very light.
"Dr. Feng, can't you tell whether your master sealed his heart meridian with acupressure or died truly? Didn't you notice it when you took his pulse at the beginning?"
Grand Tutor Su's tone was cold and stern, "You must know that Miss Song is not only your teacher, but also the Princess Ning'an of the Great Zhou!"
He seemed to care about Song Siyao, but in reality, he wanted to confirm whether Song Siyao was really dead.
"I can't tell who my master is. She sealed my heart meridian with acupressure, how could I possibly tell?" Feng Bai retorted directly.
He couldn't detect a heartbeat when he took Song Siyao's pulse. In addition, the Heavenly Heart Poison was extremely potent, and anyone poisoned by it would die. He also didn't know that Song Siyao had used acupressure before losing consciousness.
Grand Tutor Su's expression was icy, and he remained speechless.
He looked at Song Siyao, whose eyes were closed, and his gaze grew even colder.
What's the use of sealing off the heart meridian?
Feng Bai said there is no antidote for the Heavenly Heart Poison, and Song Siyao has already been poisoned and is doomed to die!
Shen Pei asked Feng Bai, "If what you say is true, your master only sealed her heart meridian, then do you have a way to detoxify her?"
Feng Bai shook his head. "No."
Huo Ye was anxious and angry. "What's the difference between what you said and what you didn't say? Even if Princess Ning'an seals her heart meridian, you still can't save her. What will she do? Are you expecting her to save herself?"
Feng Bai wasn't angry; instead, he calmly said, "You're right."
"What? I'm right?" Huo Ye was furious. "Feng Bai, the person who's unconscious right now is your master. She's already unconscious, how can she save herself? What kind of joke are you talking about? Is it because your medical skills are bad and you're too ashamed to admit it?"
Feng Bai looked at Huo Ye, and if it weren't for the fact that Huo Ye genuinely cared about Song Siyao, he would have really wanted to say something to him.
He suppressed his anger, "Young Master Huo, you underestimate my master. The fact that she was able to seal her heart meridian before she fell into a coma proves that she already knew she had been poisoned by the Heavenly Heart Poison. Therefore, she must have had a way to save herself."
Huo Ye was unconvinced and pressed, "How can she save herself? Tell me now, how can someone who is unconscious detoxify herself?"
Feng Bai didn't know either.
However, he was Song Siyao's apprentice, he understood Song Siyao, knew her style of doing things, and trusted her.
"Stop arguing!" Shen Pei said.
Huo Ye still had a cold face and was still unconvinced, but he knew that arguing would not solve the problem, so he chose to remain silent.
Shen Pei looked at Emperor Changlong and continued, "Father, I wish to stay here with Princess Ning'an."
He chose to believe Feng Bai's words and to believe that Song Siyao could save herself.
Emperor Changlong nodded, "I grant permission."
He believed in his son and that Shen Pei wouldn't do anything meaningless.
All he needs to do is support him.
“I want to stay too,” Huo Ye said.
Shen Pei looked at Huo Ye with a chilling gaze.
Huo Ye quickly changed his words, "Princess Ning'an needs to rest now, and it's not good for there to be too many people here. I'll go out and see if there's anything I can help with."
After Emperor Changlong left, the others followed suit.
Only Song Siyao and Shen Pei remained in the hall.
"Yaoyao, you must try your best to wake up. I believe in you, you can do it."
"Shake it."
Shen Pei held Song Siyao's hand tightly.
Meanwhile, Song Siyao was inside the Soul-Capturing Bracelet...
