Chapter 332: Mother, She is the Girl Her Son Likes
Cheng Shiyin's eyes were deeply attracted by the word "Mother": "Are you my Yu'er?"
Cheng Shiyin's tears were like pearls that had broken off the string. With tears in her eyes, she gently gazed at her son whom she had not seen for ten years. Although her eyes were blurred by tears, she could still vaguely see the outline of the spirited young man back then.
"Mother, I am back! I am an unfilial son, causing you to suffer from illness and pain for so many years. Don't worry, I will make the person who hurt you pay a hundred times or a thousand times the price!"
Cheng Shiyin nervously held Jun Mingyu's hand, looking at her son and old father whom she hadn't seen for ten years, feeling both happy and a little worried: "Father, Yu'er, why are you back?"
After asking, she immediately smiled with relief: "My Yu'er should be back soon."
Cheng Shiyin gently stroked Jun Mingyu's cheek, as if touching a rare treasure: "If mother can see my son again before she dies, mother will have no regrets. Yu'er, you listen to mother, don't be threatened by them, even if you compromise, they will never let us go."
After Cheng Shiyin finished speaking, she turned her gaze to Jun Jingli, her eyes full of expectation: "Your Majesty, you promised me. I don't want you to be controlled by others anymore."
"Shiyin, don't worry, I won't break my promise. I have already written the edict of succession, and I have good news to tell you. Doctor Yun is expected to remove the poisonous insects in your body. Once you are free of the shackles of the poisonous insects, Yu'er and I can rest assured."
Cheng Shiyin no longer had much hope for the poison in her body. She had become indifferent to life and death. She smiled bitterly: "Doctor Yun, don't feel burdened. Just do your best. I understand how powerful this poison is. Even if I can't get rid of it, I won't blame you."
"Don't worry, Queen, I will do my best."
"Your Majesty, if anything happens to me, I beg Your Majesty not to implicate innocent people."
"Don't worry, Shiyin. Even if I want to implicate your son, I won't allow it."
Cheng Shiyin looked at the father and son in confusion.
"Mother, let me introduce someone to you. You will definitely like her." Cheng Yuheng's tone was like a spring breeze, gentle and warm, even a little shy.
Cheng Shiyin looked at her son's expression and understood what was going on. She smiled gently and asked, "Oh! Did Yu'er get married? Do you want to introduce your daughter-in-law to me?"
Jun Mingyu saw Yun Duo standing at the back, so he called softly, "Duo'er, come here and meet the Queen Mother."
As soon as he finished speaking, several pairs of eyes in the secret room looked towards Yun Duo.
Jun Mingyu's action made Yun Duo feel embarrassed and she dug her toes into the ground, wishing she could dig out two bedrooms and a living room. She muttered to herself: Didn't we agree to keep it a secret for the time being? Why did he suddenly come straight? Moreover, it seemed a bit rude for her to go to see the queen in her current outfit.
Jun Mingyu looked at Yun Duo standing there stupidly and called out again: "Duo Er, come here!"
Yun Duo secretly rolled her eyes, walked to the bed, and bowed to the queen: "I, Yun Duo, greet the queen. I wish the queen a speedy recovery."
The queen looked at the woman in front of her. Although she was dressed in men's clothes, she had a delicate appearance. Her big eyes were like clear lake water, and they were smart in the dark blue. When she smiled, they curved into two crescents, and the bright stars were hidden in them. Her eyelashes were long and dense, and they fluttered gently like a small fan.
"What a delicate little girl, come here and let me see you." Cheng Shiyin took Yun Duo's hand and looked at her lovingly.
"Mother, she is the girl my son likes. You must get better soon so that you can go and propose marriage for my son."
Yun Duo was shocked by Jun Mingyu's words. He dared to say that the Yun family would not dare to let the queen of a country go to propose marriage!
Jun Jingli felt a little uncomfortable. His son hadn't even mentioned introducing a woman of his choice to an old father. Everything he knew was found out by someone he had asked.
Although Cheng Shiyin was reluctant in her heart, in order to reassure the three men she cared about most in her life, she still smiled gently and said softly: "Yu'er, you must work hard. When your father was your age, you could already recite the Three Character Classic."
"Yes, mother, so you have to get better soon. Only when you are well can you take care of your grandson."
Lai Fu had already brought in all the prepared items. Yun Hai saw that it was almost time and said, "Your Majesty, Prince, Elder Cheng, Taoist Priest, please wait outside while I drive away the insects for the Empress."
Jun Jingli walked out of the secret room reluctantly, looking back every few steps.
Yun Hai gazed at Cheng Shiyin tenderly and said in a gentle voice, "Don't panic, Queen. Just lie down and I will check on you first."
After he finished speaking, Yun Hai slowly stretched out his right hand and gently placed it on Cheng Shiyin's slender white wrist.
Then, he took out a pair of X-ray glasses from the medicine box and carefully put them on his nose. Through the lenses, he could instantly see the condition of Cheng Shiyin's body.
One has to admit that Taoist Qingfeng, who hypnotizes poisonous insects, is really good at it. After careful observation, Yunhai discovered that all ten poisonous insects were driven into Cheng Shiyin's two arms.
There are seven poisonous insects in the left arm, but only three in the right one.
With Yunhai's medical skills, completing such an operation is no problem at all.
However, he did not act rashly at this moment. Because Qingfeng had reminded him before that once these poisonous insects left the human body, they would die immediately. But if even one of them died, the rest would wake up in the body in an instant and quickly drill into the human internal organs at an astonishing speed.
Faced with such a difficult situation, Yun Hai knew that he had to come up with a foolproof plan. After all, no one could guarantee that there would not be any accidents with this unprecedented poisonous insect. As the saying goes, it is better to be safe than sorry!
Yunhai took out the inhibitor (similar to anesthetics) that he had prepared in advance from the medicine box.
This anesthetic has few side effects and is only affordable for the rich in the 23rd century. It was originally developed as a special anesthesia method for patients with anesthetic tolerance. Later, it became popular among the upper class because of its few side effects.
This method is not through drugs but through other methods to produce a reversible functional inhibition of the central and peripheral nervous systems. The main characteristic of this inhibition is the loss of sensation, especially pain.
It has the same effect as the ancient practice of sealing acupuncture points with golden needles.
Yunhai prepared this because he knew in advance that the queen was resistant to poison.
This anesthetic was expensive and rare, and not everyone could afford it even in the 23rd century.
Fortunately, he had this anesthetic in his small pharmacy for medical research.
"Don't be afraid, Queen. I will inject this into your body, and the poison will be removed when you wake up. Come and stretch out your arm. Don't worry, it won't hurt."
Yunhai's patient and gentle tone made her feel much more at ease.
Cheng Shiyin held Yun Duo's soft little hand tightly, staring at her gently but firmly, and whispered softly: "Duo'er, if I encounter any unexpected situation this time, please promise me that you will take good care of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for me. From the way he looks at you, I can clearly feel that he has a deep affection for you. That affectionate look is just like the way the emperor looked at me back then."
Yun Duo's heart was shocked, and she keenly noticed the strangeness in Cheng Shiyin's words.
Because normally, as a distinguished queen, she should call herself "this palace", but at this moment, she made an exception and called herself "I" as an equal. This clearly shows that Cheng Shiyin did not hold too many expectations for the upcoming operation in her heart. These words are as heavy and heartbreaking as the last words of a dying woman.
Yun Duo looked at the queen with a gentle smile, and held her hand and comforted her softly, "Your Majesty, please relax! Everything will be fine. You are blessed by heaven, and you will definitely be able to get through this disaster and recover safely."
As soon as Yun Duo finished speaking, she smiled and closed her eyes. The anesthetic had taken effect.
"Duo'er installed a camera outside the screen and took the queen into the small laboratory. There was a small operating table there."
