The Ordinary Man's Guide to Fast Travel

Chapter 481 Phoenix Flying 3

As soon as Chao Yao finished speaking, he felt a black screen in front of his eyes, his body swayed a few times, and finally he could not hold on and fell down softly.

"Empress!" Lan Yu exclaimed and quickly reached out to help.

Hang Youqi's face turned pale with fear, "Mother!"

Hang Jinnian was also panicked, "Quick, call the imperial physician!"

Everyone immediately became confused.

Xiao Ruqiu knelt on the ground, trembling, not knowing what to do.

Lan Yu supported Chao Yao while glaring at Xiao Ruqiu, "It's all your fault, bitch!"

Xiao Ruqiu kowtowed repeatedly, "This slave deserves to die, this slave deserves to die!"

After a while, the imperial physician came in hurriedly. After a diagnosis, he said solemnly, "The Crown Princess is already weak, and now she is also angry. She needs to be well taken care of and must not be stimulated again."

Hang Jinnian frowned, "Be careful and serve me. If there is any mistake again, I will not let you off easily!"

Everyone was submissive and did not dare to speak out.

Hang Youqi stood by the bed, holding onto Chao Yao's clothes with her little hands, tears welling up in her eyes, "Mother, you must get better soon."

At this time, Chao Yao's face was as pale as paper, and he lay quietly on the bed, unconscious.

Chao Yao did all this on purpose. Although this body was weak, it could be healed quickly by using his own immortal power, but now was not the time.

At this time, everyone in the General's Mansion had originally planned to visit Chao Yao today. After all, she had stayed in Changning Temple for so many years, and she was finally able to come back, and her family members missed her very much.

General Chao and Madam Chao happily came to the East Palace to see Chao Yao, but they found Chao Yao lying unconscious on the bed.

When Mrs. Chao saw this scene, tears immediately welled up in her eyes, "My Yaoer, what a sin you have suffered!"

General Chao also had a gloomy face and glared at Hang Jinnian. "Your Highness, what is going on? My daughter returned to the East Palace well, how could she become like this?"

Hang Jinnian looked ashamed, "General, calm down. This is a long story."

Lan Yu told General Chao and Madam Chao what had happened.

After hearing this, General Chao was so angry that he trembled all over. "Ridiculous! Absurd! How can the daughter of my Chao family be wronged like this!"

Madam Chao sat down beside the bed, holding Chao Yao's hand, sobbing softly, "Yao'er, please wake up soon, don't let me worry."

Hang Youqi timidly walked to Madam Chao's side and said, "Grandma, mother will be fine, right?"

Madam Chao touched Hang Youqi's head and said, "Yes, I will."

At this time, Chao Yao, who was in a coma, moved his fingers slightly, and everyone was immediately cheered up.

He moved closer to Madam Chao and said, "Yao'er, Yao'er, can you hear what mother is saying?"

However, Chao Yao still did not wake up.

General Chao turned to Hang Jinnian and said, "Your Highness, if this matter is not properly resolved, our Chao family will never let it go!"

Hang Jinnian quickly responded: "General, rest assured, this prince will take care of it."

Just as everyone was waiting anxiously, Chao Yao slowly opened his eyes.

Her eyes were still a little dazed, as if she had just woken up from chaos.

His eyes were a little glazed at first, then slowly came into focus.

His face was still as pale as paper, his lips were bloodless, and he looked extremely weak.

There were beads of sweat on his forehead, and a few strands of hair stuck to his cheeks in a messy manner.

She moved slightly, but it seemed as if she had used up all her strength, and her brows were slightly wrinkled because of the pain.

There was a hint of fatigue and helplessness in his eyes, but he was trying hard to appear strong.

She opened her mouth and said in a weak and hoarse voice: "Dad, Mom..."

As soon as Chao Yao's weak voice came out, everyone's face was filled with surprise.

Mrs. Chao excitedly held Chao Yao's hand, tears rolling down her cheeks again, "Yao'er, you finally woke up. I was so scared."

The general's tense face also relaxed a little, and he stepped forward and asked, "Yao'er, how do you feel?"

Hang Jinnian also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yao'er, I'm glad you woke up."

Hang Youqi even rushed to the bedside and cried out in a sobbing voice: "Mother, you finally woke up. I was so worried."

Lan Yu wiped her tears and said happily: "The queen has woken up. It's really God's blessing."

Xiao Ruqiu was still kneeling on the ground, trembling with fear and not daring to look up.

Chao Yao looked at everyone's concerned expressions and smiled weakly, "I'm sorry to have made everyone worried."

At this time, the imperial physician who had been waiting on the side hurried forward to diagnose the patient.

He stretched out his hand and gently placed it on Chao Yao's wrist through the silk cloth. His expression was focused, and his brows were sometimes slightly furrowed and sometimes relaxed.

After a moment, the imperial physician withdrew his hand and said respectfully: "The Crown Princess is fine now, but her body is still weak. She needs to rest and recuperate for a while."

After hearing this, the general's expression lightened up a little and he said, "That's good. I hope the imperial physician can prescribe some good medicine to make my daughter recover as soon as possible."

The imperial physician nodded repeatedly, "Don't worry, General. I will do my best."

Madam Chao looked at Chao Yao distressedly and said, "Yao'er, you must listen to the imperial physician and take good care of yourself."

Chao Yao responded softly: "Mother, I know."

Hang Jinnian also said: "Yao'er, you can rest assured to recuperate during this period of time, and don't worry about the affairs of the mansion."

She glanced at him without saying anything, but just closed her eyes slightly, as if she felt tired again.

Madam Chao felt distressed when she saw Chao Yao was so exhausted. She turned to look at Xiao Ruqiu who was still kneeling on the ground and said angrily, "This lowly maid is so bold that she dared to offend the Crown Princess. She must be severely punished to serve as a warning to others!"

General Chao also echoed, "Madam is absolutely right. We can't let this ignorant thing go easily!"

Hang Jinnian looked embarrassed, hesitated for a moment and said: "I will handle this matter myself, and I will give Chao Yao an explanation."

Madam Chao snorted coldly: "Your Highness, this slut has caused my daughter to suffer so much. If she is not severely punished, I will never be able to get rid of the hatred in my heart!"

Lan Yu also said angrily, "It was this bitch who caused the trouble. We can't let her off easily!"

Xiao Ruqiu was so frightened that he trembled all over and kept kowtowing and begging for mercy: "Your Highness, please spare me, Madam, please spare me!"

Hang Youqi hid behind Madam Chao and watched the scene timidly.

Chao Yao slowly opened his eyes and said weakly, "Mom, don't get angry over this servant and hurt yourself."

Madam Chao held Chao Yao's hand and said, "Yao'er, you are too kind-hearted, which gave these people the opportunity to bully you."

At this time, the atmosphere in the room was tense, and everyone was waiting for Hang Jinnian's decision.

Hang Jinnian didn't say anything, but looked at Xiao Ruqiu.

Her eyelashes were filled with tears and her body was trembling weakly. Her originally delicate makeup was washed away by her tears, making her look even more pitiful.

She bit her lips, her eyes full of fear and helplessness, like a frightened deer.
