Chapter 207 - Treatment

"...Hey hey...hey.." Si Ning stared at the face that was turning blue, his mind blanks because he couldn't come up with what to say, he used two fingers to press the side of her neck and he was relieved when he detected a purse.

"Si Ning!" 

It was so sudden that someone called Si Ning by his name that Si Ning was so surprised that he turned wanting to see who dares only to see Song Feng rushed in, if the door wasn't strong it would have been broken by the force Song Feng used to slide it open. Si Ning was a bit confused to see Song Feng fell immediately to his side, he was breathing hard, his hair packed roughly into a bun, water dripping all over his face, trailing to the neck of the white inner robe he was wearing and anyone could tell he was just out of the bath, even the outer robe he wore was on the wrong face yet he placed a hand on Si Ning's face disregarding his abrupt appearance when he was facing the Empress. Si Ning was confused since Song Feng wasn't looking at Yanlin but was staring at him like he wasn't aware he was holding someone dying.

"Tell me what is wrong Si Ning, where are you hurt? Is it your head? What happened?" Song Feng said between a deep breath, his chest rising and falling as Wei came in with a large box, he was also breathing hard.

"It is not me Song Feng look it is Yanlin." Si Ning told him wanting to divert his attention to the emergency on the ground.

"Oh." Song Feng's eyes widened, he seemed to be relieved as he lowered his gaze but seemed shocked immediately he saw Yanlin. "Oh the rare poison, I have to make a puncture on her chest to let bad blood flow out." He said as he seemed less disorganised as he finally entered his professional mode opening up the box Wei placed beside him and getting to work immediately.

Si Ning quickly scooted to the side after laying Yanlin on the floor. He picked up his wide sash on the floor and rolled in then placed Yanlin's head on it just to make her head a bit higher. "Will she live?" 

"Yes Your Majesty." Song Feng replied firmly. "The rare poison gives out the immediate appearance of death but it causes a slow painful death because it has to circulate all around the body."

Si Ning turned to Wei who was on his knees, it was his way of avoiding watching Song Feng work. He wondered what Wei told Song Feng because when Song Feng rushed in he acted like he was the one who needed emergency help. He placed it at the back of his mind to ask Wei later. "Wei make sure no one knows about this, I mean no one and that will be your mission." 

"Yes Your Majesty." Wei nodded and left to carry out his orders.

"She needs to lie on a softer... like a blanket to force her body to relax." Song Feng said.

"Lay her on my bed." Si Ning replied instantly.

"But Your bed will get stained." Song Feng complained.

"Don't worry just lay her there." Si Ning said. What was a bed to a person's life, he was so rich he could afford a thousand beds so getting his bed stained is his least concern.

Song Feng complied carrying Yanlin but he didn't carry her with the outer coat so he seemed confused to find out she was naked but he laid her on the bed as he concentrated on his work. He quickly mixed two pills and crushed them in a small mortal, poured it in a bowl then mix them with water.

Si Ning had no idea what Song Feng was thinking because he caught his confused expression that seemed like it won't be fading soon. "If you need me to help." He said when he noticed Song Feng was trying to raise her head to feed her the potion.

"I dare not stain his Majesty's hands." Song Feng replied as he made sure a tiny bit of the potion entered into her system then he made a tiny cut at her chest letting dark blood flow out.

It took a while for Song Feng to get rid of the potion of the poisoned blood which was drained from her chest and mouth onto the floor making the room start stinking of the stench of blood. Si Ning was glad to see the colour coming back to Yanlin's face and she seemed not to be in pain anymore.

"Your Majesty." Wei stepped in. "I have made arrangements for where she would stay to recover and I will make sure to cover up the tracks, the excuse is that she ran away with a man so after recovery she will be back and what happened here no one will know, the carriage is already arranged, I will carry her so Your Majesty has nothing to worry about because I will take care of everything, Jiang Ye will never hear of this," Wei explained. "Xiao Pei said I should inform Your Majesty that he had made all the preparation with Jiang Ye, I made sure they won't step here nor will they know what happened today but Xiao Pei seemed suspicious but I told him Your Majesty will like to travel back to the palace riding Yun so Xiao Peo went back to the palace to get Yun." He explained. "Wei will get something to clean all the blood and prepare to get rid of the bed." He added.

Si Ning was glad he won't have to involve Xiao Pei. "Good but can you do it alone?"

"Wei can clear anything even if it is a hundred dead bodies as long as it is your order, Your Majesty." Wei replied as he bowed.

"Good." Si Ning nodded as he turned his attention back to Song Feng. "Can she perhaps travel?"

"Yes Your Majesty." Song Feng replied taking an acupuncture needle and inserting it into her forehead.

Just by hearing Song Feng's affirmation, Wei quickly left the room.

"About what happened...."

"Her condition is now okay and stable, she will sleep for a few hours or days depending on how well she improves, this potion will be given to her every morning, it will slowly wash the rest of the poison away but immediately she wakes up then she will be feed with this pill." Song Feng explained as he finished stitching up her chest then started to wrap it with a bandage.

Wei came in with some cleaning materials and he started to clean the floor so fast that when Song Feng was done wiping her chest Wei was done too and he head out with the bucket that contained blood mixed with water. Song Feng started to pack up after wiping his hands clean then removed the acupuncture on Yanlin's forehead.

"You know you should stop treating me like a stranger Song Feng, we can still talk like we used to." Si Ning had to go straight to the point when Wei left, it was obvious Song Feng just cut him off.

"That is the cruelest statement you can say to me, Your Majesty." Song Feng said as he continued to pack his box and when he was done he wrote out his instructions down with charcoal then he stood up and bowed deeply. 

Wei entered the room with a pouch that contained silvers and he extended it to Song Feng along with clean pair of clothes since Song Feng's robe was stained but Song Feng was reluctant to collect the pouch and only collected the cloth.

"For your service." Si Ning said glad that he had reasonable people around him, he didn't think for once that Song Feng might be paid for his service but any incident that happen in the Si residence then the Doctors that usually come get paid by Ge Mengshu but since Yanlin got treated in secret then Si Ning had to be responsible yet he had no idea where Wei got the money from.

This time around Song Feng collected it and once again bowed to Si Ning.. Wei opened the door and bowed and Si Ning knew it was time to leave, it wasn't awkward staying with Song Feng but deep down it was unsettling also Si Ning had to return to the palace so without another word he left the room.
