Chapter 48 Lin Qianqian Chapter 2 didn't mention sucking out the poison.
Soon it was late afternoon, and the sun was still shining brightly in the courtyard of Jingyou Temple. Everyone chatted happily amidst the beautiful flowers.
Lin Qianqian skillfully resolved all the previous difficulties, displaying her charm and attracting many people's secret admiration.
However, Su Wan'er was consumed by jealousy. Unwilling to accept that her plans had failed time and time again, she decided to take a desperate gamble.
Su Wan'er secretly instructed her maid, Huan'er, to hide a venomous snake deep in the flower bushes along Lin Qianqian's usual route. She reasoned that if Lin Qianqian passed by, she would be bitten by the snake, causing chaos. Meanwhile, she could remain uninvolved and watch Lin Qianqian fall into dire straits.
Lin Qianqian strolled along the temple paths with the others, admiring the surrounding scenery and occasionally exchanging a few words quietly with the women beside her. Murong Yi, who was talking with several young men not far away, found his gaze inexplicably drifting towards Lin Qianqian. Perhaps it was the composure and wisdom she had displayed in the face of adversity that had attracted him, making him want to pay her more attention.
As Lin Qianqian walked to a relatively secluded patch of flowers, the venomous snake hidden there was suddenly startled and darted out. In a flash, Murong Yi happened to be nearby. Seeing the snake lunge towards Lin Qianqian, he instinctively stepped forward, shielding her. The snake bit Murong Yi's calf, causing him to groan and furrow his brow.
Seeing this, Su Wan'er turned deathly pale. She couldn't believe her plan had gone so terribly wrong. She had only intended for Lin Qianqian to be bitten by a snake, but she hadn't expected Murong Yi to suddenly appear and take the fall for her. Su Wan'er trembled slightly, her heart filled with regret and fear. She was terrified that something might happen to Murong Yi, and even more terrified that her conspiracy would be exposed. She was on the verge of collapse.
Lin Qianqian was also startled by this sudden turn of events, but she quickly regained her composure. She hurriedly squatted down and looked at Murong Yi, saying, "Your Highness, please forgive me!" With that, she resolutely tore open the hem of Murong Yi's brocade trousers to examine the wound. She saw that the wound had begun to turn bluish-black, clearly indicating that the snake was venomous.
She was startled, her face instantly turning serious. She was extremely anxious, and in her haste, she couldn't care less about anything else. She took a deep breath, bent down without hesitation, approached Murong Yi's wound, pressed her lips tightly against it, and forcefully sucked out the poisonous blood.
Lin Qianqian's action left everyone around her stunned, their eyes wide with disbelief. Murong Yi was equally taken aback, her heart filled with turmoil.
After sucking out the venom, Lin Qianqian quickly spat it out to the side. She looked up at everyone and calmly instructed, "Please go and fetch some clean water and clean strips of cloth." After speaking, she focused on examining the wound, took out a handkerchief from her sleeve, wiped the blood around the wound, and then gently pressed the handkerchief around the wound to slow the spread of the venom.
Before long, a servant brought over clean water and strips of cloth. Lin Qianqian carefully rinsed the wound with clean water to remove any remaining venom and blood. Her movements were gentle and nimble. After cleaning the wound, she picked up the strips of cloth and skillfully wrapped them around Murong Yi's leg, using the first aid and bandaging techniques she had learned in modern times.
Her gaze remained fixed on the wound, her brows furrowed slightly, and she gently bit her lower lip. The strips of cloth in her hands crossed and knotted above the wound, each movement precise, ensuring the wound was tightly bandaged to prevent reinfection from loosening, yet not so tight as to impede blood flow.
After the bandaging was completed, fine beads of sweat appeared on Lin Qianqian's forehead. She straightened up and said to Murong Yi, "Your Highness, this is only an emergency measure. We need to return to the manor as soon as possible and summon a doctor to examine the wound carefully. You must not move around casually in the next few days to avoid the wound from worsening."
Murong Yi gazed at her, his eyes filled with gratitude and admiration: "Thank you, Miss Lin, for saving my life. I will remember it."
Seeing that the prince was temporarily unharmed despite being bitten by a snake, Su Wan'er's tense mood eased slightly thanks to Lin Qianqian's rescue.
After this thrilling incident, everyone looked at Lin Qianqian with admiration and respect. Those who had previously harbored reservations about her out of jealousy or prejudice were now impressed by her courage, wisdom, and kindness.
Under the numerous trials of this flower-viewing and blessing ceremony, Lin Qianqian shines like a dazzling pearl, piercing through the fog of conspiracy and crisis, radiating the most brilliant light.
For the Empress Dowager, Lin Qianqian's performance was even more admirable. The Empress Dowager's gaze was deep and wise, taking in Lin Qianqian's every move. The Empress Dowager secretly thought that if such a woman married into the royal family, she would surely be able to use her talent and wisdom to stand firm in the turbulent court and become a wise and capable assistant to the prince and even the entire royal family.
Therefore, in the Empress Dowager's eyes, in addition to the previous approval, there was more expectation and reliance. She had already decided in her heart that her marriage to Murong Yi was a blessing for the royal family.
