Chapter 528 Who said I lost?

"Miss Xiao, you have a high fever caused by a cold. Fortunately, Miss Xiao has a good physical condition, so she will be fine after taking a few medicines." After taking Xiao Jiuyue's pulse, Doctor Wang began to prescribe a prescription for her.

The Sixth Princess muttered to herself, "When Miss Xiao came back earlier, her dress and shoes were already wet. She didn't expect that even after washing up in time, she still fell ill. Doctor Wang, you must use the best medicine to treat Miss Xiao."

"Don't worry, Your Highness." Doctor Wang responded with a smile, but his hand that was writing the prescription never stopped. Even without the Sixth Princess' reminder, Doctor Wang would use the best medicine for Miss Xiao. He also wanted to meet Miss Xiao's master.

She must be an extraordinary woman to be able to give the Sixth Princess such a good prescription and come up with such a good treatment method.

"Thank you, Sixth Princess, and thank you, Doctor Wang." Lianxin bowed to the Sixth Princess and Doctor Wang with gratitude. It would be difficult to invite a doctor in the middle of the night in the wilderness where they were hunting.

Doctor Wang put down the prescription and handed it to Lianxin: "No need. After taking the medicine, your young lady's fever should subside tomorrow."

The Sixth Princess yawned and warned Lian Xin, "If Sister Xiao feels unwell, send someone to find me."

"Thank you, Your Highness. You should go to bed early." Lianxin looked at the Sixth Princess yawning and expressed her gratitude one after another.

The Sixth Princess waved her hand and said, "Alright, don't say anything more. Sister Xiao may not be my biological sister, but she's better than a biological sister."

After sending the Sixth Princess away, Lianxin and Donggui stayed by Xiao Jiuyue's bedside, wiping her body and applying ice to her forehead from time to time. After decocting the medicine, the two of them fed it to Xiao Jiuyue.

Xiao Jiuyue was in a daze the whole time due to fever and was dreaming again.

The dream still showed that long staircase. A man was dressed in black ink, holding a woman in his arms. The woman's hands were hanging on both sides. Her skin was pale, and her long black hair hung down.

The man held the woman in his arms and walked on the endless stairs.

Stop, stop now.

Xiao Jiuyue murmured, an indescribable sadness filling her chest. She tried hard to see the man's face clearly, but she could only see his back.

At dawn, Xiao Jiuyue was awakened by hunger. She opened her eyes, her chest still filled with deep sadness. She glanced sideways and saw Lianxin lying beside her. Not far away, Donggui was lying on the table.

My mouth is dry and there is a bitter taste of medicine.

Xiao Jiuyue wanted to drink some water but didn't want to wake Lianxin and Donggui. When she moved, the handkerchief on her forehead fell off. Lianxin, who was sitting beside the bed, woke up immediately: "Miss, are you awake? Do you want some water?"

Lian Xin quickly stood up and brought over some warm water, saying, "Miss, are you feeling unwell? Are you hungry? There's porridge simmering on the stove, it should be ready to drink now."

Xiao Jiuyue drank the water, suppressing the bitter taste in her heart. She looked at the dark circles under Lianxin's eyelids and said, "I must have tired you out again last night."

"How could that be? I was actually scared. The master has sent people here several times. If it weren't inconvenient for him to come, I'm afraid he would have come to see you a long time ago." Lian Xin rambled on about the news that she had a high fever after falling asleep yesterday, and said, "Fortunately, the Sixth Prince brought the imperial physician here, otherwise, if the young lady had a high fever all night..."

Lianxin felt a little scared. If she and Donggui had not insisted, they would not have noticed that Xiao Jiuyue had a high fever that would not have subsided. If she had continued to have a fever all night, the young lady's body might not have been able to bear it.

"Sixth Princess, you are a good girl." Xiao Jiuyue said with a smile. She had gone hunting and looking for people yesterday. She also went back and forth to fetch water and applied cold water to Jun Lie's forehead. She also had a dream all night. She was really tired and hungry now.

Dong Gui heard the noise, came forward with the porridge, and said, "Miss, you really scared us to death. Fortunately, you are fine, otherwise..."

"Don't worry, Miss. The Third Prince has woken up. The imperial physician said that he will be fine as long as he rests well." Dong Gui whispered the news she had heard.

Xiao Jiuyue felt relieved after hearing this. Just as she finished drinking her porridge, the Sixth Princess arrived.

"Sister Xiao, are you feeling better?" The Sixth Princess chattered non-stop as she entered the room. She smiled and said, "Sister Xiao, it's amazing that Third Brother, saved by you, surprisingly, didn't get a rash."

"Let me tell you, you are the first woman who didn't get a rash after touching Sixth Brother." The Sixth Princess whispered in Xiao Jiuyue's ear.

"Maybe, I'm a doctor?" Xiao Jiuyue didn't understand the reason, so he said casually.

"Perhaps the faint medicinal fragrance on the doctor can detoxify?" The Sixth Princess sniffed at Xiao Jiuyue like a puppy and said, "Sister Xiao has a faint medicinal fragrance on her body. No, it's like medicinal fragrance, and like incense. It smells very pleasant!"

"Maybe." Xiao Jiuyue answered casually, then changed the subject and asked, "Who won the hunt yesterday?"

"Princess Mu Xi and I tied, each of us hunted twenty-eight, and Miss Du Ting got twenty-seven," the Sixth Princess said proudly. "Later, I came across a nest of rabbits, which was a great bargain. Today, I asked the kitchen to cook some rabbits for Sister Xiao."

"Sister Xiao, it doesn't matter if you don't have so much. After all, your horse was shot by a sneak attack. Princess Mu Xi and I are tied anyway, and no one has won!" The Sixth Princess said comfortingly, thinking that Xiao Jiuyue was shot by a sneak attack yesterday, her horse was out of control, and she encountered an assassin who was trying to assassinate her third brother. She was afraid that she would have no time to hunt.

"I wonder how many prey Miss Xiao has hunted? Princess Mu Xi and I also encountered assassins yesterday." Du Ting's voice rang out. She was still indignant last night and didn't want to be the second prince's consort, but after just one night, Du Ting figured it out.

There is nothing wrong with being the Second Prince's Consort. After all, the Second Young Master Jiang doesn't have her in his heart. Being a prince's consort can at least bring honor to the family and make her glorious. The Imperial Consort is in charge of the six palaces, and it is not certain who will ascend to the throne in the future!

By then, she will be... the most noble woman in South Vietnam!

"If Miss Xiao didn't have twenty-eight prey, then the Sixth Princess and I would have won." After a night, Princess Mu Xi also digested the fact that she would be a concubine. She came here for a marriage alliance, not for the Nanyue Kingdom to seek marriage.

The Crown Prince was right. If Nanyue started fighting again, Yongzhao would be destroyed. When the time came, between the princess of the fallen country... and the prince and concubine of Nanyue, Princess Muxi still knew how to choose.

Princess Mu Xi stood there, as if she had already won. Five hundred taels of silver was quite easy to earn.

"Sister Xiao encountered an assassin and has no time to hunt." As soon as the Sixth Princess finished speaking, Du Ting said, "We also encountered an assassin."

"You..." The Sixth Princess wanted to say something. She racked her brains but didn't know how to make amends.

Miss Gao, Miss Lin, and Miss Feng, who were in charge of the two thousand taels of silver, came over. They were just hesitating whether to split the silver in half between Princess Mu Xi and the Sixth Princess when Xiao Jiuyue said, "Who said I lost?"
