Xiao Yunze glanced at the two guards kneeling on the ground, sighed, and took out a pill from each of the medicine boxes and handed them to the old doctor, "Take this pill and test whether it is poisonous."

The old doctor saw that the pill had a strange shape and he had never seen it before, but he did not dare to ask too much. He dissolved it in water and tested for poison with a silver needle.

"Tai..." Suddenly remembering that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince forbade him to address him as "Prince," the old doctor immediately changed his tone and followed the Crown Prince's guards, shouting, "Master, these two...pills are non-toxic. Take them and there should be no harm."

Since it is non-toxic, we can give it a try. It won’t hurt Grandma Chen after all.

Xiao Yunze followed the dosage Song Tingwan had told him, took an ibuprofen pill and asked the doctor to give it to Grandma Chen with water. He also prepared two doses of Yinqiao Jiedu tablets and asked Zhuque to deliver them to Baihu and Xuanwu.

The old doctor came out quickly and said, "Master, Mrs. Chen was groaning in pain and couldn't fall asleep for a long time, but after taking the pill, she was able to fall asleep peacefully not long after. It's really amazing!"

Xiao Yunze nodded and said, "Wait another hour to see if there is any improvement."

"Qinglong, is there any news from the court?"

"Master, there is no movement." Qinglong bowed.

"Where are the grain and fodder shipped from Sangzhou?"

Qinglong's eyes were fierce. "They were intercepted halfway. The convoy had already entered the city. They said that a prince was coming to the city, so the entire procession was blocked and no one was allowed to leave the city. They were trapped in the city."

"How many counties are there nearby?"

Qinglong snorted and said angrily, "Those bastards! We're a major grain-producing county, yet they're refusing to lend us grain because they claim there's not enough. My Lord, they're just looking at us now... and deliberately trying to make things difficult for us!"

Qinglong didn't say it explicitly, but Xiao Yunze knew what he meant.

A few days ago, he was falsely accused by a villain. His father was furious and did not even give him a chance to defend himself. He directly abolished his position as crown prince and ordered him to reflect on his mistakes in this remote place.

But upon arrival, a widespread plague broke out, killing 12,000 people and leaving only 8,000! The plague had been raging for months, yet the imperial court hadn't heard a word about this dire situation!

He submitted several memorials to the court and borrowed grain from surrounding counties one by one. However, his memorials to the court fell on deaf ears, and his letters to Lin County were repeatedly rejected.

There is only one reason - he is already the deposed crown prince, some people don't want him to be well, and some people dare not let him be well.

It had been less than a month since he arrived in Fengxian. He had isolated the sick and consulted with doctors, but this had only managed to slow the spread of the disease. Countless people had died in that month, and without support, he faced a food shortage.

Xiao Yunze put his hands behind his back and closed his eyes.

The waiting time is very long.

An hour later, the old doctor came out of Grandma Chen's house, and with him came Grandma Chen who had been bedridden for a long time!

At the same time, Xuanwu, Baihu and Suzaku also flew over from not far away!
