Seeing the doctor's solemn expression, Xie Muqing frowned, and her hands, hanging at her sides, trembled slightly.

Lin Zhenghong was even more anxious, like an ant on a hot pan, frantically grabbing the doctor's arm and anxiously asking:

"Doctor, can you tell what the problem is? I shouted loudly a lot just now, but my daughter didn't seem to be waking up."

The old doctor stroked his half-white beard, frowned slightly, and slowly began to speak:

"After taking your pulse just now, I found that your pulse is strong and powerful, and I did not find anything unusual."

The doctor's diagnosis was exactly the same as what Lin Yan had told Xie Muqing.

His expression changed drastically.

His handsome face tightened, like a gloomy sky, making him unapproachable.

In a short time.

The room was filled with a heavy, oppressive atmosphere.

Lin Zhenghong, being simple-minded, did not notice anything unusual about the others and broke the silence in the room by speaking first.

"Why is my daughter sleeping so soundly? Is she just sleeping too deeply?"

The old doctor took another careful look at the sleeping Lin Yan and saw that her face was rosy and she really looked like she was asleep.

His expression turned serious as he recalled what he had heard before.

"Has this young lady been sleeping for long periods of time every day these past few days?"

Before Lin Zhenghong and Ye Lan could speak, they heard Xie Muqing's anxious voice.

The sound.

"Yes, these past few days, my wife has been sleeping for as long as seven hours a day, and she is very tired every day, which has never happened before."

“This… although the pulse is normal, I had a brief conversation with a free doctor who came to town to provide medical services. She told me that these symptoms are not an illness, but rather that the person has been poisoned.”

The old doctor had barely finished speaking.

The other three people present all said in disbelief in unison:

"Poisoning?!"

Ye Lan was so anxious that she almost burst into tears again, and her words became incoherent.

"How could it be poisoning? Our family doesn't have any enemies for our daughter, so how could it be poisoning?"

Xie Muqing remained silent.

He suddenly remembered that when he was in the prefectural city, he always saw Shangguan Yun going to do free clinics, and she had indeed done free clinics in their town before.

In an instant.

His heart was filled with hope again, and his voice trembled slightly.

"Excuse me, but is that renowned healer a woman?"

"That's right! She's very beautiful, and she's from Jiangnan. Does the young master know the divine physician?!"

Seeing that he seemed to know the legendary doctor, the old doctor was very excited.

He had been a doctor in the town for over thirty years, was very experienced, and considered himself to be quite skilled.

But after that medical exchange with the miracle doctor, he realized how foolish and arrogant he had been.

What a pity!

He never saw the miracle doctor again, nor could he discuss medical techniques with anyone else.

Xie Muqing was not familiar with Shangguan Yun.

However, in the prefectural city.

Lin Yan would occasionally mention her to him, saying that Shangguan Yun was not only very warm-hearted and kind, but also had excellent medical skills, even more so than her.

He used to think that Lin Yan might have exaggerated Shangguan Yun's medical skills because she admired her.

Looking at it now...

She was not exaggerating.

Shangguan Yun's medical skills are indeed remarkable.

Xie Muqing's tense heart finally relaxed a little. He let out a heavy sigh and turned to the old doctor to ask:

"We've had some dealings before. Doctor, did that renowned healer tell you what kind of poison this is? And is there an antidote?"

"The name of this poison is Dream's Lament. Those poisoned suffer from insomnia for the first few days, and then fall into a deep sleep. After three days and three nights of sleep, they will quietly die in their dreams. Because those poisoned by this poison do not feel any pain when they die, it has such a beautiful name. I do not have the ability to cure this poison, but that divine doctor should be able to cure it. However, that divine doctor has not appeared in town since the last free clinic, and I do not know where she is now."

The old doctor shook his head helplessly, a look of guilt appearing on his face.

It's because his skills are lacking, he's not even as good as a teenager, yet he used to be so arrogant.

Unfortunately, the whereabouts of the miracle doctor remain a mystery. If the miracle doctor cannot be found, the girl on the kang (heated brick bed) is likely in grave danger.

The old doctor sighed softly.

The look in his eyes as he looked at Lin Yan also carried a hint of sympathy.

Lin Zhenghong and Ye Lan did not know Shangguan Yun. After learning that the divine doctor had left the town, their faces turned ashen.

If Lin Zhenghong hadn't been holding her, Ye Lan would have collapsed to her knees long ago.

A sharp, stabbing pain shot through her heart, making it hard for her to breathe. Her lips trembled for a long time before she could find her voice again.

"Doctor, is there no other way besides that miracle doctor? How could it be poisoning? She's only eighteen years old..."

Seeing that she was about to faint, Xie Muqing spoke up in time, pulling her back from the brink of losing consciousness.

“Mother-in-law, father-in-law, don’t worry. This doctor is acquainted with my wife and is a kind person. Moreover, she lives in the prefectural city. I will have Yang Jiayi go and invite her over right away.”

Upon hearing his words, Ye Lan instantly went from tears to laughter, hugging Lin Zhenghong and laughing and crying at the same time.

"Really?! That's wonderful! Our daughter is saved!!"

Lin Zhenghong was equally excited.

His heart was pounding, and tears streamed down his face from the excitement.

Xie Muqing, who had witnessed their reactions, felt gratified that Lin Yan had two parents who cared about her so much.

"Yang Jiayi, take the lady's token and go to the Prince Su's mansion in the prefectural city as soon as possible. Tell her that Miss Lin Yan's life is hanging by a thread and beg Miss Shangguan to come over."

"Yes, young master!"

Upon learning that his wife was saved, Yang Jiayi was overjoyed. He received the order and immediately set off, riding at full speed towards the prefectural city.

They heard about the whereabouts of the miracle doctor.

The old doctor couldn't sit still any longer. With a hint of embarrassment on his face, he brazenly made his request.

"Um, gentlemen, would you allow me to wait here for the divine physician's arrival? I have some questions about medicine that I need her to answer."

Although the old doctor did not manage to revive Lin Yan.

But he brought them crucial information, and he came despite the wind and snow, so the three people present were very grateful to him.

Since this was his daughter's bedroom and it wasn't appropriate to linger, Lin Zhenghong invited the old doctor out of the main room.

"Of course, but the snow on the road is quite thick, and it will probably take until evening to get someone here. Since our house is full, I'll take you to the old house next door to rest now. Please bear with us."

"Thank you, thank you."

Yang Jiayi rode the Chasing Wind at breakneck speed.

Two hours later.

He finally succeeded in entering the prefectural city.

But when he arrived at the Prince's residence, he was told by the guards that Miss Shangguan and the Prince had already gone to the capital for a banquet not long ago...
