Liu looked at her with teary eyes.
"I...I can?"
“Yes.” Jiang Qingwan took out a blank talisman from her purse. “If I’m not mistaken, Madam was born on an unlucky day and in an unlucky month.”
Liu was stunned upon hearing this.
She had never had her birth date and time analyzed, but when she was in the Southern Territory, she met a fairy who said that she was born on an yin day and in an yin month, making her prone to attracting evil spirits.
She didn't believe it at all at the time.
Now it seems like they've grasped at the last straw.
"I am."
Jiang Qingwan quickly drew on the talisman with her finger, then picked it up and placed it on Liu's forehead.
Liu felt a chill and her eyes stung. When she opened them again, she was surprised to see red threads all over the bed.
"What...what is this?"
She rushed to the bedside and pounded on it desperately, but her hands passed through the red thread and had no effect.
Dr. Zhong and He Nian only saw her flailing wildly at the air and assumed she was overwhelmed by the shock and was having an emotional breakdown.
He Nian quickly pulled her away, but Liu Shi cried out, "Master, can't you see? These threads are sucking Dong'er's life out of her! Quick, quick, help me cut them off!"
He Nian felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing this.
Jiang Qingwan explained, "They can't see it. The spirit talisman is harmful to ordinary people, but people born on yin days and yin months are an exception, so you can see it."
Now, how could Lady Liu not believe it? She immediately knelt down.
"Please, fairy, save my son. I am willing to be a vegetarian for the rest of my life and offer you an everlasting lamp. As long as there are still people in the He family, the incense will never be cut off."
He Nian's eyes also reddened, and he wanted to kneel down as well.
Jiang Qingwan quickly dodged.
Some people have extremely strong destinies, like Mo Yunhan.
In this world, probably no one can withstand his kneeling.
Even she can't.
Although He Nian's fate was not as strong as Mo Yunhan's, she did not want to be affected.
“I am not a fairy, and you don’t need to kneel. Help her up.”
He Nian glanced at Doctor Zhong, and seeing him nod, quickly helped Liu Shi up.
Jiang Qingwan added, "The consultation fee is one thousand taels, not a penny less. If you agree, I will save the person."
Lady Liu immediately gave instructions to her maid.
"Go get the silver quickly, go quickly."
The maidservant quickly ran outside.
Jiang Qingwan then took out three blank talisman papers from her purse, drew talismans on them, and pasted them on the bedside in the east, west, and north positions.
Then she looked at Madam Liu.
“Your son is nearing the end of his life. If he dies, saving him would be like fighting with the King of Hell, which would damage my cultivation. Therefore, I need to lend him my life.”
Liu understood instantly.
“Alright, I’ll lend you whatever it takes, as long as my son can live. I’m willing to give my life for his.”
"lady."
He Nian choked with emotion, "Madam Jiang, my wife is frail, could you lend her mine?"
"No, your destiny is too strong; I can't borrow it."
Jiang Qingwan refused outright, pointing to the last direction.
“Mrs. He, please sit there.”
He refused to let go all the time. He hadn't shed a single tear when he was demoted from the capital, but now tears were falling like they were free.
Liu stood on tiptoe to dry him off.
"Master, after I'm gone, find a good woman to take care of you and Dong'er, so I won't worry about you."
Jiang Qingwan watched the two facing each other in their life-or-death separation, and then thought of herself and Qin Minglang.
That day, she was dressed in red, and with tears in her eyes, she saw him off to war.
She longed for the day he would return, so they could grow old together.
pity……
"It's just borrowing three months of her lifespan; she won't die."
Liu and He Nian were stunned, and the atmosphere became extremely awkward.
Dr. Zhong coughed softly.
"The deep affection between Lord He and his wife is truly rare."
Liu quickly let go of his hand and hurried to the place Jiang Qingwan had designated.
A moment later, I felt something flowing out of my body, which was very uncomfortable, but at the same time, I felt a warm feeling of sudden connection in my blood.
Her face gradually turned pale.
After waiting a while, Jiang Qingwan spoke.
"Okay, get up."
He Nian quickly stepped forward to help her.
"lady."
Liu waved her hand and immediately looked at the bed curtains.
But the number of red threads did not decrease.
“Jiang Niangzi, they’re still sucking.”
Jiang Qingwan nodded.
"Yes, the source hasn't been found."
The boy had stripped down to his inner shirt and was not wearing any witchcraft items.
After the examination, she looked at Liu.
How long have these symptoms lasted?
Madam Liu hurriedly said, "More than a month ago, on our way back to the capital, Dong'er started to feel unwell. My husband and I thought it was because of the bumpy journey and the difference in food between the south and the north that he felt this way."
"When exactly? Ideally, you could recall the exact date. I need to know what he came into contact with or did that day."
Liu has been exhausted from taking care of her children lately and hasn't had much rest. Now that three months of her lifespan has been taken away, her mind is even more confused.
He Nian suddenly said,
"Xiao Fu, call Xiao Fu in."
"Xiao Fu is my son's pageboy, and he is never separated from him."
Soon a servant boy, about the same age as the boy on the bed, bowed and entered.
He knelt on the ground and kowtowed, then coughed softly a few times as he stood up.
Madam Liu said, "He caught a cold, so he hasn't been able to stay in the house to take care of me these past few days. However, he has been with Dong'er the whole time on the way back to the capital."
Xiao Fu didn't have any red threads on his body, but Jiang Qingwan noticed that the tips of his fingers were black.
"Did you find anything on your way back to Beijing?"
Xiao Fu's body trembled.
"No."
Jiang Qingwan's voice grew colder.
