Chapter 74: Awakening, Space Upgrade
"Yes." The imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital stayed in the room for most of the night. When dawn broke, they took her pulse again. Her pulse and breathing were stable. They knew that her pulse was weak and her blood and qi were slightly depleted. It seemed that she had overworked herself and exhausted her mind, which caused her to lose her balance.
Upon receiving this conclusion, the imperial physicians immediately went to report to the Ji family, the Emperor, and the Crown Prince.
Early in the morning, the Empress also came over, but she only came to take a look. Today was the Fifth Prince's wedding. Although it was a wedding during the mourning period, it was still a royal wedding.
They are naturally twice as busy as ordinary people.
The Empress only came to visit, comforted Fang Yulan, presented her with a ginseng root, and then left.
Before long, the imperial harem, led by Consort Lan, sent various precious medicinal herbs to the residence, and the Crown Princess also sent quite a lot.
Knowing that she had fallen asleep from exhaustion, the Ji family members were less worried, but they still stayed by Ji Yingying's side, fearing that bad news might come again.
After the Fifth Prince's wedding banquet, a large group of people were dragged out of the Meridian Gate and beheaded; they were mostly merchants and local thugs.
The leader was the shopkeeper. One day, with the help of Mu Kaiji, Lord Gongsun investigated and solved this child sex case.
The shopkeeper was the brother of one of the favorite concubines of the Marquis of Zhongyong.
Some time ago, the Marquis of Zhongyong was beheaded and his relatives were exiled. He became much more restrained after that, but when he found that no one had even noticed him, he started to act arrogantly again.
He was arrested after Ji Yingying discovered his activities, along with several other businessmen who had been doing illegal business with him.
In short, they were all captured and beheaded.
"Young Master Mu, your abilities are truly remarkable." Lord Gongsun couldn't help but admire this young man. After all, someone who comes from the same place as Ji Yingying, what else could he be but a capable person?
"Not bad, not bad. I'll go see Ji San." Mu Kaiji waved his hand and had someone take him to the Ji residence.
He was still unconscious, and Fang Yulan was taking care of him. When she heard that he had arrived, she asked someone to invite him in.
"Auntie, she'll be fine, don't worry." Knowing that she was just tired and had fallen asleep, he felt relieved.
"Thank you, Young Master Mu."
Mu Kaiji nodded and said to the person on the bed, "If you don't wake up, I'm taking your family fortune and leaving. Also, I've sent those children back to that dungeon."
this……
What a eloquent young master!
"Alright, Auntie, I'll head back now. Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival and also the day we're opening for business. I have a lot to do, so I'll go back now."
"Alright, alright, you can take care of things at the shop. I don't know when my son will wake up."
"Yes, I know."
…………
On the afternoon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Ji Yingying woke up because she was hungry. When she woke up, there was no one in the room, and Ji Yingying was too lazy to call for anyone.
I'll just go into the space and find something to eat.
She hadn't been to this space for almost ten years. Since arriving here, she hadn't used the space much, but had used the system more often, and usually just used her thoughts to retrieve things.
I never expected the change to be so drastic. The space that was originally only 30 square meters has now become more than 100 square meters, or even more.
She grabbed a few bags of potato chips and started eating them. She also stumbled upon a roast chicken, which she promptly began to devour.
"Looks like I'll have to store more things here in the future." Ji Yingying looked at the empty space inside.
The space was already full of junk before, so Ji Yingying hadn't given it much thought.
After eating and drinking her fill, Ji Yingying came out of the space and saw Fang Yulan entering the house.
"mother"
"Thud..." Fang Yulan was holding a bowl of porridge, but when she saw that she was awake, she was so surprised that she dropped it.
"My son, you've finally woken up."
How long have I been asleep?
"Two nights and a day and a half. If you don't wake up soon, your mother won't know what to do."
After summoning the imperial physician to take her pulse and confirming that she was alright, he immediately went to the palace to report.
"I'm just too tired, Mom, I'm fine."
[It's been a long time since I hypnotized anyone, and I was so exhausted that I naturally slept longer.]
"Hey, Mother, where are the children?"
“They’ve all been sent back. Those who didn’t want to go back have been sent to the orphanage.”
"Oh, that's great. Is today the Mid-Autumn Festival?"
"Yes, your father and your second brother went to the palace, while your eldest brother is outside."
Ji Yingying nodded: [I was hoping to go see the palace banquet, but alas! I won't have the chance.]
"Son, you scared your mother to death this time. Don't be so reckless next time, okay?"
"Okay, I understand." Ji Yingying hugged Fang Yulan, smiling warmly.
"What delicious food is Mother preparing for tonight?"
"What would you like to eat? Mother will have someone make it for you."
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Ji Yingying suddenly craved mooncakes. Unfortunately, there were no mooncakes in this era, only pancakes similar to glutinous rice balls, but they were made with lots of fillings.
"Mom, I want to eat duck, stir-fried duck with bamboo shoots."
"Alright, Mother will have someone arrange it. You can lie down for a while longer."
"Okay," Fang Yulan said as she left. Only then did Ji Yingying take out a few small mooncakes from her spatial storage.
They're all fruit-flavored.
Ji Yingying ate one.
【Xiangxiang... Xiangxiang...】Ji Yingying called several times, but there was no response.
[No way, I messed up my system? This won't do! Watching the drama unfold is my only source of amusement in this world.]
[Xiangxiang, please come back soon... I can't bear the days without you~]
When Ji Yingying sings, it's especially sorrowful!
[Smells good...]
Without Xiangxiang, she would really be lonely. It took her a long time to get used to life without a cell phone. If Xiangxiang weren't around, who would she talk to? Who would tell her gossip? She didn't find those private things disgusting; she just found them interesting.
[Xiangxiang, please come back soon. I can't bear this alone. Please come back soon. Life is only wonderful because of you. Please come back soon and bring back my longing.]
Ji Yingying is so sad~
Just as she was about to burst into tears, a familiar voice came through: "Host, you love me that much?"
"Ah... Xiangxiang, you're back?"
You must have heard me calling you, right?
[Yes, yes, host, you love me, I understand.]
Hehe, it's good to be back. Tell me, what happened?
[Not yet the host, lacking sufficient mental energy. Xiangxiang transferred a significant amount of mental energy to the host, causing Xiangxiang to malfunction.]
Ah, Xiangxiang, you're so kind.
[Host, Xiangxiang used your points, your points are now zero.]
What? Why are you using my points?
[Of course it's to save your life! Otherwise, you'd be unconscious for months to come. Host, you should be grateful.]
Ji Yingying looked aggrieved. She knew for sure that if Xiangxiang hadn't protected her brain, she might have slept for a whole month.
Sleeping in this place for a month, what's the difference between that and courting death?
Okay, I forgive you. From now on, I'll work hard to earn points.
【Let's enjoy the gossip! But this time it's also beneficial for us; we have an extra function.】
What function is it?
