"You Ran, listen to me and open the door quickly. I brought you your favorite grapes."
Tang Lei knocked on the door and spoke, but was met with a closed door. No matter how much he knocked, Li Youran refused to open the door.
"Put your things outside the door and leave quickly."
When Li Youran heard Tang Lei knocking on the door, she was very excited. She jumped off the bed without even putting on her shoes and socks.
But after calming down, she hurriedly turned back, not even daring to approach the door, for fear of infecting Tang Lei with the plague.
"You Ran, open the door quickly and let me see you."
At this moment, Tang Lei stood outside the door, almost in tears. If he could, he so wished that he, not Li Youran, was the one infected with pneumonia.
"Princess, the medicine has been brewed, but no one has drunk it yet. Would you be willing to test it on yourself?"
Just then, Dr. Feng walked over. He stood side by side with Tang Lei outside the door and called out to Li Youran inside.
"I trust Dr. Feng. You can leave the medicine outside the door, and I'll go get it myself in a bit."
Li Youran shouted loudly towards the door.
At this point, she began to feel dizzy and lightheaded, and her lungs felt a little painful, making her want to cough.
Li Youran knew she couldn't delay any longer; the chances of recovery in the early stages of the illness were much greater than the chances of medication being needed in the later stages.
"Young Master Tang, you should leave your things outside the door and leave with me quickly, otherwise the princess will not open the door."
Seeing that Tang Lei was still stubbornly standing outside the door, Dr. Feng kindly offered a suggestion.
But to everyone's surprise, Tang Lei looked at Doctor Feng with a wary expression.
"Are you sure this medicine won't cause any problems?"
Tang Lei asked with unease. Although he didn't know the boy's background and why the Second Prince valued him so much, Li Youran was the apple of his eye, and Tang Lei was still worried.
"A full recovery cannot be guaranteed, but there will be absolutely no harm."
Dr. Feng said with a smile, then bowed and took his leave.
Tang Lei turned to look at the door again. He wished he could see Li Youran through the door, but after thinking it over, he was afraid that the medicine would get cold and delay Youran from taking it. So he shouted loudly into the door.
"There are also some candied fruits in the box. If you find the medicine bitter after taking it, you can eat some candied fruits."
Originally, Li Youran had blamed Tang Lei for being too stubborn, standing outside the door and refusing to leave.
But for some reason, after hearing Tang Lei's words, she suddenly felt a pang of sadness.
"Okay, I'll take good care of myself, you don't need to worry."
At this moment, the Second Prince's wife was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. She paced back and forth in the room until she heard the servants say that Doctor Feng had returned. Only then did she hurriedly send someone to invite Doctor Feng.
"Second Prince's Consort, there is no need to worry. The Princess has already taken the medicine I prepared, and her condition has improved."
All day today, Dr. Feng has been leading people to brew medicine, making sure everyone drinks it.
However, Li Youran did not know that the seemingly ordinary bowl of medicine she received was actually prepared by Doctor Feng himself and delivered to her immediately; it was the first bowl of all the medicines he had ever given her.
"Thank you for your help, Dr. Feng."
After hearing Doctor Feng's words, the Second Prince's wife felt much more at ease.
She knew that the young man in front of her rarely spoke boastfully without certainty, so his ability to say this meant that he truly could heal himself.
Li Youran and Detective Huang were both quarantined, but the work still had to be done.
The Zhao family's wine cellar is now operating independently, continuously supplying high-proof liquor to Liaocheng and even areas outside Liaocheng for disinfection.
The epidemic has been brought under control, and the number of infections has dropped from dozens to a dozen or so over the past few days, eventually reaching a point where only a few people are infected each day.
Meanwhile, the severely pneumonia patients who were isolated also received new hope. After taking the medicine prepared by Dr. Feng, they felt much better and no longer suffered from unbearable chest pain as before.
The situation in Liaocheng was very good. The prefect of Huangzhou also learned that His Highness the Second Prince and his entourage had gone to Liaocheng, so he hurriedly came to pay his respects.
"Your Excellency, the Second Prince has gone to Liaocheng before us. I'm afraid the Liaocheng magistrate will speak ill of you to the Second Prince."
The clerk beside the prefect, with his pointed face and monkey-like features, spoke to the prefect in a strange tone.
Upon hearing Fourth Master's words, the Prefect couldn't help but sneer.
"He's just a mere county magistrate; how much weight can his words carry?"
As he spoke, Prefect Huang glanced at his advisor, raised an eyebrow, and continued.
"Those things in officialdom are beyond the control of a county magistrate like him. Just watch how your master makes His Highness the Second Prince look at me with new eyes."
“What you say is absolutely right, sir.”
The clerk hurriedly cupped his hands and said to the prefect with a sly smile.
"You Ran, I brought you your favorite grapes."
After taking the medicine, Li Youran felt better and began to write down her feelings and physical changes since contracting pneumonia.
Just then, she heard Tang Lei's voice outside the door, and couldn't help but shake her head and smile bitterly.
That day she simply didn't have an appetite and found grapes to be more appetizing. But Tang Lei seemed convinced that she liked grapes, and he brought them to her again early this morning.
"A shrewd scholar."
Wu Yong arrived a step too late. When he excitedly carried the food box in, he saw that Tang Lei had already gone ahead of him, and he couldn't help but mutter to himself.
"Group owner, I brought you some cherries."
