Chapter 2
Qu Dubian was sleeping soundly and was called to eat.
He ate half a sweet cake and drank some rice porridge. Although he still wanted to eat, his body was not strong enough and he couldn't get anything down.
Ye Xiaoyuan was reluctant to eat it, so he left the rest for him.
Qu Duan patted his face to cheer himself up, "Ye Banban, have you found someone who knows Tai Chi again?"
Ye Xiaoyuan hesitated: "I picked up a young eunuch who was almost frozen to death on the way. He said he could do it, so I brought him back. He is now staying outside."
Qu Dubian sat up from the bed and was about to get out of bed immediately.
"I'll go check it out!"
Ye Xiaoyuan was so scared that his heart was pounding.
My ancestor! It's so cold outside, how can it be better if there's a gust of wind? He quickly stopped him and said, "I'll go and call him in, Your Highness, please stay here."
"Go quickly."
The little prince on the hospital bed looked up eagerly. His face became thinner and thinner, which made his eyes look bigger. He looked so pitiful, like a malnourished kitten.
Even though he is so sick, he is still worried about the life and death of an unrelated servant. How can he be so kind-hearted in this palace? How can the Empress in heaven feel at ease watching him?
Ye Xiaoyuan sighed inwardly and went outside to bring in the little eunuch.
His face looked much cleaner and he nodded with slight satisfaction. He was a sensible man.
Fearing that the coldness from his body would spread to Qu Dubian, Ye Xiaoyuan did not ask him to get closer. When he was about six or seven steps away, the young eunuch knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly. His voice was weak, and his teeth chattered due to the cold.
"Please... please, Your Highness, take me in... I will definitely, definitely repay Your Highness' kindness with all my heart in the future..."
Perhaps it was because his voice was too soft, or perhaps he was too embarrassed, and he did not catch the nobleman’s attention. After he finished speaking, there was no movement in the room.
Smelling the smell of medicine in the hall, the young eunuch bit his tongue. Only when he tasted the blood did he feel a little pain. He tried his best to stay awake, but his heart became colder and more desperate.
The lives of the lowly servants in the palace are as insignificant as the dust under the feet of the nobles. How could he be kept when he is so dirty and disheveled?
"Do you know Tai Chi?" A childish, soft and weak voice asked him.
The young eunuch bit himself again, swallowed the blood oozing from his tongue, and held on to his spirits, "Yes, yes! Before I entered the palace, I learned one or two moves, so I know some basic skills."
The heavy stone in Qu Dubian's heart fell halfway. Wow, finally someone came to save his life.
His eyes couldn't help but fall on the body of the little eunuch who was kneeling on the ground. He was still shivering, and he didn't know whether he was cold or scared.
What a sin.
He is probably in junior high school now, and looks about the same age as Ye Banban.
"Then you will be in Ju'an Hall from now on, and you will be responsible for teaching me martial arts every day."
The young eunuch was stunned for a moment, then he kept saying, "Thank you, Your Highness, thank you, Your Highness!"
Ye Xiaoyuan: "Okay, follow me."
Although His Highness accepted him, he had been outside in the cold for too long and could not avoid a high fever. The medicinal herbs here are only for His Highness, and I can only drink ginger soup. Whether I can survive or not depends on tonight.
The young eunuch had no idea what Ye Xiaoyuan was thinking. He was helped to stand up and couldn't help but look up before leaving.
He only saw the slightly drooping curtains and a small bulging quilt. The little nobleman who saved him seemed to be sick, and was lying in that quilt.
-
As soon as the palace door closed, the [Disease Simulator] in Qu Dubian's mind underwent some changes.
[Possible character to befriend: The little eunuch who was picked up (no name yet)
Favorability: 20]
Before Qu Duanbian had the chance to complain that the little eunuch didn't even have a name, all his attention was attracted by the favorability rating below.
Twenty? It’s rising so fast!
The little eunuch that Ye Banpei picked up by hand could not only teach him martial arts to prolong his life, but he also had the potential to increase his lifespan in the next year.
Qu Duanbian suddenly felt that he was too cold just now. If he got out of bed and expressed his condolences in person, would his favorability grow faster?
Oh, what a loss!
It's no wonder he's so happy. Anyone who carries a sign with a life countdown every day will be unable to help but have their eyes light up when they see this kind of life reserve energy.
Although he was happy, Qu Dubian understood that the price rose so fast because timely assistance was more valuable than icing on the cake, and such an opportunity did not come along every time.
But then again, why didn't Ye Banban have a favorable impression? He could sense that Ye Banban cared for him, which was no worse than that of a relative.
He asked tentatively in his mind.
[Disease Simulator] pops up a message: Ye Xiaoyuan's favorability was over 60 before the host came, so it is not included in the statistics.
Qu Dubian was stunned, then felt a little sad for Ye Xiaoyuan.
He would never know that the child he had taken care of for two years died quietly.
And he is just a soul from another world.
If it were someone else, they would probably feel guilty because of Ye Banban's love and pampering, but Qu Duanbian would not. He took on Ye Xiaoyuan's love for the little prince, and naturally took on the cause and effect.
What? His soul is not the little prince's, so he is not worthy? Well, then please call the little prince's soul back from the underworld. He is willing to leave this little body and return to his own world to be reincarnated, so that the original little prince can take care of Ye Banban in his old age.
Since it doesn't work, why think so much.
Qu Watanabe never wastes time on things that cannot be changed.
He was more or less a prince, no matter how badly he did, he would still have the title of a prince after his adopted father died. It was more than enough for him to provide for Ye Banban in his old age and repay the warmth for the child who died early.
So, he just needs to live well!
-
Xiuxiang Palace.
Green smoke curls up from the golden cloud incense burner with gold thread peony.
There are floor dragons in the hall, and silver frost charcoal is burning in every corner to remove the moisture accumulated in the corners.
Concubine Lan carefully admired the balsam flower juice that had just been painted on her nails.
"That little bastard in Ju'an Palace is still alive?"
Senior palace maid Lian Zhu said: "It is said that he is sick, and his illness is quite serious. It is so cold, and there is not much charcoal to use over there. I don't know if he can survive."
Imperial Concubine Lan snorted and laughed: "When Imperial Concubine Yun gave birth to that little bastard, she went to the underworld. She only saw her child once. She must have missed him very much. I might as well do a good deed and let the mother and child meet in the underworld."
Lian Zhu: "But if you go too far, the Queen will definitely find out."
Imperial Concubine Lan gave her a glare that revealed a bit of gentle concern: "When children are sick, medicine is three-quarters toxic. If the dosage is too light or too heavy, it will cause serious consequences. You just need to find someone to keep an eye on the Imperial Hospital and take good care of them. Don't make any mistakes."
Lian Zhu didn't dare to look at her, he lowered his head and said yes.
After Imperial Concubine Lan finished her explanation, she frowned slightly and said, "Besides, that little bastard is about to turn three. Although the Emperor hasn't mentioned him in the past three years, I still feel that he is a hidden danger. I don't want my child to have any more stumbling blocks in his future."
Lian Zhu: "I will get it done as soon as possible."

Ye Xiaoyuan went to the Imperial Hospital in the evening.
When he came back this time, his face was full of smiles. The Imperial Physician was very easy to talk to today. The medicine he prescribed for Your Highness was more and better than last time, three sets in total. Your Highness doesn't have to worry about medicine for tomorrow.
When he went to the kitchen to cook medicine, he glanced at the little eunuch curled up in the corner of the kitchen. The little eunuch had been feverish and blurred his consciousness, shivering in the tattered quilt wrapped around him.
When Ye Xiaoyuan was cooking the medicine, the young eunuch barely opened his eyes and tried his best to breathe, as if he wanted to inhale all the smell of the medicine into his lungs so that he could survive this disaster.
"This medicine is for the little prince."
Ye Xiaoyuan said indifferently.
The young eunuch trembled and nodded: "I...I understand..."
He vaguely remembered the little prince lying on the bed today, a thin and small ball, sick, who deserved to be kept at a high price. No matter how you looked at it, he needed medicinal herbs to cure his illness and save his life more than a servant like him whose life was worth less.
Seeing him like this, I'm afraid he won't be able to survive tonight. Ye Xiaoyuan pondered while watching the medicine, and when it was ready, he quickly served it and sent it to the bedroom.
Qu Dubian was feeling sleepy, so he closed his eyes and drank the medicine from Ye Xiaoyuan's hand.
However, just as his mouth touched the edge of the medicine bowl, a pop-up window suddenly popped up from the crude [Disease Simulator] in his mind, with bold red font suddenly appearing:
[It has been detected that this fever treatment drug is suitable for humans over the age of twelve. The host is young and weak, and drinking it will cause adverse consequences and risk of death.
Recommended hosts:
1. Drink a few more drinks to see if you are lucky enough to die.
2. Drink the medicine, and the simulator will decompose it, which will light up the "drug overdose [fever]" type disease simulation. (Note: Only the first decomposition will not have adverse effects on the host's body)
3. Refuse to drink.]
Qu Dubian shuddered and all his sleepiness disappeared in an instant.
Depend on! !
Someone wants to harm him!
The child on the bed slowly opened his eyes, revealing a hint of astonishment.
Ye Xiaoyuan smiled knowingly and coaxed gently, "Your Highness is afraid of bitterness, let's drink the medicine and then eat the remaining sweet cakes to fill our stomach."
When the medicine bowl was lifted, the spoon was filled with black medicine juice.
"Your Highness, be good and drink your medicine."
Qu Watanabe: “…”
His brain, which had fought its way to the center position in a scheming talent show in his previous life, was spinning rapidly. Countless clips from palace fighting dramas flooded into his mind, and he quickly calmed down.
If what happened today was not an accident, then his current situation did not seem as insignificant as he had imagined.
Who will harm him?
Ye Banban? No.
He is a child who needs care everywhere. If Ye Banban wanted to harm him, there is no need to beat around the bush. He could just leave him here and he would surely die within two days.
Qu Dubian lowered his eyes to hide his thoughts, chose the second option given by the simulator, lowered his head to the edge of the bowl and took a small sip.
【Ding! The disease 'Drug overdose [fever]' has been included. 】
After the collection was completed, some changes occurred on the page.
【Submit your disease experience】
Status: 0 articles submitted
Currently simulated diseases:
1. Fever [level 1, 2, 3]
2. Symptoms of drug overdose [fever]
This simple simulator seemed to have more hidden functions and was more useful than he had imagined.
Qu Dubian swallowed the first sip, and when he took the second sip he vomited on the side of the bed. Tears came suddenly, and he kept pretending to dry heave.
While vomiting and acting, he calmly recorded his grudges in a small notebook.
Anyone who prevents him from living a safe and long life is his enemy!
