Chapter 35: Water in the Side Courtyard



Wang Yi came out of Zheng Yeheng's study, stomping his feet with gritted teeth.

"Damn Zheng Yeheng, just go die. Why would I treat your illness? I knew he wouldn't let me go easily."

She quickly finished what she could do and then tried to find a way to leave.

Suddenly, a little maid blocked her way. It was Yun'er.

"Auntie, please stay. The master invites you to come over."

The prince's fever really subsided after taking her medicine. Yun'er also looked at Wang Yi twice more and spoke more politely.

princess?

Because of what happened yesterday?

There was no way Wang Yi wouldn't go. She was staying in someone else's house, so she had to give face when the hostess called her.

Following Yun'er to the backyard, I walked through the winding path among green trees, flowers and rockery. After turning a corner, I suddenly heard a whimpering sound with the mouth covered.

I saw a girl with her hands tied from behind, her body covered in blood, and the palace soldiers were whipping her with whips. She was about to die.

"Yue'er?"

Wang Yi walked past her, and Yue'er's eyes were filled with hatred and resentment.

It’s all because of her!

If it weren't for her, how could I have been beaten so badly by the princess!

Opposite Yue'er, the princess sat drinking tea, her expression calm.

"Greetings, Princess." Wang Yi frowned slightly. This woman was quite cruel. She could be so cruel to her own maid. She looked like she was going to beat her to death.

"Can you cure the heat poison in the prince's body?" the princess asked directly.

"able."

There's nothing deceptive about this.

After Wang Yi answered, the princess didn't respond for a long time. She just waved to Yun'er and ignored her.

This reaction is a bit wrong.

Could it be that the princess doesn't want the prince to recover at all?

Yun'er led Wang Yi back to the side courtyard.

It was late today, and the medicines stored in the palace had been "used up". Wang Yi had already written down the herbs that would be used and gave them to Ding Sanshun to buy.

Of course, she wrote down a list of all the herbs that could be purchased, and also wrote down the names of the herbs.

In the eyes of Doctor Bai and Ding Sanshun, this was Wang Yi's stupid way of not wanting to reveal the antidote prescription. She bought the medicine and chose it herself, so naturally she would not reveal the prescription.

In fact, this was just Wang Yi's idea of ​​stockpiling goods, because she could detoxify the prince right now, and she only needed the detoxification grass, nothing else.

But taking advantage of the opportunity to make money and seek benefits for herself is what she deserves.

So the detoxification time is set for tomorrow noon.

Wang Yi and his family will stay here tonight.

"Mother is back!"

The whole family came forward and contributed 12 points of filial piety.

They looked nervously at Wang Yi, who seemed to be in a bad state, and accidentally burped.

They had already eaten dinner, but the prince gave them too much.

Yue'er's bloodied image still lingered before her eyes. Wang Yi was a pure urban woman. Although she had experienced many hardships since she entered the book, the sight of a girl being beaten to death would still be enough for her to recover for many days. Her face was unnaturally pale.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Li Shenggen sensed something was wrong, so he dispersed everyone and helped Wang Yi back to the side room.

Wang Yi came to her senses after sitting down. She grabbed Li Shenggen's wrist with her backhand:

"Mom feels something is wrong. Tonight, you have to take turns keeping watch. I'm worried something might happen."

"What happened?"

Wang Yi told the princess about her threats.

"Does the princess want you to save people, or does she not want you to save them?"

Wang Yi shook her head. If she could understand, she wouldn't be so nervous.

"Anyway, it's not a good thing. We must be careful tonight. We are in their territory, so it's not wrong to be extra cautious."

"Okay, Mom, I get it."

At this time, Wang Juanhua came over with Yuan'er, holding a tray.

"Mom, this is the meal we left for you."

Inside the tray was a large bowl filled with slices of meat.

"Juanhua, you are really my good daughter-in-law!"

Wang Yi was about to cry.

I secretly calculated that including the meat and oil, this bowl of food would probably contain more than 3,000 calories.

"Mom, you work so hard for us out there, leaving some food for you is nothing. Eat it quickly while it's hot."

Wang Juanhua spoke shyly and contributed 1 point of filial piety. Wang Yi couldn't help but scoop a large spoonful of sugar and oil mixture into her mouth with tears in her eyes.

You are so filial!

That night.

The side courtyard was close to the back door, and people started coming in one after another since Wang Yi proposed the bet.

Most of them were delivering medicinal herbs, but this time Wang Yishi wanted all of them at once, so they had no choice but to collect all the different medicinal herbs they could find.

There was no bedding in the house in the side yard, so everyone found a spacious room, spread out the bedding they brought, and lay down on the bed and the floor.

It's better to get by for one night than to be hit by a scattered attack.

The sixth and fifth brothers guarded the first half of the night, sitting outside the door without saying a word, just looking at the gate of the yard.

After a while, the twin brothers replaced them.

So it was midnight.

Jinbao and Yinbao were so sleepy that they yawned and stared at each other, afraid that they would fall asleep.

Suddenly, Yinbao's nose twitched.

"Third brother, I seem to smell something burnt."

"Yes, there is smoke."

Suddenly, the two brothers saw a ray of fire spreading rapidly along the wall of the side room.

Then came the wild laughter of a woman.

"Burn, burn her to death, burn them to death, hahaha!"

"Fire, burn them to death!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

The woman's voice was crazy, sharp and piercing.

"Oh no, Mom! Big brother, second brother! Wife! Get up quickly, get up quickly!"
