Chapter Ninety-Four: Scam



Qi Guze naturally had no improper thoughts about the young princess.

He truly regarded the young princess as his younger sister, and the scene from just now lingered in his mind. "I understand."

A moment later, the two returned to the young princess's room.

Inside the house.

Fusheng brought over some food, and Anning was drawn in by the aroma of the food, so she suddenly stood up.

Upon seeing this, Fusheng smiled, "Oh dear, Princess, you're all better now."

Seeing his daughter "come back to life," Prince Anping was overjoyed and hurriedly moved closer to look at her.

The young princess not only sat up, but even started talking, "Oh my, this aroma is so refreshing! Quickly, serve this princess her meal."

But the moment the young princess approached the dish, everything went black and she fainted.

It turned out that she had been feeling unwell since arriving in the capital. The aftereffects of not being used to the local environment were severe. She would vomit frequently, and the long period of not eating had caused her to suffer from severe hypoglycemia.

The imperial physicians in the capital couldn't make a proper diagnosis, since the patient was a young princess, and they dared not prescribe medicine arbitrarily.

Now that the young princess has fainted, everyone is in a panic.

Prince Anping cried out in anguish and grief, "Peace and tranquility!" He nearly fainted. The little princess, whose life hung by a thread, was the one he cared about most.

At this moment, everyone was terrified.

A royal physician hurriedly approached.

Qi Guze also moved closer, grasped the little princess's hand, and continuously channeled his true energy into her. The little princess took a deep breath, but showed no signs of waking up.

The news was quickly brought to the inn by the guards.

Inside the inn, Xu Yuehuai and his companions were as anxious as ants on a hot pan, all waiting for news.

The news came quickly.

Wei Yixiao looked coldly at Xu Yuehuai, "Not only did the little princess not eat your dish, but now something even more serious has happened. Logically speaking, from the moment the Emperor sent the Imperial Kitchen to get close to the little princess, her life and death have been tied to our Imperial Kitchen. Now... if something happens to the little princess, you will also be doomed."

Hearing this, Zhou Wan was terrified.

"Sir, sir, aren't you just framing me? Didn't you say that the little princess didn't eat any of my mother's cooking?"

Jiang Shichen, who was standing nearby, also became anxious, "Aren't you just framing me?"

As for Jiang Qianqian, she was terrified.

For a girl who had never experienced such a situation before, it was understandable that she was at a loss. When she thought that this matter might involve Zhou Wan and Xu Yuehuai, she suddenly remembered the meticulous care the two had given her along the way.

Jiang Qianqian didn't say a word, but simply stood in front of Zhou Wan.

Zhou Wan naturally wanted to protect Jiang Qianqian, so she pulled the little girl's hand tightly and made her hide behind her.

"You're asking for it," she scolded sternly, "hide behind me."

As for Ah Qi, despite his young age, he is a seasoned veteran, and he has already exchanged glances with Xu Yuehuai.

The look in his eyes seemed to say, "Why not fight it out on the righteous path? This is too much of a bullying."

At the same time, Ah Qi turned to look at everyone and said, "We don't need to ask them for anything, so why bother? We know it's a trumped-up charge."

Wei Yixiao was already furious and embarrassed, and reached out his hand.

He was about to speak when Xu Yuehuai spoke first.

It's unbelievable that she died before even starting her mission. She had never even met the little princess. Was the little princess incompatible with her? What was the reason? The two of them had already started arguing before they even met.

“One person does the deed and takes responsibility for it. What does it have to do with them? If you want to teach them a lesson, you might as well come to me.” Xu Yuehuai looked at Wei Yixiao.

Wei Yixiao sneered, "You are indeed a hero, but if anything happens to the little princess today, none of you will be able to leave."

"this……"

Let's all look at each other.

Chun San Niang was furious. "Aren't you bullying me?"

"We've bullied you, so what can you do to us?" Wei Yixiao smiled coldly.

“You...you are lawless.”

The shopkeeper also stood up. Wei Yixiao was already furious and embarrassed. Seeing the couple like this, he ordered, "They are really speaking rudely. Come on, give them a good beating and break their lower half."

The group had only just arrived in the capital when they encountered such a thing. Xu Yuehuai looked at Wei Yixiao and thought to herself, "Since things have come to this, we might as well take a gamble." She then said, "My father is the last disciple of the Medicine King Sun Simiao. I am the best at treating difficult and complicated diseases. I can cure her. Why don't you let me go and take a look?"

Now that things have come to this, and the other party is about to kill someone without even knowing the facts, Xu Yuehuai's professional knowledge of herbs is far inferior to that of A Qi, but now she can only try anything as a last resort.

"Oh?" Wei Yixiao was skeptical. "You're a girl, and you can heal people?"

"Whether it works or not, we'll find out by trying. Haven't you heard the saying, 'The sea cannot be measured by a bushel, and a true master does not reveal his abilities'?" Xu Yuehuai began to keep everyone in suspense.

Wei Yixiao stared at Xu Yuehuai.

Seeing that this was a young girl, and hearing Zhou Wan call her "mother" and Jiang Shichen address Xu Yuehuai as "grandmother," she felt strange. Xu Yuehuai was extremely intelligent and naturally guessed what the other party was thinking.

She chuckled softly, pointed to herself with her thumb, and said, "I am indeed their ancestor, the God of Longevity. I am seventy-three years old this year. I have become young again because I take elixirs every day. I take this."

Xu Yuehuai took out a bottle of wound medicine and shook it.

"Really?" This question startled everyone, especially since it was a critical moment of life and death.

But at this moment, Xu Yuehuai was talking nonsense with a straight face, and everyone actually looked at him with complete faith. This made Xu Yuehuai himself almost burst out laughing, but he managed to hold it in.

She thought sadly, "Xu Yuehuai, you pride yourself on being a capable person, but now you've made it so difficult for yourself to survive. You even promised to bring everyone to Chang'an to live a good life."

Is your good day going to end with your head rolling?

Now that we've managed to sneak into the Prince's mansion, what good will it do?

But then I thought, there seems to be no better way now that things have come to this. So what if I go? If I stick my head out, I'll die. If I pull it back, I'll be cut in two. What's there to be afraid of?

Wei Yixiao glanced coldly at Xu Yuehuai, as if pondering something.

After a moment, Wei Yixiao nodded.

"Then come with me to the Prince's residence."

The Prince of Anping's Palace.

The young princess was on the verge of death, barely clinging to life.

Prince Anping sought medical treatment for the young princess every day, and he didn't know how many doctors, physicians, and medical officers he had consulted.

But instead of recovering, his condition worsened.

The young princess is now as thin as a dragon in a pharmacy, skin and bones.

Prince Anping and the Emperor looked at each other, his eyes filled with pain and sorrow. A thousand words were left unsaid. The Emperor could never have imagined that bringing them to the capital would lead to such a thing.
