Listening to the conversation between the two siblings and looking at the sky, Luo Lan reluctantly stopped them and said:
"I've heard that the biggest problem you two are facing right now is this girl's illness. If you trust me and give me three months, I can't guarantee I can completely cure your sister's illness, but I can guarantee that I can significantly reduce her attacks."
Hearing this, the groom suddenly knelt on the ground and said, "Princess, if you can cure my little sister's illness, I will do anything for you, even let me work like a slave or die."
"Brother, don't beg her. We just wanted to kill her. How could she be so kind as to save me? She must be trying to trick us into going back with her, and then go to Shuntian Prefecture to file a complaint and punish us."
Listening to Ali's words, Luo Lan smiled helplessly. She waved her hand at the groom and said, "Get up. Your sister doesn't believe me. What good will it do if you kneel to death? To tell you the truth, no one in Daning Country can cure her illness except me."
Luo Lan was not exaggerating. Asthma was a very troublesome disease. Even for a medical genius like her, it could not be cured in a few days, let alone the ancient people who lacked medical skills.
The man was still kneeling on the ground. He bit his lip and looked at Luo Lan, saying solemnly:
"A-Li, your illness has dragged on for so many years. My brother and I have traveled to countless places and seen countless doctors, but your illness has only gotten worse. Since Princess Yu said it can be cured, I believe her, and you have to believe me too. I can work like a slave to earn the medical fees, as long as you are obedient."
Ali pursed his lips and lowered his head, covered his mouth with his hands and coughed a few times, then said softly:
"Brother, I don't want treatment anymore. We don't have the money, and I don't want to see you suffer for me anymore. Let's find a place and live a good life, okay? If I really die one day, you can bury me and let me go to the other world to find my parents. We can't go on like this. I'm really tired, really tired."
At this point, Ali's cold eyes were suddenly filled with tears. Thinking of everything she had experienced along the way, she felt really sorry for her brother.
The man suddenly turned sideways and held Ali in his arms. His voice was a little hoarse as he said bitterly:
"A-Li, I'm sorry for you. Even if I have to try my best, even if there is only a glimmer of hope, I have to try. Will you listen to me? I saw that magical thing Princess Yu used just now. Just one injection and you'll be healed. Otherwise, it takes you two or three days to recover every time you get sick, so let's give it a try."
Seeing the brother and sister suffering so much, Luo Lan's heart softened again.
She said quietly:
"Alright, I don't want any money. I'll treat your sister for free. If you feel bad about it, just do some odd jobs at Prince Yu's mansion. Is that all right?"
Hearing this, the man turned back and looked at her in shock, "Are you telling the truth?"
"Why isn't it true? You don't understand the situation in Prince Yu's Mansion. Right now, Grandma and Uncle don't love the Prince Yu Mansion. I just opened a clinic and I'm in need of a few helpers. If you're willing, you can stay. If you're not willing, I won't force you."
After saying this, she stood up and said to the brother and sister:
"You guys discuss it, I'll wait for you in the car."
She could see that the brother and sister were not unforgivable evil people. With a little guidance, they might be able to turn from evil to good. It was just that the girl named Ali didn't quite believe her.
She had already said everything she needed to say, and now that she had said this, if they really didn't believe her, there was nothing she could do.
Sitting in the carriage, she thought of Leng Yu. It was almost noon and she should go back to bring him food.
After a while, Ali lifted the curtain door and got into the carriage. She said to Luo Lan with a red face:
"My brother and I have agreed to trust you for now. We've been on the run all the time anyway. If we fall for your trick this time, we'll just have to take it as our bad luck."
Luo Lan smiled bitterly, "You didn't kill me, nor did you hurt me. Even if I took you to Shuntian Prefecture, what would be the point?"
Ali looked at her with a pout, "I don't know. We've been fighting and arguing with people all the way. We don't believe there are good people in this world."
Looking at Ali's somewhat indifferent eyes, Luo Lan could understand that people who lived a displaced life would inevitably be wary of others.
On the way back to the capital, Luo Lan learned from Ali's intermittent words that her brother's name was Agang, who used to be a bodyguard in the escort agency. Later, because her illness became more serious, Agang decided to take her to visit famous doctors in Daning Kingdom, praying to find a cure.
They had been cheated out of all their money and had to sleep on the streets. Her brother suffered a lot in order to pay for her medical treatment.
This time when they came to the capital, they went to the most famous medical clinic, Changshoutang, to see a doctor. The doctor asked them for the consultation fee, but they couldn't afford it. The doctor then asked them to kill Princess Yu who had taken away his business, and said that if they succeeded, he would not only treat Ali for free, but also pay them an extra ten taels of silver.
If they failed, Agang would have to cut off one of his fingers and pay them twenty taels of silver as compensation.
After hearing this, Luo Lan understood. It seemed that Xiao Zhi went to the door of another medical clinic to solicit customers, which caused dissatisfaction, so someone wanted to make trouble for her.
But killing her to silence her was a really cruel move.
Luo Lan couldn't help but take a deep breath in his heart.
After knowing this, she couldn't help but sneer in her heart. Not only was the Prince Yu's Mansion suppressed by people in the court, but even the common people did not take them seriously. Otherwise, how could they dare to think of killing her to silence her? Isn't it because they think that even if she was killed, she would be like an ant that was ignored by everyone, and the court would not take it seriously at all.
Thinking of this, she felt more and more that if she wanted to survive in this world, she had to become strong.
They finally returned to Prince Yu's Mansion. Ah Cai came over and helped Luo Lan get off the carriage.
"Princess, did the trip go smoothly?"
Ah Li and her brother Ah Gang, who were standing behind Luo Lan, were a little reserved. Luo Lan nodded and said:
"It's OK. This is A-Li and A-Gang. You can arrange accommodation for them later. They will stay here temporarily."
Ah Cai was a bit confused about these two people. She didn't understand why the princess would bring back two people after a visit. However, she quickly agreed and took them into the other courtyard of the palace.
Ali and A Gang were just worried that Luo Lan would tell others what they had done, but she didn't say a word to anyone else, which made them feel a little relieved.
After Luo Lan returned to the palace, she directly ordered the queen to call Xiao Zhi back. There were already two patients waiting for her in the clinic, and she didn't want Xiao Zhi to take the risk of going to other people's clinics to recruit people.
After Ah Hou left, Luo Lan took the pulse of the two patients, gave them some medicine, and told them how to take it when they returned home.
As soon as the patient left, Ah Hou ran back in a hurry, shouting as he ran,
"Princess, this is bad, Xiaozhi is missing."
