Chapter 264: Slapping the Dashun Dynasty in the Face
The maid made up her mind and said, "Since that's the case, this is the only way to do it."
Seeing that the maid agreed, He Zhiran took the initiative to support her and followed her to the Crown Princess's bedroom.
Unlike what they imagined, the Crown Princess's bedroom was not the largest in the backyard. Not only was it not the largest, it also looked a bit shabby and was located in a remote area.
Based on He Zhiran's experience of watching TV dramas in his previous life, the fact that the Crown Princess lived in such a place showed that she was not favored by the Crown Prince.
Not to mention the Prince's Mansion, even for an ordinary family, there is no reason to let the wife live in such a place.
Full of doubts, the two followed the maid into the bedroom.
In fact, they didn’t know that this was not a bedroom at all, but the cold palace of the prince’s mansion.
The maid thought that they were all from the Prince's Mansion and knew all these things, so she didn't explain anything.
From the outside, this place looks like a small bedroom, but after walking in, He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye were stunned.
The two also realized that this was most likely the cold palace.
He Zhiran couldn't help but complain in his heart: Emperor Shunwu is really pedantic. Thinking back to the time when the men of the Mohist school guarded the border and defeated the enemies in southern Xinjiang.
Why would a small defeated country send its daughter to such a place to suffer as a marriage partner?
The same is true in Southern Xinjiang. It is obvious that they do not take the Dashun Dynasty seriously. Otherwise, how could they dare to treat the princess who came to marry into the Dashun family in this way?
This is simply a slap in the face of the Dashun Dynasty...
Of course, the purpose of their trip was to meet the Fourth Princess, and they would not care about the things that Emperor Shunwu should worry about.
Southern Xinjiang does not have as many rules as Dashun, and the people's customs are more open than Dashun. There is no such thing as outsiders not being able to enter the harem.
Therefore, when the two followed the maid to the cold palace, they met many guards along the way, but no one questioned them.
The maid limped with the two of them directly to the fourth princess's room, and asked another maid to ask the prince to call a witch doctor.
Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran took a quick look around. There was only a dim oil lamp burning in the room, and there was nothing else in the room, making it look dead and dull.
A woman with disheveled hair was lying on a broken wooden bed facing the door.
He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye walked over quickly.
Mo Jiuye had often been to the palace since he was a child, and he was the one who escorted the Fourth Princess to her marriage, so he was not unfamiliar with the appearance of the person in front of him.
After confirming the identity of the fourth princess, Mo Jiuye nodded slightly towards He Zhiran.
He Zhiran then reached out and placed his hand on the fourth princess' wrist.
Almost two minutes passed before He Zhiran raised his hand.
The maid anxiously asked, "How is the Crown Princess?"
He Zhiran shook his head: "She is already at the end of her rope, hanging on by a thread. You should make preparations as soon as possible!"
What she didn't say was that when he took her pulse, he felt that her pulse was somewhat similar to that of several Mo brothers who were poisoned, but not exactly the same.
He Zhiran guessed that there was a high possibility that the fourth princess was infected with a Gu, but it was different from the puppet Gu infected by the Mo brothers.
He Zhiran didn't say anything until he was completely sure.
"No... you're talking nonsense. The Crown Princess is a precious body, it's impossible for her to die like this. You don't understand medicine at all, so you're just saying that."
In fact, the maid knew in her heart that the Crown Princess was indeed dying, but she just didn't want to believe this fact.
She entered the palace and followed the Fourth Princess since she was a child. The Fourth Princess treated her very well and even often helped her family.
She had long decided that she would be with the Fourth Princess in this life. Even when she followed her to southern Xinjiang to marry into the royal family and the princess became an unpopular Crown Princess, she never thought of leaving. She even thought that even if the Fourth Princess really died, she would definitely follow her to not let Her Royal Highness be alone.
He Zhiran also expressed helplessness about this, saying that she is a doctor, not a god.
The Fourth Princess' condition is now much more serious than Mo Xiuyan, who they rescued, and there is no cure at all.
Moreover, she could tell from the Fourth Princess's pulse that she had suffered no less than three miscarriages, which had completely damaged her foundation. Coupled with her excessive worry, she was afraid she would not survive the night.
She glanced at the maidservant with a sad face and spread her hands helplessly: "The Crown Princess's situation is here. If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do."
Despite saying this, He Zhiran had no intention of leaving.
Because she guessed that since the prince could get the fourth princess to such a place, he had probably given up the marriage with Dashun and would not care about her life or death.
The maid who just went out to look for the prince will probably return empty-handed. At that time, they will have to place their last hope on themselves.
As He Zhiran expected, the maid who went to find the prince came back in about half an hour.
"Sister Lan, His Royal Highness's men wouldn't let me in, and they said they'd punish me if I disturbed His Royal Highness's pleasure."
Now, Lan'er was completely petrified.
After a long pause, she trembled and said, "Is Her Royal Highness going to die in Southern Border like this?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the two maids started crying at the same time and even tried to go to the bedside to wake the fourth princess up.
Seeing this, He Zhiran quickly stopped the two from doing so.
"She was already on the verge of collapse. Are you still doing this because you think she's dying too slowly?"
At this moment, Lan'er no longer cared about the disrespect in He Zhiran's tone, and knelt in front of her crying.
"Please save our princess. If you can save her, I will do anything for you."
Although He Zhiran did not have a good impression of the Fourth Princess, the two maids in front of him were definitely loyal servants.
She simply couldn't bear to be cruel to such a person.
Unfortunately, she was powerless to do anything about the Fourth Princess's current situation.
She gently helped Lan'er up and sighed, "I have a way to make your princess wake up. She can tell you some things at this time, but I don't have the ability to let her continue to live."
Lan'er saw that her tone was firm and she was not lying. Then she looked at the fourth princess lying on the bed with her eyes closed and no sign of life. She was already prepared to be buried alive.
But before that, she still wanted to serve the Fourth Princess one more time.
Lan Er wiped away her tears and said, "Please let the princess wake up."
He Zhiran did not hesitate and took out the needle bag and a cardiac stimulant from the space.
By taking these two approaches together, the fourth princess will definitely wake up.
She first used silver needles to prick several acupuncture points on the Fourth Princess, and then, when the two maids were not paying attention, injected the Fourth Princess with a shot of cardiac stimulant.
After about five minutes, the fourth princess slowly woke up.
The moment they saw her open her eyes, Lan'er and another maid rushed to the side of the bed.
"Princess, you finally woke up."
The fourth princess looked listlessly at the two maids who had grown up with her, and then her gaze fell on Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran.
"He... who are they?"
At this point, Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran felt that there was no need to hide their identities.
He Zhiran, in particular, knew best that using this method to wake up the Fourth Princess would not only fail to prolong her life, but would accelerate her death.
