"It's a bit tricky. We only have a superficial understanding of the art of witchcraft and haven't mastered it in detail. We're not sure if we can save these three people."
Hearing that Mr. Huang had the same judgment as him, Court Envoy Song said with a serious expression.
Xie Siheng's expression straightened up: "Just give it a try."
Others can't even see the disease, let alone treat it. No matter whether it works or not, we have to try it. If we delay it any longer, there will be no hope of recovery.
Envoy Song looked at Mr. Huang and said, "Old friend, shall we work out a set of rules?"
Old Huang rolled his eyes and said, "Don't even think about stealing the unique skills of my Medicine King Valley! If you don't show me a few sealed medical records from your Imperial Hospital, don't even think about getting a single word out of me."
Envoy Song looked at him with a smile: "Okay, okay."
·····
It was two days later that Ji Changying woke up.
She glanced around and saw that it was her room, and her expression relaxed for a moment.
Yanyun walked in with the medicine in her hand and shouted in surprise when she saw her eyes were open. She knocked the medicine bowl to the ground and rushed out happily: "The princess is awake! The princess is awake!"
This high-pitched and excited voice instantly reminded Ji Changying of the situation before she fainted, and she turned over and sat up.
Just as she was about to put on her shoes and go out, she saw Zhou rushing in, followed by Hu, Ji Fengshou and others. Ji Fengyi and others who were studying hard at home also ran over and surrounded her.
"Are you awake?"
"Are you feeling unwell?"
"Are you feeling any worse?"
···
Looking at the concerned looks on their faces, Ji Changying was in a daze for a moment: "How did I get back?"
"You're still talking!" Madam Hu poked her forehead. "You said you were going to see your master, but who knew you wouldn't come back. It was only the next morning that Master Xie came to explain the situation and said you were fine. Only then did he have someone quietly bring you back."
Master?!
"Then how are my master and the others?" Thinking of this, Ji Changying no longer had time to poke his head and asked anxiously.
The atmosphere suddenly fell silent.
Seeing them like this, Ji Changying felt disappointed: "My master is gone?"
Zhou quickly waved her hands: "Not dead yet, just... dying soon."
Ji Changying felt relieved, then she started to worry again: "Why is he dying so soon?"
Ji Fengshou looked at her and said, "Don't worry. There's no news about them. I heard from Master Xie that they seem to have been infected by some bug. Old Huang and the others are trying to find a way to save them, but it seems to be a bit troublesome. We don't know if they can be saved yet."
Knowing that Ji Changying would definitely ask questions after she woke up, Xie Siheng did not hide anything when he came to her house and told her everything he needed to say.
Ji Changying nodded: "I understand, I'll go see him later."
There were still a lot of things in her mind that she hadn't sorted out.
Seeing that she was frowning just after waking up, Mrs. Hu sighed and couldn't help cursing Huiji in her heart: Damn old bald donkey, not only did he cheat her of her incense money, but he also harmed her children. The bastard deserves to be cursed to death!
The family called a doctor to examine Ji Changying. She got out of bed and jumped three times to show that she was really fine. Only then did the family let her go.
However, in order to prevent her from running to the Criminal Investigation Department without caring about her health, Ji Fengshou stared at her closely: "I'm going to the Criminal Investigation Department to check on Master Ren. You stay home, okay?"
Ji Changying looked at his and Zhou's nervous eyes and nodded helplessly.
Ji Fengshou then left with satisfaction.
Ji Changying waited until evening.
Ji Fengshou came back with Ji Changchuan. When he heard that his sister had woken up, Ji Changchuan came directly to Heyuan with his schoolbag on his back.
Ji Fengshou looked at Ji Changying with lingering fear: "I've already asked, they have found a solution now and are preparing things to treat it. But it's hard to say whether it will be successful. That bald donkey has no trace now, it's like he has evaporated from the face of the earth!"
Ji Changchuan couldn't help but speak up, "His Majesty was furious, practically digging up Prince Duan's mansion. The Criminal Investigation Department searched Huangjue Temple and the entire capital, but couldn't find any trace of Huiji. The Emperor and His Majesty asked about your situation every day and were very concerned about you."
Thinking of the emperor and Jiang Qianruo in the palace, Ji Changying's heart sank.
Every piece of news she heard that day was significant.
King Ping...is actually their uncle!
The deceased prince was most likely a descendant of the previous dynasty, otherwise how could he have stolen the country?
What is even more incredible is that Xie Siheng's mother was actually killed by Marquis Xuanping. Does Xie Siheng know about this?
These things made Ji Changying rub his head involuntarily, feeling a headache. Nanny Lai knew much more than they imagined, and she couldn't die.
Seeing the fatigue on her face, the father and son quickly changed the subject, said some funny things for a while, and then let her have a good rest.
Yanyun then spoke hesitantly, "Princess, the people from the posthouse have been coming every day these past two days to ask if they can come visit..."
Ji Changying was stunned for a moment. Inn?
Could it be because of what happened that night?
"You can reply to them next time. When I am well again, I will come to your house naturally."
Yanyun nodded and retreated silently.
After only two days of rest, Ji Changying couldn't wait to go out to the Criminal Investigation Department to check the situation.
As soon as I passed Tianmen Street, I found that the street was crowded with people. Many people were standing on tiptoe to look into the distance, and from time to time they would lower their heads to discuss with the people next to them.
Ji Changying and her companions' carriage was also stopped by people from the Imperial City Bureau, who politely asked the carriage to wait for a moment.
"Yanyun, what's going on outside?"
Yanyun, who was following the carriage, stopped a passerby and asked him, then immediately came over and replied:
"Princess! His Royal Highness, the Prince of Ping, has brought the spoils and captives into the capital. He's about to enter the palace. I heard he's brought quite a few valuables. To avoid any accidents, the Imperial City Administration has come here to maintain order!"
Ji Changying lifted the curtain and looked outside.
Through the crowd outside, one could vaguely see a group of people riding on horses walking on Tianmen Street, followed by a large number of guards escorting a vehicle slowly approaching.
When they got closer, Ji Changying saw Zhonglizhou in the front at a glance.
He was dressed in green, with handsome features. He looked straight ahead with a sharp gaze, and a gentle smile on the corners of his mouth. He didn't care at all about the gazes cast at him by the people around him.
After not seeing each other for half a year, Zhongli Zhou seemed to be more confident and calm.
Moving his gaze back, Ji Changying saw Ji Mingxue not far from Zhonglizhou, and his eyes widened in surprise.
She couldn't believe that this was her second brother!
At this moment, Ji Mingxue is completely different from before. His face is still the same, but his temperament is completely different.
His face was stern, and the muscles of his arms holding the reins seemed to be visible through his clothes. He looked so resolute and solemn, as if he was a completely different person.
Not to mention, this kind of temperament instantly raised the appearance of the second brother, who originally had regular features and good looks, to several levels.
