Huang Lao looked at the silent carriage and said, "After I examine your mother's body, ask someone to take me to see the patients outside the city."
Zhong Lizhou's face lit up with joy: "Sir, you are so righteous! You can take a rest for a night and go tomorrow."
Huang Lao sighed: "Who knows how many people will die in one night, the sooner we go, the sooner we can find a solution."
No matter how arbitrary he was in treating patients in the past, he could not just let it go when it came to an epidemic.
Too many people have died! If the situation is not properly controlled, even more serious consequences will occur.
Everyone will be involved and no one can escape unscathed.
"Prince, we've arrived at the palace!" The voice of the guard outside the carriage came. Zhonglizhou adjusted his expression and stretched out his hand to invite Mr. Huang and Xie Siheng to get out of the car.
Ji Changying and Zhou followed closely behind, and the two of them followed all the way into the gate of the palace.
"Prince! You're back! The prince has received the message and is waiting for you in the lobby!"
When they entered, a butler in a long gown with a smile on his face bowed and saluted.
"Father, are you back so early today?"
"Yes, the prince received the news that you brought an honored guest, so he hurried back."
The butler glanced at the people behind the prince and bowed slightly. Zhonglizhou had no intention of introducing them, so he could only lead them to the lobby.
Unlike the luxurious and magnificent palace with carved beams and painted rafters that Ji Changying had imagined, this Prince Ping's Palace, like the title of Prince Ping, seemed unremarkable.
The courtyard is square, and apart from the corridor and the path, there is no scenery at all. The main feature of the entire palace is open and flat.
Along the way, I didn't see many servants and maids.
Instead, there were many guards with righteous looks, patrolling the mansion diligently.
Even the area that was originally a garden was turned into a training ground, where a row of various weapons were placed.
Zhou excitedly pulled Ji Changying's sleeve and said, "Ying, look at all the things there. They look so impressive! Can I try them?"
Ji Changying quickly held her down: "This is not ours. We need their permission before we can touch it."
"Whose is that? I'll tell him!" Zhou patted his chest with a confident look on his face.
The housekeeper couldn't help but take another look, feeling that something was wrong with the way this person spoke.
"Those belong to my father. They are all his treasures. Even I can't touch them easily."
Zhongli Zhou almost said that Zhou was just daydreaming.
Zhou curled her lips: "Then your father is really stingy!"
Her father always gave her his treasures first! She felt proud when she thought of this.
Zhonglizhou actually agreed with Zhou...
Arriving at the lobby, the butler stepped forward and entered the hall: "Your Highness! The prince has arrived with guests!"
"Father!"
"Uncle!"
Ji Changying and Zhou both looked at the person at the top.
Prince Ping had a heroic appearance and a pair of very calm eyes. He looked intimidating without even getting angry. At this moment, his attention was all on Xie Siheng's face.
The moment he saw him, surprise flashed across his face, and he couldn't help but stand up: "Xiao Heng? What happened to your face? Which idiot did this!"
When he finished speaking, he looked murderous and slapped the table, which immediately broke into pieces.
The housekeeper hurriedly called for someone to clean up.
Zhou's eyes lit up. "Next time, use a stone table. That way, it will look more impressive and powerful. I have experience."
Zhou patted his chest with an expression that said 'you trust me'.
You could hear a pin drop in the lobby.
Ji Changying stepped forward, pulled Zhou over, and whispered, "Stone hurts when you clap your hands. It doesn't feel as good as wood. Next time, don't give anyone advice carelessly, okay?"
Zhou nodded with regret on her face.
····
Zhong Lizhou explained awkwardly: "Dad, I asked these two to take care of Mom."
After being interrupted by Zhou, Prince Ping did not continue to question Xie Siheng in front of so many people. He looked at Zhong Lizhou unhappily and said, "What's wrong with you? You brought a guest here and didn't even introduce him!"
Zhonglizhou: “…”
It was obvious that his father forgot everything else when he saw his cousin!
"...This is Elder Huang from Yaowang Valley who came with my cousin. He's been taking care of my cousin all along the way. He's a very skilled doctor."
"I hired these two to take care of Mom. They're very strong."
Ji Changying frowned. Isn't he a personal guard? How did this become a caregiver?
King Ping glanced at Ji Changying and her daughter again, and felt a little sad.
Are they the ones who are strong?
He didn't take it seriously at all and turned to look at Mr. Huang: "So it's Doctor Huang from Medicine King Valley! I didn't expect you to come to Liangzhou!"
King Ping was very excited. "It is really a great honor for us to have you here. You must have seen our situation on the way into the city. I wonder..."
Old Huang looked at him with some disdain: "Stop! The situation is unclear, don't put your hope on me. I'm a doctor, not a god. There are also diseases that I can't cure!"
"That's right, we all know it. As long as you are willing to help, the people of Liangzhou City will remember your kindness!"
King Ping was genuinely excited.
Yaowang Valley is very famous. Even when his father wanted to invite Doctor Huang to work as an imperial physician in the palace, he was ruthlessly rejected.
Many people came with gold, silver and treasures to ask for Doctor Huang’s help but never saw him. Unexpectedly, he now came to their Liangzhou on his own initiative!
King Ping couldn't help but feel happy just thinking about it.
"Don't flatter me. It's not a favor to you. Just don't blame me if the treatment doesn't work, even if you have a conscience!"
Old Huang laughed sarcastically, saying that after so many years of practicing medicine, he had long seen through people's hearts.
Zhong Lizhou was concerned about his mother's health, and upon hearing this, he couldn't help but ask, "How about I go and ask her to come over and have Doctor Huang take a look?"
King Ping waved his hand and said, "I'll go!"
After he finished speaking, he ran out in a hurry, not at all as steady as he had been when they first met.
After just a moment's wait, Prince Ping came striding over, carrying a woman on his back, followed by two nervous maids. "Your Highness! Slow down!"
Prince Ping looked rude, but he was very careful and considerate when he put the princess down, which made Ji Changying feel better about Prince Ping.
"Why are you in such a hurry? I'm not even properly dressed and you're bringing me here to see you. How rude!"
Song Ruqing glanced at King Ping angrily, adjusted his hair, and then looked at the people around him.
When Ji Changying saw the princess's appearance, she couldn't help but take a breath. This was the most beautiful woman she had seen since she came here!
Her skin is as white as cream and she is dignified and graceful. She doesn't look like a child's mother at all. She is clearly a beautiful and gentle big sister!
Zhou was also stunned, staring blankly at Song Ruqing: "Look at you so well."
Song Ruqing looked at Zhou's silly expression and suddenly felt playful.
He hooked his finger at Zhou, and Zhou ran over with a happy look on her face.
"Does it look better when you get closer?"
Zhou nodded frantically: "It looks good, very good!"
