While Ren Huai and Zhu Siying searched Langya City overnight, Zhu Yuancun went to Xiayun Palace, the palace where Jiang Yuan originally lived.
He knew that with Zhu Siying's temperament, he would never give up, but he had successfully settled Jiang Yuan and was not afraid that Zhu Siying could find her.
Zhu Yuancun followed Jiang Yuan's instructions and found the shark oil and everlasting lamp in her palace.
He had no face to face Zhu Sijia and did not dare to enter Beichen Palace to pray for her, so he lit up one lantern after another in the empty Xiayun Palace.
The candlelight illuminated the young man's pale face and melted away the chill of the spring night. Zhu Yuancun worshiped one after another bright lamp and muttered:
"In the heavens above, all the gods and Buddhas, no matter what method you use, as long as you can protect my sister, I wish Scarlett a safe passage through this calamity, a smooth and worry-free life, and a long life. I wish Yuancun, I am willing to sacrifice half of my life in exchange for this." .”
Hot tears fell in the wind coming through the hall, and the bright lights in the hall flickered on and off as if sensing something, answering his prayers.
…
A whole night passed, but Zhu Siying and Ren Huai still couldn't find Jiang Yuan's whereabouts.
Ren Huai was already exhausted after running around with her all night, let alone Zhu Siying?
Langya Market began to become lively, with pedestrians rushing along the long street and the cries of countless breakfast stalls coming and going.
Ren Huai got hungry very quickly at his age. He touched his empty stomach and pulled Zhu Siying into a restaurant:
"County Lord, people are as good as iron rice. Let's have breakfast first and rest for half a day before looking for you."
How can Zhu Siying be in the mood to eat? She sighed:
"Little Marquis, I have no mood or appetite until I dig deep enough to find Jiang Yuan."
Ren Huai had no choice but to say bluntly:
"According to Yuan Cun's resourcefulness, if he wants to save a person, he will definitely make her traces unknown to everyone in the world. We searched all night to no avail, not to mention that even if she is found, killing her will not be helpful to the mother's condition. For now, let's go ahead and find her. The most important thing is to fill your stomach and return to the palace to be by your side."
According to various doctors, Zhu Sijia's poison has not been resolved and she may only be able to survive for another seven days at most.
Ren Huai's words are right, but not pleasant. My sister is just the one who needs company when she needs company. She is someone who misses her every time she looks at her. Without the help of a miracle doctor who can rejuvenate her...
Zhu Sijia might die in a foreign land and become a cold corpse, accompanying the loess.
She was so beautiful, so gentle, and treated the women around her so well. It had only been a year or two since the two sisters settled their feud, but it was really unfair that she ended up with such a hasty end.
When Zhu Siying thought of this, her tears fell down in large numbers and fell on the steaming buns. She swallowed them in her stomach regardless.
Ren Huai was right, she should have eaten and drank enough to accompany her sister.
Zhu Siying devoured one big meat bun, then reached out to get the second one in retaliation, and continued to gnaw on it with tears in her eyes.
"Cough cough cough..." Zhu Siying ate too quickly and choked on the steamed bun with soy sauce. Her eyes turned red from coughing and she pointed to the teapot in front of Ren Huai, "Water."
Ren Huai was about to pour it for her, but unexpectedly the kettle was empty. He looked around and stood up to get the teapot from the empty table behind him:
"Just wait, I'll get it right away."
Her appearance is really distressing.
Zhu Siying nodded.
Ren Huai got up in a hurry and walked away in a hurry. The back table happened to be placed against the stairs. When he wanted to move forward, he accidentally knocked over the luggage of a woman walking down the stairs.
There was a "clang", and I didn't know what was in her bag. It seemed that it was not light.
The sound startled everyone in the hall, and Zhu Siying's attention was also attracted. Ren Huai was seen hurriedly picking up things on the ground for the woman, while the woman stood there and lowered her head and said:
"It doesn't matter. Is this young master injured?"
This familiar face, familiar voice... Zhu Siying tried her best to recall, wasn't this the goddess doctor she went to see Yu in Xijing earlier!
She actually came to Langya too!
Zhu Siying was overjoyed and swallowed the contents of her throat. She picked up her skirt and ran to the female doctor:
"Sister Miracle Doctor! We meet again!"
The female doctor was stunned for a moment, and then she said to Zhu Siying: "The third young lady in Prince Yan's residence, do you have a wrong memory?"
Zhu Siying held her hand warmly: "I remember correctly, when did you travel to Langya?"
Female doctor: "I have been here for more than half a month, and I want to leave today and go north to Liaodong."
Zhu Siying and Ren Huai were both shocked. Ren Huai asked hurriedly: "Here, have you ever heard about the poisoning of Empress Zhaoyi? His Majesty is now inviting famous doctors from all over the world to Qi Palace to treat the empress. Why don't you go?"
Although the female doctor in front of him has an ordinary appearance, she has superb medical skills and uncanny ways of getting away with nothing. Ren Huai heard Zhu Siying tell her about her.
The female doctor said helplessly:
"Why haven't you been there? As soon as the daughter of the people heard that Zhaoyi was poisoned, she asked herself to come to the palace for treatment three times in front of Qi Palace. However, because I am a woman and my coarse clothes and grass shoes were all The guards dismissed him as a charlatan.”
"Today is my last day in Langya, you two, let's say goodbye."
Zhu Siying cried and pulled her sleeves:
"Sister Miracle Doctor, please don't leave. Those people in the Imperial City are blind, and sooner or later I will find a way to deal with them. But my life is hanging by a thread right now. I beg you, can you come with me to the palace to see her?"
Seeing how determined she was to go, Ren Huai was still worried that it would be difficult to convince her, but to his surprise, the female doctor readily agreed:
"Okay, the daughter of the people is willing to go with you."
…
After entering the palace, because the female doctor was recommended by Zhu Siying, her name and place of origin had to be registered with Hu Shunhai. Only then did a few people learn the name of the female doctor.
The female doctor's surname is Shi, and her single name is Ye. She has never told where she studied, and she is extremely mysterious.
When Zhu Siying led her into the hall in silence, she happened to see Yan Xiu wiping Zhu Sijia's face with a hot towel.
He was so engrossed in what he was doing that he didn't even realize that a group of onlookers were coming behind him.
Yan Xiu said to her softly: "Cicada, the weather in Langya is very good today. It is very suitable to go out and fly a kite. When you wake up, how about I take you to fly a kite in the garden together?"
"I almost forgot, you don't even know what Qi Palace looks like. I'd better take you to see it first. If you don't like it, we will leave Langya early. Cicada, I know you can hear me, promise I must persevere."
This kind of scene would make those who heard it cry. Ren Huai's eyes were dry and he said in a hoarse voice, "I have seen your Majesty."
Yan Xiu just stood up and saw that there was a folk woman in the hall, so he was not suspicious.
Ren Huai and Zhu Siying explained their purpose to him. Unexpectedly, he did not doubt Shi Ye at all, so he nodded and asked her to treat him.
Everyone understood that as long as Zhu Sijia could have a chance of survival, Yan Xiu had nothing to fear.
Shi Ye bowed briefly and ordered the people in the palace to prepare silver needles and other items. Then he walked directly to the bed and sat down. He took Zhu Sijia's hand out of the quilt and carefully diagnosed the pulse.
It turns out that this is the poison she was poisoned with...
Shi Ye already had an idea in his mind.
