Chapter 1023: Chapter 1022: The Solution Chapter 1023: Chapter 1022: The Solution Everyone kept silent, rising one after another and filing out of the inner room, leaving the young husband and wife who would soon be eternally-divided by life and death.
Di Qiu and Di Yue had also been brought in from outside, and when they saw Liu Sisi erge, they imdiately rushed over to her.
“Grandmother, my mom…”
Di Qiu was nearly seven years old by now, at an especially sensitive age, and understood the aning of life and death. He leaned into Liu Sisi’s embrace, his little body trembling uncontrollably.
And the timid little Di Yue, just over three years old, clung to Liu Sisi from in front, sucking on her index finger and blinking her bewildered large eyes, clearly not yet understanding the aning of death and unable to comprehend the weeping of everyone around her.
“Be good! Don’t cry, Qiu’er, don’t cry, be good!”
The consolations were feeble and pale, everyone was imrsed in a sea of sorrow.
It was Di Hongyuan who had brought the two children to the county, and he stepped forward to ask Liu Sisi in a low voice.
“Third Sister-in-law, when Young Master Wuxin was curing you of the poison, did he ever ntion any other antidotes?”
Di Hongyuan was also among those who knew Yun Master Wuxin’s true identity.
Third Brother had not yet returned from Gongzhou City, and he knew that the details of the antidote, even though Liu Sisi was the patient, would not have been told to her. Regardless, he asked, clinging to a slim hope.
As expected, Liu Sisi shook her head in despair, “When Young Master Wuxin was curing of the poison, I was completely unconscious. Although I know a little about how he did it, it’s not helpful at all! The poison that hit and Feng’er is not the sa, so naturally the antidotes differ. Unless…”
“Unless what?”
Di Hongyuan pressed on eagerly.
Liu Sisi suddenly thought of sothing, her eyes widening in realization.
That’s right!
How could she have forgotten such a thing! Her own pig head!
Without further consideration for answering Di Hongyuan, she abruptly pushed aside the two siblings in her embrace and hurried into the inner room, ordering as she ran.
“Hurry! Fetch a bowl and a knife, there’s hope for Feng’er!”
There’s hope for Feng’er?
Surprise instantly awakened the people imrsed in sadness, and everyone got up, each springing into action.
“What exactly is going on? Does Feng’er…really have a chance?”
Ironsmith Fan hardly dared to believe his own ears, how could Feng’er suddenly be saved? Could it be that a divine doctor from Shenlong Valley had been summoned?
With that thought, he suddenly felt overjoyed!
Di Cheng, apparently still overwheld by the enormous surprise, remained dazedly sitting in front of Feng’er.
“What are you still dawdling for? Move aside quickly, don’t delay from saving her!”
Liu Sisi, at this mont exhilarated beyond asure, pushed the still bewildered Di Cheng aside and advanced to check on Feng’er’s condition.
Her breath was threadlike!
She was hanging by a thread.
“The bowl and the knife are here, Princess, how do you plan to save her? Do you need our help?”
Ironsmith Fan was visibly anxious, totally unconcerned with his current disheveled state, and squeezed his way forward.
“Not for the mont.”
Liu Sisi turned back to glance at Ironsmith Fan, and decisively picked up the knife laid before her. Aiming at her arm, avoiding the ridians and acupoints, she stabbed the knife down!
“Ah! Princess, what in the world are you doing?”
Ms. Gao let out a startled cry and rushed forward to help Liu Sisi stop the bleeding.
“Don’t move, nobody co over!”
Liu Sisi stopped everyone’s reactions and quickly picked up a bowl to catch the gushing fresh blood: “I was confused before and forgot about the dicinal strength still lingering in my body. And this dicinal strength is in my blood. Since the antidote is no longer effective for Feng’er, and too much blood has been lost rendering dicine and stones ineffective, it might be possible to save Feng’er from the brink of death with my blood!”
She rembered that Young Master Wuxin had once said that her body had long beco immune to all poisons, which included the inability to be cured by any dicine. This so-called immunity to all poisons naturally didn’t an that she feared no poisons; it also implied that at least her blood could neutralize most poisons!
Giving her fresh blood to Feng’er, might there actually be a glimr of hope?
Everyone exchanged looks, clearly not expecting Liu Sisi to resort to this asure.
At that ti, people still firmly believed that blood was the foundation of vital energy and spirit, inherited from one’s parents.
Liu Sisi, with the status of a princess, was willing to cut her wrists and let blood to save Xiao Feng. This act of friendship imdiately changed the expressions of everyone present.
Even Xiao Feng’s sister-in-law’s face was filled with emotion!
It didn’t take long for Liu Sisi to catch a large half bowl of blood and she hurriedly instructed Di Cheng who was beside her.
“Don’t be stunned, quickly feed her the blood. If it’s later, I’m afraid it’ll really be too late!”
Di Cheng finally ca back to his senses, looking at Liu Sisi with eyes full of gratitude. He wanted to say sothing, but ultimately said nothing. He bent down to prop up Xiao Feng, forcibly opened her clenched teeth, and fed her the large half-bowl of fresh blood.
Facing the bandages Ms. Gao brought over to dress the wound, Liu Sisi, still apprehensive, refused them and let another half bowl of blood. Her face beca as pale as a sheet of white paper, comparable to Xiao Feng’s pallor at the head of the bed.
“Feed this blood to Feng’er as well…”
She staggered and collapsed onto the floor but was fortunately caught by people beside her.
“Quick, quick, help the princess to lie down on the bed!”
There was, of course, no bed in this inner room, so the people hurriedly escorted her to lie down in the adjacent room. By then, Liu Sisi had already beco extrely tired and sleepy due to excessive blood loss and fell unconscious.
In a daze, it seed like many people were running around her: “Hurry! Go and call the doctor! And quickly notify the Old Master Marquis… Go now!”
Liu Sisi wanted to say sothing, but ultimately couldn’t utter a word and plunged into darkness.
It was pitch-black all around her, and Liu Sisi didn’t know how long she’d slept. People were always coming and going by her side, and it seed as though countless bitter dicines, as if costless, were being poured into her mouth.
She struggled with all her might but was always overwheld by the heavy drowsiness and eventually fell into a deep sleep.
The sun quietly rose from the east, then silently set in the west, and days passed in this repeated cycle.
Suddenly, the clear sound of a flute roused Liu Sisi from her sleep.
She blinked several tis and struggled to open her eyelids that felt as if they weighed a thousand pounds.
It was Xuan’er’s flute!
Xuan’er liked to play the flute, and Thirteen always enjoyed listening to Xuan’er play. Could it be that Xuan’er was playing the flute for Thirteen? But wasn’t Thirteen still in the hotown? How could she possibly appear here?
And, the windows here were wide open, revealing the cherry blossoms outside the window in full bloom, stunningly beautiful and overwhelming.
Where was this?
As she wondered, the door curtain was lifted, and Xue Yi ca in holding a bowl of soup dicine. Upon seeing Liu Sisi’s eyes, she imdiately exclaid with joy, “She’s awake, she’s awake! The princess has co to! Go, notify the Old Master Marquis quick!”
Imdiately, a flurry of footsteps erupted outside, quickly heading to where she was now.
Shortly after, the door curtain was lifted again, and Di Yelei’s familiar figure appeared in Liu Sisi’s field of vision.
