A period of ti passed, and the sealed room’s door finally opened.
Shao He walked out with a worried expression, originally planning to discuss with Yun Qian whether he had a way to treat Liu Yuer’s illness.
But the result was that he couldn’t; it seed she would have to think of another solution.
"Let’s go," Shao He glanced at Qingxia and spoke indifferently. Qingxia imdiately followed suit.
Before the two had walked out of the backyard, they heard the sound of Yun Qian calling from behind them.
"Shao He, wait a mont."
Shao He turned around, and seeing the person rushing over with an ancient book in hand, she asked with confusion, "What is this?"
"Although I can’t help you with much, this ancient book records many treatnts for complicated diseases; take it and see if it can be of any help to you," Yun Qian offered the book in his hand to Shao He.
Shao He took the book with mixed emotions and thanked Yun Qian.
"If you need any help, just let know. There’s no need to be polite with ," Yun Qian said with a smile.
"Alright, I’ll co to you if I need help," Shao He said gratefully, nodding and departing Anji Hall with Qingxia.
Watching the two fading silhouettes walking away, Yun Qian sighed lightly and proceeded to the front hall to continue diagnosing and taking the pulse of the patients.
anwhile, Shao He had casually chosen a room on the second floor of an inn to sit down and opened the book in hand.
The book was indeed thick, containing as many as three to four hundred pages. Its title was "Imperial Spirit Fifteen Needles."
The book detailed a variety of unusual diseases, poisons, and antidote preparations.
Besides these, it also recorded fifteen special treatnt plans for diseases, including one that involved using silver needles to guide the flow of True Qi within the body and disperse the toxins.
But the content was so extensive that it was difficult to find the corresponding disease for Liu Yuer at the mont.
"My lord, if you do not wish to take responsibility, then I shall drink a bowl of abortion dicine and rid myself of this child."
"That’s not what I an, I just..."
Hearing the familiar voice, Shao He’s hand paused, and she glanced outside.
"Crown Princess Consort, do you want to go out and take a look?" Qingxia, standing by the side, asked.
"No need."
Shao He picked up her teacup and took a sip, the bitter taste spreading in her mouth.
The quarreling outside grew louder, and Shao He rubbed her temples with a headache,
Seeing her distressed master, Qingxia asked worriedly, "Crown Princess Consort, are you alright?"
"It’s nothing."
"Are you feeling unwell, Crown Princess Consort?"
"Hmm, I’ll rest for a while."
After speaking, she put down her teacup, leaned back on the chair, and closed her eyes to rest.
Seeing this, Qingxia kept quiet and retreated to the corner to watch over her.
After a while, Shao He slowly opened her eyes, feeling her headache sowhat relieved.
"Crown Princess Consort, are you okay?" Qingxia looked at her with concern.
"I’m fine, let’s go," she said, rising to leave. Just as she reached the stairs, soone suddenly slamd into her, causing her to tumble down.
Qingxia tried to reach out, but it was too late; she could only watch in horror as Shao He rolled downwards.
"Shao He!" a roar of fury ca.
Shao He instinctively protected her head until she stopped after hitting sothing.
"Crown Princess Consort, how are you? Don’t scare , okay?"
"Crown Princess Consort, Crown Princess Consort?"
The chaotic sounds filled Shao He’s head, making her feel as if her whole body was on fire, in excruciating pain.
But why was her body in such pain?
She tried hard to open her heavy eyelids, but no matter what she did, she couldn’t and finally succumbed to the darkness.
"Shao He, Shao He! Wake up, please!"
In her confusion, it seed she heard soone calling her, but she was too tired to answer.
And she thought she heard Pei Huaian’s voice, or perhaps, was it a hallucination?
With ceaseless shouting still ringing in her ears, Shao He’s brow furrowed deeply and her head throbbed with stabbing pain, eventually falling into unconsciousness.
After so unknown ti, Shao He finally began to wake slowly. As her vision cleared, the first thing she saw was an extrely anxious face.
"Qingxia?"
"Crown Princess Consort, you’re awake? That’s wonderful, wonderful. Are you feeling unwell anywhere? I’ll go call the royal physician right away," Qingxia babbled excitedly.
Shao He shook her head weakly, "I’m fine, no need to trouble him. How long have I been asleep?"
"It’s been a whole day and night. If you hadn’t awoken, I wouldn’t have known what to do," Qingxia replied.
"A whole day and night?"
"Yes, Crown Princess Consort," Qingxia said, quickly helping Shao He to lie down in bed and tucking her in. She then urged with concern, "Crown Princess Consort, how are you feeling now? Are you hungry? Thirsty? Is there any discomfort?"
"I’m alright, don’t worry," Shao He said with a faint smile, tenderly touching the top of Qingxia’s hair.
"Then you rest, I’ll stay right here with you, not going anywhere until you wake up," Qingxia reassured.
"I’m hungry. I want to eat sothing."
"Of course, Crown Princess Consort. I’ll prepare it right away," responded Qingxia.
Qingxia that, she quickly left the room.
The maids waiting outside approached the one who ca out and asked, "Qingxia sister, is the Crown Princess Consort awake?"
"Yes, the Crown Princess Consort is alright now; go prepare so food in the kitchen," Qingxia instructed.
"Understood."
Qingxia and Xiao Tao left together. The room was suddenly silent.
Shao He, looking at the empty room, thought of the voice she heard before passing out and couldn’t help but wonder what Pei Huaian’s reaction would be if he knew.
