Chapter 171: Chapter 89 Going to Yuzhou (10) Treatnt_4
Xiao Jinxing imdiately recognized him as the servant who had just delivered the ssage.
He asked with apparent nonchalance, "Do you deliver als and fetch ssages there every day?"
"Yes. But rest assured, sir, if I leave this place, I will have soone else co to serve."
"That’s not what I ant," Xiao Jinxing said. "Tell
any news from over there imdiately."
"As you command," the servant quickly replied respectfully.
"You may leave."
"Yes." The servant left.
Xiao Jinxing, supported by Xiao Wu, lay down in the wooden tub.
Xiao Wu attended to his bath.
The water temperature was just right.
Finally, he could thoroughly wash off the dirt accumulated over the past few days, which seed to also wash away his fatigue.
Xiao Jinxing lay very comfortably in the wooden tub, enjoying himself.
"I wonder if the Princess can enjoy a bath as comfortably on her end?" Xiao Wu suddenly spoke up.
Xiao Jinxing’s expression darkened slightly.
"The Princess has suffered so much following the Prince, and she still hasn’t had a chance to rest, yet she’s gone to treat others. The Princess truly epitomizes the phrase ’won can match n,’ sothing many n cannot achieve. She selflessly disregards her own life, fearing neither hardship nor fatigue," Xiao Wu grew more passionate as he spoke, "I am moved by the Princess..."
"Enough." Xiao Jinxing said coldly, "It was her own choice."
"I understand it was the Princess’s own choice, I was just expressing that she truly is a good person, a very good person," Xiao Wu insisted firmly.
"Maybe it’s also for..." Xiao Jinxing almost spoke, but then swallowed his words.
Xiao Wu was very curious.
Xiao Jinxing did not indulge Xiao Wu’s curiosity, "Get my clothes."
"Yes, Prince," Xiao Wu had to obey.
But what did the Prince an by that?!
What else could the Princess be for?!
Xiao Jinxing of course wouldn’t tell Xiao Wu that in his view, Ye Qichi was doing it for him.
That day in the temple, Ye Qichi had made it clearer than clear.
He never doubted Ye Qichi’s feelings for him, but he was still amazed that Ye Qichi would go so far just to win his favor.
After his bath, Xiao Jinxing ate his al and lay down on the comfortable bed to sleep.
After several days of fleeing and running around, he could finally sleep on such a soft bed.
The mont he closed his eyes.
An image of Ye Qichi treating soone appeared suddenly in his mind...
Xiao Jinxing turned over.
He forced himself to think of sothing else!
...
In the afternoon.
Ye Qichi received the dicinal herbs delivered by the servant.
She passed on a note again, instructing the servant to prepare milk and eggs with every al.
She took the dicinal herbs and went into the house.
At that mont, two maidens and the doctor were dozing off due to physical exhaustion.
Ye Qichi did not disturb them; instead, she found other dicinal ingredients in the room and began to work on the dicine herself.
As she worked on the dicine, she started to feel sleepy.
Only then did Ye Qichi realize she hadn’t closed her eyes in a day and a night.
At this point, looking at the dicinal ingredients in front of her, her vision seed to blur.
She turned and looked at the critically ill people in the room, took a deep breath, got up, splashed so cold water on her face, and then returned to the room to continue working on the dicine.
Finally, she finished preparing all the ingredients.
Ye Qichi divided the powder into 10 portions, took one portion, and fed it to Pang Yuehuan.
The powder was very bitter, and Pang Yuehuan almost spat it out as soon as she swallowed it, but Ye Qichi stopped her.
Enduring the discomfort, Pang Yuehuan finally swallowed it all.
After she took it, Ye Qichi then gave it separately to the maid and the doctor as well.
All four of them took their doses respectively.
In the evening after dinner, Ye Qichi separately had them take another dose.
Considering that tomorrow, the illness should improve.
She didn’t delay and started preparing the dicine for tomorrow after everyone had fallen asleep.
She was grinding the dicine and was starting to feel sleepy.
Suddenly, she heard so noises outside the courtyard.
Ye Qichi hurriedly went out, "Is sothing the matter?"
"It’s ." From outside, ca the voice of Xiao Jinxing.
It really was unexpected.
Ye Qichi asked, "Do you need
for sothing?"
"Just checking if you were dead," Xiao Jinxing said coldly.
Xiao Wu was speechless beside them.
Right after dinner, the Prince had said he wanted to walk in the courtyard to digest, and Xiao Wu guessed that the Prince wanted to see the Princess, but he didn’t expect that upon seeing each other, they would start snapping at each other again.
"Don’t worry, I won’t die that easily," Ye Qichi replied sowhat annoyed, but didn’t want to argue with that damned Prince.
His coming to see her was a sign of his conscience awakening.
Her expectations of him were never high.
"Is there a cure for the illness?" Xiao Jinxing asked.
"Of course." Ye Qichi replied proudly, "There’s no illness I can’t cure."
Xiao Jinxing seed to laugh a bit.
Clearly a bit sarcastic.
But Xiao Wu seed to detect a hint of pride.
Was it because the Princess’s dical skills are excellent, that the Prince felt proud too?!
He really has started treating the Princess as his own.
"How long will the cure take?" Xiao Jinxing continued to ask.
"Three days," Ye Qichi said, "If nothing unexpected happens tonight, it should improve by tomorrow, and we can confirm the cure the day after. At most, for safety’s sake, observe for a week. If there’s no relapse within a week, it’s considered completely cured."
"Hmm." Xiao Jinxing responded, showing no particular happiness.
"Oh, remind Pang Nan that the dicine I prescribed is basically what I’ll be using to treat the people of Yuzhou. Tell him to prepare in advance as I’ll be using a large quantity."
"Hmm." Xiao Jinxing responded indifferently again.
"It’s getting late, you better go back and rest," Ye Qichi said, "I need to go back to grinding dicine."
"You haven’t rested?" Xiao Jinxing asked.
"No ti to rest," Ye Qichi said nonchalantly, "Enough talk, I’m going back to my work."
Then, she turned to leave.
"Ye Qichi," Xiao Jinxing called her from outside the door.
"Anything else?"
"This ti when we return, I can grant you a request."
Ye Qichi frowned.
This damned Prince is finally showing so conscience.
"However..."
"Aside from the position of Princess, everything else can be asked, right?" Ye Qichi cut off Xiao Jinxing’s words.
Xiao Jinxing pursed his lips, "Yes."
"Alright, alright, we’ll talk about it when we get back," Ye Qichi said impatiently.
She just wanted to send Xiao Jinxing back quickly so she could get back to grinding dicine and maybe catch so sleep later at night.
However, in Xiao Jinxing’s ears, it seed like Ye Qichi was unhappy.
If there were no Bai Mowan...
No, there cannot be without Bai Mowan.
Ye Qichi cannot replace Bai Mowan.
