Chapter 52: The Child

"Lead the way."

"yes."

The palace maid got up from the ground and was busy leading the way.

The palace maid took Ye Yun back and forth between the path and the red corridor. The further down they went, the colder they felt.

Ye Yun was wary, she stopped and said calmly: "How long do we have to go?"

The palace maid folded her hands and bent down and said: "Back to the eldest princess, hurry up, just turn this corner."

"Let's go." As he spoke, a dagger quietly fell into Ye Yun's hand, just in case it was needed.

After all, the palace maid did not tell lies. She turned around from the small road and saw a palace wall in the distance. There was a small door on the side of the palace wall. The palace maid led Ye Yun through the small door. What they saw was a long-abandoned palace.

There is only one room in the courtyard. At this time, the candlelight in the room flickers on and off, which looks a bit strange.

"Where is this?" Ye Yun asked.

"Back to the eldest princess, this is the side courtyard next to the Leng Palace. The slaves are the palace maids responsible for cleaning the roads. They live here on weekdays." The palace maid explained as she led Ye Yun into the house.

The house was extremely simple. In addition to a table and a few wooden stools, there was only one bed. At this time, there was a half-year-old child lying on the bed. When Ye Yun walked in and took a closer look, he realized that the child was the one who had been enjoying the food last time.

The child Hua Yan met who was framed as a thief!

"What's wrong with him?" Ye Yun couldn't help but asked with concern when he saw the child's eyes closed and his cheeks filled with abnormal blush.

"Back to the eldest princess, the sixth prince has been in a comatose state since he contracted the cold the night before yesterday. The servant once asked someone to go outside the palace to buy anti-cold medicine for the sixth prince to take. Unexpectedly, the sixth prince not only did not wake up, but became even more seriously ill.

Later, the slave tried to go to the imperial study to find the emperor, but the slave was kicked out by the imperial army without even touching the threshold of the imperial study. The slave really had no choice, so he thought of taking advantage of the opportunity of the eldest princess to attend the palace banquet.

I beg the eldest princess to save the sixth prince’s life!”

Ye Yun sat by the bed and reached out to touch the child's forehead. The temperature was frighteningly high. At this moment, she did not care to continue questioning the palace maid to determine the authenticity of the matter. It was urgent to save her life.

She quickly took off the jade pendant tied around her waist and handed it to the palace maid: "Take my jade pendant and go to the imperial hospital to find an imperial physician named Qiu Yuebai and ask him to come and see you immediately."

"Yes, slave, go right now!"

After the palace maid left, Ye Yun originally wanted to find a jar of wine to wipe the child's body, but she rummaged through the entire courtyard and never saw an empty wine jar, let alone wine. In desperation, Ye Yun could only go back to the house again.

Go to the bedside, watch over the child on the bed, and silently pray that Qiu Yuebai can come over quickly.

In the hospital,

Qiu Yuebai, who had been busy all day, had just put away the prescriptions on the table, and was picking up the medicine box to go back home to spend the holiday with his family, when a panicked figure barged in.

"May I ask, sir, where is Imperial Physician Qiu Yue Bai Qiu?" The palace maid looked at Qiu Yue Bai anxiously with a blood-stained face.

Qiu Yuebai held the medicine box with his hand and said, "I am Qiu Yuebai, which palace maid are you from? What happened to come so late?"

The palace maid hurriedly handed the jade pendant in her hand to the front and said: "On the orders of the eldest princess, I specially ask Dr. Qiu to come and save my life!"

"Eldest Princess?" Qiu Yue's face turned pale and hesitantly asked, "What evidence do you have?"

"This jade pendant was given to me by the eldest princess herself. Please ask Imperial Physician Qiu to take a look at it." As she spoke, the palace maid handed the jade pendant forward.

Taking the jade pendant dubiously, Qiu Yuebai checked it repeatedly and after confirming that it was indeed Ye Yun's, he said: "Where is the eldest princess? Take me there quickly."

"Doctor Qiu, please come this way!" The palace maid cried with joy and was busy leading the way.

After two sticks of incense, the palace maid brought Qiu Yuebai to the side courtyard. On the way here, Qiu Yuebai was still doubting the authenticity of the palace maid's words. When she saw Ye Yun, Qiu Yuebai breathed a sigh of relief.

"The lower official has met the eldest princess."

"Physician Qiu, come and see how this child is doing." As he said this, Ye Yun stood up from the bed and made room for Qiu Yuebai to see him.

"Yes." Qiu Yuebai put the medicine box aside and immediately stepped forward to check for pulse.

After a while, Qiu Yuebai stood up, took a few steps back and cupped her hands at Ye Yun and said, "Princess, this child has evil spirits entering his body. He can just take a few anti-cold medicines and he will be fine."

"The child has taken this medicine before, but it has no effect." Ye Yun said.

"That's because the cold and cold place here is not suitable for patients to recuperate, so the disease relapses and fails to take effect. In addition, the child has been hungry for a long time and his body is weaker than ordinary children. Even if the wind-cold disease is cured, he still needs to eat more and take supplements.

Only with food can you nourish your body." Qiu Yuebai explained.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you Imperial Physician Qiu for your help today. This is my private matter. I hope Imperial Physician Qiu can keep it secret."

"Yes, I understand." After saying this, Qiu Yuebai walked to the table, opened the medicine box, took out a pen and paper, wrote down a prescription, and handed it to Ye Yun: "Elder Princess, take the medicine according to the prescription, and you will be cured in five days."

Ye Yun handed the prescription to the palace maid and said, "You will go get the medicine with Imperial Physician Qiu later."

"Yes, eldest princess."

"If the eldest princess has nothing else to do, I will retire now." Qiu Yuebai bowed her hands to Ye Yun, then went to the table to pick up the medicine box, and was about to go out when she remembered that the jade pendant was still on her body.

Then he turned back and said, "Eldest Princess, your jade pendant."

Ye Yun looked at the jade pendant in Qiu Yuebai's hand and said: "Mr. Qiu has helped me many times. This jade pendant should be regarded as a token between me and Dr. Qiu. If Dr. Qiu is useful to me in the future,

So I sent someone with a jade pendant to come to the princess's house to look for me, and I will do my best."

As Ye Yun, making such a heavy promise shows how important this jade pendant is!

Qiu Yuebai held the jade pendant tightly in her hands, bowed deeply to Ye Yun, then turned and left.

After everyone left, Ye Yun looked at the child on the bed again, turned around and left the side courtyard.

At the banquet, while Fu Qimo was chatting with Fu Qiheng and Ji Zizhen, he turned his head from time to time to look at the seat on the right that had been vacant for a long time, and he couldn't help but feel sullen in his heart.

Fu Qiheng saw his strange expression and couldn't help but asked curiously: "Qi Mo, what's wrong with you?"

Fu Qimo came back to his senses and said in a dull tone: "Nothing."

"Huh? Really? I see you have been staring at the ladies' table absentmindedly for a long time. Are you looking for a girl from some house?" Ji Zizhen said jokingly while holding a wine glass.

"Is what Zizhen said true?" Fu Qimo looked at his younger brother and said, "Recently, my father just went to the Qingguo Palace to return the Geng Tie. If you really have any ideas, you should wait until you come out of the Princess's Palace before making any plans.

, Otherwise, there will still be no good results."

Hearing this, Fu Qimo's face darkened. He grabbed the wine bottle and poured himself a glass of wine. He was about to pick up the wine glass and take a sip when a palace maid bumped his elbow. In an instant, the wine spilled all over the table.

"Young master, please forgive me, but this servant deserves to die!" The palace maid was so frightened that she knelt down and confessed.

Fu Qimo glanced at the mess on the table and added another glass of wine for himself.

Ji Zi on the side saw that Fu Qimo was completely ignoring him, so he opened his mouth and said, "Nothing, just clean up."
