Chapter 937: Seems Like I Missed Something!

Master Wang as they retreated backward.Wang Yuanwai's face turned as pale as death. He tried to speak, but blood gushed from his mouth!Crimson blood, splattered on the bluestone steps, glinted in the..."Audacious!" The third princess was startled and immediately rebuked.

She had been outsmarting and outfighting the Empress Dowager for so long, she subconsciously assumed it was her doing mischief again.

But Jia Yin saw Feng Gonggong following the crowd.

Mr. Feng arrived in a sweat, clearly having rushed over here.

She quickly asked, "Master Feng, why have you brought people here Is something wrong"

Feng Gonggong panted like bellows, struggling to steady himself before replying, "Princess, County Lord, don't worry! Something happened in the palace. The Emperor is worried about you, it's not that he's blaming anything."

Is something happening in the palace

Both Princess Three and Jia Yin frowned, even more concerned.

At this time, the imperial physician had already knelt down, ready to take the pulse of the Third Princess.

Feng Gonggong saw that the third princess was getting impatient, so he quickly explained things clearly, fearing that if this temper flared up, she would ignore him and give him a beating.

"Your Highness, Lady Jun Zhu, after the two of you visited Shou Kang Palace, several elderly ladies who you met there fell ill upon returning. After being examined by the physician, they were diagnosed with a strange and inexplicable illness!" Let me know if you need anything else translated!

The Empress Dowager has already fainted, and the Shou Kang Palace has been surrounded.

"The Emperor is concerned for your safety and has specially instructed this old slave to bring people here. These imperial physicians and palace maidservants, along with this old slave, will remain in Zhilan Palace to protect you until the danger of rootless wind disease passes."

Rootless Wind

Jia Yin and the Third Princess gasped, especially the Third Princess whose face had turned as white as paper.

Manpower is sometimes limited.

This phrase, in Tiān Wǔ, is applied medically as the two characters "wūrén fēng."

This ailment also appeared without warning, and no physician could withstand it.

Like the cold wind wandering across Tianwu's land, it occasionally appears in a small village or the backyard of a wealthy household.

Each occurrence inevitably takes dozens of lives, it develops rapidly and its death is terrible, leaving people no chance to respond.

It is said that when Dr. Zhang was young, he also wanted to figure out the prescription for rootless wind, but unfortunately, he never came across it.

Jiayin had heard her grandfather say this more than once, and now, she was encountering it right beside her.

The third princess wanted to speak, but her teeth were chattering.

Still, Jia Yin pondered carefully. Although they had met several elderly ladies, since returning to Zhilan Palace for so long, there hadn't been any abnormalities.

Even the most sensitive little fox wouldn't have warned them, so there shouldn't be any danger.

In other words, this matter involves Shou Kang Palace and the Empress Dowager, perhaps there is some conspiracy.

To disrupt one's own ranks is to make it easy for others.

Thinking this way, she comforted the third princess.

After taking their pulses, it turned out that they were all healthy.

Master Feng and the imperial physicians all let out a sigh of relief, but they did not dare to be careless. They shouted at the palace maids and eunuchs to replace all bedding and belongings with new ones, thoroughly cleaning and disinfecting the old items.

The palace maids and eunuchs were both those who originally served in Zhilan Palace and those who followed Eunuch Feng.

But no matter what its origin, it's a bit flustered now, buzzing around like a fly without a head.

They didn't accomplish much work and almost ended up fighting.

Jia Yin couldn't stand it anymore. She was also worried that there might be outsiders among these people, who could take advantage of the chaos to do something bad.

Then, she went to the three princesses and got tokens from them. She also called for the personal maidservants of the three princesses and had them join her in the main hall. They quickly began distributing the tokens.

The palace maids and eunuchs, now having a leader, quickly fell silent.

Cleaning, tidying the house, heating a large pot of medicinal soup, busy but not flustered.

The Third Princess, being of royal blood, could be afraid when facing danger, but she would never back down. She also came out to sit with Jia Yin.

Within just one hour, all the hundred or so people in Zhi Lan Palace were free from worries about food and clothing. They had also drunk the preventive medicine decoction.

Feng Gonggong was overjoyed to see this.

After all, he came at the emperor's command and risked his life doing so.

If Princess Third and Jia Yin don't cooperate, if something goes wrong in the Zhi Lan Palace, he will definitely be blamed.

Of course, the imperial physicians were the happiest of all.

The Emperor valued both Princess Three and Lady Kangle dearly. When he received the summons, he kowtowed and pledged his life, vowing that if anything happened to these two young ladies, he would accompany them in death.

Although Zhilan Palace was closed, the news still got out and soon reached the emperor's ears.

The Marquis had entered the palace long ago, sitting beside the Emperor with a dark face.

At this moment, hearing that the two little girls were calm and composed, both felt relieved.

The Emperor kept saying, "The Third Princess has truly grown up. With Fu Nuer by her side, I have nothing more to worry about."

The Marquis was still worried, misfortune wouldn't stop just because the child was well-behaved.

But it is evident that this matter has not yet reached a point of no return.

He carefully felt the note handed to him by Zhi Lan Palace, and said, "Your Majesty, you really need to be careful of that person. He might resort to desperate measures or make a feint."

The Emperor nodded and replied in a low voice, "That girl, Fu Nier, could think of it, so I naturally wouldn't be easily deceived. Assign the dark guards to you and have them keep an eye on Shoukang Palace. See what else that person has up their sleeve."

"Before, she pretended to be bullied by the two maids, showing weakness to me, but I never underestimated her."

The marquis received the order, rose to leave, but was still a little uneasy. He urged, "Your Majesty, please pay more attention to Zhi Lan Palace."

"Don't worry, I won't let your daughter be wronged!" The emperor chuckled and replied, "My own beloved daughter is also inside. The palace lockdown is to protect them."

The Lord, having performed his courtesy, strode away.

As night deepened, due to the imperial lockdown, although lanterns hung along the eaves of Zhi Lan Palace, it still seemed rather desolate.

The palace maids and eunuchs at night, wished they could carry their legs to walk, glancing back from time to time, afraid that something dirty was following behind them, ready to make them ill at any moment.

There was a timid eunuch who, because the wind blew a leaf onto his head, screamed in fright.

The result proved it was a misunderstanding, and the entire Zhi Lan Palace was frightened like an iron pot filled with boiling water.

The Third Princess spoke up herself, giving the little eunuch a beating. Everyone huddled even deeper inside the house, afraid to come out.

Jiayin accompanied the Third Princess as she ate snacks and played cards, coaxing her to sleep. Only then did Jiayin return to her own room.

Mu Xu didn't care that Shui Ling and Shui Yun were still there, he peered out the window and said to Jia Yin, "The Lord has already known your worries and arranged for people."

"Master and Madam Eldest, they also sent messages, so that everyone can rest assured."

Jia Yin finally let out a long sigh of relief, beckoned Mu Xu to sit down, and used a small stove to cook him some congee to fill his stomach.

In fact, since the situation had occurred, she was confident in her medical skills and didn't feel it was dangerous at all.

But when her family members are not around, she is easily taken advantage of by outsiders. Worried about her safety, they might do something wrong.

Luckily, Mu Xu was by his side to help him resolve these worries.

A tiny charcoal stove, a purplish-red clay pot, bubbling away. The aroma of meat porridge soon filled the entire house.

Mu Xu sat by the hearth, watching Jia Yin help him pour porridge into his bowl, her sleeves of peach-colored robe swaying gently. It seemed as if the warmth of the porridge reached his heart before it even touched his stomach.

Jiayin's hands were busy, but her heart wasn't at ease. She always felt like she had overlooked something...

In the Imperial College, where talents from all over the country gathered, the lights were shining brightly. Students were either scribbling furiously or cooking porridge to fill their stomachs, all striving hard for a better future...

I need to explain why there have been fewer updates recently. Before December, the updates were still going well. The main reason is that in mid-to-late December, my parents and child fell ill one after another, so I've been taking care of them. During that time, I really couldn't keep up with the updates.

Later, I also fell ill, and the symptoms at home were the most severe! At first, I had a high fever for several days, going to the hospital every day for IV fluids. Later, on New Year's Day, my blood oxygen was low, and I was directly groggy, only able to breathe oxygen. I spent the night in the hospital. That was why I stopped posting regularly and why I've only been posting once a while recently.

Even now, Huahua is still coughing her lungs out and continues to be hospitalized. I hope she doesn't develop pulmonary fibrosis.

After the reopening, everyone could see that this illness affects people differently. Hahua might be one of the worst affected, her symptoms are getting more severe. She's really trying hard to keep updating, and even now, she's doing her best to maintain daily updates. We can only hope that all the fans will understand and be patient.

The previous unfinished chapter will be made up as soon as my health improves, but Huahua, who was hit hard by the virus last year, doesn't dare to make any big promises. But Huahua will keep writing and working hard to give Li Jia, Fu Niuer, and Baozi a perfect ending.

I hope all of you are healthy and have a happy Spring Festival!eople are waiting to watch.He was right. As soon as he arrived at his own shop in Los Angeles, Mr. Peng's book boy was already waiting."Lord Ba, you've arrived! Our master said that someone delivered...
