With Ye Zhen's help, Ye Yiqing's wound quickly stopped bleeding. Fortunately, his arrow was not in a fatal place. It looked dangerous, but it was not life-threatening.
Ye Zhen went to boil the medicine herself. It was not until Ye Yiqing fell asleep after taking the medicine that she finally felt relieved.
Doctor Wang and other imperial doctors had already left. With Ye Zhen here, they could not intervene at all and were called by Ye Yiqing to treat the other wounded.
The sun had just risen when Zhao Yang arrived.
"I heard that your father was injured. Is he all right?" Zhao Yang looked at Ye Zhen and asked.
Ye Zhen raised her eyes and looked at her deeply. "It's scary but not dangerous. My father is fine. Thank you for your concern."
Zhao Yang … really cared about her father.
"Can I come in?" Zhao Yang asked. She knew that it was wrong of her to say such a thing, but she couldn't control her heart.
Ye Zhen moved aside to let her in. "My father has fallen asleep and hasn't woken up yet."
Zhao Yang just stood in the middle of the room and looked at Ye Yiqing. Seeing his pale face and the way he slept, he seemed to have lost his usual fierceness and looked even younger. Her heart trembled slightly, as if she could still hear him whispering comforting words in her ears.
"He is fine." Zhao Yang clenched her hand tightly. "I just came to take a look."
Ye Zhen looked at her. "Zhao Yang …"
"I'll go back first." Zhao Yang avoided Ye Zhen's suspicious eyes and turned to leave in a hurry. She even blamed herself in her heart for coming here. Ye Yiqing was so smart. If he woke up, maybe he would understand everything.
"Zhao Yang!" Ye Zhen followed her out and stopped her outside the door. "What do you think of my father …"
"I only care about Lord Ye for Ye Zhen's sake. Don't think too much about it." Zhao Yang interrupted Ye Zhen's words and said coldly.
Ye Zhen didn't think much about it, but when she heard Zhao Yang's eager explanation, she felt that something was amiss. But, could it be what she thought? It's impossible! It's incredible!
Zhao Yang left in a hurry and ignored Ye Zhen.
"Yao Yao …" Ye Yiqing's voice came from the room.
"Father, are you awake?" Ye Zhen's face lit up and she hurried to the bed. "How do you feel?"
Ye Yiqing nodded gently. Even in modern times, the wound would not heal so quickly. "Very good. What's the situation outside?"
"Liu Wenxue has been arrested, and the rebels he brought with him have surrendered. The emperor has ordered a reorganization and will send troops to support Quicksand City in the next few days." Ye Zhen told Ye Yiqing the news she had inquired.
"Yes, is there any news from Quicksand City?" Ye Yiqing asked in a low voice.
Ye Zhen shook her head gently, "No news yet."
"Let me see your hand," Ye Yiqing said softly to his daughter.
"Father …" Ye Zhen's heart tightened and she looked at him nervously, her hands clenched into fists.
Ye Yiqing looked at her with a smile. "You are my daughter. I can even accept you being reborn into my sister's body. What else can I not accept?"
"I'm afraid that people will think of me as a monster." Ye Zhen said, stretching out her hand. "There was a trace of a phoenix on it, but somehow it disappeared."
"Phoenix?" Ye Yiqing looked at his daughter's white, jade-like palm. Now there was nothing on it, no different from a normal person.
Ye Zhen said, "I told you that it was the jade pendant that Mo Rongzhan gave me that I was able to leave the palace and be reborn. When I woke up, there was the same phoenix mark on my palm as the jade pendant. As long as my mind flashed, a spirit spring would appear in my palm. It used to be red, but now it has become crystal clear, no different from ordinary water."
"This is a gift from heaven. You can help many people. Don't think of yourself as a monster. It's just that the world will always reject things they have not seen, so you don't need to let others know that you have such ability." Ye Yiqing held his daughter's hand.
"Father, I actually feel very lucky. With the Spiritual Spring Water, I can cure many people …" Although her Spiritual Spring Water wasn't omnipotent, it could at least strengthen some of the medicinal properties and buy some time for treatment.
Ye Yiqing nodded gently. "That's right."
"Father, don't talk. I'll cook you some porridge. You haven't eaten all day." Ye Zhen said.
"Good!"
Ye Zhen came out of the house and told the servant outside to watch carefully. Then she went to the kitchen to cook porridge for her father.
"Princess!" Xue Lin appeared outside the kitchen, sweating profusely. He lowered his voice and said, "There is an urgent message from Quicksand City. The Liu soldiers have rebelled. The leader of the Northern Dark Kingdom is Wan Ziliang. He has joined forces with the Liu soldiers to attack Young Master Ye."
"What?" Ye Zhen was shocked. "How is my brother now?"
"If Young Master Ye asks for help from the Jin Kingdom, he may be able to resist the offensive of the Northern Dark Kingdom."
Would her brother ask for help from the Jin Kingdom? Ye Zhen felt that her brother would not ask Mo Rongzhan for help unless he was in a life-and-death situation.
"Does my father already know about this?" Ye Zhen asked.
Xue Lin said, "This is from our people. Lord Ye may not know yet."
Ye Zhen nodded heavily. She was afraid that her brother would be injured on the battlefield. She did not know if the spiritual spring she gave him was still there.
"You send a letter to the emperor for me. Let him send troops to help my brother no matter what." Ye Zhen said to Xue Lin.
"Yes!"
Ye Zhen returned to the house and found Cao Yu talking to Ye Yiqing.
"… Young Master Ye is injured. The Jin Kingdom has sent troops to support him. I'm afraid it will be a few days before our reinforcements arrive in Quicksand City." Cao Yu did not notice Ye Zhen's arrival and whispered about the situation in Quicksand City.
Brother is injured? Ye Zhen's heart tightened.
"Yao Yao is here." Ye Yiqing interrupted Cao Yu, not wanting his daughter to know about Ye Chunnan's injury.
Ye Zhen smiled and nodded. "Dad, I cooked porridge for you. Have some."
"Good." Ye Yiqing sat up with Cao Yu's hand. He glanced at Ye Zhen. "Did you hear it?"
"Yes." Ye Zhen knew that Ye Yiqing was asking about her brother's injury.
Ye Yiqing said in a low voice, "Your brother will pull through."
Ye Zhen whispered, "I'm going to Quicksand City."
"No." As if he had known that Ye Zhen would say such a thing, Ye Zhen decisively denied it.
"I don't trust my brother." Ye Zhen whispered. They were the only family she had in this world. She didn't want to lose them at all.
Ye Yiqing said in a low voice, "Your brother's injury is not fatal. There are doctors in the army. You don't have to go in person."
"I must go." Ye Zhen whispered. "Dad, have some porridge."
"Xue Lin, look after her. Don't let her leave the capital." Ye Yiqing reached out and took the bowl from her hand. "You go back. I don't need you to take care of me here."
Ye Zhen put a bottle in her arms beside the pillow. "Dad, remember to drink before you go to bed every day."
Ye Yiqing looked at her gloomily.
