Fang Ru Jiang was very resolute in advising Fu Ya to go to Hundred Herb Hall. Regardless of how Fu Ya tried to avoid it, he could find a reason to force her to go. For example: "The citizens are already cursing Hundred Herb Hall for being a fake. If Imperial Daughter still does not go, the matter of our Hundred Herb Hall closing is small, but Imperial Daughter's reputation is large! Right now, only with Imperial Daughter going can the people have a pillar of support. Moreover, the situation in the South is also tense. I heard that the majority of the South has already been pushed back by Gu Shu. Right now, the people of Lan Zhou are already panicking. With His Highness the eighth prince not present, they can only rely on Imperial Daughter to support them. Imperial Daughter, stabilizing the hearts of the people is the most important matter! "
With him saying this, he reminded Feng Jin Yuan of something. That's right, stabilizing the hearts of the people was the most important matter. Also, the hearts of the people were not stabilized for them. They were stabilized for His Highness the eighth prince. If this matter could be handled well, there would be no need to worry about His Highness the eighth prince not appreciating this favor.
At present, they still had not received news that the 300 thousand troops in the South had been handed over to Xuan Tianming. In Feng Jin Yuan's heart, His Highness the eighth prince was still the master of the South. Thus he immediately agreed to allow Fu Ya to return to her room to get changed. Today, she would go with Fang Ru Jiang to Hundred Herb Hall. She definitely had to stabilize the hearts of the people.
There was nothing that Fu Ya could do. She could also understand Feng Jin Yuan's thoughts; moreover, Fang Ru Jiang had also said: "You're just going to take a look. They're all normal citizens. There's no need for Imperial Daughter to personally take action to save them."
She did not continue to think about it and quickly returned to her room to get changed. She then said a few words to Yao shi to calm her down before leaving the manor with Fang Ru Jiang. This was also the first time that she had gone out of Lan Zhou's Hundred Herb Hall.
Along the way, Fu Ya acted as though she was a thief, fearing that she would be recognized. It was completely different from when she had walked down the streets of Lan Zhou. At that time, she was afraid that others would not recognize her, and she really liked the feeling of being an imperial daughter. Now, however, she was afraid of being recognized by others, and she would be pestered about the matters of Hundred Herb Hall.
Fang Ru Jiang saw this and smiled to himself. He thought to himself that a fake was a fake. How could her temperament compare to a real imperial daughter..
Finally, the two of them arrived at the entrance of Hundred Herb Hall, which was located on the busiest street in Lan Zhou City. From afar, they could see many people lining up to see a doctor and get medicine. There were even people who kept asking, "Did the princess come today? When would the princess come? Were there any more of those pills? We all brought money to buy the pills. "
As for Fang Ru Jiang, he did not care whether or not Fu Ya was happy, as he shouted at the top of his lungs: "Everyone, make way. Imperial Daughter Ji An has arrived!"
This shout was extremely loud, and when Fu Ya heard it, her head began to swell. As for the commoners, they were like water that had just been boiled, instantly starting to boil. Everyone looked over at Fu Ya one by one. Someone recognized her and said happily, "It really is Princess Ji 'an! The princess is here. We can buy the medicine now! Our loved ones can be saved! "Everyone gathered around and happily chatted with Fu Ya.
Fu Ya felt irritated and hated that she could not kick these people away, but she still remembered what Feng Yu Heng had emphasized more than once: When outside, she had to have the bearing of an imperial daughter. Think more about how Feng Yu Heng treated the commoners in the capital. Even if she could not emulate it completely, she had to at least emulate 70% of it.
Fu Ya forcefully suppressed her anger, as a smile appeared on her face. She explained to the commoners that had surrounded her: "I truly am sorry, everyone. I never thought that I would be so unaccustomed to the South's climate. It was such that my body was weak the entire time, and it was not good for me to come here. After all, everyone has come to seek medical treatment, and the patients are all weak. It would not be good if the illness spread to everyone. " Her explanation was very reasonable. She then added: "Doctors cannot treat themselves. Moreover, it's a heat illness, and it's even harder to treat."
The commoners were able to accept this sort of explanation, but no matter how they looked at it, this imperial daughter did not look like she had been ill for a long time. Her complexion was still glowing red, and her complexion was clearly very good. But the people did not think too much about it. They just repeatedly asked: "When will there be more of those pills that Hundred Herb Hall sells! We all came to buy pills. I heard that there has never been a shortage of pills in the capital. Why is it different here? "
Fu Ya spoke without thinking: "It's because we need to get the goods from the capital, and the journey is too far. That's why there is a shortage of goods. Everyone also knows that Lan Zhou is truly too far from the capital. When I came here, I was in a bit of a rush. It's impossible for me to bring that much with me. "
Just as she said this, a young man suddenly rushed in from the crowd. Arriving at Fu Ya's side, he kneeled and repeatedly kowtowed, saying: "I beg imperial daughter to save my wife! The midwife said that it was a difficult birth. This child cannot be born, and both the mother and the child will die. I heard that imperial daughter knows how to perform a cesarean delivery. That is to cut open the woman's belly and take out the child before stitching it up. The mother and child will both be saved. I beg imperial daughter to save my wife and child! "
Fu Ya's head swelled once more. Cesarean delivery? What sort of strange method was this? But when she was in the capital, she had indeed heard that Feng Yu Heng knew how to do this. At that time, she had been given quite a fright. Who knew that someone would beg her to perform a cesarean delivery. How could she dare?
Fu Ya froze in place, not knowing what to do; however, that person continued to cry and beg: "Imperial daughter, save my wife and child! I heard that imperial daughter has helped women give birth in Hundred Herb Hall more than once in the capital! You have all used this method. I beg imperial daughter to treat the citizens of Lan Zhou the same as the citizens of the capital! "
With this accusation being placed on her head, Fu Ya was a bit dazed. If she did not save them today, did that mean that she was looking down on the citizens of Lan Zhou? But in the end, she was not Feng Yu Heng. She really wanted to save them; however, she did not know how to save them. What should she do? Feng Jin Yuan was currently not at her side, and there was not even a single person that could give her ideas. Fang Ru Jiang had already mixed in with the crowd of citizens and was saying to the citizens: "Everyone, don't worry. Imperial daughter has come. Everything will be resolved. Everyone, please be at ease."
Relax, relax my ass! Fu Ya really wanted to curse at Fang Ru Jiang. This person was truly screwing her over. For a while, all of the citizens turned their gazes toward her. It was as though they were waiting for her response. Fu Ya was at a loss on what to do; however, at this time, she suddenly heard a commotion come from behind her. Someone loudly shouted: "The general of the Southern Army has come! The general of the Southern Army has come! "
Her eyes lit up, as she subconsciously believed that it was the Eighth Prince. Because in the South, everyone knew that the Eighth Prince was the general of the Southern Army. The news of the Ninth Prince taking over had not yet spread. Ji Ling Tian also knew about it, but he feared that the three members of the Feng family would panic, thus he forcefully hid this matter. He would wait for the Eighth Prince to give the next order before making any arrangements.
Fu Ya heard this sort of shout and felt extremely happy! At that moment, she couldn't care less that the person who was begging her for help was still holding onto her skirt. She forcefully pulled her skirt away from that person's hands. Then, lifting her skirt, she turned around and ran towards the army that was almost in front of her.
But before she could run three steps, she stopped once more, as she saw that the person sitting on the horse at the front was not the eighth prince. Instead, it was the ninth prince with a purple lotus on his forehead, the evil and arrogant ninth prince, Xuan Tian Ming.
Fu Ya felt as if she had been struck by lightning all of a sudden, as if the sky had collapsed. She couldn't even stand properly, and it was only because someone beside her supported her that she didn't fall. However, her legs kept trembling.
Wasn't it said that the person was the general of the Southern Army? Why was it the Ninth Prince?
She had many questions in her heart, but the citizens beside her were already discussing, "I heard that person is the Ninth Prince. He is Dashun's god of war, the Ninth Prince!"
"Right! The Ninth Prince conquered the Northwest and helped Gu Mo ascend to the throne. He also worked with Princess Ji 'an to conquer Qian Zhou, taking all of Qian Zhou into Dashun's territory. Now that he has come to the South, does that mean that Gu Shu's army will be pushed back very quickly? "
"It's not just being pushed back. I think that the Ninth Prince will definitely attack Gu Shu's capital and take Gu Shu into Dashun's hands."
"Be quiet. Princess Ji 'an is standing to the side. She abandoned the Ninth Prince and sided with the Eighth Prince to come to the South; however, she does not know that the general in the South has already changed. Say, do you think that Princess Ji' an will run again?"
Fu Ya could not bear to continue listening, and her head buzzed. She subconsciously retreated, running in the direction of the Feng manor without any regard for anything else. Even if there were a large number of citizens calling her from behind, she did not turn around.
Xuan Tianming had appeared in the South and had appeared in Lan Zhou. This was too much of a blow to her, and it was too frightening. It was as the people had said. She had finally managed to escape the capital and hide in Lan Zhou. Why had the Ninth Prince followed her like a ghost? Could it be that he had come for her? Or could it be Feng Jin Yuan and Yao shi?
Either way, regardless of who it was, it was a disaster for the three of them. She had interacted with Feng Yu Heng for a long time. It was impossible for her to not know what sort of person the Ninth Prince was. That person only treated Feng Yu Heng and his imperial concubine mother well. He also treated the seventh prince well, but to the Ninth Prince, the others were not people! The people of the capital called him the ninth prince of hell. Now that the ninth prince of hell had come to Lan Zhou, and he had come as a general, what should they do?
Who knew how Fu Ya had managed to run back to the Feng manor, but she had run very quickly. Even her maidservant, Xiao Tao 'er, had been left behind.
She pushed open the manor's gate and did not care about the gatekeeper that had been knocked to the ground. She ran straight for Feng Jin Yuan's courtyard. Before she even entered the courtyard, she began shouting: "Father! Father, it's not good! Something big has happened! "
Ever since Feng Jin Yuan had come to the South, he had picked up his previous style of writing. When he had nothing to do, he would write some calligraphy and read some poetry. He had a very similar feeling to when he was the left prime minister. Although the matter with Hundred Herb Hall caused him to feel anxious, it was not to the point where he felt that it was too big of a problem. If there was truly no other way, he would just have Ji Ling Tian come out and find an excuse to close Hundred Herb Hall. The responsibility could be pushed onto anyone.
But now, Fu Ya's shout caused his heart to tremble. His brush became unsteady, and a large piece of calligraphy was ruined.
Very quickly, the door to the study was pushed open. Feng Jin Yuan furrowed his brow and asked her: "What exactly happened for you to be so flustered? Take a look at yourself. What sort of appearance is this? You're covered in sweat, and your makeup is smudged. Where is the aura of an imperial daughter? "
Fu Ya repeatedly shook her head. She was so tired that she could not catch her breath. With one hand on the door frame and the other on her chest, she was finally able to catch her breath. She then urgently said to Feng Jin Yuan: "Father, it's not good. The Ninth Prince has entered Lan Zhou City!"
