At this moment, Xiao Tianzhen's eyelids twitched as he woke up from his slumber. His hand twitched as he felt someone taking his pulse. His gaze shifted from his mother's face to Niu Youdao's face. After staring for a while, he suddenly asked, "How long do I have left?"
Niu Youdao smiled, "You won't die!"
These words were purely comforting. Xiao Tianzhen was no longer a child. If he didn't speak, he could guess that something was wrong. It was also impossible to tell him that he didn't have long to live.
"Really?" Xiao Tianzhen asked.
Niu Youdao's relaxed tone made Hai Ruyue's eyes filled with anticipation.
Niu Youdao nodded at Xiao Tianzhen with a smile and moved his finger away from the other's pulse.
He had a smile on his face, but his heart was heavy. It was for no other reason than to sympathize with the kid on the sickbed. It was a pity that this kid had suffered so much since he was young.
He came here because of Shang Chaozong's annexation of Qingshan County, not to treat Xiao Tianzhen's illness. He knew some Chinese medicine and western medicine treatments. In his previous life, he was even more skilled than ordinary Chinese medicine practitioners. He knew some prescriptions that ordinary Chinese medicine practitioners didn't know, but he wasn't a professional in treating illnesses. His knowledge was limited.
Of course, he also hoped to solve Xiao Tianzhen's illness. That way, he would have more confidence in the future. But in reality, he couldn't even diagnose Xiao Tianzhen's illness. At least others could diagnose it as' Heavenly Yin Damaged Meridian ', but he could only find out the condition of the illness. He didn't even know the cause of the illness.
When the Gan Qi was withdrawn from Xiao Tianzhen's meridians, he noticed it. He had clearly dispelled the chill in Xiao Tianzhen's meridians and warmed up his meridians and body. But when the Gan Qi was withdrawn, the chill in Xiao Tianzhen's meridians came out of nowhere. He believed that it wouldn't be long before it invaded his whole body again.
It was a very strange illness! Niu Youdao didn't have any clues and naturally didn't have a good way to treat it.
After placing Xiao Tianzhen's hand back under the blanket, Niu Youdao got up and walked out.
Hai Ruyue immediately got up and followed. Zhu Shun quickly waved his hand to signal the servants to take care of Xiao Tianzhen.
After they walked out of the house, Zhu Shun asked, "Master, do you practice Yang-attribute cultivation methods?"
Niu Youdao plainly asked: "Why do you say so?"
Zhu Shun said, "In the past, in order to save Young Master, I once invited a person who practiced Yang-attribute cultivation. His condition during treatment was similar to Young Master's condition just now."
Niu Youdao replied with an 'oh', but did not answer whether or not he was cultivating a Yang-type cultivation technique.
The group of people returned to the hall. Hai Ruyue finally couldn't hold it in anymore and asked, "Master, what's the result of the treatment?"
Niu Youdao shook his head like a hoodlum: "Your son's illness is very strange. I can't do anything about it for the time being."
As soon as these words came out, Yuan Fang's heart palpitated, and he groaned inwardly. 'Daoye, oh, Daoye, what are you doing? You're going to kill me!'
Sure enough, Zhu Shun's face darkened as he stared coldly at Niu Youdao.
Hai Ruyue's face instantly turned cold: "Niu Youdao, you dare to fool me?"
Niu Youdao chuckled: "Princess Royal is too anxious. I only said that I can't do anything for the time being, not that I can't do anything forever. What I want to know now is, can the Scarlet Sun Fruit really cure your son? "
Hai Ruyue paused for a moment and stared at Niu Youdao, her teeth itching. She realized that this guy kept on provoking her. Would it kill him to say everything in one go? She didn't know whether she wanted to or not, but she couldn't do anything to him. It was a little uncomfortable to hold it in!
Zhu Shun, who was at the side, added: "There should be no mistake. We invited many experts to take a look, and they all said that the Scarlet Sun Fruit can cure Young Master's' Heavenly Yin Damaged Meridians'. The head of the Ten Thousand Grottoes personally came to take a look, and he also said the same thing. There should be no mistake! "
The so-called Ten Thousand Grottoes was the cultivation sect that supported the Gold State behind the scenes. It was also one of the big sects in the Country of Zhao.
Niu Youdao: "In other words, as long as I can get the Scarlet Sun Fruit for Princess Royal, my promise will be fulfilled. As for whether it can be cured or not, it has nothing to do with me, right?"
Hearing his words, it gave people a glimmer of hope!
Hai Ruyue said decisively: "That's right. As long as you can get the Scarlet Sun Fruit, you will fulfill your promise. You don't have to worry about anything else. I will immediately send troops to support Shang Chaozong!"
"This isn't something that can be explained in a few sentences. Can we sit down and talk about it?" Niu Youdao suddenly changed the topic.
Hai Ruyue wanted to spit on his face. After playing around for so long without any results, he still wants to sit down. Let's see where his head will go later!
After all, Niu Youdao killed the envoy of Yan, Song Long. Even if she killed him and said that she was acting according to the law, no one would say anything.
But in the end, she temporarily suppressed the anger in her heart and gestured for him to sit. She walked to her seat, straightened her dress and sat down.
Zhu Shun went out and called for someone to serve them tea.
Everyone's eyes were on Niu Youdao. Yuan Fang and Fang Zhe were on tenterhooks, but Niu Youdao was calm and composed. He slowly picked up his teacup and took a sip before putting it down slowly. He then asked: "Princess Royal, have you thought about the consequences of not being able to cure your son with the Scarlet Sun Fruit?"
Hai Ruyue said coldly: "This isn't something you should worry about. You just need to get me the Scarlet Sun Fruit!"
Niu Youdao calmly said: "What if the Scarlet Sun Fruit can't cure him?"
Hai Ruyue said angrily: "Are you hoping for my son to die early?"
Niu Youdao: "Princess Royal's words are too serious. I have no enmity with your son. I'm not that immoral. I'm just trying to reason things out calmly."
Hai Ruyue: "I don't need to listen to your reasoning. Are you trying to make up some flowery excuse to get away from the Scarlet Sun Fruit? I'm warning you, I've already given in to you time and time again. There's no way I'll give in again. If you can't hand it over, there's no need for the Song family to take action! "
Niu Youdao said in a deep and steady voice: "Since I've promised Princess Royal, I won't go back on my word. I said that if I can't cure your son, I'll get the Scarlet Sun Fruit. I'll fulfill my promise. I've also said that I'll solve Princess Royal's urgent problem and I'll fulfill my promise! I'll settle these two problems for Princess Royal at the same time! "
Hai Ruyue was stunned for a moment. She recalled that Niu Youdao did say that he would solve her urgent problem. But at that time, wasn't it just about her son's illness? Only now did she know that the other party was talking about two things. Moreover, he had taken on all of them, saying that he would help her solve them together. What was the other thing?
She looked at Zhu Shun, who was also confused. Zhu Shun obviously didn't know what Niu Youdao was talking about. She could only reply: "My urgent problem is my son's illness. As long as my son's illness is cured, everything will naturally be solved!"
Niu Youdao asked: "According to Princess Royal, the crux of the problem is still the Scarlet Sun Fruit, right?"
Hai Ruyue: "Isn't it?"
Niu Youdao: "Is Princess Royal sure that the Scarlet Sun Fruit can cure your son? What if there's an accident and it can't be cured? " He suddenly stood up and walked in front of Zhu Shun. He said to Zhu Shun: "I'm afraid that the Ten Thousand Heavenly Abode is going to choose someone to inherit the Gold Province. Isn't there a reason why Princess Royal is so anxious to cure the junior provincial governor? "
He turned around and walked towards Hai Ruyue. As he walked, he said: "According to what I know, after Xiao Huang passed away, Xiao Bieshan's body became weak. He was no longer suitable to manage the military affairs of the Gold Province. The Ten Thousand Heavenly Abode was afraid that there would be chaos in the Gold Province, so they had the intention to change the person in charge. Later on, they relied on Princess Royal's ability to help the Prince Consort. In addition, the Ten Thousand Heavenly Abode remembered that the Xiao family had served them for so many years. They didn't want to disappoint their subordinates, so they didn't carry out the plan."
He stood in front of Hai Ruyue and stared at her changing expression. "After Xiao Bieshan passed away, my son was young and weak. He was even weaker than Xiao Bieshan. The Ten Thousand Heavenly Abode seemed to have the intention to change the person in charge. Moreover, there were people in the Ten Thousand Heavenly Abode who wanted to replace the provincial governor. It was Princess Royal who used ruthless methods to clean up the mess."
"If there's an accident with the Scarlet Sun Fruit, without the Xiao family's name and prestige in the Gold Province, how long can Princess Royal suppress the people in the Gold Province? Don't tell me she can use ruthless methods in the Gold Province? The instability of the Gold Province is definitely not what the Ten Thousand Heavenly Abode wants to see! Moreover, without the old relationship between the Xiao family and the Ten Thousand Heavenly Abode, if they want to break it off, they will be resolute. When that time comes, where will Princess Royal go? Isn't this the most pressing concern of Princess Royal? "
After saying this, Niu Youdao returned to his seat and sat down.
This situation was also one of the things that Fang Zhe had reported to Niu Youdao after he came to the Gold Province.
His words made Hai Ruyue's heart heavy. However, she sneered and said, "You really worry too much. I am the Zhao Kingdom's Princess Royal. The current emperor is my elder brother and the current empress dowager is my biological mother. If I don't want to stay in the Gold Province, I can always return to the capital and live a carefree life."
"Then why is Princess Royal still holding on here? Why don't you give up on this place earlier and bring your son to the capital to enjoy a luxurious life?"
Niu Youdao retorted. He raised his teacup and smiled faintly. "Let's not talk about whether the Ten Thousand Heavenly Abode will allow Princess Royal to leave with the secret here. The Gold Province has maintained its military for many years and has offended many royalty and nobles in the capital! I believe that Princess Royal can return to the capital and live a carefree life. However, does Princess Royal think that it is possible for a person who has gone against the court to return to the capital alone and pretend that nothing has happened? Can the emperor encourage this trend? "
"Regarding the matter of the Gold Province, can we not interrogate the Royal Princess clearly and force her to explain everything thoroughly? This concerns the general affairs of the country. Can the Empress Dowager stop it? Princess Royal grew up in the palace. I believe that you are more familiar with some people's faces than me. Does Princess Royal dare to return? Can the capital be compared to this place where you can call the wind and summon the rain? "
Hai Ruyue was a little angered by his words. Her voice became a little sharp. "What does it have to do with you?"
Niu Youdao said calmly, "I said that I will help Princess Royal solve this pressing concern!"
Hai Ruyue's face was full of mockery. "You even need help to deal with Song Long. Don't say that you can influence the Zhao Kingdom's capital."
