C53 (1/2)
”Qin Feng”, who had caught up to him, saw that Qin Feng had fainted on the ground and immediately carried him to the front to meet up with the Fifth Prince.
After waiting for a long time, Fifth Prince finally saw Xuanyuan Zhiling's figure.
Seeing Qin Feng in Xuanyuan Zhiling's embrace, the Fifth Prince was shocked and asked anxiously: ”Fourth Sister, what happened to you?”
Xuanyuan Zhiling shook his head, he did not know the reason either.
Fifth Prince assisted Xuanyuan Zhiling in bringing the unconscious Qin Feng back to her residence.
When the carriage stopped, Xuanyuan Zhiling picked up Qin Feng and rushed into the room.
Leaving behind a group of confused servants, Uncle Zhang boldly asked the Fifth Prince that had just arrived: ”Fifth Prince, what happened to the wangfei?”
Sighing, he said, ”Uncle Zhang, if there's an emergency and you need to take my medallion to the imperial physician, remember to be quick!”
He took out his command medallion from his bosom and handed it to Uncle Zhang before hurriedly chasing after him.
At the door of Qin Feng's room, Fifth Prince saw the decadent Xuanyuan Zhiling pulling Qin Feng's hand, and burying her head deeply beside the bed.
She was his fourth sister-in-law. With Fourth Brother here, nothing would happen to her. Fifth Prince kept reminding himself in his heart.
Even though he was worried about Qin Feng and wanted to know how she was doing, he still took a few steps back and left the Duke Palace.
After a while, Imperial Physician Wen hurried over, causing Xuanyuan Zhiling to be chased out of the room.
Inside the room, Imperial Physician Wen was sweating profusely. This disease was very similar to the one in Crown Prince's Wife, so what should he do?
Xuanyuan Zhiling impatiently waited and used his leg to kick the door open. He saw Imperial Physician Wen's anxious face, ”Doctor Wen, what's wrong with her?”
Imperial Physician Wen shook his head and sighed as he spoke. ”This disease is quite similar to the one in the Crown Prince's Wife. I'll first write out a prescription to see if I can control it.”
With that, Imperial Physician Wen quickly wrote a pill and left in a hurry.
The butler, Uncle Zhang, took the prescription and instructed everyone to boil it before leaving the room.
A carrier pigeon stopped in front of Qin Wu's window and retrieved the envelope. Qin Wu opened it and saw that it was the prescription.
Returning to the dressing table, Qin Wu looked at herself in the mirror and smiled strangely, waiting for Xuanyuan Linhe's return.
Once the door was pushed open, Qin Wu then affectionately went forward to welcome Xuanyuan Linhe and asked: ”How was it? Is the plague under control? ”
Xuanyuan Linhe tiredly nodded his head: ”I wonder where Xuanyuan Zhiling got this antidote from, which managed to cure the plague.”
Qin Wu's face was filled with pride, she hid the prescription under her sleeve and said, ”Weren't you the one who investigated it together with Fourth King? Did Fourth King not tell you about the progress? ”
Hearing Qin Wu's words, Xuanyuan Linhe came over and asked the emperor to investigate together with him, but he was never told about Xuanyuan Zhiling's progress.
Holding the teacup tightly, Xuanyuan Linhe suddenly stood up and fiercely threw the cup on the ground.
With a bang, the white teacup broke into pieces.
Seeing Xuanyuan Linhe being so angry, Qin Wu stepped forward and said, ”How about this, tomorrow morning at court, you tell me if the plague is cured, and I will secretly look for the antidote's formula.”
Xuanyuan Linhe looked at Qin Wu in shock: ”What did you say?”
Qin Wu added fuel to the fire: ”Fourth King's case has clearly progressed, but I didn't tell you, he basically wants to take credit for himself.”
Xuanyuan Linhe nodded his head, showing his agreement
Seeing that Xuanyuan Linhe had started to become interested, Qin Wu continued to speak, ”Since Fourth King does not care about your feelings, then why should I care about you, Crown Prince?”
Xuanyuan Linhe clenched his fist and closed his eyes, struggling in his heart.
Qin Feng who had a parched mouth and a stinging throat got up to go searching for water, but the moment she made a move, he discovered that Xuanyuan Zhiling was tightly caressing her hands, lying on the side of the bed, sleeping by his side.
Suppressing the pain in his throat, he laid down again and looked at Xuanyuan Zhiling who was sleeping soundly.
Before she could carefully look, Xuanyuan Zhiling's eyes opened. Seeing that Qin Feng had woken up, Xuanyuan Zhiling asked softly: How do you feel?
Qin Feng pointed to the water bottle on the table, and said with a hoarse voice: ”Water.”
Xuanyuan Zhiling turned around and poured a cup of water, helped Qin Feng up, and carefully fed him water.
Leaning on Xuanyuan Zhiling's body, he had an indescribable feeling of security. Should this be the security of the legends?
Knock. Knock. Knock.
Someone knocked on the door, the sound of the door and the words ”Your Highness, it should be morning” drifted into Qin Feng's ears.
Pushing Xuanyuan Zhiling, indicated that he should go, but Xuanyuan Zhiling shook his head and insisted on staying by his side.
Xuanyuan Zhiling got up and opened the door, and saw Fifth Prince who was about to knock.
He saw Xuanyuan Zhiling's face brimming with anger so early in the morning: ”Fourth Brother, why are you so angry this early in the morning?”
He stuck his head out and saw a green figure at the end of the corridor. The figure had disappeared around the corner.
”You should go earlier today, cover for me,” Xuanyuan Zhiling ordered Fifth Prince.
Fifth Prince nodded, and asked Qin Feng about his condition: ”Since she has woken up, I do not know anything about his condition.”
Through the gap, Fifth Prince saw Qin Feng leaning against the bed and drinking tea leisurely. Her worries that she had spent the entire night were finally relieved.
Nodding his head, Fifth Prince patted Xuanyuan Zhiling's shoulders and turned to leave.
