Chapter 503
~ SOMEONE IS MAKING TROUBLE ~
The carriage and boats carried the Imperial Physicians towards Yishui City.
The officials’ admonishments notes flew into the Palace like a snowflake In the Imperial Court.
The Emperor seemed to have made up his mind. He didn’t even glance at it as he ordered Xu Li to burn the notes.
Grand Princess Yi De asked people to bring the food and put it in front of the Emperor. “Your Majesty, please eat some food. It is more important to take care of the dragon’s body.”
The Emperor raised his eyes. He no longer had the cold and unyielding attitude when facing the officials. His tired face had traces of unease on it. “Imperial Elder Sister, is Junyue going to be okay?”
Grand Princess Yi De suppressed the worried look and looked up at the gloomy sky outside the hall. “Don’t worry. He’ll be fine, and Yao’er will also be fine as well. They are both good kids, so they will definitely return safely.”
When Yu Wang received the letter from the Capital, he could not help but raise the corners of his lips.
When the personal guard saw his expression, he relaxed slightly. “My Lord, how about Yishui City …”
“Imperial Father has already sent Imperial Physician over. They will arrive in a few days to help control the epidemic in Yishui City.” Yu Wang rubbed the gold medallion that Mu Yunyao had given him. Seeing the gold token as if they saw a monarch. Imperial Aunt felt really loved Yao’er. Fortunately, he had this gold medallion, making it more convenient for him to do things.
With the support of Yu Wang and the secret help of Servant Qin, a camp was built halfway up the mountain.
Food and medicine herbs were being sent up the mountain one after another. News from the outside also continued to come.
Yue Wang leaned against the table, holding the letter in his hand. After reading it, the space between Yue Wang’s eyebrows relaxed slightly, revealing a hint of joy. “Yao’er, Imperial Father sent all of the Imperial Physicians from the imperial hospital over to help stabilize the epidemic in Yishui City.”
Mu Yunyao placed the medicine bowl beside Yue Wang and was very happy when she heard this. “It seems that the Emperor wants to protect Yishui City.”
With Jin Wang around, the officials in the Imperial Court would definitely try their best to persuade the Emperor to forbid Yanshui City from becoming the second Yucheng City. Fortunately, it did not go as planned. Otherwise, they would have to find a way to escape right now, and there would be no time to recuperate.
“The letter said that the prescription you gave has been of great help. Once the plague abates, Imperial Father will definitely heavily reward you.”Mu Yunyao had given the prescription to Yu Wang and stealthily sent it into the Capital through his hands. She was doing this so that the Emperor could measure it more when he made up his mind.
As the ruler of a nation, Imperial Father ordered Yucheng City gates to be closed, trapping all the citizens within. He looked calm and collected, but his heart must have been in extreme pain. Now that Imperial Father had the chance to suppress the outbreak, no matter what the considerations were, Imperial Father would try to find a way to keep Yishui City. Because once Imperial Father succeeded, the prestige of the Imperial Court would be remarkably boosted. But if they failed, the consequences would be the same as destroying Yishui City.
Mu Yunyao recalled the medicinal formula’s origins, and a faint look of nostalgia flashed in her eyes. “This formula came from the hands of a woman who has extraordinary medical skills. Thus, I don’t dare to claim credit for it.”
This prescription was developed by the poisonous lady. Later, when she taught her medical skills, she gave her the formula and asked her to give it to Jin Wang to take credit. It was a pity that the Jin Emperor gave her away before she could give him the formula. Now when she thinks about it, she is very fortunate. The time came for the poisonous lady to appear closer and closer. If she knew that her prescription had been seized by someone else, would she take the initiative to look for her? That person’s character was the one that couldn’t stand to be taken advantage of the most.
“What is Yao’er thinking?” There was nostalgia on her face, and the smile on her face was exceptionally gentle. It was as if she was missing someone.
“I’m thinking of a friend. Who knows, she might come to find me soon. I’ll introduce you to her then.” Mu Yunyao did not intentionally avoid him. She had already revealed many different things in front of Yue Wang. Yue Wang’s unquestioning attitude made her guard relax a little bit.
Now that they had promised each other, it’s okay to say more.
“Alright.”
After the camp was built, more and more refugees rushed over. Mu Yunyao did not refuse anyone who came. No matter who it was, they would be accepted and settled in. It was just that before entering the camp, they had to go through a doctor’s pulse examination. If they found out they had an epidemic, they needed to live in a separate isolated tent.
Many of the victims found that they needed to be isolated, resist, and even want to turn around and flee.
Mu Yunyao had long since been given the death order. Anyone who entered this campsite wouldn’t be able to leave without permission once they entered, and anyone who didn’t listen to her order would be killed on the spot! Fortunately, there has been no one who insists on leaving until now.
Mu Yunyao looked at the medicine bowl on the table and reminded Yue Wang, “Fourth Master, the medicine has cooled down enough. You can drink now.”
Yue Wang turned his head and stared at the medicine bowl before taking a big gulp. After that, his entire forehead unconsciously creased.
Mu Yunyao chuckled and took out a candied fruit before raising her hand and stuffing it into his mouth.
Mu Yunyao chuckled and took out a candied fruit before raising her hand and stuffing it into his mouth.
After getting along with Yue Wang for the past few days, she discovered that Yue Wang had a lot of little habits. For example, he didn’t like drinking decoctions, so although he wouldn’t show it, he would always stare at it for a while before drinking it, as if that was how he could stop drinking the medicine bowl. For example, although Yue Wang had a cold personality, Yue Wang was exceptionally shy. When he was sheepish, his expression would be meaner than usual. However, his ears would become red.
Get along with him more every day, and love him more deeply. She had never experienced this kind of relationship before, but she felt that it was incomparably sweet and beautiful.
With the candied fruit in his mouth, Yue Wang raised his eyes to look at Mu Yunyao’s smiling face. The tip of his ears had indeed turned red, and the warmth in his eyes gradually melted, transforming into a deep and shallow whirlpool that seemed to be able to pull a person’s mind in.
Mu Yunyao suddenly wanted to reach out and touch his eyes to see if she could extract a star from them. Before her fingertips touched his eyelashes, Si Qin’s voice suddenly rang out outside the tent, “Wang Ye, Princess, someone’s causing a ruckus outside.”
Mu Yunyao abruptly regained her senses and hurriedly retracted her movements. “Fourth Master, rest a well. I’ll take my people to take a look.”
“I’ll go with you.” After recuperating for the past few days, his body had already recovered for the most part.
Mu Yunyao saw Yue Wang could stand up and move quickly without reluctance, so she nodded her head in agreement.
The outskirts of the camp were noisy. Because it was located halfway up the mountain, there weren’t many flat areas where tents could be built. Thus, the campsite gradually extended towards the foot of the hill, and the further you went, the closer you got to the inner of Yishui City.
At this time, a man was detained on the ground, still shouting non-stop: “Let me leave, I want to leave … … Let me go....”
When the guards saw Yue Wang and Mu Yunyao walk over, they immediately bowed and greeted, “Greetings, Your Royal Highness Yue Wang. Greetings, Princess Wenxian.”
Their identities had already spread throughout the camp, so many victims were willing to listen to the arrangements. Even though they were in isolation, they have not resisted desperately. With a prince and princess overseeing the camp, their lives were much more protected.
