Eunuch Huang naturally wanted him to leave sooner, and his mouth was even pretending to persuade, “You’d better rest a little longer.”
Duke Ding waved his hand, “I’m fine.”
Fortunately, he held onto the bed so that he would not fall back again.
“Aigoo, you can’t do that.”
Eunuch Huang was happy in his heart, but his face was indeed filled with worry. Duke Ding was really old, he couldn’t bear such a little blow.
Duke Ding slowed down, waited for the bout to pass, and extended his hand towards Eunuch Huang, “Please help me, Eunuch Huang.”
“Will you be able to do that?”
His mouth asked, but his body leaned over, half of Eunuch Ding’s body was resting on him, and Eunuch Huang was struggling to support him, not even noticing anything different about Eunuch Ding.
When he reached the corner door, the eunuch was helped out by the eunuch who was watching the door, and Eunuch Huang almost collapsed on the floor.
It was a cold day, but he was so tired that he was sweating.
But it was worth it, for the Emperor would have been very happy to know that Eunuch Ding looked like this.
Thinking of this, Eunuch Huang casually wiped a handful of sweat and trotted off to the Hall of the Nurtured Heart.
After Eunuch Huang helped Duke Ding to leave, Song Yin came out of the house and went to the entrance of the Fourth Prince’s palace, standing silently in front of it.
The minds of the eunuch doctors were all on the Fourth Prince in the palace, no one noticed him, or if they did, no one knew he had changed.
……
It was dark.
The Imperial Doctors went back to their temporary quarters and Sun Qi told the Praetorian Guards to take their shifts off, leaving only six Praetorians and him at the palace gate.
Song Wangyue came out of the house and disinfected all parts of the courtyard together with Yuzheng, Song Wangyue on one side and Yuzheng on the other.
As she walked to the palace gate, a note bounced in and landed at her feet. Song Wangyue bent down to pick it up with an unchanged expression, turned slightly sideways to open it, and instantly glanced outwards.
Four eyes met, and she made a gesture of nothing.
Song Yin’s heart that had been worried for two days fell back, nothing was fine, nothing was fine.
“Miss Song.” Dean Zheng finished his side and came over to help Song Wan Yue.
He was still in the excitement of the Fourth Prince waking up, and after he had done that he had to properly consult Song Wangyue about the prescription for smallpox.
Song Wangyue withdrew her eyes, tucked the note into her sleeve, and continued disinfecting as if nothing had happened.
After the disinfection, she went back to the house to change her clothes and take isolation measures, and just after she came out, the courtyard was already waiting at the door.
“Miss Song, can you give me a careful explanation of the formula for treating smallpox?”
He knew all the herbs used and the medicine was boiled by him personally, but a few of the herbs he didn’t know why they were used?
It was already completely dark, and lanterns were lit in the courtyard, shining on the pleading face of Yuan Zheng. Song Wan Yue did not refuse, “Go to the pharmacy.”
The courtier was overjoyed and gave way, “Please, Miss Song.”
Song Wangyue was in front and Yunchang was behind her, and the two went to the pharmacy.
As soon as they sat down, Song Wangyue said, “This prescription was actually given to me by my master.”
The courtier’s eyes lit up.
Song Wan Yue was very skilled in medicine, and they had long guessed that she must have a very powerful master, but they had never heard her say anything about it, and they were too embarrassed to ask.
“Where is he, your master? When we can get out, can I meet him?”
“Dead.”
Song Wangyue looked “gloomy”, “Killed by someone.”
Dean Zheng opened his mouth for a long time before squeezing out a sentence, “I’m sorry, I didn’t know ……”
“It’s nothing, the medicine on the prescription ……”
……
Meanwhile, a carriage slowly came towards the Xu family.
Hu Yong, who was guarding the shadows, came out with two of his men and blocked in front of the carriage, “Stand still!”
The carriage stopped and the driver looked at them warily, his eyes shining brightly.
Hu Yong was on guard and a dagger slipped from his left sleeve into his hand.
The curtain of the carriage was opened and an old man poked his head out, “A few of you ……
The words were not finished when he saw Hu Yong’s face and paused violently.
Seeing him the same, Hu Yong gripped the dagger in his hand.
“Hu Yong, why are you here?”
The old man’s excited and repressed words made Hu Yong freeze.
It had been years since anyone had called him by his name.
“I’m Gu Qian.”
Gu Qian?
Housekeeper?
Hu Yong looked straight at him.
Gu Qian reached out to tear the human skin mask off his face, then thought of something and hurriedly stopped, “I’m wearing a human skin mask, by the way, Old Yao is also here.”
Dr. Yao!
Hu Yong believed it, no one but the housekeeper dared to call Dr. Yao that.
“You, what brings you back?”
Shi Zi had fraudulently died and taken his men to the border, Hu Yong knew this, and after Shi Zi came back, he hadn’t seen anyone else except Xiao Si, thinking that Shi Zi should have left his men over there.
“Don’t ask me yet, tell me how things are going on this side of the capital?”
The young master had come back, no one was passing news over there, he and Doctor Yao knew nothing, tormented, so they simply changed their faces and came back too, originally thinking of going to the Ding Guo Gong Mansion, but afraid that the Emperor had sent someone to watch, and they would be noticed if they went, so they thought of coming to the Xu Mansion.
“It’s a long story.”
Hu Yong looked around, although it was already completely dark and there were still people on the road, so it was inconvenient to talk here.
“You are planning to enter the Xu residence?”
Gu Qian nodded, “We thought the young master should be over here with Miss Song.”
“Don’t go to the Xu House yet, I’ll send you to the South City and tell you slowly.”
The two naturally begged for it.
With Hu Yong, they went to the residence that Song Yin had arranged for them in South City.
Xiao Si was also there, and when he saw the two, his jaw dropped in shock, “You, you ……”
“We what?”
Doctor Yao did not panic, he had thought about it on the way here, they had already arrived at the capital anyway, the young master would not be able to send them back again, the big deal was to send them to the mountains behind the Thousand Hills Temple, that was better than not getting any news at the border.
“You guys are too bold, do you know that now is the most dangerous time.”
It was also fortunate that they did not go to the Ding Guo Mansion, otherwise they would really be seen by the Emperor’s people, otherwise there was no telling how serious the consequences would be.
Gu Qian glared at him, “Dare to lecture us now?”
Xiao Si rubbed his nose at the glare, he was also in a momentary rush, he couldn’t afford to mess with either of these two.
“Alright, let’s talk inside first.”
He came into the room and sat down, and Hu Yong briefly and concisely explained the situation.
He was not worried about Song Wan Yue, the two of them had treated Gu Yi for smallpox, the girl was experienced and resourceful, she would definitely protect herself from being infected. The young master, on the other hand, was still suffering in his heart, and he and old Gu could not afford to crash into him at this time.
“Since there is nothing wrong, we are relieved, we are tired after rushing for thousands of miles, prepare a room for us first so that we can ……”
“You’re still sleeping?”
Xiao Si glared, “Do you know that the young master has also entered the palace?”
“What do you mean?”
Dr. Yao, Gu Qian and Hu Yong spoke in unison.
Xiao Si was startled by the three of them and realised afterwards that he had let his mouth slip and hurriedly covered it, but it was already too late as Hu Yong grabbed him, “Say it again, where did the Shizi go?”
