Rebirth as Princess Jin again

Chapter 221 Lure the snake out of its hole

He stretched out his hands to signal the people below to be quiet, and then shouted loudly: "I know that your family members and relatives are all in this capital. Like everyone else, Gu's nine tribes are also in this capital."

"Now that the source of the epidemic has been found, the prescription for the treatment is also available. The medicinal materials were only burned. My Majesty Xia Zhaoguo has a vast territory, and I will definitely be able to bring medicinal materials from other places. Please give the court some time. Gu assures you that in the next five years, Please give us five days. After five days, I guarantee that all the medicinal materials will be in place."

At this time, an old man with white hair walked out of the crowd and said, "What guarantee can His Royal Highness give you?"

Situ Yan said confidently: "With my position as the prince, Gu guarantees that all the medicinal materials will be delivered in five days. If not, I am willing to give up the position of the prince."

The crowd began to talk, and a middle-aged man in rich clothes came out and said: "Since the prince is the guarantee, we will go back for the time being and wait quietly for five days. After five days, if the court cannot come up with medicinal materials to save our relatives, It’s not too late for us to leave the city.”

"Yeah yeah!"

"The prince is indeed responsible. Among all the princes facing such a big event, he is the only one who dares to take responsibility!"

"As expected of the crown prince, such a person can be the crown prince of our Xia Zhao Kingdom."

"With a person like this inheriting the throne, Xia Zhaoguo will definitely continue to prosper."

.........

After the crowd dispersed, Situ Yan walked down the tower proudly.

Soon an official informed Situ Lin of the matter. After hearing this, Long Yan was overjoyed and praised the prince for doing a good job, but at the same time he became worried. The prince promised that the medicinal materials would be available within five days, but now there was no medicinal material in the capital.

It also takes time to collect from nearby towns. Does the prince have any special means to obtain medicinal materials?

However, before Situ Lin could figure out the matter, he saw a father-in-law running in hurriedly, shouting in a panic: "Your Majesty, no, someone just came from Prince Jing's Mansion to deliver a message saying...saying...Prince Jing. ..”

Seeing the panic of his father-in-law, Situ Lin instantly realized that something was wrong. His face turned pale and he asked nervously: "What's wrong with the fourth child?"

The father-in-law said in a painful voice: "King Jing has contracted an epidemic."

There was a bang in Situ Lin's mind. What he was most worried about had happened. These days, the fourth child had been patrolling the areas where the epidemic occurred. Unexpectedly, he also contracted the epidemic.

At the same time that the news reached the palace, Prince Jin's Mansion also received the news, but the person who went to Prince Jin's Mansion to deliver the news was Dong'er.

Su Ying's expression changed with horror after hearing this. She stared at Dong'er and asked, "Didn't Prince Jing's Mansion always use the well water in his own backyard? How could this happen?"

Dong'er had already thought of her words and cried: "Actually, the prince has started to feel uncomfortable a few days ago, but he kept holding on until he suddenly fainted and fell to the ground yesterday. The slave didn't find out. Princess, please go and save me." My lord! I know that you are pregnant now, so I shouldn’t come to you, but you also know that all the imperial doctors are not in the palace now, so I have no choice but to come to you!"

"You haven't answered me yet, why did he get sick?" Su Ying asked loudly.

Dong'er said blankly: "I don't know, this slave. Maybe...maybe he got sick outside and came back."

Su Ying's face darkened. Situ Jing had always been in good health. Since the outbreak of the epidemic, she had made an anti-epidemic medicine package and sent it to him. She also told him to change his clothes and clean them after returning home every day. Situ Jing You will never catch an epidemic for no reason.

She suppressed her thoughts and asked, "How is King Jing doing now?"

Dong'er choked with sobs and said: "The prince is in very bad condition. He is already in a coma. I beg you, princess, please stop asking. Go to the palace to see my prince!"

Su Ying clutched the armrest of the chair without saying a word. After thinking for a long time, she said in a deep voice: "Prepare the car and go to Prince Jing's Mansion!"

Mu Lin on the side saw this and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "I will accompany you!"

Su Ying nodded and held Mu Lin's hand out of the palace.

"Drive! Drive!" A carriage was driving quickly on the wide street. Fortunately, the people had dispersed and the street was clear.

And above the restaurant in the distance, a figure stood in the shadows, staring at the carriage driving on the road. The man in the restaurant had a meaningful smile on his lips. This person was Situ Yan.

When they arrived at Prince Jing's Mansion, the concierge saw that the person who came down was Su Ying, and he quickly opened the door.

Su Ying held Mu Lin's hand and went straight to Situ Jing's residence. She followed Situ Jin to Prince Jing's Mansion several times and was very familiar with the layout of the Prince's Mansion.

Before he went in, he saw Laifu walking out of Situ Jing's room. Seeing Su Ying coming, Laifu hurriedly came over to salute.

Su Ying glanced at him and asked, "How is your prince doing?"

Laifu stood in front of Su Ying and asked Dong'er who was behind her: "Didn't the prince tell you not to go to Princess Jin? Now you don't even dare to listen to the prince? If the prince wakes up, look at him How to deal with you!"

Su Ying said hurriedly: "We will discuss the matters in your house later. Get out of the way and let me go in to see King Jing!"

Seeing her insistence, Laifu could only let Su Ying in. Dong'er wanted to follow her in, but was stopped by Laifu: "Stop, stay outside the door!"

Dong'er stamped her feet fiercely and said, "The prince is so ill. If I don't invite the princess, will I have to watch the prince fall into a coma?"

Laifu snorted coldly: "I'll settle the score with you later."

Su Ying entered the room and saw Situ Jing lying on the bed with a weak look on his face. Su Ying hurriedly stepped forward and put her hand on his pulse.

After a moment, she pulled her hand away, shook her sleeves, looked at Situ Jing on the bed and said softly: "Mu Lin and I are the only ones left in this room now, you don't have to act."

Situ Jing, who was weak and pale just now, suddenly sat up from the bed, surprising Mu Lin: "You... Wang... Concubine... Him"

"Shh!" Situ Jing hurriedly made a silent gesture towards Mu Lin, then got up and stood at the door, listening to what was going on outside. After making sure that everyone outside had been driven away by Laifu, he whispered: " Don’t worry, I haven’t contracted the disease. If you don’t believe me, how can you still not believe in your princess’s medical skills?”

Mu Lin naturally didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd. Even Su Ying looked at him with confusion: "What's going on?"

Situ Jing looked at the dim skylight outside and said coldly: "Did she poison my tea?"

Su Ying frowned: "How did you find out?"

Situ Jing took out a porcelain bottle from the bookshelf next to him, handed it to Su Ying, and sneered: "That day when the medicinal materials were burned, she suddenly made tea for me. Ever since you asked me to be careful about her, I have never eaten any food she touched. Don’t eat.”
