After I became a passerby, I saved the villain's family

Chapter 178 The show is about to begin

Doctor Zhou from the Imperial Medical Bureau hurried to the clan house with a medicine box.

After treating Xiao Yuheng, Doctor Zhou looked heavy-hearted.

"From my pulse diagnosis, Your Highness has been suffering from this illness for more than two months."

Xiao Yuheng nodded silently.

Emperor Chengren frowned.

Why did it take so long?

He was fine when I saw him in the Yangxin Palace a month ago...

"Your Majesty, the Third Prince is suffering from a disease caused by worry. There are no symptoms at first, but he just can't eat. Over time, it will damage his body. Once the root is damaged, it will be difficult for the body to recover."

"Is there any way to cure it?" Emperor Chengren asked hurriedly.

"Your Majesty, rest assured. The Third Prince's illness has not yet penetrated deep into his bones. As long as he takes medicine on time, I believe he will recover soon. However, the environment in this Zongren Mansion is humid, which is not conducive to recuperation, and..."

Imperial Physician Zhou looked at Emperor Chengren hesitantly.

"If you have any questions, just say it. Why are you hesitating?" Emperor Chengren scolded.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. This heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine. Decoctions can only treat physical illnesses, but this heart disease..."

Doctor Zhou said, looking at Xiao Yuheng, "I wonder what is on your mind that makes you unable to eat?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuheng lowered his head and remained silent.

Seeing this, Eunuch Liu on the side knelt down on the ground with a plop.

"Your Majesty! Please forgive me for being so talkative!"

"Since being imprisoned in the Imperial Clan House, the Third Prince has thought of the persecuted people every day and night, and feels deeply guilty. He knows that his crime is unforgivable, and he wants to do something for the people, so he copies scriptures every day to pray for the people of the world."

"Your Highness worked day and night, writing without ceasing, and was overly worried, which led to his serious illness..."

"Eunuch Liu, stop talking!" Xiao Yuheng spoke up to stop him.

Eunuch Liu pretended not to hear, "Your Majesty, everything I said is true, please understand!"

Emperor Chengren's face was gloomy and unclear.

"You also copied the scriptures?"

Xiao Yuheng smiled weakly, "It's just that I practice calligraphy in my spare time..."

"Your Highness! Please stop hiding it!"

Eunuch Liu boldly interrupted him, stood up, and took out a thick stack of rice paper from the cabinet against the wall.

"Your Majesty, these are the scriptures that Your Highness copied for the people during your time at the clan house..."

Eunuch Luo took it and presented it to His Majesty.

Emperor Chengren frowned and looked through the pictures one by one.

Eunuch Liu was waiting on the side. When he saw Emperor Chengren carefully looking through the papers, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he brought all the calligraphy copies that His Highness had practiced before.

Xiao Yuheng likes writing, especially copying scriptures, which makes him feel calm.

Most of these calligraphy works were what he wrote for daily practice. When he came to the clan house, Eunuch Liu was afraid that he would be bored, so he brought all his writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstone, as well as the calligraphy he practiced every day.

I didn't expect it would come in handy now...

Emperor Chengren had finished translating most of it.

This is indeed the handwriting of the third brother, with steady strokes and neat characters.

Emperor Chengren looked at Xiao Yuheng with a complicated expression.

Feeling his gaze, Xiao Yuheng raised his head and was about to say something when he suddenly coughed violently.

"Ahem, cough!"

"Your Highness!" Eunuch Liu hurriedly handed him a handkerchief.

Xiao Yuheng coughed for a while.

When I looked up, I saw a small pool of blood on the handkerchief.

"Your Highness! You are coughing up blood!" Eunuch Liu exclaimed.

Upon hearing this, Doctor Zhou hurried forward to check.

Seeing the blood on the handkerchief, he said to Emperor Chengren with a serious expression: "Your Majesty, the environment in the clan residence is bad and it is really not conducive to recuperation. Please think twice!"

Emperor Chengren's face looked gloomy.

Xiao Yuheng spoke weakly: "Father, don't worry. I am guilty now and should reflect on myself in the clan house... Don't worry, I know my body well and I won't die..."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Chengren frowned tightly.

"Doctor Zhou, please go get medicine for the Third Prince first." Emperor Chengren said.

"Yes." Upon hearing this, Doctor Zhou quickly retreated.

When he reached the door, he turned around and looked at Xiao Yuheng, nodding almost imperceptibly.

Xiao Yuheng leaned against the bed, allowing Emperor Chengren to look at him with a probing gaze.

After a while, Emperor Chengren slowly said, "Heng'er, take good care of yourself and don't worry about other things. I will come to see you when I am free."

"Thank you, father." A smile appeared on Xiao Yuheng's pale face.

Emperor Chengren looked at him deeply again, then turned and left.

Seeing Emperor Chengren leave the room, Eunuch Liu hurriedly asked: "Your Highness, His Majesty..."

Xiao Yuheng shook his head and gestured to the door with his eyes.

Eunuch Liu understood.

Xiao Yuheng pretended to cough again.

"Your Highness, why are you doing this?"

Eunuch Liu looked in the direction of the door and spoke loudly.

"I am unfilial. My grandfather is old and my father is in poor health, but he still has to worry about me, an unfilial son. I really deserve to die..." Xiao Yuheng spoke stutteringly.

Eunuch Liu said in a sad voice, "Your Highness, please don't talk nonsense..."

The master and servant exchanged words with each other, Xiao Yuheng kept repenting, and Eunuch Liu kept advising him.

Standing outside the door, with his back against the wall, Emperor Chengren had a look of pain in his eyes.

His Henger...

Could it be that he really did something wrong?

Eunuch Luo observed Emperor Chengren's expression and became more and more frightened.

Your Majesty, are you soft-hearted?

Two days later, an oral order was delivered to the clan office.

Emperor Chengren issued an edict to lift the ban on the third prince Xiao Yuheng, allowed him to move back to Yonghe Palace, and ordered Imperial Physician Zhou to treat him carefully without any mistakes.

East Palace.

Xiao Yujing stood in the yard, playing with a dart in his hand, and listened to Jia Zuo's reply.

"It came out so soon!" Burch said in surprise.

Xiao Yujing smiled and said nothing.

"He's actually using the self-torture tactic? The Third Prince is really cruel to himself." Birch said angrily.

Jia Zuo remained unmoved and continued, "Your Highness, I have checked it out and found that Doctor Zhou is indeed from the He family."

"Ever since the Third Prince threatened to commit suicide, you asked your subordinates to keep a close eye on the people coming in and out. Apart from the guards, only Imperial Doctor Zhou and his medicine boy entered the clan residence that day."

"Dr. Zhou has been inactive recently. Until a few days ago, when Elder He came to Beijing, he quietly went to Elder He's house."

"After some searching, I found out that when Doctor Zhou was young, he was once supported by Elder He, and he was also responsible for Concubine Jia's childbirth."

"However, the relationship between the Zhou family and the He family is very secretive, and no one else knows about the relationship between the two families."

Imperial Physician Zhou was a very low-key person and was not considered a prominent figure in the entire Imperial Hospital.

If he hadn't intended to find out, he probably wouldn't have thought that Doctor Zhou was from the He family.

Xiao Yujing stroked the dart in his hand.

He raised his hand and aimed at the target in the distance.

Aim and throw.

"Whoosh-"

The dart hit the bullseye.

Xiao Yujing curled his lips and smiled.

The show is about to begin.
