C127 A Good Show Begins
When Jiegeng opened the door, the people from the Jiang family immediately surrounded her.
"Doctor Bai, what happened to Wanxin?" Jiang Da immediately went forward and asked.
Whether Jiang Da really cared about Jiang Wanxin that much was not entirely true. Jiang Da did not come from the same sect as Empress Jiang, so at his age, he was only a Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War.
However, it just so happened that the daughter of the Jiang family was not favoured after marrying into the Imperial Palace. As there were no more outstanding women in the family, the Empress Dowager then shifted her gaze to her daughter. Now, Jiang Wanxin was the only bargaining chip that could make Jiang Da turn the tables. Jiang Da was naturally exceptionally nervous.
"Your daughter is suffering from depression. If she had found out earlier and taken the medicine earlier, she wouldn't have reached this stage today. In addition, your daughter was born with a poor foundation, which caused her internal organs to be damaged. Lord Jiang had searched for famous doctors before, and presumably knew that your daughter's illness was beyond cure. The only thing I can do now is to temporarily use silver needles to slow down the pain in your daughter's body. It's just to slow down her breathing. " Bai Ye's expression was solemn.
Jiegeng followed beside him. Only now did she understand the meaning of Bai Ye using a needle just now. Bai Ye is more experienced than me when it comes to putting on a show.
"This, is there no other way for Doctor Bai?" Jiang Da saw that his future was bleak and became even more anxious. Originally, after Wanxin was locked in the room, the servants also repeatedly reported that Wanxin's mood was not high. Her appetite became slower and slower, but she did not expect that it would drag on until she became seriously ill.
Bai Ye sighed and sat on the chair. He picked up the brush and started to write the prescription.
"There is a way."
"Doctor Bai, please speak!" Jiang Da was very anxious.
"If we can find a medicine, your daughter might be saved."
Jiegeng heard him and immediately pulled on the corner of Bai Ye's shirt. Could this Bai Ye want to ruin my business?
"What medicine?" When Jiang Da found out that there was still hope, his eyes immediately lit up.
"Unicorn larvae."
"Doctor Bai, what is this? Why have I never heard of it?"
"This is an insect that grows in the Arctic region of the north. Now, only by finding this medicine can I save your daughter. " Bai Ye passed the prescription that he had written to Jiang Da.
Jiang Da took the prescription and immediately ordered his servants to brew the medicine.
"Jiegeng, you stay here for now. After the time it takes for two incense sticks to burn, help Miss Jiang take out the needles." Bai Ye instructed Jiegeng.
"Master Jiang, I have other matters to attend to."
"I will send Doctor Bai out. I will immediately send my subordinates to search for this medicine. Once I find it, I will inform Doctor Bai immediately. Thank you, Princess."
After sending Bai Ye away, Jiang Da immediately sent someone to report this news to the Empress Dowager. If he relied on his own strength, he definitely wouldn't be able to find the medicine. With the help of the royal family, there should still be hope!
Hsiang Xuanfei had really heard Bai Ye's words from the roof just now. Hsiang Xuanfei immediately appeared in front of the door after Jiang Da left.
"Mr Hsiang? Why are you here?" Jiegeng asked even though she knew the answer.
"How is Wanxin now?" Hsiang Xuanfei completely threw away the etiquette in his heart and directly barged into the inner chambers. Finally, he saw Jiang Wanxin who was sleeping on the bed.
"Before, I said that I would not come over no matter what. What's the use of rushing over now?" Jiegeng said coldly by the side. "You should have heard it just now. Why did Wanxin get sick?"
"Wanxin? Wanxin!" Hsiang Xuanfei did not care what Jiegeng was complaining about at the side. He just gently called out to the quiet girl on the bed.
"Open your eyes. I am here. Sorry, Wanxin, I am late."
Jiegeng walked to Jiang Wanxin's bedside and pushed Hsiang Xuanfei away. She quietly put away the needles for Wanxin.
"Was what Brother Ling said just now true? As long as we find that medicine, Wanxin will be saved?"
"Even if it is? Does this have anything to do with you?"
Looking at the unconscious woman on the bed, Hsiang Xuanfei's heart felt like it was about to break.
"Please take good care of her. I will find her even if I use all my strength. Please tell me the exact location of this medicine. I will go and find it myself."
Seeing that Hsiang Xuanfei was about to leave, Jiegeng hurriedly pulled him back.
"I can wake Wanxin up for a moment. Don't you want to say a few words to her?"
Hsiang Xuanfei immediately froze on the spot.
Jiegeng sighed and walked to Wanxin's side. She took out a bottle of medicine and placed it in front of Jiang Wanxin's nose.
After a while, Jiang Wanxin suddenly coughed a few times and then slowly opened her eyes.
"Jiegeng..." She did not speak for a few days and at this moment when she opened her mouth, Jiang Wanxin's throat seemed to be muffled.
Jiegeng immediately place her finger on Jiang Wanxin's lips, afraid that she would say something.
"Wanxin, look, who came."
Jiegeng moved her body away, letting Jiang Wanxin turn her head to see Hsiang Xuanfei who was standing in the distance.
When Jiang Wanxin saw Hsiang Xuanfei, her eyes immediately became moist. Not long after, teardrops rolled down one after another.
"Why aren't you coming over!" Jiegeng couldn't help but curse. Why did he look like a fool when he looked so anxious just now?
Hsiang Xuanfei hurriedly nodded his head and rushed to Jiang Wanxin's bed.
Hsiang Xuanfei tightly held Wanxin's hand. Looking at Wanxin's haggard appearance, he said half a sentence. Thousands of words seemed to be stuck in his throat and he was unable to make a sound.
"Alright, you guys talk first. I'll go outside and watch for you guys." Jiegeng immediately left the time for the two of them.
When Jiegeng came out of the door, she saw Shihan who had been waiting there for a long time.
"This effect is not bad? You still have this medicine. Give me some too. Maybe it will be useful in the future!"
Shihan immediately stretched out her hand and asked Jiegeng for it.
Jiegeng immediately slapped Shihan's hand, "Stop messing around. This matter was seen by my big brother. You don't even know how badly I was scolded by him just now."
"It's a joke. Don't take it so seriously." Shihan was shocked by Jiegeng's serious look.
"Wanxin, if I knew this would happen, I should have come to take you away as soon as possible."
"Xuan Fei, with my current appearance, do you still like me?" Jiang Wanxin choked with sobs. The current her would definitely lose face and her beauty would no longer be there. "I'm afraid that I will not be able to live for long."
"A mediocre person is happy with his looks. A gentleman loves his talents. Between you and me, do we need to say more?"
" Xuan Fei, I am already content to hear your words before I die. I will never be able to escape the control of Jiang family in this life. I only wish to be free after I die. In my next life, I will no longer be a part of a government official's family. I can do whatever I want. "
" I won't allow you to say such foolish words. I will find the medicine to save you. I still want to marry you back home. You will be the wife of Madam Duan in a hundred years, and not the daughter of Jiang family. "
After hearing these words, Wanxin could no longer resist the medicinal strength in her body and fainted once again.
"Wanxin!"
Hearing the different sound, Jiegeng and Shihan immediately entered the inner chambers.
"The servants of Jiang family are about to deliver the medicine. You can go back first." Shihan faced Hsiang Xuanfei and still did not have a good expression.
"If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place."
"Lord Duan, you should leave quickly. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if the Jiang Mansion found out. Leave Wanxin to me temporarily. Don't worry."
