Mei Ji and the assassin also waited outside for the entire night. Fortunately, Zhuge Qing’s house had eaves, unlike the alchemy room, which was bare. Wei Ting could only stand in the backyard in the rain.
However, it was not enough. The wind was too strong, and their clothes were still drenched.
Zhuge Qing closed the door, and no one could enter.
Mei Ji squatted on the ground and drew circles. “How do you think Master is? It’s been raining all night. Master’s leg must hurt badly.”
On rainy days, the cold would flare up even more, especially when the stone marrow was no longer very effective.
The killer said nothing.
“Why aren’t you saying anything?” Mei Ji asked unhappily.
The assassin wanted to say something but hesitated. At this moment, Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao walked over.
Mei Ji threw away the small stone in her hand and quickly walked to the two of them. She looked at Su Xiaoxiao first and said, “You seem to have been beaten up.”
The second sentence was, “Is the medicine refined?”
Wei Ting clenched the small box in his hand. “It’s done.”
“Let me see! Let me see!” Mei Ji temporarily coexisted with the blind man.
Wei Ting refused. “No, it’ll be cold if I open the medicine.” Mei Ji muttered, “You’re definitely taking revenge on me!”
The killer also looked at the two of them.
Compared to the noisy Mei Ji, he was much calmer.
His deep and sharp gaze swept across the two of them. He did not relax at all because of Wei Ting and Zhuge Qing’s brotherhood.
In his eyes, there were only two types of people, Sir and the others.
Wei Ting met his scrutiny indifferently. “How much longer do you have to watch? My second brother is feeling uncomfortable.”
The killer slowly moved aside and pushed open the door for Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao.
The three little ones occupied Zhuge Qing’s bed. Zhuge Qing rested in the study last night.
The two of them walked around the screen and came to a simple bed. They looked at Zhuge Qing’s slightly pale face. “Second Brother,” Wei Ting called him.
Zhuge Qing did not react.
Wei Ting took a step forward and grabbed his wrist. “Second Brother! Second
Brother!”
“I’m not dead yet,” Zhuge Qing said calmly.
Wei Ting frowned and said, “Your body is so hot.”
“It’ll be fine when the rain stops,” Zhuge Qing said weakly.
Wei Ting no longer wanted his second brother to suffer from illness. He sat down by the bed and helped his second brother up. “Second Brother, the medicine is ready.”
Mei Ji and the assassin followed.
Su Xiaoxiao poured a glass of warm water and said to Zhuge Qing, “I’ll say the same thing. I’m not sure about the medicinal effect. If it doesn’t work..”
The killer said, “Sir already wrote his last words last night.”
Su Xiaoxiao was speechless.
Even if this medicine was not effective, it would definitely not poison Zhuge Qing to death on the spot. However, in Zhuge Qing’s current state, if the medicine was ineffective, he would die of cold disease before he could survive this month.
Wei Ting opened the small box and took out a brown pill that was full of spiritual energy. Su Xiaoxiao put poured some warm water. “Chew it.”
Zhuge Qing looked at her tired face and smiled. “You’ve worked hard.”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “As long as Second Brother gets better, all the hard work is worth it!”
It was definitely not for double the consultation fee!
Zhuge Qing took the medicine.
Then there was a long wait.
On the other side, Yuwen Xi woke up early.
She left Moxie to take care of the two children while she brazenly left the Princess’s Residence.
The guards wanted to stop her, but they could not defeat her.
Last night, she could not sleep because of Zhuge Qing. She thought of many ways and finally decided to ask the Western Jin emperor in person.
Today, the emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty was a diligent emperor. He went to the imperial study to review the memorials.
As soon as he sat down, she heard someone report that Her Highness was here.
The emperor frowned and put down the memorial. “Let her in!”
Eunuch He brought in Yuwen Xi.
The Western Jin Emperor asked unhappily, “You’re getting more and more impudent. What do you take my imperial edict for?”
She was supposed to be under house arrest but she ran out every day. Yuwen Xi said seriously, “I have something to verify with Father. It’s about
Zhuge Qing.”
Hearing Zhuge Qing, the Western Jin Emperor’s expression softened. “What about him?”
Yuwen Xi asked, “Did Father ask Qin Su to treat his leg?”
The Western Jin Emperor asked, “Did Qin Su tell you?” Yuwen Xi said, “No, that girl didn’t dare to say. I discovered it myself.” The Western Jin Emperor nodded. “How did you discover it?”
Yuwen Xi said calmly, “Zhuge Qing needs a herb. That herb was bought by one of my advisors. She was afraid that he wouldn’t give it to her and lied that she was treating a friend. Father, don’t ask me in detail how I exposed her. I’ve been a princess for so many years. I can’t be completely useless..”
