Chapter 1831: Chapter 1828: Lending a Hand

“And what have you given to Xiao Yi as your son? Just from this point alone, you have no right to complain about me and your father.”

“No respect for elders above, no love for your young child below, Huo Zixing, you truly are a good person.”

The Elder Princess cast off this heavily sarcastic remark, flicked her sleeves, and strode out of the hall, ordering coldly, “Keep him under strict watch; without my order, do not let him out.”

“Yes.”

The door of the hall was closed, leaving only the Commandery Prince inside, sitting in a wheelchair, cold sweat pouring from his forehead, in a state of disarray, his expression dazed.

The Elder Princess quickly walked out and returned to the adjacent courtyard, just in time to hear the news of the Sacred Girl of Southern Border’s visit at the door. She narrowed her eyes and said to the old nanny, “Nanny, you personally go and bring her in.”

“Yes.” The old nanny sighed inwardly, knowing there was no way to change the Elder Princess’s decision, only ensuring things went smoothly, and quickly left.

Lu Sangqi had already performed acupuncture on the Young Prince, and at this moment, the painful expression on the Young Prince’s face had dissipated somewhat.

The palace lady beside him repeatedly wiped his sweat, making the whole room seem solemn and cold.

“Your Highness.” Lu Sangqi heard the sound, turned around, and saw the Elder Princess, greeting her.

The Elder Princess walked to the bedside, looked at the Young Prince, a shadow of sorrow flashed across her face, as if remembering something, immersed in thought for a long while without moving.

Lu Sangqi silently waited for a moment.

The sound of a report came from the door.

“Your Highness, the Sacred Girl of Southern Border has arrived.”

“Let her come in.” The Elder Princess’s voice was not gentle, even somewhat sharp, causing Lu Sangqi to raise an eyebrow involuntarily.

The hall door creaked open, and the Sacred Girl of Southern Border, still wearing a veil hat, slowly walked in, followed by an old woman, but without the Southern Border Witch Doctor.

After approaching, the Sacred Girl of Southern Border first saluted the Elder Princess.

The Elder Princess waited for her to finish the salute before speaking, directly asking, “Saintess, why isn’t the Witch Doctor with you today when you come to diagnose Xiao Yi?”

“Your Highness, the Witch Doctor is seriously ill. I have been learning medical skills since childhood, even without the Witch Doctor present, it will not affect the diagnosis of the Young Prince. On this point, I can vouch with the reputation of the Sacred Girl of Southern Border.” The Sacred Girl of Southern Border explained with poise.

The Elder Princess furrowed her brows slightly, “Then how likely is it for the Young Prince to be cured?”

“There is only a sixty percent chance.” The Sacred Girl of Southern Border’s eyebrows were slightly furrowed, showing a worried expression, “Your Highness, are you prepared for this?”

“It is not about my preparedness, but due to the Young Prince’s misuse of medicine, he must be treated now.” The Elder Princess’s words already carried anger, “I will investigate the reasons behind this, and the Saintess should just do her best to treat the Young Prince.”

The Sacred Girl of Southern Border paused only slightly, then nodded in agreement.

She took out the medicine box and discussed with Lu Sangqi how to use the medicines.

“Doctor Lu, as we discussed before, to draw out the Gu insect from the Young Prince’s body, we must use the fresh blood of his blood relatives. In addition, there are unique medicinal herbs from the Southern Border to lure out the Gu insect.”

“But during this period, you must help stabilize the Young Prince’s body. He is too young, plus his body is weak; if the extraction of the Gu insect fails, it will cause him a great shock.”

“I have prepared most of the medicinal herbs on my side, but one herb is still missing, so we can only increase the fresh blood,” the Sacred Girl of Southern Border said, kindly reminding as she looked at Her Highness the Elder Princess.

The Elder Princess’s expression remained unchanged, “No matter, the Commandery Prince is willing to help.”
