“Is your foot injured? Let me take a look at it for you first.”
After hearing what the palace doctor said, Imperial Concubine Yun noticed that there was something wrong with the way Qi Mohan walked.
“Mohan, what happened to your foot?”
Qi Mohan saw his mother coming to check on his feet and subconsciously moved back: “This son’s feet are fine, I was just bitten by the water beast. Now Miss Si Si’s health is more important.”
How could he care about his own feet now? He had finally saved Si Si, but now he was facing a situation where there was no cure.
It happened that at this time, Han Yi returned to the mansion with his subordinates. He and Han Er were Qi Mohan’s personal secret guards, so naturally they had to guard their master at all times.
After sending the others to rest, Han Yi and Han Er came to the yard of the two little kids to wait for orders.
Qi Mohan sensed their presence and quickly ordered the palace doctor to write a prescription for Si Si’s illness, and then gave it to Han Yi, asking him to immediately arrange for someone to take the medicine to Suolan Lake to ask for it from Prince Heng and Prince Jin.
Han Yi received the order and went down to make arrangements, but Qi Mohan still felt uneasy.
Because he knew clearly that even if Prince Heng and Prince Jin had medicinal herbs, they would not carry them with them. After arriving at Solan Lake and obtaining their consent, he would go to their mansions to get them.
Suolan Lake was much farther from their fiefdom than Qiushui City. If his subordinates go out and come back, he is afraid they will not be able to get back in less than a day.
Qi Mohan was worried that Si Si’s condition would not last long enough for his subordinates to fetch medicine, but the current situation in Qiushui City was like this, and he couldn’t think of a better solution.
Imperial Concubine Yun looked at Si Si worriedly, asked her maid to bring a wet handkerchief, and applied it to her forehead herself.
She doesn’t know if it was because of Imperial Concubine Yun’s wet towel, or because Si Si felt a little warmth while lying on the bed, but she turned over on her own.
Imperial Concubine Yun and Qi Mohan were surprised to see this. Suddenly, they heard Si Si muttering to herself as if she was shouting something: “You are all evil. I will never let my parents’ property tall into your hands…”
“Dad…Mom… I miss you so much…Are you doing well in the other world? ”
Imperial Concubine Yun looked at Qi Mohan with some uneasiness. She didn’t know what Si Si had encountered in the past two days. Even when she was unconscious, she was still fighting against those bad guys.
Also, the dad and mom she called, are they the names they called their parents at that time?
After Qi Mohan rescued Si Si, the two had no chance to communicate. He knew nothing about what Si Si said. When faced with his mother’s question, he could only spread his hands helplessly, saying that he was not clear.
At this time, in front of Prince Rong’s mansion, Si Chaoqun was begging the guards at the gate.
“Please, just help inform them that we are the relatives of the girl that His Royal Highness Prince Rong just brought back.”
He didn’t see Qi Mohan carrying Si Si back to the mansion with his own eyes, so what he said was just his guess. If what he said was correct, he hoped the guards could be accommodating.
The guard’s face was cold, and he was not moved at all by Si Chaoqun’s plea.
“When the prince came back just now, he had already instructed that he had important matters to attend to and would not see anyone.”
Si Chaoqun was still unwilling: “It’s okay not to see the prince, I just want to see that girl.”
Seeing that the man was adamant, the guards got angry and said: “This is Prince Rong’s residence. Not everyone can enter if they want to. You’d better leave early, or the prince will find out and blame you.”
Si Chaoqun saw that the guards were determined to stop him. After all, he was in ancient times and he had just arrived. He really couldn’t think of any good way to enter Prince Rong’s Mansion.
Helplessly, he could only stand at the side of the mansion’s gate, staring without blinking.
In this way, as soon as Prince Rong went out, he would rush over and explain his purpose.
Si Chaoqun had just found a place to stand with Si Si’s shoes when he saw the gate of the mansion open and two guards hurried out.
When Si Chaoqun saw these two people, he felt like he saw a savior, because he still remembered one of them. It was the one who sent his family of three back to Qiushui City that day.
Si Chaoqun ran to the gate of the palace again in the rain and blocked the way of the two guards.
“Sir, do you still remember me?” He imitated the original owner’s speaking manner.
The guard was forced to stop and looked at Si Chaoqun. Of course, he remembered this man. He was Qiao Zhenwu’s brother-in-law.
The guards did not have a good impression of Si Chaoqun, and even once questioned why Qi Mohan spared the family of three and sent them to escort them back to Qiushui City.
If this person had known better, he should have stayed at home quietly and reduced his presence as much as possible, to avoid angering the prince and forcing his family to follow those officials to the farm to do hard labor for the rest of their lives.
Unexpectedly, this person was so tactless that he took the initiative to find Prince Rong’s mansion.
Facing a person who he didn’t have a good impression of, the guard naturally wouldn’t have a good face: “What do you want?”
Si Chaoqun naturally understood the attitude towards him, but in order to confirm the relationship between the owner of the shoes and his daughter, he no longer cared about many things.
“Sir, it’s like this.” He held the shoes he had just seen in front of him and said: “Just now I saw His Royal Highness Prince Rong holding a woman. That woman is my relative. I want to see her. Please, sir. Please help to inform him.”
The guard didn’t know that Qi Mohan had ordered not to see visitors, and he pointed at the guard at the door impatiently and said: “I want to let you know, go find them, don’t stop me from doing my job.”
After saying that, before Si Chaoqun could react, he used his Qinggong to leap up, and quickly disappeared on the spot with his companions.
Si Chaoqun stood back in his original position again, waiting for the next opportunity.
Si Si’s body temperature was getting higher and higher, and she kept calling out “Mom and Dad” and even said some words that confused Qi Mohan and Imperial Concubine Yun confused.
Imperial Concubine Yun looked at Si Si’s cheeks, which had lost all color from the fever, and said worriedly: “Mohan, dragging it on like this is not a solution. I’m worried that Miss Si Si won’t survive until they can find the medicine.”
Qi Mohan had such concerns, but he was unwilling to accept this fact.
He reached out and touched Si Si’s forehead, it was hot.
Qi Mohan looked towards the outside. The heavy rain still showed no sign of stopping. It was even heavier than when he had just returned.
He suddenly thought of a scene he had read in a book. In the absence of medical care and medicine, a father took off all his clothes and lay in a snowdrift in the cold winter to save his son, who had a spontaneous high fever. After cooling down his body, he came back and hugged her son to cool him down.
Although this method may sound a bit useless, the father did use it to save his son’s life.
Thinking of this, Qi Mohan immediately took out a dry cloak, wrapped Si Si’s whole body, and then picked her up horizontally.
