The next day, Xu Dong entered the palace with Xu Zhou. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

After Xu Dong went to see Loulan Zhen according to the number of rites, he followed his father to Chenghuan Palace.

As soon as he stepped into the gate of Chenghuan Palace, Xu Dong suddenly felt as if he had smelled a familiar smell, but soon the smell was covered by the smell of herbs all over the hall.

Xu Dong was originally a doctor, and no matter how bitter and strange the smell of herbs was, he had long been accustomed to it, so he didn't feel uncomfortable. The two stood still in the front yard, and he asked Xu Zhou in a low voice while looking around, "Where is the medicine stove?"

Xu Zhou said: "Backyard. ”

As soon as the words fell, several doctors came out of the main hall, and when they saw Xu Zhou and Xu Dong, they bowed and saluted: "The chief physician, the son of Xu Dong." ”

Xu Zhou asked, "How is the princess?"

One of the doctors had a happy face: "The princess's condition has been improving since yesterday, and neither the pulse nor the healing of the wound has deteriorated. ”

Hearing this, Xu Zhou and Xu Dong glanced at each other silently.

Then Xu Zhou smiled: "That's really great, let's go in and take a look." ”

After speaking, several people walked towards the hall together.

Xu Zhou and Xu Dong deliberately lagged a few steps behind the other doctors, and Xu Dong said with a gloomy face: "I'll go to the medicine furnace and branch the people behind." ”

Xu Zhou nodded and said cautiously: "Be careful." ”

After that, Xu Zhou walked straight towards the hall, and Xu Dong bypassed the main hall and went to the backyard.

In the backyard, I saw several medicine attendants from the imperial hospital holding large fans and gently fanning several medicine stoves.

When they saw Xu Dong coming, they saluted one after another, but they did not dare to slack off in the work in their hands.

Xu Dong said: "The chief physician has something important to order, so I will ask a few of you to come over." ”

After several of the medicine attendants listened, one of them said to the others, "Go, I'll watch here." ”

Xu Dong immediately said: "The chief physician told you all to come over, and I will come here." ”

With that, he walked over and took the fan from one of the men's hands, and took care of the medicine stove.

A few of the medicine attendants left the backyard together.

After a while, Xu Dong saw a few medicine attendants coming back, so he went to the front yard to hand over to his father.

As soon as Xu Dong arrived in the front yard, Xu Zhou happened to come out of the hall, and when he saw Xu Dong, he raised his eyebrows as if asking. Xu Dong nodded lightly, which was an answer.

Xu Zhou pulled Xu Dong out a few steps and asked, "Why don't you go in and take a look?"

Xu Dong shook his head: "That's it." ”

As he spoke, he looked in the direction of the hall and said to himself, "It's strange that this princess has a thin life, I'm sorry." ”

Xu Zhou's expression was solemn: "Can you make sure that there are no traces?"

Xu Dong was confident and calm: "Never." ”

Xu Zhou has always believed in his son, and he seemed to be relieved when he heard this.

"Time is tight for a trip back and forth to Dongcheng, now you go back to Fenguo and join Cui Dongtian. Xu Zhou said.

Xu Dong frowned inadvertently when he heard this, he first nodded, and then said, "Well, I will rush back as soon as possible, but before that, I still have to find someone in Dongcheng." ”

After Xu Dong finished speaking, he took a deep breath. He looked up at the sky slightly, thinking, Gu Wanyan, where are you?

==========================

Five days later, at night, Loulan Zhenben rested in Concubine Rong's palace, and when she was half asleep and half awake, Gonggong Yuan suddenly asked to see her outside the door and said that there was an urgent report.

Lou Lan, who was asleep, was really unhappy to be woken up, he hazy put on his clothes and walked towards the outside of the hall, and as soon as he pushed open the door, he saw Gonggong Yuan kneeling in front of him.

Just before Loulan Zhen was about to get angry, Gonggong Yuan didn't care about any etiquette, so he only heard him say in a trembling voice: "Your Royal Highness, Princess Cong..... Princess Cong is out of breath!"

"What?!" Lou Lanzhen woke up in an instant, and suddenly he was completely sleepy, and with a panicked face, he bypassed Yuan Gonggong and walked straight towards Chenghuan Palace.

Gonggong Yuan hurriedly stood up and followed, and shouted in a long voice: "Your Highness is driving the Chenghuan Palace-"

Loulan Zhen came to the Chenghuan Palace, only to see that the hall was brightly lit, and a few palace maids were kneeling lifelessly, the smell of medicinal herbs was still so bad that it was suffocating, and the doctors were all in Gu Wanyan's room.

An indescribable tension filled the air, and it was a thrilling sensation.

Loulan Zhen strode through the main hall and came to Gu Wanyan's room, the doctors in the room were all standing with dull faces, and Xu Zhou was sitting on the edge of Gu Wanyan's bed with beads of sweat on his forehead, and he was wearing thick and thin silver acupuncture for her.

"See His Royal Highness!" everyone reacted for a long time, but their voices were a little weak.

Xu Zhou didn't seem to have time to take care of Lou Lanzhen, he didn't salute, but concentrated on saving Gu Wanyan.

"Excuse me. Lou Lanzhen walked to Gu Wanyan's bedside with a solemn face, stared at Gu Wanyan's face for a long time, and didn't dare to speak for fear of disturbing Xu Zhou's treatment.

Gu Wanyan was lying flat on the bed, her eyes closed, her lips were white, and there was almost no blood on her face, which made Lou Lan really uneasy.

After a while, he couldn't help it after all, and personally reached out to probe Gu Wanyan's snort.

At the moment when he personally felt that Gu Wanyan had lost all his breath, Lou Lan was really shocked, her heart almost stagnated, and her face turned white all of a sudden.

"This ...... Didn't you say a few days ago that you had gotten better, and that you had a consciousness in the middle, how could it suddenly be like this?!"

Xu Zhou's eyes did not move, and the movements in his hands were still cautious and careful, and he said in a low voice: "There are indeed signs of improvement, but the princess's improvement seems to be completely caused by the inexplicable breath in her body, but the breath suddenly dissipated, so the princess also suddenly lost her breath." ”

Hearing the word "breathless", Lou Lan really couldn't help but gasp deeply, the green tendons on his forehead burst out, and he muttered: "How can it be...... How can this be......"

Xu Zhou didn't respond, still carefully handling the silver needle inserted in Gu Wanyan's knife wound.

"Is that ...... Can't be saved?" Lou Lan asked in a lost spirit.

Xu Zhou shook his head, and after a pause, he glanced at Lou Lanzhen, and said with a solemn expression: "At present, it seems very likely that it will not be able to be saved-but the ministers will do their best to save the princess's life!"

Lou Lanzhen nodded slowly, and there seemed to be a pleading tone in her words: "You must save her!"

After speaking, Lou Lanzhen only felt that his legs were weak, he slowly walked to the chair on the side and sat down, his eyes were empty, and he didn't say a word.

At this moment, even Loulan Zhen himself didn't know whether he cared so much about Gu Wanyan's life because she would not be able to go to Fen Country and increase the danger of Loulan Kingdom, or just because she was his own sister.

However, just two hours later, after Loulan Zhen witnessed Xu Zhou and other doctors inserting needles and pulling needles together, feeding and dressing medicines, and being busy for two hours without stopping, the bad news came.

Xu Zhou's eyes were red, his clothes were already all soaked with sweat, and his hair was slightly messy, after he finally stopped what he was doing, he stood up from Gu Wanyan's bed with his head down, and slowly walked to Lou Lanzhen step by step.

Loulan Zhen also stood up, looking at him, still holding the last glimmer of hope in his heart, he cautiously asked, "How?"

Xu Zhou sighed: "The ministers are incompetent, please surrender your highness." ”

Lou Lan really didn't speak, but her face became more and more ugly.

He slowly looked at Gu Wanyan on the bed, and after a while, he said word by word: "Call Gonggong Yuan in." ”

Gonggong Yuan trembled into the room, and Lou Lan's true voice commanded: "Immediately, go find the Holy Master of Yufeng to come over." ”

When Xu Zhou heard that Loulan was really going to call Yu Feng Holy Master, his face moved slightly.

Gonggong Yuan looked at Gu Wanyan and immediately replied, "Yes!"

After saying that, he hurriedly retreated.

Then, the room was dead silent, and no one dared to speak, not even to breathe.

After a while, Gonggong Yuan actually ran back again.

Lou Lan really saw that Gonggong Yuan didn't go to find Yu Feng, and her eyes seemed to be about to kill: "Why are you back again?!"

Seeing that Loulan was really about to get angry, Gonggong Yuan hurriedly explained: "Go back to Your Highness! As soon as the slave came out of the Chenghuan Palace, the Holy Master came!"
