Chapter 289 Prophecy
In the room of the inn, Wang Jinyi was sleeping soundly. His head was dizzy due to fever, his face was red, and he was still singing and shouting.
The usually stern Sister Feng fell into deep thought, expressionless.
The usually calm Baizhu was busy and flustered.
The uncle was pacing back and forth in the corridor outside the room, not daring to make any noise and disturb other guests.
The two maids sometimes brought water and medicine, and sometimes were asked to wait for people outside the door. They became like two little maids and were very busy.
More than an hour later, the first group of people came back with the doctor.
The doctor was in a rage, as if he was still in a bad mood after waking up. He looked impatient, took the patient's pulse, wrote a prescription, took two taels of silver, and asked to send him back.
Before his uncle could speak, Bai Shu spoke:
"Hurry up and send this man back to where he came from. Go!"
The uncle didn't understand what she meant. Looking at this girl who was said to be a descendant of a royal herbalist, he wondered where such anger came from.
Bai Zhu held up the prescription that the doctor had just written:
"Uncle, look, what is this thing he is driving?
He even made typos in the names of medicines, and couldn't distinguish the main medicines. He even added tonic medicines to the medicines for patients with fever. This is a doctor who wants to kill people. We are being kind to ask him to leave. He is harming people, and we should expose him..."
Bai Zhu was still chattering on and on about the doctor's evil deeds. His uncle glanced at Mr. Wu from the clan who brought the man in. They both nodded to each other knowingly. Mr. Wu saw the doctor out and didn't come back for a long time.
Mr. Wu came in only after the second wave of people who came to ask for the doctor came in. After he came back, he just nodded silently when he passed by his uncle, and then sat down to rest.
The second one was an old doctor who was famous in the area. He was thin and old, with mostly white beard. He came to the post station in a carriage with a young man and went straight to Wang Jinyi's room without any formalities.
After entering the room, I washed my hands and felt the patient's pulse. I squinted my eyes and felt the patient's pulse with both hands at the same time, then asked, "Does the patient often fall into a coma after a high fever?"
Bai Zhu quickly replied: "That's right."
"Has the patient just experienced a fright?"
Bai Zhu asked in confusion: "Hmm?"
Sister Feng quickly replied: "Yes!"
"Excuse my rudeness, but does this lady have any people or things that she can't let go of?"
Bai Zhu looked at Sister Feng this time and said, "No!"
Sister Feng asked back in confusion: "If a person is very outstanding, what would he worry about?"
The old doctor didn't understand why such a question was asked.
Sister Feng added: "The young lady is so outstanding, but she is so lonely..."
The old doctor said, "Hmm?"
What does excellence have to do with illness? The old doctor looked at Sister Feng and saw that she didn't seem to be anxious and confused. Forget it, there are all kinds of family members, so he decided to prescribe a prescription. So he went out to find his uncle to give medical advice and prescribe medicine.
Bai Zhu followed him out, and was worried and wanted to see the prescription written by the doctor.
Only Sister Feng and two maids were left in the room.
"Where are you? Where on earth are you?"
Wang Jinyi started talking nonsense again due to the fever, and Feng Jie could still hear the young lady crying:
"Why don't you come to see me?"
Sister Feng remained silent, and the two maids thought that the young lady's illness had become more serious.
Sister Feng wanted to question Sister Feng. She went to Xunnan to protect the young lady, and the young lady got sick from fright. She had to report to the captain when she returned. Mr. Wei sent her to protect Wang Jinyi, and something bad must happen...
Sister Feng was depressed and silent, while Baizhu prepared the medicine according to the prescription. That night, everyone in the Wang family's convoy was worried about the young lady's condition and the itinerary.
Baizhu boiled medicine for the young lady and served her patiently. After taking the medicine prescribed by the old doctor, Wang Jinyi finally stopped talking nonsense and fell asleep peacefully.
At dawn, the people who went to Baiyun Temple came back, and with them came a Taoist priest wearing a blue-gray Taoist robe.
The man was of medium build, with a thin face and long hair tied up with a wooden hairpin. He walked into the room calmly.
He just glanced at Wang Jinyi and said "Hmm?"
"Are there any relatives around this lady?"
The uncle originally thought that the old doctor had prescribed medicine and the patient was getting better, so he felt relieved. However, he did not expect that the Taoist priest would come and ask to see his family.
I hurriedly answered the door and pushed it open and heard:
"I am the child's elder, please tell me if you have anything to say."
The Taoist looked at his uncle and shook his head, "No, you are not her relative."
"Well, I'm not her direct relative, but I'm from her clan."
The Taoist still shook his head.
"I just want to remind you that this child will recover from her fever in about three days. But she will be in danger of a bloody disaster within half a month. Since you are her uncle, you must protect her..."
He felt the patient's pulse as he spoke, and glanced around at the people around the bed, still shaking his head.
The Taoist priest stood up, bowed his head and asked, "Can I see the prescription?"
Bai Shu followed him out again. The clan elder led the Taoist to his room. Soon the Taoist was respectfully sent out. The clan uncle thanked him again and again. The Taoist politely declined the money as a thank you and could only send someone to add incense oil to Baiyun Temple.
After sending the Taoist priest away, everyone felt relieved, except Feng Jie, who took it to heart. She still remembered what Feng Jie said, that after Putian and the young lady met, she reminded the young lady that there would be a bloody disaster within half a month...
After seeing off the Taoist priest from Baiyun Temple, my uncle also fell into deep thought.
The sky gradually woke up from the darkness, and a thin mist quietly spread among the flowers, plants and trees. As the light in the sky gradually brightened, the sun peeked out half of its face.
Yesterday, because Wang Jinyi suddenly had a high fever, everyone who hadn't slept all night got up early and packed up, preparing to find a place to rest in the county town ahead, to see how Wang Jinyi was doing before deciding on the next itinerary.
The uncle sent someone to inform the clan's convoy going to Beiyukou that the Wang family convoy was on the road again, moving very slowly, and they just wanted to get to the county town before dark...
On the two horses at the back of the convoy, two young men dressed as women were following from a distance with heavy hearts.
Fengmei's self-blame was beyond words, not because of Fengjie's stern look, but because the young lady was still in a coma.
Just as the Taoist said, after staying in the county inn for two days, Wang Jinyi slowly woke up.
The hustle and bustle of the inn and the sound of footsteps in the corridor all made Wang Jinyi feel unfamiliar. The early morning sunlight shone through the wooden window lattices, and the soft light gradually brightened the room.
Wang Jinyi rolled her eyes, looking at the people around her with a bit of confusion, and called out softly:
"Chen Zhiyuan, Chen Zhiyuan..."
Sister Feng, who was lying on the table, and Mammy, who was sitting at the head of the bed, woke up at the same time, "Miss."
"Miss, are you calling me?"
Wang Jinyi looked at the person in front of her and shook her head. Sister Feng and the nanny looked at each other with confusion in their eyes. They seemed to have heard a name.
Wang Jinyi sat up and rubbed his temples. He felt that he had just seen a person. The person kept waving at him from afar, but he could not see his face clearly.
She opened her big, misty eyes and looked at the two people in front of her who seemed both strange and familiar.
