Chapter 705 - 705: Acknowledging Brother

The coachman immediately raised the umbrella above Zhuge Qing’s head.

The rain was too heavy, and many raindrops still hit Zhuge Qing’s thin body.

The black-armored guard hurriedly draped a raincoat over him.

“There’s no need.” he said.

The black-armored guard put away the raincoat.

Without any persuasion or hesitation, every black-armored guard obeyed the military order.

“Go in,” Zhuge Qing said to the coachman.

“Yes, sir.”

The coachman pushed open the door opposite the Moon Chasing Inn and the black-armored guard pushed the wheelchair in.

The Western Jin Imperial Palace was brightly lit.

The Western Jin emperor sat on a chair in the Hall of Supreme Harmony with a cold gaze.

The young royal prince was diagnosed with smallpox only after he had a plaque rash yesterday. Previously, it was treated as a cold.

Since this morning, his condition had taken a turn for the worse. The Western Jin Emperor had sent the most experienced imperial physicians over.

What awaited him was Imperial Physician Zhang returning to get a new prescription, saying that the young royal prince was still in danger.

Everyone understood that the young prince could not be saved.

The princes stood at the side with worried expressions. Naturally, they were all putting on a show for the Western Jin emperor.

The royal family had no regard for brotherly love. They did not care about Yuwen Xi’er’s life and death.

The young eunuch reported, “Your Majesty, Chief Physician Chu is here.”

Imperial Physician Zhang had just come and said that the young royal prince’s condition had deteriorated greatly. He said that he wanted to prepare a new set of medicine to try.

Less than two hours later, Chief Physician Chu personally came to report.

It was impossible that the prescription had worked. The medicine was not ready at all.

Then there was only one possibility—the young royal prince had passed away.

The Western Jin Emperor said, “Summon. ”

Chief Physician Chu stumbled in and tripped at the door.

His anxious appearance confirmed their guess. Heh, Yuwen Xi, your sickly son is finally going to die.

“Your Majesty!”

Chief Physician Chu said with a trembling voice as he cupped his hands and bowed.

The Western Jin emperor gripped the armrest of his chair. “How’s Yi’er?” Chief Physcian Chu said with a trembling voice, “The young royal prince… his fever has subsided!”

The Third Prince raised his arm and cried, “Father, take it easy…”

Wait!

What did Chief Phyician Chu say?

What subsided? What fever? What subsided?

That sickly invalid wasn’t dead?

Had his condition improved?

Su Xiaoxiao slept too late last night. When she woke up, Wei Ting and the three children were already gone.

A beautiful figure leaned over. “Qin Su, you’re awake?”

Su Xiaoxiao was slightly stunned. She looked at the face inches away and asked in confusion, “The young princess?”

“It’s me!” The young princess said.

Su Xiaoxiao slowly sat up. “Can you come out alreadt?”

“Yes!” The young princess nodded. “My brother’s fever subsided last night.

Since His Majesty was happy, he allowed me to come out to play!” Thinking of something, she frowned slightly. “Mother and Moxie can’t come out yet.”

“I see.” Su Xiaoxiao got out of bed. “Where are Wei Ting and children?”

The young princess said, “General Wei went out. He was afraid of waking you up. He brought Dahu, Erhu, and Xiaohu to buy candied hawthorn. Fusu and Fu are next door. Xing’er is outside. Do you want to call for them?”

How long had this girl been here? She recognized everyone around her.

“No.” Su Xiaoxiao washed up, dressed, and ate something simple.

“Have some too,” she said to the young princess. “It’s almost noon. You must be hungry.”

The princess sighed. “I can’t eat.”

“Wait.” Su Xiaoxiao stood up and walked to the window.

The princess thought that Su Xiaoxiao was going to bring her something else to eat. She said listlessly, “I really can’t eat anything…”

“Can’t eat! Can’t eat! Can’t eat!”

A familiar voice suddenly sounded. The young princess turned around and looked at the parrot that Su Xiaoxiao had summoned back from outside. She was so excited that she almost cried. “Wuhu!”

Wuhu flapped their wings in fear!

Why did it have to be her?

Wuhu were about to run when the young princess hugged it. It was so strangled that its eyes rolled back as it suffocated.

“Wuhu! I miss you so much!”

The young princess hugged Wuhu and pressed it against her. Wuhu rolled its eyes.

It was almost out of breath. Its bird life was over!

The princess looked at Su Xiaoxiao resentfully. “Qin Su, why didn’t you tell me yesterday that Wuhu is here?”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “I want to give you surprises one by one.”

The princess asked, “Then, is Sihu here?”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and shook her head. “It’s still young. It can’t travel that far.”

It could not be locked up in a carriage. After all, it was not a two-month-old foal.

“It’s fine. When I have the chance, I’ll go to the Great Zhou to see it! Right,

Wuhu?”

The princess began to eat again. She was in a good mood and had an appetite. She ate a bowl of noodles.

Su Xiaoxiao still remembered to buy medicine.

The young princess was familiar with the West Capital. Coincidentally, there was a good medicine shop nearby, so she brought Su Xiaoxiao there.

Su Xiaoxiao personally went to the medicine cabinet in the hall to choose herbs. The young princess didn’t know about medicine, so she quietly sat at the side with Wuhu.

Su Xiaoxiao occasionally turned to look at her.

Who said that this girl had a bad temper? She was clearly very obedient. “Miss, the herbs you chose are all here. Do you want anything else?”

“Do you have snow lotus?”

The snow lotus was cold and could reduce heat. “Miss, you came at the right time. We have the last box.”

“Shopkeeper, do you have snow lotus?”

A young girl with a pearl hairpin walked over, followed by two well-dressed maidservants.

When the shopkeeper saw her style, he knew that she came from a noble background and could not be offended. However, he could not ruin their reputation when doing business.

He pointed at Su Xiaoxiao. “This girl wants the last box of snow lotus.”

The girl turned to look at Su Xiaoxiao. At first glance, her figure was not slender, but her face was unbelievably beautiful.

She was stunned for a moment before saying, “Miss, I’ll pay double. Can you give it to me?” “Not for sale.”

“You can look at other shops. There’s more than one pharmacy on this street.”

“If other shops had it, you would have bought it long ago.”

The girl choked.

This was a life-saving medicine. Su Xiaoxiao wouldn’t use the young prince’s life to accumulate wealth.

The maidservant at the side said, “Do you know who my young lady is?”

The young princess carried Wuhu and walked over arrogantly. “Do you know who I am?

When the maidservant saw her, her expression changed and she bowed. “Princess Xin. ”

The girl was not afraid at all. She smiled and said, “Yo, so it’s Sister Xin. I thought Sister Xin had been locked up in the residence. Why? Are you released

She said this as if the young princess was a criminal.

The young princess was so angry that her cheeks puffed up.

The girl smiled and said, “Don’t be angry, Sister Xin. I’m happy that you came out. I wonder if Sister Xin is going to be a busybody today, or…’

The princess said angrily, “I wanted this box of snow lotus! I bought it for my brother!”

The girl smiled mockingly. “That invalid…”

The princess’s face immediately darkened. “Who are you calling a sickly person! Do you believe that I’ll tell His Majesty!”

There was no panic in the girl’s eyes. She asked her servant, “Did I say anything just now?”

The maidservant from before smiled and said, “Miss didn’t say anything. We didn’t hear a word!”

The shopkeeper lowered his head, clearly not wanting to get involved.

The girl took two steps forward and said to the young princess with a smile, “Sister Xin, I bought this box of snow lotus for Mr. Zhuge. If you know what’s good for you, give it to me. When Mr. Zhuge’s old illness relapses and Father places the blame, I’m afraid your royal family won’t be able to bear the responsibility.”

Su Xiaoxiao asked the young princess, “Who is she?” The princess said in a muffled voice, “My uncle’s daughter.”

Oh, the daughter of the Eldest Prince’s residence.

The girl reached out to take the snow lotus on the table but Su Xiaoxiao beat her to it. “What a coincidence. Mr. Zhuge asked me to buy this box of snow lotus.”

The girl asked suspiciously, “Who are you to Mr. Zhuge? Would Mr. Zhuge let you buy snow lotus?”

Zhuge Qing was a strategist in the Eldest Prince’s residence. It was obvious that she would not be related to the people in the Princess’s residence.

Su Xiaoxiao opened her mouth.. “I’m his sister!”
