The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny - Chapter 883

Chapter 883: It’s Good Enough If We Can Stall for Even A Day

There were several charcoal braziers in the room. The smell was a little strong, but there was also a window for ventilation. Otherwise, even if their junior brother did not die of a cold, he would have been poisoned to death by the smoke.

The room was very dark and rather small. However, it was precisely because it was not too big that the heat was even stronger.

It was early autumn. The weather was somewhat cool, but it was still somewhat hot during the day. In this kind of weather, they had to build a fire to keep him warm. It was clear how severe the cold their junior brother was suffering.

They approached the bedside and saw the person lying on the bed clearly.

The blankets were so thick that they almost covered his head.

However, even so, this person was still trembling slightly. His face was snow-white. Zhao Xuanjing touched his forehead and found out that Sang You’s entire body seemed to be in an ice cave. It was indeed very cold!

“Senior Sister, do you see anything?” Zhao Xuanjing turned his head to ask her.

Xie Qiao shook her head. “I thought there might be something dirty, but there’s nothing. It’s clean.”

It was just a little strange.

Her junior brother was pretty good-looking. His eyebrows were sharp and long, and his nose bridge was high. His light was indeed invisible now, but his head was dome-shaped and his glabella was straight. His bones looked like he would live long. Such a person should not have a short life.

This illness was indeed very strange.

The imperial physician went forward to check.

He checked his pulse over and over again, sometimes looking at his eyes and sometimes looking at his tongue. He was busy for a long time.

In the end, he was confused. “It is indeed cold air in the body, and it is very serious. It is… strange.”

“How strange?” Zhao Xuanjing asked.

“Your Highness, normally, people who have cold air in their body would feel uncomfortable and shiver, but they would not be like Young Master Sang, whose whole body seems to be frozen…”

It was normal for people to feel cold in their hands and feet, but Sang You… How could they feel the cold just by touching him? He was practically a block of ice!

“Is there any way to treat him?” Old Master Li immediately asked.

Apart from his eldest disciple, he could find flaws in all of his disciples. They had been scolded by him for many years.

However, no matter how much he scolded them, they were still his beloved! Now, he was going to let him die?!

“Well…” the imperial physician sighed, “Your Highness, forgive my incompetence. I can only give an ordinary prescription for treating cold diseases. It is effective for people with a common cold, but not for Young Master Sang. However… There are many strange diseases in the world. If medical skills don’t work, why don’t you try witchcraft?”

As he said that, the imperial physician carefully glanced at Xie Qiao.

He was not stirring trouble. He said this because he sincerely wanted to save the person.

Before he became an imperial physician, he had accumulated experience among the people. He had seen children who were sick to death and left him helpless. After the witch prayed, they slowly recovered.

It was better to believe in something than not. It was not wrong to try.

Anyway, he had no choice now, and the other imperial physicians were probably the same.

Old Master Li knew the true identity of his eldest disciple, and he also knew that she was in poor health and needed to accumulate good karma.

Hearing the imperial physician’s words, he also looked at Xie Qiao. “Do you have any solutions?”

“Teacher, I don’t see anything dirty on Third Junior Brother’s body at the moment, so it’s definitely useless to capture the ghouls and monsters. At most… I can think of ways to protect his soul and stall for time.” Xie Qiao was also helpless.

How could she stop the King of Hell from taking someone’s life?

“It’s good enough if we can stall for even a day. Let’s investigate it carefully again.” Zhao Xuanjing nodded and agreed to let her take action..
