Upon entering the city, Su Rong and Fen Ling did not even have time to change their clothes, they hurried directly to the Duke Residence.
At the Duke Residence at this time, even the Imperial Doctor Xu, resorting to crude methods and operating personally, and the old Duke assisting him, kept busy for a few hours, yet they could not reduce Zhou Gu's fever.
The weather-beaten face of the old Duke had turned white. Unable to bear it, he stepped out of the room and asked the Crown Princess Sheng An, "Hasn't Miss Su arrived yet?"
The Crown Princess Sheng An shook her head.
Crown Prince Yan Huisheng didn't leave either. He had been waiting outside the door. He glanced at the hourglass and asked, "Great Aunt, when was someone sent to the Great Buddha Temple?"
"Not long before you arrived."
Yan Huisheng calculated the time and his eyebrows slightly furrowed, "There must have been some troubles on the road, which caused her delay."
