After all, his favoritism was quite obvious.
"Why would I blame you? It's just that you're a boy, and you should stay out of the inner court affairs in the future. Sister knows what to do!"
"Hehe!" Han Tianci chuckled, waiting for Shi Jiayu to serve breakfast.
"Sister, the Commandery Prince's hearing seems to have gotten worse recently," Han Tianci said softly.
Yun Jinnian paused, "After breakfast, I'll take the Commandery Prince's pulse!"
She had a bold idea in her mind, but it might be a bit risky and required discussion with everyone.
Without the Blood Lotus, they had to try whatever methods they could!
Han Tianci hurriedly shook his head, "Sister, you are injured. You should walk less. It's better for the Commandery Prince to come to us!"
Seeing her brother's concern for her, Yun Jinnian felt warmed, "Alright, I'll listen to you!"
The siblings exchanged a smile and then focused on their breakfast.
After breakfast, Han Tianci went to invite Prince Yanjun and Yuwen Ya. After the two arrived, Chu Yu came belatedly.
When he saw Yun Jinnian, Chu Yu's face turned red and when he saw that Yun Jinnian didn't even glance at him, he felt a hint of resentment, pursed his lips, "Jinnian, what do you command us for?"
He tried to appear calm, but his heart was anxious.
After all, he had been rash last night.
But he did not regret it.
Yun Jinnian saw Chu Yu's pretense and was amused. She spoke indifferently, "Regarding the poison in the Commandery Prince's body, I have an idea!"
"What idea?" Yuwen Ya asked.
Prince Yanjun also looked at Yun Jinnian, waiting for her answer.
However, indifferent as he usually was, his celestial demeanor meant that even a scrutinizing inquiry was captivating.
"I have acquired a Spiritual Poisonous Insect, which is full of poison but feeds on the Snow Lotus of Tian Mountain. Accumulated over many years, whatever the insect spits out is surely valuable!" Yun Jinnian said, recalling the time she was bitten by the insect at the bottom of the cliff, making her fluctuate between hot and cold, nearly dying. But when it expelled something, she gradually felt better.
Her whole being even became more perceptive and alert.
Therefore, Yun Jinnian boldly guessed that the substance the Spiritual Poisonous Insect expelled was beneficial.
"..."
Silence.
Minutes later, Chu Yu finally said, "It's worth a try!"
Prince Yanjun nodded his head in agreement.
Yuwen Ya tacitly accepted the idea.
Yun Jinnian exhaled in relief, "Commandery Prince, let me take your pulse first!"
Prince Yanjun nodded slightly, and Yuwen Ya immediately pulled over a small table to place Prince Yanjun's hand upon.
Tongge rolled up Prince Yanjun's sleeve, revealing his wrist on the small table.
Yun Jinnian raised her hand to take Prince Yanjun's pulse, frowning slightly.
Indeed, Prince Yanjun's condition had worsened.
After losing the ability to speak and see, his ears were also problematic, often hearing sounds indistinctly.
They could delay no further.
"Commandery Prince, I will first let your blood and apply acupuncture, then prescribe some medicine mixed with Tian Mountain Snow Lotus for you to take first. I will do my best to research the antidote as quickly as possible!"
Yun Jinnian's voice was clear and calm, yet particularly convincing.
Prince Yan still nodded his head, his expression revealing no trace of perturbation.
Although Chu Yu and Yuwen Ya were anxious inside, they dared not speak much, fearing that talking too much might unsettle Prince Yanjun himself.
Yun Jinnian prescribed the medicine and instructed Tongge to go prepare it, with Jiayu assisting.
With an injured leg bone that made walking difficult, she sat in a chair, carried by Chu Yu and Yuwen Ya, while Hemei, Henuan, and Han Tianci handed things to her at the side.
This round of acupuncture had to be executed with utmost precision, so the room remained eerily silent, even breathing was kept soft, lest they disturb Yun Jinnian.
But Yun Jinnian was already sweating profusely, with sweat soaking her hair and dampening her clothes.
