The Emperor of Qin gave six handsome men

Chapter 312

The days passed by quickly, and the biting cold wind brought a hint of chill, wantonly invading the earth. The sudden drop in temperature caught many people off guard and they all caught the cold.

Especially the elderly and frail elders and young and delicate children could not resist the invasion of this cold. For a time, the demand for medicines to treat colds in the whole Qin Dynasty increased sharply, causing such medicines to become extremely scarce.

In the vast expanse of northern land, there stood a seemingly ordinary house alone. However, who would have thought that the once stunning and highly respected Princess Huayang was lying in this house?

Now, she was dying of a cold. The only one who stayed by her side was the maid who grew up with her. Time passed quickly, and the maid who was young at the time had now entered middle age and became a middle-aged woman.

"A Xiang, why hasn't the doctor come yet?"

In the past, Princess Huayang would be unhappy if she felt a little unwell, even if the doctor was late for a quarter of an hour. But at this moment, she has long lost her former noble status, prominent position and huge wealth. Those who once flattered her now avoid her like a plague. However, she firmly believes that one day she will be able to return to Xianyang City and let those who betrayed her crawl at her feet and be trampled upon.

"Madam, I'm so sorry! Due to the shortage of medicinal materials and the large number of people suffering from colds, the doctors are overwhelmed and can't handle everything." This place is remote and sparsely populated, so the medical conditions are naturally extremely limited. Moreover, the doctors here are mediocre. Although several days have passed, Madam's condition has not improved.

"You should go and urge them again. My throat hurts so much..." Princess Huayang said weakly. Her voice was as faint as a candle in the wind that could go out at any time.

She was afraid of death. She missed the warm and comfortable princess mansion. She regretted why she hated Qin Xingfu. She couldn't figure it out. Was she resentful that Qin Xingfu could get the attention that took away her father and brother, or was she jealous that Qin Xingfu was free and unrestrained and could be herself? She couldn't figure it out. She just felt so cold.

Ah Xiang looked at the woman on the bed, her face flushed and her body burning hot, feeling extremely anxious. She reached out and gently touched the woman's forehead, only to feel a burning sensation on her touch, which made Ah Xiang gasp in surprise.

Looking out the window again, the piled snow was almost above the waist, and the cold wind was howling. However, seeing that the patient's condition was getting more and more critical, Ah Xiang gritted her teeth, quickly put on a thick cotton coat, a hat and gloves, resolutely opened the door, and stepped into the icy and snowy land.

Along the way, Ah Xiang walked forward with difficulty, the cold wind scraped her cheeks like a knife, but she did not slow down at all. Fortunately, not long after she walked, Ah Xiang met the doctor who often treated nearby villagers. As if she had found a life-saving straw, she ran forward with joy, tightly grabbed the doctor's sleeve, and dragged him back.

After returning to the room, the doctor did not bother to exchange pleasantries, but immediately sat down beside the bed to feel the woman's pulse. As time passed, Ah Xiang stood by, clasping her hands together, her palms sweating from nervousness.

Finally, the doctor loosened his fingers, but shook his head helplessly, sighed deeply and said.

"Madam used to use only the finest and most expensive medicines. The medicine I prescribed now has limited efficacy and is no longer useful to her. If you want to cure Madam's illness, you need at least a fifty-year-old old mountain ginseng."

Hearing this, Ah Xiang's heart sank instantly, and her face was full of anxiety.

"Doctor, please do your best to treat her no matter what! If you can save the lady, you will be rewarded handsomely in the future. You will definitely be rewarded!"

Ah Xiang said anxiously, tears flashing in her eyes. The doctor looked at Ah Xiang's anxious look and couldn't help but feel moved.

In fact, when he first learned that he was going to treat this lady, he had some concerns. After all, the other party had a special identity and he might get into trouble if he was not careful. But as a doctor, he couldn't just watch the patient suffer and not do anything, so he decided to try his best.

"Madam, don't worry. I will do my best. But the herbs I have are limited at the moment, and the most scarce one is this old mountain ginseng. Let me write down the prescription first, and then think of other ways."

After that, the doctor picked up a piece of paper and pen and began to write carefully. After a while, a prescription filled with various medicinal materials and dosages appeared in front of Ah Xiang.

The prescription was ready, but there were no herbs. Where could she find them now? She was just a commoner. After sending the doctor away, Ah Xiang walked up to her and said.

"Ma'am, just hang in there, you'll get better."

She had no way to go find medicine, and she didn't even dare to walk far. She had to walk back and forth in the yard to cool herself down, and then go into the house to cool herself down.

Princess Huayang has always been indifferent to other people, but has always been very good to her, and she is willing to risk her life to save her.

Qin Xingfu only went out that once, to Xianyang. After she caught a cold, she never went out again. She didn't see the princes and princesses who came back to visit her. She stayed at home every day, playing with cats and dogs, and accompanying her children.

In this way, the New Year came and the schools were on holiday. After being busy for a whole year, most industries and sectors chose to close down. Only the catering industry was busy as hell.

“Roasted lamb, authentic Xinjiang lamb, fresh and delicious.”

"Raisins, raisins from Xijiang and Beizhou, fragrant and sweet, if they don't taste good, you don't have to pay for them~"

The day before the Chinese New Year, Qin Xingfu and his family finally went out. The children liked the Chinese New Year very much because it was so lively.

Because there were too many people, cars and horses were not allowed to drive on the street. The people on Xingfu Street knew their family's custom, and the whole street came out at once, and the scene was spectacular.

"Mom, it's so lively! I love the Chinese New Year!"

Qin En held Qin Xingfu's hand and spoke, joy written all over his face.

"Okay, hold on to mommy's hand tightly, Qiqi, Wuji, hold on to daddy's hand tightly, don't get lost."

"good!"

The family was just about to pass by a performance venue when a clear and pleasant female voice was heard, attracting the attention of many people.

"Mom, I want to see!"

The adults stood on the roadside holding their children and watched the performance.
