Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage-Chapter 1363 - 1362: The Past
Chapter 1363: Chapter 1362: The Past
Feng Yexuan was never someone adept at explanations.
Despite years of battlefield experience, this was his first time confronting villagers in such a manner.
Not being able to fight back felt as though all his abilities had been completely shackled.
"Don’t kill my father! You bad people, you’re all bad people!"
Suddenly, a child picked up something and hurled it toward Feng Yexuan with all his might.
Feng Yexuan’s slender fingers twitched slightly.
Xi Jiu panicked, "Prince! He’s just a child!"
Feng Yexuan’s fingers retreated.
Indeed, just a child.
Just now, he had instinctively acted to defend himself, but his inner strength was too overpowering. If he had blocked the stone, it might have hurt the innocent.
With a sharp "pa," the stone struck Feng Yexuan’s forehead.
The Protective Gang Qi he had released dissipated, and a wound instantly appeared at the corner of the War God’s forehead, blood gushing out freely.
"Prince!" Xi Jiu and Leng Ji rushed over.
The villagers, too, were terrified. For a moment, they froze, not knowing what to do.
Rumor had it that he was the War God from Beiming—the matchless, noble Prince!
They... they had injured the Prince...
"Atong, Atong... Stop, hold back." Suddenly, a hoarse voice rang out from behind the guard squad led by Xi Jiu and Leng Ji.
The child named Atong still held a second stone in his hands.
Upon hearing the voice, his grip loosened, and the stone fell to the ground.
"Father, father..." The child rushed forward.
The guards immediately parted to create a path. Atong’s father, supported by a young physician, was walking slowly toward them.
"Atong, don’t go over there!" Atong’s uncle chased after him but dared not get too close.
Atong’s father had been stricken with the deadly epidemic and sent to this place because his condition was so severe. Truth be told, none of them had much hope; they all believed that patients sent here had little chance of making it out alive.
But now... Looking at him, although Atong’s father still appeared frail, his spirit had improved remarkably?
How could this be?
"Atong, come back now." The uncle still worriedly called out.
But Atong, yearning for his father, didn’t listen and had already run forward, throwing his arms around his father’s arm.
"Atong..."
"He’s fine now."
The woman’s voice carried a wearied rasp yet remained clear and bright.
Princess Chu Qianli!
The guards quickly stepped aside.
It was indeed the Princess!
Chu Qianli walked over to Feng Yexuan’s side and caught sight of the blood sliding down his forehead. Her heart clenched abruptly.
Yet at this moment, she had no time to address it.
Her gaze shifted to the villagers, her voice low yet resolute: "I’ve already developed a miracle medicine to combat the epidemic. The trials faced by Xinhua Village will soon be over!"
...
The patients were truly recovering.
After the fever broke, this was the first time they emerged from their high fevers.
Once the fevers subsided, their spirits gradually picked up. Many who had previously been confined to their beds could now sit up.
Those who couldn’t even keep down porridge before were now able to drink and even eat small portions of food.
No more high fevers. They were truly recovering.
"It’s the Princess’s new medicine that saved us all!"
"The Princess is our savior! She’s incredible!"
Subsequently, Chu Qianli continued preparing the medicine and began distributing it to other patients.
The most severely ill patients in one area were the first test group. By the second batch, she had enhanced the formula with a few additional ingredients, and the patients’ reactions to the medicine became noticeably less intense.
By the third afternoon, the situation in Xinhua Village had completely turned for the better.
Everyone’s spirits lifted, yet just then, Chu Qianli had finally received the message from her senior brother.
