After the founding of the People's Republic of China, she became a spirit and was punished, and

Every minute, every moment, she didn't want to stop and was eager to reach Huai'an.

Her thighs became bloody due to prolonged friction, but she seemed unaware of it.

If she really couldn't hold on any longer, she would use a little of her spiritual power to nourish the injured part a little bit, as long as it didn't delay her journey.

For this stretch of the journey, Xiyu not only had to hurry on the journey, she also had to send people to notify the provincial governments in various places to prepare medicinal materials, and then leave one person behind to coordinate and arrange the time for the delivery of the medicinal materials.

When she arrived outside Huai'an city, there were only six or seven people left with her.

She was so desperate that even Qi Xi couldn't help but try to persuade her.

[It will be in time to save Yinzhen's life in less than seven days. I'll calculate it for you. There's enough time. Why don't you take a break? ]

Xiyu gritted her teeth and endured the pain on the inside of her thigh. "I'm afraid there will be some accidents on the road, so it's better to get there early."

Several people traveled day and night. When Xiyu saw the red and yellow flags at the entrance of the camp and the soldiers guarding the entrance, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. After rushing all the way, they finally arrived on the fifth day.

She was wearing a slim-fitting Manchu dress. When she dismounted from the horse, her calves trembled slightly and her knees went weak, almost causing her to fall to the ground.

Fortunately, her arms had not yet let go of the horse's neck, and she was able to barely support herself to stand up.

"Who is so bold as to trespass into the camp?"

She led everyone forward quickly, but before they got close to the camp gate, they were stopped by the soldiers guarding the gate.

These soldiers looked nervous, holding weapons, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

Seeing this, she couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart. No wonder these soldiers couldn't recognize and doubted their identities.

After traveling for several days in a row, they looked indeed a little dishevelled. Their clothes were not changed in time and were even torn. Their hair was disheveled and their faces were covered in dust.

At this time, even if they said they were refugees fleeing the city, some people would believe it.

Xiyu took out a token from his sleeve and held it in front of them. The soldier guarding the gate looked at him suspiciously.

After he carefully identified the token, he rubbed his eyes with his hands, looked Xi Yu and others up and down again, and let them go after careful judgment.

"The Emperor's tent is just ahead. Please come this way, Fourth Lady."

The leading soldier sent the few people to their location and then left.

When Liang Jiugong saw her, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes. He took a few steps forward and whispered, "Why are you here?"

Xiyu did not answer his question, but asked instead: "Has the Fourth Master contracted the disease?"

Although he was asking a question, he seemed very sure of the answer to it.

She did not wait for the other party to answer, and continued: "I came to ask the emperor to let me enter the city."

At this time, everyone wanted to avoid entering the city as much as possible, and they wished they could stay as far away from Huai'an City as possible, but her tone was very firm, and she didn't sound like she was joking at all.

Although he didn't understand why she suddenly appeared, Liang Jiugong still admired the Fourth Lady's courage.

He thought for a moment and suggested, "Fourth Lady, His Majesty has something to discuss with the ministers now. Would you like to rest for a while before meeting His Majesty?"

Xiyu was about to refuse, but when she saw the other party's hesitant look, she suddenly realized that her clothes were dirty and her hair was messy, and it was not suitable for her to meet the emperor.

"Thank you for the reminder, Eunuch Liang. Is there any vacant tent for us to rest?"

Hearing this, Liang Jiugong waved his hand towards the place not far away and said, "Xiao Dezi, take the Fourth Lady to the tent where the Fourth Master lives. The rest of you should stay in the tent near Dean Zhao first."

Many imperial doctors followed the Third and Fourth Masters into the city, and there were quite a few empty tents.

"Yes."

Xiao Dezi brought Xiyu to the tent where Yinzhen had lived with ease.

Xiyu pushed open the door and walked in. Perhaps because she left in a hurry, there were still many things scattered inside. She didn't even bring the medicine box she had packed into the city.

She opened the medicine box and fiddled with the porcelain bottles inside with her scarred hands. There were all kinds of medicines in there, except for the specific medicine for treating the plague.

"Fujin, the hot water is here."

Xia Ying, with a tired look on her face, brought in hot water with someone and poured it all into the bathtub.

They had also traveled together for four or five days, and Xiyu couldn't bear to see her busy any longer. "Go wash up first, and then have a good rest. I don't need your help here."

Seeing that she refused, Xiyu stuffed an ointment in her hand and drove her out of the tent, then closed the door.

As her clothes fell off piece by piece, her graceful figure gradually appeared in the air.

She stepped lightly into the bathtub, sat in the water, feeling the warmth and comfort brought by the hot water, and couldn't help but let out a comfortable sigh.

The inner thigh was red and swollen, in stark contrast to the fair and tender skin on other parts of the body. Now soaked in hot water, it caused a tingling pain.

Time was running out, so she didn't dare delay too long. After washing the dirt off her body, she struggled to stand up from the barrel by holding on to the wall.

She stepped out of the tub carefully, afraid of accidentally touching the injured area.

After wiping off the water stains on her body, Xiyu took out an anti-inflammatory and analgesic ointment from the medicine box, applied it carefully and evenly, and then changed into clean clothes.

Xia Ying's voice came from the door, and Xiyu immediately sat down obediently and let her comb her hair.

Unlike in the palace, she wore a slightly plain bamboo green silk skirt with orchid patterns outside, and simply combed her hair into a Yuanbao bun, and inserted two butterfly-shaped silver hairpins.

"Time is running out, let's wait outside."

Her voice was a little hoarse, so she drank some water to moisten her throat and hurried to the outside of Kangxi's tent.

Yinzhen's health value on the system level has continued to decline and has fallen below the red line.

The system keeps reminding me, [Warning! Warning!]

She was annoyed by the noise, but couldn't turn it off.

[Sorry~ The copied system level is too low] The little snake demon's tone was filled with guilt.

Xiyu gritted her teeth and replied, "It's okay."

The little snake spirit shrank back at her wrist and for the first time in its life it couldn't raise its head in front of the little ginseng spirit.

The door of the tent in front of her was opened from the inside, and a group of ministers walked out. She dodged to the side and only stepped into the tent after everyone had left.

"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you. May you be blessed with good health and happiness."

As soon as she entered the door, she knelt on her knees and performed a standard salute with a very respectful attitude.

Kangxi sat on the chair, opened his eyes, and was stunned for a moment when he saw her dressed so simply.

He thought to himself that the fourth son's wife was a sensible person and knew that the situation in the city was not good now and it was not appropriate to dress too ostentatiously.

Although he thought so in his heart, he did not show it on his face. He snorted coldly and said, "You are so brave that you dare to travel such a long distance with only a few subordinates."
