Suddenly, the sky changed and strong winds blew.

"What's going on? It was sunny just now!" The officers frowned and said, "It looks like it's going to rain heavily. We must find a place to take shelter."

"Boss, there is an abandoned Taoist temple ahead, let's go hide there!"

When the group arrived at the Taoist temple, they were already soaked by the heavy rain.

The officials frowned as they watched the rain getting heavier.

"This damn weather, it rains as soon as it says it's going to rain."

Shang Ruoyi looked at the sky. The clouds were very thick. It seemed that the rain would get heavier and heavier and would not stop for a while.

They could barely find some dry firewood nearby that could be used to start a fire, and everyone gathered around the fire, but it was unable to drive away the cold.

People started sneezing non-stop. The old princess was also caught in the rain. She was already old, and she caught a cold, so she immediately started to have a fever.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Qin found that the old princess was burning hot all over and said anxiously, "Mother, you have a fever."

Lin walked forward and touched the old princess' forehead: "It's so hot."

The men of the He family surrounded the old princess, anxious but unable to do anything.

"We don't have any medicinal herbs right now, and Mom's high fever won't go away. I'm afraid it's not good!" He Zhiyuan said in a deep voice.

What he said was not good, and people felt depressed.

If you get sick in such an environment, your life may be in danger.

Zhang sat not far away, did not come forward, and looked at the He family coldly.

Just as He Ning'an was about to go over, Zhang held him down: "They don't care whether we live or die, why are you still going over to join in the fun?"

In the past two days, she and her son He Jinghe were tortured to death by the poison, and the He family did not come to visit them. They did not share the food with them. It would be better if this old woman died, out of sight, out of mind. Who made her keep making things difficult for her?

Shang Ruoyi walked forward and placed her hand on the old princess' pulse.

The He family members looked at each other. Could it be that she really knew medical skills?

Zhang watched from a distance and curled her lips and said, "Pretending."

"Grandma caught a cold, and she was also a little angry from working so hard these days, so she got sick all at once."

"Oh, what shall I do?"

"I hope Mom is okay!"

Shang Ruoyi frowned. The old princess's clothes were still wet, and the cold air entered her body. No medicine could help.

At this time, He Qinian came to the crowd carrying He Jingheng on his back.

He pinched the old princess's wet clothes, and a surge of internal force emerged. In a moment, the old princess's clothes were dry.

Shang Ruoyi blinked her eyes. Awesome! Really awesome!

She took out a white pill from the space and put it into the old princess' mouth while feeding her water.

After pressing the acupoints for a while, the temperature in my body gradually subsided.

"Ruoyi, you actually know medical skills." Qin held her hand and said excitedly, "That's great, that's great."

All the prisoners' eyes were focused on Shang Ruoyi. During the exile, the two most important things were food and a doctor.

The last time Fuzi’s fever subsided, everyone thought it was just a fluke. After all, in Tianshun, most doctors are men.

Once is luck, twice still luck?

The old princess’ fever subsided, obviously thanks to Shang Ruoyi.

They all began to envy Aunt Li who had taken refuge with the He family. At least her food and life were guaranteed.

I wonder if it's too late to seek refuge with her again now?

The rain showed no sign of abating. Shang Ruoyi added a pot to the fire. When she bought the seasonings earlier, she bought a lot of ginger. Shang Ruoyi boiled a large pot of ginger soup. The officers asked all the prisoners to drink a bowl of it to minimize the probability of illness so as not to delay the process.

After all, once they arrived at the land of exile, no one there would care why they were delayed.

After drinking the warm ginger soup, everyone felt warmed up.

There was a hint of gratitude in his eyes when he looked at Shang Ruoyi. If she hadn't bought ginger in advance, how could he get the ginger water to drive away the cold?

Soon it was time for dinner. We still had some supplies left from the trip, but it was raining so heavily and we couldn’t go outside to find food, so we all ate multi-grain cakes today.

Although the He family did not eat delicacies from land and sea during this period, most of their food was fine grains. Food like multi-grain cakes was really difficult to swallow.

At this time, they sighed again that Shang Ruoyi's craftsmanship was really missed.

Shang Ruoyi ate the multi-grain cake in small bites, thinking that she would go to the space to see if the corn had grown. If it was ripe, she could make some roasted corn to eat. If not, she could eat a roasted potato, which was much better than a multi-grain cake.

While eating the multi-grain cake, Zhang cursed Shang Ruoyi again in her heart.

If it weren't for her father, how could the Ding Palace be exiled? Why is she suffering here?

Thinking of this, he ate the multi-grain cake in his mouth more vigorously, and accidentally choked. He lay on the ground and began to roll his eyes. He Ning'an and He Jinghe were so scared that they shouted, "The cake is poisonous!"

"What? Poisonous?"

When the other prisoners heard this, they subconsciously threw the cakes away.

Zhang kept rolling on the ground and beating her chest hard. She looked very scary, but the people from the second house just watched from the side and did not step forward. They were afraid that they would be hurt by Zhang's ferocious appearance.

Seeing this, the other prisoners began to worry whether they would become like this.

The officer heard the commotion and walked over to take a look. Zhang's face was purple and red, and she was obviously having difficulty breathing.

Could it be that he was really poisoned?

Shang Ruoyi didn't want to care at first, but when she thought about the merits she had accumulated from saving Fuzi that led to the upgrade of the space, she was moved.

I had previously set He Jingheng's bones and just treated the old princess. If I save Zhang now, perhaps I could accumulate more merits. I wonder what surprises the next upgrade will bring.

Thinking of this, she pushed aside the crowd and walked forward to take a look. There was no poisoning at all; it was clearly choking from eating too fast.

Is Zhang going crazy with hunger?

Can you eat multi-grain cakes in such big mouthfuls?

He helped Zhang up and patted her back hard with the base of his palm.

After a few times, with a "wow" sound, Zhang vomited out all the food that was choking in her esophagus.

The purple face gradually eased.

Breathing also became smoother.

"Miss Shang, what is she doing..."

"I choked." Shang Ruoyi looked at Zhang, who was sitting on the ground and breathing heavily. "It's just a piece of multi-grain cake. Is there anyone who wants it? Why are you in such a hurry to eat it?"

Everyone looked at her with contempt. She was an official's wife, but she looked like she had never eaten.

Zhang was trying to calm herself down, but she didn't expect that she almost choked to death on a piece of multi-grain cake.

What made her even more heartbroken was that none of her family members came forward to help her.

In the end, it was this unlucky person who saved her.

"Don't think that I will be grateful to you just because you saved me." Zhang said coldly: "You owe me this. If it weren't for your father, we wouldn't have fallen to this point. The debt is owed by the son!"

Shang Ruoyi rolled her eyes at her. If it wasn't for the merit, she wouldn't have saved her.
