When Yun Ling scraped off all the rotten flesh on her back and began to wipe the sweat from her back with a handkerchief, Liang Chongyue's clenched teeth loosened slightly and she let out a long sigh.

"Your Highness, I am going to apply medicine to you."

Upon hearing this, Liang Chongyue clenched her teeth again, which had just been loosened. The teeth marks were clearly visible on her thin lips that had been bitten red.

The moment the powder was sprinkled, Liang Chongyue straightened her back in pain. The injury lasted for more than a month, during which time she had to climb mountains and swim across rivers, and could only endure the pain.

Now she only hoped that the wound would be mostly healed before she went to war, at least the wound would not open when the army attacked.

"Your Highness, the medicine on the wound has been applied. Please stand up so that I can bandage you."

The medicine in the system mall is still useful, but it is too irritating. Liang Chongyue’s wound is now burning with pain, but it is much better than the previous excruciating pain.

Liang Chongyue sat up with his upper body naked. Yun Ling quickly bandaged his wound and helped him get dressed.

After putting on her inner garments, Liang Chongyue sat on the bed for a while before getting up. She saw Yunling packing up her medicine box and coming over with a clothes rack. On it were undershirts, skirts, padded jackets... seven or eight pieces of clothing, all of which needed to be worn.

"Just any coat will do, something thick."

Yun Ling wanted to say that this was against etiquette, but when she saw that His Highness had severe back pain, she pushed the shelf back and found a thicker coat for His Highness to wear.

After Liang Chongyue was dressed, she lay on the chaise longue. Soon, plates of delicious food were placed on the table.

Liang Chongyue ate while listening to Ping An's report:

"Your Highness, there was a plague at the border. All the eagles used to carry messages died before they could even leave Qizhou. I found a seriously ill eagle, deciphered the message on it, and then braved the snowstorm to return to the capital."

Liang Chongyue paused holding the meat, looked up at Ping An, and thought of the blue-eyed madman. Her intuition told her that the plague at the border must be related to that madman.

"Go check the system to see if the scumbag dad has received any news."

The system just took two bites of the big bone and started working. It was still chewing the meat in its mouth, and its two small eyes narrowed speechlessly.

Upon hearing that a plague had broken out at the border, Liang Chongyue lost all appetite.

Looking at the table full of delicious food, I couldn't eat anything and had no appetite at all.

"Your Highness, please use a little more. It's cold today, so the plague won't spread too quickly. The situation may not be as critical as you think."

When Yun Ling saw that His Highness's chopsticks stopped, she immediately picked up a few more pieces of meat from the plate in front of His Highness and looked at His Highness's increasingly pointed face with heartache.

"Host, my scumbag father probably doesn't know yet that Feiying died on the way. My uncle and the others also sent someone to deliver an urgent report back to the capital, but it's definitely not as fast as before."

As the system spoke, it sent the current situation at the border and the location of the soldiers delivering the urgent report to the panel.

Liang Chongyue looked at a small red dot on the panel that was still far away from the capital. The border was now windy and snowy, and the roads were difficult to travel. Not to mention that there were soldiers who had escaped from the northern border and were stranded at the border. It was already a huge task to send out the urgent report.

"The system went to buy medicine to fight the plague."

After Liang Chongyue gave the system her instructions, she lowered her head and concentrated on eating. If the border was in chaos because of the plague, the attack on the northern border would have to be shelved, and her original plan would have been scrapped.

Now it is a luxury to be able to sit down and have a meal in peace and quiet.

When Yun Ling saw His Highness starting to eat, the knot in her heart slowly loosened a little. When she turned her eyebrows slightly and looked at Ping An, the knot in her heart slowly receded again.

She had been with His Highness for many years, so how could she not understand that if Ping'an was telling the truth, His Highness should eat an extra bite now so that when all the things come his way, his body won't be worn down by them.

Yunling could do nothing but keep picking up some of His Highness's favorite dishes.

"Host, I don't know what to buy. Without the plague test results, I can't prescribe the right medicine. If I buy the wrong medicine, it may not be effective. Besides, once you spend your luck, you can't get it back."

The system's words made sense. Liang Chongyue swallowed the food in his mouth, raised his eyes, looked at Ping An and said:

"Do you still have the urgent information from the eagle?"

"I kept it, but I don't know if it got wet on the way back to Beijing, so it's a little unclear."

As he spoke, Ping An took out a small leather bag from his arms and placed it in front of His Highness.

Liang Chongyue looked at the leather bag in front of her, which was not even half the size of her palm. It was indeed something used by eagles to deliver messages at the border.

This small leather bag has a good waterproof effect and is not easy to break, but my uncle and others probably didn't expect that the eagle died before it flew out of Qizhou.

If Jiang Ping'an had not stayed in Qizhou, it would have taken an unknown amount of time for the news of the plague outbreak at the border to reach the capital.

Liang Chongyue reached out and picked up the small leather bag, looked it over, and placed it in front of Yunling:

"Go and translate it. You don't need to translate it in its entirety, just the general meaning."

Yun Ling took the small leather bag and retreated. Liang Chongyue thought for a moment and said to Ping An:

"Get ready. I'll take you to the palace to see the emperor after dinner."

In the current situation, the game between Liang Chongyue and her scumbag father is suspended. She wants to sit on the throne of the world. If the world is not good, it will be boring to sit on the throne.

Liang Chongyue had never been in such a hurry to eat when he was at the border. The food in the north was not very oily, and his stomach was shrunk by hunger.

She felt so full after eating just one and a half bowls of rice. If her scumbag father hadn't sent a cook over, she would definitely be even thinner than she is now.

"Your Highness, I have already translated it."

Liang Chongyue took the paper handed to him by Yunling. The ink on it had not yet dried. The general meaning was the same as what Ping'an said. Yunling had already translated all the content that could be seen clearly.

"Put everything away. These dishes have been taken away."

After Liang Chongyue rinsed her mouth with tea, Ping An and his men took away the meal she had eaten.

She and Yunling were the only ones left on the second floor. They had to put on the clothes that they didn't want to wear just now, one by one.

"Wear two fewer layers, and it won't be noticeable. Wear too much and it'll hurt the wound."

Yun Ling held the clothes His Highness was going to wear, and took out the two lightest ones with a distressed look:

"I can only take out these two. It's freezing outside, and the wound on your back is very deep. Now is the time when inflammation and fever are most likely to occur. You must be careful and pay attention."

Liang Chongyue already had the idea of going to the border again, so the matter of attacking the northern border could be put aside for the time being.

But the soldiers at the border had fought desperately on the battlefield, and had survived the swords and arrows. She would never allow them to lose their lives in vain because of a plague.
