The concubine enters the palace? The princess empties the palace and goes into exile with the baby

The next day.

At sunrise, the sky turned pale and the sun slowly rose.

After Song Yao and his team had breakfast, they packed up their things and set off towards Longxi.

Song Yao and his companions rode in a carriage, so it wasn't too tiring, but the servants who had to walk were miserable.

There were soldiers behind them, and the carriage in front had no intention of stopping, so they could only grit their teeth and move forward.

Because they had to hurry on their journey, they had no intention of stopping to rest at noon. They ate pancakes when they were hungry and drank water when they were thirsty. It was not until the evening that the servants walking behind could no longer bear it.

Some people in the crowd were grumbling and complaining.

Hearing their words, Huaying turned her head to look at them, then ran to the carriage where Song Yao was riding, "Miss, the servants behind said that their feet were rubbed raw, their legs and feet hurt, and they really can't walk anymore!"

After Song Yao ordered the carriage to stop, the other carriages also stopped.

Song Yao got off the carriage and walked in front of the servants, frowning slightly. "Everyone, I'm sorry. I was so busy on my way that I forgot how you felt. Let's stop here today. Everyone, sit down and have a good rest."

Song Liangji walked up to her and said dissatisfiedly, "It's only the evening hour. We can walk for another half an hour, and then we can reach Longxi in three days. If you delay like this, we may not be able to arrive within three days!"

Song Qian said: "Song Yao, Dongdong has a fever, we can't stop!"

Song Qian's wife, Feng Yingying, said, "Song Yao, Dongdong is still young. If this fever continues, I'm afraid his brain will be damaged. We must go to Longxi quickly. Otherwise, if something happens to him, what will I do?"

Dongdong is five years old and Fanfan is seven years old. They are both the sons of Song Qian and Feng Yingying.

They only have these two sons. If anything happens to them, Feng Yingying will hate Song Yao for the rest of her life!

Old Madam Song came over and looked at Song Yao and said, "Qingli, Dongdong is your nephew, and he's still so young. If anything happens to him, our Song family will lose a child for nothing. Qingli, let's keep going."

Old Madam Song was holding a string of Buddhist beads in her hand. She usually ate vegetarian food and chanted Buddhist scriptures, and she also enshrined a Buddha statue at home.

Song Yao thought that such a pious person would be kind-hearted, but she didn't expect that in her eyes there were only the descendants of the Song family, and she didn't take these servants seriously at all!

There were many people around, and Song Yao didn't want to argue with them, so she looked at the servants and said, "Rest here today. No need to rush. I'll go see if there's a village nearby. If there's a doctor in the village, I'll buy some medicine for you."

After saying that, Song Yao looked at Song Qian and said, "The child's fever should not be underestimated. If we keep on traveling and the child doesn't get treatment, it will only put him in greater danger! The carriage is hot and stuffy, and the air is not circulating. It will do more harm than good for the child to stay there for too long."

"First, take him out and let him lie down in a well-ventilated place. I asked my brother to buy some medicine. I'll go find two herbs and boil them first."

Song Yao's identity in modern times is a doctor of botany. She knows many herbs and their functions. She can simply reduce fever and treat colds and heat.

She ignored Song Qian and the others and walked up to Song Zizhou. "Brother, where is the medicine I asked you to buy?"

Song Zizhou brought Song Yao to the mule cart loaded with medicine. He glanced at Song Qian in the distance and asked, "Why are you still helping him save his son when they treated you like this?"

Song Yao looked at him with a smile in her eyes, "Children are innocent. You shouldn't take your hatred for adults out on them."

She is a person who knows right from wrong and will not vent her dissatisfaction with adults on her children.

This is her thinking, and she wonders if others will think the same way as her if they encounter difficulties in the future.

"Ok."

Song Zizhou didn't say anything else. He then untied the rope that tied the oilcloth. After lifting the oilcloth, Song Yao saw four large red boxes placed neatly on the mule cart.

Song Zizhou explained, "The herbs you asked me to buy are all here. Please look for them."

"Brother, you are so reliable!" Song Yao smiled at him, then opened one of the boxes and looked for herbs that could clear away heat, detoxify, and relieve symptoms of fever.

Song Zizhou scratched the back of his head and laughed shyly, "You ordered me to do it, and as your brother, I must do it well!"

"found it."

Song Yao took out two bags of medicine with names written on them, namely honeysuckle and bupleurum.

I have to say, her brother is really good at his job. Look, the cloth bag containing the medicine has the name of the medicine written on it.

Song Zizhou said, "Take the medicine over. I'll cover it with the oilcloth."

"Row!"

Song Yao walked up to Song Qian, took out some honeysuckle and bupleurum from the medicine bag and handed it to Song Qian, "Go and boil the medicine. I'll go see if there are any villages around."

Dongdong was already lying on the ground outside. His little face was red and his eyebrows were tightly wrinkled. It was obvious that he looked very uncomfortable.

It seems that the couple still listened to the advice.

Song Qian took the medicine she handed over, said nothing, and asked the servants to boil the medicine.

Song Mingxuan and Song Qing walked up to Song Yao.

Song Qing said: "Ayao, it's not safe for you to go alone as a girl. Let's go with you."

"Okay." Song Yao was not polite. After Huaying handed her a sword, she left with Song Qing and the others.

They followed the traces of human movement and searched for an hour before finally finding a village called Anyi Village.

Song Yao and the others entered the village, but it was only three quarters past ten. However, they did not see any houses in the village with candles lit.

The whole village was pitch black, and apart from the chirping of cicadas, they could not hear any sound from people or animals.

Song Qing frowned. He followed Song Mingxuan closely and said in a trembling voice, "Mingxuan, why is there no one here? Could it be... haunted?"
