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

Old Man Xu said seriously, "Yulong, don't worry. Since I've accepted this job, I will continue to cure you. Don't give up. I'm a doctor. As long as you don't give up, I'll have a chance to save you."

Lin Yulong and the others also knew that Old Man Xu was a doctor, but he had been busy here for several days, and they had to take medicine every day.

If this medicine had some effect, it wouldn't matter to them, but the key point is that they took so many medicines and there was no effect at all.

Even if Old Man Xu had the perseverance, they didn't have that much time to wait.

The older man, named Chen Deyong, said, "Doctor Xu, we appreciate your kindness, but I'm afraid there's nothing you can do about this matter. Just... give up and stop wasting your time on us."

Old Man Xu sighed slightly. He looked at Chen Deyong and said, "Brother, if you all give up, then what's the point of me trying again? If you still want to live, if you want to save other people, then listen to me. Give me another chance, and I will definitely save you!"

He handed the medicine in his hand to Chen Deyong, "Brother, this is the medicine I prepared today. The prescription is very different from the previous one. Try it again, and don't give up!"

Chen Deyong sighed, took the medicine handed to him by Old Man Xu, and drank it.

Old Man Xu poured medicine for the other two people. After they drank the medicine, Chen Deyong took the medicine bowl.

After letting them rest, he left the cave and returned to the tent.

Not long after, Song Zizhou came to deliver food.

Song Zizhou didn't go to deliver the meal immediately. He entered the tent and asked, "Old man, how is it? Did the medicine you gave me last time work?"

Old Man Xu was still working on the next prescription. When he heard Song Zizhou's words, he looked up at him and said helplessly, "I've already developed two prescriptions, but neither of them worked at all. I made another one today and boiled the medicine for them to take, but I don't know if it will work this time."

Song Zizhou frowned, "This is the third prescription, right?"

Old Man Xu nodded. "Well, this is already the third prescription. The one in my hand now is the fourth. I don't mind it, but I'm just worried that they will lose confidence."

Old Man Xu is in good health now. As long as he has this confidence, he can continue to study prescriptions and prepare and decoct medicines for them to take.

But he was afraid that they would lose this confidence.

You know, confidence is more important than perseverance. Without confidence, people will have no hope. Without hope, their current situation is no different from waiting to die.

A doctor is like a caring parent to his patients, so Old Man Xu wanted to save them and didn't want them to die.

Song Zizhou asked, "Did they drink the medicine you prepared this time?"

Old Man Xu nodded. "They drank, but they all looked listless."

"Of course they're all feeling pretty bad right now, so it's normal for them to be listless," Song Zizhou said. "Old man, please continue researching the prescription. I'll go deliver the meal first."

"Row!"

After Song Zizhou put down Old Man Xu's meal, he went to the cave.

When they arrived at the cave, Song Zizhou placed the food in front of them.

They were all listless at first, but when they saw the food coming, they immediately became energetic.

Although Song Zizhou often brought them meals in the past few days, they were like eggplants hit by frost and wilted the previous times, but this time, they were very energetic.

Song Zizhou stood up and said to Lin Yulong and the others, "Eat more. The old man is already researching another prescription. Don't worry, he will definitely cure you."

Lin Yulong looked at Song Zizhou and said, "Brother Song, there's something I don't understand. We have no reason to be with you, so why did you take such a big risk to save us? And why do you still send us food every day?"

Song Zizhou looked at Lin Yulong and said without hesitation, "To be honest, we were going to go through Liuhe County and then to Youyang, but now there's a plague in Liuhe County, and the other small road is blocked, so we can't get through. So, we have no choice but to develop medicine. After we cure you, we won't be in any danger when we pass through Liuhe County. We do this for us, and for you."

Upon hearing this, Chen Deyong said, "Don't you make your clothes out of oilcloth? And the mask you're wearing, if you're dressed like this and pass through Liuhe County, you'll be fine!"

Song Zizhou looked at Chen Deyong and said, "Old man, you don't know. We have a lot of people and we have horse-drawn carriages and mule-drawn carriages. We can dress up, but what about the mule-drawn carriages and horse-drawn carriages? My sister said the air is full of plague. If we just pass through like this, the plague will be on the carriages and mules. When we leave Liuhe County, it will definitely be risky to come into contact with them. Besides, there are elderly people and children in our team. We can't take that risk."

Chen Deyong heard what Song Zizhou said, "So that's what's going on. If there are elderly people and children around, we really can't take risks."

"Yes." Song Zizhou nodded. "Just wait and see. The old man will definitely be able to research a useful prescription to save you."

Chen Deyong hummed, "Okay, then we'll wait for him. If we don't wait, we'll be dead anyway. If we wait for him, maybe we still have a chance to survive."

"That's right." Song Zizhou stood up and said, "Old man, please take your time to eat. I'll bring you food tomorrow."

"Okay!" Chen Deyong said politely, "I'm really sorry to have you bring me food every day."

"No way, I'm leaving." Without waiting for them to speak, Song Zizhou left the cave and returned to the tent where Old Man Xu was.

Old Man Xu was studying a prescription. Seeing Song Zizhou coming, he asked, "Are they having dinner?"

Song Zizhou nodded, "Yes, I think they are eating very happily."

Hearing this, Old Man Xu was stunned for a moment. He looked at Song Zizhou with a slight surprise, "You said they were eating very happily?"

Song Zizhou didn't understand why he asked that, so he nodded. "Yes, I think they have a good appetite, especially the kid. I think he eats very happily."

Hearing this, Old Man Xu laughed out loud. He said excitedly, "You don't know, yesterday and the day before yesterday, they had no appetite at all. They only ate a few bites and then stopped eating. I didn't expect that today they actually have appetites!"

Hearing what Old Man Xu said, Song Zizhou hurriedly asked, "Does that mean they are recovering?"

"Compared with before, since they can eat now, it proves that they have recovered their appetite. In this way, it proves that the medicine I gave them today is effective!" Old man Xu was a little excited, because he had been busy for so long and finally heard good news.
