Chapter 395 Grandma is fine, she's just old and useless
Jun Feimo approached slowly, his deep and magnetic voice echoing softly in the air, "Xi'er."
This call seemed to have a magical power, causing Chu Zixi to pause slightly. She slowly raised her head, and the originally plain expression on her beautiful face was instantly replaced by a surprised smile. "How come you are back so soon? What happened?"
Jun Feimo couldn't help but frown slightly, "Xi'er, I want to go to Fu'an County."
A trace of doubt flashed across Chu Zixi's eyes, "Fu'an County? What happened?"
Jun Feimo took a deep breath and his expression became serious. "Many children have disappeared in Fu'an County and several surrounding counties. The people my brother sent to investigate all died in miserable conditions. I have to go and take a look. This matter is of great importance and cannot be missed. I must go and find out the truth myself."
When Chu Zixi heard this, she was shocked and a trace of worry flashed in her eyes. "Well, I'll go with you to see what's going on."
At this moment, Na Yuda walked in slowly, bowed respectfully, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Princess, someone from the Duke of Huguo's Mansion came to tell you that the old lady is ill, and I came here specially to ask Princess to come and see her."
When Chu Zixi heard the news, her brows knitted tightly together like strings being tightened, with a puzzled look on her face, "But is this illness serious? Wasn't grandma fine yesterday? Why did she suddenly get sick today?"
Yuda lowered his head slightly and replied softly: "I heard that he accidentally caught a cold while enjoying the cool air outside last night."
Jun Feimo, who was standing by, heard the news. He gently touched Chu Zixi's head and said, "Xi'er, the matter in Fu'an County is very urgent. I must leave immediately to deal with it. The old lady of the Duke of Huguo is sick now. You should go to see her. You don't have to go to Fu'an County with me. Just wait for me to come back."
Chu Zixi looked at Jun Feimo quietly, with a determined light in her eyes. She nodded slightly, "Okay, then, let me go see my grandmother. When she is better, I will go to Fu'an County to find you immediately."
Jun Feimo lowered his head and gently kissed Chu Zixi on the forehead. The kiss was gentle and affectionate. "Okay." He replied in a low voice, then turned around and hurried away with Tianyi, Anyi and other followers.
Chu Zixi returned to the room, changed her clothes, then steadily picked up the medicine box and left the room.
At this time, Yu Da had been waiting outside the door for a long time. When he saw Chu Zixi coming out, he hurriedly said respectfully, "Princess."
"Master Yu, let's go to the Duke of Huguo's Mansion." Chu Zixi nodded slightly.
"Yes." Yu Da hurriedly took the medicine box and followed Chu Zixi out of the palace.
When they arrived at the gate, the carriage had already been parked there quietly, and the decorations on the carriage were still gorgeous and solemn.
Chu Zixi stepped gently onto the carriage. She sat in the carriage gracefully, closed her eyes slightly, and began to meditate.
Yu Da drove the carriage towards the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion. Time passed quietly, and the carriage finally stopped slowly in front of the gate of the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion.
Chu Zixi slowly got off the carriage carrying the medicine box. Yu Da followed closely behind her, took the medicine box, and the two walked towards the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion together.
When the guards at the door saw Chu Zixi approaching, they all bowed immediately, their uniform movements showing their respect and awe for her, and they shouted in unison: "Princess."
Chu Zixi nodded gently in response, then walked into the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion calmly.
Passing through the winding corridor that looked like a maze, Chu Zixi ran straight to the courtyard where the old lady lived.
Before she had even stepped into the house, the dull and rapid coughs hit her heart like a heavy hammer, making her heart suddenly tighten.
She didn't have time to think about it and quickly quickened her pace and walked in.
The scene that came into view was the old lady lying quietly on the bed. Her originally rosy face had now turned as pale as snow, as if it would disappear with a slight touch of the vicissitudes of time. Her bloodshot eyes were filled with deep fatigue, as if carrying endless pain and torment.
"Grandma..." Chu Zixi opened her red lips slightly, her voice as gentle and caring as the first ray of sunshine in the morning, gently calling the old woman on the bed.
The old lady seemed to hear her voice, and a faint but bright light flashed in the dim depths of her eyes, as if she had found a glimmer of hope in the darkness.
"Ahem... Xier is here. I've already told you that this is just a minor problem. Why did you invite Xier back? Don't make a fuss just because of me."
Qin and Ruan looked at each other, and a helpless smile flashed in each other's eyes, and then they both shook their heads helplessly.
Ruan came forward slowly and said softly, "Xi'er, your grandmother accidentally caught a cold last night. Mother is old and not as healthy as she used to be. We are worried that she will suffer, so we quickly asked someone to invite you back to take a good look at your grandmother so that we can feel more at ease."
After hearing this, the old lady's already weak body seemed to be touched, and she coughed violently again, as if she was going to cough out her lungs.
"Is this mansion still short of a doctor who can treat illnesses? You guys are the same. You only know how to make trouble. You have to trouble Xier for such a small matter. You are really ignorant! Xier, grandma is fine. She is just old and useless."
Yun Yubing was extremely anxious when she saw this. She quickly stepped forward and gently patted the old lady on the back, constantly comforting her, "Grandma, don't worry. Xier is a skilled doctor. With her here, you will definitely get better faster and suffer less."
Yun Mengsi on the side also nodded to Chu Zixi and said, "Yes, grandma, cousin Xier's medical skills are much better than those doctors."
Chu Zixi looked at the old lady like this, she slowly walked to the bedside, and Yun Yubing saw this, she immediately stood up and made way for her.
Chu Zixi sat beside the bed. She reached out and held the old lady's dry, sticky hands tightly. Her hands were covered with traces of time. She said softly, "How can I trouble you to treat my grandmother? This is my duty."
The old lady felt the warmth coming from Chu Zixi's palm, and a warm current suddenly surged into her heart. She nodded repeatedly, saying, "Ahem... OK, OK, OK, our Xier is capable and promising." After saying that, a gratified smile appeared on her face.
Chu Zixi felt the old lady's pulse. Her expression became extremely focused as she carefully felt the beating of her grandmother's pulse. The faint rhythm transmitted information vaguely under her fingertips.
