She stepped forward and slapped the door twice. Hearing movement from inside, she turned and ran away.
Yan Jue's eyelids twitched as he subconsciously murmured, "Xiao Tian Xin … It's you... Xiao Tian Xin... "
He raised his hand and groped wildly, trying to grab something.
The gatekeeper opened the door and saw Yan Jue lying on the ground. He was shocked and quickly picked him up, "Your Highness! "Your Highness!"
"Someone come quickly, your highness has fainted."
Very quickly, someone from the Duke Palace came out and carried Yan Jue in. The person who was hiding in the alleyway slowly walked out, and the moonlight shone on her body, forming a halo of light.
She stood silently in the snow, letting the snow fall on her shoulders, giving her a sense of independence.
After seeing Yan Jue being carried in by servants, she turned around and abruptly left.
"Xiao Tian Xin, don't leave. Come back, don't be angry at me, don't leave, Xiao Tian Xin …"
The butler heard every word that Yan Jue was mumbling and felt a little helpless. He knew that the prince would still not be able to let him go, since tonight was a reunion day.
"Is the doctor here yet?"
"He should be here soon."
Because it was New Year's Eve, the Duke's Mansion specially granted leave to some servants, and prefecture doctor also gave leave to go home. At this moment, they were on the street to ask for a doctor, but they didn't know if they could get one.
However, the person who came out to invite them was someone from the Royal Mansion, so the doctor naturally didn't dare to be negligent. Very soon, a doctor was invited into the mansion.
When the doctor heard his prince's murmurs again and again, he thought that he had fallen out of love and took Yan Jue's pulse as well.
"Doctor, how is the prince?"
"His Royal Highness spat out blood due to the lack of Qi, and he also drank a lot of wine tonight. That's the reason for the situation."
With that, the doctor looked at Yan Jue hesitantly, then pulled the butler to the side and said: "Master, the depressed atmosphere is a heart disease, if the heart disease is not removed, then it will be hard to cure the disease. Also, you must not let the prince drink again, if the prince really likes that lady, then you have to coax her, as for girls, they are all coaxed, with the prince's elegant looks and his noble identity, who wouldn't like him, you can just coax the king, coaxing the girl, it will be difficult to cure the prince."
The housekeeper heard the doctor's long speech and understood something from his words. He helplessly shook his head and smiled bitterly, "If only Your Highness was lovelorn."
He glanced at Yan Jue, and then invited the doctor to the door, "The Duke's wife has passed away, so the Duke is unable to calm down. I am worried that if this goes on, the Duke will not be able to hold on.
The doctor's face revealed a trace of sympathy when he heard the situation, "So it's like this, Your Highness is also a sentimental person, the so-called heart still needs to be treated, Your Highness' depression will not be resolved, after a long time, I'm afraid the medicine will not be able to cure it. Your Highness' lover has left, and for a while, I'm afraid it will be very difficult to get Your Highness to come out."
He quickly grabbed the doctor and asked him if he had any other methods. The doctor shook his head and casually said, "Unless that young lady comes back to life, or the prince has taken a fancy to another girl, the prince can only endure it. It depends on the prince's own good fortune."
"Nonsense! Your highness is blessed by the heavens, you will definitely be fine. "
Hearing that, the butler was anxious and angry, but he suppressed his temper and had his servants send the doctor out, and upon hearing that Yan Jue was still calling for Liu Tian Xin, the butler was so anxious that his eyes turned red.
The morning of the second day, the butler rushed to King Jing Palace. At that time, Yan Yuan and his wife had just woken up, and on the first day of the new year, they were celebrating.
Liu Ruo Qing and Yan Yuan were playing with their son in the yard, seeing that Prince Lu's Mansion's butler came in quickly from the outside, they knew that it had something to do with Yan Jue.
"This old servant greets Prince Jing, Crown Princess Jing."
"Did eighth brother ask you to come?"
A trace of worry subconsciously flashed across Liu Ruo Qing's eyes.
Seeing that, the old steward's face reddened. "Crown Prince, wangfei, the two of you should go and advise my prince. The doctors say that he won't make it."
The expressions of Yan Yuan and his wife changed at the same time, and they asked what happened.
The butler then truthfully told the two of them what had happened last night.
The two of them looked at each other, and their faces turned serious at the same time. They had long predicted that eighth brother wouldn't let go so easily. If he did, then eighth brother, who used to be a slob and talked more than he ate, would definitely come back.
"Let's go take a look."
"Yes."
Yan Yuan handed his son over to the wet nurse, and the two followed the butler to Prince Lu's Mansion.
When Yan Jue woke up, he felt a splitting headache, and a sharp pain in his stomach. He frowned and got off the bed, and when the servants came in with hot water, he quickly went to help him, but was stopped.
"This King will do it himself."
He did not want any women other than Xiao Tian Xin to touch him, not even servants.
Thinking about Xiao Tian Xin, Yan Jue's movements suddenly slowed down, her brain seemed to explode, she suddenly recalled the scene when he went back home last night.
Coincidentally, the servant gave a towel to Yan Yuan and passed it to him, but Yan Jue caught hold of his wrist, the strength was so strong that the servant girl was so scared that she did not even dare cry. "Prince …"
"Who took me into the house last night?"
"Last night, your highness fainted at the door. It was the gatekeeper who brought you in."
Yan Jue's gaze dimmed a little, but he did not give up. "You didn't see anyone else?"
"No, no."
Yan Jue put down his hands disappointedly, he took the towel from the servant and wiped his face. He put on his clothes and walked out of the room.
It was the first day of the new year, and the weather was just right. The sunlight was warm on the ground, and early in the morning, the servants had already swept all the snow in the courtyard clean. When Yan Jue walked out of his room, he did not feel much cold.
He quietly recalled what happened last night. He felt that Xiao Tian Xin had returned, and when he fell at the door, Xiao Tian Xin was shaking him, and he tried with all her might to open her eyes and grab her. But she had left again.
Was he really dreaming? However … Why did he think it was so real?
Unwilling to give up, he still wanted to go to the door and take a look, in an attempt to find some clues.
Last night, it snowed so heavily that there must be footprints outside of the Duke Palaces. He hurriedly walked outside, half of the snow outside the door had been swept away, and the rest of the place was covered with a layer of snow. Although there were footprints, they were not the only ones on this street.
