C811 811 Sudden syncope

She felt dizzy the moment she got on the horse. If she wasn't agile, she would have fallen off the horse by now.

"Seems like it's really not used to the soil and water."

She muttered under her breath and, not taking it seriously, rode her horse out of Yongning County.

After walking for another half a month, they finally saw the border of Easternum.

She smiled, but her emotions became complicated. For a moment, she even avoided doing what she was about to do.

When they had just reached the city gates, they were stopped by a guard. "Where is the ultimatum for clearing the level?"

As it was the border fortress, it was much more secure for people going in and out of the Easternum.

Liu Ruo Qing had never gone out to the Easternum before, and had never thought of an ultimatum to clear a level, so when she was questioned, she was stumped.

"You still want to clear the ultimatum?"

"Of course, without the written proclamation, who knows if you have some other purpose for entering our Easternum."

A soldier at the side spoke up.

Liu Ruo Qing wanted to say that she was originally someone from the Easternum, but when she opened her mouth, she felt that there was no meaning in saying these words or not.

"Oh."

She was not in the mood to tangle with the city guards, so with a low grunt of assent, she turned and walked back the way they had come.

She frowned and looked at the tall city gate in front of her. If she wanted to fly past the city gate without being discovered by the city guards, it would probably be a little difficult.

Moreover, she discovered that her recent Qing Gong was a bit lacking. Sometimes, when she used her inner force, she would feel pain all over her body.

On the way back, she felt tired and out of breath.

"Looks like the injury from falling from the boundless cliff that time was quite severe."

She rubbed her nose, which was red from the cold, and felt a familiar sticky sensation on her fingertip. She was stunned for a moment.

She frowned, a trace of unease flitting across her heart. "What's going on?"

In the past, Easternum's winter was very dry, and she didn't have any nosebleeds. On this journey, she had already had several nosebleeds.

Was it really because of that fall that injured his body?

She pursed her lips as a grave emotion enveloped her eyes. It was as if a lump of black ink had gathered in her black pupils.

Taking a few steps forward, her legs gave way all of a sudden. She suddenly felt her vision turn black and the sky spin and the earth spin. Before she could grab anything to support herself from falling down, her whole body heavily fell onto the ground.

In the distance, the clatter of galloping hooves grew closer and closer, and then, with a few hoots, the two horses stopped about two meters away from her.

The leading man jumped down from his horse and quickly ran to Liu Ruo Qing. When he saw the pale look on Liu Ruo Qing's face, he was surprised.

The person on the horse turned around and said, "Your Royal Highness, it's that lady."

The dark brown, tall and strong horse behind him was the Prince Duan, Qin Xuan.

Qin Xuan naturally knew who the "lady" Qian Wei spoke of was. It was just that after so long, he still hadn't asked her for her name.

Knowing that the one who fainted in front was Liu Ruo Qing, Qin Xuan was slightly surprised. His straight eyebrows slightly creased.

Qian Wei nodded his head, "She looks terrible."

"Bring her here first."

"Yes."

Because the Easternum and the Nanling's borders had been peaceful and prosperous for more than ten years, and because of the frequent trading, there were many inns, medicine stores, restaurants and so on.

"Doctor, what's wrong with her?"

Qin Xuan looked at the doctor who frowned slightly and asked.

The doctor stroked the beard. He pondered for a few seconds and then said: "I don't know the specific situation of this girl's symptoms. From her pulse I can see that her blood vitality is insufficient and her pulse is weak."

"Blood disease?"

"Yes."

The doctor nodded and continued, "The reason I'm not sure is because I've only seen this illness in the medical books, but I've never seen the patient suffer from this disease. I don't dare to judge further."

Hearing that, Qin Xuan took a glance at the pale and unconscious Liu Ruo Qing on the bed. His bottomless eyes, could not discern any emotion.

After a while he asked: "What would happen if I get blood poisoning?"

"According to the medical records, those who suffer from blood disease are prone to bleeding, and their wounds will be extremely difficult to stop bleeding. If the patient is not treated in time, the patient will undoubtedly die."

On Qin Xuan's emotionless face, when he heard the doctor's words, there were a few undulations, and then he asked: "Then does the doctor know how to treat this disease?"

The doctor shook his head thoughtfully, "This old man is very learned, how could I treat this disease? Rumor has it that 30 years ago, a Taoist named Shen Gu Zi cured a person, and after that, I haven't heard anything about him."

"Shen Gu Zi..."

Qin Xuan focused his eyes and muttered this name as if he was thinking of something.

"Young master, I'm still not sure if this young lady has the disease or not. We'll have to find some famous doctors with great medical skills to make a diagnosis."

"Yes."

Qin Xuan regained his senses, nodded his head, and said to the doctor: "Then I will trouble the doctor to prescribe a few sets of Qi replenishing pills for her to consume, and then we will make plans."

"Alright."

The doctor gave Liu Ruo Qing a few medicines, and said: "These medicines are to replenish Qi and blood, for the time being, let the young lady take them."

"Thank you, Doctor."

Qin Xuan looked at Qian Wei, and said: "Take the doctor's prescription, and go to the pharmacy and bring back a few sets of medicine."

"Yes."

After Qian Wei followed the doctor and left, Qin Xuan walked to the front of Liu Ruo Qing's bed, he was silent for a moment, then sighed: "What a pity."

This girl could be considered an expert. If it wasn't for the blood disease, he could still use her. But if it was the blood disease …

He didn't have the heart to find a godly doctor for her.

In Qin Xuan's eyes, there were many things that were more important than repaying the debt of gratitude.

Qin Xuan had lived in the struggle for power since he was young. That kind of environment had long caused his heart to become cold and hard. In his heart, there were many things that were more important than life.

When necessary, he could even trade his life for what he wanted.

Therefore, he would do the simple task of saving the girl in front of him. However, it was absolutely impossible for him to spend time and effort just to do it for her.

Just as Qin Xuan was sighing as he stared at Liu Ruo Qing, Liu Ruo Qing woke up.

The moment she opened her eyes, when she saw the blurry outline, her face revealed a look of happiness, "Yan Yuan."

She subconsciously raised her hand to grab Qin Xuan's hand, but because she lacked the strength, she drooped his hand.
