Chapter 264
The maid was determined and said, "Since this is the case, there is no other choice."
Seeing the maid agree, He Zhiran took the initiative to support her, and walked to the Crown Princess Consort's palace step by step.
Contrary to their imagination, the Crown Princess Consort's palace was not the largest in the inner palace, but it looked shabby and remote instead of the largest.
Based on He Zhiran's experience of watching TV shows in his previous life, the fact that the Crown Princess Consort lived in such a place showed that she was not favored by the Crown Prince.
Not to mention the Prince's Mansion, even ordinary families would not let the official wife live in such a place.
With a belly full of doubts, the two followed the maid into the palace.
In fact, they didn't know that this was not a bedroom at all, but a cold palace in the Prince's Mansion.
The maid thought they were all people from the Prince's Mansion and knew all these things, so she didn't explain anything.
The outside looked like a small bedroom, but after walking in, He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye were shocked.
The two also realized that this was most likely the cold palace.
He Zhiran inevitably complained in his heart: Emperor Shunwu was really conservative. Back then, the Mo Family men guarded the borders and made the southern border fall like flowers and water.
For such a small defeated country, why did he need to send his own daughter here for a political marriage to suffer?
The Southern Border was obviously not taking the Da Shun Dynasty seriously, otherwise how dare they treat the princess who came to be married so rudely?
This was clearly slapping the Da Shun Dynasty in the face...
Of course, their purpose this time was to see the Fourth Princess. They wouldn’t care about things that Emperor Shunwu should worry about.
The Southern Border was not as regular as Da Shun, and the folk customs were more open than Da Shun’s, and there was no rule that men from outside could not enter the harem.
Therefore, no one questioned them all the way to the cold palace with the maid.
The maid limped and took the two directly to the Fourth Princess's room, and asked another maid to ask the Crown Prince to invite the witch doctor.
Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran took a simple look. In the room, only a dim oil lamp was burning, and with no furnishings in the room, it looked bleak.
Lying on a broken wooden bed opposite the door was a disheveled woman.
He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye walked over quickly.
Mo Jiuye had often entered the palace since he was a child. He was also escorting the Fourth Princess’ marriage, so he was no stranger to the appearance of the woman before him.
As her voice fell, the two maids cried at the same time, and even tried to shake the Fourth Princess awake at the bedside.
Seeing this, He Zhiran hurriedly stopped the behavior of the two.
"She was barely holding on just now. Do you want her to die faster by doing this?"
At this moment, Lan Er could no longer attend to the disrespect in He Zhiran's tone. She knelt in front of her crying and said,
"Please save our princess. As long as you can save the princess alive, I am willing to be an ox or a horse to repay you."
Although He Zhiran didn't have a good impression of the Fourth Princess, these two maids were absolutely loyal.
Facing such people, she couldn’t bear to be cruel at all.
It was a pity that she was also powerless in the face of the Fourth Princess’s current situation.
She gently helped Lan Er up and sighed, "I have a way to make your princess regain consciousness. At this time she can convey some things to you, but I don't have the ability to let her live on."
Seeing her tone was firm and she was not lying, and looking at the Fourth Princess on the bed with her eyes closed without the slightest vitality, Lan Er had already prepared herself for the burial.
However, before that, she still wanted to serve the Fourth Princess again.
Lan Er wiped her tears and said, "Please wake up the princess."
He Zhiran did not hesitate either, took out the needle pack from the space, and also brought a cardiotonic.
The two measures combined would definitely wake up the Fourth Princess.
She first pricked several acupoints on the Fourth Princess with silver needles, then took the opportunity when the two maids were not paying attention to inject a shot of cardiotonic into the Fourth Princess.
After about five minutes, the Fourth Princess woke up leisurely.
Seeing the moment she opened her eyes, Lan Er and the other maid rushed to the bedside.
"Princess, you finally woke up."
The Fourth Princess looked at the two maids who had grown up with her with little energy, then shifted her gaze to Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran.
"Who...who are they?"
At this point, Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran felt that there was no need to conceal their identities.
Especially He Zhiran, who was clearest in her heart that the way she had awakened the Fourth Princess now could not prolong her time, but would accelerate her death rate instead.
