"I'm afraid it won't be so easy to subdue this evil spirit," Bai Zheng said, a hint of coldness flashing across her eyes as if she had thought of something.
"Miss, do you know how to subdue it?" Bai Fu asked curiously.
Hearing this, Bai Zheng covered her mouth and laughed. The bright expression on her usually indifferent face dazzled Bai Fu. "Uncle Fu, your miss is not a Taoist priest. How could I know such details?"
"Then, Miss, you just said..." That it was not easy to subdue the evil spirit?
"That evil spirit has such a great background that even Feng Linche has to show it some respect. Relying solely on Concubine Zhao, it's naturally difficult to subdue it," Bai Zheng's black eyes glinted slightly.
The so - called evil spirit was just a name. In fact, everyone knew clearly that besides Zheng Yan, who else in this world would haunt Feng Jingyang?
However, Zheng Yan was the only beloved daughter of the Marquis of Gaochang and his wife. Even though she was dead now, if Concubine Zhao dared to do anything unfavorable to Zheng Yan's ghost, the Marquis of Gaochang and the Princess of Pingyang would never let her succeed.
Thinking of this, Bai Fu also sighed with emotion. "Then, can't the Fourth Prince be cured?"
"Whether he can be cured depends on how far Concubine Zhao is willing to go for her son," Bai Zheng said. Then she turned around and looked at Qing Shao, who had been locked up for a few days and looked a bit pale. She sighed softly. "There will probably be more turmoil in Yongding City. Qing Shao must be treated."
Thinking that Qing Shao was injured because of her, Bai Zheng felt full of guilt.
But now, almost all the slightly better doctors in Yongding City had gone to the palace.
Although Qing Shao seemed to have only suffered skin - deep injuries, since she came out of the palace, who knew if there were any internal injuries?
It would be useless to invite those unskilled doctors.
Where could she find a reliable miracle doctor in such a short time?
Suddenly, a person flashed through Bai Zheng's mind.
Her eyes lit up, and she suddenly stood up.
Bai Fu only felt as if a gust of wind had blown past him. When he came to his senses, Bai Zheng was no longer in sight.
Looking back, he heard Bai Zheng, who was about to step out of the courtyard gate, order him, "Prepare the carriage. I'm going to the Marquis of Dingyuan's Mansion."
Right! She almost forgot. Maybe she couldn't find a suitable doctor elsewhere, but there must be no shortage of them in the Marquis of Dingyuan's Mansion.
Even if she didn't know anyone else, there was still Uncle Zhu, an acquaintance.
Since Qing Shao came from the Marquis's Mansion, it would be most appropriate to ask Uncle Zhu to treat her.
The carriage galloped and soon brought the anxious Bai Zheng to the Marquis of Dingyuan's Mansion.
"Miss, we're here," the coachman reined in the horse and said respectfully to Bai Zheng.
Bai Zheng lifted the curtain. Without bothering to look at the mansion, she reported her identity and then was led by the guard at the gate towards Feng Linyuan's study.
Before getting close to the study, seeing the maids and guards coming in and out in a hurry with panicked expressions, Bai Zheng suddenly felt a sense of uneasiness.
"What's going on?" Bai Zheng grabbed a maid who was passing by and frowned.
The maid obviously didn't recognize Bai Zheng, who was visiting the Marquis's Mansion for the first time. She was about to leave without paying attention when the guard beside her whispered, "This is Miss Bai San."
Bai Zheng, Feng Linyuan's fiancée.
The maid immediately understood. She quickly stopped and bowed to Bai Zheng. "It's my fault for being blind and not recognizing Miss Bai. Please forgive me, Miss."
Seeing the maid who suddenly regained her calm in front of her, Bai Zheng couldn't help but admire Feng Linyuan.
Not gossiping and remaining calm in case of trouble. It showed Feng Linyuan's shrewdness to be able to manage his subordinates like this.
No wonder Feng Linche had panicked and even joined forces with the Western Liang to destroy the Marquis of Dingyuan's Mansion.
But what could it be that made such a subordinate show such a panicked expression?
Bai Zheng's heart skipped a beat.
"Could it be that something has happened to the Marquis?"
The maid lowered her head, and a hint of urgency finally showed in her voice. "The Marquis vomited a lot of blood and fainted..."
Before the maid could finish, Bai Zheng's figure had quickly disappeared around the corner of the corridor.
Entering the study, the maids in the room were obviously very frightened. When they saw the unfamiliar Bai Zheng coming in, they even forgot to ask her.
Bai Zheng stepped into the room. After turning the screen, she saw Feng Linyuan lying on the couch with a paper - pale face and lips still stained with dark red blood.
Uncle Zhu was feeling his pulse with his beard in his hand, looking solemn.
After a while, he gradually put down his hand.
Bai Zheng then stepped forward and asked, "How is the Marquis's condition?"
Uncle Zhu looked up and saw Bai Zheng. He sighed. "I've been giving the Marquis the medicine left by my senior brother. But the medicine ran out a few days ago. Without the suppression, the Marquis's illness has become serious again. I'm at my wit's end."
Following Uncle Zhu's gaze, on the other side of the desk in the study, a large area of blood that had not completely dried was extremely eye - catching. The large amount of blood almost scared Bai Zheng. "Didn't we ask Tianyi Pavilion to look for him? Has there been any news from Doctor Zhou?"
Mo Li beside him shook his head. "We don't know where Doctor Zhou has hidden himself. Tianyi Pavilion has been looking for more than a month, but there's still no sign of him."
Bai Zheng took a deep breath and her mind raced. "Is there absolutely no news at all, or did we find some general clues but just haven't found the person yet?"
Being asked this, Mo Li also seriously recalled.
He frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly looked up and replied, "I remember that it seems Doctor Zhou was spotted in Qinghe County last month."
Qinghe County? It wasn't very far from Yongding.
"Have you sent anyone to look for him in Qinghe County?" Bai Zheng asked.
"Of course we did. But we don't know if Doctor Zhou deliberately hid from us or what. We just couldn't find him," Mo Li said with an annoyed face.
This was the first time that the all - knowing Tianyi Pavilion was so helpless about a person.
"He can't be hiding from us. Senior brother has no grudges against the Marquis. Moreover, with my little influence, as long as we find him, he will surely be willing to treat the Marquis," Uncle Zhu explained.
Bai Zheng lowered her eyes, looking solemn.
As Uncle Zhu said, this miracle doctor, Zhou Sheng, couldn't deliberately hide from the search of the Marquis of Dingyuan's Mansion. There must be other reasons for not finding him.
But no matter what the reason was, there were mostly mountain roads in Qinghe County. With the physical strength of a doctor in his fifties or sixties, he wouldn't have gone very far in a month.
Thinking of this, Bai Zheng came to a conclusion. "Doctor Zhou is probably still near Qinghe County."
Mo Li obviously also thought of this. He quickly bowed and said, "I'll ask Tianyi Pavilion to send more people. We'll surely bring him back in the shortest time!"
Saying that, he was about to turn around and leave when he heard Bai Zheng shout.
"Wait!"
Mo Li turned around and looked at Bai Zheng in confusion.
Bai Zheng said calmly, "Given the Marquis's condition, even if we send more people to look for him, it will be too late."
"Then what should we do?" Mo Li became anxious.
Bai Zheng raised her eyebrows and gave a faint smile. "Then let him come to us on his own."
