Lan Hao finally stood outside Ruhan's house.
Ru Ping, who was only separated from Ru Han by a curtain, heard Lan Hao's voice coming from outside the door. The anxious "Ru Han Ru Han" was so heartbreaking.
But Ruhan next door was silent. Ruping suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart. The two of them had not met since they came to Hanyue Pavilion and were separated. They would occasionally say a few words to each other in the past two days, but today Ruping just remembered that she and Ruhan had not said a word to each other.
Lan Hao outside the door seemed to have a premonition as well. His face was pale. The torture of waiting at the gate of Hanyue Pavilion for two days and two nights, coupled with the suffocating feeling that was oppressing his heart, made Lan Hao completely lose his mind. He banged on the door desperately, his heart filled with panic: "Ruhan, Ruhan... are you asleep? Are you angry? Angry that I came to see you now? Get up and talk to me! Ruhan..."
Ru Ping slowly sat up from the bed. She was having difficulty breathing, her whole body was extremely weak, and she was still running a low fever. "Ru Han..."
Ru Ping called out softly, but no one responded. Ru Ping no longer dared to hope for luck. She slowly walked down from the bed, but fell to the ground because she was too weak. Ru Ping took a breath and moved towards Ru Han little by little.
Lan Hao also fell to the ground outside the door, despair gradually rising in his heart: "Ruhan, you can't speak, but it's okay if you can hear me... Do you remember the first time we met? You were in a dry well at that time. Your father abandoned you in the well for several days, almost dying of thirst and starvation, but you kept looking up at the top of the well. Your eyes were so black, so bright. At that time, I thought, this little girl will definitely survive..."
Ruping finally staggered to Ruhan's side and found that Ruhan was still running a high fever. Perhaps she heard Lan Hao calling her and talking to her, Ruhan's eyelids trembled slightly, but she couldn't open her eyes.
Ruping breathed a sigh of relief, as long as she was still conscious, it was fine.
"...Later, the young lady and I finally pulled you out of the dry well. Ruhan, I believe you can make it this time. The young lady and I are waiting for you..."
Ruping half supported and half hugged Ruhan, and finally moved step by step to the door. When they were exhausted, they both fell down at the door.
Ru Han's voice, as light as a mosquito's, finally rang out intermittently: "Lan Hao, I'm fine. I will... get better. Don't... worry..."
Lan Hao, who was just across the door, finally burst into tears of joy, "That's great, that's great..."
Lan Hao gently placed his palm against the door. Ruhan sensed something and also reached out and placed his palm against the door, as if Lan Hao had thrown a rope into a dry well many years ago. He held one end of the rope, while Ruhan held the other end.
Ruping smiled with relief: "Lan Hao, Ruhan doesn't have much strength left and can't speak. He needs to save his energy to take medicine and eat later!" The scene in front of her moved her, and she sincerely hoped that all the beautiful things around her would no longer have to suffer.
Lan Hao quickly responded: "Yes, yes... Stop talking, I'm here with you, I'll just tell you..."
Nie Wushuang returned to Yinxue Pavilion to report to Lan Qingwu, "Your Majesty, the illnesses of the two girls, Ruhan and Ruping, have improved somewhat today. As long as they take their medicine and eat on time, I believe they will recover soon. Also, if Master comes up with any new medicine, I will give it to them immediately. When I left Hanyue Pavilion today, the two girls were finishing their medicine."
Lan Qingwu breathed a sigh of relief: "Everything depends on Doctor Nie."
When Emperor Shenwu came to accompany Lan Qingwu late at night, Lan Qingwu first looked him up and down: "Your Majesty, you must be very tired. If Brother Heng is too busy, please don't come to see me. I'm fine, I'll be fine. But Brother Heng must take care of himself. I need you!"
Emperor Shenwu sat on the edge of the bed: "Are you scared? Don't worry, I will be fine!"
Lan Qingwu felt as if there was something else behind these words, and couldn't help but look at Emperor Shenwu curiously.
Emperor Shenwu grasped a lock of Lan Qingwu's hair and said, "As a member of the royal family, I have been using secret medicines since I was young. These medicines have some inhibitory effect on the epidemic."
Lan Qingwu nodded in understanding: "Your Majesty, do you know the source of this plague?"
Emperor Shenwu nodded: "Don't worry so much, I will take care of everything!"
