The Imperial Physicians arrived at Prince Kang’s Mansion before anyone else.
When Bai Xilie entered the mansion with Bai Zhi’er in his arms, Princess Consort Kang was sitting outside the sleeping chamber, pressing her temples and weeping.
The fifth heir, Bai Fengqing, stood beside her, speaking words of comfort.
Seeing Bai Xilie arrive, Princess Consort Kang immediately stood up.
She greeted him with tears in her eyes and spoke anxiously, "Second Brother, you finally came!"
It was as if she had found her backbone.
Bai Xilie quickly waved his hand, "At a time , there’s no need for formalities among family. How is Third Brother doing now?"
Princess Consort Kang said to Bai Xilie, "Just now, the two Imperial Physicians examined him and said it’s a sudden illness, but they can’t discern where exactly the problem lies."
"Before Second Brother arrived, Nan Jing vomited blood twice more and is still unconscious, hasn’t woken up!"
At this point, Princess Consort Kang wiped her tears, crying uncontrollably.
Bai Xilie furrowed his brow and said in a deep voice, "Third Sister-in-law, don’t be anxious; let me take a look first."
Saying this, he moved to go inside the chamber.
But Bai Xilie suddenly remembered his daughter was still in his arms, afraid she might be frightened by the scene inside the room.
So he put the little one down.
"Zhi’er, be good, Daddy is going to check on your Third Uncle."
Bai Zhi’er was very understanding.
With her round little face and lively black eyes, she said, "Go ahead, Daddy. Zhi’er will be good."
Bai Xilie then immediately walked into the inner room.
Prince Kang lay inside, and two Imperial Physicians were anxiously performing acupuncture to save him.
The third young master and the fourth heir stayed by the bedside, managing various matters.
Seeing Bai Xilie arrive, the brothers cupped their hands, their expressions solemn and serious, saying, "Uncle."
At this time, outside, Bai Zhi’er ran to Princess Consort Kang’s side, pressing her little face against Princess Consort Kang’s leg.
In a soft, comforting voice, she said, "Third Aunt, don’t cry. Third Uncle is silly but strong, nothing will happen."
Princess Consort Kang thought the little one was comforting her.
She forced a bitter smile, "Good Zhi’er, Third Aunt can’t hold you, let Fifth Brother stay with you."
Beside them, the fifth heir, Bai Fengqing, saw his sister as a cute, small bundle, also began to worry.
Bai Fengqing reached out tenderly to touch his sister’s small face.
Bai Zhi’er seized the opportunity to hold his hand, softly calling, "Fifth Brother~"
Bai Fengqing’s heart was almost melted.
He held the little one’s hand, "Sister, let’s go outside for some fresh air."
Here, the two of them couldn’t really help with anything.
Bai Zhi’er obediently nodded, "Okay!"
She had just sensed it inside the house.
The evil presence harming her Third Uncle wasn’t here.
It must have found a place to hide.
Given that Third Uncle hadn’t woken up yet, the evil presence must not have gone far.
It’s still within this house!
Let’s see how she would drag this sinister force out.
Once outside, Bai Zhi’er and Bai Fengqing suddenly heard a startled cry from Third Young Master Bai Yaoyu coming from inside the room—
"Father! What’s happening to you!"
Immediately followed by the Imperial Physician’s urgent shout, "The Prince has stopped breathing! Quickly, bring the ginseng soup!"
Bai Fengqing’s expression changed in shock.
He hurriedly pulled Bai Zhi’er back into the room.
The little one quietly slipped out of his grasp without him noticing.
Bai Fengqing hastily ran to the inner room, joined by Princess Consort Kang at the bedside.
Princess Consort Kang’s cries echoed in the deep night. Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs novelFirｅ.net
Bai Zhi’er blinked her big eyes, seeing everyone in a frenzy.
She quietly moved her little feet, running directly outside.
Standing under the porch, Bai Zhi’er sensed the approaching storm and howling winds.
Her ice-blue dress was slightly lifted by the wind.
In her watery eyes, the current Prince Kang’s Mansion was reflected, enveloped by a towering black aura of resentment!
