Chapter 143 Following Closely

Lin Mengya had fallen into unconsciousness for five days in a row since that day she vomited blood and fainted on the cliff.

Lin Mengya had been through these five days in a daze.

She could neither ingest any water nor medicine.

Because she got wet in the rain and caught a cold, she started to run a temperature that night.

All the people from the Liuxin Courtyard had been covered by a miserable storm.

"It's been five days now and our master would not take any medicine. The physician said if her fever didn't subside, she would—"

Baizhi choked back tears and once again attempted to feed the medicine to Lin Mengya.

However, Lin Mengya had tightly pursed her stubborn lips, refusing to open her mouth.

The brown medicine flowed down from the corner of her mouth along her fair chin.

Five days and five nights had passed with Lin Mengya having not drunk or eaten anything. Her initially rounded face had gotten thinner.

Dark circles could be seen around her eyes. The life in the initially beautiful lady was slipping out of her little by little, like the withering petals of flowers outside the window as autumn arrived.

"Doctor, how is her condition?"

Long Tianhao was wearing a severe expression with furrowed eyebrows, but there was something else in his usually cold eyes.

Somehow, panic and deep anxiety had crept into those eyes.

"The princess's heart has been defeated by extreme anger. She has lost much of her vitality after throwing up the mouthful of blood. Although it seemed like the medication could help cure her, she was unable to ingest any of it at this moment, so now she has... become..."

The imperial physician wiped away the beads of cold sweat on her forehead, as he realized that this was the first time in his life he had come across such condition as Princess Yu's condition.

What was more frightening to him was Prince Yu's fury.

It had long been rumored that the usually callous Prince Yu loved Princess Yu dearly.

Now it seemed that the rumor was indeed true.

However, this princess—

Stealing a glance at the haggard princess, the physician feared that she would not make it if she continued on in this state.

"Stop trying to show off how good you are, rather, spending your time thinking about how you could save this girl," said a cold voice.

The poor imperial physician shuddered at the sight of the white figure who spoke.

He wondered why the people he met in Prince Yu's mansion were increasingly difficult to please.

"Aren't you the imperial physician? If you fail to heal this girl, I'll chop you up into minced meat and feed you to the dogs."

Although the man by the name of Qinghu had the appearance of a gentleman, his pair of eyes was the coldest the physician had ever seen.

His lanky figure gave an imposing presence.

Just by one look, he was able to tell that Qinghu was a character not to be trifled with.

"Will the two of you please think of a way to save Elder Sister? If not, I'm going to bring her away."

At this instant, a young lad in green walked in.

The lad looked to be in his teens, but he was dressed elegantly and gave an air of arrogance. He was in no way less formidable than the first two men.

"Alright, stop arguing! Do you think Master will be awakened by your arguing?"

The three of them kept arguing until Baishao spoke up to stop them.

Since the day they carried her mistress back, the three men had been arguing non-stop.

Although she understood that they were worried about her, she could not help but be anxious, seeing that her mistress's condition was getting worse day by day.

"Doctor, would there be a chance for my mistress as long as she drinks the medicine?"

Baizhi asked anxiously as if an idea had come to her mind.

The imperial physician, who seemed to have found a chance to salvage his life, nodded immediately.

If his aging bones were to be subjected to more torment, they would fall apart.

"Why don't I feed the medicine to my mistress through my mouth? At least she would be able to take in some of it!"

However, the imperial physician immediately rejected Baizhi's idea.

"This is not feasible. I don't know why there are still remnants of the poison in her body. The medicine I prescribed for her also contains counter poison meant for neutralizing the poison in her body. If you were to ingest some of it, you'll be poisoned."

The physician's words did not deter Baizhi.

She could not stand around and do nothing when she saw that her mistress was dying.

"I'm not the least afraid, even if it meant that I have to sacrifice my life. I only want to save my mistress."

Baizhi had made up her mind to exchange her life for the life of Lin Mengya.

"No way! What if Mistress wakes up and you collapse? Wouldn't she be heartbroken? Have you forgotten the reason why she had ended up in this state in the first place?"

In the greater scheme of things, Baiji had apparently taken into consideration more factors than Baizhi did.

Lin Mengya was a person who esteemed comradeship, otherwise, she would not have suffered an impact on her heart due to Yue Ting's death.

"I don't care. I'm not going to be a bystander who does nothing but watches as our mistress dies."

Baizhi was prepared to give up everything. To her, Lin Mengya was her everything.

Just when the situation had come to a deadlock, a shadowy figure came into their midst.

"I'll do it."

Without any hesitation, Long Tianhao poured the bowl of medicine into his mouth and kept it in there.

Supporting Lin Mengya with his arm, he gradually fed the bitter medicine in his mouth little by little through Lin Mengya's pink lips, which were losing their colors.

"Your Highness!"

At the sight, Lin Kui's and Steward Deng's faces drained of their colors. The prince was like a god to them.

However, Long Tianhao lifted his hand to wave those who tried to dash towards him away.

"This... Don't be alarmed. This medicine would only harm the female body because of its cooling nature."

The gray-haired physician said in an unhurried tone as he wiped away the cold sweat on his own forehead.

In that instant, all the eyes in the room turned to him.

Not only were these young people too impulsive, but they also did not know how to show respect to the elders.

"Would the medicine harm the prince since he drank it?"

Steward Deng was worried that Long Tianhao's life would be endangered.

"Don't worry. When ingested by a male person, the medicine would at most cause some discomfort in his stomach and intestine. As long as he drinks lots of warm water, he'll be alright."

As the old imperial physician explained, he gave people the impression of a wise old saint.

However, the people from young to old, who were in the room, all thought the gray-haired physician was an old man who did not even know how to respect himself.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone in the room, Long Tianhao had fed the medicine to Lin Mengya mouthful by mouthful.

However, Lin Mengya's eyes remained shut. Because of her high fever, even a simple act of swallowing became extremely tedious for her.

Lin Mengya, who used to be slim, seemed to have become feather-light.

For some unknown reason, a subtle sense of fear came upon Long Tianhao.

He had not had any feeling of fear even when he was on a battleground facing thousands of enemy soldiers and horses.

Why was he feeling the panic when he looked at this lady lying on the bed, with the possibility of not being able to get up again?

"Mistress, you have to swallow the medicine down. Be good and obedient. You have to swallow it."

By now, the four maidservants were almost drowned in tears.

Even Baisu, who had only been with Lin Mengya for the shortest time, was hiding in a corner and weeping secretly.

Lin Mengya had been very kind to them so much so that they had subconsciously begun treating Lin Mengya as their sister.

Lin Mengya's condition was abysmal as they could see the brown-colored medicine flowed down her pale neck into the blanket.

The medicine had even made a large patch of stain on Long Tianhao. However, Lin Mengya's jaws were clenched so tightly that no medicine could go into her mouth.

Yue Qi, whose eyes were tearing up, gritted her teeth and dashed up to Lin Mengya.

She clenched her fists tightly. The grief in her heart was comparable to that of the rest.

Before her sister's body even cooled, Elder Sister Lin was dying too.

The once carefree little girl was forced to grow up overnight the moment her elder sister threw herself over the cliff.

"Elder Sister Lin! Have you forgotten how my sister died? Now that she's gone, are you going to follow her? Who then will avenge for her? Can you hear me, Elder Sister? You'll only be able to avenge my sister if you live!"

Yue Qi shook Lin Mengya's body violently as big drops of tears flowed down her cheeks.

"You're going to kill her!"

Lin Zhongyu dashed up to Yue Qi and pulled her away. His eyes were bloodshot by now.

Lin Zhongyu thought that if Lin Mengya was going to remain in this state, he would bring her away at all cost.

"Can Elder Sister Lin survive in this state?" Yue Qi, whose eyes were bloodshot too, roared at Lin Zhongyu.

"Wake up, Elder Sister Lin! Wake up! Are you going to let those evil, shameless people go scot-free?"

In the room, Yue Qi was still screaming her head off, when it seemed that her scream was beginning to have an effect.

Long Tianhao was certain that Lin Mengya had ingested some of the medicine he fed into her mouth.

"It appears effective! She can hear it, she can feel it!"

Qinghu, who was standing by the bed and had not taken his eyes off Lin Mengya, suddenly exclaimed.

Long Tianhao indicated for everyone to quieten down and began feeding Lin Mengya more of the medicine.

In that instant, absolute silence ensued in the bedroom.

The only thing audible was people's swallowing. No one even dared take deep breaths. They were afraid that they would miss picking up signs of Lin Mengya's turning point to get better.

"Quick, go fetch some porridge!"

Qinghu repeated the instruction a few times with great excitement.

"Okay, I'm going, I'm going."

The drastic swing of mood from extreme sadness to elation caused Baiji to lose her usually composed mannerism.

She dashed into the little kitchen in Liuxin Courtyard. Long Tianhao had fed Lin Mengya three bowls of the medicine in total before he finally gave up, to make sure an effective amount of it went into her system.

Long Tianhao carefully laid Lin Mengya on the bed. Totally disregarding the bitter taste in his mouth left behind by the medicine, he took over the bowl of porridge from Baizhi and started feeding it to Lin Mengya.

Eventually, he managed to get half of bowl of the porridge into Lin Mengya's mouth little by little.

Seeing the color that had returned to Lin Mengya's pale countenance, Long Tianhao's heart, which had been hanging, finally felt reassured.

After this, it would be up to Lin Mengya's body to bring down the fever. Once her temperature came down, she would be considered to have overcome a hurdle.

"Your Highness, the Art Courtyard had sent for you three times. I'm afraid you really have to make a trip there right away."

Steward Deng said with his head bowed as he hastened Long Tianhao, somewhat reluctantly.

Five days earlier, Princess Ming Yue had returned with Prince Yu. For some unknown reason, she had quickly won Concubine De's favor.

In addition to the fact that Princess had vomited blood, Prince Yu had been guarding by her side all this time.

As a result, the people at the Art Courtyard were rather upset with Lin Mengya.

"I get it, I'll be right there."

As he spoke, Long Tianhao touched Lin Mengya's burning forehead with his big palm.

For some unknown reason, he was determined in his heart to take care of this Chapter 143 Following Closely

Moreover, Lin Mengya was not one to let go of vengeance.
