Chapter 249: Chapter 245: Leaving the Palace_1

Murong Xian noticed this and asked the doctor by his side: “What seems to be the matter with him?”

“Your Highness, please don’t worry. Xiao Langjun is now out of danger. He is just not completely conscious. Let him rest more, he will be fine after a sleep.”

As the chief doctor said this, he pulled out a yellow talisman and drew a sleep talisman on it. Humming a little, he burned the talisman paper and mixed it with water for Xiao Chengjun to drink.

Having drunk the talisman water, Xiao Chengjun lay back on the bed and fell asleep again.

Observing this, Yingbao was amazed and suddenly entertained the idea: why not focus on mastering the Healing Prayer Technique?

She glanced at a series of small bamboo tubes hanging around the doctor’s waist, guessing that they contained various types of medicinal water. They were likely using rituals, prayers, talisman papers, and psychological suggestions to make patients believe their illnesses had been eliminated or transferred elsewhere.

This type of suggestion could indeed create an illusion for some patients, making them believe they were getting better, thereby putting their minds at ease. In combination with medicated treatment, their bodies naturally improved.

Her Wudingzhi used with medicinal herbs could be a perfect fit for this, given its magical effectiveness on many diseases.

The more Yingbao thought, the more she was convinced that the Healing Prayer technique was tailor-made for her – absolutely perfect!

“I want to become a Forbidden Curse Master in the future,” she said seriously to the two doctors, “Where can I buy relevant books?”

Both Forbidden Curse Masters had heard of this little six-year-old doctor and said with a smile: “If you really want to learn, you can become our apprentice.”

Yingbao looked a bit embarrassed, “But I have to go home. I can’t stay in Beijing for long.”

One of the Forbidden Curse Masters said: “Buying books is easy. The Calligraphy and Painting Workshop in Beijing sells them. However, these only provide the simplest of curses. If you want to learn the more profound ones, you need to have a master.”

Yingbao bowed to him, “Thank you for informing me. However, I need to discuss with my parents about becoming an apprentice when I get home.”

She merely wanted to learn the basics to bluff people. As for profound Forbidden Curse Techniques, she could take that slowly.

Murong Xian laughed: “I’ve got some curse books at my place. I’ll have someone find some and give them to you.”

“That’s great!” Yingbao gratefully said, “Thank you, Your Highness.”

After seeing off the two doctors, Yingbao started packing her things, preparing to leave the palace the next day.

As she was preparing, she realized that there were quite a few things she needed to take with her – three large boxes to be precise.

Apart from her own clothes, there were two boxes of silk and satin gifted by the Empress and some wax-making tools given by Yao Yuanzheng.

Soon after, Murong Xian sent some fabrics and fifty taels of gold, as well as a box of books.

When Yingbao opened the books, she found they were about the spell talismans of the four Healing Prayer Technique categories for curing diseases.

One book depicted the talismans used for bone setting, malaria, burns, ringworm, infantile convulsion, dog and snake bites, abscesses, and carbuncles.

The second book explained the universal talismans for curing diseases in each of the four categories.

The rest of the books detailed the talismans used for the major and minor categories of the pulse diagnosis category.

Overall, the Healing Prayer Technique mainly was about Forbidden Curse Technique and talisman drawing, and different spells and talisman patterns were used for different diseases. It seemed quite daunting at first.

However, there was no rush; she could take her time learning these things.

The next morning, Yingbao got up early and bid farewell to the Prince.

Murong Xian did not try to detain her and had escorts send her out of the palace.

Before leaving, Yingbao hesitated a moment, then took out two porcelain bottles from her bag and handed them to the Prince, “This is a health potion. You should take a large gulp every night before sleep to maintain a healthy body.”

These two porcelain bottles should be enough for him to last about two months. By then, the frail prince should be fit and robust.

Murong Xian smiled as he received the porcelain bottles: “Thank you, Yingbao, I will do as advised.”

After getting on the carriage, Yingbao looked ahead and saw a figure standing in the distance. It was no one other than Xiao Chengjun, who had already recovered.

Standing tall and looking handsome in his pale green robe fluttering with the wind, he was gazing at her with a deep look in his eyes.

Chen Tiantian, dressed as a palace maid and standing by the willow tree behind him, nervously glanced around, seeming lost in thought.

Yingbao furrowed her brows and waved to the prince.

Murong Xian, not understanding, still took a few steps forward and asked, “Is there anything else?”

Yingbao spoke softly, “Your Highness, you’ve just recovered, so be careful with your food, it wouldn’t be good if someone were to poison it.”

Murong Xian laughed, “Don’t worry, no one dares to hurt me.”

“That’s not necessarily true.” Yingbao covered her mouth with her hand and whispered in Murong Xian’s ear, “You should be careful of Xiao Chengjun and Chen Tiantian, they seem quite suspicious. In case you are poisoned again…”

With some reluctance, Yingbao took out another porcelain bottle, “Use this as an antidote.”

Murong Xian took the porcelain bottle, nodding his head, “I understand.”

Yingbao returned to the carriage and waved at him, “I’m leaving now. Oh, and Sister Chang is a good person, make sure you take care of her – don’t let anyone bully her.”

“Don’t worry.” Murong Xian also waved at her, “I look forward to the day your brother comes to Beijing.”

“Sure.”

The carriage gradually moved toward the gate of the East Palace. Yingbao took one last look back and saw Murong Xian still standing at the palace entrance looking in her direction, and Changxiu, kneeling and crying.

Yingbao sighed and glanced at the baby hedgehog in the bamboo basket.

She might take the hedgehog away, but she couldn’t take Changxiu with her, not knowing when they’ll see each other again.

But she had given her twenty pills before leaving, as long as she stayed healthy, they would meet again one day.

The carriage arrived at the Xiao residence, and because an inner servant was driving, the servants of Xiao family quickly came over to help carry the things.

There were four or five boxes of various sizes. This trip to the palace had been fruitful for Yingbao.

The boxes were delivered to the guesthouse, and Xu Chunniang rushed out to greet her daughter.

Mother and daughter hadn’t seen each other in over twenty days and their reunion felt like a lifetime had passed.

“Bao’er, did you suffer there? Has anyone bullied you?” Chunniang stroked her daughter’s face and asked, “Is the nobleman you treated recovered?”

Chunniang was not aware that her daughter had been to the palace and assumed she was treating some nobleman in Beijing.

“Nobody bullied me.” Yingbao sat down on the chair, “The nobleman is fully recovered. He has allowed us to go home.”

“Really?” Hearing this, Chunniang was overjoyed, “When can we go home?”

Yingbao: “We need to ask Xiao Mo first, after all, he was the one who brought us here, so it is his responsibility to send us back. I estimate we could leave the day after tomorrow at the latest.”

“That’s great.” In this period of time, Chunniang was anxiously waiting, worried not only for her daughter but also yearning for her husband and son.

Yingbao: “Mother, before we go, let’s go to the West Market in Beijing. I need to buy some things to take with us.”

“Okay, let’s go to the West Market this afternoon.” Chunniang did not want to waste a single day here.

Yingbao scratched her head: “it might be a bit late in the afternoon, let’s go tomorrow.”

As guests of the Xiao family, they had to inform the host before going out, to fail to do so would be impolite.

Chunniang nodded continuously. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

Now that her daughter was back, Chunniang felt like she had support and that everything would be fine as long as she listened to her daughter’s advice.

The house of the Duke had way too many rules, and Chunniang had no idea how to act. During her daughter’s absence, she had luckily been guided by two maids, or else she would have made a fool of herself.

As the mother and daughter were talking, Chen Zhao came in from outside and greeted Yingbao awkwardly: “Yingbao, you’re back.”

Yingbao nodded: “Yes.”

In her absence, Chen Zhao had stayed by her mother’s side, and the two had gotten along fine.

Just for this, Yingbao decided to be a bit nicer to Chen Zhao.
