Hearing the man before him call his Master "Second Brother," Zhao Fei couldn’t help but speculate. Which Young Master of the Ji Family could this be? He had t the Third Young Master. The Eldest and Fourth Young Masters were far away in the Illusion Sect. The fifth in line in the Ji Family wasn’t a son, but the eldest daughter, who was ranked fifth. Therefore, the man before him could be one of the Sixth, Seventh, or Eighth Young Masters. He’d heard the Sixth Young Master enjoyed disguising himself as a beggar and rarely stayed at the Ji Mansion. The Seventh Young Master was a Divine Hunter, and the Eighth Young Master was a Scholar. Seeing the long sword in this man’s hand, he must be the Seventh Young Master!
"Seventh Young Master," he replied, "my Master received a letter from the Eldest Young Master and set off for the Illusion Sect imdiately!"
"What did you say? My Second Brother went to the Illusion Sect? And because he received a letter from my Eldest Brother? Is there sothing wrong with my Eldest Brother’s leg?"
Hearing that his Second Brother had gone to the Illusion Sect, Ji Youzhi’s first thought was whether there was a problem with his Eldest Brother’s leg again. His Eldest Brother’s leg had healed back in Nanyang Town. However, upon hearing that Ji Youran had gone to the Illusion Sect, his imdiate concern was still for his Eldest Brother’s leg.
"My Master didn’t ntion it, so I don’t know. Is there anything else, Seventh Young Master?"
"Oh! Nothing more!" Ji Youzhi walked away, sowhat worried. Without finding Second Brother, who else can help ? With this thought, he headed towards the Imperial dical Bureau.
Inside the Imperial dical Bureau, a group of Imperial Physicians anxiously awaited an Imperial Decree of punishnt from the Emperor. Princess Ata’s condition had worsened, and they were essentially helpless. They wanted to administer dicine to Princess Ata, but she had taken a Rejuvenation Pill that morning. Patients who have consud a Rejuvenation Pill cannot take any other dication within twelve hours, or there is a risk of adverse drug interactions.
When Ji Youzhi arrived, the group of Imperial Physicians looked as if they had seen their savior and rushed towards him.
"Ah, Lord Divine Hunter, you’re finally here! Has Divine Physician Ji returned? Do you have any idea where he might have gone?" The group of Imperial Physicians surrounded Ji Youzhi, bombarding him with questions.
Seeing their current state, Ji Youzhi couldn’t help but recall how they had pushed Xiaosuisui away that morning, and he felt a surge of annoyance. However, Xiaosuisui was capable in her own right, and he hadn’t objected at the ti. Thus, he decided not to vent his anger on any of the Imperial Physicians.
"I apologize, esteed Imperial Physicians, my Second Brother has gone on a long journey. He likely won’t be able to return for three to five days!"
Ji Youzhi’s words struck the Imperial Physicians like a bolt from the blue. Finding it hard to accept, they anxiously exclaid,
"How could this be?"
"What will we do without Divine Physician Ji?"
"What about Princess Ata..."
The Imperial Physicians were on the verge of tears.
Ji Youzhi, puzzled, asked,
"What’s going on?"
"What happened to Princess Ata?"
An Imperial Physician hurriedly explained, "After Princess Ata fainted in the Emperor’s Imperial Study this afternoon, she hasn’t woken up. She has a persistent high fever and is muttering deliriously!"
"Princess Ata has a persistent high fever? Is her life in danger?"
The Imperial Physician was on the verge of tears. "Lord Divine Hunter! If Princess Ata’s life weren’t in danger, would we be this anxious and worried?"
Ji Youzhi felt his head was about to split. He paused for a mont in thought, then said, "I’ll go check on Princess Ata’s condition first. Which of you can leave the Palace and inform my Xiaosuisui? Tell her to bring any life-saving dicine Pills or similar items into the Palace!"
With that, Ji Youzhi went to the Side Palace where Princess Ata was residing.
The Imperial Physicians in the Imperial dical Bureau looked at each other, hardly believing their ears.
"What did Lord Divine Hunter just say?"
"Invite the Eldest Princess into the Palace?"
"But the Eldest Princess is just a toddler! We old fellows are all helpless; what could that little child possibly do?"
