The Fallen Consort

Since the servant was desperate, He brought the three to the Crown Prince' Palace.

Upon arriving, the Crown Prince' Eunuch Elder Zhen came to greet Elder Bai. But instead, there were three masked man who came into view along with the servant.

"Where's Elder Bai? Didn't I told you to bring Elder Bai here?!"

"Elder Zhen, The medicine pavilion said that Elder Bai left this afternoon and he didn't said where he went.". He cupped his fist and bowed as he came in front of Elder Zhen.

"Didn't I tell you not to return until you brought Elder Zhen here? And who are these people?" For some reason, he felt suppressed by their presence. The three extremely quiet.

"Elder Zhen, this is Doctor Yi Jin. A Doctor from a High-Rank Kingdom." The servant was hesitant, of course he doesn't know if they were telling the truth. But he was desperate, afraid that something will happen if he delayed.

Elder Zhen smack the head of the servant. "If I tell you that I am as well, Would you believe me too?" He didn't believed that this short young man was a doctor. Much less from the High-Rank Kingdom.

"Oww.." The servant rubbed his head.

Before the servant could say anything else, Yi Ling stepped forward. She didn't say anything and just waved her left hand.

A dense spiritual energy came bursting out from her hand. The Elder and the servant was shocked!

"How? How could this be?" Elder Zhen's couldn't believe what he was sensing. The spiritual energy was so pure and dense.

Yi Ling smiled, She found a nice trick with the Ring. Along the way to Xiang Kingdom, She accidentally found out that she can release some spiritual energy from the Blue Rose Palace. Of course the people from the High-Rank Kingdom wouldn't be able to do what she just done, But the Cultivators from Mid-Rank Kingdom doesn't know that.

"Do you believe me now?" Yi Ling's manly voice permeated along with the spiritual energy. The breeze in the air got stronger, it made the three musketeers looked mystical.

"Yes, Yes.. Im sorry for doubting you Doctor Yi, Please follow this lowly one to meet the Crown Prince." Elder Zhen's attitude changed instantly. If one can give out spiritual energy on a whim, One is bound to be powerful. He decided to give it a try. They can always hunt and kill them if they were telling lies.

The Crown Prince of the Xiang Kingdom was lying in bed. Xiang He, who was nineteen years old was pale and weak. He looked devoid of joy and life. He is bedridden since he turned Fifteen, he got weaker and weaker by the time came.

He was the only son of the Emperor. It seems that no matter how many concubines his father ɨmprėġnȧtėd, they always give birth to a princess. At the moment, he has 6 sisters. He was the only child given birth by the late Empress. The love of his father's life. Unexpectedly, she died when Xiang He was ten. At that time, he didn't want to marry anybody else. He already had Xiang He as the Crown Prince since birth. By fifteen, everything changed. His son was crippled. The emperor was left with no choice but to get some concubines to give birth to another son. He was coerced by the Ministers. So far though, it wasn't productive.

When the guests came in, the Crown Prince tried to sit up. Pain can be seen on his face, it wasn't easy to get up..

"Your highness!" Elder Zhen immediately went to the Crown Prince' side and helped him sat up.

"Elder Zhen, these are?.." As he looked at the newcomers.

"Crown Prince, Elder Bai is away at the moment. Thankfully, Doctor Yi from a High-Rank Kingdom visited the medicine pavilion. We brought him here to check on you." Elder Zhen's lips pursed together after explaining. He was still hesitant but time was pressing.

"I see, Pardon me Doctor Yi if can't greet you formally. As you can see.. " He cupped his fist instead, to show respect still. Doctors are Miracle workers in Huaxia. They mainly control all the Kingdoms in secret. If you make an enemy of one, you will make an enemy of all the people the doctor healed. As they considered the Doctors their benefactors.

"Crown Prince, you are poisoned." Yi Ling's first words was directly pointed to his circumstances. She wanted to act forwardly without a hint of hesitation or delays.

The Crown Prince and Elder Zhen looked at each other. Their faces was grim.

"We figured that much Doctor Yi. Unfortunately, we talked to all doctors and nobody seem to be able to cure it." Elder Zhen explained. He was astonished that Doctor Yi could tell instantly what caused the Crown Prince' state was, without feeling someone's pulse.

"Do you have any means to cure me? I'll do anything! If you need anything please tell us." The Crown Prince was desperate. He wanted to ascend the throne. They suspected that his uncle was the one who poisoned him. But they didn't have sufficient evidence yet.

"I was able to tell your predicament, of course Im able to cure you. But on one condition." Yi Ling smirked underneath the mask. This will be the start of her plans. She wanted to gain strength, so she needs to build her foundations first.
