Rebirth of Her Royal Highness the Princess

——The Palace of the King

"Knock knock, Princess, the imperial physician is here to check your pulse." Chun Tao knocked softly on the door of Linglong Pavilion, her voice clear and loud, as if she was afraid that the people inside could not hear it. She stood outside the door with an anxious and worried look on her face, as if she was waiting for an important answer.

In the room, Hua Xiulan leaned on the bed. After hearing Chuntao knocking on the door, she sighed softly and said in a tired tone, "Come in."

Chun Tao opened the door and led the doctor in. The doctor was dressed in a white robe, with a serious face, holding a small box in his hand, which contained various medical tools. He walked to the bedside, saluted Hua Xiulan, and said respectfully: "I pay my respects to the princess."

Hua Xiulan nodded slightly and said softly, "No need to be polite, Imperial Physician."

The doctor opened the medicine box, took out a silk handkerchief, and said to Hua Xiulan, "Please stretch out your hand, Princess." Hua Xiulan stretched out her right hand, and the doctor placed it on her wrist, then stretched out his fingers and gently pressed on her pulse. He closed his eyes, carefully felt the beating of her pulse, and his face showed a focused expression.

After a while, the doctor loosened his hand, his face becoming a little serious. He turned to Hua Xiulan and said, "Princess, your pulse is a little weak, you need to take good care of it. In addition, I suggest you get more rest and avoid overwork." Hua Xiulan's heart tightened.

"Doctor, is my child okay?" Hua Xiulan asked nervously.

The imperial physician quickly comforted her, "Princess, don't worry. The fetus is fine at the moment. But you are not getting enough Qi and blood, so you need to take care of the fetus."

After that, the doctor prescribed some medicines to protect the fetus and gave some precautions. Hua Xiulan nodded and said she would follow the doctor's instructions.

After Chun Tao sent the doctor away, she returned to her room. She looked at Hua Xiu Lan and said distressedly, "Princess, you must take good care of yourself and the baby in your belly. If you need anything, just tell me."

Hua Xiulan looked at Chuntao gratefully and said, "Yeah." In the following days, Hua Xiulan paid more attention to taking care of her body. She hoped that she could give birth to the child smoothly.

However, Hua Xiulan's peace of mind did not last long. One night, she suddenly felt a sharp pain and the baby in her belly seemed to be struggling desperately. Her face turned pale in an instant and her clothes were soaked with sweat.

Chuntao hurriedly called in the imperial physicians, but they were helpless and could only watch Hua Xiulan suffer.

"What's going on? He was fine yesterday..." Hua Xiulan's voice was filled with despair.

At this time, a mysterious figure quietly entered the room. The man was wearing a black cloak and his face could not be seen clearly. He walked to Hua Xiulan's bed, stretched out his finger and gently touched her, and Hua Xiulan's pain was immediately relieved a lot.

"Who are you?" Hua Xiulan asked weakly.

The mysterious man whispered, "I am here to save you and the child. Someone doesn't want this child to be born, so he killed him. But don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you." After saying that, the mysterious man used his medical skills again, and a warm force enveloped Hua Xiulan and the fetus in her belly.

Hua Xiulan gradually calmed down and looked at the mysterious man with gratitude. "Thank you... May I ask who you are?"

The mysterious man smiled and said, "No need to ask who I am. It is my responsibility to protect the safety of you and the child." After that, he turned and left, disappearing into the darkness.

"Who is it?" Hua Xiulan thought to herself.

"Mo Li, Mo Li." Hua Xiu Lan called weakly.

"Lan'er, how are you?" Jun Moli walked quickly into the room and looked nervously at Hua Xiulan, who was pale on the bed.

"I'm fine, I just feel a little strange, as if my body is affected by something." Hua Xiulan said with a frown.

"Could it be that someone has cast a spell on you?" Jun Moli guessed.

"It's possible, but we have no evidence. Why don't you find a fortune teller to see if you can find a solution." Hua Xiulan suggested.

"Okay, I'll go find someone to help right away." Jun Moli nodded in agreement.

"By the way, there is one more thing. I have been having some strange dreams recently. In my dreams, there is a mysterious woman and an ancient temple. I don’t know if these dreams are related to my illness, but I always feel that there is some connection between them." Hua Xiulan added.

"This woman and the temple may be the key clues. I will investigate it as soon as possible. You should have a good rest first and don't think too much." Jun Moli comforted.

"Well, thank you, Mo Li." Hua Xiu Lan looked at Jun Mo Li gratefully.

"Don't worry, Lan'er, I will definitely find a way to save you." Jun Moli said firmly.

Afterwards, Jun Moli immediately gave the order: "Come here, send someone to the Western Frontier to find Master Canglan and invite him to the capital."

"Yes!" The guards took the order and left.

Master Canglan is a famous fortune teller in the world. He is proficient in Yixue, Qimen Dunjia, physiognomy and other skills, and is known as the "world's number one fortune teller." If he can be invited, perhaps he can solve the mystery of Hua Xiulan and find a way to treat her.

"Who is the mysterious person who saved us?" Hua Xiulan asked curiously.

"He is the secret guard I placed by your side. Just call him Bai Yu." Jun Moli said lightly.

"Bai Yu? You might as well be called Hei Yu since you're wearing a nightgown." Hua Xiu Lan couldn't help but joked after hearing that.

Hearing this, Jun Moli's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile. He gently shook his head, without saying anything, but his eyes revealed his doting and love for Hua Xiulan.

A few days later, Master Canglan came to the capital. After learning about Hua Xiulan's situation, he pondered for a moment and then said, "Princess, this is caused by the poison. The person who poisoned you wants to harm you and the fetus in your belly. But don't worry, I have a solution." Master Canglan took out a pill from his arms and handed it to Hua Xiulan, "Take this pill, it can temporarily suppress the poison. But to completely detoxify, you still need to find the person who poisoned you."

After Hua Xiulan took the elixir, she felt much more relaxed. She said to Master Canglan gratefully, "Thank you, Master." Jun Moli decided to investigate the matter secretly and find out who was behind it.

At the same time, Hua Xiulan is also working hard to recover, and she is looking forward to the truth coming out soon.

While Hua Xiulan was recuperating, Jun Moli was not idle either. He sent out his confidants to collect clues everywhere, trying to find the person who cast the curse.

One day, Hua Xiulan went to the palace to recuperate and took a walk in the garden. Suddenly, she saw a maid hurriedly passing by. She felt something strange and followed her. The maid walked into a remote palace. Hua Xiulan quietly approached to listen to what sound came from inside.

"Hmph, she got lucky by not being able to get rid of that bitch this time!" a sharp female voice came.

"Miss, please calm down. We still have a chance..." another voice echoed.

Hua Xiulan recognized the voice as Concubine Xi's. She was startled and was about to leave when she accidentally stepped on a branch, making a noise.

"Who's outside?" Concubine Xi asked.

Hua Xiulan took a deep breath and walked in calmly. "It turns out that it is Concubine Xi who is here. I am honored to meet you."

When Concubine Xi saw Hua Xiulan, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure. "Why is Princess Zhaoyang here?"

"I just passed by and heard a noise inside, so I came over to take a look. Who is the Queen talking to?" Hua Xiulan asked as if nothing had happened.

"They are just a few palace maids. If Princess Zhaoyang has nothing to do, you should go back and rest early." Concubine Xi ordered them to leave.

Hua Xiulan smiled and said, "In that case, I will not disturb Your Majesty any more." After saying that, she turned and left.

After returning to Yaoyue Palace, Hua Xiulan told Jun Moli about this. Jun Moli frowned and said, "It seems that we have to speed up."

The next day, Jun Moli received an anonymous letter, which pointed out that Concubine Xi had colluded with a wizard outside the palace to murder Hua Xiulan and her unborn child. Jun Moli decided to take advantage of the situation and lure the snake out of its hole...
