I insist

Chapter 77: Forced to Stay

"That person is no good; one should always be wary of others."

I will pay close attention to this matter.

Seeing that she was unmoved by his words, Yu Huailin fell silent and looked indifferently at the people outside.

Song Miqiu sensed something was wrong, frowned and kept checking the items in the room. Only after confirming that no one was making any noise did she nod to the other party.

However, Yu Huailin did not relax. He sighed and then picked up a book to read it carefully.

If Song Miqiu hadn't known that the book was completely blank, he would have really thought he was reading some important book.

She shook her head, feeling a little tired, but since the person next to her didn't move, she eventually looked away and leaned against the bed to continue resting.

I fell asleep without realizing it, and didn't wake up until the next morning.

Song Miqiu wanted to continue strolling, but the Crown Prince, who was standing at the door, blocked her way.

"Why are you out today? Is there something you need?"

"There are indeed some matters, and I hope the divine physician can come with me."

Go out with him?

Why torture yourself?

I finally get a little fresh air, and I'm going to get upset if I have to hang out with this uncomfortable person.

But Song Miqiu knew that there was no choice at all, and could only watch the other party hesitate for a long time.

Just as the crown prince showed a hint of displeasure, another figure appeared not far away.

"The Crown Prince must have something very important to discuss with his master, so why don't we go along and see?"

“I know you’re worried about the child from yesterday, but they’re staying at the clinic, and there are other doctors taking care of them.”

Since Yu Huailin had already said this much, Song Miqiu couldn't refuse, so she sighed and nodded reluctantly.

The atmosphere eased somewhat, which relieved the people standing nearby.

"I was wrong, and I apologize to you here."

The crown prince moved slightly, then straightened up again, staring intently at Yu Huailin beside him.

They didn't seem to care at all, and even scratched their heads and smiled slightly before walking directly behind Song Miqiu and whispering something.

That was indeed how he saw it, but the two people, with their heads close together, only opened their mouths and said nothing else.

Song Miqiu understood everything, and simply followed obediently in one direction.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, a strange sound suddenly came to her ears, causing her to frown again.

"This place seems to be..."

"The divine doctor is right. These are temporary camps for the people of Lincheng."

Upon hearing this, Song Miqiu sensed something was wrong, but he couldn't say anything else. He suppressed his urge to escape and looked directly at the emaciated people.

There was nothing wrong with not observing at first, but upon closer inspection, some interesting things became apparent.

However, Song Miqiu was not a professional doctor and could not be sure, so he could only turn his gaze back to the Crown Prince beside him.

Seeing his furrowed brows, she sighed again.

Has the epidemic spread again?

"That's true."

Upon hearing these four words, Song Miqiu sighed with a hint of helplessness before subtly glancing at Yu Huailin.

They weren't surprised at all, and even walked right to the side.

“Master, you are kind-hearted, but there are just too many people. If you don’t want anything to happen, it would be best to select some people before going down to treat them.”

"Choose, but wouldn't that cause a riot?"

Yu Huailin sighed helplessly before pointing to one of the muscular men.

Understanding what this meant, Song Miqiu could only look at the Crown Prince, hoping he could help her make a choice.

But he didn't say anything, instead looking in another direction with a faint expression.

Although the prince's furrowed brows suggested he was thinking, a closer look revealed that his eyes lacked real sparkle; he was merely putting on an act.

Song Miqiu realized this and could only look away, thinking to himself how to avoid causing a riot or getting involved.

"How about I set conditions for the treatment?"

"The symptoms aren't very obvious right now. Could we find ten relatively conscious people to examine first? If we manage to develop an antidote later, we can think of other methods?"

The group knew this method was feasible, so they nodded and continued walking forward.

But what no one expected was that others had overheard these words, and everyone thought that Song Miqiu wanted to find someone to test the drug on, and their eyes became extremely strange.

Even when passing by children or women and children who are powerless to resist, they will be deliberately avoided.

It's alright now, but once they actually develop an antidote, I'm afraid their attitude will be even worse.

Song Miqiu was certainly aware of this, but at this point, this was the only way; otherwise, he would be the one who got hurt.

Reaching the deepest part, she finally saw an empty courtyard with various medicinal herbs drying in the sun and several doctors who had failed to cure the prince.

Seeing this, how could one not understand what was going on?

Song Miqiu glanced at the Crown Prince out of the corner of his eye and, finding that he made no comment, sighed even more helplessly before walking straight ahead.

"Please trouble Your Highness to bring in ten people as I just instructed."

"That's no problem."

The next moment, he heard a commotion outside and frowned again.

Unfortunately, there was no time to do much at this point. Song Miqiu simply closed his eyes and waited until the person was knocked unconscious and thrown into the yard before letting Yu Huailin put the person into the empty house.

"This illness needs to be observed for several days. Why doesn't Your Highness return and wait for good news?"

"Alright, with the words of a miracle doctor, I can rest assured."

Without giving Song Miqiu a chance to react, the group quickly left the house, but left several others to guard the door.

"Don't let these people hurt the miracle doctor."

"It seems there isn't even a chance to leave without permission."

Upon hearing Yu Huailin's words, she did not respond, but instead turned and walked straight towards the person.

He followed closely into the room, then turned around and closed the door.

The two men exchanged a glance, walked straight to the group, and used the simplest examination method to touch them.

Once he was sure he had guessed correctly, he sighed once again.

"I'll tell outsiders that I have a solution, but I won't treat them for nothing; they have to exchange their precious family members for the opportunity to receive treatment."

"So fast?"

This illness is really not a problem for her, given her systematic approach.

Song Miqiu nodded, then pushed open the door and walked straight to the gate.

"Tell them that there's a daily limit, and the highest bidder wins."

"High price?"

Song Miqiu didn't explain to them, but simply waved his hand, telling them to spread the word immediately, and then began searching for the simplest antibiotics and nutrient solutions.

Already attracting much attention on their first day of entry, the courtyard was now rumored to be able to cure their plague, causing the main gate to be completely blocked.

But when Song Miqiu saw the few copper coins in their hands, he couldn't help but frown.

"You don't even have enough money for my medicine, and you expect me to treat you?"
