Xiao Rongyan, who had been mediating between Xiliang and Wei, rushed towards Longan City.

On the way, Xiao Rongyan rode fast and non-stop for two days and nights. Seeing that they were about to reach Longan City, Yue Shi urged, "Master, please take a rest and change your clothes. If the Emperor sees you like this, he will be deeply upset. Let me go ahead to Longan City to deliver the news!"

"No! Let’s go!" Xiao Rongyan drank a mouthful of water, threw the sheepskin water bag to Yue Shi, and galloped towards Longan City.

Emperor Yan, Murong Yu, could no longer rise. He leaned back against a cushion, his hair loose. His breathing was labored. His delicate and handsome features were pale without a trace of blood, and his forehead and nose tip were covered with fine sweat. Even some white hair had grown at his temples.

Murong Li was extremely anxious. Seeing the Imperial Physician reapply medicine and bandage the wound, he impatiently asked, "How is he?"

Feng Yao, holding a lacquered tray with medicine for the Emperor of Yan, trembled, eyes red.

The elderly Imperial Physician looked up at the Emperor of Yan, who softly said, "Speak the truth!"

The Imperial Physician then shook his head. "There is no improvement. His Majesty already has toxins in his body. Fortunately, a famous doctor treated him, providing slight improvement. But the medicine that treats the toxins also makes it difficult for his blood to coagulate when wounded. His Majesty has started to develop a fever. This is a bad sign."

Murong Li clenched his fists. If not to save him... how could Father have gotten shot!
