The night deepened. Li Mingfang and Mrs. Li stayed by Li Mingjun's side, too afraid to sleep.
Mrs. Li would periodically touch Li Mingjun's forehead.
"Mingfang, what should we do? Mingjun's forehead is getting hotter by the minute!" Mrs. Li asked worriedly.
Li Mingfang was at a loss. They had already administered all the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor.
Li Mingfang suddenly remembered that Di Shaowei had once gifted her a bottle of pills as a New Year's present, claiming they could cure any ailment.
She had consistently been practicing martial arts and seldom felt unwell, so she hadn't used those pills yet.
Li Mingfang abruptly stood up and rushed out of the room.
Mrs. Li was startled by Li Mingfang's sudden action.
"Mingfang, where are you going?" She asked, raising her voice towards Li Mingfang's retreating figure.
"I'm going to fetch the medicine!" Li Mingfang replied loudly.
