Gu Yanfei acted as if she did not hear him and walked to the window facing the street with her compass in her hand. She looked up at the sun outside the window and pointed to the space at the side of the window. "Move him here."
The attendant didn't move, but Xiao Shi did.
Xiao Shi was as thin as a bamboo pole, but he was surprisingly strong. He lifted Imperial Duke Wei and his chair and easily carried them to the window. He then moved an inch to the side according to Gu Yanfei's instructions.
Sunlight shone through the window and onto Imperial Duke Wei's head and clothes.
Everyone did not know what she was going to do and subconsciously held their breaths.
"The trigram Li is in the third area." Gu Yanfei put the palm-sized compass back into her sleeve. "Three needles will do."
As she spoke, she took out a needle from the old doctor's bag. It was a full three inches long and hummed crisply when it trembled.
