Zhao Junyao was about to protest but was stopped by Xia Ruqing's slender finger on his lips.
"Shh, don't speak, just listen to me!"
"Let's go find a doctor!"
Jiangnan is known for its famous doctors, not much inferior to the Imperial Physicians.
The most urgent thing now is to stabilize Zhao Junyao's condition; everything else is secondary.
