"Three days?"
The Eldest Princess was somewhat puzzled, but a sliver of hope sparked within her.
"You really have a way?"
'If she could truly cure Emperor Muwu, then forget three days—thirty days, or even three years, would be no issue at all!'
Sensing her train of thought, Ye Chutang shook her head and poured a bucket of cold water on her hopes.
"Your Majesty's illness is irreversible. Even I can only do my best to help manage his condition."
The light in the Eldest Princess's eyes slowly faded.
She sighed. "Just as I thought..."
'In truth, she had expected as much. If the illness were so easy to treat, Chu Qiyuan wouldn't have been struggling with it for so many years.'
'It was just that, in her heart, she had started to see Ye Chutang as all-powerful, which was why she had felt a glimmer of hope for the first time in a long while.'
'If even she was powerless... then all they could do was their best and leave the rest to fate.'
