Xiaoxin gasped weakly and slowly said, "King Rui wants smallpox to break out extensively within the city. He... he doesn't want to spare the lives of these villagers."
"I… I'm telling the truth…"
Having mustered the strength to finish this sentence, Xiaoxin fainted.
Su Luo motioned for the Imperial Physician Wei.
Imperial Physician Wei immediately ran over, anxious to take Su Luo's pulse.
Su Luo quickly gestured with her hand and said, "Not me, look at him! He's fainted!"
Under the dim night sky, Imperial Physician Wei's face reddened slightly and he quickly, as if to hide his embarrassment, turned to examine Xiaoxin.
"He still has a pulse, but it's very weak; he needs proper care!"
Su Luo furrowed her brows slightly and glanced at Jiang Fei.
Understanding her, Jiang Fei immediately said, "I will make sure he is well looked after."
Without avoiding Imperial Physician Wei, Su Luo asked Jiang Fei, "Do you think what he said was true or false?"
