Peace Offering To The Cursed Prince - Chapter 377

At this moment Jeffery looked like a beggar, his clothes were soaked with water, his hair seems to have not come in contact with the comb for a week. He was also injured d he supported himself with a stick.

“I am asking the horse in the name of the king,” Jeffery said. Of course, he had no money with him.

*puff…* the man started laughing, of course, he did not believe Jeffery. This man was just a commoner who managed to own a horse. How could he give it away?

“What king? Do I look stupid to you?” The man honestly thought that Jeffery was trying to trick him out of his horse. Seeing the man’s behavior Jeffery frown.

He wish to go inside and find some lord he could convince but Jeffery knew that no one with a good reputation will be here, this was only a small inn.

“I am not lying to you, but I understand your doubt. How about this, I am on my way to the Palace and I have to deliver something as soon as possible. Take me to the palace and I promise you will be rewarded for this,” Jeffery said.

“You do think I am a fool, what if you hit me with your stick while I am riding,” the man was not convinced. Avalo royal city has just recovered from an internal conflict a lot of bad people were still walking about.

“How about I give you the thing I need to deliver, when you get to the gate, tell them it for his majesty and Jeffery sent it over,” Jeffery was desperate if he was healthy then he would not bother himself talking to this man, he would have simple snatch the horse.

Unfortunately, Jeffery was not fit for sure violent at the moment. It is not that Jeffery was not confident of beating the man and anyone who comes to help but that will take a lot of time.

When the man heard Jeffery’s words he become convinced. If Jeffery was just after the horse then he will not offer to hand over the message.

This meant that the man(Jeffery) in front of him(the owner of the horse,) must be desperate to deliver a message. Moreover,r the name Jeffery was well known especially when it relate to the king. If this man was not lying the horse owner knew he could not afford the consequence.

“I will take you, but you will have to throw your stick away and I will search and collect any weapon on you,” the man said. Although the man finally trusted Jeffery’s words he still guarded against him.

Jeffery agreed immediately, if he knew handing over the package to the man will make him believe him, he should have offered that from the start. After searching him the man helped Jeffrey onto the horse before he joined him.

“As fast as you can please,” Jeffery said. He knew he had to get to the palace before anything went wrong with Ellen.

When they got to the palace the gate was immediately pulled open when they saw Jeffery.

The man who had to end his horse was so happy that he did not offend the king.

Jeffery gave the order and the man was rewarded. It was a difficult task for Jeffery to climb the stairs and got to the king’s chamber. As of this time, lady magret and Ericsson already left the place.

There was no way lady Magret will stand outside to guide the door, she also did not want to go back to the chamber and watch Sebastian’s shameful deed.

.”your Majesty,” Jeffery’s voice was low, he already caught a cold after wearing cold clothes all day.

Sebastian was watching his sunshine, her pulse seems to have improved so he hold on to faith. Jeffery’s voice had been very low but thanks to Sebastian’s good hearing he heard him and went to open the door. As soon as Jeffery was sure that the person at the door was Sebastian he reach out and handed over the small bag.

“It is as her highness had said,” Jeffery used all the strength he had to hand over the bag. As soon as Sebastian took the bag from him, Jeffery felt his world goes blank and lost consciousness.

Sebastian was shocked, Jeffery was someone strong so seeing him like this he knew that the man would have gone through a lot but at this point, the king only cares for his sunshine.

“Call the physician,” Jeffery inform the guard that was standing there. “Get the servant to move him to his room,” Sebastian instructed.

After which he shut the door and walked back to Ellen. “See, the herb is here and you will be fine soon,” the king said.

There was a special way to prepare the herb and luckily the royal family did not have just one outstanding physician.

A few moments later, the physician arrived with his assistant and the things that they will be needed to prepare the herb. A bowl of water was brought and the herb was washed before it was put into the mortar and beaten hard.

After beating it for some time the physician took the leaf and squeezed out the water. Then he adds a few drops of other liquid.

“Your majesty, it is ready,” the physician said. Although his step seems very simple, one had to apply the right amount of pressure when beating the leaf, if it was too hard or over-beaten the mortar will absolve the liquid from the leaf and the herb will have been wasted.

“I will feed it to her,” Sebastian collected the cup and poured a bit of the liquid into her mouth. He then closed her mouth and waited for it to get swallowed.

Sebastian was very gentle and patient in feeding her the medicine. He was afaird that if even a drop was wasted it will no longer be effective. The physician and his assistant watched in amazement. If they had not witnessed this with their eyes they will never believe that the king had this gentle and patient side to him.

“What happened to their fierce king?”
