After holding on and pretending, Zhao Mengqi felt weak when he returned to the protection of the guards.
Before reaching the cabin door, his feet gave way and he almost fell. Fortunately, Wanwan helped him in time.
Seeing that everyone around him became nervous again, Zhao Mengqi smiled and said, "I'm fine..."
But a strong feeling of fatigue surged over him, making him feel more and more drowsy. He shook his head with all his strength, "I just feel very tired and want to sleep..."
Good guy, before I finished speaking, I really closed my eyes.
It was fine just now, why is it not working anymore all of a sudden?
Isn't it a return to glory? ?
Wanwan suppressed her fear and impatience and quickly took Zhao Mengqi's pulse.
The pulse is steady and strong, and it doesn't look like something is wrong.
It's not surprising that Wanwan knows a little about medical skills. The educated people these days, especially those who don't have to worry about the imperial examinations, have a wide range of knowledge. They have some knowledge of medical astrology, arithmetic strategies, etc.
However, Wanwan's understanding was not modest, but she really knew a little bit. She did not diagnose anything abnormal in Zhao Mengqi's body. Looking at his smooth breathing and peaceful face, it seemed as if he was just asleep.
Unable to find a problem, he had to have Zhao Mengqi, who was sleeping, carried to the cabin couch and told the fleet to speed up to the city where the government office was located. Then the three young ladies stood by worriedly.
Two-quarters of an hour later, the fleet arrived at the pier outside the south gate of Zicheng.
At this time, the government office had received the news of King Yan's assassination. The Imperial Army was clearing the area near Zicheng and imposing martial law. Wu Qian and a group of officials were anxiously waiting at the dock.
When he saw King Yan lying on a stretcher and being carefully carried off the ship, Wu Qian was so frightened that he was confused, frightened and angry. He could no longer care about his moral integrity and questioned the entourage sternly.
"Didn't I say that His Highness only suffered a small injury? How could it be like this!? What do you guards do for a living!? You can actually let assassins go out of their way to hurt His Highness. If anything happens to His Highness, I will definitely kill you. A head is placed on the neck to pay for the crime!..."
Wu Qiong's upright and upright bodyguards were scolded bloody, but they could only shrink their heads and dare not say a word. Qu Moxuan, Xue Jin, Shi Huai and other military generals who hurried over also looked disgusted.
Finding no one responded, Wu Qian also realized that asking questions at this time would not help, so he turned around and said, "Send the order, all the military camps inside and outside the city are on combat readiness, and at the same time, troops are sent to block all water and land transportation around Pingjiang City, and all city gates are closed. If there is no Following the ultimatum signed by the Appeasement Department, no one was allowed in or out. The personnel of the Imperial City Department and the Palace Front Department immediately searched the entire city. All official and private residences must not be missed. Even if they dug three feet into the ground and turned Pingjiang City over, The traitor assassin must also be caught!"
In fact, Wu Qian was just the pacifier of western Zhejiang. Under normal circumstances, he could only command the local garrison and Xiang army, and could not command the three government offices and the Imperial City Department. But at this time, Zhao Mengqi was unconscious, and he was acting as a prime minister. Respected by Zhao Mengqi, Qu Moxuan and other generals had no intention of objecting to taking over military power in an emergency.
Just as the generals were waiting to go out to receive orders, an objectionable voice suddenly sounded.
"Wait!" The voice was delicate and calm.
Wu Qian turned his head in surprise and found that the person who spoke was actually Wanwan. He couldn't help but sink his face, "Ms. Jiang, is there anything wrong with my handling? This is a government matter. Even if you think there is something wrong, you are not qualified to interfere! Think about it! Since you are young, I won’t argue with you this time, so please step aside.”
The relationship between Zhao Mengqi and Wanwan was well known to everyone, but for Wu Qian, even if Wanwan was the official Princess of Yan, she should not have any say in military and political matters.
Wanwan pursed her lips hard, glanced at Zhao Mengqi who was lying down, her eyes became firmer, and she looked at Wu Qian without flinching, "Mr. Wu, it's not that I don't understand what you said, and I don't understand it either." I have no intention of interfering in government affairs, but I am afraid that a large-scale arrest is not in line with His Highness’ original intention, so I would like to ask Mr. Wu to think again.”
"Oh? What do you mean by this? Did His Highness ever explain it?"
Wu Qian could not help but feel a hint of admiration in his eyes when he saw that Wanwan was not timid in the face of his scolding. Instead, she looked dignified and dared to argue with reason.
No wonder His Highness King Yan is so enamored with this woman. It does seem a bit unusual. Listen,
It wouldn't hurt to hear what she had to say.
Wanwan smiled slightly and spoke calmly, "His Highness passed out before he could explain anything more. However, after the assassination, the first thing His Highness thought of was to comfort the people first, hold on to his injuries, and take the risk to show up to declare peace to the people. , I just don’t want to add too much trouble and burden to the people because of my own affairs.”
"Furthermore, if I think about it, the person behind the assassination of His Highness is not an ordinary person. I'm afraid he can't be caught by searching. At most, he can only catch some of the people who carried out the execution. It doesn't mean much. It's really not worth going to war. , what's more, Commander Chang Geng has already led people from the East 5th Squadron to search near the incident site. If they can't find any clues, searching the whole city now will be like looking for a needle in a haystack. After all, there are more than a million people in Pingjiang City. .”
"For a few young people, it is really not worth the gain to make millions of people panic and uneasy. Besides, His Highness should be fine. I paid close attention all the way and found no signs of worsening of the injury. I thought that , we should still keep it calm for now and wait until His Highness wakes up before making a decision."
In addition to these, there is another main reason that Wanwan did not say out loud.
She came from a military family and knew the importance of military power. Even if Zhao Mengqi couldn't see things, she would not allow others to get involved. Although Wu Qian was loyal to King Yan, it was best not to start this thing.
Wu Qian was so angry just now that he didn't think too much. After hearing what Wanwan said, he slowly calmed down. Then he realized this and couldn't help but look at Wanwan with admiration.
She is calm when faced with important events, cautious and pliable in dealing with things, sensible and righteous, strong and soft at the same time, and has a virtuous demeanor. If she can become the head wife of King Yan, she will undoubtedly be a good match and a good helper, but her family background is a bit bad, so I'm afraid it won't be easy to handle. ah……
Uh, why did I think of this?
Wu subconsciously realized that he had gone astray, and couldn't help but laugh at himself, and then said seriously, "Thanks to Mrs. Jiang for reminding me, Mrs. Jiang still understands justice and sees things well, but I lost my perspective and handled it improperly. I asked you Madam Jiang thanks you."
Seeing Wu Qian really bowing to him, Wanwan hurriedly stepped aside and said, "Mr. Wu said something serious, how dare you take on the role of concubine? Mr. Wu is the elder of the dynasty, and he has his own reasons for doing things. I am just familiar with His Highness as a person, so it is not worth mentioning." "
Wu Qian twisted his beard and smiled, turned around and gave the order again, "All troops are guarding their barracks and are not allowed to go out without orders. Other matters are as usual. The city gates do not need to be closed for the time being. We only need to strengthen inspections and inspections..."
After an interlude, Zhao Mengqi and Qian Duo were finally sent to the back house of the government office, where more than a dozen famous doctors in the city were already waiting.
Qian Duo was unconscious all the time, and blood oozed from the wound from time to time. After the doctors made the diagnosis, they did not dare to deal with it easily. Firstly, they were really not good at trauma, and secondly, the injured person was of high status. If there was a mistake, they could not afford it.
Among the dozen or so doctors, you look at me and I look at you, but they can't come up with a treatment plan. Wanwan probably understands their concerns and can't help but frown.
Zhao Mengqi fell asleep, and Zhao Hen and Zhao Fei were not decisive. Now she was the only one who could make the decision, but why didn't she have any scruples?
No matter what decision she made, if something happened to Qian Duo in the end, someone would definitely say that she deliberately used tricks to compete for her position next to Zhao Mengqi. This kind of thing was not uncommon in the harem.
At this time, the best choice for her is to stay out of the matter and not get involved in the cause and effect.
But Wanwan did not choose to avoid it, and asked the doctors, "Are her injuries life-threatening?"
An older doctor was pushed out. After some careful thinking, he said, "The arrow pierced the body, and the bones and muscles were damaged. Fortunately, no organs were involved. As long as the bleeding is stopped, and the decoction is given, there will be no problem to keep it stable for two days." , but trauma is often accompanied by trauma. Now that the weather is hot, I am afraid that the wound will soon rot and become pus..."
"Okay! I understand."
Wanwan decided to let the doctors do conservative treatment first to stabilize the injury, and the real treatment would wait until Dr. Chong arrived.
I am afraid that most doctors in the world today are not sure about this serious trauma, and can only rely half on treatment and half on destiny.
But Imperial Physician Chong took hundreds of wounded soldiers
He has already achieved certain accomplishments in the field of surgery. For example, Qian Long was pierced in the sole of his foot. After his treatment, he is now better and has no sequelae. He just needs to recover slowly.
Well, in just one or two months, all the Qian brothers and sisters had holes in their bodies from arrows. Could it be because of their surnames?
Today’s money has a hole in the middle...
Later, the doctor used acupuncture and decoction to stop the bleeding of Qian Duo, and then cut off the arrow shaft, but did not touch the part inside the body.
Wanwan and the other three worked together to clean Qian Duo's body and wounds, disinfected the area around the wound again with alcohol, and finally applied gold sore medicine.
Everything that needs to be done is done, just waiting for Dr. Chong to arrive.
As for Zhao Mengqi, after the doctors finished the diagnosis, their faces were full of surprise and disbelief.
"Ordinarily, His Highness Prince Yan's injury does not look as serious as Madam Qian's, but it is actually more dangerous. Judging from the depth of the wound, if it goes one step further, it is the heart."
"Not to mention this, but by forcefully pulling out the arrow, it is almost like being hit by an arrow again, and the wound becomes even worse. Generally speaking, this will cause bleeding and is difficult to treat."
"But His Highness has no symptoms of excessive blood loss. Judging from his pulse, he is in good health. He is stronger and stronger than ordinary people. What's even weirder is that His Highness's wounds seem to be healing..."
"Healed?" Wanwan couldn't believe it, staring at the old doctor with piercing eyes, "You mean to say that His Highness is fine? Then why has he been unconscious?"
"This... in our opinion, His Highness is not in a coma, but is in a deep sleep. Although it is possible to wake him up with acupuncture, His Highness is obviously getting better now. To be cautious, it is better not to move without permission and just keep observing."
The old doctor was trembling, but he still gave the advice that everyone had discussed. At this time, they would rather be in vain than take the responsibility.
There will be nothing wrong if you don't do anything. Since His Highness King Yan's life is not in danger and can get better without treatment, why should everyone be fussy?
Although Wanwan was still very worried, she couldn't figure out what was happening to Zhao Mengqi, so she felt the pulse herself. After thinking for a while, she gritted her teeth and decided to wait until Dr. Chong arrived.
Four hours later, when night fell, Imperial Physician Chong arrived from Wujiang with Qin Duan and several other young disciples.
After being taken to the courtyard where King Yan was, Dr. Chong couldn't wait to run to the bedside. When he saw King Yan lying motionless, still wearing blood-stained clothes, and there was no smell of medicine in the room, he felt a thump in his heart and shouted "Oh no!" .
"What's going on? How is His Highness's condition? Hasn't he been given any treatment? Even if no one is injured, we can strengthen the body, strengthen the body, calm the mind and replenish the blood. How can we keep His Highness in a coma!?"
Wanwan, who was standing by, quickly replied, "Except for the emergency disinfection to stop the bleeding when he was first injured, there was indeed no treatment afterwards. The doctors in the city all said that His Highness was not seriously ill and was not in a coma, but fell asleep." .”
"Asleep? Isn't this nonsense? Who can sleep with such a serious injury? Quacks, a bunch of quacks who deserve to be killed!"
While cursing, Dr. Chong had already grabbed Zhao Mengqi's hand and started to take his pulse.
After a while, Imperial Physician Chong's expression became increasingly weird, "It's strange, Your Highness seems to be just sleeping..."
With doubts, he opened the linen cloth covering Zhao Mengqi's chest and began to examine the wound.
The blood around the wound has long been cleaned up, and there is still a faint smell of alcohol. The wound is slightly open, and the shape is a bit scary, but there is no blood inside, and it is very clean. After turning it over, you can even see the difference between the skin and muscle fascia. Color, and the edges appear a little crystal clear, making people feel like they are healing.
"this!?"
Dr. Chong was dumbfounded. This state could only appear after being injured for many days. This was what he had observed in the captured and wounded soldiers who had survived on their own. ..
"Imperial Physician, is your Highness okay?" Wanwan waited for a long time and finally couldn't hold it any longer.
Dr. Chong hesitated, "It should be fine."
Wanwan didn't want to be vague, "What do you mean it should be fine, how can you
Do you have the same tone as those quack doctors? "
Well, this quack doctor was what I called out just now. I didn't expect that I would be like them. I really slapped myself in the face.
"Ms. Jiang, don't be surprised. Your Highness has never seen such a scene before. All in all, everything is a sign of recovery. Although I don't know why, perhaps, Your Highness is the founder of the Song Dynasty and has his own divine ancestors. Bless me."
Except for the divine intervention, Dr. Chong couldn't think of any other reason.
At this time, Zhao Mengqi suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the person in front of him sleepily, "Hey, Chongrong, why are you here?"
"Lang Jun, are you awake? Are you okay?" Wanwan was extremely surprised.
"Your Highness, did you forget that you were injured and then summoned the minister?" Dr. Chong was also surprised, but he was a little worried that King Yan would have other symptoms due to his injury, such as losing his mind and going crazy.
Zhao Mengqi blinked and came to his senses, "Something happened. Why is everything okay? The wound hurts and itches. I'm still hungry. By the way, how is Qian Duo!?"
