When Yanhuai returned to Yu Jinxi's room, she felt feverish again, and it was worse than last time.
His whole body was hot, and his face was so red that it seemed like he could bleed.
The doctor prescribed a prescription, but Yu Jinxi gritted his teeth tightly and couldn't get the medicine in at all.
Mother Zhang looked anxiously, "How can this be good? If the fever continues like this, people will be burned out."
Zhang's mother was anxious, and Yanhuai was even more anxious. There was anger in her questioning voice, "Is there any other way?"
The doctor said in a tentative tone, "Why don't you get a bucket of warm water for Miss to soak in first?"
Hearing this, Mother Zhang and Grandma Qian immediately followed the doctor's instructions and asked someone to get hot water first.
After Yanhuai let the doctor go out, he immediately started to take off Yu Jinxi's clothes. After taking off her outer shirt, he paused to untie her clothes and then stopped.
After a while, Mother Zhang and Aunt Qian finished the bathtub. Yanhuai picked up Yu Jinxi and threw her into the bathtub.
She was wearing a thin undershirt, and as soon as she entered the water, the clothes clung to her body, and the narrow shoulders and the curvature of her chest were clearly outlined.
Yu Jinxi fell into a semi-conscious state, with no strength left in her body. She was like a limp noodle when she entered the water. She could sink to the bottom of the water if she let go of her hand.
Yanhuai could only hold her, so that his arms were completely submerged in the water, and his soaked sleeves clung tightly to his arms. He seemed to be holding Yu Jinxi with nothing. He clearly had no idea, but The delicate touch still made his ears turn red unconsciously.
Seeing that Yanhuai was really embarrassed holding Yu Jinxi, Zhang's mother and Aunt Qian immediately took over and took Yu Jinxi over. But as soon as they touched Yu Jinxi, she suddenly started to flutter, and one hand was still holding Yanhuai's arm tightly. He didn't let go, and kept shouting, "Yan Xiaosi..."
Yanhuai's heart softened, and he hugged her over again, leaned over, put his face against Yu Jinxi's, and gently responded, "I'm here, don't be afraid!"
Yu Jinxi seemed to hear his voice and became quiet again.
Seeing this, Mother Zhang and Grandma Qian looked at each other with complicated expressions.
Yu Jinxi took a hot bath for a while, and the heat on his body finally dropped.
Mother Zhang and Aunt Qian brought a blanket and put it over the bathtub. Yanhuai groped in the water with his hands and took off her wet clothes, then picked her up and wrapped her in the blanket.
Although he didn't look at her body, his hands touched everything in the water that he shouldn't.
After putting Yu Jinxi on the bed, Yanhuai gave her medicine again. At this time, she no longer clenched her teeth tightly, feeding and drinking, but her eyebrows were furrowed tightly.
Yanhuai saw that she was really suffering, so he fed her a very small sugar cube.
After all this tossing, it was almost dawn, Yu Jinxi finally stopped feeling hot, and Yanhuai finally let go of his hanging heart. He didn't stay any longer, got up and left.
Mother Zhang and Grandma Qian were guarding the door and opened their eyes immediately when they heard the movement.
Yanhuai opened the door and walked out, whispering, "I have to go, you go in and guard!"
Seeing that his eyebrows were tired and his eyes were scarlet, Nanny Qian said, "The food has been prepared in the kitchen and has been kept hot. The prince has worked hard after staying up all night. Why don't you eat before leaving."
As soon as Aunt Qian finished speaking, Mother Zhang was about to leave to prepare, but was stopped by Yanhuai, "There's no need to be busy, I have something else to do. I'll see her later. You guys take good care of her, and if anything happens, call someone to the mansion."
Aunt Qian and Mama Zhang looked at each other and nodded together, indicating that they had taken note of it.
Yan Huai stopped staying and left.
He's not kidding, he's really busy.
As soon as Yan Huai returned to the mansion, people came to the palace not long after.
The leader was Xiao Xiazi, followed by the imperial doctor. He told Yanhuai with a smile that he was here on the order of the emperor.
Emperor Xuan was very worried when he learned that he was ill. He not only sent an imperial doctor to treat him, but also brought many medicinal materials from the palace.
"Your Highness, the Emperor is really concerned about you. You also know how precious the medicinal materials are now. But when the Emperor heard that you were sick, he immediately took the medicinal materials from his private treasury and sent them to you. I hope you can Cure your illness.”
"These medicinal materials were given to you by the emperor from between his teeth. You must not let down the emperor's kindness!"
Little Eunuch Xia said with sincerity, and Yan Huai nodded feebly. His face was pale, and his eyes were scarlet after staying up all night. He looked like he was terminally ill, hanging with only one breath left to die. An ordinary person.
Little Eunuch Xia was afraid that he would be infected and wanted to stay away from him, so when he saw his appearance, he subconsciously stepped back without really seeing his appearance clearly, and waved to the imperial doctor to treat Yanhuai.
The imperial doctor covered his face with a scarf and walked respectfully to Yanhuai to diagnose his pulse.
After a while, the imperial doctor got up.
Little Eunuch Xia was surprised, "Is this the end?"
The imperial doctor asked displeasedly, "Don't you believe in my medical skills?"
"Of course not." Little Eunuch Xia immediately retorted, and then asked, "How is the prince's condition?"
The imperial doctor glanced at Yanhuai, then shook his head at Little Eunuch Xia, and said, "The prince has great blessings. If you take good care of him, everything will be fine."
This statement confused Eunuch Xia, but Yanhuai smiled sarcastically, and then said weakly, "Qingfeng... seeing off the guests!"
Although his voice was weak, it was not difficult to hear the disdain for the imperial doctor in his tone.
Yanhuai had already opened his mouth to drive people away, so Eunuch Xia couldn't keep him any longer. He said a few compliments and hurriedly left Yanhuai's house with the imperial doctor.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the door was closed, Little Eunuch Xia heard something being smashed inside, and an angry and unwilling shout, "Quack doctor!"
Little Eunuch Xia immediately raised his eyes to look at the imperial doctor beside him and asked in surprise, "What's going on?"
The imperial doctor's face was full of sorrow and he sighed, "The prince's condition is serious. I cannot cure his illness with my little power. If the prince is blessed and can meet famous doctors, he might be able to be cured."
When Xiao Xia's father-in-law heard this, he had an idea.
It seems that the prince's condition is true, he is really seriously ill.
Eunuch Xiao Xia truthfully reported Yan Huai's "illness", and Emperor Xuan was shocked. He didn't expect that Yan Huai was really so seriously ill. He immediately sent people to the mansion to treat Yan Huai, and he couldn't wait to give away the treasures in his private treasury. All the medicines were delivered to Yanhuai's mansion.
It wasn't that he felt sorry for his nephew, but that Yanhuai really couldn't die at this time. If he dies, then his brother who is far away guarding the border will have no shackles. He has not yet obtained the 100,000 soldiers. If Yanhuai dies at this time, he will no longer be able to control King Zhang.
Emperor Xuan was worried about this matter, and the second prince's illness was also reported to the palace.
When Emperor Xuan heard this, his expression changed again and again, and he asked in shock, "When did smallpox break out in the capital again?"
