But when the princess put away the golden needle, she saw that the old prince moved, then turned his head, and the eyes he opened were no longer as cloudy and lifeless as before.
Things are getting better!
It’s really getting better!
Everyone in the west hall was excited. Even those who had malicious intentions towards Leng Xiao were excited when they saw this miracle.
The old princess held back the tears for a long time. When she saw him raising his hand to look for her, the tears finally started to flow down her face. She lay on the old prince's wrist and cried uncontrollably.
She thought he would never be able to raise his hand to look for her as soon as he woke up like before, but she didn't expect that he could still stroke her hair.
The empress dowager and the emperor looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. The emperor ordered someone to take the emperor's grandson out first, and let Master Wei take him back to the East Palace to continue sleeping. He was afraid that the old prince's illness would only improve temporarily and he could not leave yet.
The old princess grabbed Leng Xiao's hand, the tears in her eyes were not yet dry, and there was a trace of expectation in her nervousness, "Will he... get better?"
Leng Xiao held her hand instead, using his strength to comfort and reassure her, "At least, he will be alive for these two or three days. Whether he can get better depends on subsequent treatment and his own willpower."
"Really?" Tears welled up in the old princess's eyes again, "Really? You can't lie to me."
"I'm not lying to you, I will stay here and continue to treat him. I hope he will get better."
After hearing this, the emperor frowned slightly, feeling that she didn't know how to speak. She was almost out of breath just now. You prick her a few times and say you hope she will get better. What if she doesn't get better?
If you speak carelessly, you will harm yourself.
The emperor called Leng Xiao out to talk alone. Although her medical skills were good, he did not rule out her wanting to take credit.
When he arrived at the auxiliary hall next door, the emperor sat down and asked, "Tell me truthfully whether the old prince's illness is really likely to get better."
Leng Xiao said: "Father, judging from the current situation, the reason why the old prince is in danger this time is his sudden high fever. This high fever is because... it is also related to carbuncle. The carbuncle is infected and festers, hurting the lungs. I just took medicine. ...The main thing is to seal some of his acupuncture points with gold needles, and then I will use medicine to treat it, so I said there will be no problem in these two or three days. As for whether it will get better in the future, we still have to observe it."
It was difficult for her to explain myocarditis caused by bacterial infection to the emperor, so she could only use a relatively common explanation so that he could roughly understand it.
After hearing her explanation, the emperor didn't understand anything, but seeing that she was confident, he felt a little relieved and asked: "What did you want to do when you came to the palace that day?"
Leng Xiao said: "I heard from Mr. Wei a few days ago that the old prince was ill. Mr. Wei also told me that the old prince supported and cared for His Highness in the past. His Highness could rise to the forefront so quickly in the army, and it is indispensable for him to do so. He was promoted and encouraged by the prince, so I thought it would be good to come and check on the situation, or perhaps relieve the old man's pain."
The emperor looked at her, "Do you really think so?"
"nature!"
The emperor slightly nodded his head and said, "Because you have such a heart, then you can continue to stay here to treat his old man. If you need any medicine, or if you need the hospital's cooperation, just make arrangements."
Leng Xiaofu said, "Thank you, Father!"
The emperor glanced at her again. He always had complicated feelings towards this daughter-in-law. He didn't like her on weekdays, but when it was critical and dangerous, she would stand up and solve everything. Thorough, this is admirable.
Sometimes I dislike it, sometimes I admire it, it's so contradictory.
