Li Luo lay on the bed. After coughing for a long time, his sallow face turned red and the redness lasted for a long time.
The imperial physicians examined Li Luo in turn, then stepped aside and spoke in low voices to their colleagues about their opinions. The atmosphere became inexplicably tense because of the imperial physicians' actions.
Yu Xiaoxiao sat aside, listening to the imperial doctors' conversation for a long time with her ears perked up, but she didn't understand the last sentence.
"What on earth are you talking about?" Yu Xiaoxiao muttered softly.
Gu Xinglang quietly patted Yu Xiaoxiao's hand and whispered, "They are discussing the prescription."
Yu Xiao: "How long will this discussion last? We are trying to cure diseases and save lives, but there are so many different opinions. Is this really a good thing?"
Gu Xinglang looked at Jiang Zhuojun standing in front of the bed, bending over to listen to Li Luo, and asked Yu Xiaoxiao: "Princess, do you have a way to cure Li Luo's illness?"
Yu Xiaoxiao shook her head, "This isn't surgery."
Gu Xinglang held his wife's hand and said, "Then there is nothing we can do."
"Let them talk in another tent," Li Luo said to Jiang Zhuojun at this time.
"Your Majesty, please wait a moment," Jiang Zhuojun advised Li Luo in a low voice, "There are three more imperial doctors. Once they have examined your Majesty's pulse, I will take them to other tents immediately."
Li Luo closed his eyes and remained silent again.
Jiang Zhuojun waved to the imperial physician waiting nearby to come forward.
Yu Xiaoxiao said to Gu Xinglang: "Li Luo is in a terrible mood. ()"
Gu Xinglang could only sigh. He had finally obtained the throne and was about to realize his ambitions, but he fell seriously ill. No matter who encountered this, they would not be in a good mood.
After the last three doctors finished examining Li Luo's pulse, Jiang Zhuojun led the doctors out of the tent. Gu Xinglang patted Yu Xiaoxiao's hand, and the young couple walked to Li Luo's bed.
Li Luo saw a smile on Yu Xiaoxiao's face and asked, "Why is the princess here again?"
Yu Xiaoxiao puffed up her cheeks and said, "I came to see you right after dinner. Do you have any objections?"
Li Luo smiled and asked Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang to sit down.
After Gu Xinglang sat down, he asked, "How do you feel today, Your Majesty?"
"It's still the same." Li Luo's smile faded a little, and he said, "I asked Zhuo Jun not to say it, but he still couldn't help it."
"You can't say that," Yu Xiaoxiao quickly spoke up for Jiang Zhuojun, "If you're sick, what's wrong with seeing a few more doctors? Do you still want to ride a horse to fight? My father is as strong as an ox, and he wouldn't do that."
Gu Xinglang pulled his wife's sleeve and said, "When you comfort people, you don't have to belittle your father every time, right?"
Li Luo was actually amused by Yu Xiao and said, "I can't beat Mo Wen even if I go up."
"That's what I mean," Yu Xiaoxiao pinched the back of Gu Xinglang's hand in revenge and said to Li Luo, "Your task now is to take good care of your body. Xiao Jiang is very worried about you. Well, Xiao Gu and I are also worried about you."
Li Luo looked up at the plain tent ceiling and said, "Princess, are you advising me not to follow the army anymore?"
Gu Xinglang said, "The weather is so cold, and Your Majesty is coughing badly, why don't you go to Yanhui City to recuperate for a while."
"After we kill Mo Wen, we will all go to Yanhui City to see you," Yu Xiao said, looking up at the top of the tent and asked Li Luo, "It's just a white tent, what's so good about it?"
Li Luo said, "It looks like the curtains of a mourning hall."
Yu Xiaoxiao didn't understand what a drapery was, but she knew about the mourning hall. "Pfft, pfft," the princess said to Li Luo after spitting three times, "Do you want Xiao Jiang to cry to death?"
Jiang Zhuojun walked into the tent again, holding a bowl of medicine in his hand. He walked to the bed and whispered, "Your Majesty, the medicine is ready."
Gu Xinglang reached out and helped Li Luo sit up. He took the quilt and placed it behind Li Luo's back so that Li Luo could sit against it.
Jiang Zhuojun half-knelt down and tried to feed Li Luo the medicine.
Yu Xiaoxiao saw Jiang Zhuojun's hand now and called out softly, "Xiao Jiang, what happened to your hand?"
Li Luo and Gu Xinglang both looked at Jiang Zhuojun's hand. Jiang Zhuojun's hand holding the medicine bowl was red.
"Put the bowl down quickly!" Li Luo's voice suddenly became higher.
Gu Xinglang took the bowl of medicine from Jiang Zhuojun and placed it beside the bed.
"It's all red from the burns," Yu Xiaoxiao pulled Jiang Zhuojun's hand over to look at it, which was a little red and swollen.
"I got burned accidentally," Jiang Zhuojun smiled and said nonchalantly.
Yu Xiaoxiao took out the medical kit she had brought with her, searched for the ointment in the Fengtian Imperial Palace that was specially used to treat burns, and wanted to apply it to Jiang Zhuojun.
"Your Majesty, please take the medicine. You can't drink it when it's cold," Jiang Zhuojun urged Li Luo to take the medicine.
Gu Xinglang took a porcelain spoon and tried to feed Li Luo the medicine.
Li Luo shook his head and said, "This medicine is too bitter. You can suffer less if you drink it all in one go."
Gu Xinglang put down the porcelain spoon and brought the medicine bowl to Li Luo's mouth.
Yu Xiaoxiao was busy applying burn ointment to Jiang Zhuojun, muttering, "How could you be careless? You did it on purpose, didn't you?"
Jiang Zhuojun shook his head at Yu Xiaoxiao and said, "I'm fine, Princess, please stop talking."
"Tsk," Yu Xiao said, "I didn't say I wouldn't let you take care of Li Luo. Can't you just carry the food box?"
Even if the food box was stuffed with a quilt, it would not be able to keep the medicine moist in this freezing winter. Li Luo knew very well that if Jiang Zhuojun did not warm the medicine with his hands and held the medicine bowl in his arms, the medicine would have been cold by the time it reached him.
After Gu Xinglang fed Li Luo the medicine, he saw that Yu Xiaoxiao had also applied the medicine to Jiang Zhuojun, so he said, "Princess, let's go and let His Majesty rest." Seeing Li Luo like this, they didn't want to disturb him too much, let alone talk to him.
Yu Xiaoxiao said "oh" and asked Li Luo, "What do you want to eat? I'll bring it to you when I come to see you later."
"No, I'm not hungry." Li Luo laughed again and said, "Princess, please eat more."
Yu Xiaoxiao felt that she couldn't eat less, but she couldn't go against the patient, so the princess nodded and said, "Okay, I'll eat your share as well. When you get better, I'll treat you to a meal."
Li Luo smiled and nodded.
Gu Xinglang took Yu Xiaoxiao away.
"You can boil medicine in the tent from now on," Li Luo said to Jiang Zhuojun after Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang left.
Jiang Zhuojun was looking down at Yu Xiaoxiao's hand, which was applying medicine to him. When he heard Li Luo's words, he looked up at Li Luo and said, "Your Majesty cannot stand the smell of cigarettes now. I was just careless today. I will be more careful next time."
"When will the army set out?" Li Luo asked.
"Early tomorrow morning."
"The princess and Xinglang both advised me to go to Yanhui City."
Jiang Zhuojun heard what Li Luo said and said quickly, "Uncle Shi and Jing Mo also meant the same thing. Your Majesty, your health is the most important thing. I swear to Your Majesty that I will return victorious."
Li Luo looked at Jiang Zhuojun's hand for a long time.
Jiang Zhuojun felt uncomfortable being stared at by Li Luo, so he put his hands on the edge of the bed and put them on his knees.
"Mo Wen sent someone to find me," Li Luo was silent for a while, and suddenly said to Jiang Zhuojun, "He said he could cure my illness."
