Chapter 87 Consciousness

"Imperial Physician Li, this servant is ready." Feng Qing took a deep breath and stood by the bed.

"Okay, let's begin. Remember the order of the acupoints I told you." Yin Hengyi had already consciously walked out of the inner room and stood outside the door.

Yinzhen also stood outside, mainly because he felt a lot of pressure on Feng Qing from inside, so he had to come out. Now only Granny Qi and Feng Qing were inside.

Feng Qing and Granny Naqi helped Yin Qingyi remove her outer garments, leaving her only in her inner clothes. Granny Naqi then moved aside by the bed so that Feng Qing could administer acupuncture.

Feng Qing opened the bag of needles given to her by Yin Hengyi. Inside, two rows of needles were arranged from longest to shortest. Feng Qing pulled out one of them, and in the candlelight, the needle tip emitted a cold, silvery light.

Feng Qing closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled. Opening his eyes again, he bent over, holding the needle in his right hand and searching for the acupoints with his left. Having already confirmed the locations on Mingyue's body, he knew that while the exact locations might vary slightly from person to person, the differences wouldn't be significant. Therefore, he quickly found the first acupoint. Feng Qing, being experienced, inserted the needles swiftly and accurately.

The old woman standing nearby only saw a blur before her eyes, and then several needles appeared on her mistress's body, trembling and shaking. She silently looked away, knowing that these needles wouldn't hurt much, but they were still frightening.

"Alright, now we just need to wait for the time to come and remove the needle." Feng Qing's serious expression relaxed, and his tone became lighthearted.

"I hope the master can wake up." But Granny Qi was not so optimistic. Didn't she hear what Physician Li said? Whether he can wake up or not depends on fate. Although she felt that the master's fate was quite good, it was really hard to say.

Feng Qing suppressed the joy on her face and quietly waited with Granny Qi for time to pass. A quarter of an hour would normally pass quickly, but while waiting, it felt like time was stretching on endlessly.

Yin Hengyi and Yinzhen, who were standing at the door, already knew that the acupuncture treatment had been successful, and now they just needed to wait for the time to remove the needles.

The entire Luoxue Pavilion fell silent, with only the howling wind outside indicating the turmoil of the night.

Meanwhile, the spies from various courtyards, seeing the heavy atmosphere inside Luoxue Pavilion, dared not make any rash moves. After all, their master was still there to oversee things, and they didn't want to walk into the line of fire.

The fifteen minutes slowly passed amidst everyone's anticipation. As soon as the time was up, Yin Hengyi reminded him from outside. Feng Qing, who was inside, didn't need any reminders at all. As soon as the time was up, he immediately removed the needle from Yin Qingyi, then pulled the blanket over her before opening the door to let Yinzhen and the others in.

Yin Hengyi stepped forward to take Yin Qingyi's pulse again, a faint smile on his face, before withdrawing his hand.

"How is it?" Yinzhen asked nervously.

"Well, Consort Yin should wake up in about an hour. She's lucky this time, but things might not be the same next time. Consort Yin's health isn't good (Yin Qingyi: Brother, you're still so good at lying through your teeth). I believe Your Highness already knows that Consort Yin has a congenital deficiency. This congenital palpitation problem can't be cured later; she can only be properly cared for. This is the prescription, a calming medicine. Drink it for a few days, and then I'll come back to help Consort Yin recuperate. It's getting late, so I won't stay any longer. I'm so anxious that Consort Yin will need to drink the calming soup once she wakes up." Yin Hengyi already knew why Yin Qingyi had palpitations, but others didn't. They would only think that Yin Qingyi's palpitations were a congenital problem, and no one would know that it was caused by Yin Qingyi's special ability. So he wasn't afraid of being exposed, because no one could possibly diagnose the cause of Yin Qingyi's palpitations.

"Yes, Su Peisheng, escort Physician Li." Yinzhen didn't know if he had heard what Yin Hengyi said; at this moment, he could only see the person on the bed, and no one else mattered to him.

"Yes, Physician Li, this way please." Su Peisheng was very polite to Yin Hengyi.

Yin Hengyi really wanted to stay and wait for Yin Qingyi to wake up, but as he said, it was already very late, and if he stayed for another hour, it would be midnight. So after confirming that Yin Qingyi was alright, he had no choice but to leave.

“Your Highness, it’s getting late. Why don’t you go back and rest? You have to attend court tomorrow.” Granny Qi still felt sorry for Yinzhen. It was early Hai Shi (9-11 PM), and in an hour it would be Zi Shi (11 PM-1 AM). Yinzhen would have to get up for court at Yin Shi (3-5 AM) tomorrow.

"It's alright, I'll sleep here. You all go out." After saying that, Yinzhen took off his outer robe and lay down next to Yin Qingyi.

Although the old woman and the others were surprised to see this, they couldn't say anything since their master was already lying down, so they could only leave.

After everyone had left, Yinzhen opened his eyes and turned to look at the person beside him. Yin Qingyi's complexion had improved a lot. At least it was no longer the pale white that the servant had shown at the beginning. Although it wasn't very rosy, it at least had the color of a living person.

"What am I supposed to do with you? You're so easily frightened, I can't hit you or scold you. Did I bring back a little devil?" As Yinzhen spoke, the hand that was gently stroking his cheek suddenly turned into a pinch, pinching Yin Qingyi's face. His expression looked fierce, but not a single red mark was left on her face.

Yin Qingyi was actually conscious at this point and could hear voices, but she couldn't open her eyes or move her body.

Listening to Yinzhen's words, Yin Qingyi didn't really understand what had happened. She had just taken a nap, so what was going on? How could she suddenly be unable to move, speak, or open her eyes?

Yin Qingyi was terrified. She'd become a vegetable?! She'd become a vegetable after just one night's sleep! This was truly laughable! Hadn't Yinzhen noticed anything was wrong? She needed to quickly go find her brother to check on her. She didn't want to be a vegetable!

Clearly, Yin Qingyi didn't remember waking up once. In her memory, she had just taken a nap. The only unusual thing was that she seemed to have had many dreams, and the scenes in the dreams were all terrifying. However, she only remembered that the scenes were terrifying, but she couldn't remember the specific details of her dreams.

"You're so timid. You're scared like this by just a nightmare. You even dared to chase me away. It's only because I spoil you that you're like this. If it were anyone else, they probably wouldn't care whether you live or die. Why would they bother to find the imperial physician to treat you overnight?" Yinzhen's hand was still on Yin Qingyi's face, but this time he used a little more force.

Yin Qingyi could feel a slight pain on her face, but there was nothing she could do but let Yinzhen knead and pinch her face.
