On their wedding night, Zheng Xiu laid down three rules with Xue Zhi:

"First, from now on, I'll manage all the household finances."

Xue Zhi nodded enthusiastically.

Chapter 115

Seeing Xue Mian crying, Zheng Xiu felt heartbroken. He had been without his biological father since he was a child. If Princess Guihe got hurt again, Xue Mian would really become a poor child without a father or a mother.

The mansion of Duke Qing was located on Zhuque Street at the foot of the imperial city. It only took two or three quarters of an hour to go back and forth to the palace. The person who went to report the news was holding Princess Guihe's name card, which was very effective. Someone immediately reported to the emperor, and someone notified the imperial physician.

Doctor Liu was the oldest doctor in the imperial hospital and had the most experience in gynecology. There was also another imperial physician named Zhang who came with him, who could also be called a gynecologist.

The group did not dare to delay and galloped on horseback. The two old imperial physicians were sitting in the carriage, and their old bones were almost broken. But the two did not complain about anything, they just frowned and concentrated, hoping to make an accurate diagnosis and treatment in a while.

After arriving at the mansion of Duke Qing, the maids from Changfeng Garden were already waiting at the door and led them all the way.

The two doctors entered the inner room, and without saying much, they

immediately checked the pulse of Princess Guihe. After carefully checking the pulse, the two looked at Princess Guihe's eyelids again.

The female doctor did not dare to make a conclusion. She had only used needles to stabilize Princess Guihe's condition, and did not dare to prescribe medicine. The two old doctors also frowned, and the room was silent for a while.

Zheng Xiu couldn't help asking, "Two doctors, what's wrong with the princess?"

Doctor Liu and Doctor Zhang looked at each other, and then said, "Anger attacks the heart, and emotions are depressed and angry."

Doctor Zhang added, "Exogenous wind evil, blood stasis."

Zheng Xiu didn't understand these pathologies, so she just asked, "What exactly is it? Is it serious? Is there a cure?"

Doctor Liu saw that Doctor Zhang and he were talking about the same thing, so he dared to speak up and said, "The princess has a stroke. Fortunately, it was discovered early, and the doctor gave her acupuncture in time. She should be fine after taking two doses of medicine." "

Stroke? How is it possible? Isn't that something that only old people get?" Zheng Xiu was very surprised. In modern times, she heard that people who had strokes were all elderly people. Princess Guihe was less than 40 years old, so how could she have a stroke?

"Can the two doctors confirm?"

Doctor Liu said, "With the diagnosis of this old man and Doctor Zhang together, it should be accurate. The princess' stroke is dangerous, but the cause is different from that of an elderly person."

The cause is naturally the two aspects they just mentioned. On the one hand, Princess Guihe has been very angry for many years, and she has been worried and anxious, causing the fire in her body to accumulate in her blood. When she heard that Xue Mian had problems with his eyes, she was furious and brought out the anger that had accumulated in her body for many years. On the other hand, she caught a cold in the first month of the year, causing qi stagnation and blood stasis.

The two effects caused Princess Guihe, who was less than 40 years old, to suffer a stroke. Fortunately, it was discovered early, and it was only the mildest case, which was not difficult to treat.

The female doctor didn't make a diagnosis, but she couldn't believe that Princess Guihe of this age would have such a disease, and she couldn't be sure for a while.

At this time, Xue Zhi and Xue Qin came back from outside one after another. The two met at the door and returned to Changfeng Garden together.

The two were worried and ran all the way in. They were sweating and didn't have time to wipe it off. They just asked the two doctors what was going on.

The doctor explained it carefully again.

"It's good that sister-in-law is fine." Xue Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.

Xue Qin watched the doctor write a prescription and asked the guard Ating to go to the pharmacy in the mansion to get the medicine according to the prescription.

Xue Mian had stopped crying beside him and stayed by Princess Guihe's bed and refused to leave.

After packing up, Xue Zhi and others went to talk outside.

"What happened to my sister-in-law? Why did she suddenly become so ill? What about the doctor's statement that she was angry? And why did A Mian's eyes become like this?" Although he was just asking out of concern and not in a blaming tone, his series of questions left Zheng Xiu speechless.

Xue Qin was standing aside. His second uncle was also asking about what he was concerned about, but as a junior, he didn't want to talk to Zheng Xiu about it.

Before Zheng Xiu could say anything, Xue Shao had already kneeled down, "Dad, blame me, it's all my fault."

Zheng Yu also knelt down and said, "It has nothing to do with A Shao, I was playing with a slingshot in the house and accidentally injured Xue Mian's eyes..."

Xue Shao then said, "I asked A Yu to play in the house, and I asked him to shoot at the door. We didn't expect Xue Mian to suddenly come into the house."

Xue Zhi and Xue Qin now understood what happened.

Xue Zhi was furious and raised his hand to hit Xue Shao. Zheng Yu had just arrived on the second day, so how could he carry a slingshot with him? Xue Shao, on the other hand, had pestered him for a jade slingshot and kept it with him to play with for a long time.

Just as his hand was about to drop, Xue Qin stopped him and said, "Uncle, A Mian and mother are fine now, don't get angry, it was an unintentional mistake by both brothers."

"An unintentional mistake today can cause so much trouble! Who knows what this kid can do in the future!"

Zheng Yu crawled over on his knees and hugged one of Xue Zhi's thighs, "Brother-in-law, if you want to hit me, hit me, I hit him, I hit him!"

"A Yu, get out of the way!"

Zheng Yu was unwilling to let go, he just hugged his legs tightly.

It would be fine if Xue Zhi could teach Xue Shao a lesson, but Zheng Yu was his brother-in-law after all, this was a dilemma, he turned his head and looked at Zheng Xiu.

Zheng Xiu was indeed in a dilemma, the two children did cause trouble, especially since it was his younger brother who hit them, he deserved a beating. But she couldn't bear to watch the two children being beaten in front of her, and her eyes were red.

Xue Zhi saw that she was crying, so he stopped beating her, sat back, and said in a deep voice: "I will deal with you after my sister-in-law wakes up!"

Zheng Xiu asked the two children to get up, and wiped their tears with a handkerchief.

Princess Guihe was given medicine, but she didn't wake up. Doctor Liu stayed to observe the condition, and Doctor Zhang returned to the palace to report. The emperor must still be worried, so he had to go back to report. Xue Qin and Xue Mian were also guarding the bedside.

Zheng Xiu, Xue Zhi and the two children went back to Haoye Hall first.

Zheng Xiu also sent someone to notify her father, and Zheng Ren rushed over from outside in the afternoon.

Zheng Xiu knew her father's temper. Her brother would definitely not be able to escape a beating, and Xue Zhi was still angry. So she went out on the pretext of making tea and stood outside.

Sure enough, not long after, the cries of pain from the two children were heard from inside. At first, they cried out naturally once or twice, but then they held back.

"Madam, please persuade the old master and the second master from your mother's family. The two young masters didn't mean it." Ming Hui said worriedly.
