"Cousin, I'm sorry, I didn't know." Yaoyao walked forward with tears in her eyes and gently hugged Tian An.
When she heard that Tian An was going to enter Kunning Palace, she was looking forward to it. In her opinion, as long as Tian An was willing to go, her mother would be able to survive.
But he never thought about how much price Tian An would have to pay for this and how much courage he would need to make this decision.
Tian An patted her back gently, comforting her for a moment before lifting her off him. He took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears from her face. "Silly girl, why are you sorry? If you don't tell me that I'm your cousin and master, just tell me that the Empress is my aunt and I can't just stand by and watch her die."
As she spoke, she walked over to Madam Xiao and tried to help her up, "Madam, I know you're worried, but I'm a doctor, and curing illnesses and saving lives is my duty.
Besides, I've successfully conquered diseases like smallpox, which have been circulating for years. How long has this strange disease in Meixian been around? I'm sure I can handle it!
If I can cure this strange disease soon, Zhao Yiming can return soon, and our family can be reunited soon!"
Aunt Xiao was already sobbing uncontrollably at this point. She looked at Tian An's smiling face, opened and closed her mouth again and again, and after a long while, she choked and said, "But, child..."
Tian An lowered his head and touched his lower abdomen, a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes. When he raised his head again, he still smiled and said proudly:
"They say brothers fight tigers together, and fathers and sons fight together in battle. This is Zhao Yiming and I's child! His parents are so powerful, he's sure to be a strong child. It's just a minor illness, he'll be fine."
Seeing the smile on Tian An's face, Aunt Xiao cried even harder. Tian An even wet his handkerchief, but still couldn't stop the tears from flowing out.
Yaoyao also threw herself into the prince's arms. Although she was trying to suppress her tears, one could tell how hard she was crying from the way she kept shaking her shoulders.
Even the prince and the emperor turned away with red eyes, not daring to face the dazzling smile on Tian An's face.
The imperial physicians present also lowered their heads and wiped their tears. The gray-haired imperial physician Qin tightened and loosened his hands in his sleeves.
After a while, he emerged from the crowd with trembling legs. "County Lady, I will go with you into Kunning Palace! I'm already old, and if I can contribute to the Empress's health, it will be a worthy death."
Tian An turned to look at him and said with a sweet smile, "Dr. Qin, you are really something. You have practiced medicine all your life and have enjoyed great success. This is a rare opportunity for a young person like me to shine. Please don't compete with me for it!"
"You little girl." How could Doctor Qin not know that she was doing this for his own good and was making excuses for herself!
Tian An turned around and saluted the emperor, then turned to the doctors and said, "The Empress won't wait for anyone. I'm going in now. Doctors outside must not let their guard down and must assist me!"
The imperial doctors nodded, "Don't worry, County Lady. We will be here whenever you call. If you have any instructions, just let someone know outside the door."
Finally, Tian An walked to Yaoyao, patted her shoulder and said, "Yaoyao, Aunt Xiao is old, please help me take good care of her."
"Okay, I will take good care of Madam Xiao. Cousin, you should also take good care of yourself and the baby in your belly.
I will copy scriptures every day to pray for you, the baby, mother, and cousin. May you all be safe!" Yaoyao said in a choked voice.
Tian An nodded and was about to walk out of the hall, but Nanny Xiao immediately grabbed her hand and said, "Madam, since you insist on going, take this old servant with you!"
Tian An retracted his steps and patted her hand, "Mammy, just stay here! I'm really hungry now! Without you to help me watch over my food, I'm afraid I won't be able to enjoy it."
How could Madam Xiao not know that Tian An was trying to keep her outside? She only regretted that she could not help at the moment. She sighed helplessly and said, "Okay, I will personally prepare food for you, Madam, and ensure that you eat well and have enough for every meal."
"Thank you for your hard work, Ma'am." After saying this, Tian An asked the palace maid to take her to the side hall to change into protective clothing.
She was going to save people, not to die, so protection must be in place.
Seeing Tian An taking a step, Deng Xue immediately followed, "Madam, if you don't let me go with you, I will wait until night to climb over the wall."
Thinking about the last time when he was treating An Yiku's smallpox at the Duke of Anguo's Mansion, this girl also rushed to follow him into An Yiku's courtyard at the last second. Tian An believed that she was capable of doing this.
Instead of letting her climb over the wall and enter Kunning Palace without any preparation, it would be better for her to go in wearing protective clothing like herself, which would at least ensure her safety temporarily.
"Okay, come with me to change clothes!"
Seeing that Tian An agreed, Deng Xue hurried to follow.
The imperial doctors felt guilty when they saw that such a little girl dared to accompany her master into Kunning Palace without fear of life and death.
Tian An and Deng Xue quickly put on protective clothing and walked into the gate of Kunning Palace under the gaze of everyone.
From the moment she entered the door, Deng Xue was already spraying the disinfectant that had been prepared long ago.
Tian An ignored the palace maids lying on the ground and wailing, and was the first to enter the bedroom to check on the queen's condition. Deng Xue would come over to deal with them after spraying the disinfectant.
In front of the queen's bed, Qing Yi was sitting on the ground with his eyes closed, his face flushed, leaning against the bed in pain.
Judging from her appearance, she must have a high fever. However, Tian An knew nothing about the disease at the moment, so he didn't dare to give her medicine casually. He could only take out a fever-reducing patch from the space and put it on her forehead to make her feel better temporarily.
After putting a fever-reducing patch on the queen who was also running a high fever, Tian An first took the queen's pulse. After seeing the rash on her body which had begun to show signs of suppuration, he took out a blood collection device from the space and drew a tube of her blood.
Then he took out the infusion pump and gave her a bottle of vitamin C.
The floor of the bedroom was covered with a thick blanket. Tian An was not able to do heavy work at this time, so he simply laid Qingyi on the ground, let her lie down, and gave her a bottle of vitamin C.
After taking out the injection solution and several sets of infusion sets that would be used later from the space and placing them on the table, he went out and asked Deng Xue to wait and give intravenous drips to other people.
She found an empty room, went in, closed the door, and then went straight into the laboratory in the space. Using modern high-tech medical equipment, she began to study the virus in the queen's blood.
With the help of technology in the space, Tian An had a clear understanding of the characteristics of the virus in just one hour.
However, the more in-depth the research, the more confused Tian An became. This "virus" seemed to be just a poison, not a disease.
But diseases can be transmitted, but poison can only be expelled. If we are sure that it is just poison, how do we explain its ability to be transmitted?
