Doctor Sun cleaned and bandaged the brother and sister's wounds and then left.
As soon as he left, the house was filled with the howling sounds of ghosts and wolves.
"Mother, please save me. I don't want to be ugly. Please help me find that bitch and ask her to heal my face..."
Just when the post station was in chaos, the person Princess Wenxuan had been thinking about finally appeared outside the city gate.
I saw a middle-aged man in a green brocade robe standing quietly in front of the city gate. His face was calm and deep, and there was a calm and elegant scholarly temperament between his brows. The corners of his mouth were always slightly raised, and the whole person gave people a friendly and elegant feeling.
If no one told him, who would be able to connect him with Princess Jiamin and her mother and daughter who have been causing a stir in the capital these days?
After all, the domineering and arrogant temperament of the three people was very different from the gentle and kind appearance he showed now, giving the impression that a bad bamboo shoot had grown out of a good bamboo.
At this time, he was staring blankly ahead, not knowing what he was thinking. It was not until his personal guards handed over the city guards and came to remind him that he could enter the city that he came to his senses.
Unlike the grand ceremony when Princess Wenxuan entered the city, he was only accompanied by a team of guards, and all other ceremonial guards were omitted. He was so low-key that he didn't even look like a prince.
However, the saying "don't judge a book by its cover" is not just a simple saying...
King Wenxuan did not inform his queen in advance that she would enter the city today.
So it was not until everyone was standing at the door of the post station that Princess Wenxuan received the news and hurried out to greet them.
Upon seeing him, Princess Wenxuan couldn't help but burst into tears again, "Your Highness, you're finally here. Minru and Qingwei and the others..."
As she spoke, her body subconsciously leaned towards Prince Wenxuan's arms.
But when their bodies were about to touch, they were stopped by King Wenxuan.
"Princess, please take me to see the two children!" He still had that elegant smile on his face, and still spoke softly. He never even called himself "this king" in front of his princess.
But when Princess Wenxuan turned around, a hint of disgust flashed in her originally kind eyes.
When the two children saw their father coming, they immediately started crying excitedly again, adding fuel to the fire.
Facing his two children who were bandaged with only their eyes exposed, King Wenxuan looked distressed, but if others saw it, they would inevitably think that his attitude as a father was a little cold.
But the mother, daughter and three others didn't notice it at all, as if he was born with this indifferent temperament.
But if they had seen the way he looked at Xiao Qingyan and her son, I think they would have a different feeling!
From beginning to end, facing the accusations of his children, King Wenxuan just listened quietly, and from time to time he would scold them for being ignorant, but he did not have any impulsive reaction as a father facing his children being injured like this.
Even when Xiao Minru tearfully complained that her face was ruined, he did not show any anger. Although his words of comfort sounded nice, a closer look revealed that they were all perfunctory and there was no real promise at all.
It was not until Princess Wenxuan mentioned that the imperial physician said that anti-inflammatory drugs from the maternity and child hospital were needed to assist in wound recovery that a trace of solemnity appeared on his face.
"Okay, father knows everything. You just rest and recover. I will go find medicine for you right away." After comforting the three of them with a few words, he left the room without looking back.
As soon as he left the hospital, he ordered the personal guard who had been guarding him, "Hurry, go to the maternity and children's hospital to buy as much anti-inflammatory medicine as possible."
The maternity and children's hospital has a fixed amount of medicines, and you can't buy as much as you want just because you have money. In addition, they don't accept male patients, so the guards spent a lot of effort to buy some without alerting the enemy.
Prince Wenxuan looked at the few medicines and frowned on his usually calm face. "Why is there only so little?"
The guard hurriedly explained that the medicine was difficult to buy, and then said, "The woman who helped buy the medicine said that although the pills are small, one can have miraculous effects. Usually, they are distributed according to the patient's condition, and you can't buy too many."
Upon hearing this, Prince Wenxuan quickly took out two pills from his limited supply and handed the rest to his guards, "Send them out of the city to Qingyan on horseback."
After thinking for a moment, he stopped the guard and said, "When the medicine arrives, don't rush to take it. Wait for me to send a message."
After the guards left, he took the remaining two pills to see the mother and daughter. After giving one to Xiao Minru, he took the last pill to Xiao Qingwei's room and watched him take it with his own eyes. He also personally checked his bandaged wounds. Seeing that some of the wounds were inflamed like Xiao Qingyan's, he re-bandaged them for him with confidence and then stayed with him personally.
Xiao Qingwei, who was unaware of the truth, rarely received such care from his cold father. For a moment, he was even flattered. His wounded heart was greatly satisfied. Under the effect of the medicine, his forehead, which was slightly hot due to the inflammation of the wound, quickly cooled down.
Prince Wenxuan would check on him every half an hour, so he naturally couldn't hide Xiao Qingwei's changes from him.
He was overjoyed and asked the maid to look after Xiao Qingwei before leaving the room.
After returning to his room, he began to send pigeons to send messages to the mother and child outside the city.
Soon, the beautiful woman received his message and hurriedly asked Xiao Qingyan, who had already had a fever all over his body due to the inflammation of the wound, to take the pill.
“Water, water…”
After a night of rest, Xiao Qingyan, who had been suffering from recurring high fever, finally had his fever subside and regained consciousness at dawn.
Hearing the noise, the beautiful woman who had been sleeping beside the bed woke up immediately. Seeing this, she was overjoyed, "Qing Yan, you're finally awake. I've been worried sick these days."
As he said that, he hurried to the table and poured him a glass of water.
After drinking three glasses of water in a row, Xiao Qingyan became more conscious. He looked around and asked hoarsely, "Where is this?"
The beautiful woman put the cup back on the table before replying, "This is the outskirts of Beijing. Your injuries are very serious. Ordinary doctors are helpless. Your father brought us mother and me to the capital, hoping to get you treatment as soon as possible after the incident."
Xiao Qingyan was startled and asked hurriedly, "So my father has succeeded?"
But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was not right. If he had succeeded, he should be in the palace now, not in this small shabby hut.
Sure enough, the next second the beautiful woman confirmed his guess, "Today is the fifteenth day of the lunar month. Your father entered the city yesterday. It just so happened that Xiao Qingwei and Xiao Minru were injured. Their symptoms were similar to yours. He also asked for an imperial physician. He used their symptoms to buy a special medicine and tested it before letting you take it. Only then did you wake up.
If we proceed according to plan, it will take a few more hours."
The beautiful woman smiled again as she spoke, "But it's better this way. Now that you're awake, you won't have to suffer as much. We can also witness this long-awaited moment together."
