Chapter 310 Strange Pulse
At first, Yue'er felt nauseous, but then she suddenly noticed a sweet and sour taste in her mouth. Her eyes lit up and she started chewing.
After swallowing, she didn't need Shiro to feed her any more; she unconsciously poured another one out of the porcelain bottle and put it in her mouth.
While eating it herself, she didn't forget to share some with her mother and Lin Changning. After putting one in each of their mouths, she said, "Sweet, Mom, this medicine tastes good."
Lin Changning tasted the sweet and sour hawthorn balls in his mouth, smacked his lips, and glanced at Shilang: "Go and take the princess's pulse as well, tenth brother."
Shiro nodded, his face becoming serious, and took out a handkerchief from his pocket, placing it directly on the princess's wrist.
"Princess, please."
Li Mingshu obediently reached out her hand, letting Shilang take her pulse. When he felt the pulse, Shilang frowned slightly, but after examining it carefully, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Changning, thinking something was amiss, asked with a hint of suspicion, "What's wrong, Shilang? Is something wrong?"
Shilang nodded, examined her for a while, then shook his head: "It's nothing serious, but the princess's body is a bit weak. It's probably because she didn't replenish her energy during her postpartum period, resulting in a deficiency of qi and blood and a weak constitution. She needs to replenish her qi and blood properly and take care of herself in her daily life."
Li Mingshu nodded to indicate that she understood. After withdrawing her wrist, she heard Lin Changning say, "Do you need a prescription now? You can take it on the way back."
Shilang shook his head: "Making up the deficit can't be done in a day or two. Let's go back to the Prince's Mansion first. The Prince's Mansion has a complete collection of precious medicinal herbs and various dietary supplement recipes. Let my master and the others take a look when we get back."
Lin Changning nodded to indicate that he understood.
As the two were talking, they saw Yue'er stuffing another hawthorn digestive pill into her mouth.
Shiro quickly stopped her: "Young lady, you shouldn't eat too many hawthorn pills?"
Yue'er, who was about to put a hawthorn pill into her mouth, froze. She glanced at the hawthorn pill in her hand with some reluctance and then put it back into the small bottle.
Juro added, "You can only take two pills after meals, understand, young lady?"
Yue'er pouted and nodded: "Okay."
Seeing that Lin Changning's eyelids were blinking and he was yawning, as if he was a little sleepy, Li Mingshu considerately took Yue'er from Lin Changning's arms and said, "I'll take Yue'er back to rest. Xiao Liu, you should rest early too."
After yawning, Lin Changning's eyes were filled with tears. Hearing what Li Mingshu said, he nodded and let go of her, allowing Li Mingshu to take Yue'er away.
"Then you should also get some rest, Princess."
After seeing the person off, the effects of the medicine Lin Changning had taken were slowly taking hold, and soon he yawned several times.
Shiro immediately knew that the medicine was taking effect, but when he took the princess's pulse just now, he felt that the pulse was a little strange.
However, after observing for a while, the pulse didn't seem to be wrong. But having stayed in the Prince's mansion for several months, he had learned to be more cautious.
Seeing that Lin Changning was still awake, he reminded him, "Sixth Brother, I just felt the princess's pulse. Apart from the deficiency of qi and blood, her pulse was a bit strange when I first touched it. It may be that my medical skills are not good enough. Apart from the deficiency of qi and blood, I can't see any problems. But I always feel that her pulse is a bit strange."
Lin Changning nodded: "I will remind the princess to see the imperial physician more often when I get back."
Upon hearing Lin Changning's agreement, Shilang nodded: "Sixth Brother, get some rest. I'll head back now."
Lin Changning suddenly remembered that the male lead was still in Wan Jin's room being guarded by them, and before Shi Lang left, she couldn't help but ask, "That guy, the one I captured, did you force-feed him any drugs today?"
Shiro nodded: "He was given it. He was given it this morning, and he's fast asleep right now."
Lin Changning felt sleepy, but he was still worried: "It's best not to let anyone wake up on the way; this person is a bit troublesome."
Shiro nodded in agreement: "Prepare a bowl of medicine every day. If it really doesn't work, give him an acupuncture needle every day. He'll fall into a deep sleep after a while of acupuncture."
Lin Changning nodded: "Okay."
After saying that, he returned to his bed and fell into a deep sleep.
Seeing that Lin Changning had fallen asleep due to the effects of the medicine, Shilang thoughtfully covered her with a blanket. As he was about to close the door after leaving the room, he ran into Qi Rong, who had come to see Lin Changning.
Shiro bowed and said, "Greetings, Commander."
Qi Rong pointed to the closed door: "Has Xiao Liu eaten and taken his medicine?"
Shiro nodded: "Sixth Brother has already eaten and taken his medicine, and he's resting now."
Qi Rong nodded to indicate that he understood: "How are her injuries? I heard from Ashu that Xiao Liu was injured by a sneak arrow while fighting a tiger and also fell off a cliff. Is she really alright?"
Shilang's eyebrows twitched. He had no idea that his sixth brother had faced such dangers on the way. However, the pulse was never wrong. Apart from being a little weak due to excessive blood loss, his sixth brother was indeed fine.
The wound has scabbed over and will heal with some rest.
"Aside from the external injuries and being a little weak, there's really nothing wrong. I've been taking care of Sixth Brother's health all along, so he's in pretty good shape."
Qi Rong breathed a sigh of relief: "Please take good care of him these days. Xiao Liu is still young, and we mustn't let him develop any chronic illnesses. He's been wounded many times on the battlefield before, and during the defense of Daxing, he was so badly injured that he couldn't get out of bed for half a month."
The physician in the manor said that although you are young, your medical skills are superb. Furthermore, you two are cousins, so I hope you can pay close attention to Xiao Liu's affairs.”
Shilang cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your concern, Commander. I thank you on behalf of my brother. I will naturally take care of my sixth brother's matter. I understand the principle that brothers in the same clan share the same fate. Commander, please rest assured."
After saying this, Shiro was about to take his leave: "Sixth Brother instructed me to go down and brew some medicine. Shiro will take his leave first."
Qi Rong waved his hand, watching Shi Lang walk away. He was about to push open Lin Changning's door when he suddenly stopped.
Seemingly afraid of disturbing Lin Changning's rest, he withdrew his hand and turned to go downstairs. Seeing Zhiqi and Wenzhi sitting in the lobby below, he called them over.
"Have all the letters been sent back?"
He bowed and said, "It has already been reported back to the Prince's residence."
Qi Rong nodded: "We didn't bring many people with us this time. The imperial edict is with us now, and there's a good chance that various forces will intercept us and try to seize it along the way."
Xiao Liu is injured, so take care of him. Also, remind the brothers to be vigilant on the way; this is a critical time, so let's avoid any mishaps.
Zhiqi sighed: "It's so annoying to talk about this. Even though Prince Sheng is about to lose, he still insists on dragging us down with him."
Qi Rong frowned: "Alright, there's no need to talk about this anymore. The Prince Sheng's mansion is facing a crushing defeat, so naturally they'll be looking for a way out for themselves. Besides, it doesn't matter whether he drags us down or not. The mansion has always been a thorn in the side of the court, it was only a matter of time."
Hearing this, he sighed, "Will the prince accept Prince Sheng's heir and the people he brought?"
Qi Rong thought for a moment and said, "Probably, since we are still short-staffed."
