Chapter 106 The Twins Have a Fever
"Princess Ling Zhao has lived here for such a long time and has never encountered a wild boar in the yellow peach forest. But we encountered one the first time we came here. It's like the wild boar has eyes and kept staring at me. I don't believe it if it's not trying to harm me."
Shen Lingshu's words were very firm.
"Master, wild boars... already have eyes."
Zhu Xin hesitated and then squatted down worriedly: "It just so happens that the master's foot is injured. From now on, we won't go out. I'll keep an eye on the kitchen. We'll talk about it after we return to the palace safely."
The worry in Zhuxin's eyes warmed Shen Lingshu's heart. She asked, "Zhuxin, who do you think hurt me?"
Zhu Xin thought for a moment and said, "Either the eldest daughter or the concubine."
"So what do you think, should I just let it go?" Shen Lingshu asked.
"Of course we can't just let it go like this. This time, my sister and younger sister almost died, and the master almost died too. How can we just let it go like this?"
Zhu Xin said this indignantly, but then he lost his temper and said helplessly, "But, what can we do?"
"Chen Lingyi dares to be so arrogant only because she has the support of the prince." Shen Lingshu waved at Zhuxin. Zhuxin leaned forward and heard Shen Lingshu's voice in her ears. Zhuxin's eyes were half confused and half excited.
"Then, what about Concubine Fang?" Zhu Xin asked again.
Shen Lingshu said: "Concubine Fang is in the palace, so naturally we will wait until we return to the palace to discuss it."
"I'll go right away." Zhu Xin said, and she couldn't wait to go, but Shen Lingshu pulled her back: "Wait a few days, don't make a move if you are not sure."
"Master, don't worry. I will never let you down." Zhu Xin looked as if he had learned something.
Shen Lingshu was relieved and said, "Zhu Xin, I believe you can do well." She was careful and cautious. Her only shortcoming was that she was a little timid.
For a moment, she didn't know whether it was right to let her do this.
"Master, I will try my best not to hold you back in the future." Zhu Xin grinned.
"good."
Shen Lingshu responded with a smile, then asked: "How is Song Yuqing? How is Her Royal Highness the Princess?"
Earlier in the peach forest, Song Yuqing had thrown his body into a wild boar for her. Finally, in order to save Her Royal Highness the Princess, he was kicked in the back by the wild boar. He...
"The imperial physician said that she just needs to rest for a few days and there's no danger to her life." Zhu Xin immediately told him what she had inquired about. "Her Royal Highness is also safe."
"That's good."
Shen Lingshu breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhu Xin said, "Master, you don't have to worry about the young master. Her Royal Highness the Princess is eager to send all the good medicinal herbs to him."
Zhu Xin spoke vividly, and Shen Lingshu smiled and said, "That's reassuring."
"yes."
Zhuxin responded.
Shen Lingshu asked about the two wet nurses again, but they fainted out of fright. The two daughters' food supply must not be cut off.
"Don't worry, master, the wet nurse is fine." Zhu Xin said soothingly, and went to visit Song Yuqing and Her Royal Highness the Princess.
Shen Lingshu was really tired and fell into a deep sleep with her two children.
hot.
Shen Lingshu felt like she was being roasted by two stoves. She opened her eyes and looked at the two babies sleeping side by side. Their red cheeks made her realize that something was wrong in an instant.
Shen Lingshu reached out to touch the two babies and immediately said, "Someone come here."
Liu Si heard the sound and immediately ran in and asked, "Master, what's wrong?"
"Quick, call the doctor." Shen Lingshu said solemnly: "The child has a fever."
When Liu Si heard this, she immediately ran out to find a doctor.
"They're all dead? There's no clue at all?"
Chu Cong was investigating the purpose of the wild boar's appearance. Could it be man-made? Who knows? After checking, he found out that the guards and patrolmen were dead, which allowed the wild boar to come in.
The nun who put special medicine powder in the tree house and on Shen Lingshu also died. After investigation, it seemed like an accident. It seemed that this nun was seeking revenge on the abbot of Lingtai Mountain!
Shen Lingshu is just the unlucky one.
No, it must be man-made.
Chu Cong ordered his men to continue investigating, and soon, they met Liu Si who came to see the imperial physician. Upon learning that their two children had a high fever, Chu Cong immediately took the imperial physician to find Shen Lingshu.
After examining the child, the imperial physician said, "Your Highness, the child is still young. I can prescribe two doses of medicine for the nurse to take first to see if the fever can be reduced."
"Prescribe the best medicine."
Chu Cong felt extremely distressed when he saw the two children whose bodies were burning red.
"Zhuxin, Liusi, go boil some water. I want to give them a bath."
As soon as Shen Lingshu finished speaking, Chu Cong immediately said: "No, you have a fever, you need to cover yourself up and sweat."
"Your Highness, the more you cover yourself up, the more uncomfortable it becomes. I'll wipe them with a handkerchief. They won't feel so hot anymore. Maybe the fever will go away."
Shen Lingshu had never thought of explaining the physical cooling to the ancients. She said, "Your Majesty, when I was a child, I had no medicine to take, so I did this."
No medicine to take?
There was pity in Chu Cong's eyes. Shen Lingshu didn't say anything and directly gave the order. Chu Cong didn't say anything in the end. Since Lingshu could use it like this when she was a child, the child could do it too.
What if the fever subsided? Anyway, the imperial physician had no other options. It would take some time to boil medicine and drink milk.
Soon, warm water came, and when Shen Lingshu talked about taking a bath, she also avoided the chest and the soles of the feet. She took a warm towel and wiped the neck, armpits, and thighs. After wiping, she asked Cong to put on his clothes quickly, wearing whatever he usually wore.
After the elder sister finished wiping, the younger sister wiped it. Shen Lingshu observed carefully, and when she was teasing the two children, she found that they were still in the same good spirits as before, and she was slightly relieved: “Your Highness, look.”
"Sister, your smile is so beautiful. When your sister smiles, her eyes become crescents."
Chu Cong observed that the two sisters were becoming more and more beautiful, with grape-like eyes that made people happy when they looked at them.
"They can still smile and look energetic. After drinking milk and sleeping for a few days, they will definitely be fine." Shen Lingshu touched her sister's hand. The little hand was also hot. It seemed that the fever would not be high anymore.
At night, the nurse took the medicine and fed the two sisters. After eating, the two sisters fell asleep quickly. Shen Lingshu would touch their foreheads from time to time and said happily: "Prince, their fever has subsided!"
Chu Cong stood up and touched their foreheads. After confirming that their fever had subsided, he felt relieved and said, "Thank you for your hard work. You should go to bed early."
"I am their mother. If they are sick, I can't sleep."
Shen Lingshu kissed the two sisters and said, "Your Majesty, please go back and rest. I will take good care of them."
Shen Lingshu finally smiled. Chu Cong looked at her legs that were so swollen that she couldn't move. Instead of leaving, he sat down and said, "I am also their father. I will accompany them."
