"Sister Yuan!"
Princess Xu was very happy to see Xie Yuan.
She neither congratulated Xie Yuan on her pregnancy nor comforted her because of Helian Jue's illness.
Princess Xu seemed more like someone reuniting with a close friend, offering only a few greetings and saying little else.
There are some things that everyone knows in their hearts, but it's not easy to say them out loud.
Princess Xu is very sensible and has a good sense of boundaries.
"Ah Yuan!"
Xie Yuan also took the opportunity to grasp Princess Xu's hand.
After exchanging pleasantries, the two sat down together.
Xie Yuan didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point, "Ah Yuan, how many of your soldiers have contracted the disease? Have you taken any measures? What is the current situation?"
She bombarded her with a series of questions.
Princess Xu suppressed her smile and answered seriously, "A total of seven people have contracted the disease. His Highness Prince Yue sent us a copy of your palace's disease prevention manual."
"The prince and I have already gathered the infected soldiers into one tent according to the manual."
"His Highness the King of Yue also gave us alcohol, quicklime, and other supplies, which we have disinfected."
"No more soldiers are getting sick now; it seems to be under control!"
At this point, Princess Xu was both happy and relieved.
Fortunately, His Highness the King of Yue did not hold back!
Fortunately, they trusted the King of Yue and followed the King's instructions step by step.
Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
She's joining the Yue Prince's mansion this time to train troops, not to die!
If the illness gets out of control, it will not only result in heavy losses, but it could also infect her and the Fourth Prince.
Miasma doesn't discriminate based on social status.
Even someone as noble as Helian Jue fell victim to this?
"That's good!"
Xie Yuan also let out a breath.
If the epidemic doesn't spread, that's a good thing.
"This time I brought a lot of alcohol, quicklime, and enough medicinal herbs!"
"If you are short of supplies, just tell me!"
"In addition, I also brought several imperial physicians and more than thirty medical staff."
"...How about this, we'll put your sick soldiers from the Prince's Palace together with the sick soldiers from our Prince's Palace, and treat and manage them all together!"
When Xie Yuan said his last sentence, he clearly spoke in a tone of negotiation.
Although Princess Xu was close to him, she also acted like a "younger sister".
But after all, he wasn't her subordinate.
In terms of status, Xu Yuan is also a first-rank princess consort, and is of equal nobility to Xie Yuan!
Since they treated him with respect, Xie Yuan couldn't afford to be arrogant!
"good!"
Sensing Xie Yuan's high regard, Princess Xu smiled broadly, "Sister Yuan is the most reliable. I have complete peace of mind entrusting these patients to you!"
The fourth prince huddled in a corner, silently watching the two women meddle in the affairs of the palace.
In less than half a day, both military camps were categorized and managed according to Xie Yuan's instructions.
A relatively independent space was designated, tents were set up, and the patients were settled in according to the time of their illness and the severity of their condition.
The physicians were also divided into teams, much like the attending physicians of later generations, to take care of these patients.
The imperial physicians, like a group of experts, conducted joint consultations on numerous patients.
They sprayed alcohol and quicklime, boiled vinegar in a large pot, simmered medicinal soup, and prepared scallion and ginger water, among other things.
In the woods and above the camp, a variety of pungent smells wafted through the air.
Although it smells strange, it inexplicably makes people feel at ease.
Some soldiers were initially panicked when they saw their comrades getting sick.
But with Xie Yuan's arrival and the issuance of orders, they all regained their composure.
After arranging all this, Xie Yuan returned to Helian Jue's tent.
She dismissed the two eunuchs, Duofu and Duoshou, and personally took charge, constantly wiping Helian Jue's forehead, limbs, chest, and other areas to physically cool him down.
Penicillin is an anti-inflammatory, but it's uncertain whether it's the right treatment.
Taking too much medicine will always have side effects.
If possible, Xie Yuan would prefer to use a gentler approach.
Xie Yuan kept wiping Helian Jue with warm water, and he also made sure to give Helian Jue some warm water to drink.
As night fell, a bonfire was lit outside, and Helian Jue finally slowly opened his eyes.
"...Ah, Ah Yuan?"
Helian Jue's eyes slowly focused, and he clearly saw the beautiful figure in front of the bed.
It's not a dream!
It's not that he's delirious from illness!
His A Yuan has really arrived.
They knew perfectly well that his condition was serious and that it could be contagious.
She was already pregnant and had every excuse to refuse.
She clearly held immense prestige in the Yue Prince's mansion, and even after her husband's death, she could still "gain status because of her son."
Despite having so many reasons, A-Yuan still ignored them.
He's the only one in her heart!
Even if the whole world abandons him, A-Yuan will always be by his side!
"Ah Xi, you're awake?"
Xie Yuantai was too rational, too clear-headed.
She is very good at judging situations and is extremely tactful in managing relationships.
Most of the time, Xie Yuan respectfully addressed Helian Jue as "Your Highness".
When the two spend time together in private and enjoy some intimate moments as a couple, she will gently call him by his childhood nickname, Ah Xi.
Now, although it's not the time for flirting, it's the time when Helian Jue is most vulnerable and craves care and love the most.
Her eyes were full of concern as she softly called out his childhood nickname.
Sure enough, when Helian Jue heard Xie Yuan call him "Axi", his eyes shone even brighter.
At that moment, he felt that his heart was closely connected with A Yuan's.
"You've arrived?"
Helian Jue gazed intently at Xie Yuan.
