Chapter 220 The Regent's Care
"Imperial Physician Su, my sister has just returned home. I don't know how her injury is now, but judging from her complexion and tone, it should still be very serious." Shangguan Lan told the truth.
Su Mutang walked to the bedside with a serious expression and said, "Madam Yun, I need to check your injuries. Please forgive me if I offend you later."
"Physician Su, just treat me." Yun Wansheng knew the principle of not hiding the truth from the doctor when one is sick, let alone just showing his back.
"I'm glad that Madam Yun understands." Su Mutang felt relieved when he saw her agree so gracefully.
But he still knew that it was better to avoid treating women as much as possible.
After listening to her pulse, he wanted to check the woman's wound. He did not let the woman take off her clothes, but directly cut a hole in her clothes on the back with scissors.
Then she cut the bandage inside and asked the maid to pull the cut bandage out of her clothes to avoid touching her.
After carefully examining the wound, he frowned and said, "Looking at the area of the wound, I think the arrow was a barbed arrow. This kind of arrow is the most vicious. Even if it doesn't kill you, it will still cause you great damage."
"What Imperial Physician Su guessed was correct. That arrow is indeed a soul-chasing arrow. Imperial Physician Li spent a long time digging out the arrowhead yesterday." Shangguan Lan's eyes were full of anger and murderous intent.
Imperial Physician Su said no more and continued to treat the patient's wound. "Her wound is now red, swollen and oozing pus. It can no longer be treated with stitches. It can only be healed slowly with gold medicine."
"Imperial Physician Su, just supervise and treat him." Shangguan Lan felt even more violent when he heard that.
After rebandaging the injured, Su Mutang packed up his medicine box and said, "General Shangguan, I will go back to the Imperial Hospital and prescribe a good prescription for her so that your sister can recover faster."
"Thank you, Imperial Physician Su. I will remember your kindness."
As soon as Shangguan Lan heard this, he understood what he meant. The medicinal herbs in the palace were not available to ordinary people.
"General Shangguan, there is no need to remember my favor. I think you should know who to thank." Su Mutang said with a slight smile on his lips, then picked up the medicine box and left.
When Shangguan Lan heard him say this, he knew what he meant.
After sending the person out of the mansion and coming back, he saw Yun Wansheng closing her eyes with a look of slight pain.
"Little sister, please bear with it for a while. I have sent someone to follow Imperial Physician Su back to the palace to get the medicine."
"Well! Brother, I'm going to sleep for a while, you go back!" The pain at this moment made Yun Wansheng not want to talk.
As the night deepened, Yun Wansheng was still in a coma. Shangguan Lan walked in with a tray on which was a bowl of steaming medicine.
After putting the tray on the table, he didn't rush to call her up. He wanted to wait until the medicine cooled down before calling her to take it.
After waiting for a while, he suddenly saw a man walking in with a dignified manner. His eyes paused for a moment, and then he stood up.
"Prince Regent, why are you here so late?"
Mu Xingci went straight to the bed and looked at the woman lying on it. She was still pale, her breath was weak, and her resolute and handsome face was tinged with worry.
"Have you taken the medicine prescribed by Imperial Physician Su?"
"Not yet. The medicine is still hot. It's not too late to call her after it cools down." Shangguan Lan also looked at the person on the bed.
Mu Xingci glanced at the bowl of medicine on the table and said, "Shangguan Lan, please go out! I will take care of you here."
Although Shangguan Lan was reluctant, he still responded and left.
Last night he knew that this man had stayed with his sister all night, because he also stayed outside all night. He also heard his sister crying, and he knew that his sister liked this man in her heart.
Mu Xingci walked to the table, stirred the medicine bowl with a spoon, and blew gently from time to time to cool the hot medicine as quickly as possible. The sooner the woman drank it, the less pain she would suffer.
He was so focused on stirring that he didn't notice that the woman on the bed had woken up.
Yun Wansheng just lay on the bed and watched the man busying himself for her. The slightly curved corners of her eyes betrayed her mood at the moment.
At this time, Mu Xingci scooped a small spoonful of medicine with a spoon and placed it on his lips, wanting to test the warmth of the medicine. However, when he tried it, he frowned because it tasted bitter: "It's so bitter!"
He whispered, then carefully carried the bowl towards the woman's bed, not looking ahead for fear of spilling it.
When he came to the bed, he raised his concerned eyes and looked at the bed.
When he looked up, he found that the woman had woken up without him knowing when. She was looking at him with a slight smile on her lips, which made him very excited.
"You woke up just in time. I'll feed you the medicine." Mu Xingci's eyes and brows naturally showed tenderness, and he sat on the edge of the bed.
"Yeah!" Yun Wansheng responded softly.
Mu Xingci scooped a spoonful and brought it to the woman's mouth. Yun Wansheng opened her lips and drank it. The drink was so bitter that her whole face seemed to wrinkle.
"It's so bitter!" As he said this, some medicine soup flowed out from the corner of his lips.
Mu Xingci wiped the medicine off her chin and said, "Good medicine tastes bitter but is good for the disease. Just be patient. This medicine is made from precious herbs. Drinking it will make you recover soon. Maybe the pain in your body will go away tonight."
"How can there be such an effective medicine? Stop comforting me." Yun Wansheng's voice was weak and full of disbelief.
"You'll know if it's true after you try it. After you finish drinking, I'll give you a piece of candy to reduce the bitterness." Mu Xingci said with a smile.
His words made Yun Wansheng look at the table in front of her: "You're lying again, where's the candy?"
Mu Xingci listened to the woman's somewhat weak tone, but she had the delicate demeanor of a little girl, which made him feel a little strange.
"Who lied to you? I'm keeping it for you!" he said dotingly, pulling out a small cloth bag the size of a palm from his bosom. "The candies in here are specially provided for the nobles in the palace. You can have a taste of them today."
Yun Wansheng didn't expect that he actually brought it, which made her smile slightly: "Feed me the medicine."
"Don't vomit again." Mu Xingci warned with a smile.
"I'll try my best."
Mu Xingci then fed her again. This time, Yun Wansheng frowned, endured the nausea, and drank the medicine.
Soon, the bowl of bitter medicine was finished, and Mu Xingci then fed her a piece of candy. The sweet taste suppressed the bitterness, making Yun Wansheng naturally relax her brows.
"Is it sweet?" Mu Xingci asked with a gentle smile.
"Yeah!" Yun Wansheng responded to him while holding a candy in her mouth.
Seeing her eating, Mu Xingci stood up and went behind the screen. When he came out, he was holding a wet cotton towel in his hand.
"Let me wipe your face." Without waiting for her to answer, he put a warm cotton towel on her face and wiped it gently.
Yun Wansheng felt the man's caring care, and her eyes unconsciously showed a touch of tenderness: "Thank you!"
"Silly talk! You're still so polite to me. Do you want to change clothes?" Mu Xingci asked understandingly.
Yun Wansheng instinctively thought he meant to change clothes when he said that. "No, it hurts if I move."
