Chapter 2370 Two Kinds of Injury
With a worried look on his face, he said, "How pitiful! How could Her Royal Highness fall into the water for no reason?"
As he spoke, he looked behind them.
Ran Xiaoyu looked back and frowned. At this time, everyone was surrounding Princess Xinping on the stretcher and walking forward. Nan Yan naturally followed closely. Seeing her staggering steps, she had no choice but to follow.
Soon, everyone returned to the bedroom.
Princess Xinping was carefully placed on the bed by everyone. Before she even had time to change her clothes, Wang Baizhi hurried in with a group of imperial doctors from the Imperial Hospital.
As soon as they heard that Princess Xinping had fallen into the water, everyone dropped what they were doing and rushed over.
After all, this is the princess that His Majesty the Emperor holds in his heart.
If anything happened to her, I'm afraid none of them would survive.
After arriving, everyone was immediately dispersed by Nan Yan. No noise was allowed in the room. Wang Baizhi and two skilled imperial physicians were left behind. They asked about the situation, cut open the collar of Xinping's wet clothes, and washed the filth out of her mouth with water.
Nan Yan stood aside, watching them busying around.
Finally unable to bear it any longer, he stepped forward and grabbed Wang Baizhi: "Doctor Wang, how is Xinping?"
"My Lady,"
Wang Baizhi glanced at Princess Xinping's eyelids, checked her pulse again, and said with a frown, "The princess's condition... I still need to give her acupuncture first and then see how she reacts."
“…”
"Don't worry, my lady."
“…”
"Your Highness is blessed with good fortune, and nothing will happen to you."
Nan Yan had no choice but to let him go and watched as Wang Baizhi took out a pack of needles from the medicine box, burned them, and then stabbed them into Xinping's head and arms one by one.
Every injection was like a needle piercing her heart.
She bit her lower lip so hard that she almost broke it, and the tip of her tongue almost tasted blood.
Tears silently dripped down.
Wang Baizhi pricked a few major acupuncture points, then looked down at Xinping's reaction, but saw that she had no reaction at all.
His brows furrowed even tighter.
He gritted his teeth and pushed the needle down a little further.
Anyone versed in medicine knew that the deeper the needle went, the more dangerous it was. While acupuncture could cause severe pain to wake the patient, at this moment, especially with the princess being so young and having fallen into the icy lake and been exposed to such extreme cold, it would have been even more difficult for her to endure.
He only stabbed down this far, which was a risky move.
The sweat on his forehead dripped down drop by drop.
But Xin Ping still didn't react at all, not even his breathing showed any fluctuation.
Seeing her like this, Wang Baizhi's heart sank.
Nan Yan was beside her, her voice hoarse with anxiety as she asked, "What happened to her? Doctor Wang, she's okay, right?"
“…”
Wang Baizhi collected the needles from the princess' body, then turned around and looked at her with difficulty.
"Your Majesty, Her Highness the Princess—her life is temporarily safe."
"Then why hasn't she woken up yet? When will she wake up?"
Wang Baizhi's expression became even more gloomy. After hesitating for a long time, she said softly, "The princess fell into such an icy lake. An ordinary adult's heart and lungs can't withstand such extreme cold. Moreover, she drowned..."
“…”
"When a person drowns, the brain will be damaged, and Your Highness is too young, too young."
“…”
"This way, both kinds of damage will be piled on her..."
