However, seeing Chen Nian's current appearance, he felt much more at ease.
If you can stab him, it means you've recovered.
Seeing that Shen Nian had pushed Ertai away, Xiao Yanzi seized the opportunity to come in, pushing Ertai away a bit, and squatted down next to Shen Nian.
Ertai: ...Well, another one trying to steal someone.
"Nian Nian—"
Qing'er's voice trembled slightly.
"Qing'er, I'm fine, don't worry."
Chen Nian sighed and comforted her, explaining that she had anticipated Qing'er's situation and that was why she didn't want to help.
"What do you mean 'nothing'? Look at your hands, do they look like nothing's wrong?"
As Qing'er spoke, she glanced at Chen Nian and then parted Chen Nian's sleeve.
With her hands covered in blood and her fingers swollen and red, Qing'er felt extremely distressed. She bent down and breathed on the blood, then took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped away the bloodstains bit by bit.
After being stared at by Qing'er, Chen Nian didn't dare to speak and silently zipped up his mouth.
Qing'er was angry, but she didn't try to argue anymore, lest Qing'er get even angrier.
He could only obediently reach out and let Qing'er apply the medicine to him, not daring to complain even in pain.
Xiao Yanzi helped to hold Chen Nian's hand still, and Qing'er took the wound medicine handed over by Physician Hu and carefully sprinkled it on.
"Why didn't you say it hurt?"
Qing'er waited for a while, but the person on her head didn't say it hurt. She looked up suspiciously, saw the situation on her head, paused for a moment, then gave him a good whack on the head, feeling disappointed in him.
The person above her had their brows furrowed tightly, biting their lip until it was bright red.
Her body is very delicate; even the slightest injury causes her unbearable pain.
“You’re angry, and when I talk to you, you get even angrier.”
Shen Nian frowned and spoke weakly. She subconsciously wanted to rub her head, but with Physician Hu taking her pulse in one hand and Xiao Yanzi holding her in the other, she could only frown.
Does your forehead hurt?
She hadn't held back at all, and Chen Nian had really angered her. She was injured but wanted to hide it and didn't even say that she was in pain.
"A little."
Qing'er was so annoyed by Chen Nian that she lost her temper. Helplessly, she raised her hand to rub the person's head and breathed on it. Then she lowered her head again, breathing on the person's head while bandaging it with gauze.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Physician Hu said: "I feel immense pressure."
Apart from Xiao Yanzi and Qing'er, everyone's eyes were on him.
"How about it?"
After seeing that Physician Hu had finished his examination, Ertai asked, his eyes full of worry.
"It's nothing serious. It's probably just from being frightened. I'll prescribe some calming medicine for you. Once we get back to the inn, you can brew it and take it."
Noticing that everyone's eyes were on him, Physician Hu replied with trepidation.
"Heh~"
Chen Nian chuckled softly.
Shen Nian was amused by Physician Hu's words. See? Just as she guessed. If they couldn't find the cause of the illness, they would prescribe sedatives. After being sick several times, Shen Nian had figured out the routines of the imperial physicians.
"Nian Nian?"
"Nian Nian?"
The sound was quite soft, and only Qing'er and Xiao Yanzi heard it. The two exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with seriousness and even greater worry.
Qing'er Xiao Yanzi: Has Nian Nian gone mad? Is Doctor Hu any good? I should have brought Doctor Chang with me from the beginning.
"Um?"
Hearing the shout, Chen Nian responded and looked at the two people squatting in front of him with a puzzled expression.
"No, it's nothing."
The two women shook their heads in unison. Niannian was having some problems, and they couldn't upset her.
"How are you? Is Niannian alright?"
On the other side, the emperor, having finished dealing with the matter, came over with his entourage, asking with concern.
"It's alright, it's alright."
Both Qing'er and Xiao Yanzi were worried about upsetting Chen Nian, and they kept talking about it. They secretly decided that once they arrived at the inn, they would send someone to find a few more doctors to examine Chen Nian.
