"You take good care of her, I'll be back soon!" Qiu Liang was like greased feet, and after sliding a few times with the first two steps, he successfully took off.
After receiving the news, the military camp thought that Tang Chen wanted to talk to Wang Yanzhou alone about something just like last time; not only did they not care much, but they also teased Wang Yanzhou, especially Yan Shaoqing.
Seeing their unruly behavior, Qiu Liang was immediately enraged. With a bang, the meeting room, once bustling with laughter and joy, suddenly fell silent. If it weren't for the sight of the long mahogany table shattered under Qiu Liang's hands, perhaps no one would have cared too much.
Qiu Liang was wearing a mask, so while no one could see his facial expression, they could see the broken table beneath his hands. Wang Yanzhou rushed out. Seeing this, Yan Shaoqing, Zhong Qin, and Wang Nianqing hurriedly sent for Hong Yu and then had the best doctor in the camp rushed to them.
They were also anxious, but not all the people in charge of the military camp could leave. They could only hope that Wang Yanzhou and the military doctor would bring good news when they returned.
The doctor was carried to the Qingliang Palace, sweating profusely. Without waiting for him to wipe the sweat from his forehead or give him a chance to catch his breath, Wang Yanzhou dragged him to Tang Chen's bedroom.
After waiting anxiously for a moment, everyone saw the doctor start to clean up the food and asked hurriedly, "Doctor, how is she?"
The doctor frowned, shook his head slightly, and said, "Strange. Judging from the pulse, Madam's symptoms are due to previous damage to her heart meridian, which then became irritated and caused the blood to surge upward. The other problems are probably gastrointestinal issues. I guess Madam usually likes spicy food, so when she vomited blood, those spicy foods hurt her throat."
Under normal circumstances, Wang Yanzhou would have taken the latter part of this sentence very seriously. But compared to the doctor's first part, it really didn't carry any weight at all: "She hadn't had these symptoms before, Qiu Liang. Did anyone upset her before?"
Qiu Liang was also confused. If she was provoked by someone or something, it wouldn't be possible. She was having fun playing with the children, and the two children were surprisingly well-behaved today. "No, she was just chatting and laughing with me and the wet nurses, entertaining the children. She suddenly acted like this, and we didn't react at all."
Others didn't understand what was going on, but Hong Yu understood the reasoning, but he just couldn't tell them. Tang Chen was still unconscious, so instead of speculating about this and that, they should just let the doctor go.
Therefore, Hong Yu also reminded everyone: "She is still unconscious, we must first find a way to make her wake up. Doctor, please prescribe medicine according to the symptoms you see. Take a few doses first and see how it goes."
The doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded, saying, "Young lady, you are right. I will go and prescribe some medicine. During this period, Madam, please keep your mood happy and avoid any stimulation. As for your diet, please avoid spicy food."
Seeing this, Qiu Liang hurriedly led the way for the doctor: "Thank you, doctor. This way, please."
Seeing Wang Yanzhou's worried look, the doctor added, "Your Highness, we can only wait and see how things go. If he gets better after tonight, then everything will be fine."
Wang Yanzhou looked at Tang Chen's pale cheeks, sighed helplessly, and said: "...Well, thank you for your help, doctor."
After the doctor opened the pharmacy, Qiu Liang had someone send him back the way he'd come. He ran back to show the prescription to Wang Yanzhou before hurriedly going out to have the medicine prepared. Hong Yu saw that they were the only three people in the room now, and since they couldn't speak loudly and couldn't find any topics to talk about with Wang Yanzhou, he decided to go ahead and check on the two children.
Just as he raised his foot, Wang Yanzhou spoke: "Hong Yu, please stay. I still have some questions and want to ask you for advice."
Hong Yu looked at the unconscious person on the bed and whispered, "Let's talk outside and don't disturb her rest."
Wang Yanzhou quietly closed the door and walked quietly into the garden with Hong Yu, one in front and one behind. When they reached the lakeside pier, Wang Yanzhou said directly, "Tang Chen sometimes hides little secrets from me. If you know anything, can you tell me?"
Hong Yu chuckled softly and asked, somewhat confused, "What exactly are you referring to? Is it that she's been eating chili peppers every day without telling you, or that she's been taking two babies to the garden to rob bird nests?"
Wang Yanzhou really didn't want to joke with Hong Yu, so he said, "Tell me honestly, is she sick?"
Hong Yu nodded, looked at the fish swimming under the bridge and said, "Yes, didn't you see it just now? Why are you asking me about this?"
Wang Yanzhou added impatiently, "I'm not kidding you, I'm asking before vomiting blood today."
Hong Yu squatted down, crossed the fence, plucked a large lotus leaf, and held it in his hand. "Let me tell you seriously, normally, a doctor comes to check her pulse from time to time. You should know her physical condition best. From my personal experience, her skin is fair, rosy, and glowing. She usually just has diarrhea and acne because she likes spicy food. Otherwise, there's nothing else."
Wang Yanzhou was still skeptical after hearing this, saying, "...Why do I always feel like you're deliberately hiding something from me?"
Hong Yu smiled and clarified, "You're overthinking it. I'm helping you in your military camp every day now, and I don't have time to plot anything with Tang Chen behind your back."
Wang Yanzhou still didn't believe it. If Tang Chen hadn't been doing well, how could he suddenly vomit blood so badly? "You guys, are you really not hiding anything important from me?"
Hong Yu smiled and said, "She should be the one to hide something. How could I possibly know everything about her?"
Whenever Wang Yanzhou saw the swans looming in the reeds, he would think of Tang Chen who had gone to steal swan eggs and ended up being chased by the swans and falling into the pond. How wonderful it would have been if he had always lived that leisurely life. Now that Tang Chen was ill, and he couldn't properly take care of her and accompany her, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was incompetent as a husband and a father.
Wang Yanzhou continued, "I understand Ah Chen's temper. She will definitely keep secrets well if someone asks her to. But if she has something on her own, with her talkative nature, she has to find someone to talk to. And you are the only person who can listen to her right now."
