"How is she?"
"Your Majesty, judging by her pulse, the young lady is not seriously injured. As for why she remains unconscious... Please forgive my limited medical skills, but I really... I really have no idea..."
In the backyard of the General's Mansion, in an east wing of Yueting Nanshe, the palace doctor, under the tremendous pressure from Nalan Yunzhi, knelt on the ground with his head bowed, and spoke timidly.
"waste!"
"yes!"
"What is it?"
"It's trash..."
Nalan Yunzhi waved his hand at the court doctor who was kneeling on the ground and asked her to leave. Nalan Yunzhi was afraid that if he continued talking to her, he would not be able to control himself and have someone chop off her head.
"Young Master, the water is coming."
Shuangxi held a basin of warm water and called Si Chengfeng at the door. Si Chengfeng immediately went to the door, took the basin and placed it on the table in the room.
After wetting the towel placed on the edge of the wooden basin, Si Chengfeng wrung it out until it was half dry, then moved to the bed and prepared to wipe Hua Qingcheng's face.
"I'll come!"
"yes."
Nalan Yunzhi, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, took the handkerchief handed to him by Si Chengfeng, then raised his hand to wipe the sweaty face of Hua Qingcheng who was lying on the bed.
Looking at the pale girl lying motionless on the bed, Nalan Yunzhi's heart ached slightly. Gently stroking Hua Qingcheng's slightly calloused hands, Nalan Yunzhi's sharp eyes were filled with rage.
Although the results of the secret guards' investigation had not yet come out, Nalan Yunzhi was already certain in his heart that Hua Qingcheng was the daughter Ling Yan had mentioned who was snatched away from them as soon as she was born.
She and Lingyan's daughter was the almighty Princess of the Laifeng Kingdom. She was supposed to be a noble, enjoying wealth and splendor, but for no apparent reason she had become a peasant girl in a remote countryside.
The people behind this are truly despicable! They robbed Hua Qingcheng of not only her glorious life, but also the sixteen years of happiness she, Ling Yan, and their daughter had shared. Ling Yan, distraught over the loss of her daughter, fell off a cliff and perished in the icy cold pool at the bottom of the Forgetful Cliff...
She, Nalan Yunzhi, would slowly investigate what happened back then, but the most urgent task right now was to rescue Hua Qingcheng.
"Master, the imperial physician is here."
While Nalan Yunzhi's thoughts were drifting away, An Yi had already come to the side room to report to Nalan Yunzhi.
"Let them in!"
"Yes, Master."
A group of old doctors from the Imperial Hospital were thrown directly into the carriage by An Yi. In less than half an hour, they arrived at the General's Mansion in the east of the city from the Imperial Hospital.
Then the imperial doctors were directly picked up by the secret guards, who used their lightness skills to climb walls and fly over eaves. In less than a moment, they were brought to Hua Qingcheng's bed in the east wing of Yueting Nanshe. At this time, their legs were still shaking and trembling slightly.
The bones were nearly broken apart by the speeding carriage, and then the doctors were carried around by the secret guards. They could only complain in their hearts: The emperor's secret guards are simply not human, they are elusive Yakshas!
"Your humble servant pays respect to the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long…"
"Stop talking nonsense and see her."
Nalan Yunzhi resisted the urge to kick these nagging old guys away and ordered them to see Hua Qingcheng as soon as possible.
"yes!"
Then seven or eight highly respected old doctors took turns to come forward to take Hua Qingcheng's pulse and examine her.
Seeing them staring in deep thought, frowning slightly, and gathering in groups of three or four to whisper, but no one stood up to speak, Nalan Yunzhi felt that his patience was about to run out.
"What happened?"
The imperial doctors were so frightened by Nalan Yunzhi's sudden scolding that they trembled all over.
"Du Zhongchun, you speak!"
Looking at the hesitant old guys in the Imperial Hospital, Nalan Yunzhi directly called out the name of the director of the Imperial Hospital.
"Your Majesty, the doctor at the General's Mansion is indeed a master of surgery. She handled the sword wound on this girl's arm very properly. As long as she continues to take the medicine, she will be healed in three or four days." Du Zhongchun bowed and reported.
"I'm not asking about the external injury on her arm. I'm asking about the internal injuries. Also, why is she still unconscious?"
Nalan Yunzhi knew full well that she had used all her strength in that strike. Even someone as skilled in martial arts and possessing profound internal energy as her would suffer heart damage and vomit blood if struck by such a blow. The thought that Hua Qingcheng had no internal energy at all made Nalan Yunzhi's face darken.
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, this young lady's internal injuries are not serious. The reason she is unconscious is probably because she was injured by the internal energy of the powerful thief just now, causing her to faint. As for why she has not woken up yet, in my opinion..."
"The internal injuries are not serious? How is that possible?"
He actually dared to call her a thief. Nalan Yunzhi resisted the urge to slap this fool to death. He glanced at Du Zhongchun suspiciously, and after confirming that she had not been switched, he continued, "As for her not waking up, what do you think?"
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, this young lady did faint before, and now she should... should just be asleep." Du Zhongchun waved his sleeves to wipe the sweat from his forehead and said tremblingly.
"Asleep? Are you sure you are not teasing me?" Even someone as calm as Nalan Yunzhi was shocked by Du Zhongchun's words.
"Your Majesty, based on the conclusions reached by this old minister and the imperial physicians, this is indeed the case. This young lady must have been overworked and is now in a deep sleep. Your advice is to remove her clothes and re-examine the chest injury."
