Chapter 452 Restless Night(1/2)

The little princess' condition is suspected of heat stroke.

This is a disease with a very high fatality rate in ancient times. Xinyi did not want to see Zhou Yiliu, but the doctor was kind-hearted, and the little princess was just a patient in her heart.

Xin Yi laid the little princess flat on the crib, untied the knots that bound the swaddling clothes, and then reached out to take off the baby's hat.

"No." Zhou Yiliu stopped him.

The wet nurse followed suit and said, "The little princess is not allowed to take off her baby clothes until she is one month old."

In ancient times, it was a custom for children to be bundled up in swaddling clothes when they were born. In the hot summer, although the swaddling clothes were not thick, they were still very stuffy for the children.

Xin Yi glanced at Zhou Yiliu, "Madam, are you sure you don't want me to see it?"

Zhou Yiliu hesitated and waved his hand towards the nanny.

The nanny bowed her head and retreated.

No matter how big the rules are, they are not as important as the life of the child. Xin Yi slightly curled his lips, took off the swaddling clothes and looked at the baby's body, frowning slightly.

It had been a few days since she was born, but the little princess's umbilical cord had not yet healed and was already suppurating. Especially when she was wrapped in swaddling clothes in the hot summer, the smell was extremely unpleasant.

Xin Yi took off the dressing and frowned to take a look.

"Which stable woman handled the umbilical cord in a very sloppy manner."

Zhou Yiliu has a hard time talking about it.

Mrs. Wen who delivered the baby was brought in by Zhang Xun. She might have wanted to kill her and the little princess at that time, so how could she try her best?

If Queen Cao hadn't arrived in time that night, she would have died.

After Wen Po left the palace, there was no news. She still doesn't know who she is.

Zhou Yiliu was panic-stricken, but he couldn't say more, so he just mumbled over with a sad look on his face.

"Then I would like to trouble the princess to see how she should deal with it?"

Xin Yi looked at the degree of infection in the umbilical cord and frowned.

"Hurry out of the palace and go to Xinyi Medicine House to ask Mr. Zhou to bring some alcohol."

Xin Yi has sealed all the alcohol distilled these days and has been preparing for Fu Jiuqu's surgery.

The little princess' current condition, infection and heat, could hang on to her life. It can be said that the hospital has exhausted all its efforts. If she doesn't come to rescue, she may not have a few days to live.

Before Zhou Daozi came over, Xin Yi did not prescribe or prescribe medicine, but only used some physical cooling methods. After Zhou Daozi brought alcohol, he helped the little princess re-dispose the umbilical cord, and then borrowed Zhou Daozi's hand to write a prescription

Get medicine.

It's one thing to save people, but if you step into a trap just to save people, you'd be stupid.

The princess does not understand medical skills, but Zhou Daozi does. She is a retiring imperial physician. If Zhou Yiliu has anything to say in the future, it will not cause trouble on her.

At midnight, the little princess's fever subsided.

Just as Xin Yi was about to say goodbye, Zhao Zhen and Fu Jiuqu came over.

Zhao Zhen's face was full of love. Seeing that the little princess's condition had improved, her face looked much better. "The best doctors are among the people. This statement is indeed true."

He sighed and looked at Xin Yi with complicated eyes.

"Go, your husband is waiting for you outside."

Fu Jiuqu did not come in, but waited for her outside Xiangluan Pavilion. Zhou Yiliu suppressed the displeasure in his heart, stretched out his hand to hold Zhao Zhen, who was holding the child, and said softly:

"The official family, I want to keep the princess in the palace."

Zhao Zhen raised his head and looked at her without speaking.

Zhou Yi and Liu Xiaoyi said authentically: "The little princess has been crying uneasy these days and nights. With the princess here, I can feel more at ease."

"Official, Mrs. Zhou, if the little princess recovers from her illness, it will all be due to Mr. Zhou. My wife did not do anything." Xin Yi was afraid that Zhao Zhen would respond casually, so he spoke before Zhao Zhen, and then lowered his voice.

He lowered his head and said slightly shyly:

"The eldest princess has been thinking a lot lately. She has a restless night. She has to be massaged by me to fall asleep. Her husband is also..."

What? She stopped talking, kept the words, and said shyly: "Mr. Zhou has already explained the little princess's affairs. Madam Zhou, don't worry too much. I will come to see the little princess early tomorrow morning."

Princess."

Zhao Zhen laughed and looked at Zhou Yiliu.

"You are newly married, so don't force your bride to stay."

Zhou Yiliu's eyes were gloomy, but there was a smile on his face.

"The officials have said so. It's hard to keep me here any longer. Xiuqin, send the princess and Mr. Zhou out."

··

Outside Xiangluan Pavilion, Fu Jiuqu stood quietly with his hands folded.

When Xin Yi saw his back, his heart calmed down.

"You came here specially to pick me up?"

Fu Jiuqu turned his head when he heard the sound, showing a hint of smile.

"Are there other little goblins here?"

Xin Yi's cheeks turned red.

Usually the two of them would just joke around in the room, but now that they were in the palace and Zhou Daozi was by his side, he didn't shy away from it either.

She glared at Fu Jiuqu angrily.

"Hate."

Fu Jiuqu smiled, curled his lips, and looked towards Zhou Daozi.

"But it went well."

Zhou Daozi cleared his throat, pretending that he was deaf and heard nothing, and nodded solemnly.

"With the princess's skill, the little princess is blessed with great fortune. It won't be a problem to save her life."

Fu Jiuqu nodded and said no more.

After the three people left, Zhao Zhen also quickly left Xiangluan Pavilion. He could not rest here while the concubine was in confinement.

But Zhou Yiliu felt that it was just a superficial reason. In fact, she found that Zhao Zhen didn't treat her as well as before.

There were no newcomers in the palace, Zhao Zhen was exposed to rain and dew, and no concubine was heard to be favored, but Zhou Yiliu was still a little uneasy.

"Xiuyin."

The palace maid Xiuyin stepped forward and asked, "Where did the official family go?"

Xiuyin raised her head and looked at her, "Madam, after the official family left Xiangluan Pavilion, they went to Kunning Hall."

"Going to Kunning Hall again?"

In just a few days, the official family has stayed at Cao Yuzhang's place for the third time. It's already midnight, but he doesn't go back to Funing Hall to rest, but goes to find her?

Zhou Yiliu gritted his teeth and sneered, "No wonder he came to save me. It turned out that he wanted to build a memorial arch for a generous and virtuous wife to please the officials. Don't look at how old you are. How can you still be born?"

Xiuqin and Xiuyin lowered their heads silently.

Their wives seem to have changed more and more.

··

There is no romance in Kunning Hall.

Cao Yuzhang asked the palace attendants to bring him hot water and helped Zhao Zhen wash his feet. Then he sat silently on one side and looked at him without changing his expression.

Zhao Zhen glanced at the queen and said, "The hot soup you use to soak your feet is really good. I soaked in it two days ago, and I felt that my whole body was relaxed and I slept soundly."

Cao Yuzhang said: "It was sent by my natal family, saying it was purchased by Xinyi Pharmacy. If the officials like it, I will have someone buy some more tomorrow and put them in the Funing Hall."

Zhao Zhen coughed slightly and said, "It doesn't matter, I come to you to soak my feet, it's the same thing."

Cao Yuzhang's lips moved but he said nothing.

Zhao Zhen looked at the attentive little maid in front of him, who was gentle, gentle, and quite pretty. Moreover, it was the third time she came to wash his feet, and he knew that this was Cao Yuzhang's arrangement.

He sighed, "I heard that you asked Mrs. Zhang to prescribe a prescription to take care of your health. Are you still taking the medicine?"

Cao Yuzhang pursed her lips slightly, as if she was smiling, but if you look carefully at her face, you can see that it was calm and there was no unnecessary expression at all.

"Officials have really good memories. That was all two years ago."

Zhao Zhen felt suffocated, not knowing whether this sentence was praising him or hurting him.

Cao Yuzhang did not become bitter, but said calmly: "The medicine is very bitter and has no effect. I have stopped taking it a long time ago."

Zhao Zhen smiled awkwardly.

He didn't know whether the medicine was effective, but he and Cao Yuzhang had sex a few years ago, and now his memory is a bit blurry. Where can she go to give birth to a child again if she is recovering?

They were called husband and wife, but they were actually more like colleagues. Even when he came to stay overnight in Kunning Hall as usual, the two of them only talked about business and not romance.

Zhao Zhen sighed lightly.
