Episode 42 Turmoil in the Ward

On the night of the 24th, Zhu Yourong heard that Fourteen Gege was sick, but a large circle of people in the command persuaded him, saying that it was too late today, and His Majesty also needed to rest, and Her Royal Highness the Princess was still sick, so she needed to rest even more. In the middle of the night, His Majesty went, and the princess's mansion was inevitably tossed, which was not conducive to the recuperation of Her Royal Highness the princess.

Zhu Yourong heard everyone say this, and after thinking about it, he gave up and went to sleep. But she was still ready to visit during the day the next day.

But Xiang Xiaoqiang never came back, so Tang Yunsheng called Princess Liaoyang's mansion to ask.

He also had a guess about the relationship between Xiang Xiaoqiang and Princess Liaoyang, but he never dared to guess too deeply. Today, Xiang Xiaoqiang went to the princess's mansion to ask for ideas, and the idea was very good, and he reported it back by phone as soon as possible. Tang Yunsheng was still on the phone at that time and told Xiang Xiaoqiang to hurry back and pay attention to safety on the road. But now it's been almost two hours, and I still haven't come back.

Tang Yunsheng was a little worried, could it be that he encountered some accident on the road? Now Xiang Xiaoqiang's head is worth a lot...... On second thought, it won't. Xiang Xiaoqiang came and went with bulletproof vehicles and two military vehicle guards, and if he was really to be assassinated, it would be a large-scale search for the whole city immediately, and he would definitely receive a report as soon as possible.

So, he took a spare time, personally found a separate phone room, and called Princess Liaoyang Mansion to inquire.

But the results surprised him.

……

The one who answered the phone was a maid from the Princess's Mansion. Hearing that it was the chief of the army staff, the maid was obviously very nervous, and as soon as she stammered a few words, the microphone was snatched away. Then the person who answered the phone on the other end was replaced by a man, and when he asked, it turned out to be Xiang Xiaoqiang's personal guard chief Hu Jiong.

"Why are you still there?" Tang Yunsheng was a little angry. But at least he wasn't assassinated, and he was relieved. He frowned and said, "What about Xiang Xiaoqiang?" Is it there too? What do I say, don't you tell me to go and come back quickly? Let him answer the phone! ”

"Ah...... Ha...... Haha," on the other end of the phone, Hu Jiong nervously said haha, and forced a smile, "Lord Tang, ...... I'm afraid I won't be able to go back tonight to Lord Xiang......"

"Huh? What did you say?! ”

"Xiang ...... To the Lord he ...... I'm afraid it's ...... tonight Return...... No ......"

As soon as Tang Yunsheng heard this, he immediately burst into smoke.

His first thought: what he was faintly worried about, it still happened.

The relationship between Xiang Xiaoqiang and Princess Liaoyang is here, Xiang Xiaoqiang is a young man, in his twenties, he has been in the command for so many days, and he has no chance to get close to his family, which leads to ...... As unstable as nitroglycerin, it can explode at every opportunity......

Tang Yunsheng closed his eyes, and his mind was full of complaining about Zhang Zhaoxian:

…… Alas, old man Zhang, old man Zhang, you still don't admit that you are old-fashioned...... Are they originally a small couple! What's there about living together? Since you have approved other people's wives to work in the fortress, you are not allowed to live together with the young couple...... Look, what's wrong now, right? …… That's Her Royal Highness the Princess! Let's see how to clean up this scene!

Tang Yunsheng held the microphone and was bored for a long time, Hu Jiong on the other end of the phone didn't dare to make a sound, nor did he dare to hang up the phone, so he waited.

"Alas......!" Tang Yunsheng sighed at the end, shook his head, and said in a low voice, "Okay, let's live there...... Keep your mouths shut, and don't talk any more...... Ahem...... If this is the ...... This and this...... This majesty also went to ask, what do you say? ”

Hu Jiong was a little puzzled over there, but he didn't react. He pondered: Why didn't the chief of the General Staff ask Lord Xiang what kind of illness he had? Did he guess it?

Hu Jiong then said in a hurry:

"Don ...... Lord Tang, because Her Royal Highness the princess got ...... Got influenza, which caused acute ...... Acute upper respiratory tract infection...... Cough...... Visiting adults at the bedside, not paying attention to isolation...... So...... Lord Xiang was also poured by an infectious disease...... So ......"

"Okay," Tang Yunsheng was a little relieved, nodded and said, "Very good, you are very smart, just say so." I'll tell you, early tomorrow morning, let Xiang Xiaoqiang get back immediately! Do you hear that? ”

Syllable! Hung up the phone.

On the other end of the phone, Hu Jiong was stunned and made a mistake with the microphone. Xiang Adult like this...... How can I go back tomorrow morning?

……

In the Liaoyang Princess's Mansion, several "core members" led by Hu Jiong were as anxious as ants on a hot pot.

They strictly controlled the scope of knowledge about this matter, and it was limited to Hu Jiong, the imperial doctor, the maid, and the captain of the princess's mansion. The Princess Guard is the Praetorian Guard, and the Praetorian Guard is also a People's Guard. Hu Jiong has the highest military rank, and secondly, he is closest to Xiang Xiaoqiang and knows Xiang Xiaoqiang best, so he became the commander-in-chief of these people.

"Doctor, my lord has passed out for more than an hour, and he hasn't woken up yet. You think it matters, right? ”

In a small room, several people were wearing masks, looking at Xiang Xiaoqiang who was sleeping on the bed, Hu Jiong asked anxiously.

The imperial doctor measured Xiang Xiaoqiang's temperature, measured his blood pressure, listened to his heartbeat, and opened his mouth again and looked at the tongue coating with a flashlight...... Finally, he nodded and said softly:

"Lord Xiang is currently in a shallow coma...... Well, it can also be understood as sleeping...... Because of Her Royal Highness the Princess's illness, Lord Xiang was in a state of extreme nervousness, sadness, and anxiety all night, and finally couldn't support it just now and fainted...... Nothing serious. Let's let Xiang-sama sleep. What Lord Xiang needs most at the moment is a good rest...... By the way, you just said that when Lord Xiang first came out, his expression was normal? Can't really see anything out of the ordinary? ”

Hu Jiong and the maid glanced at each other and nodded. 胡羯 says:

"Yes, nothing out of the ordinary. When Lord Xiang first came out...... It seems to be grinning...... It's the same as usual, and the mood seems to be good......"

The imperial doctor pondered for a moment, nodded, and sighed slowly:

"Alas...... This is how valuable you are to your lords. I guess it's like this: Her Royal Highness thinks she has pneumonia, and Lord Xiang also thinks that Her Royal Highness has pneumonia, but Lord Xiang doesn't know that Her Royal Highness knows that she has pneumonia...... Well, it's a bit of a mess here, alas...... It's also my fault for not making it clear at the beginning...... Alas, I guess Lord Xiang thought she had pneumonia after entering Her Royal Highness's room and seeing Her Highness having a fever and coughing like this...... But he still willingly accompanied her in the room, alas, this affection was really ......"

Except for Hu Jiong, several people are from the princess's mansion. Xiang Xiaoqiang often comes to Fourteen Gege, and the ambiguous relationship between the two is basically counted. At this moment, listening to the imperial doctor's analysis, they are all nodding and sighing, and they are moved. They all thought that Lord Xiang was relying on his power to play with Her Royal Highness the Princess, and Her Royal Highness the Princess was standing alone in Daming, and the only protector was Lord Xiang, so they had to commit themselves to him and play with him...... Now it seems that the love between Lord Xiang and Her Royal Highness the Princess has surpassed life and death.

"Oh......" Hu Jiong was a little puzzled, and asked again, "So, when Lord Xiang first came out, why was he still in a good mood?" ”

The Imperial Physician sighed:

"It is estimated that Lord Xiang felt that the princess did not know that she had pneumonia, so in order to hide it from her and prevent her from suffering, he forced a smile in the room, swallowed all the tears into his stomach, but did not show a trace of sadness on his face...... Well, there may have been a lot of jokes to amuse the princess...... Otherwise, when the adults come out, you will still see the adults with smiles on their faces...... He had just come out of the room, and his expression hadn't changed yet...... However, after all, all night, the spirit of adults is in an extremely depressed state. After this comes out, the sadness is suddenly released, and it is not surprising that fainting suddenly appears......"

"Oh......"

"Ah......h

"Tut-tut......"

"Alas......"

A few people were moved again and sighed.

"Then ......," the maid was still not at ease, and asked again, "what is it that Her Royal Highness has obtained?" ”

The imperial doctor was stunned:

"What? The flu. ”

"That'...... Her Royal Highness is coughing so badly......"

"Yes," the Imperial Doctor said with a normal face, "the flu causes an acute upper respiratory tract infection, and it is a cough." Every time you get a bad cold, I mean it's very serious, you have a fever, don't you have a fever a few days ago, and you will cough for a few days after you arrive? This indicates that the inflammation has metastasized to the upper respiratory tract...... But at this time, if the treatment is appropriate, the condition will start to improve. Once you start coughing, it's a sign that a bad cold is coming off.

"Of course, if not treated properly, it can deteriorate into pneumonia. …… But you must know that this is Her Royal Highness Princess Liaoyang of the Ming Empire. As for me, I am the chief imperial physician of the Princess Mansion of Liaoyang, a member of the Ming Royal Imperial Medical Association, a registered physician of the empire, a specialist in internal medicine, with 40 years of medical experience, a visiting professor at Nanjing Imperial Medical University, an honorary professor at Yale University School of Medicine, an honorary professor at Columbia University School of Medicine, and an honorary professor at Todai School of Medicine in Japan...... Therefore, the situation of 'improper treatment' is completely, absolutely, and absolutely impossible for me to be. ”

"Oh......"

A circle of people looked at him in awe and nodded slowly.

Xiang Xiaoqiang suddenly opened his eyes and shouted:

"Please! Guru! Since it's not pneumonia, then why are you sprinkling so many formalin potions in the hallway? Make it like a morgue! ”

The room suddenly exploded, the maid screamed, several other people also screamed, and Hu Jiong, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, jumped up in fright, as if he was a corpse.

The imperial doctor was also startled, but he stabilized his mind steadily, and regained his kind smile, and immediately measured Xiang Xiaoqiang's blood pressure, listened to his heartbeat, and looked at his tongue, which annoyed Xiang Xiaoqiang to death. At the same time, the imperial doctor smiled kindly:

"To your lordship...... Given that Her Royal Highness the Princess's cold is contagious, it is still necessary to carry out the necessary disinfection...... However, there was no need to use so many formalins...... The nurse accidentally broke the formalin watering can, and the hallway was full of formalin solution...... So only one corridor mopped with a mop is ...... This can be regarded as strengthening the disinfection effect......"

Xiang Xiaoqiang was so angry that he almost fainted, and he really wanted to scold the person in front of him. But when I heard the long list of titles from other people just now, I knew that they were also highly respected, so I still suppressed this fire.

"Master......" he said, holding back his anger, "the watering can can still be broken, is it made of glass?" ”

As soon as these words were asked, several people were stunned. Royal Doctor says:

"Of course it's made of glass. Medical watering cans have to be made of glass. Both copper and iron are prone to rust and do not meet the requirements. ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang also suddenly remembered. It was the thirties, and the plastic watering cans of later generations certainly didn't exist. At this time, the medical utensils were either glass or metal. Plastics, at this time, are also available, but they are still high-end goods, and their applications are very limited.

He held back his anger again and complained:

"Master, then why did you tell Her Royal Highness that she had pneumonia?"

The imperial doctor was stunned again and said:

"When did I tell Your Highness that she had pneumonia? I'm just telling the truth and telling Your Highness that she has a cold...... Why, tell your lord, Her Royal Highness the Princess, that she has pneumonia? ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang was dumbfounded. I thought of the sentence of Fourteen Gege:

…… The doctor didn't dare tell me...... But I know...... Eighty percent are pneumonia......

Xiang Xiaoqiang suddenly felt angry, and scolded Fourteen Gege in his heart.

…… However, if there was no misunderstanding, how could Fourteen Gege, who was a fierce man, be willing to marry him? How could he be willing to "warbler and swallow in the backyard all day long, jealous, and children" with his few wives?

Speaking of which, it's still very profitable this time.

"Xiang, my lord," the maid asked, half-squinting her eyes and a little suspicious, "the one you are talking about...... What's going on with what is green? ”

The imperial doctor sensitively caught it, and immediately asked:

"What? What is cyanin? ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang decided to pretend to be stupid, and said with a blank face:

"What element? What is what? ”

"That's it...... What has it been? The maid turned her face and asked Hu Jiongdao, "The adults said that it can cure pneumonia, and you heard it." Isn't it? ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang coughed and glanced at Hu Jiong majestically.

"Ah...... Ahh Hu Jiong also opened his mouth wide, looking dazed, "What is it?" Did I hear that? ”

The maid said "Huh" and said strangely:

"Of course you heard that! We heard it together. ”

Hu Jiong said innocently:

"What did you say? I really didn't hear that. We're standing together, and as long as you hear it, there's no reason I can't hear it. ”

"Huh? No, you're ......."

"Think about it," Hu Jiong crossed his fingers and analyzed with her, "What am I doing?" Captain of the guard to Lord Xiang. What does the captain of the guard do? The elite of the People's Guard's security corps, one in a thousand, are specially trained to see any noise in the dark...... Think about it, Lord Xiang was so close to us at that time, I didn't even hear it, you have to say that you heard it, what does that mean? ”

The maid was frightened by him, and murmured:

"Say...... What does it mean? ”

Hu Jiong said very seriously:

"You may be having auditory hallucinations. Well, the doctor is still there, doctor, you can help her get her ears checked. I'm really worried about her. ”

The imperial doctor was also confused, and hesitated:

"This ...... Is it necessary? ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang also nodded and said:

"Master, you might as well help her take a look...... Anyway, it is also to serve Her Royal Highness the Princess, if you are really hearing impaired, then ...... ...... who may face dismissal"

The maid was startled, and immediately shook her head, and said categorically:

"No need to check, thank you...... Well, come to think of it, I really didn't hear that. ”

"Didn't you really hear that? Hey," Xiang Xiaoqiang said solemnly, "The body is your own, you can find it again if you lose your job, and you don't have to change it if your ears are broken." Don't say anything against your heart for this. ”

"No, no, no," the maid said, shaking her hands categorically, "not at all. I really didn't hear it. If you don't hear it, you don't hear it. ”
