Chapter 45: After Falling Overboard
Yuwen Moyuan entered a small courtyard in the garden, and the maidservants in the courtyard saw him coming, and they all stood respectfully with their hands down. He looked at one of the maidservants and asked, "Sumei, where is the lady?" The maidservant named Su Mei replied in a regular manner: "Qi Qi master, the lady went to the love bell tower." Yuwen Moyuan waved his hand, let her go, and turned around and went to the Love Bell Tower.
On the love bell tower, a woman in white with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes was sitting by the window, looking at a magnolia tree in the garden. In early summer, the magnolia flowers have long since withered, and the green leaves of the trees are dotted with huge fruits.
If someone who had been in the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion or Baiyuguan passed by at this time, he would definitely exclaim in surprise. The woman sitting by the window was none other than Lan Jing'an, who had disappeared for ten months!
At the beginning, Lan Jing'an was hit by a boulder in the back of the head in the Yongjiang River, passed out, drifted down with the river for some distance, and was finally washed to the shore on the same side as the Yanbo Pavilion. It was the private guard of the Prince's Mansion led by Zhou Qi who was the first to discover her, when she had a feather arrow stuck in her left shoulder, and the whole person fell into the water completely unconscious. Zhou Qi and others hurriedly scooped her out of the water and urgently sent her to the prince's nearby courtyard in a carriage from the prince's mansion.
Zhou Qi rushed to report to the prince quietly as soon as possible. And after Yuwen Moyuan found out, he was finally relieved, at least she was still alive, and let him find her in time. He pondered for a while, asked Zhou Qi to keep quiet, and continued to pretend to be looking for someone, and at the same time quickly called the most trusted imperial doctor in the palace to come over to treat her.
Yuwen Moyuan finished handling political affairs that night, and quietly went to the courtyard near the Yongjiang Dutou. Imperial Physician Wang said that Lan Jing'an had been drowning for a long time, and although he was barely rescued, he didn't know when he would wake up. Although Yuwen Moyuan was a little strange, why Lan Jing'an, who knew how to water, would drown so badly, but thinking that she was injured by an arrow, coupled with the high waves of the Yongjiang River, it was normal for her mouth and nose to be irritable by the river.
Because Imperial Physician Wang couldn't stay in the Prince's Courtyard all the time, Yuwen Moyuan hurriedly ordered someone to clean up an unnoticed private garden behind the Prince's Mansion overnight, and quietly transferred Lan Jing'an back to Yonghua City.
Yuwen Moyuan did enough to be hidden, and sent private guards to continue to search for the whereabouts of Lan Jing'an and Xiao Qingyun on both sides of the Yongjiang River, giving people a false impression. It really made him hide from the world, and no one knew that Lan Jing'an had already fallen into his hands.
At the beginning, Lan Jing'an's wound was infected, and there was water in his lungs, and the high fever did not go away. made Imperial Doctor Wang think that he couldn't save her life. As a result, after struggling for more than ten days, she finally survived, but she never woke up.
She opened her eyes on the last day of August. On that day, Yuwen Moyuan, as usual, rushed back to the prince's mansion to investigate her condition. Yuwen Moyuan had already ordered someone to set up a low couch next to her bed from the first day she moved to the Prince's Mansion, so that he could take care of her day and night. On the night when Lan Jing'an woke up, he was watching the secret report at her bedside, when he suddenly heard a slight movement. He quickly threw away what he was holding and went to check on her.
Lan Jing'an opened his eyes dimly, wasted a lot of strength, and said the first sentence weakly: "Who are you?" ”
Yuwen Moyuan was stunned at that time, although he was ecstatic that Lan Jing'an could wake up, he didn't expect her to look at him with a completely unfamiliar eye. He hurriedly asked Imperial Physician Wang to come over from the palace at night to diagnose and treat Lan Jing'an.
Before Imperial Physician Wang arrived, Lan Jing'an had basically come to his senses. She kept saying that she had a headache, and she couldn't do it because she was weak. Not only did she not remember Yuwen Moyuan, but she couldn't even remember who she was. Yuwen Moyuan realized in horror that Lan Jing'an had real amnesia.
Lan Jing'an wanted to get up, but Yuwen Moyuan helped her lean against the head of the bed, and his hand inadvertently touched the back of her head. That's when he discovered that there was a huge lump hidden in her thick black hair. Because Lan Jing'an had been lying flat since the moment she was rescued, no one had found the hematoma in the back of her head for so long.
When Imperial Physician Wang arrived, he was also surprised by such a situation. He carefully diagnosed and treated Lan Jing'an, and even carefully examined the hematoma in the back of her head. Then he secretly reported to Yuwen Moyuan behind her back: "Your Highness, this situation is really rare for girls. She may have hit a hard object such as a stone in the water, hitting the back of her head, causing amnesia and headaches. Although this condition is rare, it is not completely untreatable. As long as the silver needle punctures the acupoints, combined with the blood stasis soup, can dissolve the hematoma in the back of the brain, and her sanity can be quickly recovered. ”
After experiencing the initial surprise, Yuwen Moyuan had a new idea. He asked Imperial Physician Wang, "Is there any way to only dispel stasis but let her continue to maintain amnesia?" ”
Imperial Physician Wang was stunned, His Royal Highness's request was really strange. However, as a subordinate, he can't speculate on the prince's thoughts, he just obeys orders. He pondered for a long time, and then said: "Please also ask Your Highness for forgiveness, Weichen really can't think of any good way." If you want the girl to temporarily maintain amnesia, you can't go to the bruises, you can only simply regulate the girl's body. In this way, the girl's recovery may be slower, and the girl's headache may occur from time to time. Also, although this blood clot will not dissolve without external force, it is difficult to guarantee that one day it will slowly melt on its own. At that time, the girl's memory will be restored, no one knows. ”
Yuwen Moyuan pondered for a moment and asked, "According to your estimates, if the blood clot in the back of her head is to be absorbed by itself, how long will it take at the shortest?" ”
Imperial Physician Wang estimated it in his heart and replied: "According to Weichen's experience, if the blood clot on the back of the girl's head is left unattended, I am afraid that it will not be able to dissolve in a year or two. ”
Yuwen Moyuan groaned. A year or two? Enough for him to win her heart. So he asked one last question: "If you only help her to condition her body and not dissolve her stasis." Will it endanger her life or have other problems? ”
Doctor Wang answered this question confidently: "No." Although Weichen's medical skills are not as good as those of his junior brother, he can still keep the girl's body safe. After the girl recupers for a few months, except for the blood stasis in the back of her head, she will be no different from ordinary people. ”
Yuwen Moyuan nodded, and asked Imperial Physician Wang to only recuperate Lan Jing'an's body, but not to dissolve the blood stasis now. He gave careful orders to the others in the courtyard. Then he strode back into the house.
Yuwen Moyuan gently sat on the side of Lan Jing'an's bed and fed her a small sip of water. Tell her that he is her husband. When she went out to play alone, she was pushed into the water by someone else, and her head happened to hit the stone on the shore, so she didn't remember anything.
Husband? How could she not remember? Lan Jing'an was very puzzled, but she still maintained vigilance in her eyes. As she tried to remember, her head hurt even more, and it hurt so much that she couldn't think. Her face turned pale, and sweat ran down her sideburns.
Seeing this, Yuwen Moyuan hurriedly asked Imperial Physician Wang to come in, and Imperial Physician Wang asked Lan Jing'an to stop thinking about anything immediately, and then stabbed Hegu and Neiguan with silver needles. Finally relieved her headache for a while.
