The Surgeon's Guide to Survival in the Royal Palace, Section 136
The weather is not good these days, in May, the Fenhe River basin began to enter the rainy season, the sky outside is always cloudy, with thunder, the rain finally falls, such weather is a living torment for people with bad joints.
The old injuries on Yan Yunzhou's body were particularly difficult in such weather, but he didn't say a word.
Ning blamed people with hot water, dipped a towel in hot water to help him warm the joints of his knees, and waited until the two knees were finally not so cold before putting Tang Pozi in the crook of his leg to help him cover the quilt.
Yan Yunzhou held his wrist, he really didn't have any strength in his hand, only the coldness of his palm remained, and he raised his eyes:
"I'm fine, you can rest too."
Ning Ji looked at his face and listened to his words, and there was a sense of anger in his heart that had nowhere to express:
"I don't want to find a mirror for you to take a look at, I don't want to hear it if it's useless."
The words were ruthless, but the movements of his hands were very honest, he did not let go of Yan Yunzhou's hand, but instead clenched him harder, trying not to recall the unacceptable picture in the dream just now.
Yan Yunzhou paused, and finally revealed a bit of fragility in his eyes:
"Yu'an, can you hug me?"
Ning Qi couldn't refuse Yan Yunzhou who had such a request, and gently hugged the person on the bed, only by feeling that Yan Yunzhou was really in his arms, he seemed to be able to get a moment of peace.
Yan Yunzhou could barely rely on the soft pillow behind him, so Ning Qi sat behind him, holding the person in his arms:
"Take the medicine and sleep, don't worry about the outside, and have a good rest."
The wounds sutured around Yan Yunzhou's body made him dare not move all the time, and the feeling of suffocation in his chest was a little aggravated:
"You can lie down with me for a while."
In the past few days, Ning has been boiling too hard by his side, and the red blood in his eyes has not faded.
Even when he was lying down, his eyes always followed the figure of Ning Qi in the room, and he could always feel that Ning Qi's mood was not quite right, and the person always woke up from his dream at night in the past two days.
He was afraid that this incident would stimulate Ning Ji, so he would talk to Ning Ji more when he was in some spirits, and he would always pull that person with him when he slew.
"Okay, you go to sleep first, and I'll touch Yang Sheng and you later, and I'll come over to accompany you, okay?"
Ning took the person in his arms, lowered his head and landed a kiss on his eyebrows, and his hand naturally fell on his heart, helping him to follow the position of his chest one by one.
Ning Qi was extremely patient with him, and it seemed that he was still the same as usual, but Yan Yunzhou could still feel that Ning Qi's emotions were wrong.
However, Ning Ji kept his mouth shut and didn't talk about his condition, his spirit was relatively poor, and he didn't have much time to be awake in a day, and he didn't care about what to say to him.
Ning Yi seemed to be the same as before in front of Yan Yunzhou, but he had changed his appearance to the outside,
Since Yan Yunzhou woke up, some generals in the army came over to see him, but Ning Zhi ordered Zou Xiaohu to stand at the door of the courtyard, and all the people who visited the hospital were stopped at the door.
Yan Yunzhou was not energetic, and after a while, he fell asleep in Ning Qi's arms, Ning Qi gently put the person down, helped him cover the quilt, stared at his sleeping face for a long time before closing his eyes and suppressing the anxiety and uneasiness in his heart, and turned around to the gate of the courtyard outside.
Sure enough, at this time, there were already generals in the army who wanted to come over to see Yan Yunzhou, and they were being stopped outside by Zou Xiaohu at the moment:
"You just pass it on, we just need to see the prince."
"Yes, we'll meet."
"The prince must also be concerned about the situation in the army, and I promise that there will only be a cup of tea."
"Let's go in and have a look."
It was the first time for Zou Xiaohu to face these high-ranking generals in the army like this, and his expression was also a little embarrassed, but Ning Ji had already explained to him that even if His Royal Highness was down, he would be stopped at the door and no one would be allowed to enter.
Since he had already recognized Ning Blame as the master, he could only obey his orders alone, and could only stop these generals at the door while smiling.
The noise at the door became louder and louder, and Ning Ji pushed open the door and went out, seeing several generals crowded at the gate of the courtyard.
Fang Cai's gentle and smiling face when he looked at Yan Yunzhou was gone, the corners of his lips drooped slightly, and his eyes slowly walked with the unique sense of oppression that he has been practicing medicine all year round:
"What are the generals doing when they come to the door? The prince can't see guests at the moment. ”
Yan Yunzhou has been awake for almost two days, and at the beginning, these generals could still press the master, but after two days, Yan Yunzhou was stunned in the courtyard, and they couldn't sit still one by one:
"Ning Gongzi, we will see the prince once, and we promise to be on the same side."
Ning Yi stood on the steps, without a superfluous expression on his face, and even his words did not change:
"The prince can't see guests at the moment."
Li Han was a little anxious, since they sent Yan Yunzhou to this courtyard that day, he hadn't seen the face of the prince, he even began to have some terrible conjectures, he didn't care about anything else, he didn't take off the saber on his body and stepped forward, his eyes were firmly fixed on Ning Yao:
"Ning Gongzi, we only see the prince."
Ning Qi looked at him coldly, and his saber didn't even sweep his eyes:
"Is General Lee ready to break in? I said that the prince can't see guests, but he can't see guests, do you think this injury is very common? If you don't want his life, go and see it, and go to see it. ”
Yan Yunzhou can't resist the infection at all now, from the time he woke up to the present, he rarely let in the house, every time he goes out and goes in again, he will disinfect his whole body with alcohol, and the house is also disinfected three times a day, afraid that Yan Yunzhou will be infected.
Li Han paused when he heard his voice, bowed back a step, and bowed with both hands:
"Ning Gongzi, it's my rudeness, I'll leave if I don't bother the prince to recuperate."
After speaking, he dragged everyone to the courtyard where everyone left, and before leaving, he didn't forget to look inside the house, Zou Xiaohu watched a group of generals who said everything in the army obediently left, and his admiration for Ning Yi was simply overflowing.
Ning Qi returned to the room calmly without any expression, Yan Yunzhou fell asleep, and he sat on the edge of the table, since the war had started and the other party already had gunpowder, then he had no need to restrain himself.
If he injured Yan Yunzhou with explosives, he had to pay the price, since he wanted to use gunpowder, he had to let them know how gunpowder should be used, and he wanted them to know what a real war was.
Lines fell on the paper, and in the picture were three convex lenses linked together to form a device, which was nothing else, it was the simplest sight.
When they were in graduate school, one of their roommates in their dorm liked to shoot guns and used to make a simple scope in their dorm room.
He glanced at the design drawings and found that the main function of the scope is actually to use optical lenses to imprint the target image and the line of sight on a focused horizontal plane.
And he doesn't need to make a complex sight that can zoom, he just needs to let the scope play a secondary aiming role within a range of two hundred meters.
"Ahem..."
Just when Ning Qi was about to revise the drawings, there was a muffled coughing sound in the room, Ning Qi immediately got up, the people in the room bowed slightly, put their hands to their lips, coughed their faces were a little red, and he walked quickly to the bedside:
"Don't rush, slow down, it's okay."
He sat on the edge of the bed, slightly lifted up some of Yan Yunzhou's body, put his hand on his heart, and helped him follow it one by one.
The voice was no longer gone, and in the face of Li Han's generals, Yan Yunzhou coughed hard, his eyes began to blacken, and his tinnitus was also accompanied by a cough, and Ning Qi's voice was like a layer of mist, which made him feel that he couldn't really hear it.
It's just that he is very familiar with his breath, and the fragile emotions are always very obvious in illness, his hand moved slightly, and Ning Yi held him:
"You have lost too much blood, and you have a bit of a burden on your heart and lungs, it's okay, we'll take care of it slowly, and it will be fine."
Ning Ji hugged the person in his arms, surrounded him with a quilt, and shook him like a child:
"Feeling better? I made some shredded chicken porridge, would you like to try it? ”
The tinnitus gradually faded, and Yan Yunzhou heard Ning Qi's words clearly, turned his head slightly, and his voice was low but with a smile:
"You, did it?"
"yes, what when I'm only going to have surgery? I can make a lot of porridge, and I can also make preserved egg and lean porridge, but I don't have time to make preserved eggs, so I can only give you a shredded chicken porridge first, how about it? A face? ”
He knew that Yan Yunzhou would not have any appetite under the frequent high fever, but he was now using aspirin and sulfonamides, and he had to eat something in his stomach.
"Okay, I'm going to eat more of what you do."
Yan Yunzhou leaned on Ning Qi's body, every breath was involved in the wounds around him, but as long as he was awake, he would not show the slightest pain.
Ning Ji knew that he didn't want him to worry, but every time he saw his forbearance, he felt even more unbearable and depressed.
He put a lot of soft pillows behind Yan Yunzhou, helped him to lean on it, personally took the porridge and sat on the edge of the bed, blew the porridge and fed it to his lips:
"Don't force it, eat as much as you can."
Yan Yunzhou tried his best to eat more, but after eating half a bowl, his stomach swelled a little, he didn't say anything, but Ning Yi directly put away the spoon:
"Just to subside the fever, half a bowl is enough, wait for two quarters of an hour before taking medicine."
This time I woke up and the pain around my body was not relieved much, but fortunately, my spirit was better than the previous two times, Yan Yunzhou still couldn't rest assured about the situation in the army after all, he shook Ning Yao's hand, and said with some caution in his eyebrows:
"What's going on in the army for the past two days?"
Ning Yi didn't look at him, and drank all the remaining porridge of Yan Yunzhou with a spoon, and spoke:
"I haven't been out in the past few days, I don't know."
"Down... Ahem, help me summon His Highness in the afternoon, and the generals in the army..."
Before Yan Yunzhou's words were finished, Ning Ji suddenly raised his head:
"The injuries on your body are not light, there are stitches in many places, and the abdomen is even more open, and now you can't see the living to prevent infection."
There was no room for negotiation at all when he said this, Yan Yunzhou looked at his expression, and tentatively spoke again:
"Is it good to be through the screen?"
Ning Ji slammed the porridge bowl in his hand on the small table at the head of the bed, Yan Yunzhou closed his voice and only looked at him with his eyes open:
"You want to know what's going on in the military, right? In the past two days, there has been no major movement in the army, and the people on the other side have not come, and both sides have continued the previous stalemate, is there anything else you want to ask? ”
Yan Yunzhou shook his head slightly, and didn't say anything more, because he could feel that Ning Qi's emotions seemed to have been suppressed.
In this way, two more days passed, and Ning Qi almost never left Yan Yunzhou's side, considerate and meticulous, but still let Zou Xiaohu guard the door.
Yan Yunzhou couldn't see anyone outside, and people outside couldn't see him, and even Li Yan was blocked by Ning Zhi when he went to the door twice.
After a long time, the people outside inevitably didn't have some other ideas, and finally this day Ning Ji walked out of the courtyard and went straight to the big tent, when he entered, Li Yan was talking to the generals about the follow-up war, seeing him come in, everyone looked at it silently, Li Han subconsciously stood up:
"Ning Gongzi, is there something wrong with the prince?"
Ning Yi opened the curtain and came in:
"No, he's asleep, Your Highness, I want to know how you're going to deal with the people on the other side of the river?"
This was the first time that Ning Ji had openly inquired about the war without Yan Yunzhou being present, and Li Yan was also a little surprised, but Ning Ji's military exploits in Youzhou were there, and he naturally didn't have any opinions on his direct questioning:
"Now that the other side also has gunpowder in their hands, this is a disadvantage for us, they have boats, it is more convenient to move, and our artillery fire on the river bank may not be able to play a defensive role.
But Wu Han and Xiao Huai are not very likely to lead the army to attack it, so a stalemate is inevitable. ”
Ning Ji put the drawings in his hand on Li Yan's table, and his expression was rare and cold:
"Their gunpowder is just a Dong Shi Xiaofeng, I won't let go of any of the people who have touched Yan Yunzhou, won't they use boats as bait? Then those ships don't have to be left for them anymore. ”
This is really uplifting:
"Do you have a way to wreck a ship?"
Ning Blame didn't want to destroy the other party's ship, he wanted everyone to pay for Yan Yunzhou's injuries that night.
