The Pretty Wife of General Jinxiu Huanian

Chapter 122 Relapse of old injuries

That morning, Yunxi got up before dawn as usual, dressed herself neatly, and planned to instruct the kitchen to prepare breakfast for the prince.

As she stepped out of the room, she heard hurried footsteps coming towards her.

"Madam, something bad has happened. The prince..." The servant Ah Fu ran over in a panic, his face full of fear.

Yunxi's heart skipped a beat, and she frowned, quickly asking, "What happened to the prince?"

Ah Fu gasped for breath, his words barely coherent. "The prince was in the training ground when an old injury suddenly recurred. He collapsed to the ground in pain."

When Yunxi heard this, her face changed instantly. Without saying a word, she lifted up her skirt and ran towards the martial arts training ground.

When she arrived at the training ground, she saw that the prince's face was as pale as a piece of white paper. Beads of sweat kept rolling down his forehead. He covered his chest tightly with his hands and his body couldn't help shaking.

"Your Highness!" Yunxi rushed to the prince's side, her voice trembling.

The prince gritted his teeth, veins popping out on his forehead. He endured the pain and said with difficulty, "Yunxi, don't panic."

Yunxi quickly ordered Ah Fu: "Go get the doctor!"

Ah Fu responded, and ran out as fast as the wind.

Yunxi supported the prince, her hands tightly grasping the prince's arms, her eyes full of anxiety: "Prince, please bear with it a little longer, the doctor will be here soon."

The prince gritted his teeth, the muscles on his face tensed, trying to endure the pain, and forced a smile to comfort Yunxi: "I'm fine, don't worry."

At this time, the servants of the Marquis' Mansion heard the noise and gathered around, each with a worried look on their face.

Some were rubbing their hands, while others were frowning so hard they could kill a fly. Yunxi turned around and shouted, "Scatter! Don't crowd around!"

This shout frightened everyone and they quickly scattered.

Yunxi supported the prince and walked slowly and carefully towards the room step by step.

Back in the room, the prince was lying on the couch, groaning in pain. The sound was like a wounded beast, low and painful.

Yunxi was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, twisting her handkerchief with both hands and muttering to herself, "What should I do? What should I do?"

She walked to the bed to look at the prince, then walked to the door to look out.

A little later, Ah Fu hurried over with the doctor. The doctor was a white-haired old man, carrying a medicine box on his back, jogging all the way, panting with exhaustion.

As soon as he entered the room, the doctor didn't even bother to wipe the sweat off his face and hurried to take the prince's pulse.

He squinted his eyes, looked focused, and frowned, as if he had encountered a huge problem.

Yunxi watched nervously from the side, not daring to breathe, staring at the doctor's face without blinking, afraid to miss any expression.

"Madam, the prince's old injury has been lingering for a long time, and this relapse is very serious."

The doctor said, shaking his head. Yunxi's heart sank when she heard this, and her voice was filled with tears: "Is there any way to cure it?"

The doctor stroked his beard, thought for a moment and said, "I will prescribe some medicine to relieve the pain first, but to cure it completely, long-term conditioning is still needed.

During this conditioning process, you must avoid overexertion, avoid getting angry, and pay special attention to your diet."

Yunxi nodded hurriedly, like a chick pecking at rice: "As long as the prince can be cured, anything is fine."

As he spoke, Yunxi turned around and poured a cup of tea for the doctor, handing it to him with both hands: "Doctor, please have a drink of water and take a rest first."

The doctor took the teacup, drank it all, then sat down at the table, spread out the paper, picked up the pen, and quickly wrote the prescription.

Yunxi stood by, staring at the doctor's pen, hoping that the prescription could cure the prince's illness immediately.

After writing the prescription, the doctor put down his pen, looked up at Yunxi and said, "Madam, you must get this medicine quickly. Take it three times a day on time."

Yunxi nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, I'll arrange for someone to go right away."

As she spoke, she called a maid over, handed her the prescription, and instructed her, "Go quickly, don't delay."

The maid responded and trotted out.

Yunxi turned around and thanked the doctor again: "Doctor, thank you so much for troubling you."

The doctor waved his hand and said, "You are too polite, madam. Treating illnesses and saving lives is my duty."

Yunxi nodded: "Then I'll have to trouble you, Doctor."

The doctor wrote out the prescription and Ah Fu took it to get the medicine.

Yunxi stood by the prince's bed, staring at him without blinking, the worry on her face never gone away.

The prince was pale, lying on the bed with his eyes closed and his brows furrowed, as if he was being tormented by illness.

Yunxi reached out her hand and gently stroked the prince's forehead, muttering softly, "Prince, you must get better soon."

After a while, the prince slowly opened his eyes and saw Yunxi's worried face. He forced a smile and said weakly, "Yunxi, don't be so sad. I can still hold on."

When Yunxi heard this, tears welled up in her eyes and she cried, "Your Majesty, please don't comfort me. Seeing you like this, my heart is broken."

After getting the medicine back, Yunxi rolled up her sleeves and began to boil it. She hunched over the stove, fanning the fire with a fan, the flames reflecting off her face red.

Yunxi stared at the medicine jar, afraid that there would be any mistake.

After the medicine was boiled, Yunxi wrapped the handle of the jar with cloth and carefully brought it to the prince's bed.

She whispered, "Prince, come, drink the medicine." As she spoke, she blew on the medicine gently. The hot air hit her face, but she didn't care.

The prince looked at the black medicine, frowned, gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it, drink it!"

He tilted his head back and drank it in one gulp. Yunxi quickly handed over a handkerchief for the prince to wipe the corners of his mouth.

That day, Yunxi was busy as a top. Sometimes she changed the wet cloth for the prince to wipe his face, and sometimes she made the bed. She didn't even have time to drink water.

At night, the prince's pain eased a little, and Yunxi lay down beside the bed, glancing at the prince from time to time, and then closing her eyes for a while.

The next day, the prince's condition still hadn't improved. Yunxi paced back and forth in the room anxiously, twisting her handkerchief in her hands and muttering, "What should I do? What should I do?"

Then she stamped her feet and sent people to invite several famous doctors.

After the famous doctors arrived, they gathered together and whispered to each other, discussing the treatment plan.

Yunxi stood aside, stretched her neck, listened with her ears perked up, and clenched the corners of her clothes with both hands.

"Madam, we have come up with a solution, but it requires some precious medicinal herbs."

A famous doctor said. Yunxi didn't even think twice and said without hesitation, "No matter how precious it is, I must find it."

After saying this, he immediately ordered his servants to prepare.

The past few days, the Marquis's residence was filled with a tense atmosphere. The servants walked very lightly, fearing that any noise would upset their master.

Yunxi was so busy that she lost a lot of weight.

Yunxi also became increasingly haggard, but she always stayed by the prince's side and never left him.
