When the princess gets married, the general must not flee
Chapter 11 Saving Xuanru
“Cough, cough, cough…!”
Just as Lu Shuru was about to say something, a violent cough suddenly came from the backyard.
Lu Shuru hurried in and Bai Xin followed him in.
Bai Xin followed Lu Shuru to the inner room, only to see that there was only a large bunk bed in the room. On the bed lay a thin little boy, about seven or eight years old. He kept coughing, his chest heaving rapidly, and he kept gasping for breath.
Bai Xin frowned and moved closer to the bed. Looking at the little boy's appearance, her heart tightened. The little boy was very ill.
"Dad, Mom..." The boy moaned a few times in a daze.
"Xiao Xuan." Lu Shuru leaned over to the boy's ear and called softly.
“Brother, brother, it hurts… cough… cough… cough…”
Xiao Xuan thought about it and tried to open his eyes, then he cried out twice and started coughing non-stop...
Bai Xin also climbed onto the bunk bed and knelt beside Xiao Xuan. She then took out a small brocade box from the small side bag she carried on her back, opened the box, took out a stethoscope, and inserted it into Xiao Xuan's chest to listen to the heart.
Fortunately, I carry a small bag when I go out. I use the key to open it in advance and take out a small brocade box, and put some common medicines and equipment in it, just in case.
It was difficult for her to take things in this laboratory. She could not search for objects remotely, and could only use keys to open boxes and door locks.
Oddly enough, as long as it was a door lock, her key would fit and she could successfully enter her laboratory space, so every time she went in, she would prepare the things she needed in advance. Otherwise, she would need to unlock the door in person and then take it, which would make people think she was a monster.
Lu Shuru stared at her movements with wide eyes, not knowing what she was going to do.
Shi Xiao raised his head and stared at her closely.
"Bai Xin?!" Shi Xiao called out softly to confirm his doubts.
He had privately expressed his doubts on the way to the wedding, but because there were many people around at that time, he did not dare to question it. Today, when he saw what the princess from another world took out, his doubts became even greater.
Bai Xin raised her head and blinked at him with a smile. With this confirmation, both of them were filled with excitement, but now was not the time to talk in detail.
Bai Xin suppressed her excitement. She could hear that the little boy had severe moist rales in his lungs. She took out a thermometer, asked Lu Shuru to hold Xiao Xuan, and then put it under Xiao Xuan's armpit.
"How long has Xiaoxuan been in this state?" she asked Lu Shuru.
"It's been three or four days!" Lu Shuru answered while hugging Xiao Xuan tightly.
"Why don't you take him to see a doctor?" After asking, Bai Xin felt stupid again. In their situation, they probably didn't have the money to take him to see a doctor.
"We don't have any money." Lu Shuru lowered his head and murmured.
really.
But this disease has been delayed and has become more serious. It was originally just a simple fever, but without medical treatment, and the living environment and diet were poor, it developed into pneumonia. If it is not treated, I am afraid my life will be in danger.
In fact, Lu Shuru had taken Xiao Xuan to see a doctor before, but he didn't have money, and the doctor was not a saint. He just prescribed some cheap herbs for them and drove them away. That's why Xiao Xuan's illness became more and more serious.
Bai Xin nodded and said nothing. She estimated the time, took out the thermometer and looked at it. It was 40 degrees. She had to keep the fever at this degree for a few days. She was afraid that the child would get crazy from the fever.
"Hurry up and get a basin of warm water!" Bai Xin ordered Niu Shuru.
"Li Ze, help me take off this child's clothes!" Bai Xin said to Shi Xiao again. At that time, the only one who fell off the cliff with her was Li Ze. He called her Bai Xin just now, so he must be Li Ze.
"Okay!" Li Ze was so excited that his lips trembled.
The two of them divided the work and cooperated. Shi Xiao took off Xiao Xuan's clothes, and Bai Xin took out a bottle of children's antipyretic medicine from the box and fed it to Xiao Xuan.
"Did you even bring the medicine?" Li Ze was stunned when he saw Bai Xin taking out the medicine and equipment from the box.
"You didn't bring anything with you?" Bai Xin looked up at him, then lowered his head to take out a skin test needle, tried it on Xiao Xuan's hand, and then waited.
She needs to take some antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs, and to be on the safe side, she still needs to do a skin test.
"Nothing!" Li Ze shook his head.
We all came from other times, so is there such a big difference? At least bring the equipment he was wearing with you!
Just after the skin test injection was completed and the tools were put away, Lu Shuru came in, followed by Min'er and the group of children.
Bai Xin added some Huoxiang Zhengqi water into the water, and then asked Li Ze, Niu Shuru and others to wipe Xiao Xuan's body.
The children who came in saw Bai Xin treating Xiao Xuan and knelt down and said, "Sister, you are a doctor, it's great, please save Xiao Xuan."
One or two little boys ran over, knelt beside Xiao Xuan, and said, "Xiao Xuan, please get well soon. My brothers and sisters brought me lots of rice, and Xiao Min even gave us candied haws. Look, we saved some for you!"
As the boy spoke, he took out a small candied haws from a small bag and handed it to Xiao Xuan.
Xiao Xuan took some antipyretic medicine and wiped his body with warm water. He felt refreshed. He raised his eyes and nodded weakly.
Bai Xin looked at them and was moved. Suddenly, she had an idea in her mind. Well, she would plan it carefully after she returned.
"Don't worry, I will cure Xiao Xuan, but now you can go out first and let Xiao Xuan have a good rest, okay?"
Bai Xin coaxed them patiently and said that she knew they were worried about Xiao Xuan's condition, but too many people would cause poor air circulation, which would affect the condition.
Then he instructed Min'er: "Xiao Min, take them out and make some porridge and bring it in. Xiao Xuan must have not eaten for a long time, that's why he is so weak."
"Yes!" Min'er quickly led everyone in the room out.
After Min'er and the others left, Bai Xin checked the skin test and found no problems. He gave Xiaoxuan some anti-inflammatory medicine, took out a bottle of glucose, and gave Xiaoxuan some nutrient solution.
Li Ze watched her series of movements and the drops of glucose falling. He felt as if he was in another world and took a deep breath.
Lu Shuru watched Bai Xin fiddling with these things he had never seen before, and he also inserted a needle into Xiao Xuan's hand, and a liquid filled with some unknown device entered Xiao Xuan's body.
Lu Shuru just stared blankly, wanting to ask but not daring to.
Bai Xin looked at him with amusement: "Don't worry, I won't harm Xiao Xuan. These medicines are to help him reduce his fever."
"No, no, no, I believe the girl, I'm just, just curious..."
Lu Shuru quickly waved his hands to explain that he had seen Xiao Xuan's mental state improve significantly, so he certainly would not doubt Bai Xin. Besides, Bai Xin had saved them and given them rice.
"Don't be nervous. I don't mean to blame you."
Bai Xin smiled and said while checking the IV, "Xiao Xuan is your brother?"
"Well, my name is Lu Xuanru." Shu Ru said softly while watching Bai Xin's actions.
Seeing him like this, Bai Xin didn't ask any further questions.
"I am the eldest son of the Ancheng Lu family, and this is my younger brother Lu Xuanru." Lu Shuru began to tell Bai Xin the story. For some reason, he felt that Bai Xin was a trustworthy person.
It turned out that he was the legitimate son of the richest man in Ancheng, and Xuanru was his younger brother from the same mother. Just three years ago, he thought that his fate would be the same as other rich children, either inheriting the family business or passing the imperial examination to enter an official career and bring honor to the family.
Who knew that fate would change because of the discovery of an iron mine in the back hills of the family's village! Originally, the discovery of the iron mine should have been reported to the court, but my father was tricked by a trusted shopkeeper into drinking and was knocked unconscious for three days.
When he woke up three days later, before he had time to report to the authorities, the government officials came to search his house, claiming that he had concealed the mine and intended to secretly communicate with the Southern Liang Kingdom to sell the iron ore.
This was a serious crime punishable by the execution of the entire family. Fortunately, the housekeeper in the mansion was smart and realized that something was wrong. He sent him and Xuan Ru out through the secret passage in advance and arranged for their Xiao Si to pretend to be them, so they escaped.
The case was not tried in detail, but the house was searched, the parents and relatives were charged with rebellion, and all the people in the house were killed overnight, and some of the women were sold.
"It's obvious that they have been completely eradicated," Bai Xin looked at them with pity and asked again.
"Then you won't go and seek justice?"
"We escaped as criminals. Secondly, Xuanru and I were still young, and my father didn't leave a single word before his death, so we don't know the reason." Lu Shuru lowered his head with a dim look in his eyes.
"Before the housekeeper sent us away, he said that he had gone to look for my father the night before on my mother's orders, but he didn't see him. He only saw a shopkeeper who said that my father was drunk at a social gathering and had fallen asleep."
"The housekeeper had accidentally seen the shopkeeper in contact with my father's mortal enemy in the mall, so he was suspicious of him, but he couldn't find my father. The next day, many officials were outside the gate of the mansion, saying that my father was colluding with the enemy and wanted to confiscate our property. The housekeeper quickly escorted us out and told us about the shopkeeper he suspected, asking us to stay away from him."
"Then why did you come to the capital?" Bai Xin asked puzzledly.
"When we first came out, we secretly went to see him and found that the shopkeeper was still in charge of our original shop. We also heard that he would go to the capital once every three months. We thought that since there was a government official, it was definitely not just a simple business rivalry, so we brought Xuanru and the concubines to the capital."
Speaking of the shopkeeper, Shu Ru's eyes were full of hatred.
"Did you find anything when you got to the capital?" Bai Xin continued to ask.
"Well, we found that the shopkeeper would go into an inn and stay for half a day when he arrived in the capital. Later we heard that this inn was the private property of the second prince." Lu Shuru didn't dare to think further, because with his power, even the county magistrate could not do anything, let alone the prince.
"Do you suspect that the person behind this is the Second Prince?"
Bai Xin had just gotten married and was not clear about the relationships between the various characters.
"Why would he do that?"
"Ancheng is adjacent to Nanliang and Xichang. Going further from Ancheng is Lancheng, which is a border town bordering Xichang. The second prince's mother's family is from Xichang!" Li Ze said lightly.
"Oh, then Ancheng is the economic and transportation hub, and the lifeline of food and fodder reserves!" Bai Xinxin understood.
"But since he is the descendant of a woman from another race, he should not be a candidate for succession."
Bai Xin looked at Li Ze and smiled faintly: "Then what is the Second Prince planning to do to seize the Lu family's wealth?"
"So Ancheng can be regarded as the general logistics area of Lancheng. I'm afraid there will be some problems in Lancheng this time." Li Ze nodded and said with a smile.
If we go to the battle at night, we are heading to Lancheng.
Bai Xin rolled her eyes at him and didn't want to pay attention to him. She understood the importance of An Cheng. That was also her honorary husband's business, and she had no right to interfere!
Lu Shuru looked up at the two of them in astonishment. It was the first time he heard someone truly tell him the reason why his family was destroyed. He felt pain and helplessness!
He is now alone and weak, and even having trouble getting enough food and clothing is a problem. How can he have the ability to resist the powerful?
Thinking of this, I couldn't help feeling sad and lonely.
"I'm afraid we can't help you with revenge!"
Bai Xin looked at Lu Shuru. She had just married and was still an abandoned woman. Apart from having some money, she could not help much politically.
"Miss, you are too kind. I am terrified that we are bothering you with our family affairs!"
Lu Shuru quickly bowed and apologized.
"You don't have to be polite in front of us in the future, and just treat us as your friends!" Bai Xin quickly reminded him that he hated this kind of etiquette of bowing all the time.
"We may not be able to help you with revenge, but I do have an idea. Let me tell you. You can consider it." Bai Xin looked at Lu Shuru and continued.
"You are all still children, and you can't do much if you go out to work. Since you can read, are you willing to teach the children outside to read and write? You can also continue your studies. What do you think?"
Lu Shuru looked up at Bai Xin excitedly, his lips trembling and he couldn't utter a word.
"As for your daily life, you don't have to worry about it. From tomorrow on, I will take care of your daily life. I will also teach you some survival skills, such as medical skills, in the future."
The children outside the door came to bring porridge to Xuanru. When they heard that they could also learn to read and write, and could also learn medical skills, they all ran in. Gao Xing asked, "Can we really read and write?"
"Of course, anything is fine." Bai Xin looked at them with a smile.
"That's great, thank you sister, thank you brother!"
The group of children all knelt down and kowtowed in unison. Even Xiao Xuan, who was still dazed, tried to struggle to get up and kneel down. Li Ze quickly hugged him and pressed him on the bed.
Bai Xin sighed. They were so excited that they knelt down. It was no use saying no or scolding them. They really needed to be taught slowly...
Min'er couldn't help crying again. It was such a blessing for her and these children to meet the princess.
"You all should get up. Xiao Xuan is still sick. You should go out first. Xiao Xuan needs to get better soon so that he can learn to read with you!" Bai Xin looked at them gently.
"it is good!!"
Hearing that it would delay Xiaoxuan's treatment, they quickly got up and ran out. Xiaoxuan was also very strong. Even though he had no strength and no appetite to eat, he drank the porridge in big gulps.
"Shu Ru, do you find it difficult for you to teach them personally?" Bai Xin was also worried that he was just a child and would have a psychological burden!
"Shuru will do his best and will never let the lady down!" Lu Shuru knelt down and kowtowed three times.
I never thought that I could continue to read and learn to read in this life.
"Okay, you've hit your head and I have to heal it. Don't kowtow to me again!" Bai Xin held his forehead helplessly.
Lu Shuru got up, wiped his forehead, and a smile appeared on his thin and pale face.
"I will send someone to prepare some food and clothes for you tomorrow. I will also prepare some medicine for Xiaoxuan. Take the medicine on time. If you have any questions, you can go to the mansion to find Sister Min'er." As he said that, Bai Xin took out a message token and told him the address.
Seeing that Xiao Xuan's glucose nutrient solution was finished, Bai Xin pulled out the needle and put the empty bottle back into the brocade box. They were all used to it.
Bai Xin looked at Xiao Xuan's condition again. The fever had subsided and his mental state was much better. All that was left was for him to take medicine and slowly recover.
"Tonight, pay attention to whether Xiao Xuan has a fever again. If he does, feed him the medicine I gave you and wipe his body with warm water." Bai Xin instructed Lu Shuru.
"Okay!" Lu Shuru answered earnestly.
"If the high fever doesn't go away, you can also send someone to call Shi Xiao, and he will come to tell me!" Bai Xin said, taking out a badge and handing it to Lu Shuru, and telling him the address.
Lu Shuru held the badge and didn't know how to react for a moment.
"It's getting late, so we'll leave first."
Without waiting for Lu Shuru to react, Bai Xin stood up and sorted out the things on hand, and Min'er hurried to help.
The three of them walked out of the dilapidated temple under the reluctant gazes of a group of children.
After walking a short distance, Bai Xin stretched out and let out a breath. The atmosphere had been a bit depressing today, but now it had finally eased a little.
"Princess, if you give the token to Lu Shuru, aren't you afraid that your identity will be exposed?" Min'er asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, if he is sensible, he won't say anything, and I can train him well in the future; if he is not sensible, that's okay, although my identity is embarrassing, it's not shameful. Helping a few kids shouldn't cause trouble to the General's Mansion." Bai Xin said indifferently. Anyway, she was not afraid of causing trouble to the General's Mansion.
Lu Shuru felt the token in his hand was heavy. This was the token of General Ye's Mansion, but the address was the courtyard next to the General's Mansion. Everyone knew that General Ye's Mansion never allowed women to enter or leave. Some time ago, General Ye's Mansion had a wedding, and it was very lively. Could it be that Miss Bai was the general's wife? !
He didn't dare to imagine it, but judging from her behavior, she didn't seem like an ordinary maid, so she must be from a prominent family.
He held the token tightly in his hand and put it close to his body, making up his mind that no matter whether she was the general's wife or not, Miss Bai went out with a maid's makeup, and she must not want outsiders to know her identity. Then he couldn't accept the favor and cause trouble for her.
