Traveling through the starry sky just for you, I was a koi in ancient times
Chapter 440: Grace and Love
The old doctor wrote out a prescription and instructed:
"You guys arrived just in time, if you were any later, people might have died.
This is emergency medicine. Make a decoction every two hours and have her drink it. If the fever gets worse at night, you have to rub her body with strong liquor to cool her down. Don't delay, otherwise it will cause a root cause of the disease..."
Zhao Chunming had no way to find out about the suspicion in his heart. He checked the accounts all the way to the capital, and then returned to Xunyang. Unexpectedly, he met his boss in trouble in Luanzhou.
After hearing what the doctor said, he quickly asked someone to get the medicine and personally stayed in the kitchen to watch people boil the medicine.
Just as the medicine was ready, Wang Jinyi's mumbling could be heard from the room. Madam Shen carried the medicine bowl in and saw that the host had a frown on his face and was muttering intermittently:
"Don't chase...Chen, Chen Zhiyuan..." The voice was soft and urgent, and the sweat on his forehead soaked the clothes he had just changed.
Mrs. Shen sat by the bed, wiping her sweat with a towel, and sighed, "You have such a high fever, and you keep saying things I can't understand."
The medicine had cooled down and Wang Jinyi wanted to feed it to her, but she clenched her teeth tightly and the medicine flowed down her face and onto her neck.
There was no other way but to pry open his teeth and slowly feed him the medicine mouthful by mouthful, but he soon choked out most of it.
This went on over and over again that night. Wang Jinyi's fever was sometimes high and sometimes low. When it was high, his whole body felt as hot as charcoal. He was talking nonsense, sometimes calling out someone's name, and sometimes shouting "Save me".
Occasionally, when the fever subsided, he would curl up and shiver, muttering, "It's cold... so cold..."
Zhao Chunming stood outside the house, listening to the noises inside, and did not sleep a wink all night.
He would go in to take a look every once in a while, rubbing his hands in anxiety. Before daybreak, he ran to find a doctor. He even invited three of the best doctors in Luanzhou City. After hearing them all say that he had to wait and see, and not rush, he finally felt at ease.
The next afternoon, Wang Jinyi finally drank the complete dose of medicine and fell into a deep sleep.
In the evening, the high fever came back, and Wang Jinyi suddenly shouted clearly: "Where are you...", and then he started coughing violently.
Zhao Chunming's heart skipped a beat. What had happened to his boss? He was worried that something bad might happen, and he couldn't afford to take the consequences.
Zhao Chunming sent two teams of people. One team returned to the Wang family in Xunyang, bringing a long letter he wrote overnight, which detailed all the information Dongqing knew about Wang Jinyi.
Another team went to the capital and Luoxia County, visiting the second master - Wang Jinyi's parents, in the name of delivering New Year gifts to Xunyang's family, and also to report their safety to their families.
On the morning of the third day, the chattering in the room gradually died down. Mrs. Shen, who was standing by the bed, had dark circles under her eyes and looked sick.
Suddenly, Mrs. Shen lifted the curtain to the inner room and called out softly, "Mr. Zhao, the boss seems to have woken up!"
When Wang Jinyi woke up, the room was filled with the bitter smell of medicine.
She turned her head and saw a familiar face. She blurted out:
"Zhu Yu-"
Zhao Chunming knew that Zhu Yu was the name his sister used when she was with the young lady, so he stepped forward and nodded lightly.
Wang Jinyi cleared his throat and asked hoarsely:
"Where is this? What's wrong with me?"
Mrs. Shen's hands trembled, and she didn't care about her burned hands. She quickly stood up and gave up her seat.
"My boss..."
Wang Jinyi suddenly became alert and tried to sit up by holding onto the bed board. Mrs. Shen came to help her but was pushed away by Wang Jinyi.
"Who are you? What are you doing?"
Wang Jinyi suppressed the dizziness and stared at the person in front of him with gritted teeth.
Zhao Chunming took two steps back and said quickly:
"Boss, I'm Zhao Chunming. I'm Zhu Yu. Do you remember Zhu Yu? I'm Zhu Yu's second brother. Boss, do you remember me?"
Wang Jinyi calmed down and thought for a while.
"Zhao Chunming? You are Zhao Chunming! Why are you here? Where is this place?"
Madam Shen sat behind Wang Jinyi and slowly sat up with her help, comforting her:
"Don't worry, Dongjia, this is Taisheng's place."
She observed Wang Jinyi's expression, glanced at Zhao Chunming again, and kept silent.
Wang Jinyi slowly remembered that she was still on the mule cart. How did she get to Tai Sheng? Is this the same Tai Sheng?
"Zhao Chunming?"
"Yes! Boss."
"This is where?"
"This is the Taisheng Government Affairs Office in Luanzhou City."
Wang Jinyi understood that this was the headquarters of the Taisheng Rice Shop in the prefectural capital. But...
Seeing his boss's doubtful face, Zhao Chunming told him about a mountain dweller named Liu Laoshi. He and his wife were chopping firewood to sell in the county town. On the way, they saw a woman curled up alone on a mule cart. They wanted to wake her up, but found that she had a severe fever, so they wanted to take her to Qingyun Temple...
Gradually, Wang Jinyi had a complete experience in his mind.
A long belt tightly wrapped Wang Jinyi around a man's back, and they kept running on the bumpy mountain road.
Occasionally she was shaken awake, and through her half-closed eyes all she saw were the swaying shadows of trees and hillsides.
He tried hard to gather his strength to figure out where he was. He moved his throat hard, but couldn't utter a word. He staggered and fell into a deep sleep again.
She still remembered that there was someone in front of her leaning against a tree trunk, breathing violently like a bellows. It seemed to be a woman, and she spoke to her.
I can't remember what we said, but she once said, "My throat is about to smoke..."
Wang Jinyi still remembers this sentence clearly.
Wang Jinyi raised his eyebrows and asked:
"Who is that person? Where does she live? Have you asked?"
Zhao Chunming handed over a piece of paper in his hand. "Boss, this is the account written by Dong Qing from the Taisheng Rice Shop in Qingyun County. He hired a car to send someone home. The one who sent you was Liu Laoshi's wife."
Wang Jinyi quickly looked at the things in his hand,
"Please ask where this Liu Laoshi lives. I want to go there in person."
"Boss, let's wait until you're better. You haven't finished the doctor's medicine yet!"
Wang Jinyi had the idea that good deeds would be rewarded, but she didn't tell anyone else. Besides, she was also afraid of causing unnecessary trouble.
In the following days, there were many things to do. While Wang Jinyi was recuperating, he and Zhao Chunming held a two-day meeting with people from Luanzhou City.
She also found out the latest situation of the Daqi Dynasty.
After the death of the crown prince, Emperor Qianyuan's temperament changed drastically. He ignored state affairs and only lingered in the harem. He even chose concubines twice and became less and less interested in attending court. He only left memorials to a young guard beside him to write for him.
The ministers and princes wrote to the emperor, and he requested that all the princes be enfeoffed outside the capital.
Now, the princes in each fiefdom have established their own factions and won over ministers, and each place has almost become a small royal court...
Wang Jinyi's previous suspicions were confirmed. If the emperor hadn't neglected state affairs, who would dare to hunt him down? It seemed he had overestimated Emperor Qianyuan, this seemingly wise...
No! Wang Jinyi was full of doubts.
She believed in the judgment she made based on what she saw with her own eyes. The emperor she met in the abbot's meditation room that year was definitely not someone who would abandon his country just because he was sad!
