Daily life in the academy

After entering the city, they parted ways with Mu Bailian and Wenzhe's carriage. At the end of the night, they finally arrived at Dayefang. It was already late at night, and the doors and windows of the streets were closed. Cao Hua parked the carriage in front of Doctor Hu's clinic, informed Yan Qingchen in the carriage, and went forward to knock on the door.

After knocking for a long time, Doctor Hu, dressed in a white inner garment and sleepily looking, opened the door. He knew Cao Hua and asked respectfully, "Your Excellency, you have come to visit so late at night. Is there a patient in the palace who needs my attention?"

"Bai Zhi, Young Master Bai is injured and needs Doctor Hu's help in treating him." Cao Hua stated his purpose in a concise manner.

Doctor Hu's face turned serious and tense upon hearing this. He asked, "Where is Ah Zhi? Where is she injured? Is she seriously injured?"

Cao Hua briefly described Bai Zhi's injuries, then slightly stepped aside to let him look at the carriage behind him: "It's in the carriage behind. Doctor, please follow me."

He had been sent to the clinic overnight, so it was obvious that his injuries were not light. Doctor Hu, regardless of his disheveled appearance, followed Cao Hua into the carriage. Unexpectedly, he happened to meet Yan Qingchen. He quickly saluted and said, "This humble servant greets Master Yan."

Yan Qingchen nodded slightly and said, "Doctor Hu, please check Ah Zhi's pulse quickly. He started to have a high fever half an hour ago."

Although Baizhi changed her clothes and her wounds were simply treated, she fell into the water and did not receive timely and correct medical treatment. Her wounds showed signs of infection, and the fever was the best proof of this.

Doctor Hu's expression was serious as he took her pulse. After a long while, he turned to Yan Qingchen and saluted, saying, "Your Highness, Ah Zhi's health is weak. She was injured but not treated in time, and she has also caught a cold. Please have Ah Zhi brought into the clinic. I will carefully treat her wound."

Bai Zhi vaguely felt as if her body was being moved. She struggled to break free and wanted to raise her hands to cover her chest. There was only one thought in her mind, that she must not let others discover her true identity. However, her eyelids felt as heavy as if they were weighed down by a thousand pounds, and she could not open them no matter how hard she tried.

The attendants carefully carried Bai Zhi into the clinic, but just as they entered the inner room and before they could get him to the bed, the patient in their arms kept struggling and they almost lost control. After much difficulty, they put him safely on the bed, but he was still restless.

Aman had already been awakened by the noise. She rubbed her eyes and saw a room full of people. She was a little scared for a moment and subconsciously leaned towards Doctor Hu. Only then did she see Baizhi on the couch.

"Godfather, what happened to Azhi?" Aman's little face was full of worry and helplessness.

"Don't worry if you're injured. Godfather will treat Azhi right away."

Bai Zhi felt that the restraint on her was gone, but she could hear the whispers of people around her, and a sense of crisis arose. She couldn't let Yan Qingchen and the others discover her true identity, and she couldn't let anyone else take her pulse. Only Doctor Hu could do it...

"Doctor Hu...Doctor Hu...I want to see Doctor Hu..."

Her struggles became more intense, and she was on the verge of falling off the couch. Yan Qingchen was worried that his wound would be broken again, and also worried that he would fall off the couch. He quickly stepped forward and clamped his hands, saying anxiously, "Doctor Hu, what's wrong with him? His wound is so painful. Can you treat him quickly?"

Doctor Hu wiped the sweat from his forehead and hurried back to the front hall to get the medical box.

Ah Man wiped the sweat off Bai Zhi's forehead with a distressed look on her face. She could vaguely hear her mumbling something. She bent down and leaned over Bai Zhi's mouth to listen carefully to her mumbling. After listening for a long time, she finally heard clearly. She raised her hand and gently patted her forehead, saying, "Ah Zhi, Ah Man is beside you. My adoptive father is also here. He will be here soon."

A-man...father...Bai Zhi thought for a long time before finally realizing that she had arrived at Doctor Hu's clinic. A heavy stone finally fell from her heart, and her consciousness gradually faded.

After Yan Qingchen felt that Bai Zhi had stopped struggling, he signaled Doctor Hu to come forward and treat him.

Doctor Hu wiped the sweat from his forehead again and said respectfully, "Your Highness, the patient requires a quiet environment. Could you please go out and wait, or return to the palace first? I will inform you as soon as Ah Zhi gets better."

Yan Qingchen stood up, glanced at Bai Zhi, who was lying on the couch with a pale face, and said, "Be sure to do your best." After that, he walked out without looking back and went straight to the carriage.

Cao Hua asked outside the carriage: "Your Highness, should we go back to Prince Ning's Mansion directly now?"

"Don't reply yet, wait for news."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After Doctor Hu waited for Yan Qingchen to leave the inner hall, he turned his back to prepare medicine for the wound and instructed Aman to undress Bai Zhi and treat her wound first.

Following Doctor Hu's instructions, Aman took off Baizhi's clothes on her left side. After untying the rough bandage, he saw a deep wound on her left knee where the bone was visible. There were also tiny pieces of sharp gravel embedded in the wound. After a while of busy work, he finally picked out the gravel one by one with tweezers. Fortunately, Baizhi fainted, otherwise the pain would be unbearable.

Doctor Hu handed the medicine to A-man, who applied it to Baizhi. Even with the cooperation of father and daughter, it took half an hour to completely clean the wound.

Doctor Hu went to the outer hall to get some medicine. Seeing that the prince's carriage had not left yet, he knew that he was waiting for news from him, so he reported the news to him as soon as he cleaned the wound.

After hearing the news, Yan Qingchen left with peace of mind. Before leaving, he even asked Cao Hua to leave a bag of money.

"I will return home first and come to see Ah Zhi later."

Doctor Hu bowed respectfully outside the carriage and said, "Your Highness, rest assured. I will do my best to treat Ah Zhi."

**

Bai Zhi was not completely unconscious during her coma. She could occasionally hear a lot of noise around her, as if Mu Bailian was chattering non-stop. Sometimes it was very quiet around her, with only the regular sound of pounding medicine.

When she opened her eyes again, Bai Zhi couldn't tell whether it was day or night. She turned her eyes to observe the surrounding environment. Yan Qingchen was sitting on the chair to her right, quietly flipping through the book in his hand. From her perspective, she could see his full forehead, straight nose and well-defined jawline. It was a very superior side profile.

Bai Zhi remained silent, admiring the scene quietly. Suddenly, she met the man's deep eyes. She smiled subconsciously and blurted out in a hoarse voice, "Good morning, Brother Yan."

Yan Qingchen's expression faltered for a moment, but he quickly recovered and said, "It's already evening."

"Oh, good evening then." A little silly.

Yan Qingchen chuckled and called out to Doctor Hu. Doctor Hu then lifted the door curtain and walked straight in. Seeing that Bai Zhi had finally woken up, he hurried forward to take her pulse.

"Well, this sleep has restored a lot of my energy. I just need to rest for a while and change the medicine frequently."
