Who understands? He traveled through time with a high-spec spatial ability.

The two went to the village entrance to pick up the person together, and Xuan Yi talked on and on as they walked.

Qiao Jingjing felt a headache coming on when she heard it was a heart ailment. This was no easy condition to treat. And when Xuan Yi said it was a lingering illness from poisoning, her headache worsened.

You can't get hurt, otherwise the jade pendant might throw a tantrum.

As soon as she got within three steps of the carriage, Yu Pai became overjoyed, like a child who hadn't seen her mother in a long time.

But her joy lasted only half a minute before the jade pendant wilted. Qiao Jingjing found it amazing that she could see sadness on a blank, unmarked pendant.

Arriving at the courtyard in the carriage, Xuan Yi helped the semi-conscious Tantai Zhou down. Qiao Jingjing was also startled by his expression.

Qiao Jingjing quickly stepped forward to help, and together they helped Tantai Zhou into the house to lie down. She carefully observed Tantai Zhou's condition and found that his breathing was weak and his face was as pale as paper.

I accidentally touched his cold hand, and if it weren't for the rise and fall of his chest, I would have thought he was dead.

The house was habitable, but it lacked any warmth or human touch; it was as cold as an icebox. Qiao Jingjing couldn't bear to see him in such a state, so she said to Xuan Yi:

"I'll go home and get some things. You all settle in first. There probably aren't enough blankets in the carriage, so you should get a charcoal brazier first, and I'll take care of the rest."

Back in my room, I quickly went into my spatial storage to prepare my belongings. I packed a 10-pound down comforter, and since they only brought one charcoal brazier, I figured it wouldn't be enough, so I'd bring another one, and also a basket of smokeless charcoal.

Thinking of those icy hands, I figured their feet probably weren't much better. I grabbed two more pairs of wool socks, two hot water bottles, and a thermos with a bamboo cover—it didn't look out of place.

We carried all our bags here. Luckily, it was cold, and everyone was staying indoors by the fire; otherwise, we would have been bombarded with questions. We wouldn't lie, but dealing with the questions would have been quite troublesome.

Upon entering the inner room, Qiao Jingjing immediately gave instructions, "Guard Xuan, go and light a fire in the charcoal brazier I brought, and boil a pot of water. Pour the boiled water into that bamboo kettle."

"Dr. Feng, go and brew some medicinal soup. Use this water to boil it." He handed a bottle to Toyota as he spoke. "After it's brewed, you and Guard Xuan should each drink a bowl. Taking care of a patient requires first ensuring your own health."

The two grown men seemed to have found their pillar of support. Usually, it was Shen Qing who took care of His Highness personally, but this time he was not here. Xuan Yi and Dr. Toyota could only worry anxiously, not knowing how to handle many details.

Qiao Jingjing sent the two away and took out nitroglycerin and quick-acting heart pills from her spatial storage. One was to be taken sublingually, and the other orally. Although she didn't know how to treat it, both of these medicines were for heart problems and should have some effect.

There's also ambergris in the space. The patch she planted last time is growing very well. Although she knows it can cure heart disease, she doesn't know the specific treatment. The prescription is written in the ancient medical books, but there are differences between the two.

The prescription was for treating congenital heart disease, but this person's condition was caused by poisoning. She dared not take the risk, so she could only dry the ambergris and boil it in water to cook medicinal dishes.

Take the hot water bottles from the bundle, place the blue one at his feet and the pink one on his stomach, then cover them with both hands. Cover him with the down comforter and replace the cotton comforter that he was originally using.

A moment later, Qiao Jingjing touched his hand and found it had finally returned to a normal temperature. She didn't think there was anything wrong with it; she was simply taking care of a patient, who was asleep, and she hadn't considered anything else.

If I had to say what impressed me most, it would be that good-looking people look good even when they're sick.

The patient in bed was in a state of utter confusion.

"I'm just feeling heavy-eyelid and can't wake up. You all think I've passed out?"

His usually composed mind was disturbed by the girl's actions. She bent down to tuck him in and tidied the hot water bottle, her body emitting a pleasant scent.

That was Qiao Jingjing's favorite shower gel scent. She didn't dare use it in the summer because the fragrance was so strong and lingered for so long. She only used it in the winter when she wore more clothes. She just hadn't expected someone to have such a sensitive sense of smell.

Tantai Zhou lay there, the room quiet. All his attention was amplified and focused on his nose. Perhaps the medicine was taking effect, for he suddenly felt less heaviness in his chest, and his breathing became much easier.

"You're awake!" Qiao Jingjing exclaimed in surprise, leaning closer to Tantai Zhou. "How are you feeling? Is anything bothering you?"

Tantai Zhou turned her head away somewhat awkwardly, "Much better, thank you, young lady."

"You're welcome. I'm glad you're alright." Qiao Jingjing smiled. "I have something to do. You should lie down first. I'll go call them in. Remember to drink the medicinal food."

Seeing the girl's open and unpretentious demeanor, he suddenly felt that he had been being pretentious.

He slowly sat up in bed, feeling the softness and warmth in his palms, and a sense of comfort welled up in his heart.

I pulled my hand out from under the covers and found it was pierced through a pink object. It was fuzzy on the surface and seemed to be filled with water; I could hear water sloshing around when I shook it. There was also a puppy pattern on the other side. How did she know I was born in the Year of the Dog?

He gently stroked the object in his hand, enjoying its warm and comfortable feeling. Then, he turned his attention to the blanket covering him, gently touching the surface and feeling its softness and warmth.

He couldn't help but exclaim, "What an incredibly soft and warm blanket!" as if he had discovered a wonderful new treasure.

Just then, Toyota came in carrying a steaming bowl of medicinal food. "Your Highness, Miss Qiao told you to finish this before she left. Please drink it while it's hot."

Tantai Zhou accepted the medicinal meal, glanced at Doctor Feng, and remarked that the old man was rarely so obedient; sometimes he would even throw a tantrum and give her a hard time.

“Your Highness, we’ll probably have to spend the New Year here. We don’t know when Guard Shen will be back. How about we ask Miss Qiao to share a meal with us and have her bring us food every day?”

Tantai Zhou remained silent, staring intently at him.

"Ahem, it's mainly for His Highness's sake,"

Tantai Zhou remained silent.

.......

"Fine, fine, fine, it's just that this old man is craving something. We're not short of money for groceries, you can just deduct it from my wages." Toyota was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.

"it is good!"

"Then I'll have Xuan Yi go and tell Miss Qiao." She quickly slipped away, as if afraid he would object.

When Xuan Yi heard that his master had woken up, he was once again relieved by his intuition. Qiao Jingjing had just given him two pairs of socks to put on his master.

He received quite a few good things from Miss Qiao. This kettle, in particular, has opened his eyes once again.
