Chapter 188 - Feeding

Hearing the rustling of footsteps, Xiao Qingqian curled the corner of his lips as a dim light quickly flashed past his eyes.

Wei Qing returned to her room and continued researching the medicinal prescription. Xiao Qingqian followed behind her and glanced at her from the window before returning to his room as well.

The guard had followed his orders and was about to pick up his things. The guard tried to persuade him, but he was cut off by a knife and could only remain silent.

That night, Xiao Qingqian was wearing the clothes of a Plague patient, drinking water and eating food from his Plague patient. Although his body had always been strong, the Plague arrived menacingly, and in the end, he did not manage to escape from it.

Hearing that Xiao Qingqian had gotten very hot, Wei Qing's face suddenly changed several times.

In the past few days, the spread of the plague had slowed down by quite a bit. Furthermore, Xiao Qingqian had always been extremely healthy, so how could he possibly be infected by the plague?

She judged the dark guard, who lowered his head, not daring to meet her bright eyes.

"What the hell is going on?" she asked angrily.

Right now she was really busy, if Xiao Qingqian pretended not to be sick, she would really settle things with him!

The guard wanted to say something but hesitated.

"Bang!"

Wei Qing slammed the table hard, her face was red with anger.

"It's the prince who wants to help the imperial concubine test her medicine, so …"

Hearing the secret guard's words, Wei Qing's eyes became round.

The existing medicines were enough to reduce the speed at which the plague spread. However, the new medicinal prescription was not something that could be tested so easily.

If someone died while trying out the new medicinal prescription, it would definitely lead to an even worse speculation and uncontrollable chaos.

After all, she was from the North, and this time it was from the South.

"Come with me!" She quickly took the medicine box and went into Xiao Qingqian's room.

Xiao Qingqian's room wasn't far from hers, and it hadn't even been half an hour before she arrived. She put on her cloth cloth and let the hidden guards stay outside as she checked Xiao Qingqian's pulse.

At this time, Xiao Qingqian's consciousness was still clear as he looked at Wei Qing, and the corner of his mouth curled up slightly.

Wei Qing stared at him angrily, "Why didn't you discuss this with me before you made such a decision?"

"Why not?"

Xiao Qingqian did not reply, and only looked deeply at her.

At this moment, his gaze was just too gentle. Wei Qing's heartstrings moved slightly, but she quickly recovered her calm.

"I'll use the old recipe to help you control the fever first!" Wei Qing said softly.

His hand was suddenly grabbed. It was not very strong, but perhaps it was because he was having a high fever and his palm was abnormally hot.

The blazing temperature flowed down along his wrist and into his heart, causing Wei Qing's heart to beat faster and faster.

"Let's use the new recipe!" His voice was extremely hoarse, but his words were spoken without any room for discussion.

Wei Qing's eyes slightly trembled, "Xiao Qingqian, you should know that the new medicinal prescription has not been tested, and I am not sure if it will cause any other symptoms either!"

Sometimes, she felt that Xiao Qingqian was just a madman. It would be fine if he just handed the task to the dark guards, if he lost his life in this plague, wouldn't that be letting Xiao Hanqi off easy?

Xiao Qingqian stared at her, and suddenly chuckled.

At that moment, the laughter came as Wei Qing was waiting for him in surprise.

"You are still worried about This King! Nothing will happen to This King. How dare you use the new formula! "

Wei Qing pursed her lips, hesitating.

"Use the new recipe!" He squeezed out another few words before fainting.

Wei Qing hesitated for a long time before finally using the new recipe.

She would always stay by his side. If anything happened, she would immediately rescue him.

The guard quickly made some medicine according to her prescription and brought it in.

Wei Qing shook him, seeing that he did not have any reaction, he frowned.

"Get me a spoon!"

The guard nodded and handed her a spoon.

Wei Qing scooped up a spoonful of medicine and blew it cold, then brought it to his mouth.

However, Xiao Qingqian resisted instinctively, and refused to drink the medicine, causing the brown liquid to flow down the corner of his mouth all the way to his collar.

The hidden guard felt a headache coming. After wearing the cloth cloth, he helped up, and tried to pinch his chin to drink the medicinal juice. However, he was still unable to do so.

"This isn't a solution!" Wei Qing muttered as she stared at the medicinal juice in her hand.

The guard had no solution now. "Princess, you have to think of something!"

Wei Qing thought for a bit, took a sip of the medicinal juice, and was about to add the medicine, but was stopped by the guard. She was startled, and swallowed all the medicine in one go.

Bitter medicinal juice flowed down his throat, causing Wei Qing to feel extremely vexed.

This was a specially made medicine to treat plague. She swallowed it just like that, a person who wasn't infected by plague … It was not clear if there would be some uncontrollable situation.

The guard felt very sorry. "Princess, it's all your subordinate's fault. Your subordinate was just worried that you might be affected by the plague. "

Wei Qing felt her pulse, and found it pretty normal. She frowned. "It's not that your worries are unreasonable. Think of other ways."

She thought of the straw and told the guards to get ready.

The guard moved quickly and found the straw.

She lifted her eyebrows and took a mouthful of the medicinal juice. She stuffed the straw into the gaps between his teeth and poured a mouthful of medicinal juice into the straw.

It was the same process, although it was tormenting, Xiao Qingqian still managed to drink the entire bowl of medicinal juice.

This new recipe was a little overbearing, and very quickly, fine beads of perspiration trickled down Xiao Qingqian's forehead. While recording the symptoms of Xiao Qingqian taking the medicine, she observed her own pulse.

After getting rid of the cloth cloth, she helped Xiao Qingqian wipe his sweat, and worked until daybreak. When she touched Xiao Qingqian's forehead, she realised that the temperature had dropped, and she smiled exceptionally happily.

Considering that the condition of their bodies was not necessarily better than Xiao Qingqian's, Wei Qing reduced the amount of medicinal herbs used, progressing step by step.

On the second day, the temperature of the patients who were infected with the plague decreased due to their physical condition.

The doctors were all happy, and very quickly, Chu Yin received news that the plague could be completely cured.

He was very excited and prepared to write a report to Emperor of the South Kingdom about the situation. Chu Tiange rushed over to him, "Seventh brother, to be able to cure the plague, it's all because of Seventh Sister, you don't plan to give her anything?"

The joy on Chu Yin's face disappeared, and the questions in his head became clear once again.

"Tian Ge, don't bring up these matters in the future."

Hearing that, Chu Tiange was surprised.

That night, she found that Chu Yin was weird, and his face was extremely ugly. Hearing his words, he became even more bewildered.
