late night fire
Qiu Ju: "Your Highness!"
At the critical moment, Qiu Ju jumped to the ground and let Nangong Jingnu smash her on top.
Lying on the door panel, Qi Yan, with her eyes closed, heard the muffled sound of her fingers twitching subconsciously.
She didn't expect Nangong Jingnu to come to the fire in person in the middle of the night, and she didn't expect the other party to faint when she saw her like this...
Several palace maids carried Nangong Jingnv onto the sedan chair, and the guards also settled Qi Yan on it. The commander of the patrol battalion and the governor of Yingtian Prefecture also breathed a sigh of relief. The concubine saved at least their lives. It's saved...
Qi Yan closed her eyes tightly, enduring the burning pain from her chest, making her breathing sound like she was still in a coma, and the voices of the people came from her ears: "I didn't expect Her Royal Highness to come to put out the fire in person. It's really a woman who doesn't allow men, I am a little afraid of such a big flame as a man!"
"What do you know, His Royal Highness and the concubine are deeply affectionate and share life and death!"
"It's really auspicious to be able to save people from such a big fire!"
"Hey, it's a pity that this mansion is going to be turned into ruins."
"Shh! Be quiet, how can the affairs of the palace be discussed by the little people who are rising to the top?"
"What are you afraid of? It's better to be famous than to meet. I think Her Royal Highness is very kind~, maybe she will reward us."
…
As the sedan car drove away, the voices of the people, the blasting of the palace, and the sound of splashing water gradually faded away. Qi Yan felt that her heart was heavy. It happens that every time the other party will appear in front of him first.
Qiu Ju knelt beside Nangong Jingnu and cried in a low voice, her sad tone infected everyone, including Qi Yan.
For a moment, Qi Yan wanted to open her eyes to take a look. Is Nangong Jingnu injured? What's the matter...
Hearing from the common people that she seemed to go out to fight the fire in person, Qi Yan couldn't imagine what such a high-ranking princess would look like when she did this.
This time, even Qi Yan is not fully sure that she can escape safely, just as the masked man taught her: if you want to deceive the enemy, you must first deceive yourself.
Even though she and Qian Tong hid in the lotus pond in the courtyard, a certain distance from the fire source, the scene was once out of control.
Although the fire did not burn them, the smoke in the courtyard almost choked them. If Nangong Jingnu didn't show up and made a decisive decision to transfer all the waterwheels in the city to rush into the fire, it is unknown whether the whole body can be returned. . .
Thinking of this, Qi Yan secretly sighed: Even if you are in danger, this fire must be set like this.
How to cover up the evacuated treasury without burning the entire palace to ashes
There are countless rare treasures inside, and there are even many imperial gifts. Nangong Jingnv was very ignorant at the time, and she gave herself half of her net worth under the suspicion of arrogance. Unable to execute.
Back at the Weiming Palace, the director of the Imperial Hospital and the chief of the Imperial Hospital were already waiting there. The director of the Imperial Hospital naturally asked for Nangong Jingnu's pulse, and Ding You, the chief of the Imperial Hospital, naturally returned to Qi Yan's side. .
I have to say that Qi Yan's foresight, she even counted this level into it.
If there is no special designation by the imperial edict, the concubine can only be assigned to the chief medical officer of the imperial hospital at most.
Ding You saw Qi Yan's almost carbonized front and blood sticking to his chest, and he already understood three points in his heart. I didn't expect that she would forcefully remove the tattoo on her chest in such a way...
Previously, Qi Yan thought that she wanted to have a recipe for washing the skin, but the letters she wrote to the master were all in vain, and Ding You was also powerless.
Ding You: "Prepare clean water, clean cloth, and bring a pair of scissors!"
Maid: "Yes."
Ding You sat on the edge of the bed and secretly held Qi Yan's hand and squeezed it twice, Qi Yan gave Ding You a squeeze, the latter knew, took the scissors and cut off Qi Yan's upper body clothes, and removed two burnt ones. The wide sleeves, and the large piece of fabric left on the chest was glued to Qi Yan's chest.
Ding You took a deep breath and was shocked that Qi Yan was able to ruthlessly attack himself!
Ding You: "Come on, give me a hand..."
Nangong Jingnv: "Qi Yan!" She had lost her strength and fainted due to fright. She woke up with acupuncture and went to Qi Yan despite the objections of Qiu Ju and the imperial doctor.
Ding You and the palace maid stopped what they were doing, and leaned down and bowed: "See Your Highness."
Nangong Jingnu rushed to the bedside: "How is he?"
Ding You: "This minister has asked for the pulse of the concubine, and his life is not at risk for the time being. He is about to check the burn on his chest."
Nangong Jingnu bit her lip: "Let Ben Gong come!"
As he spoke, he rolled up the fabric on Qi Yan's chest and lifted it up...
"Hmm!" Qi Yan opened her eyes abruptly, and grabbed the quilt under her with both hands. Because she had been soaking in the water, the front of her clothes and her chest were stuck together. Nangong Jingnu's unmasking seemed to be abruptly taken from her. A layer of skin was torn off her chest, and the pain in it was beyond human tolerance.
Nangong Jingnu: "Yuanjun! How are you?!"
Nangong Jingnu slumped on the edge of the bed, raised a hand to hold Qi Yan's shoulder, her lips trembled, and her eyes were filled with tears.
Qi Yan's wound was somewhat inflamed, with a fever, and her eyes were red.
There was a thin layer of sweat on her face, her face was pale, and she panted weakly and turned her head to take a look: there was still carbon dust on the other's face that was too late to wipe off, and the ends of her hair seemed to be browned in several places. Fortunately, she was fine. At least I didn't see any trauma, and the sound was normal...
Only then did Qi Yan feel relieved, and she tried her best to pull the corner of her mouth back to Nangong Jingnu's weak smile, and whispered, "Your Highness..."
Raising his hand, he gently scraped the soot on Nangong Jingnu's face, and the dark eyebrows frowned: Why can't it be wiped off
The next moment, the hand drooped down weakly, this time it was really faint.
Nangong Jingnu was as if her soul was flying away, and she shouted sharply: "Yuanjun!"
She took the opportunity to hold Qi Yan's drooping hand on her chest, tears overflowing from her eyes: "Yuanjun, don't scare me! Royal doctor, royal doctor, please show him!"
Ding You watched the whole process from the side, he quickly cut through Qi Yan's pulse, and he was in shock: if he hadn't been in the game, he would have thought that the concubine and the princess were deeply in love with the scene just now.
Ding You was also a little nervous. Fortunately, his pulse showed that Qi Yan was still alive, so he breathed a sigh of relief and cupped his hands: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, the concubine just passed out again."
Nangong Jingnu wiped away her tears: "Do your best to save him, tell Ben Gong what medicine is needed, and he must be cured!" As she said that, she swept across Qi Yan's chest, and her tears burst again.
Ding You: "This minister is going to treat the wounds for the concubine. The night is deep. Please return to the main hall to rest."
Nangong Jingnv: "If Ben Gong doesn't leave, I will watch you here. Ben Gong... Ben Gong will stand behind to ensure that it will not disturb you."
Ding You sighed in his heart: Qi Yan, Qi Yan, the little highness of the year has grown up, and she is not the innocent girl who I will avoid for any reason... I am afraid that the road in the future will be more and more difficult to walk.
Ding You was no longer distracted, took out tools and concentrated on treating the wound on Qi Yan's chest. The area of the burn was not large, so he just removed all the tattoos on his chest, but Ding You was still very distressed: he remembered that Qi Yan had just come to Wuminggu At that time, she could not even speak a slightly complicated Weiguo dialect, but she was stubbornly stubborn. Later, she grew up at an amazing speed, even surpassing herself.
Today, she is finally close to her goal, but...
Ding You couldn't help but let out a sigh, and a nervous voice came from behind him: "What's wrong?"
Only then did Ding You remember that Nangong Jingnu was still there, so he raised his spirits and replied cautiously: "I sigh, this injury on the concubine's chest... I'm afraid it will leave scars. Of all the injuries, only the scald is the most hideous and ugly, and the concubine is dignified. , so let out a sigh, and hope that His Highness will forgive you.”
Nangong Jingnu: "As long as he can be well, it doesn't matter if he has some scars."
After dealing with Qi Yan's chest injury, Ding You opened a prescription and said, "Your Highness, the concubine's injury is temporarily under control, as long as the dressing is changed in time, during this period, be careful not to touch water, and pay attention to the cleanliness of the wound. Ventilation will slowly heal. However, because the wound has been soaked in cold water, the heat is forced into the body... In the past few days, the concubine is very likely to have a fever. The minister has prescribed a prescription, if the fever develops You can apply a damp cloth to your forehead, and then rub your palms and feet with strong alcohol. To be on the safe side, I will be vigil at the Imperial Hospital these few days, ready to be dispatched at any time, and I hope Your Highness will not worry too much."
Nangong Jingnv: "Bengong knows, it's work."
Qiu Ju went out with Ding You, took Fang Zi and went to the kitchen to make medicine in person.
Nangong Jingnu was sitting beside the bed, watching Qi Yan in a coma with a painful expression from time to time, with lingering fears.
She went to wash the cloth herself and returned to Qi Yan, gently wiping the sweat off Qi Yan's face.
Nangong Jingnu: "No matter who wants to hurt you, Ben Gong will never let him succeed. I'm sorry... This time it was Ben Gong's negligence, and there will never be another time."
Qi Yan snorted and slowly opened his eyes.
Her five senses are sharp, her heart is firm, and she forced herself to wake up even though it was very painful.
Nangong Jingnu was overjoyed: "Yuanjun?"
Qi Yan looked at Nangong Jingnu and blinked, and said weakly, "Your Highness."
Nangong Jingnu sniffed, turned her face away and wiped away her tears. She turned her head and coaxed with a smile: "It's alright, don't be afraid. The imperial doctor said that as long as you have a good life and rest for a while, you will recover."
Qi Yan took a few breaths and replied, "Don't worry, Your Highness, although the exam questions have been burned, they have already been recorded in the mind of the minister. "
Nangong Jingnu's nose was sour, and she held Qi Yan's hand against her face: "Don't talk about it now, everything is about your body."
Qi Yan shook her head: "Since I have promised His Highness, I must be the chief examiner."
Nangong Jingnu: "Yuanjun, you..."
Qi Yan: "Can I ask Your Highness to cover up the injury of this minister? It means that I have been frightened and need to rest. Before the exam starts, my minister, must..."
