Jiang Yubai was busy until noon, when he finally had time to take a breath. He re-bandaged Qi Changyi's palm and applied medicine to the red marks on his body one by one.
His Highness does not have a scar-prone physique. His body is white, smooth and has no scars. Even the previous whip wounds have healed well.
However, the deep bite mark on the collarbone is still bleeding, and I don’t know if it can be removed.
"If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have given him any hangover pills..." Jiang Yubai looked at Chengfeng who was standing outside the hall waiting, "Give him a poison pill, so that he can also suffer this excruciating pain."
Jiang Yubai has always had a sense of helping and protecting Qi Changyi, simply because his mother, Concubine Ning, had done him a favor when she was alive, and Qi Changyi's personality and appearance are very similar to his mother.
But he was just a small imperial physician with no power. He could only treat Qi Changyi wholeheartedly when he was injured, or curse Pei Zheng behind his back.
Chengfeng turned a deaf ear to these words. Jiang Yubai had said so many outrageous things that he was not surprised at all. Anyway, his master would let Doctor Jiang do what he wanted.
At this time, the little person lying quietly was pale and showed no signs of waking up.
The morning court should have ended by this time, but Pei Zheng still hadn't returned. Instead, someone who shouldn't be here was about to push open the door of the bedroom and come in.
Chengfeng flashed out of the room and put his hand on the golden-red door outside the bedroom. Zhao Litang, who was about to push the door open, was forced back two steps by the strong palm wind.
"You, why are you here? Is Pei Zheng in there?"
Zhao Litang saw Chengfeng's face fall and asked in a bad mood.
"General Zhao must have forgotten the instructions from the Lord last time. Now that it's broad daylight, there's no need to be shy about it, right?"
Zhao Litang secretly practiced internal energy with the hand that was leaning on the door, and resisted Chengfeng's internal energy for several rounds. Chengfeng suddenly practiced internal energy with his other hand as well, and Zhao Litang felt a sweetness in his throat.
This guard has amazing internal strength and is definitely not an ordinary person.
"General Zhao, please go back. Your Highness is not in a position to meet guests today." Cheng Feng's chest was also aching slightly, and he suppressed his pain and said.
Zhao Litang was silent for a while, then handed over the food box in his other hand, "Here are the things for Your Highness. These are the foods that Your Highness loved the most when he was a child. Jun has some important things to attend to, so I'll take my leave first."
Chengfeng closed the door of the bedroom, carried the food box into the house, and immediately a stream of blood flowed from his mouth.
Jiang Yubai was startled, and hurriedly pressed him down on a stool to forcibly feel his pulse. Finally, he ordered someone to make a tonic for him before he stopped.
After Chengfeng drank the tonic obediently, Pei Zheng finally hurried into the hall.
As soon as he arrived, he completely ignored the two people who were greeting each other in the hall and ran directly to the bed to check on the little guy. When he found that he hadn't woken up yet, his expression became even uglier.
"Why aren't you awake yet?"
Jiang Yubai stood up straight, also with a bad expression, "Oh? Shouldn't I ask you this question? What did you do to His Highness that made him fall into a coma until now?"
Pei Zheng could sense the sting in his words and just looked at him deeply. Jiang Yubai looked back at him neither humbly nor arrogantly.
When the atmosphere in the hall was eerily quiet, the little ** figure suddenly let out a soft groan, and Pei Zheng immediately and nervously grasped the pair of soft, hanging little hands.
Jiang Yubai saw this and shouted, "What are you doing! Let me go!"
Pei Zheng was so frightened that he paused and really let go of the little hand.
"Your Highness, the wound on the palm of your hand must not be torn again, otherwise it will never heal!"
Jiang Yubai was so angry that he just wanted to roll his eyes. This guy's eyes were probably just for show. Didn't he see the thick gauze wrapped around that little hand? And he was still holding it so hard!
The little guy's eyelids moved, opened slightly, and immediately closed their eyes due to the blinding sunlight.
Pei Zheng stretched out his hand to cover his eyes, and then ordered in a deep voice, "Come here, cover these windows."
The servants who received the order came in one after another and covered all the windows with heavy curtains. The hall suddenly became dark.
Pei Zheng removed his hand and spoke softly, "Okay, open your eyes, slowly."
Qi Changyi slowly opened his eyes. He was not fully conscious yet. When he saw the face enlarged in front of him, he immediately called out softly, "Brother Pei..."
Pei Zheng's heart skipped a beat. "Are you feeling better?"
Qi Changyi took a while to recover his memory of last night. He immediately showed a layer of vigilance and uneasiness in his eyes. His eyes were red. "Brother Pei, I was wrong. I know I was wrong. Don't be angry. Don't hit me..."
Pei Zheng saw him shrinking back, and felt uncomfortable. "Okay, I won't be angry, and I won't hit you. I'm not afraid anymore."
Pei Zheng saw the little hand clenched into a fist, and pried it open with a little force, "Don't hold it like that. If it forms a scar, it will tear again if you open it again."
Seeing Pei Zheng about to hug Qi Changyi into his arms, Jiang Yubai coughed at the right time, "Your Highness hasn't eaten all day, why don't you eat something first? I see there is a food box on the table, I wonder which thoughtful person sent it here."
Jiang Yubai poked Chengfeng's arm, and Chengfeng's face suddenly froze.
Oops! He forgot to throw away the food box that Zhao Litang sent him!
Pei Zheng's eyes were already looking over at him, so Chengfeng had no choice but to quickly walk over and explain in his ear.
"Humph, he has plenty of free time to spare and still has the energy to deal with these things."
Pei Zheng opened the food box and took a look. Exquisite small pastries were neatly placed inside, and the sweet aroma filled his nose. Qi Changyi's taste was indeed very childish and he preferred sweets.
"Take it out and feed it to the dog." Pei Zheng ordered coldly, "Have someone make something light and don't add any sugar."
After saying that, Pei Zheng glanced towards the bed, then stroked his sleeves and left.
Qi Changyi only saw the hem of his black robe disappear at the door frame. He sobbed silently twice and buried his little face under the quilt.
After recuperating in the palace for several days, the red marks on Qi Changyi's body finally disappeared, and the wound on the palm of his hand began to heal slowly, but the row of neat bite marks on his collarbone would never disappear.
This is like the mark left by Pei Zheng, arrogantly declaring ownership.
Li Yu had already been sent back, and Pei Zheng ordered people to use the best medicine to treat him, but Li Yu still suffered from a disease where blood would come out whenever he coughed.
No one came to the palace these days. When Qi Changyi was bored, he sat on the high threshold of his palace, playing with two dogtail grasses in his hands. Suddenly, Li Yu ran to him excitedly from somewhere, opened his palms, and there were two sweet fruits inside.
"Wow, so sweet, little jade, where did this come from?" Qi Changyi smiled and threw one into his mouth. The sweet and refreshing taste was very delicious.
"You eat one too." Qi Changyi stuffed it directly into Li Yu's mouth and looked at him with squinted eyes.
I haven't seen the little prince truly smile in all these days. Now he is finally made happier.
"I heard that the emperor is hosting a banquet in front of the palace to entertain the barbarian envoys today," Li Yu also smiled, "This was secretly given to me by the serving maid just now."
