There were quite a few people who were burned, and several of them were seriously injured. Ye Zhen re-checked the pulse one by one, and prescribed the medicine again. Before she knew it, it was already dark. Looking at the dark night outside, she remembered Murong Zhan has been in the palace for more than half a day, and he hasn't come to look for him yet, it seems that he is very busy.
"Ma'am..." Hou Peidong came over with a tray in his hand, "You haven't eaten all day, so eat some snacks to fill your stomach first. I've already asked people to prepare dinner."
Ye Zhen said with a smile, "I don't feel hungry."
"The pain of those patients seems to have been relieved a lot thanks to the mistress's wonderful hand," Hou Peidong said.
"I'm just doing it with a little effort, they are innocent disasters." Ye Zhen sighed in a low voice, "Master Hou, the medical workshop has worked hard for you these few years."
Hou Peidong shook his head and smiled, "Your Majesty's words are serious."
"I'm no longer a queen, it's not appropriate for you to call me your empress again." Ye Zhen laughed.
"Oh, look, I forgot again." Hou Peidong smacked his mouth lightly, "You are Princess Qin now."
Ye Zhen looked at him with a smile. She remembered that when she saw Hou Peidong for the first time, he was still a rogue and playboy, but she has become mature and steady in the past few years, "It's getting late, I should go to the city, I'll come back tomorrow. "
"Then I'll escort you back to the city." Hou Peidong said immediately.
"Don't be so troublesome, I rode out of the city by myself." Ye Zhen laughed, she was in a hurry to come to the medical workshop today, she didn't even have a carriage, so she picked a horse from Ye's house.
In Hou Peidong's memory, the image of Lu Yaoyao and Ye Zhen often overlaps, both of them are delicate young ladies, and it is hard for him to imagine that she rode out of the city by herself.
"But...it's a little unsafe now." He recalled the past when Master Ye personally taught Ye Zhen how to ride a horse. It seemed that Lu Yaoyao was also good at riding since she was a child. The one who wanted to assassinate Princess Mingyu, Lu Yaoyao was the princess's biological mother, so there was no guarantee that she would be in danger.
Ye Zhen hoped that those assassins would dare to show up to kill her, then it would be easier for her to find out who was going to hurt Mingyu.
"Master Hou, don't worry too much, I have my own way to protect myself." Ye Zhen waved her hand, signaling Hou Peidong not to worry.
"Princess..." Hou Peidong was about to persuade her to let him escort her back to the city, but saw Ye Zhen walking out.
He hurriedly chased after her, and came to the gate of the medical workshop. Ye Zhen's horse was tied to a big tree nearby. She had already mounted the horse swiftly, and turned to wave to Hou Peidong, "Master Hou, don't send it off."
After speaking, she had already rode away.
Hou Peidong was not even given time to send an escort.
Hou Peidong looked at the back that had disappeared into the night, and only heard the rattling sound of fading away. He thought to himself that she still had such a heroic side, which he hadn't noticed before.
"Lord Hou." Medical Officer He did not know when he appeared, and stood behind Hou Peidong.
"Medical Officer He, what's the matter?" Hou Peidong turned his head to see Medical Officer He, his expression became cold.
"Master Hou, aren't you going home?" Doctor He asked with a smile.
Hou Peidong said flatly, "No reply."
Doctor He frowned and said, "Master Hou, you haven't been home for a long time, Madam misses you very much..."
"Medical Officer He!" Hou Peidong emphasized, "It's inconvenient for outsiders to ask more about Benhou's family affairs. Whether or not to go home and when to go home are all up to this Marquis. I hope you recognize your duty."
"I just care about Madam. I see Madam Miss Hou Ye so much, but I can't see Hou Ye. I feel for her..." Medical Officer He's face was stiff. .
Hou Peidong showed a sneer. He and his wife, Mrs. He, used to be respectful to each other. In the past two years, Mrs. He heard rumors from somewhere, and always thought that he kept a concubine outside. A concubine's room was placed at home, but He's calmed down. He no longer cried, quarreled with him, and hanged himself. He fought with several concubines at home all day long, and he was happy to live in peace. On the contrary, this He The medical officer, relying on his relative relationship with the He family, seemed to regard himself as his elder, even if he said a few words to the medical lady, she would find excuses to make things difficult for the medical lady.
If it wasn't for He Shi's face, he would have driven the old woman away long ago.
"Medical officer He has too many things to worry about. Being a doctor in the medical workshop can still worry about the affairs of the Hou's mansion. Why don't you stop being a doctor here and go to the Hou's mansion to be a housewife." Hou Peidong said indifferently say.
Doctor He's expression changed, wouldn't that mean she was going to be turned into a slave? "Master Hou doesn't want to listen to my concerns, so I just don't say anything from now on."
"In the future, apart from treating patients and treating patients, it is best for Doctor He not to interfere with other things in the clinic. That's not your business," Hou Peidong said.
"Yes..." Medical Officer He gritted his teeth, filled with resentment in his heart. It must be Lu Yaoyao who said she was not in front of Hou Peidong, otherwise how could Master Hou treat her like this.
But what can she do? Even if Lu Yaoyao is no longer the empress, she is still a princess. How can she, a little medical officer, fight against a princess.
Hou Peidong ignored her and turned back to the medical workshop.
…
…
When Murong Zhan came out of the palace, he went directly to the dark guard. Although everyone in the dark guard knew him, he still took Murong Ke's letter.
"My lord, this way please." Shen Yi heard the news and came out to greet Mo Rongzhan in person, "We listened to Master Mingxi and asked a doctor to treat the two dead men, but there was no improvement. Still no pain."
If you don't feel pain, you still refuse to recruit.
Mo Rongzhan said softly, "Take me to have a look."
Shen Yi took Mo Rongzhan to the room where the two dead men were locked up. Although it was still a prison, it was obviously much better than the previous place.
"My lord, it's the two of them." Shen Yi pointed to the two people lying on the bed and said.
Murong Zhan walked over, the two people were tied up and unable to move, their eyes were not bright at all, if they were not breathing, they would be no different from a dead person.
"The doctor said their blood is poisonous, my lord, please don't approach them." Shen Yi said in a low voice.
"It doesn't matter." Murong Zhan said softly, he held the wrist of one of them, no matter how much the human body is trained, they will still feel it, it is impossible to really feel no pain at all, they are just numb after being trained, The tolerance to pain is stronger than normal people.
He put his hand on the forehead of one of them, injecting a bit of spiritual energy.
The man broke out in cold sweat all of a sudden, and his teeth were chattering.
Shen Yi was shocked.
"Who sent you here?" Murong Zhan asked in a deep voice.
He had just finished speaking when the man spat out a mouthful of black blood, rolled his eyes and passed out.
Mo Rongzhan's face changed slightly.
