King Liang woke up and rolled off the bed. His eyes were red and he seemed to be possessed by a demon. He rolled on the ground and made a howling sound. His feet were fixed and he could not move, but his hands kept waving like a mad patient.
"Get out of here, get out of here!"
The palace maid tried to help him up, but he waved her away with all his strength. His cheeks were flushed. Although he was conscious, he was very manic.
"Xin'er!" The queen rushed over quickly and leaned over to pull him, but Prince Liang pushed her hard and fell to the ground.
Nanny Yang hurriedly helped the queen up, and the empress dowager shouted to the imperial physician, "What are you still standing there for? Come over and take a look."
"Get out of here!" King Liang was like a madman, but he didn't rush towards the imperial physician. He waved his hands in the air with a look of fear in his eyes, as if there was something terrible in the air that others could not see.
Even when Murong Jie wanted to step forward, he was driven away. He lay on the ground, his legs moving backwards. He was stunned for a while. When everyone thought he had calmed down, he suddenly shouted, "Get out of here. I didn't kill you. If you want revenge, go find the person who killed you."
After seeing this, Zi'an understood most of it. After a major epileptic seizure, some people will experience mania and hallucinations, and his brain was deprived of oxygen, so he also had hallucinations.
At this time, the patient is in great danger because their pain nerves are paralyzed, and their manic movements are often rough, and they don’t even realize they are hurting themselves.
Moreover, he had injuries on his neck and legs. Although they were fixed, he could not withstand such torture.
It is necessary to quickly apply acupuncture to seal the acupoints, and then prick the acupoints to let the blood flow to calm him down.
However, now that the Queen Mother is here, she will not let him take any action at all.
However, as a doctor, she could not bear to watch King Liang fall into danger again.
She broke free from the palace guards and rushed forward quickly.
The noble concubine said angrily, "Catch her quickly."
Zi'an was already squatting beside King Liang, with his back to him, punching the air, "Back off, don't even think about hurting King Liang while I'm here."
King Liang immediately hid behind her like a young wife, and quietly poked his head out. He looked afraid but his eyes were not as frightened as before.
Everyone was stunned. It was fine if King Liang was sick and talking nonsense, but was Xia Zian also crazy? If not, could she see things that others couldn't see
Is it a ghost
This realization made everyone present look very scared. Even the Empress Dowager and the Noble Concubine were stunned. They said nothing for a while and just looked at Zi'an quietly.
After receiving the order from the noble concubine, the palace guards were also confused and didn't know whether they should step forward.
Murong Jie stopped the palace guards with one hand, looked at the expression of King Liang, waved his hand and said softly: "Retreat first."
The queen was frightened. She looked at the air in front of Zi'an and murmured, "Oh my God, it's a wronged spirit. It's a wronged spirit."
There must be a ghost. There are many wronged ghosts in this palace. These wronged ghosts must be haunting Xin'er.
Zi'an turned around, took King Liang's hand and comforted him softly, "Don't be afraid, my lord. I'm here, no one will hurt you."
King Liang looked at her in surprise and suspicion, then gently closed his eyes and frowned, as if he was wondering who she was.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes again, his eyes were red, and he grabbed Zi'an's neck with one hand. His face was extremely ferocious, and he asked viciously: "Xia Zi'an?"
In just a moment, his hand slowly slid down from Zi'an's neck. While Zi'an was pinching his neck, he had already given him acupuncture quickly.
His head tilted and rested on Zi'an's shoulder. He did not faint, but looked tired and weak.
"Help the prince up quickly!" The queen's heart, which had been hanging in her throat, finally settled down halfway, and she hurriedly ordered people to come forward.
The palace guards carried Prince Liang to the couch. After he calmed down, he looked extremely painful and his breathing was even more labored than when he was unconscious.
He put his hands against his head and knocked it weakly, one by one. As he moved, it seemed that he had more difficulty breathing.
"What are you still standing there for? Go forward and check on Prince Liang's condition." The Queen Mother said angrily to the imperial doctors.
The judge hurriedly led the imperial physician forward. The sudden change made the judge and the imperial physician a little confused, especially the ghost scene.
After checking, they couldn't find out what the problem was. Why did King Liang suddenly go crazy and be so frightened as if he had seen a ghost? At that time, his breathing was very smooth and powerful. He didn't look like he was sick and couldn't breathe as before.
In their hearts, they already felt that the King of Liang was not just sick, especially since the Queen had just mentioned inviting a magician. Thinking about the whole thing, how could the King of Liang have epilepsy? And it happened again and again.
In addition, the King of Liang now looked extremely painful, his eyes were staring straight ahead, his face was extremely pale, he was breathing with his mouth wide open, his body was rising and falling, and he really looked like he had seen a ghost.
So, one of the imperial doctors said tremblingly: "Empress Dowager, why don't you ask a magician to come and take a look."
"Nonsense!" The queen was suddenly furious, but her eyes were filled with panic in her anger.
The Queen's action caused the Queen Mother and the Royal Concubine to look at her sideways.
Murong Jie asked Zi'an, "Why is King Liang in this situation?"
The queen also stared at Zi'an eagerly, feeling a little restless and frightened. She said in a stern voice, "Don't talk nonsense. What is the condition of the Prince of Liang?"
She emphasized the word "illness", as if she was afraid to hear the words "encountering a ghost" from Zi'an's mouth.
Zi'an said, "In reply to the Queen, as I just said, Your Highness is suffering from the sequelae of an epileptic seizure. He was sleepy at first, and had headaches and abdominal pains after waking up. As for the behavior of the King of Liang just now, it was mania or hallucinations that some people may experience. In addition, the lack of oxygen in the King of Liang's brain will cause him to have hallucinations. What he saw and was afraid of just now was an illusion he saw. It was not a ghost. He only needs medical treatment, and there is no need to call a magician."
The Queen's expression gradually calmed down. "You mean, this is all caused by his illness?"
"Yes, His Royal Highness Prince Liang was already suffering from severe hypoxia, and his frantic heartbeat just now further stimulated him and aggravated his hypoxia, which led to hallucinations."
The judge said, "No, you told me before that lack of oxygen can cause breathing difficulties, but when I saw His Royal Highness Prince Liang going crazy just now, he didn't have any symptoms of breathing difficulties at all."
The judge now dared not support her anymore. The regent was no longer the one who had the final say here. The Empress Dowager had arrived, and everything had to be done according to the Empress Dowager's wishes.
Zi'an said bluntly: "This is where the danger lies. When people are manic or hallucinating, their nerves will be paralyzed, making them unable to feel pain or physical discomfort. In this process, if they are not immediately suppressed, there is a possibility of sudden death."
"How dare you!" the Queen Mother shouted, "How dare you say such treasonous words in front of me?"
Zi'an was confused for a moment. She was not very clear about this royal taboo. She knelt down hurriedly and said, "Please forgive me, Queen Dowager. I spoke out of turn."
