Chapter 167: There is always a price to pay for changing one's fate
The heavy eyelids slowly opened, and what came into view was the crimson bed curtains with dark jacquard patterns, exquisite and spacious.
Turning his eyes slightly, all he saw was an intricately carved roof and a plain screen.
Where is this?
Shen Ning blinked, fatigue and numbness slowly spreading across her body, so she was still alive?
Well, she was just tired at the time, and the wrist was the worst injured.
She didn't die even though Shen Ming stabbed her several times. This injury wouldn't kill her.
Light footsteps were heard, and Lumei came in carrying a tray, with a strong smell of medicine spreading.
She put the tray away and prepared to help Shen Ning up and feed her medicine, only to see that she had opened her eyes. She was immediately surprised.
"Girl, you're finally awake."
She quickly got a pillow, gently helped Shen Ning up, and after she was done, she poured her some water.
"Are you hungry? Where do you feel uncomfortable? Do you want to call a doctor in now?"
After saying this, she slapped her head in frustration and said, "I was stupid too."
After saying that, he ran out in a hurry: "Miss Shen has woken up, please call the imperial physician and notify the young master."
Someone outside agreed, and Lumei ran out again, fiddling with something. After a while, she came back with a tray in her hand.
"Girl, don't rush to take medicine now that you've woken up. Here's the rice porridge I made today. Eat some first."
Shen Ning wasn't very hungry, he just felt very tired all over, as if he had been crushed by something.
"Prince..." As soon as she opened her mouth, her throat felt like it was being torn apart by pain. After a moment of adjustment, she continued, "Is the prince still alive?"
Lu Mei looked at her with admiration and heartache: "She's alive. The young master was afraid that you would feel pain, so he gave you medicine to let you sleep for one more day. The prince woke up earlier than you."
"The imperial physician said that the prince's heart was almost broken by that blow. Fortunately, he vomited the blood in time, otherwise it would be disastrous."
"Although the herbs you fed the prince were mixed, they were indeed effective. The young master also asked someone to prepare a medicine for you, which used a hundred-year-old ginseng. It was just enough to keep the prince alive. The most serious injury on the prince's body right now is his broken ribs, but it is not fatal. He just needs to recuperate."
She admired Shen Ning because Shen Ning had never practiced martial arts and was recovering from a serious injury, so she was very fragile. However, she still carried the prince across two hills and ensured that the prince was found in time. In order to save the prince, she used her hand to block the sword and almost broke her entire hand.
The miserable state he was in when he was rescued was so heartbreaking to see.
Shen Ning listened quietly and smiled faintly: "That's great."
Lu Mei sighed: "You, you can still laugh. You still have a lot of injuries to heal."
Shen Ning looked down at his hands and said, "There is always a price to pay for changing your fate."
The journey she took the prince on, the things she fed him, all added together, finally reversed the situation of the prince's early death. The suffering she endured in the meantime was the price of changing the prince's fate.
Just like doing business, if you want to make a profit, you must pay the capital.
Although she was very painful and regretful at the time, she persevered to the end. God gave her a glimmer of hope, and she felt it was worth it.
Lumei carefully fed Shen Ning rice porridge, and only gave her medicine after she felt better.
After eating, Zi Yan also came. She also had medicine in her hand, but it was for external use.
"It's good that the girl has woken up. If you survive a disaster, you will have good fortune in the future. Everything will go smoothly in the future."
Shen Ning smiled and said, "Thank you for your kind words."
Lumei and Zi Yan carefully opened the gauze wrapped around Shen Ning's hand. The gauze was full of black medicine, but it was not very thick, just a thin layer of mud.
Zi Yan carefully scraped off the medicinal mud with a gentle and precise technique that didn't make Shen Ning feel any pain at all.
Only after cleaning could Shen Ning's wounds be seen. The wound had closed and only a thin cut about two fingers long could be seen. However, the cuts were relatively symmetrical, with two cuts on the upper and lower sides. After all, the sword had pierced her hand at that time.
Zi Yan wiped the area around the wound with medicine, applied new medicine mud on it, and then wrapped it up layer by layer.
Not heavy, and a little cool.
Zi Yan said, "I added anesthetic to this medicine, so it won't hurt you too much. You should be careful too. Don't use this hand to pick up anything recently. You can't lift it with force. The sword injured your meridians at least in half. Even if you take the best medicine, it will take time to heal. Don't be impatient."
Lu Mei also advised: "Miss, you saved the prince this time. His Majesty, if you ask, all the good medicines in the Imperial Hospital can be used. This hand will definitely heal, but it will take some time."
They were all worried that Shen Ning would feel uncomfortable. After all, the injury was on his right hand, which made it inconvenient to do anything. It was more likely to make people impatient than other injuries.
"I see."
Why should she be in a hurry? It was just a hand, and it was much better than she had imagined.
Knowing that Shen Ning was very weak, the two men helped Shen Ning wash up and then let her lie down. It was time to rest.
The two of them looked inside and saw that Shen Ning seemed to be asleep, then they quietly closed the door and went out.
Outside the gate, four men were guarding here with weapons in their hands, each with a stern, majestic and solemn expression.
Walking outside, there is a sentry post every three meters, extending from here to the gate.
The atmosphere was grim and depressing.
Zi Yan said to Lu Mei, "You haven't slept for a whole day and night. Go and take a rest. I'll stay here."
Shen Ning woke up, and Lu Mei could breathe a sigh of relief: "Okay, I'll sleep for an hour and come back later."
Before leaving, he glanced at the door. They could guard the mansion well, but he didn't know what was going on in the palace.
----------
Lumei told Shen Ning those words actually because Qin Zhuo asked her to convey them in order to reassure Shen Ning, but in fact the prince's condition was not optimistic.
The prince's heart was injured and his broken ribs pierced into his lungs.
The person woke up, but had a high fever, inflammation, and coughing up blood. In just two days, he had no idea how many times he had been to the gates of hell.
If the prince was not in too much danger, Qin Zhuo would not have failed to stay by Shen Ning's side.
Qin Zhuo doesn't know how to treat a disease, and he can't actually help the prince by guarding him, but he also has things to do, such as finding the mastermind behind the assassination.
The assassination of the crown prince was a major event that could destabilize the country. The emperor was furious and ordered people from the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice to investigate the case together.
In just two days, all kinds of evidence were collected, and the target was directly pointed at the Sixth Prince Li Zhan.
Qin Zhuo personally led people to capture Li Zhan.
Li Zhan said that he was wronged. He did not order anyone to assassinate the prince, and those people were not arranged by him.
Concubine Han came to her crying and begged for mercy, and Duke Han also hurried to the palace, just short of digging out his heart to prove his innocence, but the evidence was irrefutable.
The dead assassin was a guard of the Han family, and it was also discovered that the Han family had private soldiers.
The emperor abolished the title of Duke Hanguo on the spot, confiscated his property and threw him into the Tianlao, stripped Concubine Han of her title and imprisoned her, and the Sixth Prince was temporarily under house arrest.
Li Zhan kept shouting that he was wronged, and it was heartbreaking, but no one believed him.
