Chapter 8 Typhoid Fever

I don't know how long it has been in the chaos, Yin Qi only felt hot all over, and couldn't bear it anymore, so he couldn't help moaning.This sound woke him up, and when he opened his eyes, there was a piece of gold star in front of him.

The feeling of dizziness finally passed, and Yin Qi realized that there were many people standing beside the bed, those he knew and those he didn't know, all staring at him with burning eyes.

After Yinqi moved a little, he felt pain in all his limbs, and his whole body was sore and weak, which was really uncomfortable.He coughed a few times before he could make a sound again, but his voice was hoarse and unpleasant.

Gao Hui at the side quickly took the teacup, poured boiling water, and helped him to feed him.Yinqi's mouth felt bitter, even the white water had a sweet taste, so he drank it in two or three sips.

He still wanted to drink, but the old man wearing the uniform of the imperial doctor's order said: "My brother just woke up, my spleen and stomach are weak, so I can't drink more water. Wait for the water I drank just now to soak my lungs, and then drink some ginseng tea."

Yinqi just gave up, and then saw Gao Hui's eyes were swollen like peaches, and deeply sunken in, he couldn't help being surprised.Looking at Wen Gu, Su Yao and others standing aside, they all looked haggard.

After looking back and forth, Yin Qi asked in surprise: "You guys...why do you look like this?"

He suddenly realized something in his heart, and hurriedly said, "How long have I been asleep?"

Gao Hui couldn't help but shed tears again, quickly wiped it off with a handkerchief, and then said with a smile: "My brother has been sleeping for more than ten days, but I have scared all the servants!"

At this time, the old doctor said: "Brother, stretch out your hand and ask the old minister to check the pulse again."

Hearing this, Yinqi stretched out his left hand outside the quilt, and asked the old doctor to diagnose his pulse.The old doctor sat on the bench beside Yinqi's bed, stretched out two fingers, and put them on Yinqi's wrist.

When they got closer, Yin Qi could see clearly this old man with a handsome appearance and a bit of a fairy spirit.He was surprised again.This person turned out to be Lin Qinchen who was ordered by the imperial physician of the imperial hospital to diagnose Kangxi's pulse!The Empress Dowager was seriously ill that day, and it was the Imperial Physician Lin who came to check her pulse a few days ago. Even though it was more than a month later, Yin Qi still remembered the old Imperial Physician.

At that moment, he almost retracted his hand, and only asked repeatedly: "Gao Hui! How dare you work for old doctor Lin!"

Before Gao Hui could answer, Lin Qinchen withdrew his hand and said, "The old minister was originally ordered by the emperor to treat elder brother, elder brother, don't be surprised."

Yinqi was only more surprised.Kangxi actually asked Lin Qinchen to treat him!What disease did he have?

Looking again, apart from Lin Qinchen, there were three or four people wearing imperial doctor's seventh-rank costumes standing beside him. He had seen a doctor before, but he really didn't meet this standard.

Then I thought of what Gao Hui said just now, he had slept for more than ten days, but he didn't notice it at all...

Quickly asked: "Old doctor, what disease do I have?"

Lin Qinchen said: "Judging by the pulse conditions these days, it is undoubtedly typhoid fever. Fortunately, elder brother is usually healthy and has a good foundation. Although he has been asleep for more than ten days, he has seen the thrills, but now that he wakes up, he is fine."

Typhoid fever...Yinqi had only heard of this disease, and it was only when he came to this world that he heard about it while listening to people's gossip, and he didn't know much about it.All he knew was that Brother Sixteen's second son died of typhoid fever, and he died within a month.At that time, the Compassionate Ning Palace was still sighing for a long time, the Empress Dowager snapped her fingers and said that quite a few princes and grandchildren suffered from typhoid fever.

Only then did Yinqi feel a little scared, he was out of breath, and suddenly coughed.Gao Hui was busy patting him on the back, and Yinqi coughed for a while before he was able to catch his breath.

After suffering from typhoid fever, it is really a fate to be able to survive... Yinqi waved his hand to tell Gao Hui not to shoot again, and then said to Lin Qinchen: "Well, if you dare to ask the old doctor, this injury is not good for the body. What's the impact?"

Scarlet fever can weaken people's immunity, and smallpox can leave people with scars all over their faces. If typhoid fever is so severe, isn't there any sequelae?

Lin Qinchen thought for a while, and said: "This typhoid fever is not an ordinary illness. It naturally hinders the body, but it is not serious. It is also my elder brother's illness. It is not a problem if it is detected early. Elder brother in the future Just pay attention to your diet and take good care of yourself.”

Then Lin Qinchen stood up, went to some tables on the side to get pen and ink, wrote down a prescription, handed it to the other imperial physicians around him for a look, and finally handed it to a person who looked like an attendant, saying: "Write down Pulse case, and go to decoct medicine for elder brother to drink."

Gao Hui winked, and Aunt Wen hurriedly followed the man out.At this moment, Yinqi felt dizzy and just wanted to close his eyes, so he said to Lin Qinchen, "Old doctor, I'm still sleepy."

Lin Qinchen said: "Brother, it's not that you're sleepy, it's because you haven't subsided your fever yet. At least drink the medicine before going to sleep."

Gao Hui on the side also said: "My brother hasn't eaten for a few days, the servants ordered them to cook porridge, brother should eat some."

Yin Qi nodded, but still closed his eyes.At this moment, he couldn't sleep, but his eyelids were heavy, and he felt very tired when he opened his eyes.

He closed his eyes, Gao Hui didn't speak any more, only heard the rustling of clothes, someone moved in the room, but there was no sound of speaking.

Just when Yin Qi was half asleep and half awake, he felt someone sitting beside him and reaching out to support his back.

Is the medicine coming?Yinqi opened his eyes, but saw Kangxi suddenly.

~~~~~~~

Kangxi was holding a bowl of pitch-black medicinal soup in his hand, and his eyes were more kind than ever.Yin Qi couldn't help thinking of his dream, and immediately hid back.

He avoided him, but Kangxi was not annoyed, and handed the medicine bowl to Xing Nian who was standing beside him, and Xing Nian came up to serve Yinqi to drink the medicine.

How can Yinqi not drink?He opened his mouth immediately, regardless of the fact that the medicinal soup was still hot, he gulped it down.

When he was drinking the medicine, his eyes were still fixed on Kangxi, and Kangxi said with a smile: "But I haven't seen Huang Ama for ten days, so Yinqi doesn't know him anymore? Why do you keep staring at me?"

Yin Qi swallowed the last sip of the soup, and hurriedly said: "Although the ten days passed in a dream, I don't think it's been a long time, but Yin Qi still misses his father."

Kangxi's face was a little relieved, but it turned into blame in an instant, and said: "You are also a solid-minded kid! Why did you kneel in the snow all night! You didn't let me tell you, you wanted to wait for you No more, let me know!?"

As he spoke, his voice was a little choked, he slowed down, and calmed his voice, and then he said: "When your sixth brother was gone, I was also... There was no news a while ago. When you come back from Mulan, your sixth Brother has been gone for three days..."

This reminds me of those children who died young.Although the proportion of Kangxi's sons who died in infancy was not high, any son was his son, so it was inevitable to be sad.

Talking about Elder Brother Eleven again: "There is also Little Eleven. Look at the lovely children, they are still gone when they are 12 years old."

Kangxi's eyes were a little cloudy, but his eyes were still clear. Looking at Yinqi at this time, the emotions in his eyes were very complicated, but there were no negative emotions that Yinqi thought he would see.

He looked at Yinqi back and forth, and said: "The youngest sons of mine are few. Eighteen and nineteen, they are all at a young age... I look at the 22th elder brother, the [-]nd elder brother , It doesn’t look like you have a long life... You are the only one. You were raised by the Queen Mother when you were young. ...What about your mother-in-law?"

Yinqi hurriedly said: "I know I was wrong... I shouldn't be self-willed, let Huang Ama worry, and make Erniang sad."

However, Kangxi sighed again, and said: "It's...it's not all your fault... Alas, Yinqi, I'm not blaming you, don't think about it. I just have to take good care of my illness. Stay with me by my side. Without you for the past few days, my heart is really empty and lonely."

After the admonition, Kangxi smiled again, watched Yinqi drink a bowl of porridge, and said a few gossips, then told Yinqi to cultivate well, so that Yinqi would not get out of bed and kowtow to see him off, and went out.

At this moment, Yinqi didn't feel sleepy at all, sat up straight, and said to Gao Hui: "Gao Hui, go find Yuhong, I have something to ask her."

Gao Hui agreed, but hesitated, but went out anyway.

After Gao Hui left for a while, Yin Qi beckoned to Su Yao who was staying in the room.

Sending Zhang Zhenchun out to look at the door, Yin Qi asked: "Su Yao, I asked you, and you answered me honestly. The emperor looked at him today, but he was very kind, and he didn't blame me. Do you know what's going on? What's going on?"

Su Yao said in a low voice: "At this joint, the servant is also guessing, and told the master, and the master just listens."

Yinqi nodded, and then he said again: "The master came back that day, and after he warmed up, he had a high fever. At first, he invited Mr. Wang Yi to come and see him. Mr. Wang Yi only said that he was frozen and asked Haosheng to take care of him. But the master did not The fever got worse and worse, and he couldn't wake up no matter how much he screamed. He couldn't help it, so he went to find Mr. Wang Yi again, but this time he was horrified, and finally said that the master had typhoid fever.

"Master has not woken up. The servants tried to feed medicine, but it was useless. The master still had a severe fever. His whole body was sweating, and the quilt was wet with sweat. Sister Gao Hui asked someone to change the bedding for the master. That's luck."

Yinqi wondered, "How do you say that?"

Su Yao's eyes turned cold, and he gritted his teeth and said, "My master doesn't know, but when little Sula unwrapped and washed the quilt, I found out that the quilt was made of black and yellow cotton, and it was sloughed off with blood and smallpox. scab!"

Yin Qi was startled, and then felt disgusted.He has slept under such a quilt for so many days!

Su Yao said again: "This matter is not a trivial matter, so we reported it to Eunuch Xing, and then sent the quilt to the imperial hospital. After the imperial doctor checked, he found that there were a lot of dirty things in the quilt! It's still Master Fu It's a big fate, that's why I only got typhoid fever!"

He spoke, his voice trembling.Yin Qi also had lingering fears, and after a while, he asked, "What are there...dirty things? Have you seen everything in our house?"

Su Yao said: "After that incident, all the things in the house were replaced with new ones. Even the master's favorite cup from the official kiln was smashed by sister Gao Hui. I was afraid The disease has spread. The other things in the quilt are easy to say, but it is dirty, only smallpox and typhoid fever are different, but they are fatal."

Yin Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "But I don't know why I'm so lucky that I didn't get smallpox."

Then he said: "Then the emperor...how did the emperor order this matter?"

Su Yao said in a low voice: "The emperor... scolded a few little Sulas who were sweeping, and pointed out two big maids beside the master, but the others didn't say anything..."

Hearing Su Yao's tone, he felt a little reconciled.Yinqi, however, had a clear mind, so he patted Su Yao Guangguang's forehead, and said: "The emperor knows about this matter, you don't need to do this. After all, I am not dead, that's why I should be thankful. The emperor is right now I'm so kind, I contradicted him earlier, and he didn't care about it, so what more can we ask for?"

Su Yao nodded, and said: "Your slave and maidservant know, master don't worry."

Yinqi asked again: "Then... the emperor didn't look happy about what happened to me that night?"

Thinking about it now, there is something wrong with kneeling in front of Dry Snow Hall.If Kangxi thought it was him acting or threatening, wouldn't he be in trouble?

Originally, Kangxi had an impression of him as a "knowledgeable pretender", but now he is preconceived. Even if he is pure and sincere, Kangxi will not believe him because of his suspicion.The night he knelt down was actually the opposite.

Su Yao naturally knew what Yin Qi was worried about, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, master, Eunuch Xing has spoken well for the master in front of the emperor. Besides, it's too late for the emperor to feel sorry for the master... Wouldn't think of it Go up the others."

Yin Qi nodded slowly, but suddenly his heart trembled, and he immediately looked at Su Yao.

Su Yao was taken aback for a moment, then lowered her head.

Yinqi looked at Su Yao, and after a while, he said: "You understand my thoughts, that's very good. We are master and servant with one heart, and I can only be happy. But you have to have a sense of proportion. Some things, yes Rarely confused."

Su Yao lowered his head, and said softly: "Your servant understands."

Yinqi said softly again: "I'm not reprimanding you, you don't have to be afraid. If you want to say who is closest to me in this palace, except for the Queen Mother, it is you. Su Yao, you have been with me since I was three years old , It’s been almost two years this year, I can’t trust you, who else can I trust? It’s just that there are some things that I’m afraid you will accidentally say, or be deceived by others.”

Su Yao only said: "Your maidservant must be careful in the future, never say too much, let alone think too much."

Only then did Yinqi nod, and sighed again: "In this palace, the difficulty is not being smart, nor being stupid. It's about being smart when you should be smart, and being confused when you should be confused..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard Zhang Zhenchun shouting outside: "I met Sister Yuhong! Why didn't Sister Yuhong sleep more? Sister Yuhong stayed up all night last night!"

Yu Hong's voice came from outside, and said with a smile: "Master is awake, I am still asleep for such a big event, what are you talking about! You monkeys, you don't know how to call me, and you dare to say that at this time , watch me come out later and beat you!"

Then the door curtain was raised, and a young girl in Tsing Yi walked in.From the looks of it, he is only a little more handsome, but his stature is tall. He looks about fifteen or sixteen years old, and he looks smart.

When Yin Qi saw her, he smiled and said, "Yu Hong, you are my key. Come here quickly, I have something to ask you."
