Chapter 26 Asking for help late at night

Compared with the bright lights in Mingyuan, the lights in Jinyuan were turned off early to rest.

Su Xiaoliu thought deeply, and then knocked on the door of Jinyuan.

The guard heard the sound, got up, put on a coat, and came out holding a lantern.

With the dim candlelight, he vaguely recognized the person next door, "Mr. Su Xiaoliu, is there anything wrong with knocking on the door so late?"

Su Xiaoliu swallowed his saliva and said anxiously: "Mr. Rong is here. "I...I have something urgent to do with him."

Senior members of aristocratic families have rules and regulations. Although Su Xiaoliu was anxious to seek help, he also knew that with his current status, it would be difficult for him to be like Rong Zheng. He was the one who spoke, so his voice was slightly nervous and stuttering.

The person who opened the door saw that he looked nervous and hurriedly invited him in, "What happened, my young master has gone to bed now. If it is urgent, I will pass the news on my behalf."

Su Xiaoliu said with an anxious expression: "My young master has gone to bed during the day. I went to swim in the lake and got soaked by the water. Now I feel feverish all over my body and the fever won’t go away. I can’t find a doctor. I would like to ask Mr. Rong if there is any way to hire a doctor for my young master."

Su Xiaoliu spoke urgently . He told the whole story quickly, but in a clear and logical manner.

As soon as the person who opened the door heard that the situation was urgent, he hurriedly welcomed Su Xiaoliu into the flower hall where the guests were waiting, and then said: "Don't worry, just wait for me here for a while, and I will report it to my young master."

After that, the man said Then he left the flower hall and walked quickly towards the inner courtyard.

The inner courtyard was silent, and he didn't have time to consider etiquette issues, so he directly explained the matter to the person watching the night.

Upon hearing this, the night watchman quickly walked into the inner room and reported: "Master, Mr. Su Xiaoliu, the personal servant next door, is here to ask for help."

Although Rong Zheng had fallen asleep, he heard someone announcing the news and squinted his eyes to ask. He said: "What's the matter?"

The man said calmly: "The young master of his family is feeling feverish and wants us to find a doctor for them."

When Rong Zheng heard this, he woke up and said, "Su Mingjue is sick.

" The man lowered his eyes and bent down and said, "This is what the boy reported."

Rong Zheng lifted the quilt and immediately ordered: "Quickly, call Mr. Li to come for a consultation, and send a few more maids and boys over. "

The man heard the words and replied: "Yes."

After Rong Zheng finished his instructions, he had already put on his coat and said, "Hold the lamp, I will go next door to take a look."

After that, the man had already walked out of the bedroom. When passing the flower hall, he motioned for Su Xiaoliu to follow, and they walked side by side.

As Rong Zheng walked, he looked at Su Xiaoliu and said, "When did your young master get the fever?"

Su Xiaoliu wanted to hurry up and walk to Mingyuan, but he also knew that he had already sought help from others at this moment and was in no hurry.

He suppressed the anxiety in his heart and responded: "It's about midnight."

Rong Zheng glanced at the water clock next to him and saw that it was already Chou hour.

If the wind and cold are not treated promptly, it can easily cause a high fever that will not go away. .

Rong Zheng also speeded up his pace slightly at this moment. Fortunately, the two courtyards were not far apart, and he arrived at Mingyuan in a short time.

When Su Xiaoliu entered, Langzhong Li had already put his hand on Su Mingjue's wrist and was taking his pulse.

After a while, the doctor withdrew his hand and wrote a prescription on the side.

Rong Zheng stepped forward and asked Li Langzhong: "How is it?"

Li Langzhong also got up from the bed in a hurry. He was still sleepy and yawned several times, and then he said: "Cold and dampness enter the body, and evil spirits rise. , so I have a fever. After drinking a few doses of medicine, the fever will subside quickly."

Rong Zheng took the prescription and looked at it carefully, then nodded to the doctor, "Thank you, doctor Li."

The person waiting on the side said: "Tingfang will send Doctor Li to me for me."

After the doctor left, Rong Zheng handed the prescription to another person beside him, "Follow this prescription and go to Miaoshan Hall to get the medicine." Then

. The man took the prescription, bowed and said, "Yes." and then left.

After Rong Zheng finished doing this, he walked into the inner room.

Several servants of Su Mingjue were surrounding the room, twisting their handkerchiefs to wipe Su Mingjue's sweat.

Su Xiaoliu saw Rong Zheng coming over, nodded slightly and then asked: "Master Rong, how is my young master's condition?"

Rong Zheng responded with a gentle face, "Don't worry, the doctor said it was just wind and heat entering the body, I have already I ordered someone to get some medicine. Once you boil the medicine and take it, you will be able to get better after sweating."

After hearing this, Su Xiaoliu's heart finally dropped.

Seeing Rong Zheng still standing there, he stood up and was about to see off the guests. Unexpectedly, Rong Zheng took a step forward and leaned over the bed.

His usually bright and fair face was now flushed, and his forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat due to the fever. Even if Su Xiaoliu wiped it clean from time to time, the sweat beads on his forehead still appeared quickly.

"Give me the veil." Seeing that Su Mingjue was sweating heavily, Rong Zheng stretched out his hand and said to Su Xiaoliu.

Su Xiaoliu was a little surprised when he heard this, and stayed where he was for a moment.

Seeing that he didn't move, Rong Zheng repeated, "Give me the handkerchief."

Su Xiaoliu finally came to his senses, and he slowly handed the wrung handkerchief to Rong Zheng.

Rong Zheng took it and carefully wiped it along the other person's forehead and lower neck. When he saw that the sweat beads were gone, he handed the handkerchief back to Su Xiaoliu.

Su Xiaoliu wet the handkerchief into the copper basin, scrubbed it a few times, and then wring it dry.

Rong Zheng opened his hand to him as before. Su Xiaoliu hesitated now. He held the handkerchief in his hand and said politely: "Master Rong, I'll do it! How can I let you serve the young master?" "

Rong Zheng glanced at him and said calmly: "It doesn't matter, I can observe his heat."

Su Xiaoliu said with some confusion: "Observe the heat."

Rong Zheng explained patiently, "He is out now. He was sweating so much, but his body temperature was still very high. It could be seen that it was not only caused by the evil wind, but also caused by physical discomfort and exerting force to fight against the evil wind. I pressed several ventilation acupoints on his body. A few strokes will help him sleep better."

Su Xiaoliu handed over the wrung handkerchief, "Then Mr. Lao Rong."

Rong Zheng took it without responding and turned to lift Su Mingjue's handkerchief. Back, wipe some sweaty areas on his body.

The moment the snow-white lining was uncovered, what caught Rong Zheng's eyes was a piece of crystal-white skin, which was as delicate and transparent as a fine piece of mutton-fat jade.

His eyes dimmed slightly for a moment, then returned to normal.

After the two of them twisted each other's handkerchiefs and wiped their bodies for several rounds, Su Mingjue really slept better.

The body became calmer and no longer rolled from side to side like before.
