my awesome king

Chapter 12

"Doctor Ning, can you tell me in detail about the treatment process at that time?"

"Back to the princess, when the minister arrived, the prince was already fainted. The minister immediately sealed several acupoints with needles, and carefully removed the branch inserted into the prince's calf, but a small part of the branch accidentally broke inside the calf, and the minister spent a long time. In addition, the wound was infected and suppurated, bleeding continued, the whole calf was bruised, and the small bone in the ankle was broken. The branch was taken out, and after applying the medicine, I bandaged it with gauze, and then fixed it with a straight board. I want to heal the broken bones in a few months, so that the prince can walk again, who knows..." Thinking of the scene at that time, Doctor Ning only felt horrified.

Mu Shuiqing took a closer look at the wound. Although it was grim, the part that was pierced at the beginning had grown tender new flesh intact.She touched his ankle lightly, thinking: the fall must have broken the leg bone and scratched the meridians, but under the treatment of the imperial doctor, and after five years, the leg bone should have been reconnected , but why Ji Xiaomo still can't walk?
The skin below the knees is white to transparent, and there is still purple congestion around the scars. These are all symptoms of Qi and blood obstruction.Mu Shuiqing pressed a few places lightly, and found that Ji Xiaomo frowned slightly, and she asked in a low voice: "My lord, if it hurts, just tell me, so that I can know exactly where your injury is..."

Seeing Mu Shuiqing frowned in embarrassment, Ji Xiaomo said softly: "Princess, if there is no other way, forget it..."

"No! You can't give up!" Mu Shuiqing said excitedly, "My lord, I guess you can't walk because of your weak body and lack of energy and blood. I have a way to clear the blood on your legs! In time, my lord will be able to walk." Walking like flying again! My lord, trust me!"

Mu Shuiqing is not a doctor, but she has worked as a nurse, and is better at taking care of patients and performing rehabilitation treatments for patients.When she was a nurse, Mu Shuiqing often soaked the feet of patients with traditional Chinese medicine. Rheumatism, spleen and stomach problems, insomnia, headaches, colds, paraplegia, traumatic brain injury, stroke, kidney disease, diabetes, etc. were nothing to worry about, like Ji Xiaomo Patients who have not fully recovered from such a serious illness need this rehabilitation treatment most.

Back then, an old lady suffered from arthritis, and her knee joints were so painful that she could not move in bed. She used hot water to soak her feet with traditional Chinese medicine, massaged the acupoints to unblock the Qi and blood, and relieved her pain.Unexpectedly, after persisting for half a year, the grandmother's arthritis, which was so severe that it was a headache, healed without any medicine, and she was discharged from the hospital not long after.

Ji Xiaomo trembled his eyelashes, thought for a long time, and said, "Do you really want me to go back to the past?"

"Hope!" Mu Shuiqing nodded vigorously, "Not only do I hope that the prince can recover, I also hope that the prince can survive!"

Ji Xiaomo took a breath, and met Mu Shuiqing's gaze.Her shining eyes stared at him non-stop, and under the clear sunlight, they shone with a luster that he couldn't bear to look at directly, shattering his doubts and wavering one by one.

Avoiding her gaze, he murmured softly, "Then... let's try..."

Why his legs can't walk, Ji Xiaomo knows better than anyone else.But at this moment, he couldn't bear to break her seriousness and enthusiasm.Of course, he kept persuading himself that this was just a temptation.Mu Shuiqing wanted to know his physical condition so actively, probably because of that person's orders.

After all, his imperial brother was worried about him. Even if he broke his leg five years ago, even if he was about to die, he would still send a pawn by his side to keep an eye on his every move...

When Ji Xiaomo was in a daze, Mu Shuiqing happily ordered someone to bring the wooden basin, and after measuring the water temperature with his own hands, he scattered some medicinal powder in the wooden basin for the maid to prepare.

Seeing Ji Xiaomo looking at him eagerly, with a confused look on his face.Mu Shuiqing said with a smile: "The ancients said: 'Washing feet with traditional Chinese medicine is better than taking tonics.' If the prince insists on soaking his feet for a stick of incense every day, he will be able to exert its true effect." The ancient wooden basin is pure natural, No pollution, no radiation, no static electricity, strong thermal insulation, and easy to clean!

No matter what the reason is for Ji Xiaomo's inability to walk normally, traditional Chinese medicine foot bath is always beneficial!A dead horse is a living horse doctor, and a little bit of cure is a little bit!
After Mu Shuiqing took off Ji Xiaomo's left boot and socks, he lifted the trousers up to his knees, and then carefully put Ji Xiaomo's feet into hot water, soaking some hot water with a towel. water, wipe gently.The originally pale skin was instantly dyed a beautiful pink.The skin is delicate, smooth and elastic, and Mu Shuiqing sneaked a hand enviously.

Mu Shuiqing saw that Ji Xiaomo's body was stiff, and she hid back in conflict with her feet. She couldn't help asking, "My lord, is the water too hot?"

Ji Xiaomo shook his head, his blushing cheeks looming in his lightly drooping black hair: "The princess has worked hard, let Qingzhu come."

When someone takes over, Mu Shuiqing is naturally happy, not to mention that Qingzhu, as Ji Xiaomo's personal maid, must be more gentle and considerate than her.It was too tiring to squat like this, Mu Shuiqing stood up and stretched his waist, then pulled Doctor Ning aside and communicated in a low voice.

Immerse your feet in hot water, the slightly hot temperature stimulates Ji Xiaomo's skin, stimulates the meridian qi to unblock the blood, and the medicine powder penetrates along it, and spreads the medicine powder around the body through the blood circulation and meridians, so as to achieve healing disease and disease prevention.

What Mu Shuiqing discussed with Imperial Physician Ning was the efficacy of several ancient medicine powders, because she didn't know the difference between the modern and ancient names of medicines.

The medicinal powder that is scattered this time is for headaches.Mu Shuiqing discovered that Ji Xiaomo liked rubbing his temples very much, which meant that he often had migraines, which are difficult to cure with medicine, and headaches often lead to swelling and pain in temples, insomnia at night, and restlessness.Although it was a minor illness, it was a fatal blow to Ji Xiaomo's already weak body.

After soaking half a stick of incense, Ji Xiaomo's expression became more and more relaxed. He closed his eyes and fell into a light sleep. His hands that were habitually rubbing his temples were gently lowered and placed on the armrest, presenting a peaceful and tranquil posture.This is because the blood vessels in both feet dilate and blood flows from the head to the feet, which can relatively reduce cerebral congestion and relieve headaches.

Mu Shuiqing motioned for Qingzhu to step back, reached out and lightly touched Ji Xiaomo's right foot, wanting to massage his foot.Unexpectedly, Ji Xiaomo, who was in a light sleep, suddenly opened his eyes, and his right foot shrank reflexively, splashing a splash of water, which wet Mu Shuiqing's clothes.The white satin was attached to the skin and became extremely transparent, revealing the smooth skin faintly.

At that moment, Mu Shui clearly saw a frightening cold light suddenly flashed in his normally gentle black eyes.

Those black eyes instantly turned back to the gentle jade they used to be, and even looked at Mu Shuiqing in a daze: "Princess, you..."

Mu Shuiqing blinked, wondering if he was blinded by the water just now, so he misread it.

She said: "My lord, foot massage is good for your body."

Ji Xiaomo murmured: "Let Qingzhu come."

"But Qingzhu doesn't know which acupoint to press. The acupoints on the soles of the feet are like the big acupoints on the human body, so you can't rub it casually. So, let me do it."

Seeing that Mu Shuiqing insisted on doing it himself, Ji Xiaomo nodded helplessly.A pair of soft jade hands gently caressed the soles of his feet, with slight itchiness and slight pain.The scorching temperature eroded the soles of his feet along the fingertips, making him restless.

Mu Shuiqing kneaded and pressed a few times, seeing that Ji Xiaomo's body was not so stiff, he gradually increased his strength.During the period, she also asked Ji Xiaomo how he felt from time to time.If he feels itchy, she pushes harder.If he feels pain, she will lighten up.

Mu Shuiqing's considerate movements made Ji Xiaomo a little dazed, her warm eyes quietly staring at her side face, when she was massaging his feet, she was so tired that she was out of breath but didn't stop to rest, she was covered in sweat There were two bright blushes on his face.Her dark hair stuck to her cheeks wetly, covering her expression at the moment.

Ji Xiaomo reached out his hand out of nowhere and brushed her wet blue hair behind her ears, and wiped away her sweat with his sleeve.Then he glanced at her white clothes that were wet and tightly pressed against her body, exposing her curves, and said lightly: "The clothes are wet, go and change."

"I'll change it later."

Seeing that she didn't raise her head, and ignored his words, Ji Xiaomo frowned: "I'm going to catch a cold."

"If I go to change clothes, the water will be cold soon." Mu Shuiqing said, took a breath, and smiled, "My lord, you can rest at ease and leave me alone. I am strong and not easy to get sick .”

Ji Xiaomo didn't believe it.According to the news obtained by the spies, Mu Shuiqing accidentally fell into the water before, and was obviously seriously ill in bed for a whole month.Where is she strong? !

But seeing Mu Shuiqing's stubbornness, Ji Xiaomo no longer pretended to be sentimental, he lowered his eyes, closed his eyes and rested under Mu Shuiqing's moderate kneading movements.

After half a stick of incense, Mu Shuiqing wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said to Ji Xiaomo, "My lord, the water is getting cold, let's stop here today." She raised her eyes and saw Ji Xiaomo's head crooked. Leaning on the back of the chair, Weifen's lips were slightly parted, exhaling a steady and long breath.

actually fell asleep...

After Mu Shuiqing was stunned, he took a clean towel from Qingzhu's hand, carefully wiped off the water stains on Ji Xiaomo's legs, and smoothed his rolled-up underwear.Then he worked with Qingzhu to help him onto the bed.Mu Shuiqing undressed him, leaving only his close-fitting underwear, then softly covered him with a quilt, and left lightly.

She was sweating profusely now, and she really wanted to take a shower.

"My lord, my lord?" Qing Zhuyuan thought that Ji Xiaomo was pretending to be asleep, but after calling a few times, Ji Xiaomo turned over, retracted into the bed, and continued to fall asleep.

Qingzhu has never seen the prince showing his sleeping face in front of others, let alone at this time, with Mu Shuiqing's careful support, the prince fell into a deep sleep without knowing it.For five full years, no, maybe longer, the prince has not slept so peacefully for a long time.He always fell into a light sleep, trembling all night, and woke up immediately when there was a sign of trouble.

Throughout the night, Ji Xiaomo unexpectedly had no dreams, and slept until noon.When he got up, he was refreshed, and his whole body was filled with inexplicable vitality.

Seeing Qingzhu enter the room, Ji Xiaomo lowered his eyes, glanced at the empty bed, and asked, "Where is the princess?"

"The concubine went to the teahouse in the south of the city, and she said she has something important to do. Because the concubine has the prince's jade pendant, even without the prince's order, she can go out of the mansion without hindrance." Seeing Ji Xiaomo frowned, Qingzhu added, "Prince Don't worry, Mo Hua is following you."

Ji Xiaomo breathed a sigh of relief, frowned and asked, "Last night, why did I suddenly fall asleep, and slept until noon. Did she drug the tub last night?" He was a little annoyed rubbing his temples.

"My maidservant has ordered someone to check it. They are all medicine powders for body repairing, especially for headaches. They are all excellent medicines for the body."

Ji Xiaomo was silent.His face was cold, and his black jade-like pupils were like a deep pool shrouded in cold smoke, revealing a faint color of confusion.

Mu Shuiqing walked happily on the street, thinking in her heart: Ji Xiaomo's four shops all have great room for improvement.And Ji Xiaomo's shop is her shop, and the money she makes is also her money, so she naturally wants to maximize the profit as much as she can.And her first stop today is the teahouse.

The tea house is located in the most prosperous area in the south of the city - the south gate of the city. It can be called "at the foot of the emperor". The essence of the capital lies here. During the day, the crowds are bustling, and at night, the lights are brilliant, and the business must be booming.The guests come to drink tea, chat, and listen to storytelling with friends. They sit for a whole day, and the tea money is rolling in.At that time, she only needs to sit back and enjoy the power of a fisherman, and count the money until her hands cramp.

The more Mu Shuiqing thought about it, the more joyful he was, after passing by rows of shops, teahouses, theaters, and stalls, he came to the place that shopkeeper Yan said.Then, glancing happily at the teahouse, Mu Shuiqing's eyes popped out.The paint on the plaque is peeling off in front of you, and there is no customer in the room. Is the teahouse where the waiters are sleeping on the table really under the name of the prince?

In such a bustling area, there are so many people coming and going, and it is the season when people are prone to hot and dry mouths in summer, but no one steps into it...

"I want a pot of your specialty tea."

The waiter in the store didn't know that Mu Shuiqing was the princess, and when she saw her enter the store, he raised his head lazily and said, "This store doesn't have special tea."

Mu Shuiqing frowned, and his voice became cold: "Then order a pot of tea with the most people."

Xiao Er put the teapot on the table with a "bang" and said with a sigh, "Ten Wen."

Seeing that Xiaoer took the money and left, Mu Shuiqing smiled and said, "Will you pour water for me?"

Xiao Er rolled his eyes: "Aren't you free? I'm busy."

"I'm the only guest now." She held back her anger.

Reluctantly, Xiao Er ran to pour water, pouring while gasping, the tea splashed profusely on the table, and even a few drops splashed on the back of Mu Shuiqing's hand.

Mu Shuiqing couldn't bear it anymore, he slapped the table again and said angrily: "Let Shopkeeper Yan come over here!"
