Mu Yangling and Bai Li escorted Pang Kongqing to the room to take care of Qi Haoran. Seeing that Bai Li and Pang Kongqing looked tired, Mu Yangling went out to move a few benches over and put them together. She simply laid a blanket on top and said to Pang Kongqing, “Physician Pang, lie here and rest.”
Pang Kongqing really wanted to glare at Mu Yangling and reject her, but he could not withstand his sleepiness at all. He could only snort coldly in his heart and climb up with a cold expression to pull up the blanket to cover himself. In order to anger Mu Yangling, he deliberately did not take off his shoes and placed his feet under the blanket.
The blanket was half-covered by him, and he was afraid that he would not be able to use it in the future. However, Mu Yangling pretended not to see it and said to Bai Li in a low voice, “You should rest too. I’ll watch over him.”
Having protected Qi Haoran for three days, Bai Li’s body was already at its limit. Hearing this, he did not refuse and leaned against the wall to rest.
Mu Yangling propped her chin on her hand and sat by the brick bed to look at Qi Haoran.
Because he had lost too much blood, his face was still pale even after taking the medicine. Mu Yangling looked at him in a daze, and only then did she feel a little strange. Qi Haoran seemed to be only 13 years old now, but he could already affect the diplomatic relations of several countries.
Mu Yangling poked his face and sighed. Actually, it wasn’t Qi Haoran’s fault. If it were her, she would definitely have made a move, too. She heard that the Crown Prince of the Jin Kingdom had already tortured more than 40 beautiful children to death. If she didn’t meet him, she could still treat it as a legend and ignore it. However, she couldn’t ignore it if she saw it.
Qi Haoran’s actions saved more than 20 children.
In the middle of the night, Qi Haoran suddenly had a fever. Pang Kongqing had no choice but to get up and help him apply acupuncture to lower his temperature. Mu Yangling kept replacing his wet handkerchief.
In the end, the wet handkerchief had to be changed every 15 minutes. Even the military doctor could not be bothered to hide it. He changed his clothes and covered his face to help. At this moment, Pang Kongqing no longer had the spare brain capacity to think about who had suddenly appeared, let alone care about who was pacing around outside the door. He only knew that this person was extremely valued by this group of people. If he died, he would probably not be able to live either.
In the end, seeing that the handkerchief was useless, Pang Kongqing said, “Go and get fresh water from the well. It’s late at night, so the water temperature should be low.” He muttered, “If only there was ice.” He knew that this was impossible. Xingzhou Prefecture didn’t have much heat in summer, so the people didn’t have the habit of storing ice in the cellar. Even rich families rarely used ice.
However, Mu Yangling shuddered and said, “I have ice at home. It’s river ice that I preserved in winter.”
