My Highness Hears My Thoughts, And Still Plays Along
Chapter 301 - 292: I’ll Do It
CHAPTER 301: CHAPTER 292: I’LL DO IT
Yun Ran said she would faint, and sure enough, she did, scaring Nangong Mo badly!
Recalling that she had just mentioned her anemia and now excessive blood loss, his heart sank uncontrollably.
"Lin Wanyue, you mustn’t have anything happen to you!"
Nangong Mo swiftly lifted Yun Ran into his arms, and urgently spoke to the empty space behind him, "Feng Xuan! Go quickly and get Elder Mo!"
"Yes!"
Feng Xuan, hidden in the shadows, responded immediately and left.
Wrapped in Nangong Mo’s cloak, Yun Ran was carefully cradled in his arms. His Qinggong was executed to the extreme, yet his hands were incredibly gentle, fearing he might aggravate her wound or expose her to the cold wind.
Nangong Mo entered the Prince Qin Mansion through the back gate and over the wall, and when he arrived at the sleeping chamber, Feng Xuan and Elder Mo had yet to arrive.
With utmost care and gentleness, he placed Yun Ran on the bed, his eyes on the unconscious girl’s pale face, his heart aching and burning with anxiety.
"Go see if they’ve arrived yet."
"Yes, Prince!"
While waiting for Elder Mo, Nangong Mo untied Yun Ran’s clothing to check the wound on her shoulder.
Today, she wore a fiery red dress like flames, despite it being stained with blood, it wasn’t very noticeable.
But now, the sword wound and the congealed blood around it looked particularly striking against the girl’s pale skin, like blood-red plum blossoms in the snow, stinging Nangong Mo’s heart.
Yue Ying had already brought the mansion’s medicine chest and warm water, setting out cotton towels, gauze, and hemostatic medicine.
"Prince, Elder Mo hasn’t arrived yet, shall I clean the Princess’s wound first?"
Implicitly meaning, please step aside and not block my way!
Nangong Mo, however, turned his head without pause and took the wet cotton towel from her hand.
"I’ll do it."
Yue Ying cast a glance at her master, who exuded a chilling aura of murder, and quietly brought over the water basin. She replaced the towels with clean ones and handed over the necessary medicine and gauze.
Despite the daunting aura surrounding him, his hand movements were incredibly tender and cautious, as though fearing he might hurt her.
Yue Ying watched it all, pondering deeply.
The master is truly concerned and worried for the Princess! Who injured the Princess? Was it remnants of the assassins from before? Truly damned!
After Nangong Mo simply wrapped Yun Ran’s wound, Feng Xuan hurriedly arrived with Elder Mo on his back.
"Prince, Elder Mo is here!"
When Elder Mo was put down, he became so dizzy that he couldn’t find the direction, spinning in two circles before locating Nangong Mo, "Your humble servant..."
Nangong Mo raised his hand and directly interrupted Elder Mo’s salutation, "Quickly, come take a look at her!"
Without a word, Elder Mo quickly stepped forward, first examining Yun Ran’s complexion, then lifting her eyelids lightly for a check, followed by taking her pulse.
From the pulse, is nothing wrong?
Elder Mo frowned, remembering how Feng Xuan had arrived in an emergency, uttering ’come with me now’ before dragging him out with his medicine chest.
Finding Feng Xuan’s pace unsatisfactory, he carried Elder Mo all the way.
Through rooftops and walls, fast and with jumps—the journey made Elder Mo’s old bones feel like they were about to crumble!
Such urgency can’t just be for a minor external injury, can it?
Feeling puzzled, Elder Mo checked Yun Ran’s other hand, carefully taking her pulse again.
Nangong Mo watched Elder Mo’s serious contemplation, his heart sinking, "Elder Mo, how is it? Is it severe?"
"This..."
Elder Mo stroked his white beard, frowning, explaining the result of his pulse diagnosis, "From the pulse, the Princess seems just to have minor external injuries, nothing severe."
"Then why is she unconscious and not waking?"
"This..."
Equally puzzled, Elder Mo saw her pulse as stable, without any signs of poisoning or severe injury or illness.
Reflecting for a moment, Elder Mo frowned, "In my years of practice, I have seen many people born highly sensitive to pain. What ordinary people feel as one-part pain, they might experience as twelve parts."
Implying she perhaps fainted from the pain!
Upon hearing this, Nangong Mo’s expression shifted dramatically, imagining Yun Ran’s true pain being tens of times more than it appeared, his heart feeling as though it were crushed by a giant hand.
"Is there a way to alleviate her pain?"
Surprised by the hoarseness in Nangong Mo’s voice, Elder Mo glanced at him. It wasn’t this severe just moments ago! He must also check his pulse later!
The poison’s effect time is near, who knows when Mu will return.
"I’ll prepare a prescription, brewing it will alleviate the local pain. However, for those born with this constitution, changing it is nearly impossible, one can only make slight adjustments."
Seeing Nangong Mo’s expression change, Elder Mo hurried to comfort him, "The Princess’s unconsciousness may not be due to this reason, she might not belong to this constitution, so Prince, please remain calm."
Nangong Mo recalled Yun Ran’s last words before fainting, his expression turning grim once again, "Does the Princess suffer from anemia? Is the condition severe? How to treat it?"
Elder Mo looked at Nangong Mo, thinking: This is not some mysterious condition, and many women, more or less, experience some deficiency in qi and blood.
Yet your expression conveys: This condition is extremely severe! Urgent!
"Worry not, Prince! The Princess indeed suffered severe bodily deficiency before, lacking in qi and blood. But after months of careful recuperation, she is much improved."
"Though still weaker than ordinary people, it’s nothing serious anymore, just need consistent care, paying attention to diet, routine, mood, complying with nature and seasonal rhythms, she will be well without worry for life."
Listening, Nangong Mo suddenly recalled how Yun Ran loved sneaking out on dark nights to indulge in ’deception and theft’, often staying up all night!
Immediately resolving in his mind, if she misbehaves again, he will knock her out directly. (Yun Ran: Let me say thank you...)
After making out the prescription, Elder Mo handed it to Yue Ying, then approached Nangong Mo, "Prince, would you allow me to check your pulse?"
Nangong Mo’s gaze never left Yun Ran, he decisively refused Elder Mo.
"I am fine. Everything will wait until the Princess awakens."
"..."
Elder Mo frowned at him: You’re fine! You’re fine! Do you even know your own condition?
If you could spare half the concern for yourself, you wouldn’t claim you’re fine.
"Thank you, Elder Mo, Feng Xuan, escort Elder Mo home."
Elder Mo: "..." I’m not tired! I’m not going home!
"Yes, Prince!"
Feng Xuan immediately appeared before Elder Mo, looking at him with a polite, muscular smile,
"Elder Mo, shall I carry you?"
