PFC Chapter 440 Sudden Fever
Chapter 440 Sudden Fever
When Doctor Chen came out of the Ni Feng Tower, he was stopped by someone when he reached a corner outside the palace.
"Dr. Chen, this is something your master gave you. You should know what to do, right?"
Looking at the package in his hand, a look of panic flashed in Chen Jinmu's eyes.
"No need, the medicine has already taken effect!"
"Nonsense! The master clearly instructed that it must be taken for seven consecutive days to take effect. You've only taken three days. How could it possibly have taken effect already?"
The man with a crescent-shaped mark on his face held a knife to him.
"Tell me, do you regret it?"
"I, this old man, am not lying. When I was bandaging his wound just now, I noticed that the blood flowing from it had a faint bluish tinge. I was worried about being discovered, so I deliberately kept it a secret..."
Hearing him say that, the man finally let go of him.
"Is this true?"
“Of course! You know I wouldn’t dare hide it from you…”
His family members were still in their hands. Even if he didn't want to live, he couldn't let his family be implicated.
"You old scoundrel, you better not be lying to me. If you dare to deceive me, you'd better watch out for your family's lives!"
After making another threat, the man hurriedly left.
Watching the departing man in black, Chen Jinmu wiped his sweat.
He was right; the leader's poison had indeed entered his body.
"If it weren't for that severe injury today, things probably wouldn't have happened so quickly," Chen Jinmu sighed.
Between his family and the leader, he chose his relatives.
midnight.
Wu Weiwei, who was fast asleep with Qingzhu in her arms, suddenly felt that the man next to her had an unusually high body temperature.
"Qingzhu, wake up!"
"Ugh, Weiwei, I'm so thirsty, could you get me a glass of water?"
Qingzhu felt as if his head was being pricked by thorns, and his body felt extremely uncomfortable.
Wu Weiwei got up and poured him a glass of water.
"Here, drink this water first, I'll go and call the doctor!"
Unexpectedly, Qingzhu reached out and stopped her.
"Let the maid go! I want you to stay with me..."
Seeing Qingzhu acting like a child, Wu Weiwei smiled slightly, "Alright, whatever you say!"
Outside the city, Chen Jinmu, who had just fallen asleep fully clothed, was woken up from his bed by someone.
"Doctor Chen, the monarch has ordered you to come to the palace for an audience immediately!"
Hearing the voices of the guards outside, Chen Jinmu shuddered in fear.
"It's here! This moment is finally here!"
He hurriedly put on his clothes, slung his medicine box over his shoulder, and walked toward Chen Dazhuang.
"Lingfu, go to the icehouse and get some ice. I feel that Qingzhu's fever this time is unusual!"
"Yes, girl!"
After Lingfu left, Wanqiu came over.
I initially thought that the fever was just a common occurrence caused by an infection from yesterday's wound, but I never expected it to get so severe.
I've tried several methods to reduce the fever, and I've changed the wet compresses several times, but there's been no sign of it going down at all.
"Miss, how about I have my younger brother invite Young Master Xiao over? Perhaps he can bring down Steward Qing's fever?"
Upon hearing Wanqiu's words, Wu Weiwei realized that Xiao Qingyu was still in Qingwu Kingdom.
"Alright, have Dazhuang invite him over!"
Xiao Qingyu is skilled in medicine; perhaps he has a solution.
soon.
Chen Jinmu followed Ku Li here.
"This humble servant greets Your Majesty."
"No gift!"
Wu Weiwei glanced at him and noticed that he seemed to have something inexplicable about him compared to during the day.
"Dr. Chen, please go in and examine Chief Qing!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After watching the person go inside, Wu Weiwei frowned.
After a cup of tea, Chen Jinmu came out.
"Your Majesty, I have already given the chief medicine, but because he is delirious, I dare not use too much. If we want the fever to completely subside, I'm afraid it won't be so quick."
Why don't you go back and rest first, and I'll stay here and keep watch...?
Wu Weiwei frowned as she listened to Chen Jinmu's words.
"I understand. It's good that the fever has gone down. As for rest, that's unnecessary. I'll stay here tonight!"
After speaking, Wu Weiwei looked at Ku Li.
"Guard Ku, please bring a stool for Doctor Chen!"
Qingzhu took the knife for her, and now that her fever is high, how can she rest with peace of mind?
A moment later, Xiao Qingyu rushed over.
"Weiwei, you were looking for me?"
Xiao Qingyu was out on business today and was not present. He only heard about Qingzhu's assassination when he returned at night.
Looking at the gentle and refined man before her.
Wu Weiwei's brows and eyes finally relaxed.
"Senior Brother Xiao, I believe General Chen has already told you about yesterday's events. Qingzhu currently has a persistent high fever, so I would appreciate it if you could check his pulse..."
Upon seeing the person in front of him, Dr. Chen's eyebrows and eyes suddenly twitched.
"Your Majesty, I have just given the chief some fever-reducing medicine. I believe his fever will subside in less than half an hour. I'm afraid the chief's illness doesn't require Young Master Xiao's help, does it?"
Xiao Qingyu was originally a member of the Dongzhe tribe. It is said that he is not only skilled in using poison, but also proficient in medicine.
If he were to treat the leader, then...
Looking at the person speaking in front of him, Xiao Qingyu's handsome face turned towards Wu Weiwei.
"Who is this?"
"I am Chen Jinshui, an old man."
Originally a physician of the Suzhen tribe, I became the official physician of the Qingwu Alliance after Chief Qing conquered the Suzhen tribe!
Hearing his words, Xiao Qingyu frowned.
It was him.
He had heard of Chen Jinshui; his medical skills were average, but of course, compared to the local doctors who used to work here, he was still quite capable.
But it is said that he once caused someone's death while treating a patient, and the problem was only resolved when his wife hired thugs to threaten him at his home.
Judging from his nervous appearance, there must be some hidden story here.
Xiao Qingyu stepped forward.
"Dr. Chen, right?"
Since Weiwei sent someone to invite me here, I naturally have to take the pulse of Chief Qing.
It's just taking your pulse, look at you, you're acting like I'm going to steal your job, is it really that serious?"
Xiao Qingyu looked at him and said in a half-joking tone.
Hearing Xiao Qingyu's words, Wu Weiwei looked at Chen Jinshui and saw an unnatural look flash across his face.
"Hehe, what are you saying, Young Master Xiao? I was just praising your medical skills!"
With you treating the leader, this old man is actually more at ease!
Fearing that others might notice something, Chen Jinshui could only force a smile and say so.
"In that case, I'll show it to Chief Qing right now!"
After Xiao Qingyu went inside, Wu Weiwei stared directly at the anxious Chen Jinshui.
"Kuli, you stay here with Doctor Chen, I'll be right back!"
Wu Weiwei deliberately emphasized the word "accompany".
He believed that Kuli could tell.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured! I will stay with Doctor Chen!"
From their conversation, Kuli could tell that something was wrong.
Military Advisor Xiao is never wrong in judging people; this Chen Jinshui definitely has a problem!
Inside the room, Wu Weiwei stood quietly to the side watching Xiao Qingyu take Qingzhu's pulse.
"That's strange. The fever has gone down a bit, but why is his pulse so unusual?"
Upon hearing Xiao Qingyu's words, Wu Weiwei's expression suddenly turned cold.
"Senior brother, could it be that Chen Jinshui really has a problem?"
