The wet nurse and Fanglan were both very careful people, so it could basically be ruled out that Yinghua's illness was caused by their careless care.
Lin Mengya quickly sat by the bed, held the little guy's hands, and felt his pulse.
Looking at the little guy's sallow face, Lin Mengya became suspicious. After checking Yinghua's eyelids and mouth, she asked in a low voice,
"Did he drink any water today? Did he have any diarrhea? "
The wet nurse wiped away her tears and replied,
"Today, the 10th prince drank a lot of water. Later, I was really afraid that he would be too full, so I didn't continue to give him water. He also had some diarrhea, but today, the prince always said that he was very tired, lazy, and didn't like to move. Who knew that after dinner, he would have a fever. "
Lin Mengya thought for a while, and it seemed that the problem should be with his diet.
She immediately ordered Baisu and Fanglan to prepare some light sugar water. She could only feed it to Yinghua after she tasted it herself.
The entire small courtyard was bustling with activity because of the Tenth Prince's illness. But no one expected that Lin Mengya did not use any medicine at all. Instead, she just ordered everyone to give the 10th prince some light sugar water.
Lin Mengya held Yinghua and watched him drink the sugar water little by little. She used her fingers to massage his acupoints with appropriate force.
Although the wet nurse was also anxious, Concubine Xian had said that everything should be done according to Princess Yu's words. Therefore, she could only suppress her extreme anxiety and look after the 10th prince with Princess Yu.
Fortunately, after drinking a lot of water, the little guy's physical signs gradually stabilized. Her little face gradually regained its rosy color and her delicate eyebrows were no longer tightly furrowed.
Lin Mengya felt his pulse again, and then she calmed down a little. She told everyone that the 10th prince's health was no longer in danger. Everyone also breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, it was already late at night. Lin Mengya settled the 10th prince, asked the wet nurse to take care of him, and carefully told a lot of things. Then, she returned to her main room with Baisu and Fanglan.
As soon as they entered the room, Fanglan immediately knelt down, with tears in her eyes, and asked Lin Mengya to punish her.
"You're not guilty. How can I punish you? Get up."
Lin Mengya, who was aching all over, leaned against the heated brick bed. She knew that Fanglan must have blamed herself for what had happened. Fanglan was very stubborn. Baisu went over to help her, and only then did she get up.
"Your Highness is magnanimous, this servant will remember it. But this time, the tenth prince's illness was really strange. Clearly, this servant and the wet nurse have carefully checked every aspect of the prince's diet. Why did the prince fall sick? "
Fanglan was puzzled. Lin Mengya rubbed her forehead. In fact, the cause of Yinghua's illness was very simple. It was caused by dehydration. As long as the patient was hydrated in time, there would not be any life-threatening danger.
However, the little fellow's diet had been specially prepared by someone. She had also touched the clothes with her hands, and they were all of appropriate thickness. So what was the problem?
That's right! The wet nurse had said that the little guy had drunk a lot of water today. There shouldn't be any symptoms of dehydration, right?
Thinking of this, Lin Mengya immediately asked Fanglan to bring the water that the 10th prince had drunk today to her.
Lin Mengya only took a small sip and immediately spat it out.
Baisu also took it and took a sip. They looked at each other and frowned.
"Why did you give such salty water to the 10th prince? How can the prince not get sick after drinking this kind of water? "
Baisu immediately threw the water on the table. Fanglan looked confused and also took a sip. He also took a sip, but he didn't act like Lin Mengya and Baisu. Instead, he looked at them in confusion.
"Salty? This water is sweet and refreshing. It has no taste at all. "
Fanglan didn't have to lie to them, and Lin Mengya and Baisu's sense of taste couldn't be wrong at the same time. Lin Mengya immediately understood that there might be something very strange about it.
"Why didn't the 10th prince drink the water that we usually drink? Who sent this water? "
She and Baisu ate the same as the people in the palace. Moreover, no matter how bold the people in the imperial kitchen were, they would not dare to make such a blatant fuss.
The body function of a child was different from that of an adult. If he drank such salty water, he would almost become a mummy. What a vicious idea. If she hadn't discovered it in time, who would suspect that the cause of the little prince's death was salt?
"Your Highness, these are all spring water from the mountains. They are all sent from Concubine Xian. The wet nurse and I have checked it in advance. It's impossible for there to be such a big mistake. Moreover, the wet nurse said that the 10th prince also drank this water when he was growing up. Even when the wet nurse fed the 10th prince, she also drank this water. Normally, it shouldn't be like what you said. "
Lin Mengya nodded. As parents, of course, they wanted to give the best for their children. Concubine Xian naturally wanted to give the 10th prince the best life, but she didn't expect that she would be used by someone with evil intentions.
But the problem was that why the wet nurse and Fanglan couldn't taste such salty water?
"Fanglan, open your mouth. Let me see your tongue."
As she spoke, Lin Mengya began to carefully examine Fanglan's tongue.
Sure enough, there was a small red dot at the base of her tongue. The tongue was bright red, which was different from the normal situation.
Although she had prepared herself, Fanglan was still a little nervous. She looked at Lin Mengya, for fear that she would say that she had a terminal disease.
Her eyes were a little wet, but even so, she was not afraid at all. Perhaps, in their eyes, life and death were no longer important.
"Don't be nervous. It's nothing serious. It's just that your sense of taste has been temporarily numbed. You and the wet nurse usually don't eat much, so it's not harmful to your body. "
Lin Mengya comforted Fanglan with a few words. In the final analysis, this matter was aimed at Long Yinghua. The water was sent by Concubine Xian, so the problem was the storage.
"You have to be calm at first. Just say that the 10th prince is a playful child and caught a cold. Fanglan and the wet nurse guard the room, and no one is allowed to go in to visit. Throw away all the food you eat every day, and then share some of the food you eat with the little guy. Remember, ask for something that is easy to digest. Remember, except for the two of you, no one is allowed to visit the 10th prince. No matter what she does. "
She didn't need to guess to know who it was that could do something to her courtyard.
From the doll to the 10th prince's accident, even if she thought with her toes, she knew who did it. However. What made her even more curious was that he was playing tricks right under her nose. Who on earth gave Pearl so much courage?
Or was Pearl really not afraid of death, so she did such a brainless thing?
"Yes, I will make up for my mistake by meritorious deeds. I won't let anything happen to the 10th prince."
Since they already knew what the problem was, with the ability of Fanglan and the wet nurse, they naturally would not let anything happen to the little guy.
"Go down and rest early. These days, both you and the wet nurse drink some mung bean soup and warm water. You will be fine. Give some to the 10th prince. "
Fanglan also kept it in mind. She would definitely arrange it properly.
It was already dawn. After Lin Mengya washed up, she sat by the bed and chatted with Baisu.
"In the past, I always heard my master say that the royal family is ruthless. The fights in the palace are always accompanied by the smell of blood. But I didn't expect that when I really got involved in it, I found that it was more terrible than I thought. "
Although Baisu was used to killing and cold-bloodedness since she was a child, this kind of conspiracy with needles hidden in silk still made her a little breathless.
"I'm not used to it. Compared with those in the palace, those in our mansion are just small sorcerers in front of a big sorcerer. So what if he was born in the royal family? The children in the palace are always suffering. Even when he is an adult, he will not have any real happiness. "
A handsome face gradually became clear in her mind.
Did he also grow up like this? Did he get what he had now after going through so many life-and-death disasters? The reason why she approached Yinghua and saved him from death was that Yinghua had a small face that was too similar to Long Tianyu's.
Baisu looked at her master curiously. It was rare for her to be so absent-minded.
She waved her little hand in front of her master, but her master did not respond at all.
"Pfft." Baisu laughed out loud. Lin Mengya also seemed to wake up from a dream and looked at the maid beside her.
"What are you laughing at?"
Lin Mengya looked at her maid in confusion, but she got an ambiguous look from Baisu.
"Master, tell me, what are you thinking about? Why are you so absent-minded? Could it be that he thought of another prince when he saw the Tenth Prince? "
Lin Mengya smiled and stared at her maid. It was true that one was marked by the company one kept with. The original old-fashioned maid actually learned to laugh at her.
"I didn't think of the prince. It's just that there are too many things in the palace, so I …"
Seeing her master's duplicity, Baisu couldn't help laughing more happily.
Lin Mengya was a little angry. She reached out and gently pinched Baisu's face.
She not only thought of Long Tianyu, but also Xiaoyu, who had returned to her homeland, and Qinghu, who still owed her an explanation.
From nothing, she now had so many people who could make her miss so much. Perhaps her life was destined to belong to this strange time and space.
After staying up all night, Lin Mengya spent the whole morning to catch up on sleep the next day.
She got up and went to see Yinghua. After making sure that the little guy was safe, Lin Mengya took Baisu to the Imperial Hospital.
