Chapter 85 -85: Sharing a Bed Again?

Xiang Ying’s brows lifted slightly: “Xiang Qianqian?”

Xiang Qianqian’s complexion was pale, utterly devoid of color, as she looked at her in terror.

“Elder sister, I, I didn’t mean to eavesdrop on your conversation.”

Scar face scolded, “Don’t you know the rules? Without permission, you can’t just run out.”

Jie Chen raised his hand, signaling, “Lock her back up.”

Unexpectedly, Xiang Qianqian let out a piercing, tragic scream.

“No, don’t send me back! There’s something wrong with Old Princess Consort Shangguan, I can’t stay with her!”

When the rooms were assigned, Empress Dowager Shangguan, Xiang Qianqian, and the Seventh Princess were in the same cabin.

So, it seems Xiang Qianqian ran out because she sensed something was amiss.

Jie Chen exchanged a glance with Xiang Ying, and in unison, they stepped forward and headed towards the room where Empress Dowager Shangguan was staying.

After opening the door, the Seventh Princess was crouching in a corner, far away from Empress Dowager Shangguan.

“Elder sister,” the Seventh Princess saw Xiang Ying and as if seeing a savior, tearfully said, “Old Princess Consort Shangguan just had convulsions and fainted!”

Xiang Ying stepped forward and saw the unconscious Empress Dowager Shangguan, her face abnormally flushed.

One look was enough to know she was running a high fever, very much resembling the precursor symptoms of the plague.

Decisively, Xiang Ying commanded, “Someone, carry her out and lock her in the bottom of the ship.”

The Seventh Princess and Xiang Qianqian, who had both been in contact with Empress Dowager Shangguan, must be taken to the treatment room for isolation and observation.

When the soldiers grabbed Xiang Qianqian, she let out a scream like a pig being butchered.

Her cries were filled with immense terror, loud enough for everyone on the ship to hear.

“Don’t kill me, elder sister, I know I was wrong, I shouldn’t have gone against you before, I don’t want to die yet, I’m not sick, I’m not! Please, don’t burn me to death, I beg you!”

Xiang Ying couldn’t be bothered to explain to her.

Why would she burn the living? Obviously, they would only be burned if they died from the disease!

Jie Chen’s face was cold, and his thin lips parted slightly, “Gag her mouth.”

Skinny Monkey immediately stepped forward and stuffed a cloth into her mouth, and Xiang Qianqian’s cries finally stopped abruptly.

Xiang Ying had prepared several bowls of clean water according to the number of the sick prisoners.

She went down with the soldiers, ready to have the prisoners drink it.

Jie Chen couldn’t help but ask, “Is it medicine?”

“Yes,” Xiang Ying nodded.

The door to the bottom of the ship was opened, and several prisoners with milder symptoms rushed forward, kowtowing frantically to Xiang Ying and Jie Chen.

“Elder princess, we were once noble clans of Xizhou, please save us, don’t burn us to death!”

Xiang Ying’s lips were cold as she spoke, “I burn corpses, not the living. Drink the medicine, and receive treatment one by one. As long as you cooperate with me, you can all survive.”

The soldiers brought forth the bowls of medicine, and the prisoners scrambled to drink.

Liu Taipin was the most seriously ill; she couldn’t even move, slumped in a corner and too weak to lift her head.

Seeing her condition, scar face couldn’t help but approach Xiang Ying to ask, “Elder princess, may I personally feed her?”

Xiang Ying glanced at Liu Taipin and nodded, “Remember to wash your hands with my disinfectant afterward.”

Scar face readily agreed and quickly moved forward with the bowl of medicine to feed Liu Taipin.

Liu Taipin was extremely weak, raised her head to see scar face, and kept waving her hands.

“Doudou, get away quickly, don’t come back, they are all sick.”

“I am fine, the elder princess said that this disease can be cured well. Come, drink your medicine.”

Liu Taipin looked dazedly at Xiang Ying, evidently though she seemed delirious, she still could clearly identify who the elder princess was.

Xiang Ying watched as Liu Taipin finished a bowl of medicine.

Suddenly, the prisoners who had taken the medicine uncontrollably collapsed to the ground.

Besides Xiang Ying, everyone present was startled.

Liu Taipin fainted right in front of scar face.

“What’s going on!” Even the military doctor panicked.

Xiang Ying was calm, however, “It’s nothing, I added sedatives to the water, just in case they become uncooperative during the treatment and might hurt me.”

After that, she confidently ordered the soldiers to carry these sick people to the treatment room.

The remaining soldiers stayed to clean the cabins with her disinfectant water.

In the treatment room, everyone else left, and only the military doctor and Jie Chen stayed behind.

The Military Doctor stood at the doorway, not daring to come any closer.

In the small treatment room, there were twelve people afflicted with the plague!

Xiang Ying’s expression remained unchanged, Jie Chen’s brows were slightly furrowed, while the Military Doctor looked like he was about to wet himself!

Jie Chen rolled up his sleeves, revealing lean and muscular arms, with slender and attractive hands.

“What do you need to do? I’ll help you.”

Xiang Ying, however, waved her hands dismissively, “Both of you go out, guard the door for me. The treatment method I use is a traditional remedy, passed down from my ancestors, and it must not be seen by others.”

Jie Chen frowned, “Can you manage alone?”

“I can,” Xiang Ying nodded.

The Military Doctor, as if granted a pardon, quickly thanked her for her hard work and hurriedly slipped outside the door.

Xiang Ying urged Jie Chen, “You go too.”

After some thought, Jie Chen said, “I will be right outside the door. If you need anything, just call me.”

Once he left, the door gently closed.

Only then did Xiang Ying take out the vaccine and the special medicine she had prepared in her space, which needed to be injected together.

Not allowing them to be present was naturally to avoid explaining where the needles came from.

Xiang Ying donned the medical gloves found in the cabinet, and expertly and swiftly administered two injections to each person.

Next, it was time to observe for ten minutes before they could be carried back to the hold.

During this interval, Xiang Ying went back to her space to disinfect herself.

She also deftly devoured a couple of Jianbing Guozi and drank a cup of sour plum soup.

In the remaining few minutes, she turned to the computer screen to see how her two little figures were doing.

Upon looking, she made a new discovery.

The two figures, at some unknown time, had saved another person, and now the three of them were traveling together.

As Xiang Ying watched them, they stood by the water, pondering; from their gesticulations, it seemed they wanted to build a raft to cross the river.

The screen flickered with a prompt—

[Do they need an ax provided for them?]

Xiang Ying directly chose yes.

Her space had an abundance of everything, and three axes were swiftly thrown into the computer screen.

Xiang Ying slurped her plum soup, and as she saw them discover the axes falling from the sky, the screen suddenly froze.

“Is it broken?” Xiang Ying frowned and tapped the screen a couple of times.

At that moment, they fell to their knees one after another, and Xiang Ying realized that the pause wasn’t due to a malfunction; they were simply astonished!

Indeed, an ax falling from the heavens was almost like something out of a myth.

The two figures pulled the third one to their knees, and skillfully began kowtowing with a slap-slap sound.

Xiang Ying finished the last sip of her sour plum soup, her Phoenix Eyes slightly squinting with a smile, “Quite polite indeed.”

She placed the cup in the kitchen and then stepped out from her space.

The ten minutes were up, and she had the soldiers carry everyone back.

Night fell.

Xiang Ying was troubled about where to rest.

Every cabin on the ship was packed full; she only needed a place to sleep.

Just as Xiang Ying was about to settle down for the night in the treatment room, Jie Chen spoke calmly to her, “Come sleep in my cabin.”

“And you?” she asked.

Jie Chen glanced at her oddly, “I’ll sleep with you.”

Skinny Monkey immediately winked and gestured towards Scarface.

Look at that, what did he say? The Military Supervisor and the elder princess are so affectionate and sweet on each other!

Xiang Ying hesitated, “Is that appropriate?”

It wasn’t that she was being coy or embarrassed, but because she had recently been in close contact with the patients.

If Jie Chen were to fall ill, she would be down another valuable aide.

However, Jie Chen simply said, “There’s nothing inappropriate. I promised the children I would take care of you. Let’s go.”

With that, he grabbed her wrist and headed towards his own cabin.

Xiang Ying blinked her Phoenix Eyes.
