Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

Not sure how long had passed, but it was still dark outside.

Li Yuanzhao sat on the chair, his body swaying, and woke up.

His head was dizzy, and his neck was a little sore. He glanced at Emperor Jing and sighed.

Then, he took off the towel covering his forehead, rinsed it twice in the basin of clear water, and placed it on his forehead again.

Emperor Jing, who was in a deep sleep, was awakened by this coolness!

His eyelids opened slightly, vaguely seeing the figure of the Crown Prince, then closed weakly again.

Emperor Jing sighed in his heart.

He felt a little better, at least he could open his eyes, and the fever didn't seem so serious anymore.

He didn't expect the Crown Prince to still be guarding here... I wonder what time it is now.

The night was extremely deep, and the Imperial Study was extremely quiet; a pin could be heard dropping.

The fatigue on Li Yuanzhao's body had not yet dissipated. In the completely quiet environment, after simply tidying up Emperor Jing, he looked at his father, who was still motionless. A sense of sorrow and fear suddenly swept over him.

His Adam's apple bobbed twice, and he looked at Emperor Jing, who was still sleeping, and couldn't help but speak to him again: "Father... can you hear me?"

"If you can hear me, move a little, say a word. I'm a little scared."

...

...

...

"Father, I didn't expect you to have this day too... When you were healthy, you used to beat me often. At that time, I was thinking, when will you be old and frail? I will definitely hit you back... But when I really see you lying here, my heart aches. I guess when you get old, I won't be able to do it."

Li Yuanzhao's voice kept coming, full of exhaustion.

Hearing halfway through, Emperor Jing was so angry that he almost jumped out of bed!

He already felt that his hands and feet had regained some strength, and he suppressed his anger to hold back.

Fortunately, after hearing the second half, his heart suddenly calmed down.

This beast is still human...

"Heh heh, I still remember the year I was six years old, I sneaked out of the palace, and you had someone catch me back and beat me up."

"Also, when I was seven, you beat me because I didn't study."

"When I was eight..."

"When I was nine...."

Li Yuanzhao kept muttering, and Emperor Jing's face turned red!

What... did I hit him so often?

Almost every year since he was six years old? Why don't I have any impression at all?

This brat is so vindictive!

"When I was fifteen, you beat me up again because I yawned in front of Master Yan."

"Later, I don't know where you got that damn stick! That stick hurts so much when it hits someone. Do you know how much I wanted to give you a stick at the time, so you could taste what it's like?"

A trace of blue veins appeared on Emperor Jing's forehead.

This bastard! He actually harbors evil intentions! When I get better, I must beat you to death!

"But now those things don't matter anymore. I now know what it means to have a father-son connection. Father, as long as you wake up, you can hit me however you want, let you hit me to your heart's content..."

Suddenly, Emperor Jing felt his left hand being held tightly.

Li Yuanzhao knelt on the ground with tears streaming down his face, lay on the edge of the bed, and buried his head in the quilt.

After crying for a long time, perhaps his energy was exhausted.

Li Yuanzhao fell asleep kneeling on the ground.

Emperor Jing's chest heaved up and down, his mood quite agitated.

As an emperor who possesses the world, there is no need to say more about material satisfaction.

Perhaps what he hopes to have more is emotional satisfaction.

Having one is also pretty good...

Tonight, everything is satisfied.

Emperor Jing couldn't help but reach out and gently stroked Li Yuanzhao's head, sighed, and said softly: "You're such a grown-up, usually baring your fangs and claws, but when something happens, you act like a woman. It seems like I haven't beaten you enough."

Not long after, Emperor Jing also slowly fell asleep...

.......

The next day, the sky was bright!

Sunlight shone into the Imperial Study. As soon as Guo Tianyang entered, he saw Li Yuanzhao still kneeling on the ground and hurriedly went up and said anxiously: "Your Highness! Why are you kneeling and sleeping?"

Li Yuanzhao only felt that his knees were extremely painful and mumbled: "Last night, I seemed to dream that my father was going to beat me. Hurry, throw away the stick..."

"Ah... this?" Guo Tianyang looked at him with a confused expression.

He's confused! What nonsense is he talking about?

Helping Li Yuanzhao onto the chair, Guo Tianyang hurriedly went to test Emperor Jing's forehead temperature again.

As soon as his hand touched it, he was immediately pleasantly surprised: "Your Highness! Your Highness! His Majesty's fever has broken!!"

"Really?" Li Yuanzhao also woke up with a whoosh and hurriedly stepped forward to test it with his hand.

One touch.

"Ah! He's really better! Quick! Quick, call Wang Meng over to give Father two more injections!"

The noisy voices kept coming, and Emperor Jing slowly opened his eyes and said in a hoarse voice: "Water... bring me water!"

"He's awake! Father is awake! Quick... quick, get him water!" Li Yuanzhao was overjoyed and cried with joy!

Crying like a child over a hundred pounds.

"Cough, don't act like a woman! I've told you, a mere carbuncle is nothing to me!" Emperor Jing slowly leaned up.

"The penicillin worked! The penicillin really worked! Father, without penicillin, you would be dead now!" Li Yuanzhao shouted.

Emperor Jing's face, which was originally smiling, suddenly pulled down: "Beast! If you can't speak, then don't!"

"What penicillin? Isn't that a poison? Why don't I remember? Didn't Imperial Physician Hu diagnose my illness?"

The fever had been too severe before, and Emperor Jing had completely forgotten about it.

Guo Tianyang walked over with water, beaming with joy: "Your Majesty, it wasn't Imperial Physician Hu, it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who invited someone from Peach Blossom County to treat you with penicillin! Yesterday was really dangerous, but after one injection, your high fever subsided overnight! Penicillin is truly miraculous!"

"Your Majesty, how do you feel now?"

Emperor Jing lifted his upper garment and glanced at it: "Well, the carbuncle is still there, but I feel much better, and I'm a little hungry."

Thinking about it, he seemed to realize something and was shocked again: "Penicillin is not a poison but a real miracle drug? This incurable disease of carbuncle can actually be cured!? Quickly, bring the physician over to me!"

Before long, Wang Meng arrived again with his assistant. When he saw Emperor Jing sitting on the couch, his eyes burst out with surprise!

Imperial Physician Hu, who was closely following behind the two, immediately felt his legs weaken when he saw this scene.

It's done... this penicillin is really done?!

"Your old minister congratulates Your Majesty on your great fortune and good health!"

Wang Meng and his assistant knelt on the ground: "This commoner kowtows to Your Majesty!"

"Rise," Emperor Jing smiled and raised his hand: "Did you two save me with penicillin?"

Wang Meng's heart was now settled!

The emperor is better! Then everything will be fine.

"Reporting to Your Majesty! It was us two, but Your Majesty's illness has not yet fully recovered and still requires rest. After a few days, Your Majesty should have another injection and there shouldn't be too much of a problem."

Emperor Jing couldn't help but marvel again: "Carbuncles can really be cured? Are swords and knife wounds all applicable?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, it is indeed applicable, but there are also some problems. The effect will be exceptionally good for people like Your Majesty who have never used it before.... The more times it is used, it seems that the efficacy will be weakened, and we are not too sure," Wang Meng hesitated.

"Good! Good! Being able to cure diseases is extremely good! What is the value of this thing! Can everyone afford it?" A huge look of expectation burst out in Emperor Jing's eyes!
