Chapter 138 The Prince's Assistance
On this day, Yunxi got up at dawn, packed up quickly, and prepared to go to the free clinic.
She was dressed simply today, but she looked refreshing.
The prince, dressed in simple casual clothes, also strode out with big strides.
"Madam, I will go with you today." The prince said in a loud voice.
Yunxi was slightly startled when she heard this, with a hint of surprise in her eyes. Then she raised the corner of her mouth and smiled: "That would be great."
The two men were followed by several maids and servants, and they came to the temple for free medical treatment in a mighty procession.
Before I got there, I saw a large crowd of people gathered in front of the temple.
The prince stood aside, folded his hands over his chest, and watched Yunxi treating the people without blinking.
At this time, an old man came, holding his stomach with one hand, unable to straighten his back, and his face was pale.
Yunxi hurried over and asked in a soft voice, frowning after asking.
"This is gastrointestinal discomfort and needs to be treated properly." Yunxi said as he was about to write a prescription.
Seeing this, the prince took a few steps forward, with a gentle smile on his face, and said to the old man: "Don't worry, old man, Madam Yunxi is here, and she will definitely make you recover."
The old man looked at the prince, his eyes full of awe: "Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, Madam."
At this time, a child was crying and refusing to let Yunxi feel his pulse. His little face was wrinkled up, and his two little hands kept waving, shouting, "I don't want it, I don't want it!"
Yunxi was feeling a little helpless, her brows slightly furrowed, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Seeing this, the prince squatted down without saying a word, with a gentle smile on his face, and said softly: "Little guy, be obedient and let Madam take a look at you. You can go out and play after you recover from your illness."
The sound was as gentle as a spring breeze blowing through willow branches. The child blinked tears and stared at the prince for a while. Perhaps moved by the prince's friendliness, she finally stopped crying.
Yunxi looked at the prince with gratitude, her eyes revealing endless gratitude, and then continued to treat the child.
Her movements were gentle and skillful. She touched the child's wrist and asked about the child's symptoms in a soft voice.
At noon, the sun grew increasingly scorching. A peasant woman came to the temple carrying a basket of vegetables. Her clothes were soaked with sweat, clinging to her body, and her hair was wet and clung to her cheeks.
The peasant woman gasped and said, "Madam, I have been feeling dizzy these past few days."
Yunxi hurriedly asked her to sit down. Just as she was about to check, the prince swiftly handed her a bowl of water and said, "Sister-in-law, drink some water first and take a rest."
The peasant woman took the water with both hands, gulped down a few big gulps, put down the bowl, and thanked him repeatedly, her face full of gratitude.
After taking the peasant woman's pulse, Yunxi said seriously, "Sister-in-law, you're overworked. You need to rest more."
The prince continued, "I will have someone send you some supplements."
When the peasant woman heard this, her eyes widened and she almost knelt down in excitement, her voice trembling: "Your Highness and Madam have been so kind and generous, I have no way to repay you."
The prince quickly reached out to support the peasant woman and said, "Sister-in-law, this is what we should do. Please stop doing this."
In the afternoon, a wounded craftsman came in. His arm was hit by a stone and bleeding profusely. The wound looked very scary.
The craftsman grimaced in pain, his face pale. Without a word, Yunxi quickly took out gauze and herbs from the medicine box and hurriedly treated his wound.
The prince was also unwavering. He rolled up his sleeves, helped hold the craftsman's shoulders, and comforted him, "Hold on, it will be fine soon."
On that day, there was a constant stream of people coming for the free clinic. A young man walked in, clutching his stomach, looking very painful.
Yunxi inquired carefully, took his pulse, and said, "You must have eaten something bad. I'll prescribe you a prescription."
The prince watched from the side, lending a hand and handing things over from time to time.
There was another old lady whose eyesight was not very clear. Yunxi patiently examined her while the prince comforted her softly, "Auntie, don't worry."
As the sun gradually set, the number of people attending the free clinic finally dwindled. Yunxi and the prince were exhausted, their backs aching, but their faces were filled with relief.
At this time, a little girl ran over and said timidly, "Madam, Your Highness, my father's leg injury has not healed. Can you come to my house to see him?"
Yunxi and the prince looked at each other, nodded, and followed the little girl.
When I arrived at the girl's house, I saw a middle-aged man lying on the bed with a wound on his leg that had festered.
Yunxi frowned and immediately began to clean the wound, while the prince helped and ran around.
Throughout the day, Prince Wang and Yunxi helped many people, and their good deeds became a legend among the people.
Yunxi hurriedly treated his wounds, and the prince
The craftsman gritted his teeth, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead. His face turned pale with pain, his lips trembled, and he kept moaning "Ouch, ouch".
Yunxi hurriedly speeded up the movement of her hands to treat the wound, looking focused and anxious.
The prince was also unwavering. He held the craftsman's shoulders tightly and kept comforting him, "Brother, bear with it, it will be fine soon!"
After treating the wound, the craftsman recovered and said in a trembling voice, "Thank you, Your Majesty. If this wound of mine hadn't healed, my whole family would have starved."
As he spoke, he wiped the sweat from his face with his calloused hands.
The prince looked at him with a firm gaze and said, "Take good care of yourself, and things will get better."
By this time, the sun was setting, and the sky was ablaze with orange. The free clinic was coming to an end, and Yunxi and the prince packed up their things and prepared to return home.
On the way, Yunxi turned her head slightly to look at the prince and said softly, "Your Majesty, you have worked hard today."
There was still some weariness on her face, but her eyes were full of gratitude towards the prince.
The prince smiled and waved his hand: "It's not hard for me to help my wife."
As he was talking, he suddenly heard a commotion. It turned out that two vendors were arguing over a stall.
The two men were red in the face and refused to give in to each other. A crowd of people gathered around to watch the fun.
The prince and Yunxi looked at each other and hurried forward.
The prince frowned and said loudly: "Don't argue, talk it over nicely."
A vendor said anxiously, "Your Majesty, he has taken over my stall."
He waved his arms as he spoke, his face full of indignation.
The other vendor was not to be outdone and argued at the top of his voice, "I was here first."
The prince looked around, thought for a moment, and said, "This place is spacious. You should each make some space and spread your stalls apart so that everyone can do business."
The two vendors were stunned for a moment, then nodded. One said, "We'll listen to the prince."
The other one followed suit and said, "Your Highness is right." The two stopped arguing and thanked the prince.
The prince and Yunxi continued to walk towards the Marquis' Mansion. Yunxi's steps were a little heavy, so the prince slowed down his pace to accompany her.
After returning to the Marquis' Mansion, Yunxi was so tired that she sat down on a chair, patted her waist and breathed a long sigh of relief.
Upon seeing this, the prince quickly poured a glass of water and handed it over, saying, "Madam, I will come to assist you more often in the future."
Yunxi took the water cup, took a sip, and said with a smile: "With the prince's help, it will be twice as easy to get twice the result with half the effort."
In the next few days, the prince accompanied Yunxi to the free medical consultation every day.
On this day, a ragged beggar came. His hair was as messy as dead grass, and his face was covered with black and gray patches, making it impossible to see his original appearance. The rags on his body swayed as he walked, emitting a unpleasant odor.
When everyone saw this, they hurriedly covered their mouths and noses and retreated as if they had seen the plague god.
Yunxi did not show any disgust. She walked forward quickly, squatted down, gently held the beggar's hand, her eyes full of concern.
She carefully examined the wounds on the beggar's body, her brows slightly furrowed.
The prince saw this and quickly handed over medicine and water. Yunxi took it and gently treated the beggar's wound, saying, "Hold on, it will be fine in a while."
The beggar was so moved that tears welled up in his cloudy eyes. He said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty and Madam are truly kind-hearted people."
After saying this, he was about to kowtow to Yunxi and the prince. Yunxi quickly stopped him and said, "No, no, this is what we should do."
Just as I finished my work here, another pregnant woman came in. She was very pregnant and had difficulty moving.
The prince was quick to move a chair and carefully helped the pregnant woman sit down, while also reminding her: "Slow down, slow down."
The pregnant woman was very grateful and said with a blushing face, "Thank you, Your Highness."
One day, a scholar with a worried look on his face arrived. His brows furrowed, his expression anxious. He approached Yunxi and said in a low voice, "Madam, I've been suffering from insomnia these past few days and haven't been able to concentrate on my studies."
Just as Yunxi was about to speak, the prince said, "Don't worry. I've also been troubled by this. Adjusting your mindset is the most important thing."
As he spoke, the prince patted the scholar on the shoulder and said, "You, don't put too much pressure on yourself."
Yunxi also agreed: "Yes, go out more often on weekdays and relax."
Under the guidance of Prince and Yunxi, the scholar's mood gradually improved, a smile appeared on his face, and he bowed repeatedly: "Thank you, Prince and Madam, for your guidance."
As he was speaking, an old farmer limped over, humming.
Yunxi hurriedly asked, "Old man, what happened to you?" The old farmer said with a bitter face, "I twisted my ankle while working."
Without saying anything, the prince squatted down to check the old farmer's injuries, then turned to Yunxi and said, "Give me some blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing medicine."
Yunxi quickly did as he was told.
At this time, a few more children ran over and surrounded Yunxi and the prince, chattering.
A little girl said timidly: "Sister, my stomach hurts."
Yunxi touched her head and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, sister will take a look at you."
In this way, the prince and Yunxi helped more and more people together.
Their good deeds spread to every corner of the capital.
