PART 103 – HOU LEI’S SICKNESS

That night, Tian Liam still was there right beside Hou Lei. He still took care of her very carefully, continuously exchanged the cool towel on her forehead and held her hand tightly, he hoped that the one she could look at first after she woke up had to be him. He gently touched her cheek to feel if her temperature was cooler or not.

-Please, wake up, my cutie wife, you make me really worried! I don’t know how to do now. When another one got sick, you could handle and took care of them easily, but now, when you get sick, no one knows how to help you. – He rubbed her hand on his cheek.

The next day, the doctor came to Hou Lei’s room early. He knocked on the door, Tian Liam opened the door for him, he had awoken all night. He was scared that some bad things would happen to Hou Lei while he was sleeping.

-My Prince, I’m here to check the status of our Princess! – The doctor said.

-Just get in. – He led the doctor to her bed.

After checking her pulse, her forehead and some wounds on her body, the doctor stood up.

-My Prince, I can see that the wounds on Princess Hou Lei’s body have been self-healing very fast, much faster than I can imagine. However, her fever status still doesn’t decrease. I have discussed with the other doctors, they also don’t know anything about this status of our Princess. This is the first time we met a case like this.

-That means… - He wondered.

-That means we haven’t found out any way to treat the sickness of her.

-Why? Both of you are the best doctors in this country, how can you say something like this? You mean her sickness is out of your knowledge?

-That’s right, my Prince, I’m so sorry, but that’s true. We’ve never met a case like this before. The status of our Princess is very particular.

-Okay, I understand. You can leave now.

-My Prince, forgive me for saying this, but you should take care of yourself also. If you get sick, who will look after the Princess? Please be strong and positive.

The doctor said and left the room. Tian Liam sat down on the chair next to the window, his face was emotionless. More than ten doctors of the palace, but no one knew how to treat for Hou Lei. What should he do now? Should he find help from the doctors in the royal city? He could not stand to see Hou Lei laying there with high temperature and she did not talk anything to him.

That evening, Tian Liang finished his works in the government and walked to Hou Lei’s room. Tian Liang saw Tian Liam was sitting in the small garden next to Hou Lei’s room. He was drinking wine and his face was very upset. Tian Liang walked next to the table of him.

-Tian Liam, how is Hou Lei? – Tian Liang asked.

-I don’t know, I don’t know anything… - He yelled.

-Calm down, does she get better?

-I can't do anything, Second Brother… when I was sick, she knew everything to take care of me, but now, when she is laying there, I don’t know anything to help her.

-I can understand your feeling now.

-No, you don’t. You don’t know how much I love her, I wish that I could suffer this instead of her. – Tears became falling down from his eyes.

-Be strong, brother, we’ll find the way.

-How? All the doctors in this palace don’t know what happened to her. Who can?

-The world always has many mysterious things, you know. Our doctors don’t know, that doesn’t mean no one out there knows too. There must be someone can help her.

-I don’t know, how can I find someone like this now?

-I have no idea, but I can help you to find a person knowing something…

-Who? Please lead me to meet him now…

-Sorry, brother, I can’t lead you to meet him, but I can help you to ask about some information about treating for Hou Lei's sickness.

-Please, help me, I don’t know what to do now!

-Okay, I’ll go now, but you, don’t drink anymore! Be good and take care of your wife well! This time, she needs your strong mind and your love most.

Tian Liang walked back to his room to take something with him and got a horse from the horse stable. He rode the horse out of the palace to the north of the royal city. He reached to the motel of Miang Xiang, the sky was slightly dark. He walked into the motel, to the reception table.

-I want to meet Ms. Miang Xiang! – He said to the servant.

-Sorry, sir, Miss Miang Xiang is out for some works. – The servant replied.

-So, get a room for me, I’ll wait for her.

The servant led him to a room, getting some food and tea for him. He walked around in the room, he also was very worried about Hou Lei’s status. He wanted to answer Tian Liam that he loved Hou Lei much, too. However, he knew that he could not say that to his brother. Not only because Tian Liam had more time with her, he was her husband having the royal wedding and had the title in front of other people but also the border that he could not break.

After a while, Miang Xiang was back to her motel, hearing the servant said about someone wanting to meet her. She knocked on the door, Tian Liang immediately opened the door.

-Miss Miang Xiang, luckily, you’re here! – He said with a happy voice.

-What makes you come here to meet me, my Prince? – She walked into the room and not forgot to close the door carefully.

-Hou Lei gets sick, her status isn’t good now.

-Get sick? – Miang Xiang surprised. – Tell me some information about her status now.

-She gets high-tempered, but only her forehead is warm, other body parts of her are normal. She breathes normally, but she doesn’t reply to our questions or move her hands. I think she still knows the world around her, but she just can’t respond.

-Well, I also don’t know about this kind of sick. It’s hard to know if I don’t meet her directly.

-Do you know anyone who can help? It’s not suitable for you to appear in the palace these times, people will get doubts.

-I understand that. I know someone who can help! However, we also need time for finding a way to treat her sickness and prepare the medicine.

-That’s good! But please hurry up, I see that her status is becoming worse day by day. And Tian Liam, also, his emotion is not very chaotic.

-I see, anyone in his situation will act like that, moreover, someone loves his wife much like him. It’s night now, my Prince, if you are not bothered, please stay here for a night.

-Thank you, Miss Miang Xiang. I will leave early tomorrow, so I should say goodbye to you first!

-Okay, my Prince, I’ll find that one tomorrow, if nothing changes, you can meet me in the day after tomorrow, at that time, I hope the medicine is well-prepared.
