A Time-Traveling Mishap: I Became an Ancient Nobleman

Chapter 33 I bear a great responsibility

Zhou Hanzhang's eyes widened, "You..."

"What's wrong with me?" Gu Qingfeng was completely unaware, only feeling that his nose was a little itchy, so he sniffed.

No matter how hard he tried to suck, the bleeding from his nose wouldn't stop; in fact, it seemed to be flowing even more.

He inexplicably wiped his nose, then saw that his hands were covered in blood. "You... are you a jinx?"

Then her eyes rolled back and she completely fainted.

Zhou Hanzhang was shocked. Oh no, is this person dead?

What did my cousin say again?

This man is the Empress's younger brother, and his father is General Gu, who commands 100,000 troops of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

She steadied herself by holding onto the table beside her, and then slowly walked to Gu Qingfeng's side.

She first reached out and placed her hand under Gu Qingfeng's nostrils, only to find that he had no breath.

She panicked a little and immediately squatted down, placing her hand on his chest. She only breathed a sigh of relief when she felt his chest still beating.

Thankfully, I survived.

At this moment, Jiang Yichen returned with the doctor.

He looked at Zhou Hanzhang, who was squatting in front of Gu Qingfeng's bed, and asked in confusion, "What's wrong with him now?"

Zhou Hanzhang was startled and pressed down hard on Gu Qingfeng's chest with his hand.

Gu Qingfeng twitched as he was pressed down, but he still did not wake up.

Zhou Hanzhang stood up and said to Jiang Yichen and the doctor, "During the day, Senior Brother Shen gave me a bottle of medicine, saying it was to strengthen his body. I saw him groaning and thought it might be helpful, so I brought it over for him to use..."

"You gave Mo Li that health-enhancing medicine?" A strange look appeared on Jiang Yichen's face.

"But... something's wrong? He had a nosebleed after using it, and then he fainted."

"Let the doctor take a look at him first."

Jiang Yichen sighed, "His fainting has nothing to do with you; he's afraid of blood."

"He's afraid of blood?" Zhou Hanzhang couldn't believe what he was hearing.

A grown man faints at the sight of blood.

Jiang Yichen nodded with a strange expression, "Moreover, he can't take Mo Li's medicine. Every time he takes it, for some reason, he will experience some problems."

Although Zhou Hanzhang didn't particularly like Gu Qingfeng, seeing his current miserable state, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

"I bear a great deal of responsibility for his actions," she sighed.

“How can this be your fault? I know his temperament. You must have retaliated because he said something inappropriate. As for the pills, you didn’t know anything about them, so it’s not your fault at all,” Jiang Yichen comforted him.

At this point, the doctor had already started taking Gu Qingfeng's pulse. After taking his pulse, he touched Gu Qingfeng's waist and said, "Since he is lying like this, I can't determine the extent of his waist injury. You two come over and help support him. Take off his shirt so I can examine him."

Zhou Hanzhang had never taken off a man's clothes before, and upon hearing the doctor's instructions, his face immediately turned bright red.

Jiang Yichen noticed this scene and said, "Why is your face so red? Did you also use Mo Li's medicine? His medicine can make Qingfeng have a nosebleed, so it should mainly be used to replenish qi and blood."

Zhou Hanzhang shook his head. "I didn't eat. It's probably because of the hot weather. I've always been particularly afraid of the heat. It'll be fine in a bit."

After saying that, she followed Jiang Yichen to Gu Qingfeng's side. She helped Gu Qingfeng up, and Jiang Yichen took off his clothes.

When Zhou Hanzhang saw Gu Qingfeng's upper body again, her face turned even redder. But as she continued to look down, she saw that Gu Qingfeng's injured waist was swollen.

The doctor reached out and felt around Gu Qingfeng's waist before saying, "No bones are broken, just a muscle strain. Apply some medicine and don't move around. It will be fine in a few days."

"And what about his nosebleed?" Zhou Hanzhang asked.

"The nosebleed should be caused by the medicine you just mentioned, which is to replenish qi and blood. He is a young man with vigorous blood and qi, and he should not take medicine to replenish qi and blood. His body could not handle it, so he had to have a nosebleed."

"It's nothing serious. I'll prescribe some medicine to clear heat and remove blood stasis; he should be fine after a couple of doses."

After instructing them to help Gu Qingfeng put on his clothes, the doctor wrote two prescriptions for them. "This one is for external use. Fresh herbs should be crushed and applied to the waist. The other one is for internal use. Just buy the herbs from the pharmacy and decoct them."

Jiang Yichen took the document and nodded, looking at Gu Qingfeng who was still unconscious on the bed. "When will he wake up?"

"There's no rush. Let him sleep if he can; it'll do him good," the doctor said.

The two then turned and went out. At the door, Jiang Yichen held the prescription and said, "You go and rest first. I'll go get the medicine for him."

Zhou Hanzhang looked at the prescription in his hand. "Some of these herbs require fresh medicinal materials. Do you know where I can find them?"

"I know a medicine shop that specializes in selling fresh medicinal herbs. The herbs there aren't anything special, so I think I should be able to get them."

Zhou Hanzhang nodded. "Then I'll trouble you."

"Why say such things? We're in the same dormitory, so we should help each other out. Besides, I'm not helping you right now."

Jiang Yichen took the two prescriptions and then saw the doctor out.

Zhou Hanzhang went back to his room to tidy up and then went to sleep. After falling asleep, he never heard Gu Qingfeng's wails again and slept soundly through the night.

She got up on time before 5 a.m. the next day.

According to the schedule provided by Li Xianda, all students need to assemble at the school's training ground at 5:00 AM sharp.

She quickly washed up and quietly prepared to leave.

Before leaving, I noticed that everyone's rooms were open except for Chen Moran's and Gu Qingfeng's, whose rooms were all closed. I wondered where they had gone.

Shen Moli should not have returned yet, and she had no idea when Chen Moran returned. As for Jiang Yichen, she didn't know where he had gone so early.

She walked to Gu Qingfeng's room and saw that the door was not completely closed, but only slightly ajar, presumably because Jiang Yichen wanted to make it easier for him to hear Gu Qingfeng's voice.

She tiptoed into Gu Qingfeng's room and noticed a faint medicinal scent; it seemed Jiang Yichen had already applied the medicine for him.

Seeing that Gu Qingfeng was still asleep, she didn't linger and left his room.

Just as she stepped out and closed the door again, a soft voice came from behind her, "What are you doing in Qingfeng's room?"

Zhou Hanzhang jumped in fright at the sudden sound, and whispered, "Senior Brother Chen! Why do you walk so quietly?"

"You were too engrossed in your own thoughts. I've been here for quite a while."

Zhou Hanzhang rolled his eyes discreetly while it was still dark.

"Are you rolling your eyes at me?" Chen Moran suddenly asked.

Zhou Hanzhang: ...

What kind of eyesight does this person have? How can they see her rolling her eyes in this dark?

Impressive.

"I wasn't rolling my eyes at my senior brother, I was rolling them at the person inside," Zhou Hanzhang quickly said.

Chen Moran was somewhat puzzled, "Why did you roll your eyes at him?"
