On the night of their wedding night, Su Li looked at the red-robed Princess Changle, and the joy in his heart gradually dissipated.
Princess Changle was very beautiful. As one of the female protagonists of the Tang Dynasty, no matter what the novels said, it was impossible to meet her in person.
She was dressed in red, her eyes were closed, and her face looked a little sickly and weak, perhaps because she had been in a vegetative state for a long time.
"How long has the princess been unconscious?" Su Li asked.
" Three out of twenty…" the female official answered.
Even though it was very likely that Su Li was just a prince consort buried with him, the female official was still respectful.
To be able to be a female official in the Palace, there were rules. It would not be like in novels where a dog would look down on others. Even if she did not like Su Li, she would not embarrass Su Li.
Su Li gently held Princess Chang Le's hand. The female official at the side wanted to open her mouth to remind her, but seeing that Su Li had no other unusual movements, she ultimately held back.
Su Li was only the Prince Consort for the sake of his happiness. In Princess Changle's current state, it was naturally impossible to consummate the marriage.
This was the reason why the female official accompanied the princess in the princess's manor. After all, in Princess Changle's current state, even if she was washing her body daily, she still needed someone to take care of her. The female official was here, firstly to take care of her, and secondly, to prevent Su Li, the son-in-law who was used to celebrate, from doing something crazy.
Sure enough…as Su Li held Princess Chang Le's palm, the zero points in his mind began to jump.
It took about three seconds for him to gain one point…
However, Su Li did not care about these things. Instead, he seriously examined his newly married wife, Princess Chang Le.
" I can't wake up…my breathing is stable, I can swallow…" Su Li rubbed the space between his brows.
"Can you open your eyes?" Su Li asked again.
"It will open its eyes in the day, but no matter what you say, it won't listen or move.”The female official replied.
"He can open his eyes and swallow. He has a stable rest and stable breathing. He's definitely in a vegetative state.”Su Li softly deliberated.
In ancient times, there was a lack of effective knowledge about vegetative people, so most people thought that vegetative people were suffering from amnesia.
After all, a person could open his eyes and eat, but he could not move or speak. He was like a person who had lost his soul.
From the perspective of modern medicine, this was an obvious sign of someone in a vegetative state.
There was an obvious difference between being in a vegetative state and being unconscious.
For example, unconscious people would not have an obvious routine. For example, unconscious people would not be able to swallow actively. For example, unconscious people would often have muscle spasms and obvious breathing difficulties.
It was worth mentioning that a coma was a more serious condition than a vegetative state.
A severe coma was basically not far from death.
Most people in a vegetative state fell into a coma after experiencing severe trauma. After the body's self-regulation, recovery, and treatment, the brain entered a stable state and turned into a vegetative state.
In other words, if Princess Chang Le had been unconscious for more than 20 days, with the medical technology of this era, she would have basically died.
A hint of regret flashed across Su Li's face…
In his previous life, there were two kinds of knowledge about vegetative people.
Some people believed that vegetative patients and comas were in a state of termination of consciousness, which meant that they would not have any stress response to the outside world and would completely lose their self-consciousness.
Another group of people believed that vegetative people could sense external conditions in certain environments, such as pain, temperature, sound, and so on...
Su Li was more inclined towards the second type of cognition, which was that vegetative people had a certain level of consciousness and thinking ability.
However, this was the cruelest thing for the twenty-two-year-old Princess Changle.
His consciousness sank into boundless darkness. He could not see, but he could occasionally hear, feel, and think. It was as if he had entered a cage. He couldn't move…
And the cruelest thing was that they could even feel their own excrement...
It was like a normal person who was locked in a small dark room. He could even feel that his body was covered in feces and urine, but he could do nothing. He could only sense that someone was helping him clean up, but he did not even know who it was. Was it a stranger?
A vegetable…couldn't do anything.
In his previous life, Su Li had heard that there was a person in a vegetative state. The hospital had already determined that he was brain dead…but in the end, the other party's consciousness had always remained clear.
During an experiment, the research team used the latest equipment to discover that the other party had a subjective consciousness. After processing and communicating with the special equipment, the first signal sent by the other party was…
Kill me!
In fact, the existence of subjective consciousness in a vegetative state was a very terrifying thing.
Anyone else would wish they were dead.
After going through all kinds of struggles, most people's consciousness would choose to shut themselves off and voluntarily give up on the consciousness of survival, becoming truly brain dead.
Princess Chang Le, a 22-year-old girl, was faced with such a cruel scene.
No matter how heartless Su Li was and how much he thought of others, his happiness and the points he had obtained were established after Princess Chang Le became a vegetable.
How could he still laugh so heartlessly?
Su Li knew that most vegetative people in the initial stage could sense the situation of the outside world and even hear sounds.
He wanted to speak, but he suddenly smelled an unpleasant smell.
" Young Master, please step back…" The female official very responsibly opened her mouth to dismiss Su Li.
After taking care of Princess Chang Le for so long, they naturally knew that this smell was because of Little Chang Le…
Su Li opened his mouth, but in the end, he chose to remain silent.
