Just as he finished speaking, the eunuch who came to deliver the edict appeared at the door.
Li Zexuan and the rest hurriedly stood up to welcome him. Seeing that there was no way he could continue eating, he said to his father, "Father, you guys continue eating. I'll go back to Chang 'an to take a look!"
Li Jingmo said worriedly, "Little Xuan, that's cholera! Are you confident? "
He did not object to his son saving Li Tai, but he was worried that if he could not save him, he would be implicated. After all, the royal family was the most heartless!
Li Zexuan understood what his father was worried about. He smiled and said, "Father, don't worry. I still have some confidence."
Even if he did not have confidence, he should still go to Chang 'an to see Li Tai. But coincidentally, he did know an ingenious method to treat cholera.
"Little Xuan, you have to be careful!"
Madam Li said worriedly.
Li Zexuan said, "Mother, it's fine! I'll be back soon! "
After saying that, he prepared to leave with the young eunuch beside him, who was already anxious to the point of smoke coming out of his head.
Who knew, at this moment.
"Marquis Yong 'an, my master invites you to see my eldest young master, may I trouble you …"
An old man appeared outside the door. It was the Cheng Manor's Housekeeper Liang. Li Zexuan recognized him at a glance.
Housekeeper Liang was halfway through his sentence when he saw the eunuch beside Li Zexuan. He immediately shut his mouth, not knowing what to do.
Obviously, he had guessed that this eunuch was here to ask Li Zexuan to treat Li Tai's illness. How could he ask for it? Was he going to snatch the person in front of everyone? But Cheng Chumo was also bedridden. Li Zexuan was his only hope. If he did not invite Li Zexuan back, what would happen to Cheng Chumo?
"Oh, Uncle Liang, you're here!"
Li Zexuan thought for a moment and understood the purpose of Housekeeper Liang's visit. He took the initiative to welcome him and said, "How is Chou Niu? Does the imperial physician have any countermeasures? "
Head Steward Liang said with a distressed expression, "Eldest Young Master had diarrhea for an entire night and his stomach was empty, but he still couldn't resist going to the toilet. The Imperial Physician didn't allow him to eat, so Old Master asked me to invite the Marquis of Yong 'an to the manor to see if there's a way to treat my Young Master's illness!"
The little eunuch beside him immediately became anxious and stepped forward to say, "Marquis Yong 'an, His Majesty and Her Highness are waiting for you! You should quickly follow us to save King Wei! "
Housekeeper Liang pursed his lips. He wanted to say something, but at this time, he couldn't possibly ask Li Zexuan to go against the order and save Cheng Chumo, right?
That would be too selfish!
Li Zexuan didn't know if Li Tai and Cheng Chumo's situation was serious or not. It would be bad if something happened to the other when he went to save one of them! After pondering for a moment, he raised his head and said decisively, "Uncle Liang, send Chumo to King Wei's manor in a moment. I will treat the two of them together. I will explain the situation to His Majesty."
The little eunuch wanted to say something, but he was intimidated by Li Zexuan's reputation and didn't say anything in the end. As long as Li Zexuan could go to King Wei's manor as soon as possible!
Head Steward Liang said gratefully, "Thank you, Marquis Yong 'an. I will go back and tell Old Master now!"
Li Zexuan quickly added, "Oh right, I'll have to trouble Uncle Liang to inform Uncle Yuchi, the Sun Family, and the Zhangsun Family to send Yuchi Baolin, Sun Zifan, and Zhangsun Chong over!"
Saving one person was the same as saving five people. He might as well solve them all at once.
Head Steward Liang naturally agreed.
Li Zexuan followed the little eunuch on horseback to Chang 'an City.
.....
"Your Majesty, the Marquis Yong 'an is here!"
In King Wei's manor, just as Li Er and Empress Zhangsun were panicking, a guard ran over and cupped his fists.
Li Er's expression brightened. He raised his head and said hurriedly, "Let him in!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After a while, Li Zexuan walked in and bowed. "Greetings, Your Majesty! Greetings, Your Majesty! "
Li Erda waved his hand and said, "There's no need to be so courteous. Li Zexuan, I'm sure you've heard about the matter. Qing Que has contracted cholera, and the imperial physicians are all helpless. Although you don't specialize in medicine, you always have some unexpected methods to treat illnesses and save lives. We called you here today to ask if you can treat cholera?"
Before this, who would have thought that this half-grown youth would become the last hope of a country's ruler?
Li Zexuan didn't immediately agree. Instead, he said, "May I take a look at King Wei's current condition? Everything will have to wait for me to take a look! "
Li Er nodded and said, "Zhao Song, bring the Marquis Yong 'an in!"
In the past, he used to address Li Zexuan as a brat. Now that Li Zexuan had become Li Tai's last hope, Li Er's address of Li Zexuan became more formal.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Zhao Song cupped his fists in acknowledgment.
Li Zexuan followed Zhao Song to the side room to visit Li Tai.
As they approached the side room, Li Zexuan could smell the stench rolling in. He quickly held his breath. He glanced at Zhao Song from the corner of his eye and saw that the latter's chest was not rising and falling. He knew that this old man must be holding his breath like him.
Entering the side room, it was filled with imperial physicians and servants. These people had been exposed to the stench for an entire night and must have developed immunity. No one was covering their noses and mouths. Of course, there were a few familiar faces among these people — Doctor Wang and Doctor Qin from the Imperial Physician's Department who had helped Li Zexuan previously.
Li Zexuan smiled and nodded at them. Then, he looked at Li Tai, who was lying on the bed with a weak breath and had already fainted. He was immediately shocked when he saw him.
Previously, during the military training at the academy, Li Tai had grown from a fatty who weighed two hundred pounds to a normal man who weighed one hundred and twenty to thirty pounds. But now, after being sick for a day, he seemed to have become even thinner!
This cholera was really ferocious. In just one day, it could torture someone to this extent. If this were to continue for a few more days, Li Tai's life would be gone!
"Xiao Xuan, how is it? Is there any way to save him? "
Unknowingly, Li Er had walked in. He looked at Li Zexuan and asked in a low voice.
To his delight, Li Zexuan actually nodded. "Your Majesty, from the feces and vomit, we can conclude that Qingque has indeed contracted cholera. This subject has a method that may be able to cure this illness, but whether it will work or not, this subject is not one hundred percent sure!"
Even if it was not a hundred percent, it should be at least sixty to seventy percent, right?
Li Er was ecstatic. Li Zexuan said that he was not a hundred percent sure, but the imperial physicians were not even ten percent sure. It was clear who was better and who was worse!
"Good, good, good! I believe in you! Whatever you need, just let me know. There are many rare herbs in the palace storehouse. I can give them all to you as long as you can cure Qingque's illness! "
