Cold entering the body?
Soon, Imperial Physician Gao arrived.
Imperial Physician Gao was very young, no more than thirty years old. He looked very steady, but despite his young age, he was born in a medical family. Since young, he had been influenced by what he saw and heard and learned good 'kung fu'. He was proficient in all kinds of difficult and complicated illnesses.
Of course, compared to Mo Ruo, he was slightly inferior.
He came in with a medicine box and knelt down to kowtow.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
Qi Zhen Emperor said, "Imperial Physician Gao, We called you here to take a look at Concubine Xiao's illness. Why is there no improvement after taking medicine for so long? "
"Yes."
Imperial Physician Gao got up and carefully walked to Concubine Xiao's side.
"Your Ladyship, please allow this minister to take her pulse."
Concubine Xiao coughed as she reached out.
He picked out a thin silk handkerchief and covered her wrist.
Take her pulse!
After a while, his fingers left and the handkerchief was taken away.
Qi Zhen Emperor asked, "How is it? Is it a serious illness? "
Imperial Physician Gao retreated a few steps and bowed, "Replying Your Majesty, Your Ladyship's body is weak. The cold has entered her body and she may be in a state of panic, causing her meridians to be not smooth. That's why she is weak and coughing non-stop. It's not a serious illness. Your Majesty and Your Ladyship need not worry."
"Then why is there no improvement after taking medicine for so long? Is the medicine you prescribed not working? "
"Can this minister take a look at the medicine Your Ladyship drank?"
He suspected that there was something wrong with the medicine!
Qi Zhen Emperor nodded and ordered someone to bring over the leftover dregs of the medicine.
Imperial Physician Gao took a sniff and pinched the dregs of the medicine on his fingers.
This medicine …
Qi Zhen Emperor asked, "How is it? Is there a problem with the medicine? "
Would there be a problem with the medicine?
Concubine Xiao was a little nervous.
After all, she had been drinking medicine for so long and yet there was no improvement. It was really strange.
Imperial Physician Gao put down the medicine bottle in his hand and replied, "Your Majesty, this medicine is indeed a nourishing and cold medicine. There's no problem."
"Then what's the reason? Why is this illness not getting better? "
"Although Your Ladyship's illness is not a serious illness, it will take a hundred days to heal. Not to mention that the cold has entered the body. A few years of recuperation will be needed. Your Ladyship should rest more and drink some tonic ginseng soup. Don't overwork yourself. You will gradually recover."
That's good!
Qi Zhen Emperor was relieved.
"Alright, give me some more medicine."
"Yes!"
Imperial Physician Gao received the order and returned to the Imperial Hospital.
After he left.
Concubine Xiao said, "Your Majesty, this concubine has already said that it's not a serious illness. The imperial physician also said that it's a cold. You don't have to worry."
"Then rest well and don't tire yourself out."
"I understand."
Qizhen Emperor ordered someone to fetch a large heater and placed it by her side to keep her warm. He then accompanied her for a while and instructed the palace eunuchs and palace maids to take good care of her before leaving in peace.
Concubine Xiao lay on the bed. Although she was sick and weak, she still smiled proudly.
In the end, she was still in the emperor's heart.
Not long after, the concubines in the palace all knew that the emperor had gone to see her, and they all brought tonics to Zhangzhi Hall to present their treasures.
The door sill was almost flattened.
After a while, the room was filled with all kinds of medicinal herbs.
Tianshan Snow Lotus.
Ganoderma.
Human God.
Blood Bodhi.
…
However, after Concubine Xiao took a look, she snorted and ordered, "Throw all these things away and burn them."
Ah?
Those were all top-notch and precious medicinal herbs. Any one of them was a great tonic and very expensive. Any one of them could feed a poor commoner for a lifetime.
Just throw them away and burn them?
What a pity!
However, the eunuchs and maids didn't dare to make a sound and could only do as she said.
They moved those things out.
Concubine Xiao's phoenix eyes hooked. "Those people all want ben gong to die of illness so that they can take over this consort's position. Previously, when His Majesty didn't come to see me, they thought that His Majesty had alienated this consort. Now that His Majesty is here, they all come to give me tonics. How laughable."
Sang Lan, who was beside her, added, "Your Ladyship will definitely have a flood of good fortune and great fortune."
"This consort's life can't be taken away by the King of Hell."
Ruthless!
She still had to wait for the day her son ascended the throne and the day she became the Empress Dowager!
How could she be willing to die?
…
Imperial Physician Gao returned to the Imperial Hospital with a heavy heart.
He was writing down a prescription for Concubine Xiao but stopped halfway and didn't continue for a long time.
"Imperial Physician Gao, what's wrong?" A young eunuch who was fetching the medicine saw him and came over to ask.
He didn't speak.
It seemed like he was lost in thought!
"Imperial Physician Gao …"
That person called out several times.
Imperial Physician Gao returned to his senses and looked at him, saying, "It's nothing."
"Didn't you go to treat Concubine Xiao? Why are you like this as soon as you come back? Did something happen to Her Ladyship … "
His voice was very soft.
Imperial Physician Gao immediately glared at him, "Don't make wild guesses. Her Ladyship's body isn't in a serious condition. If your words were heard by others, you would be beheaded."
"Yes, yes, yes." The young eunuch slapped his mouth a few times, "Thanks to Imperial Physician Gao's reminder, this servant's mouth is stupid. “
I'll write down this prescription. Get the medicine according to it and quickly send it to Zhangzhi Hall. " “
"Yes." “
Imperial Physician Gao quickly wrote down the prescription and handed it to the young eunuch to get the medicine!
But —
He had something on his mind and kept frowning. He sat on the chair for a long time before hurrying to find Imperial Physician Chang.
At this moment, Imperial Physician Chang was looking for medical books in the Imperial Hospital's library.
Just as he found one and was about to read —
"Imperial Physician Chang."
Hearing the voice, he saw Imperial Physician Gao rushing in.
"Suwen?"
Imperial Physician Gao's original name was Gao Suwen.
He walked over and said, "Imperial Physician Chang, I have something to discuss with you."
He went straight to the point.
Imperial Physician Chang closed the book in his hand and sat upright, looking very serious, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Just now … I went to take Concubine Xiao's pulse."
"Did Concubine Xiao tell you to go?"
"It was the Emperor."
Eh!
Imperial Physician Chang was startled, his wrinkled face twisting together.
He asked, "Then … what did you say?"
Yes, Imperial Physician Chang didn't ask for the diagnosis, but how he said it.
He instantly understood and sighed, "I don't dare to say more, since I can't be sure, but from the pulse, Her Ladyship indeed has a cold in her body. But it's been so long and the medicine has been prescribed, it's impossible for it not to get better, so …"
"You suspect that there are other symptoms?"
"Yes, but … it's just a suspicion."
Imperial Physician Chang narrowed his eyes and was silent for a long time, "Actually … Imperial Physician Liu and I have privately discussed that Concubine Xiao's illness isn't as simple as a cold, but after taking her pulse several times, there were no results, so it's not good to say it directly. You have to know, although we are officials and imperial physicians of the palace, to put it bluntly, we are no different from those eunuchs. We all serve our masters, so there are some things that can be said, and some things … cannot be said."
"Then … what should we do now?"
