Chapter 200 Send it to His Majesty
“Anorexia?”
The Liu family doctor and the imperial doctor looked at each other in confusion: "What kind of illness are you talking about, young lady?"
"I'm just talking nonsense," Wen Jiu said, "Although I'm good at eating, I've never met someone like this. I'm not sure."
In the past, anorexia was only seen in the news.
She grew up in the countryside, and everyone around her loved eating. Her grandfather was a great cook, making even simple dishes incredibly delicious. Wenjiu had always been whiter and plumper than the others.
Later, let alone my friends around me. Especially my girlfriends, they would go crazy when they saw food. They had been trying to lose weight for years and wanted to eat a few bites of everything. No one had anorexia.
"Young lady, you are too modest," said the doctor from the Liu Mansion. "Young lady, your cooking skills are amazing. I heard that your ancestors were a family of imperial chefs, and now your uncle is also the most powerful in the imperial kitchen. Young lady, you must not underestimate yourself."
As the doctor spoke, he suddenly bowed and said, "Miss, I'm not trying to embarrass you. Just try to help me. The meal you prepared a few days ago was very delicious. I think there is still some hope. If it really doesn't work, there is nothing we can do."
Wen Jiu was startled and immediately supported Liu Fuyi: "Fuyi, please don't be like this. I will just try my best."
As soon as these words came out, they both laughed and said repeatedly: "Thank you, young lady, thank you, young lady."
"Master, why are you still handling this hot potato? Everyone knows that getting involved in Liu Yu's affairs will lead to bad consequences. Don't let the Fourth Master get angry with you later."
Wen Jiu didn't really want to take on this matter. It wasn't because she was afraid of the Fourth Master getting angry, but because she had never come into contact with anyone with anorexia. She knew her own limitations.
But the doctor from the Liu Mansion had already said this, and at his age, he probably hadn't asked many people for help like this. She didn't want to offend him.
Besides, Wen Jiu always felt a little emotional when he heard about Liu Yu. If he could help, he would help.
"Miss, don't feel embarrassed. We will not make this matter public. You can give it a try boldly. If it fails, it will be my fault." Doctor Liu said seriously.
At this time, everyone is trying to avoid it. For those coming out of the palace or the royal palace, the most important thing is to protect themselves.
The girl has done her best by agreeing to help.
Liu Yu's body is actually in a very bad condition. There is nothing the girl can do about it. It's probably his fate.
Wen Jiu met the sincere eyes of the Liu Mansion doctor, was stunned for a moment, and just said: "Okay."
Doctor Liu, who was standing beside him, kept frowning as he listened, wanting to speak but stopping himself several times. Wen Jiu simply looked at him and said, "Doctor Liu, just speak frankly."
Upon hearing this, Doctor Liu became excited: "Young lady, I heard that you wanted some medicinal seeds some time ago? I have some here, but they are of no use to me. Why don't you take them back?" As he spoke, he handed over a small gray cloth bag.
When Wen Jiu heard this, he was shocked: "That won't do. I can't take your things."
She naturally understood what was going on. She thought that Doctor Liu had accepted her two jars of wine and felt embarrassed. He was trying to find a way to give her something. The seeds in the cloth bag must be worth some money.
Doctor Liu insisted on giving it to Wen Jiu and stuffed the cloth bag directly into Wen Jiu's pocket: "It's not a valuable thing. If you don't want it, I will throw it away!"
After saying that, he pulled Liu Fuyi and Wen Jiu together and said, "Miss, you are busy. We will not disturb you any more."
Without waiting for Wenjiu to speak, he turned around and walked out the door, as if he was afraid that Wenjiu would return the seeds to him.
After leaving the house, Doctor Liu was also confused: "Brother Liu, what are you doing..." He only mentioned that he had given the girl a few seeds, but he didn't expect that Doctor Liu really did it.
Doctor Liu breathed a sigh of relief. "Alas, I haven't given anyone a gift in years. My heart is about to burst out of my throat."
Doctor Liu looked at the Imperial Physician Liu, whom he had looked up to in his childhood, and couldn't help but twitch his lips. Regarding this gift, are there any medicinal herb seeds?
Even though the girl said she wanted something, it doesn't mean she really likes it, right?
Wouldn't it scare the girl if you just stuff everything at once like this?
If this was done by someone else, Doctor Liu might think he was stupid, but since it was done by Doctor Liu, it was somewhat understandable.
Doctor Liu was nearly 70 years old, nearly 20 years older than him. When Doctor Liu became famous in the Imperial Hospital, the Emperor was still a child.
When he first entered the palace with his father as a child, Doctor Liu had already firmly established himself as the chief judge of the Imperial Medical Service.
In terms of seniority, no one in the Imperial Hospital had more experience than him. When Emperor Taizu was still alive, he was assigned to care for the Emperor. When the Emperor contracted smallpox at the age of three, it was Doctor Liu who served him closely. This earned him more respect in front of the Emperor than anyone else.
However, he has been focusing on surgery for many years. During this trip, the emperor was most concerned about any accidents happening to the princes. Because Doctor Liu is the best in treating orthopedic trauma, that's why he asked him to come out at such an old age.
It can be said that treating epidemic diseases is his weakness. Otherwise, there would be no need to seek help from the capital.
"Don't worry, the girl will understand your intentions." Doctor Liu finally said comfortingly.
Doctor Liu immediately smiled and said, "It doesn't matter whether you understand or not. I just feel embarrassed to keep eating and drinking for free like this. The girl is really a good girl. I just met her a little late." As he said this, he sighed with regret.
The smile on Doctor Liu's face froze, and he felt strangely that these were not good words.
Fortunately, Imperial Physician Liu stopped talking and instead comforted the Liu Mansion Physician, saying, "Brother Liu, don't worry too much. The noodles there are so delicious. I think Liu Yu's problem can be resolved as soon as possible."
The doctor of Liu Mansion clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for your good wishes."
The two then returned to their respective residences.
The first thing Doctor Liu did when he arrived at the room was to open the jar of warm wine that had been given to him.
He poured a small glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"Haha, that feels so good."
He happily put down the cup and looked at the other jar. After much hesitation, Doctor Liu finally decided to send a jar to Emperor Kangxi.
The emperor's leg disease has recurred, and he is in much more pain than I am. Sometimes the pain is so severe that he can't concentrate at all. If I were in the capital, I could give him acupuncture to relieve the pain a little. But these days, I'm afraid His Majesty is also having a hard time.
He originally wanted to send the whole jar to Emperor Kangxi, but after looking at it, Doctor Liu felt reluctant to do so.
This wine... is delicious.
If we send a whole jar to His Majesty now, he will only have half a jar left. Will he have nothing to drink in the future?
He didn't have anything valuable on him, and he didn't know what to give the girl next time. He felt embarrassed to ask the girl for anything.
After much hesitation, he finally decided to give the half jar to Emperor Kangxi.
In addition, a letter was sent, repeatedly reminding Emperor Kangxi to drink sparingly.
Doctor Liu was counting the days. If His Majesty was frugal, there would definitely be enough for them to drink until they returned to Beijing.
