Chapter 625 Poison?
[Master, it's Dabao who's in trouble! His amulet is broken!]
Wenjiu's face turned pale instantly, and almost subconsciously, he immediately went to the warm room where the children lived.
"Jiu'er, what's wrong?" The Fourth Master was stunned for a moment and immediately chased after him.
"Where are the children? What happened?"
Seeing Aunt Gui at the door, Wenjiu suddenly grabbed her.
"Concubine?" Nanny Gui was startled. She came to her senses after a moment's daze. Seeing that it was warm wine, she breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "The little princes have already eaten, and since it's late today, they've gone to bed. The wet nurse is watching over them in the room. The little princes are still missing you today..."
Before she finished speaking, Wenjiu turned around and went into the house.
Nanny Gui was also stunned for a moment, then she saw the Fourth Master approaching and immediately bowed, "Your Highness."
The Fourth Master nodded: "What's wrong?"
Aunt Gui shook her head subconsciously: "I haven't seen anything unusual today..."
There were four wet nurses serving in the house.
The whole quiet house was filled with various fresh fruits, and the faint fruity fragrance emanated from it, giving the impression of a peaceful and tranquil life.
Wen Jiu pushed the door open and came in, subconsciously looking at his son.
The faces of the children sleeping were all red. Their eyes were focused on Dabao.
At first glance, the child seemed no different from usual.
But, that's not right!
Xiao Jin had said before that the amulet could ward off a fatal disaster at a critical moment.
What on earth did her Dabao experience today?
Wenjiu could hardly imagine that in the blink of an eye, he had placed his own blessing of peace on the child.
Regardless of the fact that the child was sleeping, she walked up to him, picked him up, touched his little face, and her face turned pale.
"Someone, go and call the court doctor! Call the court doctor!"
The Fourth Master entered the room at this moment, his face not looking good either. Seeing Wen Jiu's anxiety, he immediately frowned and ordered, "Quick, call the palace doctor."
He walked quickly to Wenjiu: "Jiu'er, what's wrong with the child?"
Wenjiu touched the child's face with trembling hands: "Grandpa, the child's face is a little hot, please touch it."
Fourth Grandpa reached out and touched his son's face, frowning: "It's a little hot."
Seeing this, a nearby nurse smiled and said, "Your Highness, Concubine, don't worry. The young master is young, so he'll be a little hotter than the average person. It's the height of summer, so we don't dare use ice in the house. The young master ate and drank normally today, and even played for a while during the day. He's in great spirits."
Wenjiu did not relax at all and called Xiaojin out in the blink of an eye.
"Xiao Jin, use my life value to test the child comprehensively."
Xiao Jin nodded and started testing immediately.
Soon, his face turned ugly.
"What's wrong? Explain clearly."
Xiao Jin was stunned. "Master, we checked the little master's body before and found nothing abnormal. After a thorough examination today, we found that there is something wrong with the little master's body..."
The color on Wenjiu's face drained away instantly: "What's wrong? Tell me clearly!"
Xiao Jin frowned. "Something's wrong. It doesn't seem like a disease. It seems more like... poison."
"What did you say!"
Wenjiu's pupils shrank suddenly.
Poisoned?
Impossible! How could someone poison her son right under her nose? She was extremely careful about his daily diet. There was no way anyone could have had the chance!
Xiao Jin also frowned: "It doesn't look like he has taken poison in his daily life. Master, wait a minute, I need to check again."
When Xiao Jin went back to the space to check something, Doctor Liu was also dragged to Qingliang Pavilion by Su Peisheng.
His hair was still loose, and he had obviously rested.
Naturally, he didn't dare to delay at this moment. After paying his respects, he trotted forward to take Dabao's pulse.
“Uh… Uh…”
When everyone entered the house, the noise inside became a little louder. Sibao rubbed his eyes, saw the warm wine, and immediately stretched out his pair of milky little hands.
"Be good, Sibao, can I hold you later?"
Wenjiu was very worried, but he really couldn't free his hands to hold his son.
Sibao looked at his mother's expression and immediately pursed his lips: "Uh uh..."
"Well, mother is here, wait a minute."
As he spoke, the Fourth Master reached out and picked up Sibao.
"Ama will hold you."
The child was disturbed during his sleep at night, which was annoying, but he cried a few times in the arms of the Fourth Master. But the time had finally come, and the fourth child was a little sleepy. He swayed in the Fourth Master's arms and fell asleep soon.
The Fourth Master placed Sibao on the bed and drew up the curtains to prevent the noise from being too loud and waking up the others.
After doing all this, he turned around and looked at the doctor from the Liu Mansion.
Doctor Liu not only took the patient's pulse at this moment, he also rolled his eyelids and looked at the tongue coating. After a while of struggling, his expression became more and more serious.
"What's going on?" This time, it was the Fourth Master who was anxious.
By now, the Fourth Master had naturally sensed something was amiss. Dabao was the most energetic of the children. Under normal circumstances, if there was any movement in the house, he would have been awake. He was the most eloquent, having already called out to their fathers and mothers.
But today there was no movement at all, and it looked like he was sleeping soundly, but the Fourth Master was worried.
"This... Master, it seems to me that the Second Prince's condition is somewhat similar to that of the First Prince."
When these words came out, Wen Jiu's face was still a little confused. But the Fourth Master's face turned pale in an instant, and he stood up suddenly: "What did you say!"
The doctor of the Liu Mansion hunched over, his head lowered as he spoke, "Master, the Second Prince is still young, and his pulse is slightly better than the First Prince's, but there are subtle signs of weakness... If I hadn't noticed the Second Prince's temperature was off today and summoned a servant to take his pulse carefully, this symptom would have gone undetected."
"What disease is it? What will happen if my son gets this disease?" Wen Jiu felt something was not right the more he listened.
After hearing this, the Liu family physician glanced at the Fourth Master before replying, "Concubine, this condition is mostly caused by congenital deficiencies. It's a difficult and complicated disease, and no ancient records have been found. But don't worry, the Second Prince's condition is much milder than the First Prince's. I have a special medicine to treat this disease."
"Don't be afraid, it's okay, it will be okay."
Wenjiu noticed that the Fourth Master had his arm around his shoulders, but his hand was shaking.
Wen Jiu didn't know what exactly was ailing the eldest prince. She had asked the Liu family doctor before, but he simply said it was due to insufficient fetal strength and seemed reluctant to reveal too much. To prevent others from thinking she had ulterior motives, Wen Jiu didn't ask too much.
But looking at the Fourth Master's expression, Wen Jiu knew that he was panicking.
