Chapter 626 Mother, Miss Mother
The Fourth Master was indeed feeling rather uneasy. The wet nurses who served the other princes, along with Nanny Gui, were all, without exception, punished. A gloomy mood permeated everyone, from top to bottom.
Wen Jiu had no time to care about anything else. He just touched his son's face distressedly and asked, "How to treat it?"
Upon hearing this, Doctor Liu's face turned pale. He glanced at the Fourth Master and finally said, "I'm afraid we'll have to use the Western Region Snow Lotus again."
As soon as Doctor Liu finished speaking, the Fourth Master, Su Peisheng, and the silent man guarding the door all looked gloomy.
The people who served him were all familiar with the pressure the Fourth Master had to bear in raising the eldest prince over the years. They still had some lingering fears.
The Western Region Snow Lotus is very valuable, and now that the Second Prince also needs medicine, won't the palace be emptied of these medicinal herbs? This Western Region Snow Lotus is not something that can be bought with silver.
When Wen Jiu heard this, he was stunned for a moment: "Western Region Snow Lotus?"
The doctor in the Liu Mansion thought she didn't know what it was, so he explained in detail: "The Western Region Snow Lotus is the only special medicine that can penetrate gently and deeply, and has the effect of nourishing the heart. It is currently the most suitable medicine for the Second Prince."
Wen Jiu: "Can we just use the Western Region Snow Lotus? Can it completely cure the disease?"
Upon hearing this, the Liu family physician was stunned for a moment, thinking that the concubine didn't understand how hard it was to come by the Western Region Snow Lotus. However, he naturally wouldn't say it out loud to discourage her. For a moment, he speculated, "Second Prince's illness..."
"Illness comes like a mountain falling, and goes away like a thread being pulled out. I don't think there's any way to cure it completely anytime soon."
The Fourth Master spoke before the doctor from the Liu Mansion could speak: "Jiu'er, don't worry. As long as the right medicine is used, I think the child will be fine."
The doctor of the Liu Mansion was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Your Highness is right."
Wen Jiu glanced at the Fourth Master and Doctor Liu.
I always feel that there are some things these two people have not made clear to her.
When he frowned and wanted to ask more questions, he saw Xiao Jin crawling out from the space.
"Master, as the Liu family physician said, the Western Region Snow Lotus has an inhibitory effect on the young master's poison, but eradicating it is extremely difficult. This poison appears to have been congenital, and the root of the problem may be in the Fourth Master."
Wen Jiu frowned and looked over. Xiao Jin explained, "The commonality between the young master and the eldest prince is their father. Perhaps the answer can be found in the Fourth Master."
Wen Jiu was stunned: "Then check the Fourth Master's body as well."
I remember that I had examined him thoroughly before, but no such symptoms were found in the scan. Could it be that this poison has an incubation period?
Wenjiu was still a little worried, so he asked Xiaojin to check on all the other children as well.
After a while, Xiao Jin said, "Master, the other young masters are all in good health. You don't need to worry for now. However, we did find a very small amount of poison in the Fourth Master. If we hadn't carefully checked, we might have missed it."
Xiao Jin frowned and touched his chin and said, "But I can be sure that this poison must have come from the Fourth Master.
A poison that can be inherited should be quite potent. However, the Fourth Master has been practicing martial arts for over a year now, and his body is no longer the same as it was a year ago. Given his current physical condition, if you two have another child, the poison will surely not be passed on to the child.
Wen Jiu couldn't help but frown slightly: "What kind of poison is it? Find out and see how to cure it."
At this, Xiao Jin actually shook his head. "This poison is still quite complicated. From what we've found so far, there's more than one type of poison. Perhaps the Fourth Master planted several poisons in his early years.
The poison attacked the heart, creating the illusion of congenital heart damage. No wonder these doctors all thought it was a disease brought in from the womb."
"How to treat it? Is there any way?" Wen Jiu couldn't help but become a little impatient at this moment.
Xiao Jin immediately said, "Master, don't worry. Since we can tell it's poison, there's naturally a way to cure it. Find a way to get the Fourth Master's blood, as well as the Young Master's and the Eldest Prince's. I need some time to try to prepare an antidote."
Furthermore, we have the Western Region Snow Lotus, which can temporarily warm the young master's heart without affecting his body.
Alas, if the young master could awaken the Great Longevity Art, such a minor poison could be ignored."
After hearing what Xiao Jin said, Wen Jiu felt relieved for a while.
I subconsciously glanced at the Fourth Master and found that there was a dark cloud over his head. Obviously, he was also very depressed.
Wen Jiu finally tugged at his hand: "Master, don't worry too much. As long as the medicine is used, the child will be fine."
The Fourth Master was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Don't worry, I will bring the medicine back tomorrow."
The snow lotus he had recently obtained from the Western Regions had already been used to make medicine for Honghui, so there was no way he could use it on Dabao. He needed to see the Fourth Young Master as soon as possible.
Wen Jiu was stunned for a moment, then said, "Master, are you talking about the snow lotus from the Western Regions? No need to go out and buy it, I have it."
As soon as these words were spoken, several people in the room subconsciously looked towards Wenjiu.
The Fourth Master couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and in a trance, he felt a little moved.
"The snow lotus from the Western Regions is hard to come by. Where did you get it, little girl? Don't be so stubborn. Don't worry, I will keep the child safe."
"I really have the Western Region Snow Lotus..."
Wenjiu had only said half of his words when he noticed Dabao's little fingers moving in his arms. He rubbed his whole body in Wenjiu's arms, and then opened his eyes.
"Mother!"
Seeing the warm wine, he seemed quite happy. Although he looked a little listless, it did not stop him from reaching out to touch his mother's face.
"Mother... Mother, I miss you."
Wen Jiu looked down and saw that the silly boy didn't seem to realize he was poisoned. Perhaps because he hadn't seen his mother all day, he was so happy that he opened his mouth and laughed. He didn't have any teeth in his mouth, and his saliva was flowing from his mouth.
Wen Jiu wiped his son's saliva. Seeing his childish smile that seemed to melt anyone's heart, he felt a little sad. "My dear Dabao, are you feeling unwell? Hmm?"
"Mother, mother..."
When she was nervous just now, she still had some energy to warm up the wine, but now her heart has calmed down a little. When she hears her son calling "mother" over and over again, her nose becomes sore. The next second, tears fall.
Dabao stared at the warm wine with his big eyes like black grapes, blinked, and then stretched out his soft little hand to touch his mother's face.
"Don't cry, don't cry, Dabao, be good."
Wen Jiu couldn't help but be stunned by this. He had always thought his child was small, but now he realized that although his son was still young, he seemed to be developing faster than other children. He seemed to understand everything when he was talking to him. Tears fell uncontrollably, and he couldn't help it.
