Consort Shu breathed a sigh of relief and gently blew on Mu Qianqian's arm: "Then I'll have to trouble Physician Xie."
"What's wrong with you? How can you not even hold a medicine properly? You actually burned the Seventh Princess!" Emperor Yuanwu looked at the arm in Mu Qianqian's arms, his heart breaking.
Physician Li was so frightened that he shivered all over.
This medicine was clearly spilled because...the Seventh Princess bumped into him.
"It's all my fault. I slipped and didn't hold the bowl of medicine properly, which hurt the Seventh Princess," Physician Li said, bowing his head.
He spent decades in the palace.
Naturally, I understand this principle.
If he tries to argue that the Seventh Princess bumped into him and that's why he spilled the bowl of medicine...
Given Emperor Yuanwu's affection for the seventh princess, he might even be accused of deliberately shirking responsibility.
It would be better to just admit your mistake directly.
The Fifth Prince is now seriously ill.
At such a time, how could Emperor Yuanwu possibly severely punish the head of the Imperial Medical Academy?
Emperor Yuanwu held Mu Qianqian in his arms with heartache, his chest heaving twice.
He moved his lips, just about to say that this matter should be put aside for now, and everything should be decided on reward or punishment after the Fifth Prince recovers.
But I never expected it.
Mu Qianqian, who was in his arms, burst into tears.
What's wrong?
What exactly happened?
Her crying drew everyone's attention to Mu Qianqian.
Consort Shu was heartbroken.
Although she didn't know whether Mu Qianqian spilling that bowl of medicine was a coincidence or intentional.
However, her action did indeed dispel all her concerns.
But her arm... must be burning painfully.
"Her arm..." Consort Shu exclaimed in surprise.
Emperor Yuanwu hurriedly lowered his eyes and looked at Mu Qianqian's arm.
My arm, which had just been scalded red, was now covered in a large red rash.
"What happened? Wasn't it just a burn? How did so many rashes appear?" A hint of panic flashed across Emperor Yuanwu's eyes as he supported Mu Qianqian's scalded arm with one hand: "Thank you, Imperial Physician! Thank you, Imperial Physician!!!"
Physician Xie also came over upon hearing the noise.
After examining Mu Qianqian himself, he knelt on the ground and asked, "Your Majesty, it seems that the Seventh Princess's arm is experiencing an allergic reaction?"
"An allergic reaction?" Consort Shu asked, puzzled. "It was just a little burn, how could it cause an allergic reaction out of nowhere?"
"Your Majesty, the medicine that just scalded the Seventh Princess was the Fifth Prince's medicine. There are more than a dozen ingredients in it, and the Seventh Princess may be allergic to one of them, or she may be allergic to some of them. I will have to investigate this carefully," Physician Xie replied earnestly.
"Then we should investigate this thoroughly and be more careful in the future." Emperor Yuanwu stared at Mu Qianqian's arm, his brow furrowing deeply.
Physician Xie carefully examined the red rash on the Seventh Princess's arm, his eyes filled with seriousness.
Consort Shu hesitated for a moment: "Physician Xie, please speak freely."
"The Seventh Princess's arm looks like it has an allergic reaction, it seems to be hives, but it broke out so quickly just from being touched. I've got an idea..."
"What have you thought of?" Emperor Yuanwu's eyes darkened.
"This humble servant is not entirely sure either!" Physician Xie hesitated, not daring to speak.
At that very moment.
Several palace maids came in from outside with rags, intending to wipe up the medicine that had been spilled on the floor and the broken bowls.
"Wait a moment!"
Physician Xie hurriedly walked to the broken medicine bowl, picked up a shard, and took a deep breath near his nose.
"Your Majesty..."
