Chapter 397 (Additional Words) Genius Doctor, Fake Daughter, and Deposed Prince 6
The person who came was Doctor Chen, who had received favors from Pei Yu in the past.
Imperial Doctor Chen changed into an inconspicuous outfit and wore a veil to cover his face before he dared to quietly come to Pei Yu's house to see him.
Pei Yu's personal attendant Yun An was very grateful and quickly led the way for him.
Before they even approached the room, they both heard a series of weak coughs coming from inside.
Doctor Chen had a bad feeling in his heart and asked Yun An, "How long has your highness been coughing like this?"
Yun An thought back and answered truthfully, "It has been about ten days."
Doctor Chen asked again: "Is there any hemoptysis?"
"Occasionally."
"What about the symptoms of continuous fever, loss of appetite, and general fatigue?"
“Both.”
Doctor Chen thought something was not right, so he took out a towel from his sleeve and covered his face before he dared to step into the room to check Pei Yu's pulse.
Yun An was also told to cover his mouth and nose like him before he was allowed to come in and serve.
Doctor Chen took the patient's pulse for a while, and his expression became more and more serious.
Pei Yu lay on the bed, looking extremely weak, but his expression was unusually calm and cold.
His dark pupils were no longer as bright and smiling as before, but now looked like a block of frozen ink, bottomless and filled with endless coldness.
"Just tell me what your condition is. There is nothing I cannot accept now." His tone was calm, yet hinted at self-mockery.
Doctor Chen's voice was trembling: "Your Highness's illness...I'm afraid it's tuberculosis."
Yun An staggered to the side, as if he had been hit hard.
tuberculosis!
This disease is a terminal illness, how can it be cured?
Pei Yu said nothing, closed his eyes, and hid the resentment in his eyes.
Does God hate him so much?
Took his mother away and left him with a weak and useless body.
Now he is not even given time to find out who is behind this and take revenge.
Looking back on his life, he was kind and good to others, but in the end he ended up like this.
It's really ridiculous and pathetic!
Pei Yu closed his eyes tightly, the resentment deep in his heart continued to accumulate and swell.
He even began to regret the good deeds he had done for others in the past, and felt that behind everyone's smiling faces, there might be hypocritical and hateful conspiracies and schemes.
Right at this moment.
A little girl's voice, as clear as the sound of rocks hitting a mountain, rang out at the door.
"Excuse me, can I come in?"
Everyone in the room looked towards the voice.
Pei Yu also slowly opened his eyes. The ice in his eyes melted away when he saw Cha Jiu's small body. Then he was stunned: "Why are you here?"
When Cha Jiu saw him, his eyes lit up.
But when she looked at his thin and lifeless face and his emaciated body, she suddenly showed a sad expression.
Pei Yu's silent and dying heart began to beat violently again.
He wanted to immediately use something to cover his weak and ugly face.
Cha Jiu pointed in the direction of the outside gate and said, "The gate to your yard is not closed, and there is no one guarding it, so I came in by myself."
Pei Yu was even more embarrassed.
In the past, when he traveled, he was always surrounded by attendants.
Now, apart from Yun An, there is no one to guard the yard.
Just as Cha Jiu was about to step in, Doctor Chen hurriedly stopped her.
"Don't come in, His Highness has tuberculosis. It's contagious!"
Pei Yu, who had just vowed not to do good to others, also reminded anxiously: "Yes, stay away, don't go near this room, no, don't even go near this villa!"
Cha Jiu was stopped by them, with one foot still suspended in the air, looking a little funny.
She just blinked her eyes and looked at Pei Yu and said, "But if I don't come in, how can I treat His Highness?"
What
It's not just Pei Yu.
Even Yun An and Doctor Chen were stunned.
Doctor Chen thought she hadn't heard him clearly, so he repeated it again: "Your Highness has..."
"Consumption. I heard you."
"And I can give it a try."
Having said that, Cha Jiu ignored everyone's surprise, took out a handkerchief, tied it around his mouth and nose, and walked into the room boldly.
Pei Yu coughed and wanted to pull down the curtain beside the bed to cover himself to avoid infecting Cha Jiu with the disease.
Unexpectedly, the outstretched thin wrist was caught steadily by Cha Jiu in mid-air.
"You..." He couldn't help being surprised.
Cha Jiu, however, remained calm and began to take the patient's pulse.
"The cold poison has entered your body, and the virtual fire is burning your lungs. The two forces are colliding with each other, coupled with the intense worry and anger, your body naturally can't bear it."
Then, she stretched out her little hand and pressed a certain spot on his chest, asking, "Does it hurt here?"
Pei Yu was helpless.
She now touched him.
I spoke even when I got close to him.
Besides, telling her to stay away would be hypocritical and useless.
So I answered honestly: "It hurts."
“Maybe there is hemoptysis?”
"have."
“Fever, fatigue, and loss of appetite”
“Both.”
No matter what Cha Jiu asked.
Pei Yu answered them one by one.
Even if these were questions that Dr. Chen had asked before, he was willing to repeat them patiently.
Cha Jiu understood what was going on and wrote down a prescription for Lily Strengthening Gold Soup.
Doctor Chen had never expected that the young girl in front of him was so capable. He took the prescription and read the medicine one by one, with more and more surprise on his face.
"Lily, raw rehmannia root, cooked rehmannia root... these are ways to nourish yin and lungs and eliminate deficiency fire, but why are there these additional herbs at the end?"
Cha Jiu said: "Your Highness has symptoms of hot flashes and sweating, so I added tortoise shell to the original prescription to eliminate steaming and nourish yin; Schisandra chinensis is used to nourish the lungs and stop sweating, and white hyacinth..."
She explained one point after another, with clear thoughts and a steady tone.
Doctor Chen's surprise turned into admiration. He couldn't help but ask, "I wonder which clinic you are an apprentice of, young doctor? Huichuntang or Renxin Clinic? Your master is so accomplished in treating tuberculosis, he must be someone who is not unknown."
In his subconscious, Doctor Chen did not believe that a young girl could figure out the recipe for tuberculosis on her own.
I guess there must be a famous teacher guiding him behind the scenes.
