Chapter 81 Gaining the Upper Hand



Start examining her shoes closely.

It turned out that there was a big hole in the sole of her shoe, which was in tatters; the surrounding shoe surface was stained with spots of blood, which was unbearable to look at.

Then he quickly stood up, walked back to the bed, and gently held Wen Zhu's injured ankle. When he found that a large area of ​​flesh on her foot was burned, the wound was red, swollen, and charred, and looked extremely painful. He could hardly control his emotions.

"Why didn't you tell me about such a serious injury? You even ran away just now!"

There was uncontrollable anger in his tone.

Why doesn't this person react at all?

Is there really water in your head?

After hearing such a rebuke, although a trace of uneasiness and sadness rose in his heart, Wen Zhu still tried his best to keep smiling, "Maybe it does look a little scary from the outside, but it's actually not that painful."

In fact, she just didn't want others to worry about her.

"You still insist on saying this!"

Looking at her pretending to be calm, Fu Yu became even angrier.

At this moment, "May the prince be blessed with good health."

A respectful voice came from outside the door, and the doctor from the mansion had arrived in time.

"Come in."

Fu Yu responded quickly without much delay.

A figure carrying a medicine box came in. He was about to salute when he was stopped. "Go check Wen Zhu's foot."

There was a sense of urgency in the words.

"Okay, I'll take care of it right away."

So the doctor first cleaned the patient's damaged skin, applied several layers of ointment, and finally wrapped a clean bandage on it. The whole process was carefully observed.

In order to prevent Wen Zhu from seeing his injuries and causing unnecessary panic, Fu Yu blocked her sight with his hands from beginning to end. This action made the latter feel warm in her heart. Even though she was not very afraid of pain, she was still very grateful for this care.

However, just when everything seemed to be returning to normal, Wen Zhu suddenly burst into a series of violent coughs: "Cough cough..." The doctor noticed her pale face and said, "Miss, you don't look well. Please extend your arm so I can feel your pulse."

Wen Zhu obediently stretched out his arm so that the doctor could easily take his pulse.

After listening to the pulse, the doctor's expression looked a little heavy and his brows were furrowed.

Fu Yu's expression became more and more solemn, with obvious worry and uneasiness in his eyes.

"It seems this girl inhaled some smoke, but the situation is optimistic. She'll feel better after drinking a lung-moistening and phlegm-clearing decoction for a few days. This is also the main cause of her high fever."

The doctor explained slowly, trying to keep his tone calm.

"Then prepare the herbs as soon as possible without any delay!"

Fu Yu immediately gave the order, his words revealing a sense of determination.

"Actually, what I want to say is..." The doctor hesitated, as if he had something to hide. His hesitation made people suspicious.

"Don't hesitate, just say what you want to say."

Fu Yu was extremely anxious when he saw this, especially when he saw Wen Zhu, who was extremely weak at this time, and was obviously dissatisfied with the doctor's procrastination.

"However, from my observation, this girl seems to have drunk too much cold contraceptive soup, causing severe damage to her body. She may need a long period of rest to recover. In addition, many of the medicines commonly used to clear the lungs are not suitable for her condition."

The doctor explained the reasons in detail.

Fu Yu frowned slightly at first, then his eyes widened and he turned to Wen Zhu with an incredulous look: "You actually drank the contraceptive soup?"

There was surprise and a hint of questioning in his voice.

Hearing this, Wen Zhu was stunned and didn't know how to respond for a moment.

It was obvious that Fu Yu was indeed too busy with official duties to notice many things happening in the backyard.

"Young Madam has always asked me to take this kind of contraceptive soup on time."

In the end, Wen Zhu lowered his head and spoke in a low voice.

After learning the truth, Fu Yu instantly became furious. He took a few deep breaths to try to calm himself down, but in the end he couldn't help but slammed the table and yelled, "Zhao Manxiang!"

After a while, when he regained some of his sanity, he lowered his voice and asked, "Why didn't you tell me before?"

Although the tone has softened, one can still feel the emotional fluctuations hidden within.

"This kind of thing is actually not uncommon in large families. It is a common practice to have other wives and concubines take contraceptive soup before the mistress becomes pregnant. As a servant in the family, how dare I go against such a deep-rooted tradition?"

Wen Zhu's voice was extremely weak, and she almost had to use all her strength to make the people around her barely hear her answer.

"What a lousy rule! It's simply bullying!"

Fu Yu's words were full of coldness and injustice, and his eyes flashed with anger.

The doctor coughed lightly, trying to ease the oppressive atmosphere. "Judging from her pulse, the contraceptive soup Wen Zhu drank was more potent than usual. Fortunately, she has recently stopped using it and has been taking supplements. Otherwise, she would most likely be unable to have children by now."

The doctor's words made everyone present feel depressed.

Under the light, one can see the changes in Fu Yu's facial expression, especially the long-suppressed anger in his eyes, which is like a volcano about to erupt, making people feel that thunder will fall at any time.

"Write her a prescription first."

Fu Yu tried hard to control his emotions, pursed his lips, and gave orders calmly.

Despite his inner turmoil, at this moment, reason prevailed over him.

So the doctor slowly walked to the desk, sat down, and began to think seriously.

It took about twenty minutes before a treatment plan was finally determined.

After all, according to Wen Zhu's current condition, there are very few available medicines, which makes this list particularly rare.

"This prescription can help Wen Zhu improve her lung problems. Although it takes longer to take effect, it is a relatively safer choice for her."

After saying these words, the doctor conveyed the advice to Fu Yu very cautiously and respectfully.

Taking the newly written prescription, Fu Yu turned and looked at the woman beside him, "Show the doctor the old prescription you used for warming and nourishing the body."

He gently told Wen Zhu that he hoped to find more ways to help his health.

After hearing this, Wen Zhu quickly took out an old prescription that he had treasured for a long time and handed it to the person in front of him.

After reviewing it, the other party nodded and commented, "This is a very common recipe for nourishing the body. Of course, we can also add some precious herbs to improve it, but it will take at least half a year to complete."
