The housekeeper smiled apologetically and whispered, "These doctors don't know the details yet, so why not ask the palace doctor to treat the Second Madam?"
Nanny Qin said, "I've been to the court doctor several times and taken the medicine he prescribed, but it hasn't been effective. The Second Madam wants to see another doctor. They say folk doctors have secret remedies that might be able to cure me."
