“But…” Lin Yu’er hadn’t been happy for long when Physician Hua spoke up again.
I wonder if doctors throughout history and across the world only say half of what they mean. After saying "but," Doctor Hua remained silent.
Seeing the increasingly solemn expression on Physician Hua's face, even Shen Shi, who knew the reason, couldn't help but feel worried.
Not to mention the person involved, Lin Yu'er didn't show it on her face, but she was panicking inside and couldn't help but think: Could I have contracted a terminal illness?
Just as Lin Yu'er's heart sank deeper and deeper, she was told, "The young lady is not seriously injured from the fright, but she suffers from palpitations. If she is not treated soon, it may become a serious illness."
Hearing that it was heart palpitations, Lin Yu'er was disappointed, but this was a chronic condition she had since birth, something she was born with.
Over the years, I've gradually come to accept it.
Lin Yu'er was alright, but Doctor Hua's bad habits made Chen Shi, who was waiting to hear about the treatment method, scratch his head in frustration.
Watching Doctor Hua sigh and then stroke his goatee, Shen Shi cursed inwardly: I didn't see him with so many problems in my past life. Why is this old man getting more and more fussy as he gets younger?
There was no time for formalities now. Shen Shi said directly to Physician Hua, "Then treat him and prescribe a medicine!"
Upon hearing Shen Shi's words, an embarrassed expression appeared on the face of Physician Hua, who was over sixty years old.
When Chen Shi finished speaking, "..." Nobody wanted to see it!
"What the Fifth Prince says is true. I will do my best to treat him, but... but I am still researching this illness..." After hesitating, Physician Hua told the truth.
Unexpectedly, Shen Shi's face turned ashen.
Seeing the prince's pale face, Imperial Physician Hua immediately apologized, saying, "It's all my fault for my poor medical skills, but Fifth Prince, don't be discouraged. I have figured out some tricks of the trade, and given time..."
As he spoke, Physician Hua's voice grew weaker.
In his previous life, Physician Hua treated Lin Yu'er three years later. Even in his despair, he realized that he had indeed been too hasty.
You can't use past life experiences to solve current problems.
"Then Physician Hua, you'd better work harder. I'm waiting for you." Looking at the frail Physician Hua, Shen Shi encouraged him.
"Of course, of course!" Even the physician Hua, who himself was not very confident, was moved to tears of gratitude upon hearing that Shen Shi believed him: "I will definitely overcome this problem in my lifetime."
Then, after careful consideration, Physician Hua prescribed a formula for Lin Yu'er to recuperate slowly.
Lin Yu'er's matter was finally resolved, and Gu Yuanbai was now barely breathing.
Seeing this, Lin Han'er quickly shouted, "Quickly, take a look at him! He's almost dying!"
Physician Hua glanced at Shen Shi first, and only went over to examine him after the prince nodded.
Gu Yuanbai was still lying on the stretcher. Chen Shi, a layman who knew nothing about medicine, was also startled when he saw Gu Yuanbai's dark lips.
Indeed, art imitates life; this is exactly like what's shown on TV.
"Reporting to the Fifth Prince, this person was likely bitten by a poisonous insect from the Western Regions," Physician Hua concluded after a thorough examination of Gu Yuanbai.
After listening, Shen Shi nodded indifferently and asked, "Does Physician Hua have a way to cure this?"
There is no best.
"That's not difficult. I've treated this poison before, but to completely eliminate it, it will take at least half a month," Physician Hua replied, bowing slightly.
Shen Shi was somewhat disappointed upon hearing this, but still instructed, "Please ask Physician Hua to do his best to treat him."
Physician Hua wrote another prescription. Shen Shi instructed Qing Yu to fetch the medicine, rewarded Physician Hua with a handful of golden melon seeds, and then sent someone to take him back.
At this moment, Lin Han'er seemed a little off. She looked around anxiously, as if she was waiting for someone.
Shen Shi noticed her unusual behavior and wondered to himself: Was she waiting for someone in his courtyard? Could it be that Gu Yuanbai was about to rebel?
Just as he was wondering, the eunuch's announcement, "His Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!" startled him.
Why is Shen Yu here? How did he know I was here? Could the person Lin Han'er is waiting for be Shen Yu?
A series of question marks popped into Shen Shi's mind. He subconsciously glanced at Lin Han'er and found her smiling brightly.
Suddenly, a strange feeling crept up Shen Shi's spine.
"This humble woman greets Your Highness the Crown Prince."
"This servant greets Your Highness the Crown Prince."
As Shen Yu arrived, everyone in the room knelt down, and greetings rose and fell in waves.
"Rise, all of you." After saying this, Shen Yu looked at Shen Shi with concern.
Just as he was about to speak, Shen Shi asked, "Brother, what brings you here?"
"Never mind how I got here, where are you injured? Have you called the imperial physician?" Shen Yu asked anxiously.
"I'm not injured!" Shen Shi was dumbfounded: "Where did you get this information, brother?"
Equally bewildered, Shen Yu said, "Someone handed a note to the guard at the gate, saying that you were injured while hunting. I waited and waited but you didn't return to the manor, so I guessed you came here."
After listening, Shen Shi understood that his brother had been deceived.
Who would be so audacious as to deceive His Highness the Crown Prince? Shen Shi thought it was probably the work of Gu Yuanbai or Lin Han'er.
But what did they want to do after going through all that trouble to see Chen Yu?
Assassination? From Gu Yuanbai's perspective, killing Crown Prince Shen Yu would be worthwhile, even if it meant exchanging one life for another.
However, given his condition due to the severe poisoning, let alone assassinating the crown prince, he would have difficulty even standing up.
Furthermore, as the crown prince, Shen Yu was surrounded by people with exceptional martial arts skills. To protect his safety, Shen Tu Nan also gave him several hundred secret guards, each one capable of taking on a hundred opponents.
Killing Shen Yu would be as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack.
