Chapter 286 What's the matter that makes you so anxious?
Lexi was not afraid of him. Not only that, he became even more aggressive.
"If you have the guts, I can call her something else."
Le Xi continued, "But I see, you are still not capable enough, otherwise how could you let her marry that little fox of the Wei family?"
Ji Qingwu pursed his lips and immediately took half a step back.
But the flames of war had already reached her, and she saw that the flames in Emperor Wu Su's eyes were about to burn her.
Ji Qingwu hurriedly said, "Doctor Le, it's more important to see the patient first."
Don't let the emperor get angry again before you cure his illness.
Li Yuzong brought in a few rosewood chairs, and Le Xi sat down to take the emperor's pulse. Ji Qingwu didn't sit down, but stood beside the two of them and watched.
As soon as Le Xi put his fingers on it, a few wrinkles appeared on his face.
He asked, "What were you two doing just now? Why is your blood boiling so violently?"
The two of them just now were likely to cause misunderstanding. Ji Qingwu explained, "You haven't come yet. I am examining His Majesty's injuries."
Le Xi was shocked at how hot-blooded young people are, and said, "Does it take so much time to examine the injury? You look at me, I look at you, and you have to take off half of your clothes?"
After being told this by his elders, Ji Qingwu really wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Zhao Mingyan glanced at her, his expression unchanged, and said, "You're just seeing a doctor, why are you talking so much?"
Le Xi said, "When seeking medical advice, one must observe, listen, ask and feel the patient. How can one know without asking? I won't tell you, a layman."
He turned to the woman beside him and asked, "Why are you so concerned about his injury?"
Ji Qingwu said: "...It was a moment of urgency."
Lexi pressed harder with her fingers, but her expression remained relaxed.
She said as if she was telling a story: "You are such an impatient girl. When you heard the eunuch say that the emperor was in a bad condition at the palace gate, you almost fell off the carriage."
"I was so anxious after getting off the bus that I was sweating all over. My shoes almost fell off when I was running."
Le Xi asked curiously, "Xiao Awu, what's the matter that makes you so anxious?"
This time, the emperor no longer had any objection to him calling him Ji Qingwu, and his fingers on the table moved slightly.
He looked deeply at the woman who had lowered her head and her ears were flushed.
Ji Qingwu wasn't completely embarrassed, there was a hint of confusion in her eyes, was she really like this...
She moved as swiftly as a rabbit, got off the carriage, and ran steadily and quickly.
Not long after.
Le Xi stopped talking, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper, he stared intently at the bricks and stones in Zhaoyang Palace, his expression becoming more and more serious.
He didn't speak, and the atmosphere in the hall became stagnant.
Although Ji Qingwu was not taking the patient's pulse, he also felt the feeling of encountering a difficult disease.
Le Xi, with his silver hair and white beard, looks quiet and silent, much like a miracle doctor, but it is also enough to make people uneasy.
After taking the emperor's right hand's pulse, he signaled him to change to his left hand. Taking the pulse with both hands alternately was a problem.
As a fellow doctor, Ji Qingwu also had a worried look on his face.
Among the people in the hall, Zhao Mingyan looked the most relaxed. His eyes met hers and he even raised his eyebrows slightly at her.
This caused Ji Qingwu to look angry.
Le Xi finally withdrew his hand and started cursing without caring whether the person in front of him was the emperor or not.
"You don't want to live anymore!"
"I've told you long ago that you have a special physique. Every part of your body is strong. You are a martial arts prodigy that is rare in a thousand years. But if there is a weak spot in your body, you will be in danger easily."
"The antidote I gave you has already added a balancing ingredient. It shouldn't cause the reaction of your Qi flowing down and being unable to vent."
Ji Qingwu only understood half of what he heard, and asked softly, "Doctor Le, what exactly went wrong?"
Lexi stood up angrily: "Did you hire another doctor behind my back?!"
"Those quacks in the Imperial Hospital couldn't tell that you had taken the Bixi Pills. The doctor you found gave you two medicines that destroyed the Bixi Pills' effectiveness!"
"Do you think you have a son and someone to take over your family and you don't care about anything anymore? Do you want to explode and die?"
Zhao Mingyan frowned, glanced at Ji Qingwu briefly, and denied, "No."
He asked in a deep voice: "The most urgent thing now is how to treat it."
Le Xi didn't smile at all, and said in a muffled voice: "You should ask for help from someone else."
But a pair of eyes were staring at Ji Qingwu.
After hearing so much, Ji Qingwu suddenly realized that there was something wrong with the medicine he gave to Emperor Wu Su.
Guessing in one's mind and hearing it with one's own ears are two different things. It turns out that being assassinated and injured was indeed part of the emperor's plan.
Ji Qingwu felt a mixture of emotions.
But she still knows clearly what is most important now.
She said, "Doctor Le, the medicine you mentioned should be the one I gave to the emperor."
Le Xi said in wonder, "It's you, girl..." and sighed, "You are so willing to give him all the rare medicinal herbs in the world."
Ji Qingwu felt a little sad when he thought of his bare Wutong Garden.
But since we have paid so much, we must make sure that Emperor Wu Su's health is in good condition.
She asked, "Is there really no other way?"
A gleam flashed in Lexi's old eyes, and he deliberately pondered for a moment.
"There is a way."
"What is it?"
Le Xi said: "Although you didn't know about it beforehand, his current situation is also related to you."
Ji Qingwu knew there was something fishy going on, but he still jumped in.
"...what do you want me to do?"
*
Everyone in the hall retreated.
The red door closed, and Li Yuzong sent Le Xi to the door. Hesitantly asked, "Doctor Le, will the method you suggested really work?"
Lexi nodded and said, "Okay, there's nothing better than this."
As if he had thought of something, he ordered, "Go prepare some warming and nourishing soup and the ointment."
Li Yuzong didn't react: "What ointment?"
Le Xi said: "What kind of ointment, do you need me to tell you, Xiao Zongzi, can you do it? After the tenderness, you need to prepare it for the ladies."
"Your emperor is so vigorous and energetic, and now there is a strong drug in his body. How can the delicate skin of that girl withstand it?"
Li Yuzong felt embarrassed for the first time: "But Zhaoyang Palace has never hosted other ladies."
Although Mr. Li, the chief steward, can draw inferences from other things, he is still a novice in this matter.
This cannot be blamed on him. He has been with Emperor Wu Su for such a long time, but he has never seen such a scene. The green cards in the palace have all rusted.
Li Yuzong had no idea what to prepare for afterwards.
Lexi asked, "Have the ladies never stayed overnight?"
Li Yuzong nodded heavily.
Le Xi was silent for a long time, and said with a feeling of pity: "This girl is pitiful, I will write a prescription for the ointment myself, and you can prepare it according to this."
It was still bright daylight outside, but it was dark inside the hall.
The palace door was tightly closed and there were layers of black-armored guards outside guarding it. Not even the sound of wind could get in, and the palace was unusually quiet.
