Chapter 74: Knife



Su Qianji seemed to be busy. Jiang Yao didn't know what he was busy with. He was stopped by Nanny Liu at the door.

It's a wonderful day when I don't have to wait on Sukuchisai.

I originally wanted to go back and rest for a day, but suddenly the promise I made to Zhao Huang yesterday popped into my mind.

Jiang Yao returned to the house and took the medicine with him. He dragged his heavy body and moved in small steps to the East Palace again.

Zhao Huang seemed to have been waiting there for a long time, drinking tea leisurely.

Eunuch Yuan was also there, and they both looked at Jiang Yao when they saw him approaching.

"Why do I feel that something is wrong with this girl today?"

"Your Majesty, there seems to be something wrong with Miss Jiang's legs."

"Go and help me."

From a distance, Jiang Yao saw Eunuch Yuan walking towards her in a hurry.

"Second Miss Jiang, let me help you."

"Thank you, Eunuch Yuan."

Jiang Yao was extremely grateful. She had walked half as slowly as usual along the way, which not only wasted time but was also a torture for her.

When they reached the pavilion, Jiang Yao quickly knelt down to pay his respects.

Zhao Huang waved his hand: "Don't kneel down."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"What happened to your legs?"

Jiang Yao smiled awkwardly: "I went for a run last night, and then I became like this."

Zhao Huang was startled for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Haha, running has made you into this state. I thought you were pretending to be sick because you didn't want to see my legs."

"That's impossible. Your Majesty, you can doubt my character, but you cannot doubt my professional ethics."

Jiang Yao looked serious, and Zhao Huang laughed even harder.

"Xiao Yuan, did you hear what she said? She made me doubt her character."

Eunuch Yuan couldn't help but smile: "Miss Jiang's intention is that she promised the emperor that she would definitely come."

Jiang Yao glanced at Eunuch Yuan with gratitude: "Yes, yes, that's exactly what I meant."

"Okay, I believe you." Zhao Huang waved his sleeves and sat down: "Then you can start, let me see this leg."

When Jiang Yao said that yesterday, Zhao Huang didn't quite believe it, and he hadn't heard that Jiang Yao was a doctor. After returning home, he immediately sent someone to the Taifu Mansion to see Jiang Ao. It was said that Jiang Ao had used the medicine prescribed by Jiang Yao, and now his knee pain has started to subside. It was said that after a few more days of recuperation, he would be able to get out of bed and walk briskly.

Zhao Huang has had knee problems for some years, and the imperial physicians in the palace could only prescribe some painkillers, but the condition could not be cured at all. Now that Jiang Ao is better, he has more hope for Jiang Yao.

With the help of Eunuch Yuan, Jiang Yao sat on the stool, but it was not convenient for her to check Zhao Huang's knee.

She struggled to stand up, and then found that she could bend over, but not squat.

In order to examine Zhao Huang's knees, she had to either lower herself or Zhao Huang had to sit higher.

But I hope Zhao Huang can sit higher.

Jiang Yao felt that it was unrealistic. He was just sitting there like a big boss. Asking him to move his butt would be like asking for death.

She simply sat on the ground, which made it more convenient.

Zhao Huang saw her sitting on the ground and looked at her in surprise: "Jiang Yao, why are you sitting on the ground?"

Jiang Yao smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, I have to show you my knees."

Zhao Huang smiled and said, "You don't have to sit on the ground then."

"I can examine you more carefully this way." Jiang Yao had a smile on his face, and muttered in his heart: If you don't want me to sit on the floor, why don't you sit on the table.

Alas, but whoever's family is the boss is a big shot, and she is a small shrimp, struggling to survive, and can't afford to offend them.

"Your Majesty, it's the right leg, right?"

Zhao Huang pulled up his robe and moved his legs forward a little.

Jiang Yao stretched out her hand directly, and at that moment she noticed that Eunuch Yuan's expression changed for a moment.

As clever as she was, she quickly withdrew her hand and asked cautiously, "Your Majesty, is it okay for me to expose your knees during the inspection?"

"It's not like I don't understand. Of course you have to take off your shoes for inspection. Just look, and I'll forgive you."

Only after being pardoned did Jiang Yao dare to take off Zhao Huang's shoes.

As the saying goes, living with a king is like living with a tiger, so she has to be careful in what she says and does.

Compared with Zhao Huang and Su Qianji, Jiang Yao is of course more afraid of Su Qianji, but for some reason, she feels more at ease staying with Su Qianji. Although she is sometimes scared to death by Su Qianji, she still feels that Zhao Huang is more terrifying in her heart.

I felt that if Zhao Huang said something about beheading, he would definitely not be able to escape it.

Jiang Yao was very careful when examining Zhao Huang's knee, fearing that he would hurt it if he used too much force, and also fearing that he would miss something if he was not careful enough.

"Your Majesty, your right leg is sore and painful, and you can't do many movements, right?"

"Yes."

"Your Majesty, have you ever been injured here before?"

"I was injured when I fell off a horse."

Jiang Yao checked for a while and finally determined the cause of the disease.

"Your Majesty, you have joint effusion caused by injury."

It was easy to sit on the ground, but difficult to stand up. She struggled for a long time before Eunuch Yuan, with his sharp eyes, saw her and came forward to help her up.

"Thank you." After expressing his gratitude to Eunuch Chao Yuan, Jiang Yao slowly sat down and continued, "It seems that there is too much fluid in your knee. It needs to be drained to relieve the pain. With medication, you will recover."

"There's fluid in the knee?" Zhao Huang became more and more confused the more he listened. "Isn't the knee full of blood? What is fluid?"

Jiang Yao: "."

How should she explain the backward ancient medicine?

Zhao Huang saw that she was a little embarrassed and asked, "Is it difficult to explain?"

"No, it's just that." Jiang Yao lowered his voice and asked, "Your Majesty, can I not say it?"

Seeing that she was in a real dilemma, Zhao Huang thought to himself, Jiang Yao didn't know anything about medicine before, but she knew it after coming to Feiyan Palace. What does that mean? It must be that Su Qianji taught her.

If these all came from the Yutian Kingdom, Jiang Yao refused to tell him, perhaps it was Su Qianji's request.

In that case, he didn't ask any more questions.

"Okay, I won't ask anymore. Just heal my leg."

"Of course, Your Majesty, although there is a serious accumulation of fluid in your knee, it is well controlled with medication. I will find a time to operate on you and drain all the fluid."

"Use a knife?" Zhao Huang was stunned.

"Use a knife?" Eunuch Yuan had the biggest reaction.

Jiang Yao was so frightened by the two shouts that he froze completely.

"Anything wrong?"

"Miss Jiang, stop joking. How could the emperor use a knife?" Eunuch Yuan said meaningfully.

Jiang Yao immediately understood that it was not a question of whether the disease could be cured by surgery, but that Zhao Huang could not undergo surgery.

However, knee effusion cannot be solved without surgery, especially for Zhao Huang's serious condition. He has been controlling it with medication for so long, but it has accumulated even more.

"Your Majesty, if you can't use surgery, then I can't cure it."

She was very frank and had always taken a rigorous attitude towards medicine. She could not change her original intention just to comfort anyone.
