Chapter 441 Incomplete Prescription
Chapter 441 Incomplete Prescription
The doctor quietly pulled the prince aside. He watched the servants busy with their work and then secretly told the prince:
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince's illness this time is strange.
I heard that only a few servants in the wealthy families in the city had contracted smallpox and were isolated for treatment!
But how did it get to the palace?"
The prince calmed down and asked the doctor softly:
"So, Hongxuan's illness was caused intentionally by someone?"
It seems that someone has lost his patience!
But who has the guts to attack the prince?"
The imperial physician had just returned to Hongxuan's bedside when the prince noticed the familiar figure standing outside.
Under the scorching sun, she shielded her eyes with her hands, beads of sweat appearing on her face. It was obvious that she had been standing there because she was worried about Hongxuan.
Seeing this, the prince was extremely anxious. Without thinking too much, he shouted out the window:
"Yu'er, be obedient and go back quickly!
This is smallpox, get as far away from here as possible, this is no joke!"
At this time, Daiyu was listening attentively to the movements in the house. When she heard the familiar voice, she thought that the prince had come out, so she hurriedly looked around for his figure.
However, no matter how she looked, she could not see the prince.
She suddenly raised her head and found that the prince was standing at the window with an anxious look on his face and did not come out.
Seeing this, Daiyu went to the door without thinking, pushed it open, and wanted to rush in.
However, the maids at the door remembered the imperial physician's instructions and refused to let anyone from outside in.
Daiyu was worried about what to do if the prince got infected with flowers. She wanted to stay with the prince, live together and die together!
For a moment, she didn't care about her image as the mistress of the house and shouted at the door:
"Let me in, let me in!
I am the wife of the family, and my child is sick. Can't I come in and take a look?"
The imperial physician was researching a new prescription for Hongxuan. When he heard Fu Jin shouting at the door, he couldn't help but sigh and went to tell the prince:
"Don't be soft-hearted. It's only been less than two months since she gave birth, and she's already weak!"
The prince could only shout towards the door against his will:
"Go away, leave quickly! Don't you understand that you are only causing trouble if you stay here?"
Daiyu was stunned - I can only cause trouble here?
I just want to accompany you!
All her enthusiasm was wasted. It turned out that she was just being too sentimental!
She told the girl at the door calmly:
"It's hot, and the prince has bloomed again, so you must remember to take good care of the prince.
Wash your hands frequently and eat a light diet. The prince has a weak stomach, so you must prepare more hot food!"
After saying these words, Daiyu seemed to have used up all the strength in her life. She glanced at the inner room again and left in disappointment.
Zijuan was busy in the small kitchen, preparing some food for Daiyu. Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of Daiyu walking slowly towards her from outside, her eyes a little dazed.
Zijuan quickly asked the maid to watch the fire, wiped her hands casually on her apron, walked out quickly, and asked Daiyu with concern:
"Girl, girl, what's wrong with you? Are you suffering from heatstroke?"
Daiyu shook her head slightly and said softly:
"Zijuan, I'm fine.
The weather is hot, tell the kitchen to prepare a bowl of mung bean soup for everyone."
Although Zijuan was a little confused, she still nodded in response.
Zijuan saw beads of sweat on Daiyu's forehead, so she hurriedly picked up the handkerchief on her body and wanted to wipe the sweat off Daiyu.
But before Zijuan came near, Daiyu gently pushed her away. She only heard her say:
"No one is allowed to see me until this time tomorrow.
If I don’t have a fever, come over again.
Also, tell the nurse to take Rui'er to stay at Zhuiyun Pavilion for a few days."
Zijuan was inevitably a little surprised. She wanted to ask what was going on, but she heard Daiyu slam the door shut.
Zijuan had to take turns with Xueyan to accompany the wet nurse to take care of Ruier. In the blink of an eye, the child was almost fifty days old, and it was time to have fun.
Zhuiyun Pavilion was tidied up when Xiangyun got married. It is not too far from Cuizhu Garden.
In one of the main rooms, there is a century-old sycamore tree in front of the house, which blocks the summer heat and makes you feel cool once you enter.
The nanny put Hongrui on the bed, and Xueyan picked up a rattle to play with Hongrui.
The little guy's big eyes moved with the rattle, and his little hands were in his mouth from time to time.
Zijuan was so lost in thought that she forgot Daiyu's distraught look. She picked up Hongrui again, holding him in her arms like a treasure, and teased him with a smile:
"Baby, call me Aunt Juan!"
Xueyan suddenly burst out laughing and pointed at Zijuan and said to Hongrui, "Son, don't call her Aunt Juan, you have to call her Aunt Yingge!"
Zijuan was so happy that she didn't care about this. Her daughter had gone through so much hardship, and who would have thought that the sickly girl that everyone thought was sickly gave birth to this white and chubby baby!
Zijuan patted Hongrui and said with a smile:
"Call me Parrot or Aunt Cuckoo, as long as my Rui'er is well, I will be content!"
……
As the night deepened, Hongxuan seemed to sleep more soundly.
The doctor came over and told the prince, "Prince, the maids are here to take care of you. Go wash your hands and at least go lie down outside for a while."
The prince looked at Doctor Xu's gray beard and felt a little soft-hearted. He quickly pushed Doctor Xu aside:
"I really trouble you, at your age, to still worry about my house!
The prince has come up with such a dangerous smallpox again!"
At this time, Cai Lian came over quickly with tears on her face and red eyes.
The first wife could not be found, and Xuan'er got smallpox again. She felt like the sky was falling!
Cai Lian walked up to the prince and handed him an exquisite purse with trembling hands.
The prince took the purse, and a trace of doubt arose in his heart - why should he give a purse to this girl?
Cai Lian nodded slightly, signaling the prince to open his purse.
The prince did as he was told and gently untied the string of his purse, revealing a small piece of paper inside.
The prince carefully unfolded the note. Although the handwriting was a little blurry, it was still recognizable.
It seemed to be a prescription, with some medicinal ingredients listed on it:
"Old Ginseng, Cinnamon, Yun Ling, Soul Pill, Thousand Cypress Leaves..."
The prince whispered the names of some medicinal herbs. Before he finished, the imperial physician beside him suddenly heard it. His face changed and he hurriedly reached out to take the note.
The imperial physician carefully examined the prescription on the slip of paper and muttered to himself:
"These medicines...are all for boosting your energy."
His brows were tightly furrowed, as if he was thinking about something.
After a while, the doctor seemed to have suddenly thought of something. He raised his head and said to the prince:
"Given the prince's current condition, he needs to be relieved first and then replenished. After a few days, the medicine in this prescription can be used.
If you can get through these few days, you'll be fine."
After the imperial physician finished speaking, he carefully read the prescription again, and then pondered for a long time, always feeling that the prescription was still missing a few ingredients.
The imperial physician anxiously asked Cailian, "Miss Cailian, please take a closer look. Is there any other note in your purse?"
Cai Lian hurriedly picked up the purse again, wanting to see if there was any note inside.
However, when she opened her purse again, she was surprised to find it was empty.
The imperial physician could not help but shake his head and sigh:
"Oh, what a pity, this prescription can save lives!
"One missing ingredient can make a huge difference, like heaven and earth! How should I use this medicine?"
