Chapter 177 His Highness the Third Prince, who has been training in Foguang Temple since childhood,
Chu Hanxiao couldn't argue with Xie Qinghuan.
I can only follow her wishes for now and then decide based on the circumstances.
otherwise……
I'm afraid no one will be able to sleep today.
The next day, it was still dark.
The two were awakened by eunuch Sui Rong who was knocking on the door in a panic.
"Miss Xie! Miss Xie!! The emperor has fainted again! Judge Wang, please come over as soon as possible!"
Xie Qinghuan sat up in a daze.
After hearing what Eunuch Sui Rong said, he instantly came to his senses.
He quickly stood up and gathered his hair.
Chu Hanxiao helped her put on her coat.
The two of them hurried out and came to the main hall.
The several imperial doctors who were already in place knelt down and saluted when they saw Chu Hanxiao.
Greeted in unison.
"Greetings to His Majesty the Third Prince."
The two looked at each other suspiciously.
Sui Rong explained:
"Recently, disasters and epidemics have been rampant in Kyoto. Outside the palace, rumors are spreading that it was the Highness who brought the disaster back to Kyoto...
The people are uneasy and the country is in turmoil.
When the Emperor learned about this last night, he drafted an edict overnight:
In order to quell the disaster, His Majesty, who has been practicing in Foguang Temple since childhood, has been summoned back to the court by Heaven!
To ward off disasters and eliminate chaos, to calm the people's hearts..."
This……
Xie Qinghuan got annoyed when he heard this.
"The emperor's health has just improved, why should we tell him about the situation outside?"
When Sui Rong heard this, he bowed his head in haste.
"Miss Xie, please calm down. Your Majesty, the Emperor woke up last night...
He then inquired about the Queen Mother's treatment of the Grand Prince and the movements of all officials.
Your servant... Your servant dare not not report it..."
Chu Hanxiao heard it.
Then you can understand the worries and pressure in the emperor's heart.
He was afraid that after he fell, the King of Dongzhou and others who were ready to make trouble would take the opportunity to cause chaos...
He was worried that Chu Zhenye and the Queen Mother would not be able to handle it and that all officials would be shaken.
Only then did he draft an imperial edict overnight to announce his identity to the world.
One can win the hearts of the people;
Second, he can also pull him up and fight against the King of Dongzhou who supports Chu Yingji.
Seeing that Xie Qinghuan was still agitated, he raised his hand and pressed her shoulder.
Persuade gently.
"Father is concerned about the people and the court. How can Sui Rong stop him?"
Sui Rong wiped the sweat from his forehead and thanked Chu Hanxiao repeatedly.
"Thank you for your understanding, Your Highness."
He leaned towards Xie Qinghuan again.
"Miss Xie, the emperor has fainted again...what should we do?"
Xie Qinghuan was so angry that he almost died.
The emperor is already in poor health.
And he insisted on working hard while he was sick!
There's no way he can get better!
She rolled her eyes at Sui Rong and looked towards Wang Yuanpan.
"What are Uncle Huang's symptoms now?"
Court Judge Wang, along with several people from the Imperial Hospital, replied hesitantly.
"I just examined the patient and felt that... there seemed to be signs of high fever again..."
High fever...
I am afraid that the epidemic will recur and come back again.
Xie Qinghuan sighed and walked into the inner hall holding up her skirt.
Upon seeing this, Chu Hanxiao ordered Sui Rong:
"Don't report the Emperor's relapse to the Queen Mother yet."
He glanced at the imperial physician again with a warning look.
"No one is allowed to leak the secrets in the court! Anyone who leaks the secrets will be killed without mercy!"
"Yes!"
"Yes."
Several imperial doctors clasped their fists and nodded, agreeing one after another.
Then he followed Chu Hanxiao to the inner hall.
Xie Qinghuan has finished taking the pulse.
Still worried.
The most feared thing about an epidemic is its recurrence, which means that the emperor's health has become weaker.
The disease has become resistant to drugs...
She sighed and turned back to ask Wang Yuanpan.
"Has the prescription used by the emperor yesterday been used on other patients?"
"Yes, they were given to two palace maids and two eunuchs."
"How's the effect?"
Judge Wang pondered for a moment and raised his eyes.
"The symptoms of the two palace maids seem to have eased, but the internal official...has not yet had a fever."
She hesitated.
"When giving the medicine to men, you can increase the dosage of coptis root and bupleurum root."
"Yes."
He set his gaze on the dragon couch covered with a gauze curtain.
"The emperor's prescription..."
Xie Qinghuan shook his head.
"Your Majesty's body is precious, and he usually takes too many tonics... Let me think about the prescription."
The emperor is different from ordinary people.
There are three thousand beauties in the harem, and they have to work day and night on state affairs.
This resulted in yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity, and internal liver wind movement.
Unfortunately, most antipyretic medicines are cold in nature and can easily damage the yin essence.
She didn't dare to increase the dosage rashly...
Nothing can be done.
She locked herself in a side hall, and was exhausted by studying various medical books.
Chu Hanxiao couldn't help her with anything.
I can only make some bird's nest for her and stay with her quietly.
Another day passed.
There was thunder and lightning in the evening.
Xie Qinghuan emerged from the sea of books with dark circles under his eyes.
Throw herself into Chu Hanxiao's arms.
Panic and anxiety.
"What should I do! Chu Hanxiao, I can't cure Uncle Huang... It's been two days, he's almost burned to death..."
"Don't worry, you've tried your best..."
Chu Hanxiao patted her back and persuaded her.
Xie Qinghuan leaned weakly on his shoulder, muttering to himself.
“Scutellaria baicalensis…clears away heat and dampness, purges fire and cools blood;
Forsythia suspensa, detoxification, expelling evil, eliminating carbuncle and dispersing nodules...
Poria, diuresis, swelling, dampness-removing and spleen-strengthening..."
She muttered to herself, wondering what more effective medicinal herbs could be used as substitutes.
I'm almost driving myself to death.
There was thunder rumbling outside the window and heavy rain pouring down.
It made her even more uneasy.
Chu Hanxiao knew her stress and gently stroked her back.
Just as I was about to open my mouth to comfort her, I sensed a strange scent outside the window.
"Who?"
Who could sneak into the heavily guarded Panlong Palace without being noticed?
He shouted sharply.
Protecting Xie Qinghuan behind him, he gave the order in a deep voice:
"Someone come! Protect the emperor——"
The iron armor gleamed coldly, and they marched in with neat steps.
Divide into two teams.
One team guarded the main hall, and the other team came to receive orders.
"Your Highness, Third Prince!"
Xie Qinghuan was also affected by the tense atmosphere and became uneasy.
"Chu Hanxiao...what happened?"
Chu Hanxiao held her hand.
He gave a wink to the leading imperial guard.
The man waved his iron hand, and the guards waiting outside the door spread out from both sides.
Not long after.
The guard reported back holding a piece of wet cloth.
"Third Prince, I didn't see anyone suspicious, I just found this under the window."
The guard leaned forward and presented it with both hands.
Chu Hanxiao took it and examined it carefully.
Forsythia, honeysuckle, roasted ephedra, stir-fried bitter almonds...
"It seems to be written on it..."
"prescription!"
Xie Qinghuan scanned it quickly.
Proportion in mind.
Confirmed, this is the prescription for treating the epidemic!
She was confused.
Since that person had developed the medicine for the plague, why did he send it to her?
Don’t leave your name or reveal your identity!
Prescriptions, itinerant doctors, masters...
These several unrelated things were inexplicably connected together in her mind.
Why……
She felt like someone was always helping her but was always avoiding her?
Is that person... the master?
Master remembers her?
But if you remember her, why don't you recognize her?
Is it...
This life...
Didn't he want her as his disciple anymore?
Be puzzled.
She grabbed Chu Hanxiao's arm tightly.
"Chu Hanxiao, catch up with him!"
Chu Hanxiao saw the sadness and determination in her eyes.
My heart trembled.
Don't ask too many questions.
He nodded and flew away, soon disappearing in the rain.
Xie Qinghuan hurried to the main hall holding up her skirt.
Give the prescription to Sui Rong.
"The judge of Prince Xuan will go to the palace and show him the prescription before giving it to the emperor."
"Yes."
She delayed no longer.
He put on a straw raincoat, took the token, and urged his horse to leave the palace.
