When Doctor Shi arrived at Prince Zheng's mansion, Princess Zheng was having a small dispute with Prince Zheng for some unknown reason. Both of them looked unhappy, and they sat facing each other in silence in front of their son's bed.
This is the case for all families with sick people. Although King Zheng is a member of a royal family, their family is no different from that of a normal family. They are very worried about their son's illness.
Doctor Shi had seen this kind of situation many times, and he didn't think it was a big deal. He sat on the chair beside Bao Ge'er's bed and began to feel Bao Ge'er's pulse. Bao Ge'er hadn't woken up yet, and was sleeping soundly with his eyes closed. After feeling his pulse for a while, he said to Prince Zheng and Princess Zheng: "Prince, Princess, I think the prince's pulse seems to be much better..."
Princess Zheng had already wiped away her tears and forced a smile upon hearing this: "Really? I also felt that he seemed to be quieter and not noisy. It's just that he didn't eat well at noon. He only managed to eat some egg custard and couldn't eat any more."
Doctor Shi stood up and bowed: "Children's appetite is like this. Maybe they ate too much snacks or milk in the morning, so they can't eat anymore. It's okay. You don't have to worry too much."
After a while, someone outside reported that Mr. Kong had also arrived. Princess Zheng packed up her things and waited for Mr. Kong to check the child's pulse. After a while, Wei An also came in with the old doctor.
Wei An had said before that the old doctor's medical skills were also superb. After hearing that they had not yet invited the old physician to treat Bao Ge'er, he went to invite the old doctor himself.
Princess Zheng felt that this was useless. She thought that if Wei An really wanted Baoger to be well, he should go find Shen Chen and continue writing letters to Shen Chen. This would be more useful than anything else.
But Prince Zheng couldn't stand it anymore. Ever since Wei An came here, nine out of ten things Princess Zheng said were asking Wei An to write a letter to beg Shen Chen.
It would be fine if she said it once or twice, but she just kept talking. No matter what topic she was talking about, she would always turn it around and ask Wei An to go find Shen Chen. It was really annoying.
Seeing Wei An coming in, Princess Zheng couldn't help but sneer softly: "If you really want to, go and ask Shen Chen for help. It will be more effective than finding any number of doctors."
Here it comes again! King Zheng sighed, feeling extremely tired.
Wei An didn't say anything, but just glanced at Doctor Shi and asked, "Has Doctor Shi checked Bao Ge'er's pulse?"
Doctor Shi responded, "From what I've seen, the prince's condition has not worsened. He looks relatively stable."
Kong Gongfeng stepped forward and took Bao Ge'er's pulse, and whispered: "The pulse is steady and strong, indeed different from yesterday." After that, he looked at the Zheng Wang and Zheng Wangfei across from him and said: "May I ask the princess and the prince, did the prince cry today?"
Princess Zheng shook her head: "The child did not cry or make a fuss today, and there was nothing unusual about him."
Gongfeng Kong lowered his head, seeming to be puzzled. After a moment, he raised his head and said politely to the old doctor: "Old doctor, you are an excellent doctor. Please come and take the prince's pulse and see what's wrong with him."
The old doctor responded and took out his tools, saying, "I heard from the princess on the way here. If it's a heart disease, then it's normal. It's just that it can break out at any time...that's why it's dangerous. So your pulse diagnosis is normal now. This is also common sense. There's nothing strange about it."
Doctor Shi glanced at him from the side, then lowered his head calmly.
The old doctor slowly put his hand on Baoger's wrist, and took it away after a long time. He put it back on and listened for a while. After a long time, he stood up and leaned on Baoger's chest and listened for a while, then opened Baoger's eyes and took a look.
After looking at Bao Ge'er's fingers, he said with some doubt: "If you say so, this child has a heart disease. In addition to the possibility of hearing unusual sounds in the heart, the fingers are more swollen than ordinary people and appear purple..."
It turned out to be some real stuff! Doctor Shi quickly raised his eyelids to take a look at him, and then saw the old doctor carefully studying Baoger's fingers and eyes, so he lowered his head and tried his best to calm down. No matter what, others should not be able to see anything...
King Zheng asked, "Why doesn't Bao Ge'er have one? His fingers are no different from those of a normal child!"
The old doctor waved his hand and said, "It's hard to say. The child is still young, so the situation may not be too bad. We may have to wait for some time... As he grows older, these symptoms may become more obvious."
Princess Zheng covered her mouth and almost cried. At this time, she was sure that this bait old doctor was useful. She asked him in a crying voice: "Doctor, what should we do now?"
She thought of Shen Chen again, and walked towards Wei An with a pleading look on her face, holding her hand: "Princess, please help me, go and beg the Marquis to give the medicine to Bao Ge'er..."
"Medicine?" The old doctor obviously already knew what Princess Zheng was talking about. He sneered and shook his head: "If this is really a heart disease, no medicine will help."
Princess Zheng didn't believe him. When she heard him say this, she wanted to slap him in the face and shouted, "You are talking nonsense! You are lying! This is impossible! This is impossible! There must be a way. You just listened to Wei An. You just listened to her on purpose and didn't want us to get the medicine. That's why you said this to shirk responsibility and lie to me!"
The old doctor was a little surprised. He didn't expect Princess Zheng to react so strongly, but he still said realistically: "This is true. There is no cure for heart disease. At least among all the cases I have experienced, I have never heard of anyone who took medicine and recovered completely..."
I can only rely on slow treatment. Before I finished saying this, Princess Zheng had already collapsed and screamed. She couldn't stand hearing such words at all, so she immediately covered her ears and yelled at him to get out.
Everyone was speechless for a moment. King Zheng was really in a headache. He said to the old doctor helplessly: "Old doctor, thank you for your trouble. Please go and prescribe medicine first..."
Princess Zheng couldn't hear anything now. Besides, the old doctor was invited by Wei An, so she felt that everything the old doctor said was Wei An's opinion. If the old doctor continued to stay here, Princess Zheng would probably go crazy.
King Zheng didn't want to make the relationship between his wife and daughter too strained. Now that the child was sick and everyone was sad, he no longer had the heart to blame or take sides. He just hoped that there would be less trouble and that the most important thing was to cure the child's illness first. (To be continued)
