Chapter Ninety-Five: The High Fever Doesn't Go Down (Part 1)
Li Zhang followed Zhao Zhen and walked quickly back to the Taoist temple where Miao Yuan lived, and then Li Zhang saw that the name of the Taoist temple was Miao Yuan Temple, and at this time, people came and went in the temple, and the white-bearded imperial doctors were even more solemn, but the inner servants and palace maids were panicked.
"What did you two bastards do, why did Miao Yuan suddenly faint!" As soon as Li Zhang and Zhao Zhen entered the main hall of the Taoist temple, they were scolded angrily, and when the two of them looked up, they happened to see Liu E's angry eyes.
"Big lady, I'm ...... I ......" Zhao Zhen usually looks like a very clever person, but when he meets Liu E, he is like a mouse meeting a cat, and he is speechless at this time.
"Niangniang, I drank some wine with the prince last night, so I disturbed the princess's rest!" Li Zhang immediately confessed at this time, he would never shirk his responsibility, not to mention that Liu E obviously knew that they had been here, so it was useless to deny it at this time.
"Drinking? Who made you drink? Liu E was angry again when she heard this, after all, Li Zhang and Zhao Zhen are both children, if they start drinking at such a young age, won't they become drunkards in the future?
"This ...... Be...... It's our father who poured us hard! Zhao Zhen finally mustered up the courage to say in a low voice.
Liu E was also stunned when she heard her son's words, and then thought of Zhao Heng's confused appearance, and couldn't help but smile a little bitterly at the moment, in fact, she didn't want Zhao Heng to participate alone last night, but it was inconvenient for her to come forward as a woman, and there were too many government affairs to deal with last night, so she had no time to take care of Zhao Heng and them, but she didn't expect that a momentary negligence would lead to so many things.
"Mother, how is the little princess?" Li Zhang asked again at this time, he just saw that the imperial doctors who came in and out all looked solemn, and it seemed that Miao Yuan's condition was very serious, which made him quite worried.
"Miaoyuan's eight characters are too light, and she can't be called a princess for the time being, you can just call her the Taoist number." I saw Liu E showing a somewhat tired expression at this time, and then spoke again, "According to the palace maid beside Miaoyuan, not long after the two of you left, she suddenly fainted to the ground, and then immediately asked the imperial doctor to come over for treatment, but now Miaoyuan has not only woken up, but has a high fever that does not go away, and the situation is very bad!" ”
"How can this be, but Miao Yuan was still talking to us when we left?" Zhao Zhen's tears swirled in his eyes when he heard this, he was such a sister, before he met Li Zhang, it was thanks to this sister that he was not too lonely in the palace.
Seeing her son's grief-stricken appearance, Liu E couldn't bear to blame him anymore, and Li Zhang also frowned, there are many reasons for fever, although he knows some ways to lower body temperature, but this can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause, if you can't find the real cause, it is not a good thing to lower the patient's body temperature without authorization, and even if the cause is found, there is no medicine available in his hand at all, unless ......
Time passed minute by minute, and the imperial doctors inside were also doing their best to treat them, but until noon, these imperial doctors could not make Miao Yuan's high fever go down, as for the cause of the disease, they found a few, some people said that Miao Yuan was a high fever caused by wind and cold, and some people said that she was congenitally weak, and the body temperature increased due to the external yang and inner yin......
Li Zhang didn't know much about traditional Chinese medicine, and listening to these imperial doctors debating the cause was like listening to a book from heaven, but he also saw at this time that these imperial doctors couldn't determine the cause of Miao Yuan's high fever at all, and they couldn't find the cause, and they could only give medicine to the superficial symptoms, but these drugs had limited effect, even if the body temperature dropped a little, it would quickly rise again.
In the face of this group of noisy imperial doctors, Liu E also scolded the waste angrily, and now these imperial doctors immediately did not dare to quarrel anymore, but they also couldn't come up with a unified plan.
Li Zhang quietly pulled the corner of Zhao Zhen's clothes who was wiping his tears, and then glanced at him, so the two quietly came to the corner, and Zhao Zhen asked in a low voice with red eyes, "What are you doing?" ”
"Take me to see Miao Yuan, maybe I can save her." Li Zhang said in a low voice at this time.
"Really?" Zhao Zhen showed a suspicious look when he heard Li Zhang's words, after all, he never knew that Li Zhang still knew medical skills.
"It's all now, do you think I'm joking?" Li Zhang said very seriously at this time, he didn't know if he could see Miao Yuan's condition, but now that the imperial doctors were arguing, they couldn't come to a conclusion at all, since this was the case, it was better for him to give it a try, if it wasn't a special condition, the cause of high fever in children was nothing more than a very common one.
Zhao Zhen has long cultivated trust in Li Zhang, after all, as long as Li Zhang agrees to something during this time, there is nothing he can't do, so after hesitating for a moment, he finally nodded heavily and said, "Okay, cousin, come with me!" ”
Zhao Zhen led Li Zhang from a small door behind the main hall to the backyard of the Taoist temple, here is a very quiet courtyard, and in the courtyard there is a delicate small building, Zhao Zhen and Li Zhang went upstairs one after the other, as soon as they entered the door, they saw a noble lady sitting on the edge of the bed crying, no need to ask, she should be Miaoyuan's biological mother Du Guifei.
"Du Guifei, how is Miao Yuan?" Zhao Zhen saw Du Guifei and immediately stepped forward to salute, but his eyes kept staring at his sister on the bed, and tears poured out all of a sudden.
Li Zhang finally saw Miao Yuan on the hospital bed at this time, although he had seen each other last night, but because he was too drunk, he only remembered that Miao Yuan and Tanuki were about the same age, but he couldn't remember what he looked like.
I saw that Miaoyuan's little face was red now, but it was not that healthy red, but a sickly flush, and her facial features were very delicate, quite similar to Du Guifei next to her, but now she was breathing short and urgent, and even her hands and feet trembled slightly, which was obviously caused by a high fever, and even Li Zhang suspected that Miaoyuan fainted before, could it be a convulsion caused by a high fever?
"Prince, why are you here, Miao Yuan has been unconscious, and he poured the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor just now, but this fever has not been able to go away!" I saw Du Guifei wiping her tears and saying, although she knew that her daughter's illness was related to Zhao Zhen, but she also knew that their brother and sister had always had a deep relationship, and Zhao Zhen definitely didn't mean to, so she didn't blame him.
"Ahem, cough~" At this moment, Miao Yuan on the hospital bed suddenly had another light cough, although it was not very violent, but it made Miao Yuan's body curl up, and his little face also showed a painful expression, but he never woke up.
"What's the smell in the room?" Li Zhang suddenly twitched his nose a few times at this time and asked, because he found that in addition to the smell of medicine, there was also a strange fragrance in the room, this fragrance was not the girl's body fragrance, let alone the fat powder fragrance on Du Guifei's body, in fact, Li Zhang smelled it as soon as he came in.
Du Guifei glanced at Li Zhang strangely at this time, she stayed in the palace all the year round, and she was not very well-informed, so she naturally didn't know Li Zhang's identity, and Zhao Zhen also raised her head and sniffed a few times at this time, and then pointed to an incense burner in the middle of the room and said: "It should be the incense in the incense burner." ”
The so-called incense, also known as incense, is actually the fragrance emitted by some special spices when burning, and I don't know from what dynasty, the nobles, especially the scholars, are very fond of incense, and the incense in the palace is even more common, even the clothes worn by the nobles have to be smoked with incense, Miao Yuan is a Taoist priest, and the use of incense is simply common.
"Nonsense!" Li Zhang immediately strode over, picked up the incense burner and threw it out the window, although he didn't know the cause of Miao Yuan, but she had symptoms of coughing, which indicated that the other party's respiratory tract must have a problem, and the fragrance in the incense burner was produced by burning spices, the stronger the smell, the greater the irritation to the respiratory tract.
"Ahh You ......"
Du Guifei was taken aback by Li Zhang's rude movements, and just wanted to call someone to stop him, but Zhao Zhen opened his mouth to explain at this time: "Du Guifei, don't panic, this is my cousin Li Zhang, he knows some medical skills, so I want to see if I can heal my sister!" ”
"Cousin? You are the relative that the queen just recognized? When Du Guifei heard Zhao Zhen's words, she also remembered some rumors in the palace, and looked at Li Zhang with some surprise.
"Yes, but now is not the time to talk about this, can the concubine allow me to touch Miaoyuan's forehead, I want to see if she burns badly?" Li Zhang came to Du Guifei at this time and pleaded, originally he wanted to say that he would estimate Miaoyuan's body temperature, but he was afraid that the other party would not understand, so he could only try to explain in words that she could understand.
"This ......" Du Guifei was still a little hesitant when she heard this, after all, Li Zhang was just a child, and she really didn't believe that the other party knew any medical skills.
"Du Guifei, the imperial doctor outside is arguing, but there is no reliable explanation, it is better to let my cousin give it a try!" Zhao Zhen also interceded for Li Zhang at this time, he is also in a mess now, although intellectually he feels that Li Zhang cannot be more clever than the imperial doctor, but as long as there is a trace of hope emotionally, he will never give up.
Du Guifei was also a little moved when she heard Zhao Zhen's words, and Li Zhang is also a child, but there is no male and female defense, and it is nothing to touch her daughter's forehead, so she finally nodded and said, "Okay!" ”
Seeing that the other party agreed, Li Zhang was also immediately overjoyed, and immediately stepped forward and reached out to touch Miaoyuan's forehead, and found that her forehead was amazingly hot, although there was no thermometer, but with his experience, it was estimated that Miaoyuan's body temperature was at least above thirty-eight degrees, or even more than thirty-nine degrees.
"What are you guys doing!" At this moment, I suddenly heard an angry rebuke, and then I saw Liu E walking in with a few palace maids, and her eyes were full of anger when she looked at Li Zhang.
"The eldest lady is angry, and my cousin just kindly wants to help my sister see a doctor!" Seeing Liu E coming in, Zhao Zhen immediately explained for Li Zhang.
"Sister, I ......"
Du Guifei wanted to explain for Li Zhang at this time, but Li Zhang suddenly turned to Liu E and said, "Niangniang, I may have a way to make Miaoyuan's high fever go down, but I need the eldest lady to promise me one thing!" ”
