The little emperor was sick again.

This time, it was Wei Jien, the right judge of the Tai Hospital, who asked for the pulse of the little emperor.

Looking at the pulse, it is just an ordinary external feeling, Wei Jien followed the way of treating colds, prescribed prescriptions and decoctions, and thought that if one or two patches of medicine went down, the "holy bow" should be "unharmed" - the little emperor has a weak foundation and is easy to catch a cold, but after all, he is young, and the little problem of headache and brain fever comes and goes quickly.

However, the next day, the little emperor's condition did not weaken, but worsened: shivering, high fever, fatigue, and cried out for headaches, arm pains, leg pains, back pains—it hurt everywhere.

This is a rare occurrence.

If you don't hold him - every time, the queen mother of the two palaces has to repeatedly tell her, "good life will be raised", and even a special decree is transmitted, "not allowed to go out of the Taiji Palace" - the little emperor is still going to wander around.

This time, I could barely get out of bed.

Wei Jien carefully checked the pulse, his brows furrowed and furrowed, and he still didn't understand the point.

Ci'an was a little anxious.

The queen mother has always been the most generous in treating her subordinates, and the rules in the palace can be scolded by anyone, but you can't easily scold the imperial doctor - I am afraid that the more the imperial doctors scold, the more afraid they become, the more they are afraid, they will lose their ground, see the wrong disease, and use the wrong medicine - of course, it is another matter if you really don't see the disease.

Despite this, despite his efforts to be kind and pleasant, and despite the fact that Wei Jien's pulse was clearly written—"the wind and cold from the outside", Ci'an still asked the words "what disease did the emperor have", which meant that the queen mother and empress dowager expressed serious doubts about Wei Jien's diagnosis—if the little emperor Lian had any disease. Didn't figure it out. How to talk about the right medicine?

The sweat on Wei Jien's forehead came out.

After retreating. After thinking about it again and again, although he was reluctant, he couldn't help but discuss it with Wang Shouzheng, the judge of the left court.

Wang Shouzheng listened to Wei Jien's description, and "chuckled" in his heart: Isn't that "talk" coming?

No, it shouldn't be such a symptom when that "talk" strikes.

He pondered for a moment and said, "Please take the pulse again." ”

Within an hour, please take the pulse twice in a row. It's rare, this is basically equivalent to saying that the last time he asked for a pulse, he didn't understand it, and there was even a possibility of missight, which was naturally a very faceless thing for Wei Jien, but he had no choice but to agree.

Please pass the pulse. Wang Shouzheng's brows furrowed as well—he couldn't tell why.

Wei Jien's heart was a little more comfortable. However, the pressure has not diminished at all. If you can't get the symptoms, you don't know how to take the medicine - the emperor's illness doesn't look like it can be delayed!

Wang Shouzheng is also under great pressure.

The little emperor's illness this time, although it was Wei Jien's first invitation, but now Wang Shouzheng has also "gone into the water", and the people in the same boat can't tell each other anything. What's more, he is the judge of the left court, the actual person in charge of the Tai Hospital, and compared to Wei Jien's judgment of the right court, the responsibility is only heavy.

On the third day, the little emperor added the big and small problems that could not be solved, and he kept shouting "thirsty", and it didn't work to drink water, saying that his chest was burning and uncomfortable.

Ci'an was really panicked.

At this time, inside and outside the palace, it has been spread very strongly, and people are saying that the emperor's illness this time is fierce, not as good as before, quite worrying.

When the military plane "called", Ci'an asked: Are there any good doctors outside the palace?

Regarding this question of the queen mother and queen mother, the big military planes are quite embarrassed.

"Recommending a doctor" is not a very special thing, but no emperor has ever "recommended a doctor" from the people to the palace since he first became ill. On the one hand, this is too much of a slap in the face of the hospital, and on the other hand, it is also more important, which is tantamount to telling the world that the emperor's illness is fierce and very serious, to the extent that the imperial doctor is helpless, which will inevitably cause further fluctuations in people's hearts and even cause political turmoil.

This meaning, Guan Zhuofan said to Ci'an euphemistically.

Ci'an was also embarrassed, thought for a while, and said, "What about Xuan Jun?" In the Xuan army, there should be a good doctor, right? ”

Yes?

"After returning to her mother, the queen mother, the best doctors in the Xuan army, are all foreigners, this seems to be ...... system"

"It's okay," said Ci'an, "we can quietly call them into the palace......

As soon as the words came out, he knew that something was wrong, so he hurriedly stopped, but his face was already red.

It may not be impossible to call a foreign doctor into the palace, but now that the military plane is "called", it is the most serious court discussion, how can you say anything like "quietly"?

"The Queen Mother and the Queen Mother are concerned about the heart of the emperor's fist," Guan Zhuofan said, "It is really heaven and earth to learn!" Ministers and others are inscribed within the five! The holy bow is of the utmost importance, and it should not be muddy in the old ......"

"That's it, that's it!"

Ci'an hurriedly agreed, thought about it for a while, and said: "In this way, I will give an order on the matter of 'recommending doctors', and I don't want you to be responsible." ”

Yu Ci'an originally meant well, but in the ears of the big military planes, the weight was too heavy, and he couldn't help but bow down together.

"How dare the ministers shirk their responsibilities?" Guan Zhuofan said, "Wait...... Ashamed! ”

"Huh? Oh, I didn't mean that......"

After a pause, he sighed and said, "I'm just in a hurry, I'm a little messy, don't mind, what to do, naturally I still have to listen to you...... Your. ”

When he said "don't mind", Ci'an still didn't feel that there was anything wrong with the word "you", and when he said the second word "you", he felt something, so he quickly changed his words to "you".

"The Queen Mother and the Queen Mother are considerate, and the ministers are grateful!"

After a pause, Guan Zhuofan said: "It may not be impossible for foreign doctors to enter the palace, but most of Xuanjun's doctors are surgical doctors, but they are not necessarily suitable - Rong Chen went down to search carefully." ”

"Good!"

"The emperor's pulse case," Guan Zhuofan said, "Every single one, the ministers have read it carefully, and they have also asked the imperial doctor, and among the ministers, there are also ...... who know a little about medicine."

After a pause, he continued: "The emperor's illness, although it seems to be very serious, is a symptom that many diseases will have, relying on these symptoms alone, it is indeed not easy to diagnose what the disease, there must be some corroboration before it can be truly diagnosed." I recommend a doctor to the palace now, but I am afraid that there will be different opinions, and there is even more inconsistency, so-"

After another pause, he said, "Please let the Queen Mother and Queen Mother be relieved, and wait for another day or two; In this or two days, the ministers will not sit still, but will seize the light of the day, search for famous doctors, and prepare for the 'inner court offerings'. ”

"Okay, then, you ...... Just bother. ”

That night, the little emperor had nightmares, woke up crying and screaming several times, and had convulsions and spasms in his hands and feet—all of which he had not had before. Wang Shouzheng and Wei Jien, as well as the eunuchs and palace maids of Changchun Palace and Taiji Palace, never slept peacefully, and everyone tossed and turned on their backs.

Naturally, these circumstances did not dare to hide from the Queen Mother.

Ci'an can no longer "be lenient", Guan Zhuofan also said that within today, he will find all the "famous doctors", some of them are from the West, some are from the land and some are from the West, and they will be called into the palace early tomorrow morning.

However, in the afternoon, the little emperor's symptoms of high fever and chills suddenly weakened a lot, his body was not so painful, and he was also a little refreshed.

Ci'an received the report and was overjoyed: Ouch, is this going to get better?

Wang Shouzheng and Wei Jien, the two imperial doctors, were not happy.

Because, on the little emperor's body, there were many patches, and these patches were purple and bulging, which were very different from the pale reddish and very smooth spots of the last time.

Ci'an asked, "Is it a rash?" ”

"Uh, this," replied Wang Shouzheng, "the queen mother and queen mother, it should be ......"

"Ah, that's easy to do—you have to bother more, after the emperor recovers, I will have my own reward."

"Uh, the Queen Mother of Xie, the Queen Mother......"

Ci'an's concept of "rash" is very vague, instinctively thinking that this is not a big deal, and last time, wasn't the emperor also "rash"? That time, it didn't take a few days to get better, and there was not even a trace left on the dragon's body.

Since it has been diagnosed, and it is not a too serious problem, the matter of recommending a doctor to the palace was withdrawn.

Wang Shouzheng and Wei Jien are not so optimistic.

There are many kinds of "rashes", measles, rubella, chickenpox, and throat rash - that is, the "scarlet fever" in later generations, which kind of rash on the emperor's body is?
