The imperial doctor just heard Nanny Sun's voice and quickly stepped forward to check on the princess.
As a result, before she could even feel her pulse, Gu Xuan spat out a mouthful of blood. He and Grandma Sun were shocked and quickly wiped it with their hands.
The handkerchief he was holding was the same one he had just used to wipe the blood of the princess, and the conspicuous red color on it stung Xie Ziyue's eyes.
It was said before that the typical symptoms of the Huizhou plague were high fever first, and then vomiting blood... Didn't the head of the hospital say before that Axuan drank the medicine early, so she should be fine?
Why are you vomiting blood now? Is there something wrong with it?
Xie Ziyue took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down: "You guys take good care of the princess first. I will come back with the head of the hospital shortly."
After that, Taoxiang asked Xin Zhangjing to join them, and the three of them headed towards Lanxin Palace.
She was worried that Concubine Rou would be a monster like last time and would not let her go, so she planned to go there herself this time.
The guards guarding the Weiyang Palace knew that the imperial concubine was going to the Lanxin Palace to find the imperial physician, and they knew the eldest princess's position in His Majesty's heart. They made a smart choice at this time and did not stop her.
If they dare to stop it, it will be a trivial matter to be reprimanded. If there is really something wrong with the eldest princess, she may risk her life.
At this time, the second princess was also in bad condition in the Lanxin Palace. The head of the Taiyuan Hospital led a group of doctors to perform acupuncture, and carefully watched the second princess's reaction for a while before giving her the prepared medicine.
The second princess thought she came because she had been suffering from a high fever for a long time. She could spit out half of the medicine after taking a spoonful of it. The group of people had been busy for most of the day and could only drink half of the bowl.
When Xie Ziyue arrived, the head of the hospital happened to be reporting the situation of the second princess to Concubine Rou. He bluntly said that the second princess was young and she didn't know whether she would be able to survive this time. It would depend on the fate of the second princess.
Concubine Rou pretended to be sad and covered her mouth, her eyes immediately turned red: "My poor second princess, she has to suffer such pain at such a young age. It is really heartbreaking."
"The Imperial Concubine! You can't go in!" Before anyone answered Concubine Rou, the sound of obstruction from the palace maid and eunuch came from outside.
"Where is the head of the courtyard?" Xie Ziyue didn't care about the maids and eunuchs who were blocking her. She only had eyes for her daughter now. Not to mention the little Lan Xin Palace, even the Hell Palace was willing to try.
She looked around and found that the candlelight in the main hall was still on, so she stepped forward without ceremony and opened the heavy curtain.
"Welcoming ministers pay their respects to the imperial concubine." The head of the courtyard was actually standing in the inner room, saluting her at this time.
"Hurry up and go back to Weiyang Palace with me," Xie Ziyue selectively ignored Concubine Rou who was sitting next to her. She breathed a sigh of relief the moment she saw the head of the courtyard:
"Axuan just vomited blood, don't dare to delay."
When the head of the hospital heard that the eldest princess had vomited blood, his expression was very subtle for a moment. There are two masters here, and of course he can only listen to the one with the most authority.
After he agreed, he stood behind Xie Ziyue and followed Xie Ziyue to the door.
Xie Ziyue looked indifferent throughout the whole process and did not say a word to Concubine Rou. Concubine Rou had been sitting at the low table and did not stand up to salute.
The atmosphere between the two was delicate, and the calm surface they tried to maintain was torn apart at this moment. Before going out, Xie Ziyue glanced at Concubine Rou with cold eyes.
Concubine Rou didn't look sideways during the whole process. Only after the group of people went out, she looked at the swaying door curtain after it was put down, with a thoughtful look on her face.
"Wan'er," she said suddenly, startling Wan'er who was trembling beside her.
"What are your orders?" Although Wan'er tried her best to control her, there was still a slight tremor in her tone, which showed that she was very afraid of Concubine Rou.
Concubine Rou pretended not to hear. She touched the jade pendant around her waist with her slender fingers and showed an unknown smile on her face:
"Go and get the small porcelain bottle at the bottom of my dowry."
Before entering the palace, the left prime minister once warned that it must be opened at the most desperate moment.
Although Concubine Rou didn't look at Xie Ziyue just now, since the eldest princess Xiangjia was infected with the plague, they had started several tug-of-wars, and the other party's target would definitely be on her.
She only started to fight back when she was really being targeted. It was already too late. Concubine Rou felt that she needed to take precautions.
"Right." Just when Wan'er was about to turn around and get the porcelain bottle, Concubine Rou seemed to suddenly remember something and asked casually:
"Does she know about the wet nurse? You must make it clear to her. If you want everyone in your family to live well and both brothers to be successful in the future, you must do what I say! Otherwise..."
When Concubine Rou said the first words, her tone was soft, but at the end, her eyes narrowed slightly under the candlelight, which made Wan'er's heart tighten with such ferocity.
"My slave has made it clear, so your Majesty can rest assured!"
"That's good," Concubine Rou's tone suddenly relaxed: "Go and get it quickly, be careful not to break it."
Wan'er nodded and hurriedly walked over to get the small porcelain bottle.
It only takes one look to tell that the whole family of Lan Xin Palace has not changed at all because of the plague of the second princess. The attitudes of the eunuchs and maids all follow their master.
Seeing that Concubine Rou didn't take it to heart, they also criticized the second princess's attitude. They even felt that the concubine had brought a burden back with her, and she was sick every three days just after she was born.
Weiyang Palace's attitude is completely opposite.
After Xie Ziyue hurriedly returned to the palace with the head of the house, the head of the house plunged into the main hall, while she held her hands and walked around.
The eunuchs and maids who were originally in the room already knew about Gu Xuan vomiting blood during her journey to Lanxin Palace.
They all spontaneously came out of the house and knelt under the main hall, saying that they wanted to pray for the eldest princess. As long as they could move God, the princess would be fine.
The guard guarding the door listened to the words of the leading palace maid, and looked at each other with his companion. In the end, neither of them insisted anymore, but returned to the door and continued to guard.
The eunuchs and maids of Weiyang Palace knelt at the foot of the steps, closed their eyes and prayed devoutly. Xie Ziyue also clenched her hands tightly, hoping nothing would happen.
Perhaps God heard their prayers. The head of the Taiyuan Hospital came out shortly after entering, with a somewhat relaxed look on his face:
"Mother, although the princess vomited blood, her pulse condition has improved a lot, and her mind has become much clearer. I think it won't be a serious problem if you take your time."
Generally speaking, doctors should leave a margin of three points when speaking. The head of the hospital will not say this if he is not completely sure.
Since Gu Xuan's pulse condition is gradually improving, it means that the medicine she drank before has an effect on her, and she belongs to the category of good medicine.
According to their previous treatment experience in Huizhou, as long as they insist on taking the medicine and paying attention at all times, there should be no serious problem.
