Chapter 761: Cold illness
“It’s good if she’s okay!” She lost her mind and so her manners, so she hurriedly adjusted herself: “Thank you for telling this concubine about my brother’s family condition. He never tells me about bad events at home.”
Bai Zhi smiled and said, “Meng Daren is afraid that you will also get too worried like him, so he naturally chooses to only tell good things to you. To have such kind of brother, I can’t help but be envious.”
Meng Xuanling raised an eyebrow and asked, “So, you have no brothers?”
Bai Zhi shook her head: “No, but I have a lot of family members. They are all good.”
Looking at the little girl in front of her, Meng Xuanling could sense a trace of maturity on her from time to time, despite only looking like a 12-13-year-old girl.
Oh, she was a 13-year-old girl!
Bai Zhi looked at Meng Xuanling’s face and suddenly said, “Concubine Shu, this young lady will check your pulse.”
Meng Xuanling asked: “Oh? Does this concubine looks like a sick person?”
Bai Zhi nodded her head honestly: “Yes, the concubine doesn’t look very good.”
The palace maid beside Meng Xuanling also said: “Niangniang, since Miss Bai is here, let her check your pulse. This servant heard to the people in Cifu Palace say that Miss Bai’s medical skills are far better than those Head Doctors in the Imperial Hospitals.”
Meng Xuanling faintly smiled: “At a young age, your medical skills are so good.”
Bai Zhi also faintly smiled: “It’s just a little fur.”
Meng Xuanling said: “Then, thank you.”
Bai Zhi got up, walked slowly in front of Meng Xuanling, and sat on the soft stool moved by the palace maid. She pulled Meng Xuanling’s arm very naturally, and lightly put her fingers on her wrist.
After careful examination, Bai Zhi’s originally flat brows suddenly wrinkled, as the look on her face gradually became heavy.
After withdrawing her hand, Meng Xuanling asked, “How is it?”
Bai Zhi said directly: “Did the concubine ever had a cold disease after giving birth?”
Meng Xuanling nodded: “Indeed, this concubine had a cold, how did you know that? This concubine has never mentioned this to anyone, even the emperor doesn’t know it.”
Bai Zhi continued to speak: “The cold that the concubine experience was not acquired but rather induced. Presumably, the concubine knew it in her heart.”
Meng Xuanling’s facial expression didn’t change, she looked as calm as before: “What about it? If you live in the harem and didn’t get drugged, it’s simply amazing!”
“So, the concubine also know the reason why you can’t have children anymore in these years?” Bai Zhi asked.
Meng Xuanling’s calm face finally changed: “What did you say?”
It seemed that she didn’t know it. Well, the poisoner was not only insidious but also very cunning.
“The concubine’s body suffered some physical weakness in the early years, which is nothing much. You only need to drink some medicine and tonic to make up for it. The Imperial Doctor said that to the concubine, right?”
Meng Xuanling nodded her head, but her original calm gaze had long been changed.
“Go on!” Meng Xuanling frowned as she tightened the grip on her handkerchief.
“The imperial doctor must have said to the concubine that when she had a cold syndrome, she was very fortunate that it was found out in time, and then you took some symptomatic medicine to break the cold. After taking the medicine, the concubine didn’t have a cold syndrome again. After checking your pulse, the Imperial Doctor didn’t detect any symptoms of cold on your body. Therefore, both you and the Imperial Doctor determined that the cold syndrome has been solved. You are secretly happy, but the treacherous tactics have been achieved.”
Meng Xuanling nodded her head: “Yes, what you said is correct. When this concubine tries to recall the situation at that time, it is the same as what you said. But now, you are saying that the Imperial Doctor made a mistake?” She was diagnosed and treated by the Imperial Doctor!
