“Xiaoqian, Xiaoqian, what’s happened to you?” The Empress reached out to lift the coat covering Xiaoqian.
Jiang Ning stopped her: “It’s windy outside, let’s talk inside.”
The Empress didn’t say anything and let the nanny take Xiaoqian and hold him inside the room.
Xiaoman pushed Jiang Ning to follow them inside.
There was a charcoal fire in the room, and it was warm.
When the nanny took off Xiaoqian’s coat, she saw that, although his energy level seed low, he had been protected well. The Empress’s expression softened a bit.
She touched Xiaoqian’s forehead: “It doesn’t seem too hot.”
“His fever is gradually receding,” Jiang Ning said. “It’s all my fault for not taking better care of him, causing the emperor’s eldest grandson to suffer.”
Hearing that, the Empress didn’t scold her.
“Children getting sick is unavoidable. Both of your children got sick too, right?”
“Yes, first Wenzan, then he passed it on to Lingzi and then to the emperor’s eldest grandson.”
“The emperor’s eldest grandson is a few years older and can tell us if he’s feeling unwell. But the younger two can’t even express where they’re uncomfortable. Isn’t that heartbreaking?” The Empress sighed. “By all accounts, you’re already handling the hard work of taking care of several children, and I shouldn’t bla you.”
“It’s my fault, Your Highness. Please punish .”
“Enough.” The Empress waved her hand. “Soone, summon the Imperial Physician to co and examine the emperor’s eldest grandson and find out what’s going on.”
When the Imperial Physician arrived, he checked Xiaoqian’s pulse and said, “It’s nothing serious, just take a few doses of dicine and have a good sweat.” “I heard that the child also has vomiting and diarrhea?”
“Is that so?” The Imperial Physician hurriedly took the pulse again.
The Empress beca angry when she saw this: “You quack, if I hadn’t ntioned it, you wouldn’t have even diagnosed it?”
“I am guilty,” the Imperial Physician raised his sleeve to wipe sweat.
Jiang Ning watched with cold eyes, thinking that the Imperial Physician’s dical skills were really inadequate.
Much worse than the two doctors she raised.
The two doctors she raised were originally experts in pediatrics. Jiang Ning would often send them out to treat a large number of commoners, for which she would pay the fees.
This also allowed the two doctors to accumulate a wealth of experience.
As for the doctors in the palace, most of them were taught by ntors or passed down from father to son, and they had studied dicine for many years. But their actual clinical experience was pitiful.
They only had theoretical knowledge.
After all, there were only a few masters in the palace, mostly won.
It would be strange if they were good at treating children.
The two doctors from the Prince of Yu’s residence diagnosed Wenzan’s illness as a cold complicated with gastroenteritis within minutes and treated it accordingly. This Imperial Physician, on the other hand, dawdled for a long ti without even understanding the child’s condition before attempting to prescribe dication.
Not only was the Empress angry, Jiang Ning also wanted to kick him out.
After being scolded by the Empress, the Imperial Physician anxiously examined Xiaoqian’s pulse again for a while and said a lot before going to write a prescription.
Having completed the prescription, the Empress ordered soone to prepare the dicine.
“Wait,” Jiang Ning spoke up. “Let see the prescription.”
She had been waiting for this mont the entire ti she was here.
The Empress looked at her and didn’t say anything.
After looking at the prescription, Jiang Ning frowned. “This prescription is not good enough.”
The Imperial Physician secretly curled his lips, thinking: What would a woman know about this?
However, he dared not express his thoughts.
Jiang Ning glanced at him: “Though I may not understand dicine, I’ve seen prescriptions written by the doctors in my mansion. I’d say their prescriptions are at least 250 tis better than this.”
Imperial Physician:
Jiang Ning extended her hand: “Xiaoman.”
Xiaoman imdiately took a crumpled piece of paper from her pocket, unfolded it, and handed it to her.
Jiang Ning glanced at it and handed it to the Imperial Physician: “Why don’t you take a look at this prescription, sir?”
