Chapter 316 Pulse Case Confusion

“I don’t know whether Xiaoyu is having a good life or not, after returning to Lieyun. This little guy did not even send a letter back.”

In fact, Lin Mengya knew that Xiaoyu had just returned to Lie Yun for a short while.

His situation was unstable, so he did not write to her.

As always, this little guy did not like to worry her.

“Master, the young master will ask someone to send you a letter, but now is not the right time. The young master did so, only because he did not want you to worry.”

Of course, Baisu was aware of the feelings between her master and the young master. After the young master went back, he would have to experience a bloody fight.

But no matter what, Steward Lie and the others would protect the young master with their lives.

“Forget it, I am just too anxious. We are overwhelmed here. If Xiaoyu knows about our situation, he will also worry about us. Let’s go, the Court of Imperial Physicians must be looking forward to meet us.”

It was already the fifth day of the month, and the Court of Imperial Physicians would have started their work already.

Although the imperial physicians did not need to attend the imperial court meeting, they needed to go to work early because of the style of working of the Court of Imperial Physicians. In the morning, the Chief Director would issue instructions, and seminars to discuss the situations in the palace would also be held.

However, everyone just dropped everything, and looked toward the gate of the Court of Imperial Physicians, this morning.

Finally, a pair of small hands gently pushed open the door. Subsequently, two beautiful figures appeared in front of them.

“Good morning, Your Highness.”

At first, Su Tong knelt to Lin Mengya, and then all the other imperial physicians of the Court of Imperial Physicians followed. Instantly, she asked Baisu to help Chief Director Su to rise.

“We are all acquaintances. Please do not be so courteous. All of you, please get up.”

Although she was smiling in the early morning, everyone knew that there was an unshakable force hidden underneath the seemingly careless, beautiful face.

“The princess is approachable, but rules cannot be ignored. In the future, the whole Court of Imperial Physicians will still need to rely on Princess Yu.”

They must have been seriously terrified of Long Tianyu. In the Court of Imperial Physicians, the previous condescending attitude toward Lin Mengya was no longer apparent. Previously, they always treated her without any proper respect, but now even Imperial Physician Jiang had to grit his teeth and bear with the current situation.

Now Lin Mengya became more and more curious to find out what Long Tianyu had done, to get such a good effect.

“Chief Director Su, you are flattering me. Please.”

She did not want to stand in the yard and exchange such extremely courteous yet fake words with them anymore.

Lin Mengya was the first to return to her small house, and was somewhat surprised to find a brown wooden box placed on the table, where she usually dispensed medicines and wrote her prescriptions.

“This is—”

Lin Mengya pretending to be surprised, looked at Chief Director Su, but the old man only looked guilty, and cupping his fists, said,

“Princess Yu, this is the pulse case that I should have shown you last time. This is related to the health of the emperor, and no one except myself, has the right to take it out. So, your important matter was delayed. I am guilty. Please punish me.”

Whenever any terrible results came out, he quickly blamed others for the problem, but at last, he was willing to shoulder the responsibilities. This made Lin Mengya lose her reasons to reproach him.

“Master Su, don’t say that. It’s my fault because I was a little anxious. I’ll ask you for some advice, later.”

Naturally, Lin Mengya clearly knew what Su Tong meant. With merely a few words, the “old fox” managed to extricate himself from any trouble, totally. Immediately, Su Tong extended his great gratitude and then left to continue his work. Lin Mengya did not look at the people present. Instead, she opened the exquisite box and took out the folder from the pulse case.

Every detail of the emperor’s pulse case was recorded meticulously. Of course, there were also notes and some other confusing records about the emperor’s pulse, made by the physicians.

She looked at them carefully and frowned slightly.

The emperor seemed to have a chronic disease, which made him much weaker than before, as he aged, but she found some clues from two sections.

One was the so-called chronic disease. It was said that he had been wounded by an arrow when he was young and nearly died, when he was not treated in time.

The wound was in his chest and had damaged his heart and lung, and so this old injury was still present today.

The other was that the emperor was very sick now, per the case that was on record. According to the pulse case, the emperor had a hangover in his sleeping palace a year ago, but the eunuchs and palace maids taking care of him did not notice it, and so the emperor caught a cold, which caused pneumonia and then led to the recurrence of his old disease.

Lin Mengya put away the folder of the pulse case, but was immersed in her thoughts.

She heard Long Tianyu mentioning that he and his brothers had been strictly managed and trained by the emperor since their childhood; so they had superb martial arts and were quite knowledgeable, and the emperor also founded the kingdom by using his skills. A person who had been practicing martial arts should be much stronger than ordinary people.

Besides, the emperor was only a youth of 18 to 19 when he was wounded. At that time, he was quite energetic and should have had a strong resilience and ability to recover quickly,

How could he have had such a serious sequela after a mere arrow wound?

It was easy to catch a cold after being drunk, but the emperor had kept exercising, even in his middle age.

She remembered that the old supervisor of the dormitory of the medical school liked to sneak into the flower garden to sleep on the stone bench, each time after he drank.

It was said that the old man persisted in exercising every day, and so he rarely caught colds.

So, how could a person who was in good physical shape become unconscious due to these two small reasons? She did not know if the physicians of the Court of Imperial Physicians were all quacks, or that they thought that no one would let them take responsibility if they did so.

“Master, breakfast is ready. Continue to read it after eating.”

She looked up and saw Bai Su bringing a mahogany food container over.

Lin Mengya nodded, gingerly folded the folder of the emperor’s pulse case, put it in the wooden box again, and then solemnly placed the box in the medicine cabinet behind her.

She had scanned it with the Shennong system, many prescriptions were provided, and the system would analyze them automatically. After her meal, she estimated that she would get the result.

The breakfast was simple: millet porridge, boiled eggs, and a few dishes of popular snacks.

Lin Mengya was immersed in the analysis of the emperor’s pulse case and was a bit absent-minded.

“Hey, master, stop dreaming. Could you eat first, please?”

Baisu was puzzled by her master. “Master is usually shrewd, but how is it that she becomes absent minded when she comes across diagnosis of diseases and sees all kinds of medicines? Yes, a workaholic! Master did say so.

“I don’t know if this type of disease can be treated.”

“Oh, sorry.”

Lin Mengya regained her consciousness and lowered her head to drink the rice porridge in her bowl.

“By the way, when you went to the imperial kitchen to get breakfast, did anyone cause any trouble to you? Besides, have you seen the tenth prince? How is his condition?”

Bai Su thought about it and said,

“No, the staff of the imperial kitchen were very kind to me. There was nothing wrong with the food they prepared for the tenth prince. It seems that the whole palace has been very careful about the prince’s diet since the incident.”

Lin Mengya finally felt relieved. Now, there had been a lot of trouble, both inside and outside the imperial court, because of the tenth prince’s affair. If something bad happened to the prince at this time, the queen would have a hard time.

After having breakfast, Lin Mengya thought of the flower and plant research she had not finished.

After dispensing a few more herbs, she asked Baisu to boil the mixture. After cooling down the medicine, she poured it on the ground. Fortunately, no one in the Court of Imperial Physicians dared to come out to stop or ask her what she was doing.

Who knew if this Princess Yu would have any further moves?

With the Shennong System, she could get the information at a fast rate. Only within the time of eating a meal did the pulse case get all the detailed information about the prescriptions and diseases of the patient.

After comparing all the prescriptions, Lin Mengya suddenly found something: All the prescriptions were more or less laced with antidotes.

She caught a glimpse of the group of “young and old foxes”. “Did these people already know that the emperor’s disease is not that simple?

“But due to some taboo, did they try to secretly remove the emperor’s poison? Were they afraid that the empress and the crown prince might seek revenge?”

She thought about it carefully and then denied it. “If they are really afraid of the empress and the crown prince, they should be on their side. “And they would not have secretly worked out ways to remove the emperor’s poison.”

Her look turned from those imperial physicians to the yard where the medical soup was being poured. She felt that she had fallen into a bigger mess.

It seemed that she needed to have a good talk with someone who understood the situation.

When the situation Lin Mengya encountered became tricky, because of all kinds of abnormalities, there was a new wave of trouble at the deserted Prince Yu’s Mansion.

Early in the morning, Long Tianyu, who was about to leave his mansion, was asked by Aunt Jingyue serving Concubine De, to go to the Art Courtyard.

As he stared at the thinner figure in front of him, Long Tianyu had a sudden rush of suspicion. “Similar, very similar.” As always, he could not tell the Aunt Jingyue before him from the late Aunt Jinyue.

“Do they resemble each other only because they spent a lot of time working together?”

After Lin Mengya was trapped in the palace, he who had been used to the life of Prince Yu’s Mansion, felt that the mansion was so deserted.

It seemed that the entire mansion and his heart had become empty overnight.

“Aunt, why is my mother asking for me?”

The low but soft address of “Aunt” gave Jingyue a small shudder.

Jingyue turned around, lowered her head, and answered respectfully,

“Prince, you will know when you get there, but—I have to say that the madam is your biological mother after all. As for some things, you might as well satisfy the madam’s wishes to avoid trouble.

Her voice was strange, husky, and unpleasant to the ear.
