"Master, please help me take a look at this." Ying Zheng stopped talking about the battle between Qin and Zhao, and pointed to the small wooden box on the table.
Gu Xun's eyes also turned to the wooden box that he had noticed for a long time.
The scent of medicine that he smelled when he came in came from this box.
Without getting up, Gu Xun reached out and made a move, and the wooden box immediately flew into his hand automatically.
Zhao Gao's face turned dark again.
He just tried to block Gu Xun's energy, and then...
Then it hinders loneliness.
It was obvious that he was several times closer to the wooden box than Gu Xun, but his out-of-body zhenqi was weaker than the opponent's... I don't know how many times, and it collapsed at the first touch without even causing a ripple.
So much so that Ying Zheng, who is a novice in martial arts, didn't even notice this unequal competition... let's call it a competition.
Gu Xun was too lazy to pay attention to Zhao Gao's little move, and opened the wooden box that fell into his hand. What he saw was a pill that was about the size of a thumb.
He picked up the pill and brought it to his nose and smelled it carefully. Gu Xun asked without raising his head, "Is your Majesty feeling unwell?"
Judging from the complexion, he didn't notice any major problems with Ying Zheng. As for the minor problems... As a king who has many things to do, these minor problems are inevitable and there is nothing easy to cure.
"Yeah." Ying Zheng nodded slightly, "I have been having headaches lately."
At this time, Gu Xun gently took a small part of the pill and filled it into his mouth without swallowing it. At the same time, he raised his head and asked again:
"Can it be convenient for me to show it to Your Majesty?"
Ying Zheng did not refuse, "I would like to ask, Imperial Master."
Zhao Gao was hesitant to speak, but since his master had already spoken, he would not go forward and say inappropriate words without a look.
Gu Xun put down the medicine box, ducked directly to Ying Zheng's side, and put one hand on the pulse of his wrist.
"The pill taken just now, the technique is not that of an ordinary doctor... Is it the work of the Yin Yang family?"
"The Imperial Master is worthy of the name of a miracle doctor. This is indeed a pill refined by Yun Zhongjun, the Minister of Finance of the Yin Yang Family."
Gu Xun then asked, "People from Tai Hospital should have already diagnosed and treated His Majesty. What was the result?"
"Huangshan has prescribed several medicines for me, but the effect is mediocre. It can neither prevent another attack nor effectively relieve the headache when it occurs." Ying Zheng calmly stated his condition.
"Later, the Moon God Protector told the crowd that the pills from the Yin Yang Family can relieve symptoms, and offered a few pills."
"Has Your Majesty already used this medicine?" Gu Xun opened his hand to feel the pulse.
"I haven't taken it yet." Ying Zheng shook his head slightly, "The Imperial Hospital has done detailed tests and basically confirmed that this medicine has no harm. However, the Imperial Physician Ling Huangshan still tried his best to dissuade me from taking the medicine first and wait for the Imperial Master to come back before making a diagnosis.
."
Zhao Gao quickly interrupted and asked, "Master Imperial Master, what's wrong with this medicine?"
Gu Xun did not answer immediately, but returned to his seat and sat down.
"It's medicine that's three parts poisonous. There's basically no medicine that's good." Gu Xun first said something that made Zhao Gao look ugly and secretly happy in his heart, but what he said immediately after made him unhappy again.
"But your Majesty can take this medicine."
Zhao Gao hurriedly asked, "Can the Imperial Master be sure that this medicine will not harm your Majesty's body?"
"There's no problem." Gu Xun emphasized, "But the only function of this medicine is to relieve pain. It can only be used to relieve temporary needs, and it treats the symptoms but not the root cause."
"It can be used, but remember not to take it frequently."
Ying Zheng frowned at this time and asked, "What does the Imperial Master mean?"
"It's best to use it only when you can't stand it anymore."
Zhao Gao frowned and asked coldly, "Your Majesty's words don't sound like there is no problem."
Gu Xun spread his hands and explained, "Effective analgesics are basically addictive. Excessive use can cause drug dependence and may aggravate symptoms."
"But this is not a problem with the medicine. There is no solution, unless you switch to other medicines with mild effects."
"The Imperial Master doesn't have a better way?" Ying Zheng's face changed a little at this time and became a little ugly.
This headache is causing him a lot of trouble. If there is no good treatment plan, the trouble will be huge...even for him, it is much more troublesome than a famous enemy general like Li Mu.
Gu Xun shook his head, "As for analgesics, I don't have a better way."
He is just a doctor and cannot change the basic properties of the medicine.
However, Gu Xun still gave Ying Zheng some good news:
"There is no way to cure this headache, but I'm afraid you won't take it, Your Majesty."
"What can we do?" Ying Zheng asked solemnly.
"Ensure rest." Gu Xun replied, "This is the basic prerequisite for treatment."
"Your Majesty, you should often stay up late to deal with government affairs, and have to get up early in the morning to go to court. You are probably just as busy during the day, and you don't have enough time to rest, right?"
"..." Ying Zheng remained silent, apparently acquiescing.
Gu Xunyi sighed, "Qi deficiency, physical weakness, energy deficiency, and mental failure. These minor problems that don't matter in theory are the causes of your headache. If you don't solve it, there will be no cure."
"The prescription prescribed by Taiyuan Hospital may not be effective, but... the effect may be destroyed."
"The Imperial Master should understand that this is simply impossible." After hearing this, Ying Zheng refused as expected.
"The Imperial Master may have other methods."
Gu Xun shook his head regretfully, "There is no way, a doctor is just a doctor after all."
"I will prescribe a few more prescriptions for you, Your Majesty. One is for daily use to reduce the frequency of headache attacks. One is for analgesics to be taken when the headache is not severe. The other is for Yin Yang Family.
A powerful analgesic that you take on a rotational basis."
Ying Zheng's brows were furrowed, and his face was unusually gloomy.
With his willpower, enduring the pain is not a problem. The problem is that in that situation, he must be unable to concentrate and cannot handle government affairs at all.
So he had to take analgesics to relieve the pain.
But...
"Is the addiction mentioned by the Imperial Master serious?" It involves his own health, and it also involves his governance of the country. Yingzheng cannot be careless.
Gu Xun pondered for a moment and then comforted him, "Your Majesty, don't worry too much. As long as you take the medicine properly, this symptomatic situation can last for a long time, and it will not cause additional harm to Your Majesty."
Ying Zheng did not feel relaxed at all because of Gu Xun's words. As a king, theoretically speaking, he should not touch drugs that have clear side effects, even if they seem to be harmless. But... there is no way.
Ah.
"How long can I hold on?"
"Probably... there will be no problem for more than ten years. If it takes longer, the effect of the medicine will become worse and worse. Your Majesty, your symptoms will become more and more frequent, and it will be unsustainable."
"Will the disease get worse?" Zhao Gao caught the important point and couldn't help but ask for his master.
"Obviously." Gu Xun shrugged, "I have just mentioned the cause of the disease. If Your Majesty does not rest, your body will become weaker and the symptoms will become more severe."
