When Bai Haitang saw the prince, he did not shy away or bow his head.
It’s similar to what I saw in Zhang’s Mansion, but it looks older. It seems that I have a lot of things to worry about and I haven’t taken good care of it. It doesn’t necessarily mean that men are resisting aging.
The prince looked at the jade pendant again. It was indeed the young prince's. There were only three pieces of this jade pendant in the whole prince's palace, one for the prince, one for the young prince's egret, and one for the princess's kite. Each one had slightly different patterns engraved on it.
"Are you a maid?" the prince asked.
When he asked this question, it depended on the other party's answer. Zilu would not give such an important jade pendant to a maid casually. Therefore, the prince concluded that she was either not a maid or an ordinary maid.
This jade pendant can be used everywhere in the prince's palace except the forbidden areas.
If she wasn't someone she could trust, Zilu wouldn't give it to her. Let's see if she is honest or perfunctory?
"At least now that I'm wearing a maid's clothes, the prince will treat me as a maid." Haitang thought for a while and said.
In this way, he did not reveal his identity and answered the questions sincerely.
"Since you are here to see a doctor for me, and the knife was held on your neck just now, why didn't you call for help?" the prince asked again.
"If you are destined to not be able to see a doctor for the prince, it will be death to urinate, and it will be death to be calm and calm. Which one would the prince choose?" Haitang asked in return.
"Then please give me a medical checkup." The prince was quite satisfied with her answer. This was not something an ordinary maid could say, nor was it something a maid could have the knowledge and quality to do.
The three of them walked into the pavilion, which was lit with incense. Haitang sniffed it and found that it was sandalwood. Sandalwood can calm people's hearts and help them sleep. Is the prince's illness related to sleep?
Haitang has a general direction. Although it is an inference, it will be confirmed one by one.
There was a medicine bowl on the mahogany carved table next to the golden soft couch, and the remaining half of the bowl of medicine was not finished by the prince. Haitang could smell the smell of lily, wolfberry, and Ganoderma lucidum.
These are also helpful for sleep, further confirming Haitang's idea.
There were more medicinal smells in the medicine bowl that Haitang couldn't smell. They were probably rare and high-end medicinal materials used by princes and nobles.
After the prince lay down, he stretched out his hand and asked Haitang to take his pulse.
Haitang can only touch the aorta on her neck, and the pulse on her wrist. She really can't guarantee that she will feel it right at once. If she finds the wrong place, even if she finds it with one finger, the prince and the butler can tell that she
All previous efforts were wasted.
"Your Majesty, please tell me your symptoms yourself," Haitang said.
"Doesn't a doctor take the pulse and ask questions?" the chief steward asked.
"May I ask the chief steward, has the doctor who cut the prince's pulse ever cured the prince's illness?" Haitang asked in return.
This was indeed the case, and the butler was speechless for a while.
"If you don't take the pulse, how can you know the condition? Doctors pay attention to looking, smelling, asking, and feeling. Isn't this the same as taking the pulse?" The chief steward asked again.
Haitang could see that he was quite knowledgeable about medicine.
Bai Haitang, who majored in science, has always found the Chinese medicine method of checking the pulse to be a bit ridiculous. What can be determined from the pulse alone? She believes more in Western medicine.
Western medicine doctors look at various laboratory tests and reports. This kind of data is the most reliable. But now, Bai Haitang can't explain the principles of Western medicine to the big housekeeper, not to mention he is not a Western medicine doctor...
"Extreme diseases have their own extraordinary cures," Haitang replied.
"Then I'll wait and see." The chief steward has no confidence in Haitang at all, but only has a slim hope.
