Even though Qin An was already a well-established figure in the palace, he still couldn't help but get confused when faced with the matter of his father's life and death.
Thinking of all the past events, I couldn't help but sigh.
After Eunuch Qin got the letter, he left the palace in person.
Go straight to Dong's house.
It happened that Mr. Dong was about to go out to do some business, and he saw Eunuch Qin who was in a hurry.
She had met this Eunuch Qin several times, so she would naturally remember him.
Seeing him in such a hurry, I thought something had happened to my daughter in the palace, so I immediately stepped forward and asked.
"Why is Eunuch Qin here? But where is the young master..."
"Don't worry, madam. Everything is fine with the young master and the second princess. Something happened at my servant's house, so I asked for a letter from the young master. I also hope that Mr. Dong from the residence can go and check on the situation with my father."
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Dong's heart dropped, but she did not dare to neglect Eunuch Qin's request.
He was immediately led to the inner hall.
It just so happened that Mr. Dong did not go to the medical clinic today, but stayed at home to develop new medicines.
When he saw his sister introduced a strange face in, she looked a little surprised.
But when he saw that he had no beard on his chin, he immediately understood.
"Who is this……"
Eunuch Qin was so anxious that he didn't even wait for Mrs. Dong to introduce him and spoke immediately.
"This servant is a member of the palace. Now, thanks to the kindness of Young Master Lin, I would like to ask Second Master Dong to diagnose and treat my father."
After saying that, he handed over the souvenir.
Mr. Dong did not take Qiao, so he immediately opened the letter and read it.
Then he said to Eunuch Qin with a serious expression.
"Since it's a medical consultation, let's go quickly. The less time we waste, the more relief the patient will have."
Eunuch Qin was extremely grateful.
Although Second Master Dong went to see his father for the sake of Lin Guiren, being able to say such words could be regarded as comforting the heart of his relative.
So he hurried onto the carriage and headed all the way to the residential area to the west and south.
The second master of the Dong family travels all over the country and has seen many scenes.
He had always known that the people living in this area were poor people, so it was not like the first time he came.
There was no shock in his eyes, but this made Eunuch Qin look at him with admiration.
In fact, logically speaking, it would not be difficult for him to ask the medical officer of Tai Hospital to diagnose and treat his father.
But those medical officers were all people who would be imperial doctors in the future, and their contacts were all noble people and small masters. Naturally, they had little understanding of these poor things.
Eunuch Qin didn't want his secret to be exposed in front of others, and what he was even more afraid of was seeing the kind of disgust that once made him feel inferior.
That's why I asked Lin Wanyi and the Dong family to come here.
Seeing that the second master of the Dong family had the same expression as before, he secretly thought about it.
The house is not big, just made of wood and thatch.
There are three rooms in total. The one on the left is the small kitchen, the one on the right is probably where the children live, and the front is the main house.
As soon as they entered the door, the two of them were surprised.
For no other reason than that the room stinks a bit.
People who have been ill for a long time will have some serious diseases, they all know this.
But in a situation like this, it seems that few people take care of it carefully.
Eunuch Qin suddenly felt angry in his heart, but considering that the second master of the Dong family was still nearby, he suppressed the anger and did not let it out.
He said apologetically to the second master of the Dong family.
"Thank you, Master."
"Eunuch Qin, you're welcome."
The room is not big, and you can see someone lying in the corner at a glance.
There was not much cotton wool left in the quilt covering me, and the pudding was also made from left to right.
It’s not surprising that poor families have quilts like this.
But the stains on it looked like they hadn't been touched for many days. Thinking of this, his eyes filled with anger.
He rushed forward immediately.
I saw the person lying on the bed, his expression already dark and unclear.
More air out, less air in.
There was a broken bowl placed next to it. The water in it had some scum in it. I don’t know how long it had been there.
The smell came from under the quilt.
Eunuch Qin didn't even need to lift the quilt to look, he knew it was a mess.
"Damn it, Cai's daughter did this to my father. She is really..."
The curse words came to his mouth, but he still swallowed them back.
Now is not a good time to curse, it is more important to see a doctor.
He immediately gave up his seat and said apologetically.
"Please don't be dissatisfied, Second Master, and see my father first."
"Um."
The second grandfather of the Dong family is not a man of many words, but looking at the situation in front of him, he is afraid that there is nothing he can do to save the situation.
But I still checked my pulse carefully.
After a moment, he said with a solemn expression.
"My condolences, Eunuch Qin. Your Majesty, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive today."
As soon as these words came out, even Eunuch Qin, who was accustomed to the big world, almost couldn't stand still.
Looking at my father who was sleeping or dead on the bed, I suddenly felt sad.
"Is it true... that there is no hope at all?"
The second master of the Dong family sighed deeply, shook his head and said.
"Your Majesty has suffered from an old illness before, and he must have had a stroke before. The most important thing for a person who has suffered a stroke is to take careful care of him, but right now... when I check your Majesty's pulse, I can hardly feel his pulse.
, I think it has been more than a day or two since I was hungry and cold. So..."
His words made Eunuch Qin turn from sadness to hatred.
I wish I could kill that Cai girl with my own hands!
But at this moment, except for the two of them, there wasn't even a living thing in the room.
Even if he wanted to kill him, he couldn't find anyone to kill him.
In the end, I could only kneel down on the ground, hold my father's dry and even cold hand, and cry bitterly.
Maybe it's a flashback, maybe it's a heart-to-heart connection between father and son.
The old father of the Qin family, who had not opened his eyes for several days, slowly woke up.
"Is...is it Dalang?"
Eunuch Qin was crying sadly, but after hearing these words, he immediately raised his head and saw his father speaking with difficulty.
He immediately looked at the second master of the Dong family.
What I'm looking forward to is that maybe he will be able to regain his youth!
It's a pity, the second master of the Dong family shook his head and said bluntly.
"Eunuch Qin, please hurry up."
With this sentence, Eunuch Qin's newly ignited hope was immediately shattered.
Knowing that this was the only time the father of the Qin family had to talk to his son, the second master of the Dong family did not bother him much.
He left the house and stood waiting outside the courtyard gate.
As a doctor, he has seen many scenes of life and death.
But every time I still feel very emotional. If my medical skills were better, would I be able to save more people?
I felt sad in my heart, but there was nothing I could do.
Inside the house, the old father of the Qin family seemed to be breathing his last breath.
When he looked at Eunuch Qin, he was even a little more excited.
"I thought... thought you would never... never come back in this life."
