Furthermore, these imperial doctors often took the pulse of the nobles in the harem and prescribed prescriptions and tonics, which was a common practice.
Regardless of whether they want to protect themselves wisely or not, these imperial doctors still don't know if they can see any clues about the emperor's physical condition.
"The drug residue that His Highness mentioned last time is gone now?"
Gu Chengyu is still more inclined to think that there is something wrong with the life-extending pill he took before. Whether the life-extending pill is real or fake is not discussed for the time being, because he is afraid that there is something wrong with this life-extending pill.
The prince shook his head, "You happened to be going to Jiangnan to provide relief, so I gave it to Zhang Yuan of the Imperial Hospital. I was afraid that by the time you came back, the residue would have lost its medicinal properties."
Gu Chengyu expressed regret that he could not really find out the problem with the medicine.
"However, in recent days, my father has taken the elixir refined by Taoist Tianji, and his body has gradually recovered. Yesterday, he allowed Taoist Tianji to leave the palace and went to look for herbs to make life-extending pills."
Huh? Gu Chengyu narrowed his eyes slightly, "Have you sent someone to follow?"
Since the prince also suspected that he was in love with Taoist Tianji, Gu Chengyu stopped beating around the bush.
The prince nodded, "My father sent a personal guard to follow him, and I also sent someone to protect him secretly. After all, Taoist Priest Tianji is quite old. What should we do if something goes wrong on the road?"
Gu Cheng raised his lips and smiled. Except for being a little indecisive, the prince had all the other skills of a king. Unfortunately, sometimes even such indecisiveness can become a fatal weakness.
"My father has ordered me to handle the matter of the Chamber of Commerce. I sent officials from the Ministry of Revenue to Jiangnan a few days ago. You must have received the news. You proposed the Chamber of Commerce, and I sent officials from the Ministry of Revenue to take over.
I feel wronged to you."
As the prince spoke, he rubbed a corner of the memorial, as if he was worried.
"Your Highness is serious. What kind of grievance is this? I have already listed all the precautions and details for establishing a chamber of commerce. Please take a look at it!"
Gu Chengyu took out a memorial from his sleeve, which he had put on him before he came, in order to wait for the summons and present the memorial to the emperor or the prince.
He is not his holy mother. If someone robs him of his achievements, he still wants to help others achieve perfection.
It's because he proposed this chamber of commerce. If the official who took over the job was incompetent and messed up the affairs of the chamber of commerce, wouldn't all the energy he spent before be in vain?
Besides, these ministers in the DPRK are still waiting to see his jokes! Once the Chamber of Commerce makes mistakes, these officials will definitely put the blame on him.
After all, Xia Qing had firmly opposed the establishment of a chamber of commerce before, and when it failed, Xia Qing had more to say.
Gu Chengyu did this for his own reputation. He had no choice but to do so. Although this matter was taken over by other officials, it still had a lot to do with him.
The prince was overjoyed. He was actually very optimistic about the matter of the Chamber of Commerce. But no matter who in the court took over the matter, he felt that Gu Chengyu could not handle it properly himself.
It's a pity that his father did not allow Gu Chengyu to intervene, saying that he had other plans for Gu Chengyu.
Now that he has this memorial from Gu Chengyu, he can feel at ease. Even if the officials sent are incompetent, they can follow the contents of this memorial and they will not mess up the matter.
Gu Chengyu glanced at the prince who was meditating, and after thinking about it, he decided not to talk about the road construction for the time being.
After all, there is no benefit in saying anything now, and he really has to think carefully about things that are not beneficial.
"Your Highness! The Emperor summons Master Gu!"
Pang Chu's voice came from outside the palace. The prince frowned slightly, and then said with a smile, "Since my father has summoned you, it is inconvenient for me to stay here any longer. I will discuss matters with you tomorrow!"
Gu Chengyu stood up to say goodbye, saluted the prince, and planned to exit the palace.
"Woo!" The prince suddenly touched his chest with his left hand, his face turned pale, and his right hand holding the corner of the table began to tremble slightly.
When Gu Chengyu heard the sound, he turned around and looked back. When he saw something was wrong, he quickly stepped forward to support the prince.
"Your Highness! Are you okay?" Gu Chengyu frowned and quickly helped the helpless prince sit down.
"Come here, call the imperial doctor quickly!"
Pang Chu came in from outside the palace and was shocked when he saw the prince's pale face.
"Your Highness, what's going on?" He was so frightened that his face turned pale, and his face was instantly paler than that of the prince.
"Why are you still standing there in a daze? Go and call the imperial doctor quickly!" Seeing Pang Chu still standing there, Gu Chengyu shouted immediately.
"Come, come quickly! Go and invite envoy Zhang Yuan!"
Ignoring Pang Chu who was whirring as if the sky was falling, Gu Chengyu put his hand on the prince's pulse.
As soon as he touched it, he felt that the prince's pulse was much faster than ordinary people. When Gu Chengyu felt it carefully, the prince's pulse suddenly returned to normal.
Gu Chengyu frowned, what's going on? He immediately observed the prince's complexion carefully, and found that the prince's complexion, which was originally pale, was now a little rosy again.
There is something strange about this. How could it be possible to recover so quickly?
"Don't make a fuss. Maybe it's because I've been too busy recently, and I sometimes feel inexplicable palpitations. But I can recover after just taking a short rest. I also asked the imperial doctor to check my pulse before, and the imperial doctor only asked me to rest a lot.
, don’t overthink it! It’s just that this time it’s more serious than before!”
The prince's weak voice sounded slowly from Gu Chengyu's side. When Gu Chengyu heard this voice, he seemed to have really recovered.
"Your Highness, do you often feel palpitations?" Gu Chengyu took his pulse for a while, but felt nothing unusual.
His medical skills are not good, and when he was studying in space before, he mostly learned about pills. He still has a little understanding of pharmacology, but he only has a superficial understanding of diseases.
"It's not very often, it just hurts once every few days. After a while, it returns to normal."
The prince has fully recovered now, but he still remembers the pain of the palpitations just now.
Gu Chengyu nodded. He was not proficient in medical skills, but he could still ask Fourth Brother and Li Langzhong.
Previously, Li Langzhong planned to take the Yao family back to his hometown, but his fourth brother persuaded him not to do so.
Even Li Langzhong's daughter and son-in-law came to the capital to settle down, so there was nothing left in Jingyuan Prefecture that Li Langzhong could miss.
So Li Langzhong stayed in the medical clinic to help Gu Chengchi. Now the business of the medical clinic was good, and naturally there was a shortage of doctors, so it was just right for Li Langzhong to stay.
Dr. Li's medical skills were good, and Gu Chengyu thought that he might gain something from asking Mr. Li.
Pang Chu quickly brought Zhang Yuan envoy into the palace. The result was just as the imperial doctor said before, it was still caused by overexertion.
Gu Chengyu stood up and said goodbye, then followed Xiao Quanzi and walked towards Chengqian Palace.
At Shen Shi, a carriage slowly passed through the noisy downtown and finally turned into a quiet alley.
The driver of the carriage shook his whip and began to speed up.
When the carriage was approaching the gate of Gu's house, suddenly a man on horseback quickly chased after him.
When the man on the horse saw that the carriage was just ahead, he breathed a sigh of relief. He jumped up and got on the carriage.
"Young Master! You have to think about the consequences of doing this. I can't let you ruin my master's plan. You'd better go back with me!"
