Chapter 567 The Suspicious Doctor, Xie Ying Takes Action
When the two imperial physicians were in the palace, they witnessed the changes in the two little princes with their own eyes.
The two of them had to admire Xie Ying, the lucky star.
But Tu Yong was seriously injured this time, and it was unknown whether Xie Ying's blessing would still be useful.
The two of them sighed inwardly and quickly came up with a prescription. Then one of them went to get the medicine while the other gave Tu Yong acupuncture.
Xie Ying stayed by his side, paying close attention to the changes in Tu Yong's breathing and where the imperial physician inserted the needles.
After she came to this world, she also read a lot of medical books. Even though she didn't have the ability to prescribe medicine for people, she already remembered all the acupuncture points in the human body clearly.
If the imperial physician gave the wrong injection, she would be able to discover it in time.
Tu Jiaojiao also looked at the imperial physician.
Perhaps the gazes of the two men made the imperial physician feel very pressured, so he was very careful throughout the whole process.
After the acupuncture, he pierced Tu Yong's fingertip and squeezed out some blood.
Xie Ying sensed the changes in Tu Yong's breath and discovered that this imperial physician was indeed quite capable. After acupuncture and bloodletting, Tu Yong's breath actually became stronger.
At this time, another imperial physician brought the boiled medicine. Tu Jiaojiao immediately took it, pried open Tu Yong's mouth, and fed the medicine in with a spoon.
After Tu Yong drank the medicine, the two imperial doctors stayed on duty for another half an hour, took Tu Yong's pulse again, and then went to rest.
They had been traveling for the past two days and were already exhausted. If they didn't rest now, they would not be able to hold on.
Xie Ying asked Lu Xuan to rest as well, while she continued to guard.
Lu Xuan was also very tired, so he did not refuse and quickly left.
When only the unconscious Tu Yong, Tu Jiaojiao, and Xie Ying were left in the room, Xie Ying whispered to Tu Jiaojiao, "Mom, who was the doctor who treated Grandpa before? Who else has been to see him since he was injured?"
Tu Jiaojiao looked at her in surprise and asked in a low voice: "Yingying, did you discover something?"
Xie Ying didn't answer but asked, "Mom, do you know how Grandpa got injured? How could he be injured like this? Has the person who stabbed Grandpa been caught?"
Tu Jiaojiao's expression instantly turned very ugly: "The person who did this was very cunning and a master. He hid himself immediately after he succeeded.
But your grandfather left a letter in advance, saying that if anything happened to him, it would definitely be related to Situ Ming.
Duke Dingguo has arrested Situ Ming, but he has always denied it and said that the letter was deliberately forged.
Although Duke Dingguo has him imprisoned, that letter is not irrefutable evidence. The truth will only be known when your grandfather wakes up."
At this point, she couldn't help but worry, "Yingying, will your grandfather be able to wake up?"
Xie Ying nodded: "Of course, but I need to see the doctor who treated the injury first."
Tu Jiaojiao immediately arranged for someone to invite the doctor.
However, she told Xie Ying with a serious expression: "That man is the most famous doctor in Hejian Prefecture and has been there for many years. If he really has a problem, it would be terrible."
Xie Ying frowned when she heard this. She thought for a moment and then quickly asked, "How much does mother know about that person?"
Tu Jiaojiao was stunned at first, and then told Xie Ying all the information she knew.
The doctor's surname was He. He was a skilled doctor, but he had a miserable life.
When he was young, his parents and pregnant newlywed wife were killed by the enemy. He hated the enemy because of this. Later, he practiced medicine hard and continued to treat the wounds of officers, soldiers and civilians.
As he treated more and more people, his medical skills became more and more sophisticated.
With his medical skills, he could leave Hejian Prefecture and go to other prefectures or even the capital to practice medicine, and live a stable life from then on.
But he was always unwilling to leave Hejian Prefecture.
Later he married his second wife and taught her medicine. The two lived in harmony and loved each other very much.
Unfortunately, his wife fell ill and died less than five years after giving birth to their son.
Doctor He raised his son alone and never remarried. Because his son was not particularly gifted in medicine, Doctor He took on over a dozen apprentices, imparting his skills to them without reservation.
Such a doctor is highly respected in Hejian Prefecture. Tu Jiaojiao couldn't even imagine what terrible consequences would be caused if there was a problem with the other party!
Xie Ying also felt that the situation was a bit tricky.
Moreover, this Doctor He sounds like a saintly father. Such a person should not harm Tu Yong.
But her perception couldn't be wrong. Tu Yong was poisoned again two days ago. If the person who did it wasn't Doctor He, with his medical skills, it would be impossible for him to be unaware of it.
So either Dr. He did it himself, or someone else did it, but Dr. He concealed the matter.
No matter which one it is, it means there is something wrong with this person!
Tu Jiaojiao worriedly warned Xie Ying, "Yingying, even if you find something wrong with him later, don't expose him directly, understand?"
Doctor He was extremely prestigious in Hejian Prefecture. She was worried that if Xie Ying suddenly exposed this person, it would cause public outrage, and even the soldiers in the army would be dissatisfied!
After all, Doctor He has been here for many years and has treated too many civilians and soldiers. The prestige he has accumulated over the years is definitely not comparable to Xie Ying's.
Neither can she or Xie Xiu.
Xie Ying held Tu Jiaojiao's hand soothingly: "Don't worry, I'm not that stupid."
The two waited for a while, and Dr. He finally arrived.
Xie Ying did not sense the scent of the poisonous insect on him, but the man was full of the smell of medicine. He looked easy-going and elegant, and indeed looked like a highly respected doctor.
So her attitude was very polite. She just asked about Tu Yong's injuries briefly, asked Doctor He to check Tu Yong's pulse, asked about Tu Yong's current condition and how long it would take for him to wake up, and then asked him to leave.
Tu Jiaojiao waited until the man walked away before asking Xie Ying in a low voice, "Is there something wrong with him?"
Xie Ying raised her lips in sarcasm. "He could see that Grandfather's condition was improving, which shows that his medical skills are good. So, it's impossible that he didn't notice when Grandfather was attacked again two days ago."
"Two days ago..." Tu Jiaojiao narrowed her eyes dangerously, "He did say that your grandfather's condition is worsening and there's probably no cure."
Xie Ying sneered: "Grandfather's condition suddenly worsened. Obviously something happened. He has been practicing medicine for many years, so it is impossible for him not to have thought of it."
Tu Jiaojiao was puzzled: "But your grandfather has no grudge against him, why would he do this?"
"We'll know soon enough."
Xie Ying said this meaningfully, then placed her small hand on the wound on Tu Yong's abdomen and used her special powers to heal him.
She had asked Xiangxiang to hide on Doctor He, and she would soon get the answer to why this man attacked Tu Yong.
But before that, she had to help Tu Yong heal his injuries first.
Xie Ying calmly activated her special abilities while asking Tu Jiaojiao, "Mother, what do you think of Duke Dingguo?"
