Chapter 1381: Chapter 1381: Thought to Be a Mental Illness
Shu Yuâs excessive attention to Young Master Tan made Mrs. Tan a bit puzzled, and she softly asked, âMonarch Lu Xiang, is something amiss?â
Shu Yu snapped out of her thoughts, shook her head and said, âNo, I just wanted to ask, has there been any change in Young Master Tan after being poisoned?â
Change?
Before Mrs. Tan could answer, Old Doctor Zhao, who was washing his hands, said, âIt should be a loss of appetite, he feels nauseated at the sight of food and doesnât want to eat. But when he eats, he doesnât vomit it out, and thatâs how he maintains his life.â
Mrs. Tan nodded repeatedly, âYes, yes, thatâs exactly it.â
She now believed that the person in front of her was a genuinely skilled doctor. Previously, other doctors would ask them specific symptoms and deduce what illness it was based on their answers.
But Doctor Zhao in front of her, after feeling the pulse, directly told it.
She recalled Young Master Tanâs situation earlier, âTwo years ago he participated in the imperial examinations, and he failed. After returning, he ate less. Initially, we thought he was in a bad mood because he didnât pass, leading to a poor appetite. Who knew that the situation worsened, and doctors were consulted, but they couldnât find anything, only saying it should be a heart disease.â
However, her son had at least traveled far with Lord and had exposure, how could he have developed such a severe heart disease from just failing once?
Mrs. Tan did not believe her sonâs tolerance was so poor. She thought Young Master Tan just couldnât think straight for a moment and let him go out and play for a while, finding something to do for him.
But the result was still the same, Mrs. Tan had to accept that Young Master Tan indeed developed a heart disease.
However, now the doctor tells her that it was poisoning and not a disease, and she suddenly didnât know whether to be happy or sad.
Old Doctor Zhao nodded while listening, âItâs not surprising that other doctors couldnât see it, this poison is indeed rare. Not to mention the ordinary doctors, even the Imperial Physicians in the palace may not have seen it. Iâve traveled north and south for many years and have seen it before, so Iâm certain.â
Old Master Tan and Mrs. Tan felt somewhat relieved hearing this.
âSo Elder Zhao, can we detoxify my son now? You previously mentioned using poison to counter poison, do we really have to use those poisons? Wouldnât that be too, too⊠toxic?â
Thinking about the long list of poisons Old Doctor Zhao had previously mentioned, Old Master Tan couldnât help but shiver, feeling slightly cold all over.
Old Doctor Zhao waved his hand, âAlthough there are many things, the amount of each is small, itâs not that toxic. But detoxification canât be done now, your sonâs health is quite deteriorated, and the pain from using poison to counter poison requires enough strength to endure. I need to first help him adjust his body, and start in half a month. During this time, you just need to prepare the medicinal materials listed on the list I gave.â
âOkay, okay, Elder Zhao just give the orders, and we will comply.â
Old Doctor Zhao nodded and added, âBy the way, I only handle the detoxification, other matters you need to manage yourself. Especially finding the culprit who poisoned, I donât want someone interfering midway through the detoxification process.â
Old Master Tan, his expression serious, solemnly said, âRest assured, Elder Zhao, such an incident will not occur again, I will promptly find the one who poisoned.â
After a pause, he asked, âI wonder if Elder Zhao could help us find where this poison was administered?â
âCanât find it, you know. I said it was poisoning the first time I felt Young Master Tanâs pulse, and if you didnât catch the person right away, they would have certainly destroyed the evidence.â
