The maidservant followed the order immediately, but she still came back after a quarter of an hour: "Princess… …"
Nannuo Yao was sitting like a dead person, her black eyes fell on the medicine bowl. Her eyes were filled sadness, it looked completely different to her usual arrogant eyes.
The maidservant noticed that Nannuo Yao has no intention to move, but she didn't try to remind her. She stayed kneeling in front of her as if she wasn't tired.
Time passed by, the medicine in the maidservant's hand became cold. The maidservant knelt for a long period of time. Her hands began shaking and her face became pale.
Nannuo Yao looked at the maidservant indifferently, but she no longer embarrassed her. She stretched out her hand and took the medicine bowl. She didn't bother to care about the coldness of the medicine. She just closed her eyes and drank it.
Nannuo Yao's mouth was filled with a bitter taste. She wanted to vomit the medicine, but she knew she must take this medicine. If she spits this out, she has to drink another bowl.
After a column of incense, Nannuo Yao's face became pale. Her body started sweating. And she couldn't help but curled up her body in pain: "Ah… … It hurts, it hurts."
Nannuo Yao rolled to her bed while holding her stomach. She lifted her chin and said with difficulty: "You hurry and find a doctor, go!"
"Princess, the time is late to look for a doctor, please wait a bit more." The maidservant didn't move. Nannuo Yao shouted while in tears: "I don't care. Go now, go and find a doctor."
However, no matter how much Nannuo Yao shouted, the maidservant didn't move until she saw blood on the bed sheet. The maidservant run outside while saying: "Princess, I'm going to find a doctor, just hold on."
Imperial doctor, imperial doctor… …
Finding an imperial doctor is not their main goal. They just want people to know that Nannuo Yao is indeed sick and need a doctor. It's best if there is no female doctor.
In the Lingyun Courtyard, there was a doctor stationed. The maidservant soon came with a white-haired old doctor.
The old doctor hasn't entered the house, but he could hear Nannuo Yao's screaming. The old doctor has no choice but to speed up his pace. The maidservant also urges him to hurry: "Quick, the princess is in so much pain."
The old doctor hurriedly entered the room. But, he hasn't put down his medicine box, when a jade pillow flies towards him: "Go, go away, I don't need a doctor, get out… …."
The maidservant looked very worried, she loosen her grip to the old doctor and threw herself to the bed: "Princess, don't do this, please let the doctor check your condition."
"I don't need a doctor, I don't want any doctor. You, you send away that doctor. I don't want to see a doctor, I don't… …" Nannuo Yao refused to let the old doctor get close to her.
The old doctor didn't give up, he tried to get close, but… …
When he saw the blood on the bed sheet, he immediately froze.
Abdominal cramps, bleeding in the lower part of the body, this, this, this is a miscarriage!
The old doctor felt like he witnessed something he shouldn't have. He got scared, he stepped backward and no longer to dare to come forward.
"It hurts, it hurts… It's painful." Nannuo Yao grabbed tightly the quilt on the bed. Her appearance looked very scary.
"Princess, the doctor is here, please let the doctor check your condition for you to get better, alright?" The maidservant persuaded Nannuo Yao. But, Nannuo Yao shook her head and shouted: "No, I don't need that doctor. Sent him away, go and find some else, didn't you hear me?"
When Nannuo Yao finished, the maidservant has no choice but to busily comforted her: "Okay, okay, Princess, this slave will go and find another doctor."
The maidservant quickly got up and faced the old doctor. She hurriedly apologized and said: "Imperial doctor, I'm very sorry, our princess suddenly had her monthly period. I don't know what happened, but she was suddenly in pain. By chance, do you know a female doctor? Our princess is a southern imperial descendant. We can only let a woman get close to her. I'm sorry I got confused earlier."
The maidservant's simple words emphasized her requirements. And at the same time, she pointed out Nannuo Yao's condition…
The princess didn't have a miscarriage but rather had a monthly period.
The old doctor suddenly had a realization. He had been practicing medicine for many years. So of course, he knew some women almost die in pain just from their monthly period. Seeing Nannuo Yao like this, he now didn't get worried so much.
It's just… …
"There is no female doctor in the palace, can't you give the princess her usual medicine? Didn't you give her any medicine?" The old doctor gave some useful advice.
The maidservant hurriedly replied with a worried face: "It's useless. This slave just gave the princess her prescribed medicine, but it didn't work. The princess hadn't been ill for a long time now, but this slave thought to bring the medicine. It's just, it didn't have a good effect. There is no doctor among us."
Nannuo Yao came to the east and brought a lot of talented people, but she didn't bring a talented doctor. It's not that she actually didn't bring one. But, the doctor she brought died in the middle of the road.
The doctor didn't take good care of himself. He couldn't accept the fact that he will go to the east. He didn't give himself a timely treatment when he was vomiting and had diarrhea. In the end, he died on the road.
"Then, what should we do?" The old doctor looked at Nannuo Yao. Knowing that she didn't have a miscarriage, he dared to come forward, but still fruitless.
Even if Nannuo Yao was in so much pain and in a semi-conscious state, she still refused to let the old doctor examine her. The old doctor was enough to be her grandfather, but Nannuo Yao still refused to let the old man touch her.
After trying a few times, nothing works. The old doctor waved his hand and said: "This old man can't do anything."
"Then, what should we do?" The maidservant anxiously asked: "Imperial doctor, do you know any female doctor that has a good reputation and has good medical skills in the capital?"
"Female? Female doctor? There are a few who are talented, but I don't know if they can alleviate the princess's pain." The old doctor stuttered, he looked very hesitant. He doesn't want to mention any name of female doctors.
Nannuo Yao was ruthless and arrogant, the old doctor was aware of it… If he introduced someone that cannot cure Nannuo Yao, he will be punished. If that happened, he could only die.
"What should I do? Should I just let our princess suffer and die from pain?" The maidservant deliberately emphasizes the word "die". The old doctor became scared.
If Nannuo Yao died, he will also die.
What should I do?
What can I do?
When the maidservant saw the expression of the old doctor, she knew this was the right time. She screamed and said: "Oh right, I remember, Xiao Wangfei's medical skills are good. We heard Xiao Wangfei cured the third prince's illness. If it's Xiao Wangfei, I'm sure she can cure our princess illness. Imperial doctor, what do you think?"
"Ah…this… …" The old doctor was hesitant, but when he thought that Nannuo Yao might die and he will bear the consequences. He heavily nodded his head: "Yes, yes, Xiao Wangfei's medical skills are good. She can certainly cure the princess's illness."
A dead man will not die, Xiao Wangfei, forgive this old man. Your status is high, even if you failed to cure Princess Nannuo Yao, the southern will not dare to take you down.
The old doctor apologized to Lin Chujiu in secrecy. While the maidservant slyly put all the blame to the old doctor: "Imperial doctor you are right. Xiao Wangfei can definitely cure our princess. I, I will go now to the Xiao Wangfu and ask Xiao Wangfei to save our princess."
After that, the maidservant ran outside in a hurry… …
