The Imperial Physician from the Imperial Medical Bureau received the message and hurriedly rushed to the Eastern Palace.
Butler Fu stood anxiously at the entrance, and as soon as the physician arrived, he quickly led him to the Warm Pavilion that the Empress Dowager had arranged.
The Imperial Physician did not even take time to catch his breath, and promptly took the Empress Dowager's pulse. After completing the examination, he heaved a sigh of relief and said to Butler Fu and Maid Zhou, "No need to worry. The Empress Dowager has suffered from an acute attack affecting her heart due to intense emotions, which led to a temporary fainting episode. After taking the prescribed medicine, she will soon wake up."
Maid Fang, recalling what the maidservant by the Crown Princess Consort had said, asked the Imperial Physician to prescribe the medicine without delay.
After carefully considering, the Imperial Physician wrote a prescription for the Empress Dowager.
