voice rang out: "Miss, I am willing to serve you with all my heart."Li Chengyan stopped, reached out and stamped his seal, then drew his signature on both letters. His movements were smooth and contin...Every patient who sees a doctor is afraid that the doctor, who was originally fine, will suddenly look serious. When they see this expression, the patient feels like they are doomed and must have an incurable disease.

Meng Jinyao was no exception. Seeing Wen Taizhi's heavy face, her heart sank, and she hurriedly asked, "Wen Taizhi, how is it"

Gu Jingxi also had a look of tension on his face. Earlier, when Wen Taiyi took his pulse, his face hadn't been so solemn. However, when he took Ayao's pulse, he looked like this.

Wen Taiyi did not answer but asked, “Mrs. Gu, when did this condition of yours begin”

Meng Jinyáo didn't hear an answer, and she was worried too, but even though she was worried, she still had to answer the question. She replied, "It was like this during my first menstruation, every time it was unbearable abdominal pain."

Then Wen Taiyi asked, “At what age did you have your first period”

Meng Jinyao answered truthfully: "Fifteen years old, that is, at the beginning of last year, so far, there have been five menstrual periods."

Upon hearing this, Dr. Wen's face grew even more serious.

As always composed, Gu Jingxi seemed flustered this time. His voice was tense as he asked, "Doctor Wen, how is the mistress doing"

Dr. Wen still didn't answer, and asked again: "Madam Gu, did you used to eat a lot of cold foods, often"

Meng Jinyáo shook her head. "No, I don't eat it often. Just occasionally. I usually eat home-cooked meals."

"That's strange, since Madam Gu doesn't often eat cold foods, how could she have such a heavy cold constitution" Wen Taiyi found it odd. As the eldest daughter of an Earl's household before her marriage, and then becoming a countess after marriage, with servants taking care of her, how could this be

Gu Jingxi was also puzzled.

Meng Jinyao fell silent, recalling her time at her parents' home. During winter, they barely provided enough charcoal, leaving her shivering whenever she wasn't busy. On cold days, she often succumbed to chills and fell ill.

The worst time was during a winter with freezing snow. She was punished by her grandmother to kneel at the entrance of the Rongfu Hall courtyard for an hour. However, Sun instigated her grandmother's anger, and the kneeling time extended from an hour to a whole day.

Later, she fainted from the cold. A maid informed her grandmother that she was still kneeling, and only then did her grandmother remember. That day, she came down with a high fever, which lasted for three days and three nights before breaking. She narrowly escaped death.

She had a heavy cold in her body, which was probably accumulated over many years, especially after her near-death experience at the Ghost Gate.

She opened her lips and said in a calm tone: "I almost froze to death before, probably because of the aftereffects of that illness. Besides, when it was cold before, I often caught colds, and the evil cold invaded..."

As soon as these words left his lips, Gu Jingxi's heart skipped a beat. He almost felt frozen solid. He had never heard Ayao mention this before.

Even Dr. Wen was surprised, the noble daughter of Earl’s House with servants attending to her could almost freeze to death, that must involve some dark secrets within the household, coupled with what happened to Countess Yongchang recently, it can be basically concluded that the stepmother was behind it all. He then asked, “When did this happen”

Meng Jin Yao replied, "When I was thirteen years old that winter, Doctor Wen, is there something wrong with my body"

The Warm Taiyi truthfully replied: "According to the pulse, Madam Gu has been overthinking for a long time, leading to liver qi stagnation, blood deficiency, and heavy cold in her body. The palace of her womb is cold, blood stasis is present, qi and blood are blocked, and it accumulates inside the womb. This causes abdominal pain during menstruation and irregular menstrual periods.

Meng Jiny Yao asked again, "Is this serious"

"The severe dysmenorrhea specialist gave her a look and didn't hide it, "In this case, besides causing unbearable abdominal pain during menstruation, it can also lead to infertility.

"

Meng Jin Yao, upon hearing this, let out a breath of relief. Her husband wasn't well and they wouldn't have children of their own anyway, so whether or not she could bear children didn't matter. This way, the psychological pressure on her would be less. However, every time she had her period, it was excruciatingly painful. She asked again: "Doctor Wen, can this be cured"

The imperial physician gave a positive answer: "Yes, but Madam Gu's problem is more serious and requires persistent conditioning."

Upon hearing this, Meng Jin Yao let out another sigh of relief. As long as she could be cured, it didn't matter if she had to take medicine. Although she was afraid of taking medicine, she didn't want to suffer every month. She asked again, "Doctor Wen, how long will I have to take the medicine for"

“This varies from person to person. Some patients recover in half a year, while others may take a year. The doctor said, “Madam Gu, you weren’t feeling well before, your menstruation was irregular, why didn't you see a doctor If an ailment starts and you don’t seek treatment, it will develop into a serious problem.”

Meng Jin Yao replied, "Before I got married, because my menstruation was irregular, I asked a doctor. The doctor said that it is normal for women to have two or three years of irregular menstruation after their first period. After two or three years, it will become regular."

Wen Taoyi frowned again: "That's the situation. Did that doctor feel Mrs. Gu's pulse"

Meng Jin yao nodded lightly: "Feel the pulse."

Upon hearing this, Dr. Wen's brows furrowed even tighter. His anger at the incompetence of these quack doctors colored his voice as he said, "He dared to spout nonsense after feeling your pulse"

Meng Jin Yao looked at him with confusion: "Doctor Wen, what's wrong"

Wen Taiyi explained, “Some women’s menstruation may take two or three years to become regular. Not everyone who has this situation is normal. If Mrs. Gu's situation occurs, it is abnormal and must be treated with medicine. If the body is very good and there is no problem, that is normal. Since he gave Mrs. Gu a pulse diagnosis, he should understand that this is an abnormal situation.

Meng Jinyáo was startled and hesitantly asked, "Is it possible that because he's an ordinary physician and his medical skills aren't as refined as Dr. Wen's, he didn't detect the problem when taking his pulse"

Wen Taiyi denied her conjecture: "It's impossible. A severe cold body is a problem that even ordinary doctors can diagnose.

"

Upon hearing this, Meng Jinyao felt a chill run down her spine and a wave of fear washed over her.

The Meng family's physician was a kind person. She treated the maid's illness with care, even though the maid had been punished and knelt until her knees were bruised. Qingqiu secretly went to the physician to seek medicine for her on her behalf. The physician gave them some good medicine, and the ointment worked well. At that time, both Qingqiu and Ningdong thought the physician was kind-hearted. They never expected her to betray them in this way.

However, we can't blame the imperial physicians entirely. They were just following orders. At the time, Mrs. Sun was in control of the household and managed the inner palace. If the imperial physician dared to act like this, it must have been Mrs. Sun's command.

Mrs. Sun knew about her own condition, but she forbade the imperial physician from telling her the truth. She wanted her illness to worsen so that when she married into the Changxing Hou Mansion, she would be unable to bear children and wouldn't have a good life. She could only watch as her husband took concubines and had child after child with them.

What a vicious mind!

No wonder Ms. Sun would cut back on the charcoal fire in her courtyard when it was cold, this wasn't just to mistreat her, but also to let her be invaded by the chill, evil cold entering her body and setting down the root of illness. As long as her body deteriorated to a certain extent, Ms. Sun's scheme would succeed.ok his head and smiled, "No, I'm not a young lady. What use would I have for these"He fell silent, then thought to himself that the young girl was a lady. Ladies paid great attention to their appearan...
