When Young Master Li turned to run, Ke Shengming immediately said in a deep voice: “Does Li Gongzi want to resist the decree?”
Even if Young Master Li had the courage, he would not dare to resist the decree. After listening to this, he could no longer move forward. When he was found out, he would be dismissed at most. Once the illness was cured, he may have a chance to come back. But if he was sentenced with the crime of resisting the decree, he would be finished. Not only him but also his family.
Young Master Li’s stomach no longer hurts. He walked into the hall step by step in frustration and sat down in front of Imperial Doctor Xu.
First, Imperial Doctor Xu glanced at his complexion. He looked bad and depressing. There seemed to be red pimples under his neck. Although he was wearing a collared robe, he still couldn’t hide those red bean-sized pimples.
Imperial Doctor Xu frowned immediately and said to Young Master Li: “Does Li Gongzi have acne?”
Young Master Li hurriedly shook his head: “No, no, not really.” He had asked the doctor at home. If he only checks his pulse, they wouldn’t find out his disease.
Imperial Doctor Xu didn’t want to check his pulse. More like, he didn’t want to touch him at all.
“Li Gongzi, please remove your coat.”
Young Master Li laughed: “Imperial Doctor Xu, it’s so cold. Why do you want me to undress? Isn’t it enough to check my pulse?”
Imperial Doctor Xu said: “Perhaps Li Gongzi’s disease doesn’t need his pulse to be check.”
Young Master Li felt like he was poured with cold water. This doctor was one of the heads of the Imperial Hospital. His medical skills and knowledge were naturally much better than ordinary doctors outside.
Besides, isn’t the purpose of their coming today was to investigate this kind of disease? How could they let him go?
“If Li Gongzi doesn’t want to take it off by himself, this official can ask someone to help you take it off.” On the side, Ke Shengming was holding the teacup, leisurely scratching the foam, as he spoke with a calm face.
He was calm and gentle, after all, he was not the one who’s sick.
His clothes will be taken off anyway, so Young Master Li simply took them off by himself.
Imperial Doctor Xu got up, took out a pair of plain hemp gloves from the medicine box, and put on them. He walked close to Young Master Li, grabbed his wrist with one hand, and rolled up his loose sleeves with the other hand.
After the sleeve was rolled up, a fishy smell entered their nose. The broken acne had appeared in many places. The peculiar smell was coming from them.
Imperial Doctor Xu asked again: “Does Li Gongzi have the same acne under him?”
Young Master Li wanted to say no, but if he didn’t tell the truth, Imperial Doctor Xu would let him take off his pants. He was checked by them anyway, so what else can’t be said?
“Yes!” He muffled.
“The same acne?”
Young Master Li nodded his head: “Yeah!”
Imperial Doctor Xu sighed and released his hand. He took off the gloves and threw them directly into the wooden barrel beside them. Several pairs of gloves were already thrown in the wooden barrel.
Ke Shengming asked: “How is it?”
“Mold sore.” Imperial Doctor Xu’s voice was very soft, with a slight sigh.
Young Master Li was taken aback: “What? Mold sores? Impossible! How could I get mold sores? It is obviously smallpox. I’m already taking medication and it will be cured soon.”
No wonder he reacted like this. Although smallpox was also a visceral disease, it can be controlled by medicine. However, there was no cure for mold sore. With this disease, the skin will begin to ulcerate, then followed by bone pain, alopecia, and even blindness may occur.
“The whole body will be covered with sores. After the sores are broken, pus and blood will come out. Wherever the blood reaches, the sore will continue to grow, and eventually enter the muscles and bones, while spreading, it may even affect the internal organs——”
Imperial Doctor Xu was interrupted by Young Master Li: “Shut up, you shut up. It’s impossible. It’s absolutely impossible.”
He had heard of this mold sore. If he was really infected, his body will rot. In the end, he will die.
