“This is Imperial Doctor Xu. Seeing that you don’t look so well recently, I have invited Imperial Doctor Xu to come and treat you.” Ke Shengming was not an ambiguous person. He was upright. If his son did get this kind of disease, he will find a cure. If it can’t be cured, he will find a way to prolong his life.

When Ke Tong heard this, his face turned pale in shock. He immediately waved his hand: “No need. I’m fine, I’m—”

Ke Tong waved his hand, but Ke Shengming grabbed it. Ke Shengming’s face was pale when he pointed his finger to the sore on his son’s wrist: “What is this?”

Ke Tong quickly retracted his hand. His body kept trembling. He didn’t say a word.

Imperial Doctor Xu said: “Er Gongzi, can you pull up your sleeve for me to see?”

Ke Tong shook his head, as tears fell from his eyes. Although he was 18-years-old, in the eyes of Ke Shengming, he was still just a careless child. He was the most obedient and care-free child in the mansion. How could this child get such a disease?

Ke Shengming stretched out his hand to grab his arm, but was stopped by Imperial Doctor Xu: “Daren, this disease is contagious, please be careful.”

When Ke Tong heard that it was contagious, he quickly hid his hands behind his back and refused to let his father touch him.

“Father, this son has no face to see you. Leave me alone. Just let me live and die here!”

Ke Shengming said angrily: “What are you talking about? You are my son, how can I not care about you? Be obedient, show it to Imperial Doctor Xu, maybe it’s not an incurable disease.”

Ke Tong cried: “Father, I have already seen a doctor. It’s mold sore, it’s mold sore. I can’t survive. Father, please, leave me alone, just leave me alone, okay?”

Ke Shengming’s legs soften. He could no longer stand firmly. Before confirming, he always felt like there was a chance, but now that he heard his son admit it himself. He knew it was over.

Imperial Doctor Xu sighed. He was about to turn around to leave, but suddenly, he thought of someone. He turned back and said to Ke Zhengming: “Ke Daren, there is someone who might have way. Please invite her.”

Ke Shengming simply said: “Even Imperial Doctor Xu can’t cure this disease, who can cure it?”

Imperial Doctor Xu busily replied: “Ke Daren, that’s not true. The world is so big. There are many people in the world. There are a lot of people who are better than me.”

Ke Shengming asked: “May I know who this doctor is?”

Imperial Doctor Xu said, “Maybe you know this person. On New Year’s Eve, the empress dowager had a stroke. This old man was incompetent and couldn’t treat her. It was Miss Bai Zhi who made this magical pill, which not only saved the empress dowager’s life but also prevented her from paralysis. Her medical skills are superb.”

Speaking of Miss Bai Zhi, he had an impression of her. At the palace banquet that day, he took a glance at her but didn’t see her too clearly. Later, he heard that she was Dongfang Mu’s granddaughter. However, what was strange is, Dongfang Mu’s granddaughter, was a teenager, where did she learn this amazing medical skill?

“How can that be? She’s just a little girl. She wouldn’t know this kind of disease, right?” Ke Shengming hesitated.

Imperial Doctor Xu waved his hand: “No, no, Miss Bai has excellent medical ethics. I feel ashamed. I have lived this long that I forgot a lot of things. It is Miss Bai who reminded me of my original intention. There is no taboo to a benevolent doctor!”

With Imperial Doctor Xu’s encouragement, Ke Shengming was moved. In any case, he just needs to give it a try. Maybe, just like what Imperial Doctor Xu said, she really has a cure… ..?
