The Emperor looked at her condition, feeling some pity, and turned to ask Meng Zhang: "Can she be cured?"
Meng Zhang replied: "I shall do my utmost, the Princess's illness is hidden within the five viscera, usually hard to detect, but now that it's manifested, it's quite dangerous. I will study the prescription, nurture her internal organs, dispel cold and heat, unblock meridians, relieve inflammation and reduce fever..."
The Emperor could not bear to listen to these words, and interrupted him abruptly: "When can she be cured?"
Meng Zhang secretly lamented, for he had just examined the Seventeenth Princess, and her face was covered with blisters, some shiny, some filled with yellow liquid. Initially, he thought it was smallpox but found anomalies after checking the pulse.
With her face like that, it's said her body also has them, and they are not something that can disappear in a few days.
He even dared not claim that his prescribed medicine would definitely be effective.
