Chapter 258 The Princess Gets Better

"There are definitely risks, but as for whether the tumor will grow again after it is removed, the chance is very small and depends on one's luck.

In addition, don't think about finding other doctors to see, taking medicine, or getting acupuncture to cure Mr. Wu's illness can only be cured by surgery to remove the tumor in his body.

As for whether to treat it or not, you should consider it carefully. " Bai Yan glanced at Mr. Wu and said slowly.

After hearing this, Lord Wu turned pale and asked in a trembling voice: "Doctor Bai, is there really no other way? My father is old, and we are really worried..."

Bai Yan sighed lightly, shook his head, and said, "Master Wu, I understand your concerns. However, Mr. Wu's condition has reached the point where he must undergo surgery. If it is delayed any further, it will only make the condition worse."

“Master Wu, you can think about it for a few days. Even if you decide to use the knife, I need to prepare some herbs and tools before you do so. You also need to make some preparations.

If you decide to do it, prepare these things." Xu Qingyi handed Master Wu a piece of rice paper.

The rice paper contains not only the necessary medicinal materials and tools, but also things to pay attention to after the operation, as well as suggestions on diet and lifestyle habits.

Lord Wu took the rice paper and looked at the dense handwriting on it, feeling even more heavy-hearted. He knew that once he decided to use the knife, it would mean that his father would face a life-and-death test. Moreover, they had no way of predicting the outcome of this test.

Lord Wu took the rice paper handed over by Xu Qingyi, nodded repeatedly, and said: "Okay, if we make a decision, we will definitely cooperate with you."

Bai Yan smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, we will do our best."

After saying that, Bai Yan and Xu Qingyi turned and left the room, leaving Lord Wu and Old Man Wu looking at each other in bewilderment.

In the following days, Lord Wu was restless and worried about what to do. His mother died young, and it was his father who raised him and his brothers and sisters with great difficulty. Now his father is old and seriously ill, how can he not be worried?

However, whenever he thought of Bai Yan and Xu Qingyi's words, he couldn't help feeling helpless.

He didn't understand his father's illness, but when he saw his belly getting bigger every day, he knew it was not a good thing and that he had to undergo surgery. If he delayed it any further, the condition would only get worse.

However, how could he ignore the risks of the operation? If the operation failed, how would he face the death of his father?

Mr. Wu was in deep entanglement. On the one hand, he wanted to take a risk and give his father a chance; on the other hand, he was afraid that the operation would fail.

These are all things for later.

"Master, Doctor Bai, we need to visit four hospitals for follow-up consultations and acupuncture today.

The first one was to give acupuncture to the eldest princess.

The second person was the old lady from the Wang family who came for a follow-up visit to check on the condition of her anus.

The third one is......." After leaving Wu's house, Chen Xiu took out a booklet and described today's itinerary in detail.

After Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan finished treating each patient, Chen Xiu would record the patient's condition and arrange the time for follow-up visits and acupuncture each day, writing it down clearly and in an orderly manner.

Xu Qingyi was also very satisfied with Chen Xiu's careful and organized arrangement, which made the entire treatment process more efficient and orderly.

"Chen Xiu, you are very good." Xu Qingyi glanced at the booklet in her hand and nodded appreciatively.

"Master, this is what I should do." Chen Xiu answered modestly with a shy smile on her face.

"Where is Old Madam Wang? Chen Xiu, go there in person and check her anus.

Lin Yuan, please go for a while......

As for Bai Yan and I, we will go to the Princess's Mansion in person." Xu Qingyi quickly arranged the route for everyone.

"Yes, Master." Chen Xiu and Lin Yuan responded in unison.

A group of people split up and headed for their own destinations.

Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan took a carriage and came to the Princess's Mansion.

"Greetings, Imperial Physician Xu and Imperial Physician Bai." The servants of the Princess's Mansion bowed respectfully.

"No need to be polite." Xu Qingyi waved his hand, indicating that they didn't need to be polite.

"Where is the princess now?" Xu Qingyi asked.

"Reporting to Imperial Physician Xu, the young master and the eldest princess are currently drinking tea in the pavilion in the back garden." The servant replied.

"Lead the way." Xu Qingyi nodded and signaled his servants to lead the way.

When I arrived at the pavilion in the back garden, I saw an elegant woman sitting in the pavilion with a cup of fragrant tea in her hand, but her eyes were a little dull.

Zhang Chengwen was guarding the eldest princess and her son next to them.

"Imperial Physician Xu, Imperial Physician Bai, you are here.

Why choose this hour for acupuncture today?" Zhang Chengwen saw Xu Qingyi and the other person coming, he smiled and quickly stood up to greet them, asked them to sit down, and personally poured them tea.

Instead, the eldest princess standing by saw someone coming, raised her head and glanced at Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan.

Xu Qingyi and the eldest princess met each other's eyes and a slight smile appeared on their faces.

In the past, when they gave the eldest princess acupuncture treatment, they always arranged to do it when she was asleep to prevent her from going crazy. They were worried that she would struggle during the acupuncture and get hurt.

The reason why he chose to come here today when the eldest princess was awake was because five days ago, when Bai Yan examined the eldest princess's head, he found that the blood clot where the eldest princess had fallen had been cleared, which meant that the eldest princess' condition was about to take a turn for the better.

"It's almost time to move on to the next step of treatment. It's a bit radical, so we need to do it when the princess is awake." Bai Yan and Xu Qingyi looked at each other and said.

"Hmm! These days, I've also discovered that my mother seems to have become more alert. She's almost no longer crazy. She likes to sit quietly, seemingly immersed in her own world.

Or if someone comes, he will look up. "When Zhang Chengwen heard Xu Qingyi say this, he recalled the recent situation and his eyes lit up slightly.

"Princess, do you still recognize him?" Xu Qingyi was sitting on the right side of the princess, pointing at Zhang Chengwen and said with a smile.

When the princess heard Xu Qingyi's voice, she looked in the direction of his finger and stared at Zhang Chengwen for a long time without saying anything. She seemed puzzled and confused.

Then she shook her head gently and nodded, as if trying to understand this strange yet familiar face.

Just when they were disappointed.

"He... he is... Wen..., Wencheng, grown..., grown up." The eldest princess' voice was weak and vague, as if she was looking for long-lost memories.

There was a glimmer of light in the eyes of the eldest princess, as if she was touched, but it quickly disappeared in her hazy eyes. She was silent for a while, then suddenly raised her head and smiled at Zhang Chengwen. Although the smile was a little awkward, it was full of warmth.
