On his way, he ran into Xiaoqian.
Xiaoqian frowned anxiously. Seeing Li Hongyuan, he immediately threw himself at him, “Fifth Imperial Uncle!”
Li Hongyuan embraced him: “Why are you here alone?”
“I’m scared.” Li Tingqian’s big eyes were slightly red, his nose was flushed, and his eyes were full of fear.
Li Hongyuan picked him up and spoke softly, “Don’t be afraid, Xiaoqian. Your Fifth Imperial Uncle will drive the bad guys away.”
Li Tingqian shook his head: “I’m not afraid of bad guys, I’m afraid of my little aunt and the sibling in her belly.”
“What?”
“Little Aunt lost a lot of blood.” Li Tingqian said, his eyes flashing with fear. He shrank into Li Hongyuan’s embrace, his small body trembling slightly, “Xiaoqian is afraid of blood…”
“Don’t be afraid, Xiaoqian. Your imperial uncle and aunt will protect you.”
Li Hongyuan patted Xiaoqian’s back, but received no response.
Looking down, the child had actually fainted.
Startled, Li Hongyuan did not wait to summon the Imperial Physician, and directly carried him to the Imperial Medical Academy.
Fortunately, Judge Dong was there. Seeing the emperor’s eldest grandson unconscious, he hurried over to take his pulse.
He frowned: “There’s nothing abnormal about His Highness’s body.”
“If there’s nothing abnormal, why did he suddenly faint?”
“Your Highness, don’t worry. Let me first try acupuncture to wake His Highness up.”
Dong Chaofeng took out silver needles and quickly inserted one into Xiaoqian’s Renzhong point. Soon, Xiaoqian woke up.
He rubbed his eyes, sat up, slightly dazed, “Fifth Uncle, where am I?”
Li Hongyuan hurriedly asked, “Xiaoqian, how do you feel? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”
Xiaoqian shook his head.
Everything seemed to be alright.
How strange.
At that moment, a eunuch rushed over with blood on his hand, saying that he had been injured while working and begged the Imperial Physicians for some wound medicine.
Seeing the blood on the eunuch’s hand, Xiaoqian fainted again.
“Xiaoqian!” Li Hongyuan was shocked, “Master Dong, what is going on here?”
Dong Chaofeng was also surprised and carefully examined Xiaoqian again.
Still nothing was found.
The little prince wasn’t injured, nor was he sick.
He had just looked at the injured eunuch and fainted.
“Ah!” Dong Chaofeng suddenly thought of something, “Could it be that His Highness has blood phobia?”
“What is that?”
“Simply put, it means being afraid of blood. When they see blood or even talk about blood, they will immediately faint.”
As he said that, Li Hongyuan remembered that the previous time Xiaoqian had fainted, he was also talking about Jiang Ning’s injury and bleeding.
Li Hongyuan was somewhat puzzled, “Xiaoqian has seen blood before, but he didn’t have this problem.”
Dong Chaofeng replied, “It’s not a disease, it’s just a shock, a stimulus.”
He pointed to his head, “This is not a physical disease, but a mental one.”
“A mental disease?”
“Exactly. His Highness must have been traumatized, which makes him afraid and faint at the sight or mention of blood. To cure it, you need to make him unafraid.”
Li Hongyuan picked up Xiaoqian and said, “Treating illness is a job for the Imperial Medical Academy. As this matter is significant, I am now taking Xiaoqian to see Emperor Father in the Imperial Study. Master Dong, why don’t you come with me so you can explain the situation to Emperor Father more effectively?”
Dong Chaofeng quickly packed his medicine box and followed Li Hongyuan to the Imperial Study.
The Emperor was working in his study, reviewing memorials and meeting with ministers. When Li Hongyuan entered, he didn’t expect that both the second child, King of Chen, and the third child, Prince of Huai, were there.
Although the brothers were only superficially harmonious and constantly competing behind the scenes, in front of their Emperor Father, they were the best brothers in the world..
