Chapter 392 Congenital Heart Disease

In the inner hall of Qin Mansion, Qin Qiongyi was on the soft couch, and there was a table of banquets in front of him. Ma and Li Xiu were with him on both sides. Qin Qiong could not drink, and Li Xiu was unwilling to drink. Ma, the only one who could drink, was afraid of attracting Qin Qiong's wineworms, so he simply stopped drinking. The three of them ate and chatted.

Li Xiu liked to listen to Ma Ye and Qin Qiong talking about some of the things that happened at the beginning, especially the chaotic times at the end of the Sui Dynasty. Although this chaotic times did not last long, all demons and monsters came out, and the country was divided by various forces. It can be said that it was the most turbulent in the history of the Central Plains, but it was also the most exciting period. The struggles between various forces were absolutely no worse than the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty.

However, both Ma Ye and Qin Qiong seemed very heavy when it came to the turbulent rebellion at the end of the Sui Dynasty. Only those who have experienced the troubled times know how cruel that troubled times were. Even the things that people can eat people are often staged. Ordinary people sell their children and daughters are everywhere, and even the powerful cannot guarantee the safety of themselves and their families, let alone ordinary people. It can be said that everyone is in danger. No one knows what tomorrow will be like. Just through their narrative, Li Xiu has already felt a bit of despair.

"Master, come down to visit the King of Qin!" But at this moment, a servant from the Qin Mansion trotted in and reported the report.

This also shocked Qin Qiong on the soft couch. He wanted to stand up while holding the table, but was stopped by Mr. Ma and said, "Shubao, you are not feeling well, so sit down. Li Xiu and I will go to greet you on your behalf!"

"No need to welcome me, I have arrived. Shubao, are you not in good health yet?" But at this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came from outside the window. Then Li Shimin walked in, and there was a person following behind him, Sun Simiao, who had entered the palace before.

"See Your Highness the King of Qin!" Seeing Li Shimin come in, Li Xiu and Ma Shimin hurriedly saluted. Qin Qiong wanted to stand up and salute, but Li Shimin stepped forward to support him and said, "Shubao, you don't have to be too polite. I only heard that you were sick before, but I didn't expect that the illness was so serious. I just heard that Master Sun said that he only knew."

"Thank you for your concern!" Qin Qiong thought he would be neglected by Li Shimin, but now he suddenly felt Li Shimin's concern, which made him feel warm and hurriedly clasped his fists and bowed.

"Why is Your Highness? The princess's illness is not a big deal, right?" Li Xiu asked at this time, because he found that Sun Simiao looked at him with a hint of embarrassment. When he talked to Sun Simiao before, whenever he encountered some medical problems, the other party would show such an expression. So the first thing Li Xiu thought of was that Changsun's disease might be problematic.

As soon as he heard Li Xiu's words, Li Shimin's face couldn't help but gloomy. Then he looked at Sun Simiao, and then said, "The princess's illness is nothing. As long as he is careful in recuperation, he can recover. However, when Master Sun was treating the princess, he found that the princess' illness might be transmitted to his children, so he treated Chengqian and the others, and found that Lizhi...she..."

At the end of the story, Li Shimin's eyes suddenly turned red and he could no longer say anything. This shocked Li Xiu and others, and then they all looked at Sun Simiao. At this time, Sun Simiao sighed and said, "I found that the princess's heart disease is more serious than the princess's. It may not be serious in normal times, but when she becomes an adult, it is likely not suitable to have children, otherwise she may have life worries!"

"Heart disease? Master Sun, do you think Lizhi has a congenital heart disease?" Li Xiu was shocked when he heard this. Li Lizhi, a little girl, had seen Li Xiu before, and she was very beautiful and cute. But he knew that Li Lizhi in history died in his twenties. Now he thought about it, it is likely to be related to this disease.

"Yes, the princess's heart disease is congenital, and I don't have any good treatment for this. I wonder if you have any solution to Li Jijiu?" Sun Simiao nodded at this time and said that congenital diseases like this have always been a major medical problem, and there is almost no good treatment.

"But Lizhi is so young, maybe her physical condition will gradually improve. Master Sun, is it too early to draw a conclusion now?" Li Xiu did not answer Sun Simiao's words, but asked back with some disagreement.

"Li Jijiu, what you said makes sense, but I have encountered several similar cases before. When they became adults, some people forced themselves to marry and have children, but almost never got through this level. The main reason is that they are too weak when they become adults and cannot bear the burden of pregnancy!" Sun Simiao sighed at this time. He had lived for so many years and had seen countless diseases, which also provided him with countless cases and greatly promoted his medical skills.

"This..." Li Xiu was speechless when he heard this. Even Sun Simiao said so, and he could not find any conditions to refute. Moreover, in later generations, he also remembered that some serious heart disease was indeed not suitable for childbirth.

"Li Xiu, don't you have a way to treat this disease when you have difficulty giving birth?" Li Shimin saw Li Xiu's expression and immediately asked anxiously again. The reason why he came to Qin Mansion was because he heard Sun Simiao talk about his daughter's condition, and he was helpless, so he came to see Li Xiu. After all, Li Xiu's medical skills seemed a bit mysterious to them, and maybe he would have a treatment method.

Li Xiu couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this. Not to mention that he was not a real doctor, even if he was an outstanding doctor in his later generations, under the conditions of the Tang Dynasty, he probably wouldn't be able to treat this congenital heart disease. As far as he knows, it seems that the best way to do this disease is to undergo surgery, and even to change the heart if it is more serious. However, now there are no conditions, and secondly, he doesn't understand medical skills at all, so he can't have any solutions.

"I'm afraid I'm going to let Your Highness down. I can't do anything good for this kind of disease!" Li Xiu said with a weak smile to Li Shimin. As soon as he said his words, Li Shimin's face turned pale. His favorite daughter would not be able to marry and have children in the future, which was also a huge blow to him.

"Master Sun, do you really have no treatment?" Li Xiu said unwillingly at this time. Traditional Chinese medicine is still very good at regulating the human body, and Sun Simiao is one of the best, so he still has a glimmer of hope for Sun Simiao.

Regarding Li Xiu's words, Sun Simiao smiled bitterly and shook his head. After a while, he spoke: "In fact, the princess's heart disease is not the direct cause of her inability to have children in the future. It is because her heart disease develops to the end, which will make her body weak in all aspects, especially the internal organs of the five internal organs are not as weak as ordinary people. She usually shows weakness and illness, which is not suitable for childbirth at all. Of course, if you forcefully get pregnant, it is likely that her body will not be able to bear it before the child is born. Even if you can survive until the child is born, it is likely to be difficult to give birth, which will lead to one corpse and two lives!"

"Can you find a way to regulate her body, such as exercise since childhood to make her body stronger?" Li Xiu asked unwillingly when he heard this. The beautiful and cute little girl even Princess Pingyang liked this niece very much, so he couldn't bear to see her unable to even marry and have children in the future.

"It is indeed a solution to do this, but due to heart disease, her body is worse than that of ordinary people. She may get sick often in the future. It may be difficult to exercise regularly like an ordinary child. There are also some other impacts. Among the similar cases I have encountered, some women have lived a wealthy life since childhood, but their health is not much better than those of ordinary patients when they grow up." Sun Simiao also looked at Li Shimin here. This disease does not have any difference in the identity of the patient, even the prince and grandson.

Li Shimin kept listening to the conversation between Li Xiu and Sun Simiao quietly, but the more he listened, the more he felt more desperate. Finally, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "Forget it, everyone has their own destiny. At worst, I just want to find a husband for Lizhi who doesn't want children in the future!"

When Li Xiu heard the first half of Li Shimin's sentence, he felt a little desolate, but when he heard the second half of his sentence, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. Li Shimin is the one who wants to be an emperor, so his daughter naturally has no worries about marrying, but the status of women in this era is not high. If she cannot have children, even a princess will be gossiped about. If Li Lizhi really gets married in the future, she may have to bear a lot of pressure.

Li Shimin mainly came to Li Xiu for medical treatment. Now Li Xiu had no choice but to be depressed, so he didn't stay here for a long time. After reminding Qin Qiong to rest with peace of mind, he immediately stood up and said goodbye. Li Xiu and Ma Ye saw him leave in person, and Sun Simiao also followed Li Shimin to the palace again. When he left just now, he had not had time to prescribe a prescription for Changsun. In addition, Li Lizhi also needed to prescribe some prescriptions for recuperation. Although the effect may not be great, it was better than not.

After Li Shimin left, Li Xiu and Ma Ye chatted with Qin Qiong for a while. It was getting late, so the two of them also got up and said goodbye. In the carriage where they returned, Li Xiu was thinking about Li Lizhi's condition.

Speaking of which, although Li Lizhi's condition is serious, she also has an unborn sister, Princess Jinyang. The little princess's condition is even worse. She even died before she became an adult, and she died only one year later than Li Lizhi. This caused Li Shimin to suffer the pain of losing her daughter one after another. It was also from then on that time that Li Shimin's physical condition has been getting worse day by day.

When he returned home, it was already evening. Princess Pingyang also asked someone to prepare supper and then came to invite Li Xiu to dinner in person. However, as soon as he saw him, he immediately realized that he had something to worry about. This made Princess Pingyang immediately ask, "What's wrong, husband, what are you worried about?"

"This..." Li Xiuting Yi didn't know whether he should tell Pingyang this bad news. If she knew her niece's condition, she still didn't know what would be in a hurry? (To be continued.)
