Xia Hongming quickly walked over and sat down. As he rubbed his eyebrows, he leaned against the couch, trying to make himself feel better.
Imperial Physician Wang hurriedly went forward to take his pulse with a serious expression. After taking his pulse, he knelt down.
When Xia Hongming saw him like this, he asked, “Imperial Physician Wang, what illness do I have? Why do I always have a headache during autumn and winter? It suddenly acted up today. It hurts so much.”
Imperial Physician Wang hesitated for a while before mustering his courage to say, “Your Majesty, you’re not sick.”
Xia Hongming glanced at Imperial Physician Wang angrily. “Quack, if I’m not sick, why do I have a splitting headache? Tell me, explain it to me. It’s been three years. In the past two years, I could use medicines to relieve the pain, but this year, all the medicines have lost their effectiveness. Did you temper with the medicines?”
Xia Hongming was angry and furious, and his expression was a little ferocious.
Imperial Physician Wang was so frightened that he shuddered. He quickly explained, “Your Majesty, even if I had ten thousand guts, I wouldn’t dare to tamper with the medicines.”
After the headache eased a little, Xia Hongming said, “Someone, go and get all the people from the imperial hospital over.”
The eunuch quickly left in fear.
Dozens of imperial physicians from the imperial hospital were quickly brought over.
After diagnosis, more than ten experienced imperial physicians looked at each other and retreated to the side.
Xia Hongming suppressed his anger and asked, “What illness do I have?”
The old imperial physician wiped the sweat off his forehead. “Your Majesty, you are not sick… You are probably just too tired.”
Imperial Physician Wang heaved a sigh of relief. This diagnosis was similar to his. Actually, Xia Hongming was not sick. To put it bluntly, it was a mental illness.
Xia Hongming’s face darkened. “Nonsense. My head hurts!”
When the other imperial physicians continued to take his pulse, they all said the same thing. Even the younger imperial physicians had the same result. Xia Hongming, who was leaning against the couch, was silent.
In the hall, it was so quiet that one could see and hear a pin drop.
After a long time, Xia Hongming took a deep breath. “Is my headache really caused by mental illness?”
The imperial physicians nodded in fear.
Xia Hongming no longer suspected. He might not believe what a person said, but since all the imperial physicians said the same thing, he had no choice but to believe it.
Xia Hongming was frustrated. He didn’t know if it was because he knew the answer, but his headache gradually eased. This made Xia Hongming believe what the imperial physicians said even more. He frowned and looked at the imperial physicians kneeling below. “Rise.”
Hearing the order, the imperial physicians heaved a sigh of relief and stood up.
Xia Hongming held his head with his hand. “Then tell me, what should I do? I can’t stand having this splitting headache every autumn and winter.”
Imperial Physician Wang was considered to be the senior, and he had been taking Xia Hongming’s pulse for the past few years.
The imperial physicians all looked at Imperial Physician Wang, waiting for him to speak.
Imperial Physician Wang was helpless. He could only take a step forward and say seriously, “Your Majesty, the reason for the pain in your head is a mental illness. This mental illness is the most difficult and incurable illness in the world. Your Majesty, why don’t you tell us and let us ministers share your worries?”
Looking at Xia Hongming’s cold expression, Imperial Physician Wang went all out. “Once the knot in your heart is removed, you will naturally recover without needing treatment.”
With that, Imperial Physician Wang lowered his head.
If Xia Hongming refused to face the knot in his heart and remove it, then no one could help him.
For some reason, Xia Hongming felt a headache coming on again.
He was furious. “Give me the medicine to stop the pain first.”
Once he tried to think about what might be the knot in his heart, his head hurt so much that it felt like it was about to split open. His rationality was losing bit by bit. He only wanted to get angry and smash things.
Looking at the useless imperial physicians, he was really annoyed. There were so many of them, but they could not relieve his pain. They were all useless.
Seeing this, the imperial physicians quickly said, “Imperial Physician Hu, your acupuncture technique is superb. Hurry up and give His Majesty acupuncture to ease the pain.”
Every imperial physician had their own specialty. Acupuncture was the fastest way to ease the pain.
Imperial Physician Hu did not delay. He quickly took out his first aid kit and took out silver needles to perform acupuncture on Xia Hongming.
After a few needles, Xia Hongming gradually calmed down.
Looking at the terrified expressions of the imperial physicians, Xia Hongming sighed. “Is there really no other way?”
The imperial physicians lowered and shook their heads.
Xia Hongming sighed. “I do remember something. Perhaps it’s what is causing the headache. I’ve been busy all these years and don’t have time to deal with it.”
Xia Hongming felt heaviness in his heart.. Could he tell them that he wanted to travel the world? Could he tell them that he wanted to see a woman he had never seen before?
