Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 33
[Chapter 33: Spirit Pet Disease]
He wanted to escape, but was seen by the Imperial Concubine. Lin Xiu felt a headache, but since things had come to this point, he could only bite the bullet.
He walked into the yard, bowed to the Imperial Concubine first, and said, “
Greetings, Imperial Concubine.” The Imperial Concubine waved her hand and said, “No need to be polite, please go and see what’s wrong with Nannan…”
The Imperial Concubine really cared about her pet and came to the Imperial Hospital in person. Lin Xiu sighed secretly, walked to Miss Shuangshuang who was holding the pet, and asked, “What’s wrong with the Empress’s pet?”
Miss Shuangshuang sighed softly and said, “I don’t know what’s wrong. Since yesterday, it has not eaten or drunk, and has no energy at all. But I checked it and there are no wounds on its body, and there is no problem in its body. We don’t know what to do…”
It’s really difficult for the imperial doctors to treat animals. Lin Xiu stretched out his hands and said, “Let me take a look.”
Miss Shuangshuang carefully handed the pet to Lin Xiu’s arms, and then focused all her attention on Lin Xiu. She wanted to see how Lin Xiu treated it.
Lin Xiu held the pet in his arms and found that it was motionless. There was no light in its gem-like eyes. This was obviously abnormal.
Lin Xiu stretched out a finger and gently touched its nose.
The little guy didn’t even look at him, and said weakly: “Don’t touch this princess, this princess is annoyed!”
Of course, to the imperial concubine and the imperial doctors, it was just a few “meow meow meow”.
Lin Xiu continued to tease it. Although it could understand what the little guy said, it could not understand what Lin Xiu said. Only by letting it say a few more words, Lin Xiu might know where it was uncomfortable.
“It’s so boring!”
“This princess is almost suffocated to death…”
“Someone come save me, I don’t want to stay in this place…”
…
“Meow…”
“Meow, meow…”
“Meow, meow, meow…”
Everyone only saw that under Lin Xiu’s constant teasing, the imperial concubine’s pet kept wailing, and the imperial concubine’s heart was almost broken, but out of trust in Lin Xiu, she still endured until now, and couldn’t help but say: “How is it, did you see anything?”
Lin Xiu stopped teasing, he had got everything he wanted to know.
Everyone envied the concubines in the palace, but if they were really secluded in the deep palace for several years or even decades, I’m afraid few people could bear it.
In the palaces of emperors of all dynasties, many concubines died of depression like this.
This is true for people, and animals are the same.
Lin Xiu had seen a lot of similar news before. Many animals in the zoo suddenly became listless, not active, had a loss of appetite, and even had a bad temper, circling around a fixed route, etc.
This is actually a manifestation of depression.
Obviously, the imperial concubine’s pet was also depressed.
Last time, Lin Xiu learned that it was captured from its habitat and brought to the capital. It left its parents, relatives, and companions, and lost its freedom. It was trapped in a small palace. What is the difference between it and the animals in the zoo? It is inevitable that it will have symptoms of depression.
Lin Xiu looked at the Royal Concubine and said, “My Royal Concubine, I have found the cause of the disease of the pet.”
The Royal Concubine’s face showed joy, and she said, “Really? What happened to Nannan?”
Lin Xiu said, “The Royal Concubine’s pet is depressed.”
The Royal Concubine frowned, obviously not understanding, and asked, “What is… depression?”
Lin Xiu thought for a while and explained, “My Royal Concubine, this pet was captured from its birthplace to a strange place. The place where it can move around on weekdays is just a piece of Changchun Palace. Over time, it will be depressed, which is specifically manifested in not eating or drinking, being listless, not loving to move, and until death…” After
Lin Xiu finished speaking, the Royal Concubine did not respond, but stared blankly at a certain place, and fell into a trance.
After a moment, she came back to her senses and asked Lin Xiu, “Is there any cure for Nannan’s illness?”
Lin Xiu thought for a moment and said, “If the queen allows, you can have someone take the pet out of the palace to see a wider world. In this way, its condition should improve.”
The imperial concubine nodded slightly, and then said to the little maid behind her, “Linglong, you take Nannan out of the palace for half a day. I am a little tired. I will go back to the palace to rest first…”
After that, she left the Imperial Hospital with some boredom, followed by several maids.
Lin Xiu noticed that after he finished talking about the condition of the spirit beast, the imperial concubine’s mood also changed a little.
Perhaps, she thought of herself. Although she was a noble concubine, in a sense, she was no different from the pet.
To treat the imperial concubine’s pet, the Imperial Hospital naturally had to have someone follow. This person should be Bai Shuangshuang, and Lin Xiu had to follow all the way.
In addition, there were several figures following them from a distance. They should be sent by the imperial concubine to protect the spirit pet.
She treasured this spirit pet so much that she must have been worried about letting only a little maid take it out of the palace.
The maid named Linglong was the little girl that Lin Xiu had saved in Changchun Palace. She was holding the pet, her face full of excitement and excitement. This was her first time out of the palace since she entered the palace, and she even jumped when she walked.
On the way, Lin Xiu said with emotion: “The Imperial Concubine seems to like this spirit pet very much.”
The Imperial Concubine really doted on this spirit pet, which made Lin Xiu feel that humans were inferior to animals.
Linglong said: “Of course, Nannan was a gift given to the Imperial Concubine by her mother before she died. The Imperial Concubine treasured it very much. When it was sick, the Imperial Concubine couldn’t even eat…”
Lin Xiu didn’t know that this pet had such an origin, so it made sense. It was not surprising that she had a special feeling for the relic left by her mother to the Imperial Concubine.
At this time, Bai Shuangshuang also looked at Lin Xiu curiously and asked, “Mr. Lin, I know that if people lose their freedom and are confined to a single environment for a long time, they will tend to be depressed. Do animals and pets also have this tendency?”
Lin Xiu nodded and said, “Of course, animals are also intelligent. These pets are more intelligent. They can also suffer from some diseases that humans can suffer from. If you don’t believe me, look, after leaving the palace, hasn’t it changed?”
Linglong and Bai Shuangshuang’s attention was on Lin Xiu. After hearing what he said, they immediately looked at the pet in Linglong’s arms.
At some point, the spirit beast’s eyes became bright. It was lying in Linglong’s arms, with only one head sticking out, looking around and observing everything around it. It looked much more energetic.
“It’s really much better!” Bai Shuangshuang exclaimed, then looked at Lin Xiu with admiration, and said, “I learned something today, thank you, Mr. Lin…”
Lin Xiu smiled slightly, and said, “I am not as good as you in many ways. We should communicate more in the future and learn from each other’s strengths and weaknesses.”
Then, he said to Bai Shuangshuang, “By the way, Miss Shuangshuang, I have something I want to ask you for help…”
Bai Shuangshuang said, “Mr. Lin, don’t be so polite, you have helped me twice, just tell me what’s the matter.”
Lin Xiu smiled slightly, and said, “It’s not a big deal. I have a friend who is sick, and she hasn’t gotten better after taking many medicines. Can you please go and treat her…”
Bai Shuangshuang smiled and said, “What kind of request is this? Doctors are supposed to save lives. Where is your friend? Let’s go now.”
The purpose of their leaving the palace was to give the imperial concubine’s pet a break, so it didn’t matter where they went.
Soon, Lin Xiu took them to where Caiyi lived. Bai Shuangshuang held Caiyi’s hand. In a moment, Caiyi’s pale face turned ruddy. She sat up from the bed and exclaimed: “It’s amazing. I feel that my body is completely healed!”
Lin Xiu said: “That’s natural. Miss Shuangshuang is the imperial physician of the Imperial Hospital. How can she be famous for nothing? Well, you have just recovered from a serious illness. You still need to rest well. I will come to see you in two days…”
After leaving Caiyi’s residence, Lin Xiu and her friends had to go shopping.
This little thing was really suffocated in the palace. It was listless in the palace. When it left the palace, it immediately became lively. If it wasn’t tied with a rope, I’m afraid it would have flown away long ago.
Lin Xiu understood its self-talk, so he knew very well where it wanted to go to play and what it wanted to eat. Every time, he followed it silently, which made the little guy’s playfulness very satisfied. He was very active and there was no sign of listlessness in the palace.
Bai Shuangshuang was amazed, and her eyes looked at Lin Xiu with even more admiration and respect.
She knew very well that without her special ability, she would be nothing, and in many cases, special abilities were not always successful, such as these two times.
Her biggest dream was to become a real doctor, but becoming a famous doctor was not easy, and she still had a lot to learn from Master Lin…
