Doctor Chen walked into the room and saw that the person he was to examine was a young eunuch. Noticing his extremely pale complexion, he immediately approached with his medicine chest.
Little Xianzi looked at Doctor Chen with sincere trepidation. Were it not for the Empress's Imperial Decree, someone of his lowly status would not be entitled to receive medical attention from an Imperial Physician.
Doctor Chen sat on the wooden stool by the bed to check Little Xianzi's pulse and examine his body.
A moment later, he looked towards Zhan Lan and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, this young eunuch has been poisoned with something that causes weakness and exhaustion. Furthermore, he has multiple injuries on his body, including bruises, bite marks, and other needle-inflicted wounds that are not visible on the surface."
In the court of Nanjin, the abuse of newly inducted eunuchs by the Direct Room manager has been going on for some time, inflicting both physical and mental torment.
