This illness, known as a stroke, often occurs in elderly individuals, yet Princess Consort Ji is not even fifty, and she has suffered a stroke. This is no trivial matter.
The Princess Consort of Prince Min, unable to worry about any counterfeit, only asked the Imperial Physician about the possibility of Princess Consort Ji's recovery from this condition.
As a rule, an Imperial Physician, regardless of the diagnosis, never speaks in absolutes, but rather leaves some room for adjustment, to avoid being held accountable later.
"Dowager, this is an acute condition; because she is not very old, and this is her first occurrence, it is not particularly severe. As long as she cooperates with acupuncture and medication, she should gradually recover. However, the prerequisite is that she must rest quietly, avoiding extreme joy, sadness, or anger. Otherwise, if another stroke occurs, she might be unable to speak and could be entirely paralyzed, spending the rest of her life bedridden."
