Quick Travel: Saving the Cannon Fodder Male Supporting Role

The sword of another person came from the side. She retreated a few steps like a ghost, holding the sword in both hands, and slashed hard at the maid who followed closely.

This sword was even more powerful. The maid blocked it with her sword, but the sword, which could still be considered a sharp weapon, instantly broke into several pieces and scattered on the ground. Li Changhuan put his sword across her neck, turned his body, and kicked another maid away.

The maid flew and hit the courtyard wall a few meters away. The moment she landed, she spat out a mouthful of blood and her eyes turned red.

The whole process took only a few breaths. The two maids, who had never met an opponent along the way, were captured and the other was beaten to the point of vomiting blood before even ten moves from the princess.

There was shock in the eyes of the genius doctor. She thought that people in the world who said that the Princess of Northern Yan could defeat thousands of troops alone were just boasting without any reason. Now it seems that they were probably underestimating her abilities.

Li Changhuan slowly put away his sword and looked at the miracle doctor.

The genius doctor swallowed his saliva, a little frightened, and said with a bow, "I am willing to serve the princess."

Li Changhuan extended his hand: "Then please."

Two of her guards helped the doctor's injured maid to stand up, and they left the Taoist temple together.

The empress went out in the morning and came back late. When she heard that her daughter brought back a miracle doctor to treat her, she did not show any joy.

She knows her own body very well. When her time comes, no miracle doctor can help her.

She was just glad that she had done the matter as soon as Li Changhuan left. Now that the imperial edict had been issued, the emperor could not go back on his word, and no one could change the outcome.

It took the genius doctor a quarter of an hour to take the empress's pulse. He carefully touched her with both hands and probed several acupoints on her body. Then he slowly stood up and looked at Li Changhuan.

"Your Highness, may I have a moment with you?"

The Empress said, "I know everything about my body. There's no need to hide anything. Just tell me what you have to say."

The doctor looked at her, then at Li Changhuan. Seeing her nod, he said, "Your Majesty's pulse condition, I think the palace physicians have already diagnosed it. It's a sign of impending death, and it won't take more than six months."

She thought this would definitely cause a stir, but to her surprise, neither the Empress nor Li Changhuan showed any expression. Li Changhuan asked, "Is there any solution?"

The miracle doctor looked up at her and shook his head gently: "That's tantamount to going against the will of heaven. I, a commoner, can't do that."

Now both of them were silent.

The doctor continued, "But I have a prescription that will make the next few months easier for your majesty. The price is your death. Even a Daluo Jinxian can't save you."

The bedroom was quiet again for a while.

It was the Empress who spoke first: "Let's use this prescription. Thank you for your help, my doctor."

The miracle doctor bowed to her.

The empress was not too disappointed, she had known about it for a long time.

"Please allow the Divine Doctor to stay in the palace for a few days. Someone, send the Divine Doctor to the Imperial Hospital."

Two palace servants came in immediately and asked the doctor to leave.

Seeing Li Changhuan's lost look, she said, "Huan'er, life and death are determined by fate. I have lived longer than many people to this age. There is no need to be sad about this."

"Mother." Li Changhuan felt very uncomfortable.

The empress changed the subject: "Today, I summoned that Young Master Yan. He is a good boy. I have issued an imperial decree. On the sixteenth of next month, he will marry from the Prime Minister's Mansion and become your legitimate husband."

Li Changhuan's expression changed instantly: "Queen Mother!"

The Empress waved her hand and said, "I don't have much time left. I always want to make everything perfect before I leave. Since you must have him, then marry him openly and honestly. This is all I can do for you. As long as I am here, I can always suppress them."

These words left Li Changhuan with nowhere to vent her dissatisfaction. It was for her sake that the Queen Mother agreed to let such a person of unknown origin become her legitimate ruler.

If I had known this would happen, I would have accepted what Xiao Yanzhi said that day.

She was feeling depressed, so she stayed with the empress for a while, then went to the Imperial Hospital to see the miracle doctor. She learned that the miracle doctor's name was Jiang Mingzhu, from Dongli.

Jiang Mingzhu claimed that she was persecuted and exiled to the other two countries. She was a little afraid of the cold. She first went to Nanqin. Nanqin now had a male emperor, and the status of men was even slightly higher than that of women. She stayed there for a few months and was really not used to it, so she came to Beiyan.

Li Changhuan was not interested in her stories, but asked about the empress's condition again, but was still powerless to save her.

Li Changhuan was very disappointed and said, "Then you should write down the prescription tomorrow and have the Imperial Hospital prepare it for Your Majesty to drink. If it works, I will reward you handsomely."

Jiang Mingzhu said, "I am a poor person wandering in a foreign land. Even if I receive a high reward, it will be useless. Your Highness, why don't you give me the identity of Beiyan? I came from Nanqin. I sneaked through the big checkpoints and forced my way through the small ones. If it weren't for my two loyal maids following me, I would have died on the road."

"As you wish."

-

When I returned to the East Palace, it was already dark.

Wuyou must be happy to have received such an imperial edict today, but he was worried that Li Changhuan would be angry when he thought about the day she denied having a cinnabar mole on her chest, and he felt uneasy.

When he heard the palace maid call out the princess's name, he immediately went out to greet her.

Li Changhuan caught the person who rushed out. Seeing that he looked up at him cautiously, he raised his hand and touched his head: "Slow down, be careful not to fall."

Wuyou gave her a flattering smile: "No."

The two of them entered the bedroom together, and dinner was quickly served. Until the end of the meal, Li Changhuan did not mention the imperial decree granting the marriage.

Finally, Wuyouxian couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, you, you don't blame me?"

"Why do I blame you?" Li Changhuan knew that this matter was not his to decide at all, and he just felt that fate was playing tricks on him. "It's my fault for not thinking it through before. I was worried that something might happen to you when you return to the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Wuyou smiled when he heard this: "With His Highness protecting me, how could anything happen to me?"

Li Changhuan liked to see him smile at her, which made her feel much better. She pinched his face and kissed his lips: "Well, I will protect you."

Wuyou's face flushed from the kiss, and he stepped back a few steps, changing the subject: "Your Highness went to invite the miracle doctor today. Did he find him?"

"Already in the Imperial Hospital."

Wuyou recalled meeting the Empress today and realized she wasn't feeling well. He then asked, "Can the miracle doctor cure Her Majesty?"

Li Changhuan shook his head: "I don't know."

Actually, it can’t, but she doesn’t want to say it.

"The reputation of a miracle doctor is well known, so he must have some extraordinary qualities. Besides, Your Majesty is a man of good fortune, so Your Highness need not worry too much."

Seeing his serious look, Li Changhuan didn't want to discuss this topic anymore: "Let's not talk about this. It's getting late. We should settle down."

Wuyou didn't know what he was thinking about, and a blush appeared on his face.

He was a little shy, as was often the case: "Your Highness, we, we are getting married next month. During these few days, can we..."

It’s not that he was being pretentious, but he was easily tired these days. Every time he was tormented by her, he wouldn’t be able to get up until noon the next day.

I'm afraid of gossip if it gets out.

Li Changhuan said, "I'm talking about going to bed. I went to see that miracle doctor today and had a fight with the people around her. I'm tired and need to rest early. What do you want to say, husband?"

Wuyou: "..."
