Amazing Pastoral World: Unparalleled Medical Queen

Lu Ke'er was about to offer to help the boy undress, but she heard Ji say to Lu Mingxi, "Xiao Xi, go ask your Uncle Lei to come over."

Lu Ke'er then remembered that this was not the modern era with open minds, but the ancient times where men and women were not allowed to touch each other. If she helped the boy change his clothes, she would not think there was anything wrong with it from a doctor's perspective, but others would probably nail her to the shame rack with a bad reputation.

"Xiao Xi, when you go to see Uncle Lei Qi, don't say that I saved someone. Just say... just say that you asked him for a favor." Lu Ke'er carefully instructed the little kid.

After the little bean responded and left, Ji asked Lu Ke'er worriedly: "You chose to hide it, is it because there is something wrong with this young master?"

She had seen many handsome young men before, but this was the first time she had seen one as handsome as this young man.

How can such a person be an ordinary person?

The more I thought about it, the more uneasy I felt.

"Mom, I just searched his pass. He came from Pingzhou. Pingzhou is in chaos right now, and he might have enemies behind him. It's better to be safe than sorry. We should be careful and not save others with good intentions but put our family at risk. When Uncle Seven comes, tell him not to tell anyone about this."

Ji thought for a moment and nodded, "Ke'er, you are very thoughtful. Well, since you have met this man, it means he is not destined to die. We can't just stand by and watch him die."

"You're right, mother." Lu Ke'er praised sincerely.

Thinking of the moment of hesitation she felt when she first met this young man, Lu Ke'er truly felt that this mother was so kind.

Sometimes, the ancients were much more honest and kind than modern people. Otherwise, why would there be the phrase "people's hearts are not as they used to be"?

After all, Ji was still worried, so before Lei Qi came, she took Lu Ke'er and told Lu Tianning about this.

Lu Tianning asked Lu Ke'er: "Is this person really from Beijing? Is his surname Xiao?"

Lu Keer nodded: "That's what it says on the pass. This person is still in a coma, so I didn't have a chance to ask him."

"Does he have any other items that can prove his identity?"

Lu Ke'er remembered the waist badge and quickly took it out and handed it to Lu Tianning: "I found this in the secret pocket of his belt. It is hidden so secretly, it must be very important to him. Dad, take a look, it should be made of fine iron. However, the carving is not very good, the little snake on it is really ugly."

Lu Tianning took the badge, lowered his head and looked at it, his face suddenly changed.

How can this be a snake? This is clearly a dragon!

Moreover, this waist badge only belongs to one person in this world...

Lu Ke'er looked at Lu Tianning in astonishment. At this moment, his hand holding the badge was shaking slightly, his face looked shocked and excited, his lips were slightly open, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

"Dad, do you recognize... this badge?" Lu Ke'er asked tentatively.

Lu Tianning closed his eyes tightly, took a few deep breaths, and then opened his eyes. His dark eyes stared at Lu Ke'er, with a flash of urgency in his eyes: "Ke'er, what does the young man you saved look like?"

"About seventeen years old, very young. His appearance is very good. However, he is very weak."

Lu Ke'er almost uttered the word "sickly child".

She could see the aura of almost everyone, but strangely, she could not see anything on this young man named Xiao Yeming.

She used her spiritual energy to examine his body and found that his physical condition was very bad. There seemed to be many kinds of toxins in his body. The various toxins restrained each other, making his body reach a delicate balance. However, the toxins also regarded his body as a battlefield, causing his body to be severely damaged. If there is no treatment, he will not live past the age of 18.

If the boy's outstanding appearance aroused 30% of her interest, then his complicated physical health condition aroused the remaining 70% of her interest.

She thought that most doctors would have the desire to explore and overcome a difficult disease, and she was no exception.

Lu Tianning's expression was shocked: "Seventeen years old..." He murmured, his body trembling, "From this point of view, it is right..."

"Dad, do you know this person?" Lu Ke'er asked, glancing at Lu Tianning's strange expression.

"No... I don't know him." Lu Tianning denied subconsciously, but when he met Lu Ke'er's suspicious eyes, he felt that he was trying to hide something. He paused and said, "He... reminds me of an old friend. Ke'er, you said he was in poor health, is he okay?"

"It's a little tricky."

"Ke'er, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. You must treat him well. It seems that he will not be able to leave in a short time and will have to stay in our house for a while." Lu Tianning pondered, "Let's tell others that he is my distant relative, who came to see me from Pingzhou, encountered robbers on the way, was injured, and had to recuperate at home."

Lu Ke'er looked at him in surprise.

Not only did her father not object to the young man living at home, but he also helped him think of a cover identity.

This is to protect the young man with all his heart.

Lu Tianning lowered his eyes, avoiding Lu Ke'er's puzzled gaze, and explained in a low voice: "After all, you are a man. Living in our house for no reason will cause gossip among the villagers, which is not good for your reputation."

Lu Ke'er didn't believe her father's words. However, she didn't point it out, just smiled and nodded, "Dad is still thoughtful."

Lei Qi came quickly with the little kid in his arms. When he saw the boy on the bed, he helped change his wet clothes without saying a word or asking any more questions.

However, he was secretly surprised in his heart, so when he saw Ji after finishing his work, he looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Ji thanked him repeatedly: "Seventh Brother, thank you so much. It's not convenient for me and Ke'er, Xiaoxi is too young, and Brother Tianning's situation is..."

"You are too polite, sister-in-law. I know your family situation very well. It's just a piece of cake."

"This child is also pitiful. He is a distant relative of Brother Tianning. He came to our house from Pingzhou alone. On the way, he met robbers and was injured. Fortunately, he finally arrived at our house. When he was almost home, he was dizzy and accidentally fell into the water. His whole body was wet and he was still unconscious..." Ji said in a rambling manner.

Lei Qi's heart was immediately filled with sympathy: "Then we should quickly ask a doctor to take a good look. From Pingzhou? Well, maybe he came to seek refuge with you..."

On second thought, it was not right. The fabrics of the boy's clothes were all top-quality goods, and it was obvious that they were expensive. He must be from a wealthy family. Who would come to seek refuge with the Lu family in such a situation? On second thought, it was said that the rich in Pingzhou were not having a good life either, and their situation might not be as good as the Lu family's. Maybe he really came to seek refuge.

After chatting for a few more words, Lei Qi left.

After seeing Lei Qi off, Ji turned around and saw Lu Ke'er holding a white fur coat. She stared in deep thought and asked, "Is this the young master's clothes? Is there any problem?"

"Ah, nothing. I was just about to take these dirty clothes out to wash." Lu Ke'er smiled perfunctorily, gathered the dirty clothes she had taken off together and took them to the yard.

She didn't tell Ji that she had just discovered that the material of the dress was very strange. It was neither cotton, nor silk, nor linen, nor leather. It was smooth and soft. After being soaked in the river, it did not leave any water stains. It felt very dry to the touch. When her hand touched the dress, she was even more surprised to feel waves of spiritual power from it.

This is not a piece of clothing, it is clearly a rare treasure!

She became even more curious about Xiao Yeming's true identity.

…………

Ye Feng slept for three days and three nights.

During these three days, he was not completely unconscious. Sometimes, he would be awake for a moment, could hear sounds and smell odors, but could not open his eyes.

He seemed to be lying on a hard bed, with a little boy talking to him in a baby voice from time to time. The air seemed to be filled with a faint fragrance mixed with grass and soil. There were birds chirping happily outside the house. At mealtime, he could sometimes hear the click-click-click of the bellows and the intermittent barking of dogs in the distance.

The people who saved him should be a farmer. This family seemed to be good at cooking. Sometimes at mealtime, when he was conscious, he could smell the rich aroma of vegetables, which made his usually pure stomach start to protest loudly.

But what impressed him most was the cool and pleasant voice of the girl.

It should be a young girl. Although he couldn't open his eyes to see her, he could feel every breath of her, a young, energetic, calm and reassuring breath.

Every time she came, she either gave him an injection or fed him medicine. The little boy would accompany her and ask her some questions from time to time. She would answer him patiently and would not be perfunctory just because he was a child.

At this moment, he seemed to regain consciousness, but unfortunately, he still couldn't open his eyes.

The door creaked open, and a faint and refreshing fragrance mixed with medicine and flowers wafted into my nose.

"Xiao Xi, have you finished writing today?" the voice asked cheerfully.

"I've finished writing it. My dad even praised me for my progress today." The little boy answered proudly.

"It's a nice, sunny day today, why don't you go out and play with your friends?"

"No, I want to accompany my big brother."

"..."

"Sister, big brother has been sleeping for several days, why hasn't he woken up yet?"

"Big brother is tired and wants to sleep more."

"You're lying! Big brother is very ill, isn't he?"

"Do you like big brother very much?"

"……Um."

"Why do you like it?"

"Big brother is good-looking."

Hearing this, Ye Feng was shocked.

He couldn't move his limbs and had no way of knowing whether the mask on his face was still there.

"It turns out you are a face-obsessed person." The girl joked.

"Sister, what is face control?"

"A face control is someone who is particularly concerned about other people's appearance and obsessed with their beauty. For example, are the candied haws I made for you a few days ago delicious?"

"good to eat."

"A string of candied haws can be sold for twenty coins, but if someone who loves looks comes to sell candied haws, he might give it to someone for free if he's happy enough to see someone good-looking."

"You don't charge money?"

"No."

"Sister, I understand. You are obsessed with looks."

"How did you know that?" the girl asked jokingly.

"Yes. These past few days, you treated this big brother, took care of him, and spent a lot of money on medicine, but you didn't charge him a penny."

"..."

"Sister, am I right?"

"Our Xiaoxi is such a genius, haha!"

A pair of slender hands pressed against his chest, and Ye Feng felt a cool fragrance on his face. His whole body stiffened, and a hot air rose from his chest and abdomen. His heartbeat suddenly quickened. He didn't know whether it was because the conversation between the siblings just now made him imagine a lot or because the pair of hands touching his body made him uncomfortable.

"Sister, how long will big brother sleep?" I heard the boy named Xiaoxi ask.

"He should be waking up soon."

"Sister, Brother Yu and the others haven't been here recently." Children always change the subject quickly.

Who is Brother Yu?

Ye Feng thought vaguely, and felt the collar of his shirt being pulled open. The skin on his chest was exposed to the air, and he felt a little cold.

The soft fingertips touched the skin, and the girl replied: "Your brother Yu and the others may be busy these days. Why, do you miss them?"

"Well, every time Brother Yu and the others come, they always bring a lot of delicious food."

"So you're not thinking about Brother Yu and the others, you're thinking about delicious food."

"Sister, you're talking nonsense. I've been thinking about it."

"Why haven't I seen Shuanzhu come to play with you these past two days?"

"Shuanzhu's mother is sick again and has a severe cough. He said that he is a man and must stay at home to take care of his mother."

"Shuanzhu is really filial."

"Sister, I am also filial."

"Well, our Xiaoxi is the most filial."

"Sister, Brother Yu and the others all said that you are a great doctor. Can you help Shuanzhu's mother treat her?"

"Don't worry. Last time, your sister Dongling told me about her mother's illness. Her mother's cough is caused by qi deficiency and loss of body fluid. I have prepared a paste recipe called loquat lung moistening cough relieving paste, which can be taken with water. You can send a bottle over later. It will be effective for her mother's condition."

"Okay. Sis, you're awesome."

"Little sycophant."

A cold silver needle pierced into the acupuncture point on the chest. While listening to the two siblings chatting, Ye Feng felt the strange changes in his body after the silver needle entered his body.

He was in the Prince's Mansion in the capital, and every few days the imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital would come to check his pulse. Sometimes when he felt unwell, some imperial physicians who were good at acupuncture would give him acupuncture. The head of the Imperial Hospital, Imperial Physician Gao, was good at this technique.

But even if Doctor Gao was giving him acupuncture, he would not be able to feel the strange power coming from the needle.

After the girl's silver needle entered his body, he could clearly feel a warm current like a silk thread seeping into his body from the needle tip, and then being urged and guided by a mysterious force, flowing through the meridians of his body. The originally blocked and fragile meridians were warmed and stimulated by the warm current, and gradually changed. Just like a river blocked by silt being continuously washed away by water, the river gradually became smooth.

During this process, he did not feel relaxed. He often felt stimulating pain, sometimes so much so that he almost wanted to jump out of bed. But the strange thing was that even with such unbearable pain, he could not wake up, could not make a sound, and could not move at all.

The warm current flows through the whole body and finally converges at the middle fingertip of the left hand.

Suddenly, I felt a pain in my fingertips and warm blood flowed out from them.

"Sister, why is big brother's blood black?"

He heard the boy exclaim.

The girl explained: "Big brother has been poisoned. This is poisonous blood."

"Oh, my brother is so pitiful. He must be very uncomfortable because he has been poisoned."

How could it not be uncomfortable? He thought in a daze. All the doctors in the Imperial Hospital said that his poison could not be cured. The emperor also found many folk detoxification experts, but they were all helpless against the poison in his body. Doctor Gao once said that his poison could not be cured, but could only be suppressed. So, he had to drink a lot of bitter medicine every day to suppress the toxicity in his body. Sometimes, some medicines are poisons themselves...
