Traveling through the ancient times

In the Third Prince's Mansion, the imperial doctors took turns to feel Nian Nian Hua's pulse. Nian Nian Hua nervously observed the expressions of the imperial doctors when they felt his pulse.

Some seemed to be thinking about something, some frowned, some looked calm, and some just shook their heads.

Nian Chuhua's heart also fluctuated with the expressions of the imperial doctors.

After the imperial physician took her pulse, he carefully observed Nian Chuhua's throat and asked her to try to make a sound to see if there was anything unusual in her throat.

Jiang Ruixue and Lu Mingqian sat aside without saying a word, quietly waiting for the imperial physician to observe Nian Chuhua's condition.

After all the imperial doctors had finished taking the patient's pulse and observing him, Lu Mingqian asked, "How is he? Is there any way to treat him?"

The imperial doctors all told us the results of their diagnosis. Chushunihua was in good health and there was nothing wrong with him, except that his throat was a little troublesome.

Two imperial doctors diagnosed that Nian Chuhua's throat was damaged by medication, causing him to be unable to make any sound.

The other imperial doctors were not good at treating the throat area and did not find anything abnormal.

Nian Chuhua looked anxious and wanted to ask her what medication had caused the condition. Seeing this, Jiang Ruixue patted the back of her hand and asked for her.

"Sir, do you know what medicine caused Miss Nian's sore throat?"

The imperial physician glanced at Lu Mingqian and asked if he should tell the truth. "Master Chen, please feel free to tell me."

The one called Dean Chen was the director of the entire Imperial Hospital, and he had superb medical skills. "This young lady's throat must have been damaged for some time, and there is nothing wrong with her body. We cannot determine what medicine caused it at the moment."

"Is there any way to treat it?"

"I need to go back and look through some medical books to see if I can find a cure."

Dean Chen answered Jiang Ruixue and bowed to Lu Mingqian. "Your Highness, I still have some questions for this young lady."

Lu Mingqian sent all the other imperial doctors away, leaving only Dean Chen behind. "Dean Chen, if you have any questions, just ask."

"Yes, Miss, may I ask you under what circumstances did you find that your throat could not speak?"

Nianchuhua took out the small notebook she carried with her, wrote down the story of how she found her throat unable to speak, and handed it to the imperial physician.

[I was kidnapped by a man from Xiliang. He knocked me unconscious and took me to a farmer's house and locked me up. When I woke up, I couldn't speak.]

The imperial physician took the book drawn at the beginning of the year and was shocked.

What is the origin of this young lady? She even asked the Third Prince to summon all the imperial doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau to treat her. She was also kidnapped by people from Xiliang. What grudge did she have with the people from Xiliang?

"Miss, was she murdered by someone from Xiliang?"

No wonder they couldn't diagnose what the drug was. Xiliang had many poisons that they didn't have in Dongyi. They had never come into contact with them, so naturally they couldn't diagnose it.

Lu Mingqian spoke for Nian Chuhua, "The Xiliang people's target is my Highness. Miss Nian is being held back by me. I hope Dean Chen will do his best to treat Miss Nian."

The imperial physician understood the situation. Lu Mingqian had been on the march and fighting wars all year round. It was said that the former crown prince of Xiliang was also killed by people sent by Lu Mingqian. It was normal for the people of Xiliang to want to make trouble for Lu Mingqian.

"Yes, Your Highness, rest assured, I will do my best."

"Now that we know it was the Xiliang people who did the poison, we only need to look into the medicines that the Xiliang people are good at. I will go back and look through the medical records to see if there are any similar cases."

"Thank you very much! Please keep the fact that Miss Nian was kidnapped by the Xiliang people a secret, Dean Chen."

"Yes, I understand!"

Lu Mingqian asked Xingyi to send Dean Chen out, then turned around to comfort Nian Chuhua, "Don't worry, Dean Chen is the best doctor in the Imperial Hospital, he will definitely find a way."

"Yes, Chu Hua, since this is Xiliang's poison, if it doesn't work, let's go to Xiliang. Xiliang and Dongyi are on good terms now, and Qi Muhe is also in Xiliang, so there will be no problem for us to go there."

Lu Mingqian also agreed with Jiang Ruixue's words. If there was really no one in Dongyi who could cure Nian Chuhua, he felt it was necessary to go to Xiliang.

He was also afraid that the Xiliang doctor in Tada County would do something bad. Nian Chuhua was so weak at the time, and he was afraid of missing the best time for treatment, so he hurriedly took Nian Chuhua back to Dongyi.

If they had known that this poison was so tricky and that even the imperial physicians of the Imperial Medical Bureau had never seen it, they should have followed Qi Muhe to Xiliang and cured Nian Chuhua's throat before returning.

"Yes, Chu Hua, we must have confidence. There are other imperial doctors coming tomorrow. Let's see if there are any imperial doctors who can come up with a solution tomorrow."

I nodded at the beginning of the year, and now this is the only way.

On the second day, another group of imperial doctors came to the Third Prince's Mansion and took Nian Chuhua's pulse, and their conclusion was the same as yesterday.

Now they can only wait for Dean Chen to see if he can find any way to treat the disease.

For two consecutive days, Lu Mingqian invited most of the imperial doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau to the Third Prince's residence.

This action attracted the attention of the masters in the palace and the dignitaries in Kyoto.

Everyone thought that the Third Prince was ill and had some serious illness, so they invited so many imperial doctors to treat him at once.

However, Lu Mingqian attended court on time every morning and did not look sick, so the ministers in the court began to speculate secretly.

Could it be that the third prince has contracted some hidden illness from spending so much time fighting outside?

The King and the Queen were extremely anxious. After the morning court session, the King wanted to call Lu Mingqian to the imperial study for questioning, but Lu Mingqian refused.

The Queen Mother sent someone to the outside of the palace to invite Lu Mingqian over, but Lu Mingqian found an excuse to refuse.

This further increased the worries of the king and queen.

It’s not that Lu Mingqian didn’t want to go, but on the way to the palace today, Lu Mingqian met Dean Chen, who told Lu Mingqian that he had found some clues and needed to observe Nian Chuhua’s throat.

So after the court session ended, Lu Mingqian and Dean Chen hurried back to the Third Prince's Palace.

Xingyi had already taken Nian Shouhua to the Third Prince's residence to wait. Jiang Ruixue did not go with him this time because she had to go to the palace today because the Imperial Concubine summoned her.

After the morning court session, Lu Mingcheng went to Jiang Mansion to pick up Jiang Ruixue and went to the palace to pay respects to the Imperial Concubine.

Nian Chuhua was sitting in the main hall waiting. Xingyi had already told her that Dean Chen had made some discoveries and needed to take her pulse again. Nian Chuhua was waiting for Dean Chen's arrival with great anticipation.

Seeing Lu Mingqian and Dean Chen coming back together, he stood up and saluted, "Greetings to the Third Prince, Dean Chen."

When they were in Qunan, Nian Chuhua and Lu Mingqian got along quite casually, and they didn't exchange formalities when they met.

But now he was in Kyoto, with the imperial physician present, and as a mere commoner, he must observe proper etiquette to avoid being criticized.

"Get up!"

"Miss Nian, there's no need to be so polite!"

Lu Mingqian raised his hand and called Nian Chuhua. If there were no outsiders present, Lu Mingqian would not allow Nian Chuhua to salute him.

In Qunan, Nian Chuhua and Jiang Ruixue never greeted Lu Mingcheng. They got along like old friends without any restraint.

When performing formalities, it seems strange and there is a sense of distance when there is respect for superiors and subordinates.
