I am a miracle doctor in Dream of the Red Chamber

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, at the Lin Mansion in Yangzhou City.

When the sound of New Year's firecrackers continued all night long and every household was immersed in the happy time of the festival, An Wuxia was awakened by the crackling sound.

The moment I opened my eyes, I saw those warm and caring eyes, and they said with great surprise: "Miss An, you are awake. Are you feeling unwell? Do you need to see a doctor? Are you hungry now? Are you thirsty? I am still blaming myself for not telling you about your relatives' condition yesterday."

An Wuxia smiled bitterly, then shook her head and said, "I'm fine, don't worry. Truth will come to light sooner or later. Besides, the sooner I know about it, the better it will be for me to treat them as soon as possible. There may still be a glimmer of hope."

Qi Zhen encouraged An Wuxia and said, "You must cheer up as soon as possible. Not only are your family members waiting for you to save them, but you also promised me that you will fight with me to turn the tide."

An Wuxia lowered her head shyly and said, "Well, I didn't promise you anything. I'm not from here, and I won't belong here in the future, so I should come and go freely."

Qi Zhen smiled and said, "Of course I know you are not from the Lin family, and you will not belong to the Lin family in the future. As for freedom of coming and going?! You are now a prisoner of the emperor. If I hadn't sent the Meteor Army to protect you everywhere, you would have died hundreds of times in the Rongguo Mansion."

An Wuxia glanced at Qi Zhen and said, "How can you really understand what I said?! I... don't belong... to this world!"

Qi Zhen hurriedly touched An Wuxia's forehead and said with a smile: "You haven't had a fever since last night, why are you talking nonsense again?!"

An Wuxia also smiled and shook his head and said: "Since I came here, I will do my best to save people and change all the predetermined outcomes."

Qi Zhen said with doubt in his eyes: "You... are indeed a unique girl! So unique! You always give people unexpected surprises!"

An Wuxia seemed to have thought of something and asked hurriedly: "How are Xiao Daiyu and Lord Lin?!"

Qi Zhen looked at An Wuxia and said, "Don't worry, the entire Lin Mansion is now under the protection of the Meteor Army. They are very safe. The Lin family father and daughter went for a walk in the back garden after breakfast, which is very rare."

An Wuxia said happily: "Master Lin can walk so soon, so I feel relieved. It seems that the antidote is still very effective."

Qi Zhen asked at this time: "Why are you so unexpected in everything?! One moment you got the rainbow mandarin fish from nowhere, and in the blink of an eye, you made the foreigner fall asleep without anyone noticing, and the next moment you prepared the antidote for the highly toxic drug quickly and well without any help from anyone. And what you did in the Rongguo Mansion is simply unbelievable! What else do you have that I don't know?! How many surprises are waiting for me?!"

An Wuxia looked at Qi Zhen quietly. She didn't know where to start, nor how to explain that she was accidentally brought into the world of "Dream of Red Mansions" by this "Ren Miao Hu Bei" medical space station.

She secretly thought to herself: "I believe that the Renmiaohu Cup can take me through time and can also take me back. It's just that my current medical skills are not high enough, or I haven't completely mastered this medical space station. So, Qi Zhen, I'd better not accept your kindness, so as not to get into more trouble!"

Seeing that she had been silent and seemed to be worried, Qi Zhen comforted her and said, "Okay, don't worry about your family anymore. After the incident, I have sent the best doctors to rescue them. It would be best for you to consult with other famous doctors. Maybe a miracle will happen."

An Wuxia got out of bed, put on his clothes, and tidied up his loose black hair. He said with energy, "I dare not neglect anything. During this period of time when I was out of the capital, I am afraid that many troubles will arise in the Rong and Ning mansions."

Qi Zhen clapped his hands gently outside, and Bai He from Lingxi Pavilion came in with a food basket. She knelt and bowed, saying, "Today is the Spring Festival, and the kitchen has prepared some special delicacies. The Imperial Inspector of Salt and Miss Lin just ate them and said they were excellent. The Third Prince and Miss An should also try it and see if it suits your taste. If you want to eat something, just tell me, and I will ask the kitchen to make it immediately."

After hearing this, Qi Zhen looked at An Wuxia and said, "Miss An, just tell them what you want to eat."

An Wuxia nodded to Bai He and said, "Thank you for your trouble, Miss Bai He. These delicacies are very good. There is no need for anything else."

Qi Zhen smiled and said, "Then take your time to eat. I'll go take care of some things and come back to see you later."

An Wuxia tilted her head, looked at Qi Zhen adorably and said, "You stayed with me all night last night. Aren't you tired? Don't you want to sit down and have breakfast together?!"

Qi Zhen's eyes were twinkling with stars, and he said in surprise, "...Okay...Okay! It's rare that Miss An invites me, so I'd better obey your command!"

An Wuxia gave Qi Zhen a quiet and sweet smile, and Qi Zhen's eyes were full of pampering and love. It was the first time they had a meal together, and they were talking and laughing, and it was very lively.

At this time, Lin Heming, the housekeeper of the Lin Mansion, knocked on the door, as if he had something to report. After Qi Zhen opened the door, he whispered a few words in his ear. Qi Zhen nodded, indicating that he understood, and then the housekeeper Lin walked away.

An Wuxia saw it and said with a smile: "Do you have any secret plans to carry out?"

Qi Zhen turned around and sat down, looking at An Wuxia and said, "It's okay to tell you. It's just the news about Jia Lian, the son of the Duke of Rong who came with you."

An Wuxia said in disbelief, "He came back with us to visit Uncle Lin at the old lady's order. How could he be a hindrance to you?"

Qi Zhen shook his head and said meaningfully, "He is naturally not involved in the vortex of court disputes, so I will not send the Meteor Army to pay attention to him. But as the eldest son of the Duke of Rong, he actually spends his days in the flowers, cockfighting and running around, without any ambition. Just imagine how such a noble son can carry on the family business and continue the family's glory in the future?!"

An Wuxia looked at Qi Zhen and said, "Are you monitoring his every move?!"

Qi Zhen said angrily: "When my father first ascended the throne, the four princes and eight dukes and other military ministers supported us. My father was grateful and rewarded them greatly. But I didn't expect that they had already formed their own faction in private, which was intertwined and had a great influence."

An Wuxia said: "They are all descendants of their ancestors who have made great contributions. They can enjoy wealth and honor by relying on the glory of their family. Naturally, they have the habits of a playboy."

Qi Zhen sighed and said, "I have long ago written to my father to advise that all the people of Dayao, regardless of their wealth, nobleness or humbleness, must be selected based on their talent and virtue. Even the aristocratic families, princes, nobles, and even the royal family must be assessed on their talent and virtue, and only when they meet the standards can they be appointed to official positions. In the families of princes, generals, and ministers, the ancestral titles of nobility will not be inherited, and the descendants will be encouraged to work hard and emulate the ambitions of their ancestors."

An Wuxia said admiringly: "This is really a good suggestion. I wonder if Your Majesty will adopt it?!"

Qi Zhen closed his eyes in disappointment. After a long while, he slowly said, "My father and I have many different political views. He believes that the foundation and merits of our fathers can be inherited by the younger generations within three to five generations. Our ancestors worked hard just to make their descendants enjoy wealth and prosperity. As long as they are proactive and keep the family honor, that's enough."

An Wuxia thought silently and said, "Your Majesty has his reasons for thinking, otherwise how can the world distinguish between the rich and the poor and the differences in family background?! He did this naturally to reassure the old ministers and to reuse the descendants of the old ministers. Imagine if Your Majesty rashly accepts your advice, it will inevitably offend the interests of the old ministers, and then there may be waves in the court."

Qi Zhen crossed his arms and said with certainty: "But the founding heroes such as the Four Kings and Eight Dukes, their descendants are only a few generations old, but they are just arrogant and extravagant, not enterprising, and rely on the power of their ancestors to seek personal gain everywhere, which is really notorious."

An Wuxia said, "According to what you said, the royal relatives and the wealthy families will probably decline quickly if they don't strictly discipline their children and grandchildren. But don't forget that your maternal uncle's family is also the Duke of Chen's Mansion, and my uncle's family is the Duke of Li's Mansion, and you are the legitimate son of the current emperor and the queen, and the legitimate candidate for the crown prince. If the standard is to be assessed based on talent and virtue, then your position as crown prince may be replaced by the children of the royal family, and the competition will be even more miserable... There are always pros and cons to everything!"

Qi Zhen said seriously: "Even if it concerns the succession of the country and the throne, such reform is also meaningful. Moreover, there are many honest and loyal ministers who have already drafted the outline of the reform, but my father secretly suppressed it and refused to adopt it."

An Wuxia said: "Perhaps the emperor has his own considerations. He has other arrangements for this matter. You were the crown prince at the time, and your foundation was unstable. If you offended the old nobles, it would probably be disadvantageous to you."

Qi Zhen said confidently: "These founding heroes should only be given generous treatment and honors on the surface, and their status should be preserved, but not given real power. Evidence of their crimes should be secretly collected, and once it is confirmed, their property will be confiscated and they will be exiled. If their descendants do not work hard, there will be no possibility of rising again."

An Wuxia took a deep breath and said, "No wonder His Majesty disagrees with you on politics. You are so thoughtful and meticulous in doing things, so fair and upright, and so resolute, without any trace of affection. In your eyes, fairness, justice, and right and wrong have nothing to do with any affection!"

Qi Zhen smiled and said, "The one who understands me is Miss An!"

An Wuxia smiled and said, "But at present you still need the support of the four kings and eight dukes. This is not the time to suppress them."

Qi Zhen said affirmatively: "So I have been sending people to secretly observe the actions of the four kings and eight dukes, so that if I need to use them one day, I will know which people are worth using."

An Wuxia said: "It seems that although you are no longer the crown prince, your heart is still in the court. Although you are far away from the martial arts world, you are still the Qi Zhen who cares about the world. You are destined to be a person who cannot leave the court in this life."

Qi Zhen suddenly looked at An Wuxia and said, "After I achieve my wish, I will travel the world with you and become a pair of immortal lovers, okay?"

An Wuxia answered him seriously: "When you achieve your wish, how dare I hope to travel around the world with you and become a pair of immortal lovers?!"

Qi Zhen's eyes were full of doubt and confusion...

An Wuxia smiled and shook her head, unwilling to say more...
