After swallowing my anger and taking the blame, I became the lucky little queen

She sighed and said, "That sickly guy is down. I heard from the shopkeeper that he has been lying in bed for more than half a month. Now he can't eat or speak a few words. He's dying."

There was no reservation in these words, and only Xiao Yunzheng could say them in such a plain tone without people being able to hear the curse in them.

Nian Susu looked at the plaque of Taihe Teahouse. The lacquered wood was polished to a bright shine, and the gold characters on a black background looked very domineering. Who would have thought that its owner was a terminally ill person?

She sighed softly, "I know some medical skills, why don't you let me try?"

She has a way to cure Xuan Ji's strange poison, and Cui Yuqing's disease might be the kind of disease she is good at treating. In this way, saving a life can be considered a good deed for her.

Xiao Yunzheng was shocked at first: "You know medical skills? I didn't even know that?"

She was just shocked but did not question it. He took her into Taihe Teahouse without saying a word, all the way to the fourth floor, and walked into a room. There was actually a door inside, leading to another room.

As soon as the door was opened, the strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine hit her nose. Xiao Yunzheng was not used to it and wrinkled her nose, but she did not show any disgust.

Nian Su Su has a familiar feeling, the long-lost taste of traditional Chinese medicine.

"Hey sick guy, I'm back again."

The room was simply furnished with a bed, a table and three medicine stoves by the window. One was boiling medicine while the other two had their fires turned off.

Xiao Yunzheng walked towards the bed and sat down casually on the edge of the bed.

The curtains beside the bed were half drawn, blocking out most of the light.

Cui Yuqing coughed a few times, then asked with a helpless smile: "Ahem...what happened this time?"

Xiao Yunzheng at this moment was completely different from the sad girl downstairs.

She smiled brightly, "I didn't come back to get anything. I brought people to rescue you."

Cui Yuqing's face froze. He didn't expect that there was another person in the room. He raised his neck to look behind the curtain and was shocked to see Nian Susu walking towards him. He supported himself and tried to get up.

"Young lady..."

"Mr. Cui, you don't have to be so polite." Nian Susu hurriedly stopped him. She half-jokingly said, "If you are sick, just lie down. Yun Zheng and I are good friends, and I am also half a doctor. How can a patient be seen by a doctor?"

Only then did Cui Yuqing lie back down with peace of mind.

The going back and forth took up a lot of his energy, and now he was lying flat on his back, gasping for breath.

She had walked to the bed and was looking down at him.

Cui Yuqing's face was frighteningly pale, especially in the dim light. He lay there quietly, skinny and expressionless, almost like a paper figure.

Nian Susu was startled, but didn't show it on his face.

Xiao Yunzheng made way, unable to hide her excitement, "Lingling, please take a look at him, what's wrong with him?"

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

She didn't know what disease Cui Yuqing had, and whether ancient medical technology could cure it. But Xiao Yunzheng already regarded her as her savior.

This put a lot of pressure on her.

When I first met Cui Yuqing, Xiao Yunzheng told me that he had this disease since he was a child. His elder brother died of this strange disease when he was young. Now it was his turn, and all the famous doctors in the world said that there was no way to cure it.

Xiao Yunzheng probably took the attitude of trying everything possible and placed all her hopes on Nian Susu.

Cui Yuqing saw her worry and comforted her before taking her pulse: "I know my illness well. It's probably useless. Miss Nian, don't feel any psychological pressure. If the diagnosis is that there is no hope, just tell me. I've heard a lot anyway."

He gave a bitter smile. It was not a word of comfort, but the helplessness he felt after suffering several blows. He had no choice but to accept the fact that he "could not be saved".

Xiao Yunzheng scolded him, "Go away, what nonsense are you talking about! If you keep talking, I won't treat you anymore."

Cui Yuqing smiled and said nothing more.

Nian Susu took his pulse and asked about his symptoms, and diagnosed him with type 1 diabetes, which had already caused kidney failure. In short... it was incurable.

If it were in modern times, there would be ways to save the patient, but this was in ancient times, and kidney failure could not be cured simply by taking Chinese medicine and acupuncture.

Cui Yuqing's disease has reached the advanced stage. Even with medication and acupuncture treatment, it is only a temporary solution and not a cure for the disease.

Seeing that Nian Susu looked serious after taking the pulse and didn't speak for a long time, Xiao Yunzheng couldn't help but ask: "How is Lingling? Can you still be well? I can give you as much silver as you need!"

She lowered her eyes and shook her head.

Cui Yuqing's reaction was much calmer. As a patient, he also had to comfort Xiao Yunzheng, "It's okay. Miss Nian is not the first person to say this. I'm numb to those words. Why are you sad?"

Xiao Yunzheng curled her lips and did not answer.

Nian Susu pulled Xiao Yunzheng aside and said in a low voice, "I have another way to treat Master Cui's illness, but I don't know if it will work."

Xiao Yunzheng's eyes lit up again.

"Don't hold your hopes too high." Nian Susu was really scared. She didn't want Xiao Yunzheng to look at her with disappointment, so she could only give her a shot of prevention.

Xiao Yunzheng's eyes darkened, and she nodded and asked, "What is that method? Do you need my help?"

"No, I will tell you the result. During this time, you should stay with Master Cui and prepare for the worst."

"it is good."

The two parted ways. Nian Susu came out of Taihe Teahouse, found a remote alley, and seeing that there was no one around, he went in and summoned the system.

[Host, you haven't called me for a long, long time. I miss you so much. Do you need my help again this time? ]

Nian Susu complained: I haven't seen you for more than a month, and you have upgraded again? You already have emotional awareness.

[Of course not. The host is working hard to complete the mission, so we can't slack off! ]

Nian Susu: Oh, so have you evolved the ability to complete tasks automatically?

[This is against the system rules and cannot be done. ]

Nian Susu was too lazy to waste time talking to it and asked directly: If I use the resurrection pill to save Cui Yuqing, can he survive?

【cannot. 】

Nian Susu: Why? Are the props in your system only usable on the hero and heroine and important characters? Not NPCs and supporting characters?

The system feels so unfair, I can even hear the tone of grievance from the mechanical voice.

[It's not because of this. The resurrection pill and all other resurrection items can only work in cases of accidental death due to external injuries. Cui Yuqing had a hereditary disease, and the cause of his death was kidney failure. Even if you save him, his kidney function will not improve. At most, he can live a few more minutes. Why waste the items? ]

[Also, the author gave Cui Yuqing the setting of congenital type 1 diabetes. Can you change the setting? ]

Nian Susu's heart sank.

If the system can't save her, she really has no other choice.
