Xiao Ruize didn't expect Jiang Cheng to agree directly.

And you agreed so quickly.

"Didn't the Second Prince come to you? Didn't you agree to his request?"

Otherwise, people are all cheap.

Jiang Cheng sneered in his heart and said, "How can that be possible? How can the Second Prince compare to you? You are the Crown Prince."

Xiao Ruize felt elated by these compliments.

Yes, even though the second brother has been fighting with him for so many years, he has not been able to shake his position as the crown prince, right?

Anyone with a discerning eye should be able to see who is most beneficial to him or her.

He attributed it all to his own personal charm.

After all, he is the crown prince, and he has much more prospects than the second prince.

He was very proud that Jiang Cheng gave up Xiao Jingtong and chose him.

Jiang Cheng didn't care what he thought, as long as his goal was achieved.

When he returned home, Jiang Cheng went straight to Jiang Rou's yard.

Sure enough, I saw Jiang Rou and Zhang Cheng in the pharmacy.

Two people are studying an ancient book.

I don’t know what Zhang Cheng said, but Jiang Rou came up with a new idea.

Zhang Cheng looked at Jiang Rou for a long time, and suddenly sighed:

"No wonder the person who taught you back then expressed such emotion. It's true that the younger generation pushes the older generation forward. If you were a man, your achievements would definitely surpass mine."

Jiang Rou blushed when she was praised like that.

"Master, you taught me well."

Zhang Cheng shook his head and said, "With my ability, I am not worthy of being your master. From now on, we should still address each other as equals."

He really meant what he said.

Jiang Rou was stunned: "How can this be possible?"

Zhang Cheng waved his hand and said, "Don't be so pedantic. I am only a few years older than you. I am not worthy of being called your master."

Since the rules said so, Jiang Rou naturally wouldn't be shy anymore.

This world always has many harsh criticisms on women.

Jiang Rou was very happy that she could study medicine at home.

Her father never asked her to behave in a certain way, nor did he require her to choose only female workers and women's virtues.

As she was thinking this, she looked up and saw her father standing outside the door for who knows how long.

Jiang Rou ran over in surprise: "Daddy."

Jiang Cheng touched her soft hair: "Are you happy learning?"

Jiang Rou nodded.

The charter also came out at this time.

"Miss Jiang's medical skills are not inferior to mine, but it's a pity that Miss Jiang is just a woman."

Jiang Cheng smiled indifferently: "So what if she's a woman? Who can say that women can't hold up half the sky in the future?"

As they were talking, Xiaosong came in with a eunuch.

After they came in, they went straight to the charter.

The eunuch bowed to Jiang Cheng first, then said, "Doctor Zhang, the Empress Dowager wants to see you."

Zhang Cheng asked, "But what's wrong with the Queen Mother?"

The eunuch shook his head.

"The Empress Dowager is fine. Today, the Princess brought the County Princess to the palace to pay respects to the Empress Dowager. The County Princess suddenly fell ill, so we asked the imperial doctors from the Imperial Hospital to come and see her."

Zhang Cheng said quickly, "Please wait for me, sir. I'll go get my medicine box."

The eldest princess is the only biological sister of the current emperor.

In her early years, she married the second son of Marquis Boyang. The couple lived in harmony, but they had problems with having children. In all these years, they only had one daughter, whom she loved like a treasure.

I guess something must have happened to the county princess and the princess couldn't solve it, so she came to the Empress Dowager for help.

When Zhang Cheng arrived, all the other imperial doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau had already arrived. They were all standing in the corridor, whispering to each other about the patient's condition.

The eunuch introduced the regulations into the inner hall.

"The other doctors have already seen the patient, and we are just waiting for Doctor Zhang to take the case."

Zhang Cheng had no suspicion and followed the eunuch inside.

The Queen Mother and the Princess were already waiting inside.

The Queen Mother and the eldest princess were sitting on chairs. The eldest princess looked painful and covered her face with her hands, looking very sad.

The Queen Mother was trying to calm her down.

He was just about to go over to pay his respects and ask about the situation.

As a result, before he took two steps, a porcelain bottle was thrown out from behind the screen and shattered in front of his eyes with a clang.

"Get out of here! I don't treat patients! Get out of here!"

Zhang Cheng was so frightened that if he had walked a step faster, he would have been hit on the forehead by the porcelain vase.

The person inside was obviously the county lord.

The princess said in great pain: "Doctor Zhang, what do you think we should do with her?"

What? You're asking me this? He has to see the patient to know what the problem is!

Looking at Zhang Cheng's expression, it was clear that he had no other options. The Queen Mother waved her hand in anger and said, "Another useless guy."

The eldest princess looked even more miserable. She covered her face and said, "What should I do?"

The Queen Mother frowned and tried to appease him: "If it doesn't work, ask your brother to post an imperial decree and find a miracle doctor for Qiao'er."

Zhang Cheng thought for a moment, then plucked up the courage to ask, "I wonder what the county lady's illness is?"

The eldest princess glanced at Zhang Cheng and didn't want to say anything more, but then she thought that Zhang Cheng was the only one among so many imperial doctors who had asked her.

She sighed and said, "I don't know what happened to Qiao'er some time ago, but her face was covered with rashes. She didn't want to see anyone, let alone let the doctor see her face."

Zhang Cheng thought about it for a moment and said, "Is it because all doctors are men?"

The eldest princess then looked up at him and said, "Of course."

Zhang Cheng suddenly thought of Jiang Rou.

"In this case, why not find a female doctor for the county lady?"

When the princess heard this, she asked hurriedly, "Where is the female doctor?"

Only then did Zhang Cheng realize that he had said the wrong thing.

Jiang Rou is Jiang Cheng's daughter, and Jiang Cheng is a new noble and favorite. It would be fine for him to just play with her at home, but if he recommends Jiang Rou out, Jiang Cheng will kill him.

Then the pink bow will not be hanging on his head, but around his neck.

The Queen Mother was delighted when she heard that there was a female doctor. She thought that the other party could not show up casually, but Qiao'er was her most beloved grandchild.

She said sternly, "Doctor Zhang, you'd better tell the truth! If anything happens to Qiao'er, I will make you pay with your lives!"

Zhang Cheng was so frightened that he fell to his knees: "I dare not, she is the daughter of Lord Jiang of Jiangcheng, her name is Jiang Rou."

The Empress Dowager was somewhat familiar with this name. She was a close friend of He Congling, who was raised by her side. She had even come to her in the past.

"It turns out to be her!"

The eldest princess asked: "Can you trust her medical skills?"

After all, I've never heard of it before.

The charter says: "Not below the ministers."

After getting Cheng Zhang's guarantee, the Queen Mother immediately issued an imperial decree to invite Jiang Rou into the palace.

After Jiang Rou arrived, all the imperial doctors outside had been dismissed, leaving only Zhang Cheng here.

She first went to pay a visit to the Queen Mother and the eldest princess.

The Queen Mother waved her hand, ignoring her greetings: "Go and see the county lady first, and we can talk about other things later."

Jiang Rou stood up: "Yes!"

The county lady behind the screen was still angry and would throw things at anyone who came close. Zhang Cheng tried several times and almost lost his life.

Seeing Jiang Rou coming, Zhang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.

My eyes are full of you: You're finally here, you really saved my life.

Jiang Rou first tentatively walked behind the screen.

"County Lady, can I come in?"

The county lady was very resistant to men approaching her, but was much gentler towards women, at least she didn't smash anything.

This made Zhang Cheng feel again that he was not worthy. Why was the gap so big?
