The man was hit by a strong force and staggered, and gave way.

"Why are you hitting people?"

The sound was loud and immediately attracted the attention of many people.

Liu Wenyue walked over and snorted coldly, "Miss Jiang is so arrogant! She even dares to hit people from the Imperial Hospital!"

Jiang Ningwan smiled coldly, "Yeah, not only will I fight, I'll also file a complaint with the emperor!"

"It was during an epidemic, with hundreds of people throughout the palace falling ill. The emperor was deeply concerned about the situation, yet the Imperial Hospital neglected its duties and used insect-infested herbs for testing."

"Are you deliberately not wanting to cure the disease?"

"Or is it that the entire Imperial Hospital is out of good medicinal materials? Did someone embezzle them? We must take this opportunity to get to the bottom of this!"

Jiang Ningwan's powerful voice echoed throughout the Imperial Hospital.

But Liu Wenyue was panicking, "You're talking nonsense! Stop slandering me!"

"Your Majesty will decide whether I am slandering you or not, but you must take a look at these insect-infested herbs."

Jiang Ningwan dragged the medicine basket and walked out of the Imperial Hospital.

Liu Wenyue looked panicked and quickly winked at Doctor Xu, asking him to stop Jiang Ningwan.

"Someone must have sent the wrong herbs. How can the people in the pharmacy do their job? Send the new herbs over quickly!" Doctor Xu scolded.

The people in the medicine cabinet immediately nodded and agreed.

Jiang Ningwan didn't stop until the new medicinal materials were delivered to the west wing.

Liu Wenyue's face looked extremely ugly. Jiang Ningwan was such a troublesome problem!

It seems that the tricks I usually use on Zhang Yunsong can't be used on Jiang Ningwan.

Jiang Ningwan returned to the yard.

Zhang Yunsong saw the medicinal herbs in the yard, his face filled with joy and gratitude, "Miss Jiang, thank you so much!"

After saying that, he bowed solemnly to Jiang Ningwan.

"You're welcome. Treating an epidemic is no small matter, and we can't afford to make mistakes with the medicinal materials. We have to fight for it if we have to."

Zhang Yunsong smiled bitterly, "I'm ashamed that Miss Jiang had to intervene in this matter."

"Let's put aside the polite words. Does Doctor Zhang have any ideas for a prescription to treat the epidemic?"

Although she now knows the cure for the epidemic, she cannot take away Zhang Yunsong's credit.

But judging from the time, it would take Zhang Yunsong more than a month to develop the prescription.

Over the past month, thousands of people have died in Kyoto.

Another purpose of her coming to the Imperial Hospital was to guide Zhang Yunsong to develop a prescription faster.

The sooner the prescription comes out, the more people can be saved.

"I have two prescriptions. Miss Jiang also knows medicine. Why don't you help me take a look?"

Jiang Ningwan nodded.

Then he discussed it with Zhang Yunsong.

She also took out the sachet and took out the herbs inside, and they studied it together.

Then Zhang Yunsong prepared a new prescription.

On the same day, a decoction was prepared and given to the patient to drink. The reaction was observed and recorded.

There were only two of them, and they had to take care of six patients.

It was late at night when Jiang Ningwan finished her work. She returned to her room and lay down. The cold and hard bed and the musty bedding made it difficult for her to fall asleep.

I woke up at dawn and started a new busy day.

After two days, Jiang Ningwan developed obvious coughing symptoms.

After feeding the patient medicine, Jiang Ningwan stood up and felt a little dizzy, so she held onto the wall and the medicine bowl fell to the ground and broke.

"Miss Jiang!" Zhang Yunsong hurried over and helped her sit down.

After taking his pulse, Zhang Yunsong's face suddenly changed, and he looked worried. "You... are sick."

When the symptoms appeared, Jiang Ningwan had a premonition in her heart.

She had been very careful about her contact with patients, but she didn't expect to be infected so soon.

"You go and rest, I'll take care of this." Zhang Yunsong became more and more anxious. He had to develop a prescription as soon as possible!

After helping Jiang Ningwan back to the room, Zhang Yunsong immediately poured her a cup of hot water. However, the moment he handed her the hot water, he froze slightly when he saw the cup in his hand.

There were no jade cups with this kind of flower pattern in the Imperial Medical Bureau.

This is something only concubines in the harem would use.

Turning his head to look at Jiang Ningwan who had started to have a fever and sweat, Zhang Yunsong had a hint of suspicion in his mind.

His eyes turned cold, he clenched the teacup and stood up to leave.

Hearing the door close, Jiang Ningwan also felt drowsy.

Late at night, when his head was groggy, he faintly heard the door open. Subconsciously feeling uneasy, Jiang Ningwan pried open his eyelids and saw a blurry figure walking in.

"Doctor Zhang, is that you?" Jiang Ningwan tried hard to see who was coming, but her vision was blurry.

The dark figure slowly came to the bedside, chuckled, and reached out to touch Jiang Ningwan's cheek. "It's such a pity that such a beautiful woman died like this."

"You're so ill, and you won't live long anyway. I'll let you have a quick death before you die."

Jiang Ningwan's head buzzed and her hair stood on end instantly.

She tried to get up, but she was too weak and the man easily pushed her down on the bed.

Jiang Ningwan's heart was in her throat as she was overcome with fear. She struggled and said angrily, "I've been infected with the disease, aren't you afraid?"

The man grabbed her arm tightly and said with a smile, "I just happened to have syphilis and I don't have much time left. Let's go down together and become a ghost couple."

As he spoke, he leaned over and kissed Jiang Ningwan.

Jiang Ningwan's scalp felt numb, and she struggled with all her might. She felt the dagger in her sleeve and swung it out fiercely.

"Ah! Bitch!" The man was forced to retreat a few steps with a bloody wound on his face.

Jiang Ningwan held a dagger for self-defense and tried to escape from the room.

The dagger that could cut through iron like mud made the man afraid to get close. He suddenly picked up the stool and smashed it towards Jiang Ningwan's arm.

The stool hit Jiang Ningwan's arm hard, and Jiang Ningwan fell to the ground with severe pain, still holding the dagger tightly in his hand.

The man grabbed the leg of the stool, held her arm, and hit her hard again and again.

"Ah!" The severe pain made Jiang Ningwan's hair stand on end and his whole body tremble. In the end, he couldn't hold the dagger in his hand.

Seeing this, the man immediately snatched the dagger from her hand and threw it at the door.

He grabbed Jiang Ningwan's shoulders, turned her over, and grabbed her clothes, trying to tear them open.

Fear and helplessness made Jiang Ningwan's veins bulge. He tried his best but couldn't stop it. His eyes turned red and a line of tears rolled down.

Why was there such a big commotion, yet the Imperial Hospital was completely silent?

"Help……"

The man laughed triumphantly, "No one will come tonight. Even Doctor Zhang ran away."

Just when Jiang Ningwan felt desperate.

The door was pushed open.

A great force pulled the man away from her.

Jiang Ningwan hadn't seen the person coming yet, she only heard the sound of a wheelchair turning, and then the ink-black sleeves blocked her face.

The next moment, the sharp dagger pierced the man's throat, and blood splattered.

A strong smell of blood spread.

The man's body was thrown directly out of the room.

After waving away his sleeves, Jiang Ningwan could see the figure clearly. In the dim light, the stern face gradually became clear.

"Sixteenth Uncle? Is that you?"

Qin Shuangchi remained silent, his clear eyes full of murderous intent. He untied his ink-black cloak and draped it over Jiang Ningwan.

"Xiao Lan, deal with the blood in the room." After saying that, he turned the wheelchair with his pale, bony fingers and left the room.

Xiao Lan then went in, carried Jiang Ningwan back to the bed, and cleaned up the bloodstains on the floor.

"Miss Jiang, please rest first. It's safe here." After saying that, Xiao Lan left the room.

Covered in a soft and warm cloak, Jiang Ningwan's consciousness gradually became blurred and she fell into a deep sleep.

But at this moment, the atmosphere in the Imperial Hospital was solemn because of the corpses on the ground and the sudden arrival of King Chu.

All the imperial doctors came together.

When Liu Wenyue saw the corpse on the ground, his face suddenly changed.
