Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?
Chapter 262 Can you cure this poison?
Prince Chu's Mansion.
This wasn't Song Ruozhen's first time visiting the Chu Prince's Mansion; she had been there before. However, the Chu Prince's Mansion at night felt different from the one during the day.
"Are the imperial physicians still here?" Song Ruozhen asked.
"We sent them back first. They've tried many methods these past few days, but they can only temporarily stabilize Yu Cheng's condition. They've searched through all the medical books, but they still haven't found a cure."
Chu Junting originally thought the imperial physician's medical skills were quite superb, but thinking about Song Yanzhou and Song Yi'an's illnesses, everyone said that there was no cure, but Ruozhen cured them as soon as she made a move.
This shows that Ruozhen's medical skills were far superior to those of the Imperial Medical Academy.
“Miss Ruan also came to us today. She was very worried about Young Master Ruan, so I told her that you had found a miracle doctor who cured my brother, so she could rest assured,” Song Ruozhen said.
Chu Junting understood, "Ruan Yucheng always dotes on his younger sister, and the siblings have a very good relationship."
"Third brother, you've arrived!"
Just as Yun Wang came out of the house, he bumped into Chu Junting, who had returned. He was surprised to see Song Ruozhen with him.
"Miss Song is here too!"
"Greetings, Prince Yun." Song Ruozhen bowed.
Prince Yun couldn't help but chuckle, "Brother, you're really fast. You only went to interrogate her this afternoon, and you couldn't wait to tell Miss Song the situation tonight?"
But what are you doing here? Visiting Yucheng?
He now fully understood that his elder brother was incredibly attentive to Miss Song. This usually busy man, who was rarely seen, could always find time to be with the woman he loved.
All those times when I said I was too busy to see him were just a pretense!
Chu Junting didn't care about Chu Yungui's teasing; it was simply the truth.
"How is Yu Cheng doing now?"
Yun Wang shrugged. "It's the same as before. His life is not in danger, but the poison still can't be cured. And I think that after these few days, the situation seems to be getting worse."
The bluish-purple color on his lips was getting deeper, and he must have felt pain today, though he stubbornly refused to say it, I could tell.
They've known each other for years, so there's bound to be some unspoken understanding between them; even if they don't say it, you can tell.
Upon hearing this, Song Ruozhen and Chu Junting exchanged a glance, then quickly went inside without further delay.
Inside the room, Ruan Yucheng lay on the bed, his handsome face now pale, yet he still joked.
"I told you I was fine, why did you come back?"
When Ruan Yucheng turned around and saw that it was Chu Junting who had brought a girl he had never met before, he asked in surprise, "Junting, this is..."
"The renowned physician I specially invited for you is Miss Song Ruozhen from the Song family," Chu Junting explained.
Ruan Yucheng was slightly taken aback, and couldn't help but take another look at Song Ruozhen. This girl is really beautiful!
In just two days, he had learned about this special Miss Song from the King of Yun. It was not only because she was intelligent and beautiful, but also because she had the courage to annul her engagement on her wedding day. She was truly a heroine!
Of course, the most important point is that the King of Chu actually liked her!
It's like an iron tree blooming!
Song Ruozhen was also observing Ruan Yucheng, not out of curiosity about the man, but because she frowned unconsciously at his illness.
On the way here, Chu Junting had already described Ruan Yucheng's condition after being poisoned, and even had a copy made out how the imperial physician had been using the medicine over the past few days for her to see.
"Young Master Ruan, let me take your pulse first."
"Thank you for your help, Miss Song."
Ruan Yucheng was extremely polite, his eyes silently questioning Chu Junting: He had never heard that this girl could cure diseases before!
Chu Junting's calm demeanor was clearly seen as showing off by Ruan Yucheng and King Yun!
As Song Ruozhen examined his pulse, her suspicions became even more certain. She immediately turned to Chu Yungui and said, "Prince Yun, please do me a favor."
"Me?" Chu Yungui pointed at himself, surprised but also a little delighted. He glanced at Chu Junting defiantly. His sister-in-law didn't ask his brother for help, but instead asked him!
Chu Junting was also puzzled, but he didn't show it.
“Your Highness, please take off Young Master Ruan’s socks and press the acupoints I’m referring to.”
Song Ruozhen spoke up. As a doctor, she naturally didn't care about these things, but since this was ancient times, it was inappropriate for men and women to have close contact. She had no choice but to ask someone for help.
When Chu Yungui heard that he was to take off Ruan Yucheng's smelly socks, the smile on his face vanished instantly. He looked at Ruan Yucheng with disgust; this guy definitely had the smelliest feet among them!
Ruan Yucheng was also a little embarrassed, but he couldn't help but laugh when he saw Chu Yungui's terrible expression.
"But I don't know the acupoints. Should I call the imperial physician back?" Chu Yungui made a last-ditch effort.
However, Chu Junting pulled a branch from a vase and handed it to Song Ruozhen, saying, "Just point it out to him."
Chu Yungui: "..."
As her socks were removed, Song Ruozhen pointed to a spot with a twig and said, "Press here."
Upon seeing this, Chu Yungui pressed down. As soon as he pressed down, Ruan Yucheng gasped, and a fine layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. His whole face seemed to be straining, as if he was enduring great pain.
"Why does it hurt so much? Even the imperial physicians couldn't find this," Chu Yungui asked.
“This is poisoning from the Crimson Blood Black Scorpion,” Song Ruozhen admitted. “After being poisoned by this, you will feel weak all over, unable to eat or sleep, and experience abdominal pain, which will worsen at midnight.”
The toxin takes effect slowly and will not kill immediately, but it is a slow and agonizing process.
Now that Young Master Ruan has been poisoned for several days, he must be suffering from insomnia and unbearable pain. If this continues for a few more days, the pain will intensify again, and he will eventually die from the agony.
The people inside the room felt a chill run down their spines upon hearing this. Such viciousness clearly indicated an intention to torture someone to death.
"Yu Cheng, have you been like this every night for the past few days?" Chu Junting asked, frowning.
Ruan Yucheng hadn't shown any unusual behavior during the day in the past few days, and he hadn't mentioned the pain at night at all, so they didn't know about the situation.
Seeing that Song Ruozhen knew everything perfectly after taking his pulse, Ruan Yucheng secretly admired her. Knowing that he could no longer hide it, he said:
"How can you not feel pain when you're poisoned? I'm too lazy to explain, lest I only cause you more trouble."
Chu Junting and Chu Yungui both looked unpleasant, but they understood Ruan Yucheng's nature and knew that this was indeed something he would do.
"Ruozhen, can you cure this poison?"
Seeing the worry in the man's eyes, Song Ruozhen nodded. "Don't worry, I can solve it."
Upon hearing this, the tense and solemn atmosphere instantly vanished, and everyone unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief and felt at ease.
"Miss Song, I never knew your medical skills were so superb!"
Chu Yungui couldn't help but exclaim in amazement. These past few days, he had thought that everyone in the Imperial Hospital was useless, unable to cure even a single poison. He never expected that Miss Song would know how to do it!
