The Rise of a General's Daughter-in-Law Doctor

Everyone looked at Judge Zhang and then at Li Muxia in disbelief, only those who knew the truth remained calm.

The Emperor: "Li Muxia, Imperial Physician Zhang said you are a medical genius, is that true?"

Now is not the time to lie, otherwise it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor. Li Muxia nodded and said, "Your Majesty, yes."

At this moment, Physician Zhang said to the Emperor, "Your Majesty is very kind. With Doctor Xia here, the Sixth Prince's wound will be much easier to treat."

Li Muxia examined the Sixth Prince's injuries and found that the bleeding had stopped; all that was needed now was to stitch them up. Having confirmed the Sixth Prince's condition, Li Muxia said to the Emperor, "Your Majesty, please have someone move the Sixth Prince to a clean place. Also, please send someone to the General's Mansion to fetch my medical kit."

Upon hearing this, the Emperor quickly gave instructions as Li Muxia had requested.

Wei Shuyue looked at Li Muxia in disbelief. She never expected that Li Muxia was the legendary Immortal Physician. Her jealousy was almost overflowing.

Why, why Li Muxia?

Feng Jingxin was also full of surprise. Although they knew that the doctor in their family was a fake after the epidemic ended, no one would have thought that the real doctor was Li Muxia.

Feng Bowen stared at Li Muxia with a sinister look, realizing that the person who had been sabotaging their plans was right in front of them.

Countless young men from prominent families present regretted not proposing marriage to the general's mansion sooner.

While retrieving the medicine box, Li Muxia gave the Sixth Prince a thorough examination. The Sixth Prince woke up and, looking at Li Muxia, subconsciously called out, "Fairy Sister."

Upon hearing the Sixth Prince's voice, the Emperor and Consort Feng both came to his bedside.

Consort Feng grasped the Sixth Prince's uninjured hand tightly, and said tearfully, "My son, you're awake. How are you feeling?"

The sixth prince shifted his gaze from Li Muxia to his mother, and said weakly, "Mother, I'm in so much pain."

Consort Feng quickly said, "Miss Li, the prince says he's in pain."

Li Muxia respectfully replied, "Your Majesty, the Sixth Prince has already been given painkillers. The medicine will take effect soon. Please wait patiently with the Sixth Prince."

Consort Feng looked at the Sixth Prince and comforted him with heartache, "Lan'er, hang in there, the pain will stop soon."

The sixth prince, being a sensible person, nodded and looked at Li Muxia, saying, "Yes, I believe in Fairy Sister."

The Emperor was amused by the Sixth Prince's words and asked, "Why did you say she was a fairy, Sixth Prince?"

Sixth Prince: "Because the fairy sister is beautiful and can make Little Six not feel pain."

Everyone was amused by the Sixth Prince's words.

Not long after, Li Muxia brought her first-aid kit.

Li Muxia said to the Emperor, "Your Majesty, I need to stitch up the Sixth Prince's wound, but there are too many people around, and I'm afraid there's a risk of infection."

As soon as she finished speaking, the Emperor understood her meaning and ordered everyone to leave. Consort Feng wanted to stay with the Sixth Prince, but the Emperor also asked her to leave.

After hesitating for a moment, Judge Zhang finally spoke up and said, "Your Majesty, Miss Li, I have a favor to ask."

The Emperor looked at Zhang, the Imperial Physician, kneeling on the ground and understood his meaning. He also hoped that Zhang would stay and learn so that he could be used when the palace needed suturing in the future. However, he also understood that every doctor had his own unique skills, which were generally not passed on to outsiders.

However, he still held onto a sliver of hope and let Judge Zhang speak.

Judge Zhang said, "Miss Li, could you allow me to stay, even if it's just to assist you?"

As a judge, he adopted a very humble attitude.

Upon hearing this, Li Muxia smiled slightly and said, "Judge Zhang, you flatter me. I am just a junior in front of you and do not deserve such a compliment. If you could stay and offer some guidance, I would be extremely grateful."

Upon hearing this, the Emperor's impression of Li Muxia improved even more. He was not arrogant because of the Emperor's favor, and he had a great vision, making him worthy of his Jincheng.

Judge Zhang was as happy as a three-year-old child, and rushed to Li Muxia's side, completely forgetting that the Emperor was still there.

Once only Li Muxia and Zhang Yuanpan were in the room, Li Muxia began preparing to suture.

Throughout the entire process, Judge Zhang acted like a curious child, but dared not ask too many questions, afraid of disturbing Li Muxia.

However, Li Muxia noticed Zhang Yuanpan's doubts and answered them one by one.

First, there was the anesthesia, which needs no explanation. However, Li Muxia's anesthetic powder was specially made and had a very significant effect on nerve paralysis. The Sixth Prince could not feel anything for a short while, and he fell into a coma.

Li Muxia took out medical alcohol to disinfect the wound and kindly explained the production process and principle of medical alcohol to Zhang Yuanpan.

The stitching process was described in such detail, almost like a teacher's instruction.

After all the stitches were finished, Dr. Zhang felt much more energetic and couldn't wait to find a place to practice alone.

While Li Muxia was stitching up the sixth prince, the emperor's birthday banquet was still in progress. However, the emperor was not in the mood to entertain everyone, so he let everyone move around freely.

In the Imperial Garden, Wei Shuyue looked at Feng Jingxin and said, "Cousin."

Feng Jingxin looked at Wei Shuyue with a mocking expression: "Oh, who did I see before? It's my cousin Wei, the most beautiful woman in the capital. What's wrong? Your good friend isn't playing with you anymore?"

Wei Shuyue sensed the sarcasm in Feng Jingxin's words, but still smiled and said, "Cousin, what are you saying? Even if I'm stupid, I still know how to distinguish between close and distant relatives."

Hearing Wei Shuyue back down, Feng Jingxin's mood improved somewhat: "Is there something you need?"

Wei Shuyue glanced at Zhang Mengjie next to Feng Jingxin and said, "Cousin, I do have something I want to talk to you about privately."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Mengjie wisely made an excuse to leave.

After the person walked away, Feng Jingxin asked, "What's going on? Why are you being so mysterious?"

Wei Shuyue: "Cousin, haven't you noticed yet? Prince Chen's feelings for Li Muxia are about to rekindle."

Upon hearing this, Feng Jingxin's face flushed red, and she roared, "What nonsense are you spouting?"

Seeing the stares from those around them, Wei Shuyue quickly smiled and pulled the person away, whispering, "Cousin, I'm only doing this for your own good."

Although Feng Jingxin was very angry, she also had some doubts when she thought about Prince Chen's recent reactions.

Seeing that Feng Jingxin had calmed down, Wei Shuyue continued, "Today..."

From a distance, Nangong Yuqing watched their every move. Although she couldn't hear what they were saying, she could tell from their expressions that they were plotting something.

The maid beside Nangong Yuqing looked at her curiously and asked, "Princess, what are you looking at?"

Nangong Yuqing shifted her gaze and said, "The young ladies of the Eastern Kingdom are not as innocent as we see them. They might be even more ruthless than those vicious bandits when they do bad things."

The maid looked at Dongfang Yuqing with a puzzled expression. Dongfang Yuqing chuckled and flicked the maid's forehead, saying, "Alright, have you forgotten what the Empress Dowager told you? Quickly put away your curiosity."

Upon hearing this, the maid stuck out her tongue and truly lost her curiosity.

Nangong Yuqing glanced at Wei Shuyue and Feng Jingxin one last time, and sneered inwardly: It seems someone is about to be in trouble.
