"Miracle Doctor, the things are here."

Yan Xiao carried a wine jar on his shoulder and held a copper basin filled with water in one hand, along with several clean white cloths.

He was incredibly fast, his feet barely touching the ground, yet the water in the basin remained completely still, not even a ripple was stirred, demonstrating his profound skill.

"Put it there."

Xue Ruanruan pointed to the carved wooden table and turned to get busy again.

"Little sister, is there anything your sister-in-law can do for you?"

Seeing Xue Ruanruan busy at work while she and her maid were just standing around doing nothing, Madam Dong felt a little guilty.

The main problem is that, for some reason, the Regent insists on standing here with them, which makes him very uncomfortable. It would be better to do some work to distract himself.

"My eldest sister-in-law helped me hand over the tools from the medicine box, and Tao Hong helped wash the handkerchief clean."

Xue Ruanruan realized that she had two more helpers available and quickly put them to use.

"Miracle Doctor, please tell me what tasks I can do, and don't hesitate to ask."

Yan Xiao watched curiously as Xue Ruanruan cleaned the wounds of the injured person on the bed, not understanding why she would pour strong liquor directly onto the wounds. Just thinking about it made her teeth ache.

He had only heard of the art of limb reattachment, but had never witnessed it firsthand.

The miracle doctor girl is so amazing; she even knows this. My admiration for Xue Ruanruan has reached a new level.

"Guard Yan, go and find me a few planks of wood, about the same length, and they must be flat."

"Alright, I'll go find it right away."

Yan Xiao happily agreed.

As soon as he said this, he felt his master start to radiate coldness again.

Thinking back, I don't think I said anything wrong. Could it be that my master is suddenly angry because he's jealous that I can help the divine doctor?

Despite the thought, Yan Xiao shook her head violently, erasing the unrealistic idea from her mind.

How could that be? Absolutely impossible.

When has my master, who is so aloof, ever done such a thing?

"If there is anything I can help you with, please speak freely."

After Yan Xiao left, Murong Xun coughed a few times to cover his embarrassment and took the initiative to speak.

Xue Ruanruan turned around and looked Murong Xun up and down to confirm that it was him. Without saying a word, she turned back to continue cleaning the patient's wound.

"Cough cough..."

Murong Xun coughed a few times to cover his embarrassment, as if to remind the other party that no task had been assigned to him yet.

"If Your Highness has nothing else to do, please help me hold the patient down. When the severed limb is reattached, the skin and flesh will need to be sutured, which may cause the patient to resist violently."

"Um"

Murong Xun's eyes lit up, and he gave a haughty snort. He strode to the bedside and pressed the injured person down on the bed with his hands.

The posture was just like that of a constable arresting a criminal, making the other party unable to move at all.

Xue Ruanruan stared blankly at a simple and brutal man with her clear black and white eyes. This was a patient, not a criminal. How could he be so brutal?

"has a problem?"

Murong Xun looked at Xue Ruanruan with an innocent expression, wondering what he had done wrong to make her look at him like that.

“Your Highness, this is an injured person, not a criminal. There’s no need to use so much force. When we do the stitching later, we just need to hold him down so it won’t interfere with my stitching.”

"Pfft"

Dong couldn't help but burst out laughing.

It is said that the Regent is cold-hearted, ruthless, and kills without blinking an eye, but what I see now is not like that.

His helpless expression, wanting to help but not being able to help in the right way, actually made him quite adorable.

"Sister-in-law, bring me a new handkerchief."

Xue Ruanruan's eyelids twitched, and she quickly changed the subject, asking Madam Dong to hand over the new handkerchief.

Despite being reborn, the fear of Murong Xun seemed to be deeply imprinted in the depths of her soul, impossible to erase no matter what.

This feeling is not simply fear, but more of a deep-seated awe and apprehension.

"Okay, here we come."

Ms. Dong clearly realized that her behavior was quite inappropriate, and quickly agreed.

She was incredibly audacious, daring to mock even the Regent. If her younger sister hadn't spoken up in time, she wouldn't know how to face this dilemma.

Xue Ruanruan carefully cleaned the dirt and blood from the injured man's severed limb, reattached the severed limb to his leg, and stitched the broken part together with special catgut sutures.

The sound of needle and thread piercing flesh filled the room, and everyone present was stunned by what they saw.

Murong Xun's eyes showed astonishment, as if he had seen something unbelievable.

He had never seen before that severed human limbs could be sewn back together like mending clothes!

This miraculous medical skill was simply beyond his imagination.

Although it was rumored more than a decade ago that the divine physician Ling Xuzi used such medical skills to heal soldiers who were seriously wounded on the battlefield.

But rumors are just rumors. To this day, no one can prove it, and no one can find the whereabouts of the divine physician Ling Xuzi.

He sometimes even suspected that the divine physician Ling Xuzi was a character fabricated by the General of the Nation to boost morale.

But now he no longer doubted it; instead, he was even more convinced that the divine doctor truly existed, he just hadn't found him yet.

And what is the relationship between this girl of unknown origin, whose appearance and the skin color on her hands are obviously different, and the divine doctor?

Murong Xun's mind was racing, but his face remained cold and indifferent as he quietly watched the woman carefully stitching up his skin.

Her every expression was full of focus and solemnity, her movements were elegant and skillful, and every stitch and thread was filled with endless delicacy and precision, as if she were completing a unique work of art.

He gazed at her figure, as if time itself had frozen. In that instant, he even forgot everything around him, completely immersed in her extraordinary medical skills.

"Strong liquor"

Xue Ruanruan didn't even look up, continuing to sew.

Madam Dong quickly poured a bowl of strong liquor from the wine jar and handed it to Xue Ruanruan, afraid of delaying her important business.

After the last stitch was completed, I picked up the wine glass, dipped my fingertip into the bowl, and gently flicked it. The wine turned into droplets of mist and sprinkled evenly over the sutured wound.

Murong Xun saw the woman's hand reach into the bowl, but he couldn't see clearly how she turned the wine into fine steam.

A fleeting glimmer of interest flashed in his deep, star-like eyes, vanishing in an instant, like a flame igniting in the darkness.

"Miracle doctor, the wooden plank has been found."

Yan Xiao excitedly took out a stack of brand-new wooden boards from outside. They were exactly the same in length, width, and thickness, without any difference.

Xue Ruanruan looked at the thick stack of wooden planks and couldn't help but facepalm. As expected of a guard in the Regent's Palace, his style of doing things was just like his master's—simple and brutal.

"What, is that not right?"

Yan Xiao thought she would receive praise from Xue Ruanruan, but unexpectedly saw the divine doctor looking at the wooden board with a helpless expression and a hint of sorrow in her eyes.

He couldn't help but feel nervous; could he have made a mistake?
