How did a street urchin from the film crew end up in a Northern Song Dynasty drama called "The

Doctor Qiu frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure on his face. He pushed open the door forcefully and shouted at the entrance, "I already told you yesterday that I am helpless against this plague. Why are you bothering me again today?"

A voice came from outside the door: "Doctor Qiu, I am Vice Envoy Wang from the Imperial Medical Academy. May I trouble you to open the door and allow us to come in for a talk?" Vice Envoy Wang asked earnestly.

Physician Qiu hurriedly replied, "Oh dear, Lord Wang, it's not that I intended to prevent you from entering, but I have unfortunately contracted a plague, and I'm afraid I might pass this terrible disease on to you, Vice Envoy Wang!" His words were full of helplessness.

Upon hearing this, Vice Envoy Wang pondered for a moment before asking, "In that case, it seems I was being presumptuous. May I ask, Doctor Qiu, have you recently treated any patients with fever, red spots on their bodies, and blisters?"

Without hesitation, Physician Qiu replied, "Is what Lord Wang is referring to chickenpox?"

Vice Envoy Wang's face lit up with joy as he hurriedly asked, "Doctor Qiu knows this is chickenpox, so he must have some knowledge of this disease, right? His Majesty has specially sent me here to investigate this matter. As for the specific treatment, I hope Doctor Qiu will not hesitate to offer his advice. If you can help me solve this problem, I will definitely report to His Majesty and ask for credit and reward for you!" At this point, Vice Envoy Wang could not hide his excitement.

"How dare I presume to claim credit! This disease is extremely contagious. We must carefully wipe several key parts of the patient's body with warm water to lower their body temperature. In addition, they need to drink a decoction made from Daqinggen (a type of Chinese herbal medicine) for it to be effective. Apart from that, I know nothing else," said Doctor Qiu humbly.

"Is such a treatment really necessary? I wonder if Doctor Qiu would allow me to come in so we can discuss this in detail?" Vice Envoy Wang hurriedly inquired.

"Oh dear, Lord Wang, it's not that I intentionally want to stop you from entering, but I myself have unfortunately contracted chickenpox! If you were to barge in now, you might also get infected. As for the specific treatment method, I actually heard about it from that young master of the Jin family. In my humble opinion, Lord Wang might as well go and find him to learn more!" Physician Qiu quickly explained.

"Oh? Young Master Jin? Which Jin family is it? Does Doctor Qiu know?" Vice Envoy Wang continued to press.

"Lord Wang, that is indeed all I know. At the time, I only saw that the young man was accompanied by attendants, so he must be from a high-ranking official's family or a wealthy merchant. In that case, it should not be difficult for you to find him, Lord Wang," Doctor Qiu replied truthfully.

"In that case, I thank Physician Qiu for his kind advice. I will take my leave now." With that, Vice Envoy Wang hurriedly turned and headed towards the palace…

At dawn, just as Jin Shuai was sound asleep, a sudden, rapid, and loud knocking broke the silence, jolting him awake. He rubbed his sleepy eyes, his face showing annoyance at being disturbed, and muttered, "Who is it? So early in the morning! Don't they know I'm sleeping?"

A soft female voice came from outside the door; it was Madam Liu. She replied softly, "Young master, someone has come to see you urgently. They say they're coming to the Imperial Medical Academy."
