The Sickly Regent Prince Who Was Abandoned as a Substitute Bride

Returning to the Prince's Mansion in the dark, Ye Jiuchen was practicing martial arts in the courtyard.

“Master…” An Ye knelt down respectfully.

"Hmm." Ye Jiuchen's gaze was indifferent. He stopped practicing martial arts and walked to a recliner under the shade of a tree, where he sat down. "What is it? Is there some problem with her...?"

"Reporting to Master, Miss Dongfang went to a blacksmith shop..." An Ye recounted in detail how Dongfang Wan'er wanted to have a thousand silver needles made, and added that he had already bought the blacksmith shop.

"Hmm, well done. This matter was handled well. Transfer our people over there and have them perform the silver needle treatment for her according to her request..." Ye Jiuchen nodded in satisfaction and gave the order.

"Yes, Master." Dark Night accepted the order and quietly withdrew.

After leaving the blacksmith's shop, Dongfang Wan'er hurried to a nearby pharmacy to get her medicine. She entered the shop and politely asked the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, I'd like to ask you something. Where can I buy this Tian Shan Snow Lotus?"

Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper looked surprised and shook his head, saying, "Oh dear, young lady, the Tianshan Snow Lotus is an extremely precious and rare medicinal herb. We don't have such a treasure in our little shop. However, I heard that ten years ago, the Divine Physician Dan found a Tianshan Snow Lotus. Perhaps you could ask him, but the Divine Physician Dan is not so easy to find!" The shopkeeper kindly reminded Dongfang Wan'er.

Dongfang Wan'er nodded gratefully and continued to ask, "Thank you for your guidance, shopkeeper! May I ask where the Divine Physician Dan lives?"

The shopkeeper pointed ahead and replied enthusiastically, "Just a short distance ahead, Jishi Tongrentang is the shop of Doctor Dan."

After thanking the shopkeeper, Dongfang Wan'er put down the silver in her hand and walked towards Jishi Tongrentang without hesitation.

In the carriage, Qiuqin looked at Dongfang Wan'er with a heart full of doubt and couldn't help but ask, "Miss, what are we going to do with Doctor Dan? Do you want him to examine the face of that heartless Second Miss? She's so vicious..." Qiuqin thought that Dongfang Wan'er was going to soften her heart towards Dongfang Mingzhu again.

"Silly girl, what are you thinking about? Didn't you hear me ask about the Tianshan Snow Lotus? That's the key medicine to detoxify your mother!" Dongfang Wan'er stretched out her jade-like fingers and gently tapped Qiuqin's forehead.

"That's good..." Qiuqin breathed a long sigh of relief after hearing this.

"Stop the carriage ahead! Carriages are not allowed to proceed further here..." Suddenly, a shout came from outside the carriage.

"What's going on?" Qiuqin asked loudly to the outside.

"Miss, they are from Jishi Tongrentang. There's already a long queue ahead, and carriages can't go any further; we'll have to walk," the coachman replied.

"Miss?" Qiuqin turned to look at Dongfang Wan'er, her eyes questioning.

"It's alright, let's go down then. After all, we can't break their rules," Dongfang Wan'er said calmly.

"Hmm, Miss, take your time..." Qiuqin carefully adjusted Dongfang Wan'er's veil and gently put a hat on her head, making sure the veil hanging down from the hat completely covered Dongfang. Then, she carefully helped Dongfang Wan'er down from the carriage.

"Here you go." Qiuqin handed a silver ingot to the coachman.

This carriage was specially ordered by Dongfang Wan'er to Qiuqin, in order to avoid revealing her true identity.

Dongfang Wan'er gazed quietly at the Jishi Tongrentang pharmacy before her, her eyes fixed on the long queue. She couldn't help but wonder: Just who is this Divine Doctor Dan? Is his medical skill really so extraordinary?

Filled with doubt, Dongfang Wan'er and Qiu Qin walked to the end of the line. The people around them were noisily discussing how superb the medical skills of the Divine Physician Dan were, and how he had successfully cured countless difficult and complicated diseases that had left people helpless.

"I've heard that Doctor Dan has a very eccentric personality, and not just anyone can meet him."

"Yes, I've come here many times, but I still haven't seen Doctor Dan."

As Dongfang Wan'er listened to these words, her curiosity grew even stronger. She really wanted to see the Divine Physician Dan with her own eyes and see if his medical skills were as superb as ordinary people said...

Just then, Dongfang Wan'er suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure—it was none other than the First Prince, Ye Jingchu...

"Get out of the way! Do you know who our master is? We request an audience with the Divine Physician Dan!" shouted the guard beside Ye Jingchu arrogantly.

"No matter who you are, if you come to our Jishi Tongrentang to see the divine doctor Dan, you must follow the rules! Line up..." The apprentice showed them no mercy.

"How dare you! This is the Crown Prince..." the guard said, drawing his sword.

"Step back!" The eldest prince, Ye Jingchu, promptly reprimanded the guards and took out a jade token from his robes, showing it to the medicine boy. "Thirteenth son, this is a token given by the Divine Physician Dan."

Ye Jingchu had only intended to test the waters, to see if his reputation would allow him to meet the Divine Doctor Dan, but it proved utterly futile. He had gone to great lengths to obtain the token, intending to use it only as a last resort, but now, because of the Oriental Pearl's affair, he had squandered such a precious opportunity. If the Oriental Pearl ultimately succeeded, that would be fine, but if it failed…

Ye Jingchu's eyes instantly turned cold, but quickly returned to normal. He took a deep breath and said to the apprentice, "Please, Thirteen, introduce me..."

This man named Shisanzi was the only disciple of the Divine Physician Dan, and he was usually very arrogant and rude.

"Why didn't you bring this out sooner? Come with me..." Thirteen took the token and led Ye Jingchu through another door.
