Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 185
Chapter 185 Be Provoked by an Envoy
Suddenly, Bai Junzhuo sat quietly by the side and watched the servants hurry in and out of the courtyard to deal with everything. After a month of silence, the place became lively again. No one was even surprised, as if everyone knew that the Ninth Prince and the Ninth Princess were just playing around.
Only Siwei doesn’t know.
Seeing that Bai Junzhuo was absent-minded, Yin Xun stepped forward and gently hugged her, “You don’t have to be sad. It’s not your fault.”
Bai Junzhuo did not seem to hear his words. He only lowered his head and stared at the gray-black thing in his hand. It was soft and looked like some kind of fungus.
Yin Xun also noticed the item in her hand. He reached out to take it, pressed it, and asked, “Is it a mushroom?”
Bai Junzhuo shook his head and took the item back. As for the smell under his nose, he replied, “It should be the Earth Crow Peach. It’s a medicinal ingredient. It’s good for relieving edema and diuresis.”
“Huh?” Yin Xun was puzzled, “Do you need this?”
Bai Junzhuo raised his head and said, “This was given to me by Siwei just before he died. I can’t figure out what she was trying to tell me by giving me this.”
“If you can’t figure it out, then don’t be tired.” Yin Xun casually threw the ground crow peach aside and said to her with a heartache, “Look at you, you’re so thin.”
Bai Junzhuo pinched the flesh on his face and smiled, “Now that everything has settled down, I will definitely work hard to get fat.”
Yin Xun didn’t believe it at all. He thought to himself, Should he ask his royal brother for another imperial edict?
*
As expected, after a few days of living in peace, Ju An was also shocked by Siwei’s actions. He listlessly immersed himself in Siwei’s death for a few days, but he still did not recover to his original lively state.
While Xing Zi was combing Bai Junzhuo’s hair, Ju An, who was standing beside him, was stunned. He whispered to Bai Junzhuo, “Young miss, Ju An must have thought of death again. Look at how haggard she has become in just a few days.”
Bai Junzhuo looked at Ju An from the mirror. Seeing that her eyes were dark and her skin was faintly green, he turned around and called out to her, “Ju An, come over.”
Ju An was suddenly stunned for a moment, then hurriedly ran to Bai Junzhuo and said, “What instructions does the princess have?”
Bai Junzhuo asked indifferently, “No matter what, thinking of danger is also because of me. Do you hate me?”
Ju An hurriedly shook his head and said, “This servant did not do anything. She was the one who thought about danger, so she could not blame anyone.”
Bai Junzhuo suddenly said sternly, “Then why do you act like a dead man in front of me every day, and you don’t care about serving me, as if I owe you?”
‘”Miss, Ju An and Thinking of Danger have accompanied each other for more than ten years, and they have deep feelings for each other. It is only natural for Ju An to feel sad after her death. Miss, aren’t you going too far …” Xing Zi was also shocked by these words and whispered hurriedly, “Miss, Ju An and Thinking of Danger have been accompanying each other for more than ten years.”
Bai Junzhuo looked at her and Xingzi immediately shut his mouth.
Ju An hurriedly knelt down and said, “Princess, this servant knows her mistake. This servant’s face is haggard not because she is still immersed in Siwei’s death, but because this servant has not slept well recently.”
Bai Junzhuo asked Xingzi, “Is that so?”
Xingzi nodded his head and replied, “That’s right. Ju An has been waking up several times every night recently, and he always says that his body hurts.”
“Since that’s the case, why didn’t you tell me?” Bai Junzhuo asked with a frown.
Ju An replied, “This servant feels that the princess is pregnant and is not fit to work too hard, so I did not tell the princess such a trivial matter. However, this servant has already seen a doctor. The doctor prescribed medicine for this servant, and this servant is much better after eating it. I estimate that she will recover soon.”
“Is that really the case?” Bai Junzhuo still had some doubts and said to her, “Give me your hand.”
Ju An stretched out his hand and Bai Junzhuo checked his pulse. It was really fine, so he withdrew his hand. He then instructed Xingzi, “Go to the pharmacy and bring Jurong San to Ju An.”
Xing Zi accepted the order. Not long after, he brought a box of things over and said to Ju An, “This Yurong Powder is made of pearl powder, white cloves, pigeon strips white, and eagle strips white. I guarantee that you will be glowing a few days after using it, just like the lovable Ju An from before!”
Ju An took the Yurong Powder, thanked Bai Junzhuo, and then silently stood aside. He looked as if he was in a state of disappointment and despondency.
Bai Junzhuo couldn’t bear it anymore and sighed, “Ju An, go back and rest. Wait until you return to normal before coming to serve me.”
Ju An expressionlessly said “Oh” and slowly walked out.
Xingzi frowned and looked at Bai Junzhuo’s face. “Miss, is Ju An angry that you used her?”
“Ju An doesn’t look like such a petty person.” Bai Junzhuo thought of her lifeless appearance just now and suddenly asked Xingzi, “Xingzi, when you were in Luoyang, you also saw the appearance of people who had consumed the Cold Food Powder. Do you think it resembles Ju An’s current situation?”
Xing Zi thought about it carefully and replied, “It looks a little like it. They are all half-dead and haggard. However, it doesn’t look like it. Those who have taken the Cold Food Powder are frantic and anxious. They are happy all day long, while Ju An is passive and lazy, and his reaction is slow, as if he has lost his soul.”
Bai Junzhuo listened to Xingzi’s words and said thoughtfully, “He also looks like an addict.”
“What?” Xing Zi did not hear what she said clearly, but he was not curious. He murmured, “Her relationship with Siwei is really good. Siwei is dead, and the blow to her is too great. It is estimated that she will recover after surviving this period of time.”
Bai Junzhuo nodded, “I hope so.”
As they were talking, someone suddenly came in and sent a message, “Lord White, the Empress Dowager has summoned you into the palace.”
“Now?” Bai Junzhuo asked doubtfully. It was still early morning. Ever since the Empress Dowager found out that she was pregnant, she was allowed to stay away from the morning court every day. She had never entered the palace at this time. He then asked the messenger, “Does father-in-law know why the Empress Dowager wants me to enter the palace at this time?”
The father-in-law shook his head and said, “This servant only knows that a messenger from the Fulin Kingdom has arrived. It seems that the messenger wants to see Lord Bai.”
What did the messenger want to see her for? I hope it’s not a bad thing.
Bai Junzhuo was filled with suspicion. After he was ready, he entered the palace with this father-in-law.
When they reached the court, they saw an envoy with a European face dressed in the royal royal robes, his hands crossed over his chest, and his head raised high. He wondered if he was looking at the emperor.
Bai Junzhuo bent his knees and bowed. Yin Mu immediately raised his hand and said, “Ai Qing, please don’t bow. I announced you to the palace today for …”
Before he could finish his sentence, the messenger of the Fulin Kingdom glanced at Bai Junzhuo and said, “Your Dali Kingdom’s number one divine doctor is actually just a pregnant woman?”
Yin Mu was slightly unhappy, and Bai Junzhuo was also unhappy. Even if the Emperor of Li Country was controlled by the Empress Dowager, he could at least be considered the head of Li Country. To actually interrupt Yin Mu, it was too rude.
The Empress Dowager behind the curtain was also very angry and said coldly, “Impudent!”
The curtain of pearls could not completely conceal the Empress Dowager’s appearance. Everyone in the hall could see the Empress Dowager sitting upright as usual, her expression cold and solemn. Only the curtain beads trembled slightly, showing even more dignity and dignity.
The messenger of the Fulin Kingdom seemed to have been intimidated by the Empress Dowager’s aura. She coughed awkwardly and muttered something that no one present understood.
The translator beside Yin Mu quietly translated his words, causing Yin Mu’s face to darken.
Bai Junzhuo was still confused. He did not know what this envoy had said that made the Emperor angry, nor did he know why the Empress Dowager had asked her to come over. However, the Empress Dowager also had a translator by her side, so she should have translated the emissary’s words to the Empress Dowager. Then why wasn’t the Empress Dowager angry?
Yin Mu was not a simple person. However, his expression returned to normal in a moment. He continued to say to Bai Junzhuo, “The reason why I called Bai Aiqing here today is because the envoy of the Kingdom of Fulin is very curious about my Dali medical skills. He wants to open his eyes. Bai Aiqing, you must behave well and never hide your selfishness.”
Bai Junzhuo now understood that this person was here to provoke him.
After reading a little bit of Chinese history, we all know that those big ancient countries liked to show off, so they liked to show off what they knew, saying that it sounded better was cultural exchange, and saying that it was more direct was pretending to be everywhere.
However, although Bai Junzhuo had a lot of medicinal ingredients in his head, he couldn’t think of anything representative. He asked the envoy who was two heads taller, “I, Dali, have great medical skills and many medicinal ingredients. I wonder what the envoy wants to know?”
The messenger smiled faintly and summoned the person who was with him. He took out a short knife and sliced it into the person’s hand. The person frowned in pain.
Bai Junzhuo immediately understood that he was trying to show off their hemostatic. This was simple. Coincidentally, he had a bottle of hemostatic on him. Moreover, it was the kind that had an immediate effect. It definitely wouldn’t be inferior to theirs.
The messenger asked the man, “Your blood is flowing out. Does it hurt?”
The man nodded.
The messenger then took out a bottle of medicine and gave it to the man. A moment later, he asked, “Does it still hurt?”
The man smiled and shook his head.
Everyone present was secretly amazed. Of course, there were painkillers in Li Country as well, but it was the first time they had seen such a good effect so quickly.
Bai Junzhuo only stared at the wound that was still bleeding. It was just that there was no use in stopping the pain! If you don’t stop the bleeding, this person will collapse!
The messenger proudly said to Yin Mu, “Emperor Li, did you see this? The medicine we developed can immediately make people forget the pain. Just imagine, if soldiers were to carry this medicine with them on the battlefield and immediately use it after being injured, wouldn’t it be invincible and unmatched?”
Everyone in the court sighed endlessly. Bai Junzhuo stared straight at the man’s bloody hand. His face was already pale without any color, but there was no expression of pain at all. Could it be that even a little pain could not be detected?
The messenger looked at Bai Junzhuo and asked, “Miraculous physician of Li Kingdom, may I ask if your country has such a miraculous painkiller?”
