The Full-Leveled Healer Transmigrates to a Real and Fake Rich Daughter Story - Chapter 99

99 Crisis

He silently retreated and gave the other guards a look, letting Chu Yi and Gu Yanfei into the private seats.

It was naturally impossible for Imperial Duke Wei and Murong Yong not to notice the two living people entering the private room so openly.

Murong Yong was not qualified to attend court and had never seen the Eldest Prince. However, Imperial Duke Wei naturally knew him.

Imperial Duke Wei’s blood-stained lips parted slightly. He wanted to say that it was not convenient for him to bow now, but he was too weak. It was not easy for him to hold his breath when he heard Chu Yi say with concern, “Uncle, don’t move.”

!!
“I came here with a friend to watch a show. I heard the commotion here and came to take a look…”

“My friend is proficient in medicine. Let her take a look at ‘Uncle’.”

“Uncle” was a general term. When Murong Yong heard this unfamiliar young man in white call him that, he only thought that the other party was a relative of the Wei family or a junior of a family close to Imperial Duke Wei.

Imperial Duke Wei weakly turned to look at Gu Yanfei. Seeing that this thin, fair, and refined young man was at most 14 or 15 years old, eight words immediately appeared in his mind: Young people could not be trusted with important tasks.

Gu Yanfei stood beside Chu Yi and examined Imperial Duke Wei at close range. She said bluntly, “You were injured when you were young, right?”

Her words were not a question, but an assertion.

There was a crispness in the girl’s clear voice that stunned everyone inside and outside the private room.

Imperial Duke Wei was stunned as he sized up Gu Yanfei again. Seeing that she had no Adam’s apple, a gentle face, and a thin figure, he roughly knew that this “friend” of the Eldest Prince was actually a girl.

It did not matter if it was a man or a woman. In the Great Jin Dynasty, who did not know that he, Wei Seng, had been on the battlefield for decades? There was no general who had not been injured!

Imperial Duke Wei pursed his lips disapprovingly and coughed twice with a pale face, his body trembling like a sieve.

Gu Yanfei did not seem to see his disdainful expression. She walked towards him with her hands behind her back and continued unhurriedly, “It should be an arrow wound. The arrow entered your lower abdomen and pierced your pelvis, almost killing you.”

There was neither fear nor pity in Gu Yanfei’s expression, and it was as if she was facing an ordinary person.

Imperial Duke Wei’s status and position were unattainable to others, but to her, he was just one of the common people.

“…” Imperial Duke Wei’s turbid pupils constricted slightly with each word, and his eyes widened.

Even Murong Yong could tell that this girl was definitely right.

Imperial Duke Wei wanted to say something else, but just as the words reached his lips, he felt another wave of intense pain in his body that was like a tsunami. His throat felt salty and fishy, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

He shut his mouth quickly and could only nod stiffly.

This simple action seemed to have taken half his life again. His breathing stopped for a moment and became weaker.

Gu Yanfei continued, “You’re having a relapse.”

Hearing this, Murong Yong secretly heaved a sigh of relief. If Imperial Duke Wei’s old injuries had relapsed, it would have nothing to do with him.

Imperial Duke Wei looked at Gu Yanfei in bewilderment.

He had suffered more than 20 years ago from his old injury, which had left an arrow scar on his abdomen. Over the years, his stomach had become a little bigger as he got older, but he did not feel any serious discomfort.

Gu Yanfei flicked her sleeve. Everyone only saw her wide sleeve brush past Imperial Duke Wei’s wrist. Two fingers seemed to press against his pulse, but they didn’t touch him at all.

With a flash of her black sleeve, she leisurely retracted her hand. Smiling faintly, she threw a few more questions at Imperial Duke Wei.

“Do you often have nausea, bloating, and abdominal pain after meals?”

“Was the abdominal pain dull at first before it became more intense?”

“Any occasional bloody stool?”

After a few questions, Imperial Duke Wei’s face turned pale with shock and embarrassment.

This girl was right. In the past, he had only thought that it was because he was old and had a weak stomach that he was like this. The imperial physicians and famous doctors in the capital had said the same thing. How could he expect this to have something to do with his old injuries from so many years ago?

Gu Yanfei stunned Imperial Duke Wei with just a few words.

At this moment, when he looked at Gu Yanfei again, his gaze changed drastically.

From contempt to shock, to in between, to surprise, and then to trust.

This girl’s family had such ability at such a young age and was definitely not an ordinary person. Could she be a divine doctor specially found by the Eldest Prince to treat the Emperor?! Imperial Duke Wei guessed inwardly.

Thinking of this, Imperial Duke Wei’s breathing quickened slightly. He endured the pain and discomfort and looked at Chu Yi with difficulty, his eyes deep.

The Emperor was weak and had not stopped drinking medicine all these years. Ever since he ascended the throne at the beginning of the year, he had been busy with government affairs. Yangxin Hall and East Warm Pavilion had also called for imperial physicians from time to time, but the imperial physicians in the palace only knew how to prescribe peace.

“Can he be treated?” Chu Yi’s gentle and elegant voice came slowly.

Gu Yanfei did not answer directly. She said calmly, “I have to read his fortune first.”

“…” Xiao Shi inexplicably heard the meaning of this simple conversation.

He was clearly in cahoots with Young Master and Miss Gu, but Xiao Shi often felt that he had been ostracized.

Hearing this, Imperial Duke Wei, Murong Yong, and the others could not help but be stunned. They came to a realization and thought to themselves, ‘Could she be a Taoist priest?’

Because Emperor Taizu valued Celestial Rectifier Spiritual Master and conferred Taoism as the state religion, the Taoist priests of the Great Jin Dynasty had a high status and Taoist doctors were prevalent. This Taoist priest was different from the Taoist priests who cultivated as monks in the Taoist templ, and could still get married.

Gu Yanfei took out the compass she had personally made from her sleeve and placed it in her palm. She gently flicked the magnetic needle at the sun outside the window.

The magnetic needle spun and stopped a moment later.

She said softly, “The imperial duke’s fortune is five or six lines on the trigram and a Li hexagram. He will shed tears and snot like heavy rain.

Xiao Shi pretended to listen attentively, but he did not understand what Gu Yanfei had said at all.

Imperial Duke Wei’s attendant was burning with anxiety. He hurriedly asked Gu Yanfei, “Young Master, can he be saved?”
