Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife

Chapter 513



~ THE DEAD WAS ALREADY GONE, BUT THE LIVING WOULD NOT BE AT EASE ~

On the second day, more and more commoners gathered at the free clinic to watch. At noon, just as the Imperial Physicians were thinking about going to eat lunch, a woman holding a child rushed out suddenly. A few people behind her wanted to hold her back, but she bit them on the arm. “Go away!My child will die anyway, so I am not afraid of being harmed. If you dare to stop me again, don’t blame me for going all out against you!”

“Hey… you fail to recognize the kindness! If you let them see your child, you will only make your son die faster!”

“I don’t need your kind reminder! A bunch of cowards!” The woman quickly held the child in her arms and placed it in front of an Imperial Physician. “Doctor, please help look at my child.”

The Imperial Physician hurriedly stepped forward. When he saw the child’s mouth was stained with vomit, some of it had already reached his nose and would be sucked back easily if things went awry. He quickly turned the child’s head to the side, took his handkerchief, and carefully cleaned it up.

At this moment, the child’s entire body suddenly began to twitch. The Imperial Physician who was helping to wipe away the filth didn’t have time to think about it. He held the child down while pinching the child’s chin to prevent him from biting his tongue during convulsions and shock.

It was unknown where the child got his strength, but he succeeds bit the Imperial Physician’s hand, causing the others to rush forward to help.

Mu Yunyao hurried over and pulled out a silver needle to secure the child’s body. She then took the wooden stick and stuffed it into the child’s mouth, “Doctor Qin, are you alright?”

“It’s nothing. It’s nothing. It’s just a minor injury.” Imperial Physician Qin’s hands were stained with filth, so he had his colleagues at the side take the pills Mu Yunyao gave him and put them in his mouth, “Princess, it looks like my injuries will require a few more pills to heal. I don’t know if you have any extra....”

Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but laugh, “I saw that Imperial Physician Qin had done quite a bit of research on the detoxification prescriptions. After we return to the Capital, I’ll write down the prescription and ask Imperial Physician Qin to come to the Grand Princess’ estate to discuss whether the prescription can be improved. How about it?”

Imperial Physician Qin opened his eyes wide in pleasant surprise: “Alright, then I’ll definitely pay a visit to the Grand Princess’s estate to seek guidance from Princess.”

Mu Yunyao checked the child’s pulse: “I’m sure he’s infected with the plague, but his symptoms are already quite severe. His pulse is stagnant, his entire body is boiling hot, and he’s constantly vomiting. Add a Magnolia officinalis to the original prescription. The decoction was boiled thickly and give it to him. Your child had better stay in our temporary tent so the Imperial Physicians can diagnose and treat him anytime. What do you think, Madam?”

The woman quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Mu Yunyao and Imperial Physician Qin. “Many thanks, Princess. Many thanks to the Imperial Physician. I am willing to stay.”

“Alright, you should come forward too. I’ll help you to check your pulse. If you fall ill, you can’t take care of your child.”

“Yes.”

After the mother and son pair left, the onlookers became even more bewildered. Some people witnessed that the child’s expression eased a lot after drinking the decoction and finally couldn’t help but step forward to the free clinic, “Please take a look at me, Doctor? I’ve been feeling very uncomfortable for the past few days.”

The Imperial Physicians came forward to diagnose and treat the patient. They discussed with each other when they encountered an unsure pulse condition. After working in the Imperial Hospital for so many years, their medical skills had not improved as quickly as they had in just a few short days in Jiangnan, leaving behind the power and prosperity of the Capital. After calming down, they had instead found their original intentions when they first entered the medical profession.

After someone took the lead in the free clinic, many sick people couldn’t sit still. Recalling the three-day appointment that Mu Yunyao had mentioned, they hurriedly gathered in front of the free clinic regardless of the obstacles of the remaining people.

With the Imperial Physicians present, Mu Yunyao didn’t help check the pulse in front. Instead, she focused on boiling the medicinal herbs.

Yue Wang led his men to survey the Yi He River. The water has become transparent, and the wall has been strengthened. Occasionally, some swimming fish can be seen on the shore.

Wei Yi and Yun Chun were sent to escort the medicinal herbs to the city. At this time, they stood beside Yue Wang to report respectfully, “Master, the Capital has sent a message saying that the Emperor has chosen Qi Yun, the third uncle of Yu Wang, to supervise the reconstruction of the Linjiang River riverbank and Yihe River riverbank.”

Yue Wang nodded, “En, with the Qi family members here, I can rest assured on the riverbanks reconstruction. I only hope that the rain will come a little later.” It was raining heavily in Jiangnan, but it is beginning to enter summer now. If there is a sudden heavy rain, the damaged embankment definitely could not last.

“In addition, this subordinate has received news regarding the people that Master wants to investigate.”

Yue Wang suddenly turned his head, his eyes suddenly turning cold. “Where is he?”

“The person is in Guancheng City and has already been detained by our people. He is temporarily imprisoned in a small courtyard at the end of Luofeng Street in the west. Do we need to bring him to see you, Master?”

Yue Wang’s expression was solemn. A clear trace of anxiety and agitation flashed across his usually calm face. “No need. I’ll go see him in person.”

“Yes.”

As more and more commoners gathered, Mu Yunyao and the Imperial Physicians were busy until late at night before returning to their residences.

Si Qin and Si Qi prepared hot water and brought it in.

“You guys can go and rest. Today, you are also busy today. I will freshen up by myself.”

“Yes, Miss.”

Mu Yunyao had finished her shower and dried half her hair. She stood by the window and looked at the peonies fiercely blooming in the courtyard. “Unknowingly, another year of peonies has bloomed.” After she had finished her words, she looked toward Yue Wang’s room next door. She had not seen him since the afternoon.

Is there something he hasn’t done yet?

At this time, an old man kneeling on the ground in the small courtyard at the end of Luofeng Street, an extremely complicated emotion flashed across his eyes as he looked up at Yue Wang: “Your Royal Highness Yue Wang....”

Yue Wang turned around, his ice-cold face full of coldness: “Lord Luo.”

“Lord Luo? There is no Luo family in this world anymore, and there is no Lord Luo. I wonder what orders do you have for Your Royal Highness Yue Wang to come to find me, a dying person, personally?”“Back then, the Luo Family was the head of the aristocratic families, and even the newly ascended Imperial Father had to show respect to the master of the Luo Family. I’m just an unfavoured prince. How could I dare to give you any orders?”

“Is Your Royal Highness come today to humiliate me?” The old man on the ground gave a self-deprecating smile. Even though his hair was messy and his face looked old, it was still hard to hide the indifference aura from an aristocratic family.

“I came to you today because I wanted to inquire about the truth behind what happened in the Imperial Palace back then. Everyone said Imperial Mother, the Empress, died in seclusion in the Cold Palace because she poisoned the ten princes, the sons of Imperial Father. I didn’t believe it, so I came to ask you about the truth back then.”

The old man’s hand at his side suddenly trembled, and his turbid eyes flashed with an intensely heavy sadness. “Your Highness, the dead are already gono, so is there a need to pursue the matter? The Empress has passed away, and the six aristocratic families have been annihilated. I’m the only one left breathing heavily. If Your Royal Highness doesn’t like it, I will kill myself when and no longer interfering with Your Royal Highness’ life.”

“The dead were already gone, but the living would not be at ease. There were many doubts about the things back then. Why wait so many years for the dignified Empress to kill the Crown Prince before taking action? Or why she called the princes to her Palace and poisoned them, yet at that time, Imperial Mother was pregnant with me. Thus, this matter didn’t make sense from the beginning to the end! Imperial Father didn’t allow me to investigate the truth of that year, and Imperial Aunt also didn’t say a word about the past. Therefore, I can only find you, the only survivor from the six aristocratic families, also a witness everything that happened in the past.”
