Koi Fleeing Famine: I Picked Up a Chief Assistant as a Husband

Chapter 197 Begging the Emperor to spare me punishment

How could the emperor not know his perfunctory words, immediately grabbed the imperial doctor by the collar, and said fiercely: "If you can't heal the fifth prince, I will let you all be buried in the imperial hospital!"

"Yes, it is the old minister who will do his best to heal His Highness the Fifth Highness."

The imperial physician left tremblingly, anxiously waiting at the door for other imperial physicians to arrive.

Finally, under his repeated expectations, other imperial physicians came one after another, followed him into the room, and after taking the pulse, several imperial physicians all looked solemn.

"Well, His Highness's condition is really serious. His pulse seems to be absent, and it is impossible to diagnose his illness, but it is very likely that it is caused by excessive internal energy consumption." One of the imperial physicians said.

Apart from the wound on his neck, His Highness the Fifth Prince had no other scars on his body, which indicated that he was probably injured internally.
It's just that for some reason, most of the blood in his body seems to have been lost, making him so weak.

And they could also see that His Highness Fifth Prince's complexion was extremely pale, as if his vitality was slowly fading away.

The other two imperial physicians looked at each other, nodded in agreement with his words, and began to discuss.

"I've never seen this kind of symptom. It must be something like the eight meridians recorded in ancient books. But what should we do now? We can't sit still and wait for death, right?"

Hearing his words, everyone fell into silence.

"Excessive consumption of internal strength?" the emperor asked doubtfully.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I feel that His Royal Highness Fifth Highness must have been severely injured, which caused both Qi and blood loss and unstable internal breath." Another younger imperial physician also echoed.

Hearing this, the emperor pondered for a moment, and then ordered the guards next to him: "Propagate my will, use all my strength to find out the identity of the man in black as soon as possible, and I want to see who is so bold as to rob and kill the prince in the city."

"Follow the order." The guard led the order and left.

The emperor turned his head to look at Jun Moyu who was on the bed, and walked out, followed by several imperial physicians, "Can you cure His Highness Fifth?"

"I will do my best." The imperial physicians said in unison.

"Do your best?" The emperor seemed dissatisfied with their words, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.

Several imperial physicians exchanged glances with each other, and finally the young imperial physician who just reminded him stood up: "My Majesty, the ministers are incompetent, and I can't promise to treat His Highness the Fifth Highness well."

"What an incompetent! One sentence of incompetence is trying to shirk responsibility, what use is there for you!" The emperor was suddenly furious and sternly shouted.

"The emperor calm down..." All the imperial physicians fell to their knees in panic, begging for mercy repeatedly.

"Your Majesty, please calm down!" Shen Lanze, who had been quietly watching the development of the situation, stepped forward to persuade him: "If the Emperor punishes several imperial physicians, it may attract criticism, and it will not be conducive to His Highness Fifth's recovery."

After Shen Lanze finished speaking, he winked at the imperial physicians again, and the imperial physicians came to understand and lowered their heads without saying a word.

Shen Lanze's words really worked. Although the emperor was still very angry, he finally held back and did not punish the imperial physician.

The emperor took a deep breath and calmed himself down, "Get out of here, and let me know that your treatment is not good, and I will definitely kill you!"

"Your Majesty, the girl has a proposal, I don't know if I should say it or not." Lu Nanzhi came over and said respectfully.

The emperor's eyes fell on her, and the expression in his eyes was unclear.

"Nanzhi, don't mess around, you won't be allowed to be presumptuous in front of the emperor!" Shen Lanze grabbed his wrist, shook his head, and signaled her not to act recklessly.

The Shen family used to be too popular and suffered disaster. He really didn't want to involve other people, let alone Nan Zhi being involved in the royal family battle.

"Don't worry, I know." Lu Nanzhi smiled at him, and then turned to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the daughter of the people is willing to offer a plan to help His Highness Fifth get back to health."

The emperor stared at her for a while, then suddenly asked: "What method?"

"Minnv would like to recommend a doctor to treat His Highness Fifth."

"Oh, which doctor?"

"Minnv's friend, Ye Jinran." Lu Nanzhi replied.

"Ye Jinran? Why is this name so familiar?" The emperor frowned slightly and muttered to himself.

"Ye Jinran is Lord Ruo's goddaughter. She is somewhat similar to the dead lady of the Ruo family." Shen Lanze reminded in a low voice.

"Since that's the case, let her come and show the fifth prince. If the cure is not good, I will punish you together." The emperor glanced at her coldly and threatened.

Lu Nanzhi said without fear: "It is said that there are rewards and punishments. If you are a friend of Minnv, and you really healed His Highness Fifth, may the emperor reward Minnv."

"She's a sharp-tongued woman. You are the No. 1 one who dares to ask for a reward from me. Is a reward of a thousand taels enough?" The emperor's eyes were deep.

"Your Majesty, the daughter of the people doesn't want anything outside of her body, she just wants to ask the Emperor to forgive me." Lu Nanzhi immediately knelt down and saluted.

The emperor couldn't help but chuckle when he heard her words, "You girl, how dare you bargain with me?"

"I hope the emperor will make it happen!" Lu Nanzhi bit his lip and pleaded.

"Forget it, as long as you can really cure the fifth prince, I can spare you punishment." The emperor waved his hand.

Lu Nanzhi was overjoyed immediately: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The emperor glanced at her with deep meaning in his eyes, waved his hand and said, "Go down and get ready first."

"Yes, Minnv resigns."

……

Lu Nanzhi left the mansion and went straight to the hospital, and took Ye Jinran, who was still sleeping, into the carriage.

"In the middle of the night, what are you doing in such a hurry? Could it be that someone is dying?" Ye Jinran opened his eyes in a daze, and asked with a yawn.

"Don't ask, anyway, come with me quickly, otherwise things will change." Lu Nanzhi urged.

"What's going on?" Ye Jinran's sleepiness dissipated instantly. Could it be that something happened to Brother Shen again?
Lu Nanzhi told about the fact that the emperor sent someone to find her to treat the fifth prince, and said: "This time the matter is more serious, you must be more careful."

Ye Jinran couldn't help being distressed when he heard the words, "But I'm just an ordinary doctor, how can I treat the fifth prince? Besides, this matter has nothing to do with me!"

Lu Nanzhi glared at her, "Stop talking nonsense, are you willing to help?"

"Didn't I already help you? It's fine if you don't appreciate me, but you still question me fiercely?" Ye Jinran pretended to be wronged.

Lu Nanzhi held her hand and said very sincerely: "My wealth and life are all on your shoulders, whether I need to enter the palace to be a court lady depends entirely on you."

"What happened? Why did you enter the palace to be a palace maid? What's going on?" Ye Jinran was in a mess now, scratching her dazed head

Lu Nanzhi briefly told her about the matter, and when he finished everything, the carriage stopped just in front of the fifth prince's mansion.

Ye Jinran looked at her helplessly: "Don't worry, I won't let you enter the palace as a court lady, but afterwards I want to eat spicy chicken and stir-fried shredded potatoes made by you."

Lu Nanzhi blinked playfully, "No problem."

The two jumped out of the carriage, and at the gate of the Fifth Prince's Mansion, the eunuch who had been waiting there immediately came forward: "Miss Lu, you are here!"

"Well, this is my friend Ye Jinran." Lu Nanzhi said gently.

Eunuch Li urged: "Let's go."
