Yusui Chang'an

After getting on the carriage, Doctor Wu lost his sage appearance and looked at An Zhixian with a complaining look:
"You're both harming and saving people. How long are you going to play this game?"

An Zhixian: "I didn't recruit you for this job. You took it on yourself. If you calculate the time, it will take at least three days."

Doctor Wu muttered in frustration:

"I've told you two more lies in the past few years than I have in my entire life."

An Zhixian laughed: "You are a man who loves talents very much. You were very happy when you prepared the medicine. Why are you complaining now?"

Doctor Wu turned his head away, feeling guilty.
"Young man...it won't matter if you sleep a few more days."

Jin Palace.

The three imperial physicians all had assignments in the palace and could not stay in Prince Jin's Mansion all the time. After Doctor Wu left, Zhong Yi kept Imperial Physician Chen alone and sent the other two imperial physicians away.

Song Yi chased forward and hinted that the butler had given the two imperial doctors a large sum of money, but the imperial doctors refused to accept it because they failed to diagnose the cause of the disease.

However, the housekeeper said: "He has made this trip and wasted half a day. He must be thanked. Otherwise, Prince Jin will definitely blame him for his negligence when he wakes up." Only then did the imperial doctors accept the money.

When Imperial Physician Chen heard the cause of the disease diagnosed by Doctor Wu, the fog in his mind suddenly cleared up, but he fell into confusion again:

"It turned out to be Wu Meng and Mo Lingxiang. No wonder the diagnosis was not made... But these two herbs are not produced in Tianchu. They are rarely available due to their small quantity, so very few doctors know how to use them. How could His Highness mistakenly take them at the same time? Was there an ambush?"

Zhong Yi remained silent. Although he had not found any concrete evidence, he already had a suspicion in his mind. Hearing a commotion outside the courtyard gate, he called the guards to inquire and learned that it was the doctor and his daughter from the Zhang family. They discovered that their courtyard had been searched, so they came to Zhong Yi for an explanation. However, Zhong Yi ordered them not to enter the main courtyard. He was reasoning with the guards at the courtyard gate.

Zhong Yi was already irritable, and when he heard the noise, he immediately ordered the two to be driven back to their respective courtyards and locked up, and not to step out of the courtyard gate until Chu Chengyao woke up. After his ears were quiet, he stayed by his side and waited for Chu Chengyao to wake up, but after waiting for a long time, seeing that the time Doctor Wu said had passed, Chu Chengyao still showed no signs of waking up, Zhong Yi hurriedly called Song Yi, and then went to ask Doctor Wu to come to the house.

When the news of Chu Chengyao's coma reached the palace, the Queen and Concubine Xian's first reaction was that Chu Chengyao was cheating, so they sent spies to gather information everywhere. The two imperial doctors who had been to Prince Jin's Mansion were called away by the Queen and Concubine Xian as soon as they entered the palace.

After confirming that the coma was real, the Queen immediately sent the news to the Crown Prince and the Duke's Mansion.

Rubbing her swollen forehead, the Queen subconsciously called out:
"As you wish..."

There was no response. The queen suddenly opened her eyes and was lost in thought. Seeing this, Xier stepped forward cautiously:

"Your Majesty, do you have a headache again? Can I give you a hand to massage it?"

Seeing that the queen didn't say anything, Xier bravely stepped forward and gently pressed the queen's forehead.

After a long while, the Queen sighed: "Shun Yi is only this old, what a pity..."

Xier said in a gentle tone: "The dead cannot be resurrected. Sister Shunyi loved the queen the most when she was alive. She would not bear to see the queen sad for her. According to the queen's instructions, the place where Sister Shunyi was buried is very good. I think she will have a good life in the next life."

"She deserves it. After all, she has been loyal to me..."

"Your Majesty is truly kindhearted. I am just surprised that although Sister Shunyi was beaten with a stick, she had the medicine Your Majesty sent her. Even though the living conditions in the Ye Ting Prison were terrible, the medicine Your Majesty gave her would not be completely ineffective and she would die in just a few days."
