A four-year-old medical prodigy descended to the mortal realm, and the entire capital sought her tre

When the emperor saw the Grand Preceptor's appearance, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he sneered inwardly.

This is the true nature of the Imperial Advisor, isn't it?

I have always trusted him and relied on him, but who knew that he was actually relying on Consort Yu?

This woman looks so delicate that she wouldn't dare to step on an ant.

How ridiculous! Utterly ridiculous!

"It seems the Imperial Advisor is also helpless against the Fourth Prince?"

The emperor's tone was calm, revealing little emotion, and his face remained impassive.

The Imperial Advisor pushed aside the eunuch in front of him, coughed twice, and straightened his clothes, which were slightly disheveled from the large movements.

He first paid his respects to the emperor, and then said solemnly, "Your Majesty, I was rude just now, please forgive me."

The emperor thought to himself, "How long can this imperial advisor keep up this act?"

"In that case, please, Imperial Advisor, examine the Fourth Prince and see what is wrong with him?"

"Yes, yes..." The Imperial Advisor, covered in goosebumps, walked back to the Fourth Prince.

The fourth prince's eyes were full of tears, and he kept making gurgling sounds as he sobbed softly.

The Emperor, Consort Yu, and the Imperial Advisor's reactions filled him with despair; it seemed that no one could help him anymore.

The reaction of the imperial advisor, who had always been so close to him, just now made him feel like a stranger.

"Fourth Prince, what's wrong? Can you say something?" the Imperial Advisor asked, leaning forward.

"Coo coo, coo coo, coo coo..." The fourth prince said a string of words, all of which came out as cooing sounds.

The Imperial Advisor's heart pounded, and it took him a great deal of effort to suppress his fear.

He turned to look at Consort Yu, wanting to ask her what exactly happened.

However, as soon as Consort Yu met the Imperial Preceptor's gaze, she immediately covered her face and wept, taking the opportunity to shake her head and indicate to the Imperial Preceptor that she did not know either.

The Emperor watched the Imperial Preceptor and Consort Yu's actions unfold, waiting to see what other drama the two siblings would put on.

Consort Yu's reaction disheartened the Imperial Advisor, leaving him terrified and at a loss.

Throughout history, the problems the Imperial Advisor encountered in court were always resolved by Consort Yu, who provided solutions behind the scenes.

Only then could he play the role of an omnipotent imperial advisor in front of everyone.

But now, even Consort Yu can't solve this problem, so what can he do? What should he do?

Consort Yu could hide, claim she didn't know, or say she was incompetent, and no one would doubt her in the slightest.

The Imperial Advisor is different; he always puts on an act in front of others. But how should he act in the next scene?

The Imperial Advisor looked around the palace, trying to see if there was any other lifeline he could grasp at.

He saw Zhou Ruo standing in front of the table, staring at the watermelon and licking her lips, seemingly unconcerned about what was happening inside the hall.

Turning his head again, he saw Zhao Jinzhong, and the Crown Prince standing next to Zhao Jinzhong, his face deathly pale.

The Crown Prince? What's the Crown Prince doing here?

According to Consort Yu, the Crown Prince should be bedridden at this moment.

However... when the Imperial Advisor walked up to the Crown Prince, he finally saw the Crown Prince's "makeup".

"Ouch!" The Imperial Advisor was startled by the Crown Prince's appearance and jumped back a small step, his movements somewhat exaggerated.

The imperial advisor was terrified and guilty, and was now even more at a loss.

He noticed that the emperor was staring at him with a sinister gaze, which calmed him down a little.

"Your Highness...are you feeling unwell?"

The prince laughed, his lips stretching across his pale face and dark eyes, making him look even more bizarre.

"The Imperial Advisor is truly remarkable; he could tell at a glance that I was unwell."

The Imperial Advisor was repeatedly tormented by the Crown Prince's appearance, his words, and his own already utterly empty heart, and suddenly began to break down.

He took a few steps back with a cold laugh for no reason, only to be suddenly blocked by something.

The one who blocked the Imperial Preceptor's retreat was none other than the Fourth Prince.

The fourth prince waited for the imperial advisor's reply for quite a while, but the imperial advisor kept changing the subject.

There was no reply to the emperor regarding the cause of his illness or whether there was any cure.

The fourth prince couldn't wait any longer. He came up behind the Grand Preceptor, awkwardly climbed onto the Grand Preceptor's leg, and tried to stand up.

The Imperial Advisor froze, glanced back, and for a moment all was silent.

The next second, a scream that echoed throughout Wan Ning Palace and nearly blew the roof off the sleeping quarters burst from the Grand Preceptor's mouth.

The Imperial Advisor saw that the Fourth Prince was clinging tightly to his trouser leg with both hands, his tongue constantly moving in and out.

With its low, gurgling sounds, it looks just like a giant toad monster.

"Ahhh—" The Imperial Advisor could no longer hold back; he could no longer continue acting.

He was devastated and tried to run away, but the fourth prince held him tightly. Suddenly, the Grand Preceptor fell to the ground.

He struggled violently, rolled over, sat on the ground with his buttocks, and braced himself with his hands behind him.

Seeing the fourth prince about to pounce on him, he desperately moved backward.

After moving a distance, I noticed a puddle of water on the ground.

The imperial advisor kept shouting, "Help! Help me!"

At that moment, Zhou Ruo's voice suddenly came from inside the bedchamber.

She pointed at the Imperial Advisor and said to Zhao Jinzhong, "Brother, he wet his pants!"

The sound wasn't loud, but everyone could hear it.

The emperor looked down at the imperial advisor, and sure enough, he had urinated.

The Imperial Advisor's exaggerated reaction made Consort Yu feel desperate; she had never imagined that the Imperial Advisor would be so incompetent.

In the past, he also doted on the fourth prince, and sometimes they even seemed to be like father and son.

But now the Imperial Preceptor's reaction to the Fourth Prince is the most absurd thing in the entire palace.

"Guards! Drag the Imperial Advisor away!"

The emperor finally lost his patience, and there was no need to watch the show any longer.

The Grand Preceptor's reaction has already revealed his incompetence; he was incapable to begin with.

He managed to dominate the court for ten years with just one woman in his harem, and the emperor favored him for the same length of time.

"Ji'an!" The Emperor could wait no longer. The behavior of Consort Yu and the Imperial Advisor was enough to show that there was something wrong with them.

That's enough of this show.

"Can you cure the Fourth Prince's illness?" the Emperor asked Zhou Ruo for help.

Zhou Ruo glanced at Zhao Jinzhong, who nodded to her.

With Zhao Jinzhong's permission, Zhou Ruo took small steps and walked up to the Fourth Prince and the Emperor.

She first sensed the Fourth Prince's condition nearby and, after confirming that there was no problem, she replied to the Emperor: "I can save him."

The emperor's worried expression eased slightly, and his voice softened considerably.

"Very well, I command you to cure the Fourth Prince of his strange illness."

"Okay!" Zhou Ruoxin readily agreed and was about to begin using her spiritual power.

Consort Yu found it hard to believe that this child dared to tell the Emperor that she could save the Fourth Prince.

She set up the soul-absorbing formation, a formation that no one could break. How could a child possibly break it?

Princess Ji'an only knows acupuncture and has some medical knowledge.

The mysterious array is invincible; there's no way she, a child, could handle it.

"Stop!" Consort Yu rushed to the Fourth Prince's side, shielding him behind her and blocking Zhou Ruo. "What are you going to do to my son?"

Zhou Ruo withdrew her small hand that was raised in the air, looked quietly at the vicious woman in front of her, and said, "I want to save him!"

Consort Yu sneered, "Even I couldn't save him, how could you, a mere child, possibly save him?"

"It's not difficult at all; just remove the toad's spirit from his body!"

Consort Yu was shocked. "You? You... what did you say?"

This little girl in front of me actually said that the Fourth Prince has a soul, and it's the soul of a toad.

How could she possibly know that the Fourth Prince had another soul inside him?

What terrified Consort Yu even more was that the extra soul in the Fourth Prince's body was clearly that of the Crown Prince, so how could it be that of a toad?

Just then, a eunuch's announcement rang out from outside the door: "Her Majesty the Empress has arrived!"
