Chapter 85 No Prescription
"Mother, I've been accompanying Ruoruo to see doctors in the city these past few days." Zhao Jinzhong didn't hide anything, knowing his mother wouldn't object.
"Aren't you tired from running around outside all day?" Ji Ping was worried that her two children were overworked.
"Mommy, my brother and I didn't run away. We have our own stall!" Zhou Ruo smiled, her eyes curving like the moon.
"A...stall?" Ji Ping's heart tightened, and her mind went blank for a moment.
"Yes, I just sit at my stall and wait for people to come and treat me. I won't get tired!"
Ji Ping looked at Zhao Jinzhong, a dignified young general who had never experienced the hardships of life except for fighting on the battlefield.
But now she's on the street, accompanying her sister to treat patients, and Ji Ping feels a pang of sadness.
She looked at Zhou Ruo again. Although her medical skills were extraordinary, how could she accept that she was so young and had started setting up a stall to treat people?
Zhao Jinzhong saw heartache and worry in Ji Ping's eyes, and he comforted his mother:
"Mother, this is good. Many people are coming to see Ruoruo for treatment."
Ji Ping wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said in a nasal voice:
"It's freezing cold, and the wind and sun are biting... Tomorrow, I'll have someone go to the city to rent a shop for you."
"Mother, we'll each take three coins. My brother says I can open a clinic now!"
Zhou Ruo was so engrossed in her own excitement that she completely failed to grasp Ji Ping's feelings.
"Three copper coins? To open a clinic? How long would it take to save enough to open one?"
"Hmm...it shouldn't take too long!" Zhou Ru thought to herself, since she couldn't figure it out anyway.
Her brother said it could be driven, so she believed it could be driven.
Seeing Zhao Jinzhong smiling beside her, Ji Ping felt even more sorry for Zhou Ruo's naivety.
After a moment of silence, Ji Ping remembered what she wanted to ask the children when they returned.
"By the way, the Dowager Princess of Prince An's residence was seriously ill and had been unconscious for a long time, but I heard she woke up this afternoon..."
Before Ji Ping could finish speaking, Zhou Ruo sighed:
"Wow! Even Mother knows that Grandma An has woken up. It seems that Grandma An is truly an amazing person!"
Yes, Zhou Ruo's determination to cure the Empress Dowager has become even stronger.
"Ruo'er, you call the Dowager Consort...Grandmother An?" Ji Ping asked in surprise.
How did this child become royalty after just one trip?
"Oh..." Zhou Ruo glanced at Zhao Jinzhong and said softly, "I just wanted to call her Grandmother An..."
Seeing the children's reactions, Ji Ping realized her guess was right. "So, it was really Ruo'er who cured the Dowager?"
The news that the Empress Dowager had woken up in the afternoon quickly spread throughout the capital.
When Ji Ping heard the news, her first instinct was to wonder if it was related to Zhou Ruo.
Because she heard that the Empress Dowager's condition was strange and serious, and that she was unconscious, seemingly much more serious than Zhao Jinzhong's at the time.
No doctor in the entire capital could cure Zhao Jinzhong until Zhou Ruo appeared.
Therefore, Ji Ping boldly guessed that the Empress Dowager's sudden awakening today was thanks to Zhou Ruo.
She had just heard Zhou Ruo address the Dowager Consort as "Grandmother An," which further confirmed her suspicions.
"Yes, Mother, we just returned from Prince An's residence," Zhao Jinzhong replied.
"No, no," Zhou Ruo felt Zhao Jinzhong's statement wasn't accurate enough. "I didn't cure Grandma An!"
"Grandma An's illness is difficult to cure, I..." I don't know when I will be able to cure her.
Zhou Ruo subconsciously wanted to sense exactly how much spiritual power he needed to see what the source of the disease was.
Does it mean I need to recover to 60% before I can see it again? If that's the case, then Grandma An could get sick twice more!
As Zhou Ruo pondered this, she blurted out, "I might need to treat Grandma An three more times to cure her!"
After two more treatments, his spiritual power will recover to 60%, then he will be able to see the source of the disease and wipe it out in one fell swoop, making it exactly three times.
As Zhou Ruo thought about it, she found herself becoming happy again.
Ji Ping and Zhao Jinzhong watched the child giggling to herself, unable to understand her thought process for a moment.
Consort An was the only imperial concubine in the court, holding a prestigious position. In addition, the Empress Dowager had passed away eight years ago, so even the emperor had to show her respect.
Ji Ping felt that her adopted daughter might be about to make a great contribution.
The news of the Empress Dowager's awakening had already alarmed the Emperor, who ordered the Imperial Hospital to conduct a thorough examination of her to ensure she was alright.
Inside the Prince An's residence, five imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital carefully examined the Imperial Concubine.
Li Chengquan, the head of the academy who gave Zhou Ruoyin the silver needles, was shocked to see the Empress Dowager who was already awake and even able to get out of bed and walk.
"Your Majesty, I dare to ask which divine physician cured you?"
The Dowager Consort originally wanted to say that it was the little miracle doctor from the General's Mansion, but she immediately remembered that the immortal had instructed her to protect Zhou Ruo.
She had never even met Zhou Ruo, who had saved her. If she rashly told the Imperial Hospital that she had been cured by a child, it would be difficult to justify.
"He is indeed a miraculous doctor. I will arrange for you to meet him when the opportunity arises," the Dowager Princess cautiously informed her.
"Could we take a look at that prescription... Oh! Let us admire it?" Doctor Li's curiosity was at its peak.
"Prescription?" The Dowager Consort glanced at Granny Li, and the two of them realized that the divine physician had cured the Dowager Consort without prescribing any medicine.
"Yes, yes, I would like to see what medicine the divine physician gave the Empress Dowager."
"There's no prescription," said Granny Li. "The miracle doctor didn't write one."
"No...prescription?" Imperial Physician Li was utterly incredulous. "How could the Imperial Concubine's illness be left untreated?"
Granny Li thought for a moment, realizing that she didn't even know how the divine physician had treated the Empress Dowager.
She thought of An Chang, "Physician Li, please wait a moment, I will go and fetch the young master."
An Chang and Prince An were waiting outside the door. When they heard Granny Li calling him, he followed her into the house.
Imperial Physician Li asked, "May I ask, Your Highness, how did that miraculous physician treat the Imperial Concubine? How come there wasn't even a prescription?"
"Prescription?" An Chang had never paid attention to this question before.
Upon questioning by Physician Li, he discovered that Zhou Ruo seemed to have never prescribed medicine for anyone.
It wasn't opened when treating the servants at the General's Mansion, it wasn't opened when treating Ling Yu at Jumanlou, and it wasn't opened this time when treating the Dowager Consort.
"There's no prescription," An Chang replied again, but he added, "It's just a matter of using silver needles."
"Silver needles?" The imperial physicians looked at each other, even more bewildered.
After all, in the process of treating patients, acupuncture is only an aid; the main treatment relies on medication to regulate the patient's body.
Physician Li remained silent for a moment. He was not only the head of the Imperial Medical Academy, but also the most skilled acupuncturist in the court.
He had a deep understanding of silver needles, which is why he had the opportunity to receive a pure silver needle from an old man in the martial arts world.
Although Physician Li could hardly believe it, he still tentatively inquired about the emperor's well-being.
"Your Highness, that divine physician's silver needles are so fine they're almost invisible; they sway in the breeze and gleam with a silvery light?"
An Chang thought about it for a moment. He seemed to have never carefully observed the silver needles Zhou Ruo used. He thought they were just ordinary silver needles.
At this moment, An Nan, who had been sitting in the corner of the room the whole time, suddenly spoke in a childish voice:
"Yes, it was flashing with a dazzling silver light, and I could barely see it. I couldn't see the silver needles, I only saw the light."
It seemed as if no one had noticed the child who had been sitting quietly to the side listening to his elders speak.
