The little guy was naturally innocent and outspoken; upon hearing Guo Ningfei say that he had a rare and serious illness,

Zhu Ming was startled on the spot, his little face instantly turning panicked, and he blurted out, "Ah? Even Physician Dai can't diagnose this illness, Aunt Guo, are you going to die?"

Guo Ningfei's feigned weakness froze instantly; she had only wanted to exaggerate her illness to highlight her noble status.

No one expected that Zhu Ming would be so sweet-talking, immediately announcing the start of a banquet in the palace.

If this little fellow weren't the precious Sixth Prince, deeply loved by His Majesty and the Empress.

Otherwise, based solely on that unlucky remark from earlier...

She could immediately summon palace servants to drag the person out and beat them to death.

Consort Guo suppressed her displeasure, gently patted Zhu Ming's hand, and said in a feigned aggrieved tone, "You child, you finally come to your aunt's place, why do you keep saying such unlucky things?"

"I'm just feeling unwell, it's not to the extent you're describing!"

Zhu Ming blinked, completely oblivious to the other party's displeasure, and said innocently:

"But Imperial Physician Dai is the most famous physician in the Imperial Medical Academy. If even he can't find anything wrong, I can't help but be a little worried!"

Upon hearing this, even if Consort Guo was furious, she could only swallow her anger back down.

A moment later, she reached out and rubbed Zhu Ming's head, forcing a smile from her stiff face: "Alright, alright, it was my fault. I shouldn't have frightened our Sixth Prince."

At this moment, Consort Guo Ning suddenly remembered the rumor she had heard yesterday that the Sixth Prince had been accepted as a personal disciple by the Dao Ancestor.

His Majesty was overjoyed and issued a special proclamation to the world, celebrating the occasion with all!

But she remained skeptical, feeling that the matter was too far-fetched and might not be true.

This is a golden opportunity.

I'll use the excuse of seeing a doctor to test the waters!

Let's see if this rumor is just an exaggerated story or if it's true.

Consort Guo Ning held Zhu Ming's little hand and said with a smile, "Recently, there has been a lot of talk in the palace that you have become a disciple of the Dao Ancestor and possess unparalleled immortal techniques."

"Since the imperial physician surnamed Dai cannot diagnose my illness, why don't you take a look?"

Zhu Ming pointed to the tip of his nose with his small hand, dumbfounded, and said, "Me?"

Seeing his reaction, Consort Guo assumed he was unwilling, so she immediately put on a stern face and pretended to be angry, saying, "What, you're not happy?"

"Your aunt used to dote on you so much, but you won't even help with something as simple as seeing a doctor. Have you forgotten that you drank your aunt's milk when you were little?"

After saying that, Consort Guo Ning reached out and lightly tapped Zhu Ming's forehead, muttering, "What a heartless little brat!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Ming's face turned bright red.

It's not that he's unwilling, but he really doesn't understand medical matters!

Even his claim that he was a direct disciple of the Dao Ancestor was a fabrication; the Dao Ancestor himself probably didn't even know he had an extra disciple.

However, no matter how he explained, Guo Ningfei insisted on her own ideas.

Who is the Dao Ancestor?

That's a deity even more powerful than the Jade Emperor.

As his personally trained disciple, treating a patient is a piece of cake for you.

You're clearly not happy about it!

Now, Zhu Ming finally understood what it meant to lift a rock only to drop it on your own foot; the boomerang he had thrown earlier had hit him right on the forehead.

Just when the little guy was in a dilemma.

Dai Yuanli, who had been standing in the background, finally stepped forward. He was afraid that if he didn't show up soon, the audience would forget who he was.

He turned sideways and quietly approached Zhu Ming, whispering, "Sixth Prince, the Imperial Concubine only has heatstroke, not some serious illness. Two bowls of plum juice will cure her!"

The little guy suddenly realized, his heart immediately settled, and he nodded quickly and imperceptibly at Dai Yuanli.

Consort Guo Ning did not notice the subtle interaction between the two. She remained leaning against the soft couch, one hand supporting her forehead, maintaining a sickly appearance.

At this moment, Zhu Ming sorted out his thoughts, looked up at Consort Guo Ning, and said in a serious tone, "Aunt, I know what illness you have!"

Upon hearing this, Consort Guo immediately straightened up and asked expectantly, "You figured it out? What illness is it?"

Zhu Ming nodded, put his hands behind his back, his face tense, and adopted a mysterious expression before slowly speaking:

"Auntie, have you been feeling dizzy, heavy-headed, with a tightness in your chest, and feeling weak and sluggish all over lately? And sometimes you also feel inexplicably anxious and restless?"

"Yes, yes, you're right!" Guo Ningfei nodded repeatedly, her eyes becoming increasingly expectant. "Besides these, I also constantly feel nauseous and have no appetite at all. So what illness do I have?"

Zhu Ming sighed suddenly, like a little adult, and then solemnly uttered a few words: "You've contracted Heavenly Fire Invasion and Disruption Syndrome!"

"Heavenly fire? Invasion? Disruption syndrome?" Guo Ningfei muttered unconsciously.

The name sounds very serious, perfectly befitting her status as a noble consort.

Consort Guo believed it without hesitation!

"Ming'er, is this illness serious?"

Zhu Ming's expression was grave, and he replied in a deep voice with a tense face, "It's quite serious. If left unchecked, it could endanger your life."

Consort Guo's face paled instantly. She quickly grabbed Zhu Ming's sleeve, her voice filled with panic and grievance, "Ah! Ming'er, your aunt has always doted on you since you were little. You absolutely cannot stand by and watch me die!"

Zhu Mingqiang suppressed a laugh and said in a pretentious tone, "Auntie, don't panic. Fortunately, you've met me. I happen to have a way to cure your illness."

Consort Guo leaned forward, asking anxiously, "What method? Tell your aunt quickly!"

Zhu Ming, with his hands behind his back, replied calmly, "I have a prescription here. Later, you can have someone prepare the medicine according to my prescription. The first main ingredient is three Tian Shan snow lotuses."

Upon hearing this, Consort Guo's eyes lit up.

If she had only believed 70% of it before...

But once the Tianshan Snow Lotus appeared, she believed it completely!

Upon hearing this, Consort Guo breathed a sigh of relief, her brows and eyes relaxed, and she said with a touch of pride, "I knew it! With my status, a minor illness like heatstroke is hardly worthy of me! It really does require rare and precious medicines to treat."

However, no sooner had he said that than Zhu Ming continued, "Two ginseng roots from the old mountains outside the pass."

Consort Guo Ning grew even more smug and quickly turned to her personal maid, raising her voice to give the order:

"What are you all standing there for? Quickly take notes and write this down. We'll go get the medicine later according to the prescription the Sixth Prince gave us!"

Dai Yuanli, who was standing to the side, was terrified.

Snow lotus is cold in nature, while ginseng is warm and nourishing; the two medicinal materials have conflicting properties.

The Empress is simply suffering from heatstroke.

This combination can easily harm your health.

He quickly stepped forward, about to offer his advice.

Zhu Ming stopped him with a single look.

Although Dai Yuanli didn't understand, he swallowed his words out of trust in the Sixth Prince.

Alright, let's wait and see how the Sixth Prince plans to prepare this prescription.

Zhu Ming then announced the remaining medicinal herbs, each one a rare and precious treasure: "A pair of Ling Mountain deer antlers, a set of East Sea tortoise shells..."

Consort Guo Ning felt relieved upon hearing this, and even the dizziness and irritability caused by heatstroke dissipated considerably, her eyes filled with self-satisfaction.

"I have a particular fondness for these rare items that sound priceless. Qing'er, you must memorize them carefully, word for word, and not miss a single medicinal ingredient."

The maid named Qing'er immediately bowed her head, her hand holding the pen not daring to slacken in the slightest: "Yes, Your Highness, this servant will definitely remember everything."

Zhu Ming kept a straight face, but secretly chuckled to himself. As expected, Aunt Guo was most susceptible to this kind of pomp and circumstance.

The rarer and more precious the natural treasures, the more pleased she felt upon hearing about them.

When Zhu Ming stopped,

Consort Guo Ning immediately leaned forward and asked impatiently, "Ming'er, should I eat these medicinal herbs directly or make them into a soup?"

Unexpectedly, Zhu Ming shook his head and smiled mysteriously, saying, "We don't need to chew them dry or boil them into soup. These rare and precious herbs are all medicinal ingredients. We just need to divide them into portions, arrange them on plates, and place them around the hall."

Consort Guo Ning was taken aback, her face full of doubt. "Just display it? How can that cure the illness?"

"The key to curing the disease lies in..." Zhu Ming paused, then quickly said, "Two bowls of plum juice and some ice cubes, drink them all at once, and you will be basically cured."

Although Consort Guo Ning found it somewhat strange,

But the thought of having a room full of precious medicinal herbs to complement his ailment made him feel quite pleased.

So she immediately instructed the maid, "What are you all standing around for? Quickly do as the Sixth Prince says! Arrange the spiritual ingredients properly, and brew the plum juice immediately!"

Dai Yuanli stood aside and sighed inwardly.

The Sixth Prince's method is truly ingenious.

It would both please the Empress's desire for a respectable life and make her willingly drink plum juice to cool off in the summer heat.

Meanwhile, in villages hundreds of miles away...

Xu Miaoyun was surrounded by dozens of people.

She wore the air pistol that Zhu Ming had left her before he left on her right index finger, feeling extremely anxious, and frequently looked towards the direction of the capital.

He thought anxiously to himself: Why hasn't the Sixth Prince returned yet?

He hasn't forgotten about me, has he?

……

Gyeongbokgung Palace

The little guy suddenly slapped his forehead, looking regretful, and said, "Oh dear, I almost forgot something important!"

The voice has not fallen,

He grabbed Dai Yuanli beside him and hurriedly turned and ran out of the hall.

Dai Yuanli's soul remained where it was, his body being dragged along by the Sixth Prince, his heart filled with shock.

He used to frequently enter the palace to take the Sixth Prince's pulse.

They knew Zhu Ming's physical condition perfectly well.

However, after only a few days apart,

The opponent's strength had increased to such an exaggerated level.

In his presence, she felt like a newly hatched chick, utterly powerless to resist.

Is this still the same frail and sickly Sixth Prince?

Dai Yuanli staggered, his body pulled helplessly by Zhu Ming, and hurriedly cried out, "Sixth Prince, where are you taking me in such a hurry?"

Seeing this, Consort Guo Ning quickly called out to stop the two:

"Ming'er, where are you rushing off to? Your aunt hasn't had a chance to properly thank you yet."

Zhu Ming didn't even turn his head, but simply waved his hand at her: "Auntie, please wait and drink your plum juice. I'll take Physician Dai out to save lives first. It's a matter of life and death, and we can't delay. I'll come back to see you another day!"

Having said that, she stopped and quickly led Dai Yuanli out of Gyeongbokgung Palace.

As soon as he stepped out of the palace gate, Zhu Ming stopped and shouted to the sky, "Somersault Cloud!"

As soon as the words were spoken, a fluffy, soft auspicious cloud flew swiftly from the sky and came to a steady stop in front of the two of them in the blink of an eye.

Dai Yuanli, standing to the side, stared in disbelief at the clouds and mist before him, speechless for a moment.

Zhu Ming leaped up and landed steadily on the somersault cloud. He turned back to look at Dai Yuanli, who was standing there dumbfounded with shock in his eyes, and urged him urgently, "Jump up quickly! There are people outside waiting for you to save their lives. We can't delay!"

Dai Yuanli stared at the auspicious clouds floating beneath his feet, his legs trembling uncontrollably.

After hesitating for a moment, Dai Yuanli gritted his teeth and, imitating Zhu Ming's earlier actions, leaped into the air.

As a result, the Sixth Prince stood steadily on the cloud.

He walked straight through the auspicious clouds and fell heavily to the ground.

Seeing this, Zhu Ming scratched his head and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, it was my oversight. I forgot to tell you that people with impure thoughts and ulterior motives cannot ride the Somersault Cloud."

Dai Yuanli struggled to his feet, his hands bracing against the ground. He was covered in dust and dirt, but more than anything, he was horrified.

Is the Sixth Prince about to ascend to heaven?

They even came up with the idea of ​​flying through the clouds!

However, before Dai Yuanli could even come to his senses...

Zhu Ming suddenly pulled a coarse cloth sack from his pocket and said to him, "Imperial Physician Dai, I apologize for any offense!"

After saying that, Zhu Ming opened the bag and stuffed him inside.

Zhu Ming quickly tightened the bag, threw it on his back, leaped onto the somersault cloud, and flew swiftly towards Xu Miaoyun.

In no time at all

Zhu Ming rode the somersault cloud back to the village he had just been in.

However, when he looked down, he found that Xu Miaoyun was surrounded by dozens of figures.

Zhu Ming's heart tightened, thinking that Sister Miaoyun was in danger, and he immediately shouted, "Stop it, all of you!"

The next second, he descended from the sky and landed directly in front of Xu Miaoyun.

At this moment, the little guy looked slightly angry, took out the magnifying lamp and held it in his hand, ready to transform at any time.

But when he looked up,

He found that everyone in front of him was kneeling on the ground with their heads bowed, showing no sign of making a move.

Zhu Ming's hand, which was holding the magnifying lamp, froze in mid-air.

For a moment, I was a little confused.

Meanwhile, Dai Yuanli, who was in the sack on his back, was still asking what was happening outside.

And at this moment,

Wang Cheng'an came running up, sweating profusely, shouting as he ran, "Misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding! Immortal Lord, please have mercy!"

Zhu Ming slowly lowered the magnifying lamp and raised an eyebrow at him.

"What happened?"

Wang Cheng'an quickly replied, "These people are the villagers that His Highness instructed me to gather earlier. I brought them here."

"When everyone saw the fairy standing here alone, they were momentarily reserved and instinctively gathered around her, without any ill intent whatsoever."

"On the contrary, they all revere your divine powers, Immortal Lord, which is why they hurriedly knelt down to pay their respects. They have absolutely no ill intentions whatsoever!"

At the same time, dozens of villagers nearby kowtowed and shouted, "Greetings, Immortal Lord!"

After struggling inside the sack for a while, Dai Yuanli finally spoke up in a muffled voice, "Your Highness, is it safe outside? Do we no longer need to take action?"

Zhu Ming casually put the sack on his back on the ground and released Dai Yuanli.

As soon as Dai Yuanli showed his face, he was startled by what he saw.

No, Your Highness, where did you take him?

Is this still the capital city?
