Chapter 204 No one can touch the person I want to protect!
Seeing that she was still skeptical, Shu He continued, "Princess, betting a few more days of my life on your intact face should be a good deal, right?"
These words obviously moved her.
She calmed down, her voice no longer sharp, and she seemed to have returned to being the calm and dignified noblewoman she was before.
"Alright! I'll give you two days. If my face can't recover, I'll make sure you die!"
After she finished speaking, she waved her long sleeves and turned around very gracefully, as if the crazy woman who had just gone mad had nothing to do with her.
Shu He was simply overwhelmed by her ability to change her face!
"What are you standing there for? Why don't you go forward and heal the princess?!"
Baili Moqing's indifferent gaze revealed obvious dissatisfaction.
Shu He couldn't help but sneer, "The royal family is really overbearing. They asked for medical treatment by yelling!"
"Stop talking nonsense..."
"Yi Zong!" Baili Moqing's cold voice interrupted Yi Zong's words, "It's not your turn to threaten my people!"
Yi Zong narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was danger in his gaze.
But because he was afraid of his Shadow Guards, he finally took back those unpleasant words.
"That's enough!" Zhao Ming sat back on the bed, his long arms, as slender as mutton-fat jade, already extended outside the gauze curtain. "If you can't be cured, no matter who supports you, you will die!"
These words seemed to be spoken to Shu He, but anyone with a bit of common sense could tell that these words were meant for Baili Moqing.
Shu He was very unhappy and felt that the princess was ruining Baili Moqing's reputation!
She was about to speak when she heard the man's cold voice, soft and slow, but with great confidence and dominance.
"No one can touch the person I, Baili Moqing, want to protect!"
Shu He turned to look at him. Her already stunning face now held an incomparable allure that made her heart beat faster and her ears turn red.
Zhaoming lifted the gauze curtain and his eyes met the eyes of his concubine Baili Moqing, as if they were in a silent confrontation.
Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming tense again, Shu He quickly spoke.
"It's inconvenient for men to be present while the princess is being treated. Leave two maids behind, and everyone else, please leave!"
Upon hearing this, Yi Zong was worried, but he also knew that here, under this situation, no one would be stupid enough to harm the eldest princess.
Besides, the woman came for medical treatment. If it really did harm the princess, she would not have come.
After all the men left, Shu He stepped forward and took the eldest princess's pulse.
Her pulse was beating fast, and she was obviously nervous.
Is she worried that she can't be cured?
"Princess, your illness shouldn't have been this serious. Unfortunately, you have such poor self-control that you scratched the rashes on your face and body, causing them to worsen rapidly."
"If you hadn't scratched the rash, you would have recovered in two days. But now, two days is not enough, it will take at least five!"
After hearing this, the eldest princess could no longer sit still.
"He Shu, how dare you play tricks on me!"
"Princess, what I said is entirely true. But don't worry, although you won't be fully recovered in two days, the pustules and rashes on your body will improve, and those whose water hasn't broken may even disappear completely."
Seeing that she didn't seem to be lying, Zhao Ming hesitated and said, "Then my face..."
"Don't worry, even though I'm just a commoner, I still keep my word! I promised you a flawless face, and I won't break my promise!"
After saying that, Shu He took the patient's pulse and wrote down a prescription.
"This prescription is for internal use and should be used for two days." She handed the prescription to a maid, "Go get the medicine first."
After that, she took out a bottle of ointment from her medicine box and said, "Apply this medicine to the pustules or rashes that haven't broken yet. Lie still for a day, and the rashes will go away."
"So fast?" The eldest princess couldn't believe it. A disease that no doctor in the whole city could cure, she could cure with a bottle of ointment in just one day?
"Those things that haven't broken your water are minor issues. The biggest problem is those wounds that have been scratched. You need to take three doses of internal medicine before you can apply medicine to those wounds."
The maid took the ointment and immediately applied it to the eldest princess.
The ointment felt cool and refreshing when applied to her body, and it really seemed to relieve some of the stinging and itching in her body.
As the area covered with the medicine grew, the feeling became more pronounced. She could truly feel the torment in her body reduced by almost half.
"This medicine really works." The worry and tension in her heart almost disappeared.
"It's amazing that a woman like you has such medical skills!"
Shu He packed her medicine box and replied calmly, "If I didn't have any skills, a woman from Jianghu like me wouldn't be valued by Prince Dongli, let alone appear in front of the princess, right?"
"A Jianghu woman?"
No wonder a commoner was not at all restrained or afraid when he saw her. It turned out that they were just that group of unruly ruffians!
Just as I finished cleaning up, Liu Xi's voice came from outside the house.
"Princess, the Northern City Governor, Lord Su, and the military officer, Lord Yang, have arrived. They have the same illness as the princess. They heard that the prince's physician was here to treat the princess, so they came to seek medical attention as well."
Zhaoming nodded lightly, responding to Liu Xi's words.
After hearing Doctor Zhang say that he was poisoned, Yi Zong's first suspicion was this bundle of wheat.
It makes sense that she was resentful of him for using her child as a threat, so she poisoned her.
But later, Su Su came to visit and said that she had contracted an epidemic that was prevalent in the north of the city.
After asking carefully, I found out that she had the same virus as Su Su, Yang You and others. She also said that this disease can only be cured by the doctor of King Dongli, and there is a precedent of cure in the city.
After hearing those words, she finally put aside some of her doubts. However, like Yi Zong, she still had doubts about her illness.
However, all the evidence at present suggests that she is overthinking it.
Whether it is a disease or a poison, we need to test it again to confirm.
"As a doctor, Doctor He must have a benevolent heart to heal illnesses and save lives. Let them wait outside."
Shu He rolled her eyes silently. When did she agree to treat those two people?
The eldest princess is quite good at doing favors!
"Princess, the herbs needed for this ointment are hard to come by. They are all extremely precious. When Mr. Yi came yesterday, he said that he would pay a consultation fee for treating the princess. I would like to ask, is this true?"
Liu Xi was standing outside the door and sneered in his heart when he heard this.
Still wanting the consultation fee? By the time the princess recovers, it would be good enough if she doesn't die! She still wants the consultation fee!
"Compared to my life, what does a mere sum of money mean?"
Shu He smiled. He just liked people who were rich and powerful!
"Thank you, Princess!"
Seeing this, Liu Xi said, "Doctor He, please come this way."
Shu He followed Liu Xi and unexpectedly returned to the front yard. Shouldn't they go to the side yard to treat Su Su, Yang You and the others?
When she arrived at the front yard, it was already filled with people kneeling.
"Doctor He is here!" Liu Xi shouted with a wicked smile on his face, as if he was waiting to see the fun.
"Doctor He, help!"
"Please help me, Doctor He!"
For a moment, the people kneeling in the yard shouted loudly, asking Shu He to treat them.
Shu He was frightened by this sudden move and was a little confused.
"what's the situation?"
