Suddenly, a man dressed in a black robe embroidered with gold pythons stood before the crowd.

The man's aura was as cold as ice, like a god descending to earth, making people dare not look him in the eye.

The palace maids and eunuchs quickly bowed their heads to greet Xiao Xuan.

Consort Chen glanced at Xiao Xuan indifferently, her eyes revealing even more ferocity.

Looking down at Ning Yin wiping the blood from the emperor, Consort Chen wanted to reprimand her again, but then she heard Xiao Xuan's dignified and indifferent voice.

"Guards, take this female physician away from me!"

Xiao Xuan's eyes were devoid of any emotion, as if the person in front of him was a complete stranger.

As soon as the order was given, the Qingyu Guards behind him quickly stepped forward to grab Ning Yin's arm.

Ning Yin was so busy wiping the blood off the emperor that she didn't pay any attention to the people behind her.

"Wait, if you want to arrest me, you have to let me remove the silver needles first. Once the blood clots have drained, His Majesty will be fine."

"It's nothing, why are you trying to stall for time? If anything happens to His Majesty, I will exterminate your entire clan! Imperial Physician Chen, come here immediately to treat His Majesty!"

Consort Chen coldly rebuked him, then looked up at the two Qingyu Guards, who immediately dragged the man up.

"Let me go, you guys!"

Ning Yin's voice also carried a hint of force, but as a weak woman, how could she possibly stand up to the Crown Prince's men?

Dragged along by the two men, Ning Yin only noticed the so-called crown prince when they passed by Xiao Xuan's side.

The person was wearing a half-mask, but from the remaining facial features, she felt a strong sense of déjà vu.

When Ning Yin was dragged to the door, Xiao Xuan didn't even turn around to look at her, as if he didn't recognize Ning Yin. He just stared intently at the emperor on the bed.

At this moment, Judge Chen had already removed all the silver needles from the emperor's head and then placed his hand on the emperor's pulse.

Upon touching the emperor, Chen Yuanpan was also taken aback; the emperor's pulse was steady and his heartbeat was normal.

Although His Majesty's heart ailment has not been completely cured, his pulse has returned to normal, only slightly weaker than that of a healthy person.

Could it be that Ning Yin really has some skills? She solved most of the problem that even Judge Lu couldn't solve with just one acupuncture treatment.

The emperor had recovered considerably by now, and his complexion was gradually regaining its rosy hue.

"How is it, Imperial Physician!"

Consort Chen asked anxiously, not because she was worried about the emperor's health, but because the emperor was her support in the harem.

With the emperor's presence, she could command the wind and rain, becoming the most honored imperial concubine in the entire harem, with everyone having to bow down to her.

However, if the emperor were to pass away at this time, and her son had not yet ascended the throne, she would become a neglected concubine.

The lives of the imperial concubines were filled with misery. They were either spending their time alone with the ancient Buddha or being forced to guard the imperial tombs. Those who were less fortunate might even be dragged down to be buried alive with the emperor.

Although she was not forced to be buried alive with the emperor, her goal was to become the most honored woman in the world—the Empress Dowager.

She's still young; how could she possibly let go of fame and fortune?

Thinking about it, Consort Chen began to angrily berate Eunuch Zhuang.

"Eunuch Zhuang, what a mess you've made! Bringing in a woman like this makes me suspicious of your intentions. Could it be that you've been bribed by that lowly maid?"

Eunuch Zhuang, who was already so frightened that his legs went weak, knelt down with a thud.

"Your Majesty, how dare this servant be so audacious? This servant's heart is only for His Majesty's sake..."

As Consort Chen was scolding, Xiao Xuan strode to the bedside. He knew Ning Yin's medical skills better than anyone else.

They were not worried about the emperor's safety at all. This situation was probably just the body expelling stagnant blood, and they would recover in a while.

He had just finished court today and was planning to secretly visit Ningyin at the Imperial Hospital in a sedan chair when he heard Qingying return and report to him.

It is said that as soon as Miss Ning entered the Imperial Hospital, Eunuch Zhuang summoned her to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Although he believed in Ning Yin's medical skills, he did not trust Consort Chen and others.

So Xiao Xuan immediately took out the pure gold mask that had been made overnight and put it on. Then he rushed to the Hall of Mental Cultivation without stopping.

"Father, how are you feeling?"

Seeing the emperor's complexion becoming increasingly rosy, Xiao Xuan felt relieved.

The emperor looked up at Xiao Xuan's mask and couldn't help but ask a question.

"Your Highness, why are you wearing a mask?"

"Father, the seasons have changed, and I have developed some rashes on my face. I am afraid of disturbing you."

"Cough cough... Why did I get a rash? Let that little female doctor take a look. I'm feeling much better now. I just vomited so much blood, but now I feel full of energy. I can't feel any of that stuffiness, shortness of breath, dizziness, or weakness anymore!"

The emperor smiled and looked down, trying to find Ning Yin.

"Where did that little female doctor go?!"

He had been coughing so violently, and because of the blood he was spitting out, he didn't notice at all that Ning Yin had already been dragged out by Xiao Xuan's men.

By now, that group of people must have safely delivered the person to the East Palace.

The emperor looked around but couldn't find Ning Yin, then turned back and glared coldly at Consort Chen.

"Where did you take them?!"

Consort Chen looked innocent and resentful; she hadn't expected this woman to actually have some skill.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty didn't do anything to her! It was the Crown Prince who took her away!"

Consort Chen was so anxious that she quickly tried to shirk responsibility. She could tell that the emperor truly valued the female physician.

Upon hearing that Ning Yin had been taken away by Xiao Xuan, the emperor clutched his chest in anger, "Crown Prince, release her immediately! This woman truly possesses the talent of a divine physician."

“She is a hundred times better than that Judge Lu. You must keep her here for me. In the future, I will rely on her to take care of my health.”
