After a while, Chen Xi came out and enthusiastically brought Chaoge in.
"Miss, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Our master invites you in."
Chaoge nodded, followed Chenxi across the threshold of the bedroom, and under his guidance, entered the bedroom of Prince Chen.
Prince Chen finally got up from the couch and waited for her on the armchair in the main hall outside the bedroom.
Chaoge stepped forward, bowed slightly, and raised her eyes to meet the gaze of Prince Chen, who was sizing her up.
"It turns out that the female doctor is so young. On the way back that day, I was helped by the female doctor."
The words "female hero doctor" coming from the mouth of the sickly Prince Chen in front of him made Chaoge feel inexplicably funny.
But she couldn't laugh in this situation.
"Your Majesty, you are too polite. Let's get straight to the point. I usually don't see patients. If I do, the consultation fee will be quite high."
Chaoge's directness also made Prince Chen classify her as a person with a strange temperament.
He looked at the young woman in front of him with great interest. She had delicate facial features and fair, translucent skin. Her skin was so moist, fair and delicate that he had never seen on any other woman before.
"Oh, I wonder how much the consultation fee is, lady?"
Prince Chen looked Chaoge up and down, and a hint of amazement rose in his eyes.
I have been in Gongzhou City for several years. Gongzhou has strong winds and sandstorms, few green plants, and the climate is dry and cold in winter. It is rare to find such beautiful women here.
Moreover, this woman was not only good at martial arts but also knew medical skills, which made Prince Chen think highly of Chaoge.
"Let me check the pulse of the prince first and then decide the fee. If it is a simple disease, a thousand taels of gold will be enough. But if it is a complicated disease, it is not that simple."
"What?! A thousand taels of gold!
And, it's only for simple symptoms? You are such a talkative woman, aren't you?
If it was a simple illness, would our master have spent a thousand taels of gold to see you? You better not take the opportunity to blackmail him. You have to know that the person in front of you is the current Prince Chen. "
"If the prince can't afford the consultation fee, just find someone else to see him. I didn't really want to come anyway."
Facing Chen Hui's exclamation and shock, as well as those impolite words, Chaoge didn't give him any sway and said lightly.
After these words were spoken, Prince Chen opened his mouth slightly, Chen Hui's eyes widened immediately, and even Chen Xi was shocked and looked embarrassed.
"Chenhui, don't say that. The girl must have something extraordinary. The master has had this disease since childhood. Don't make the girl angry and harm the master."
Seeing Chaoge being so arrogant, Chenxi hurriedly moved closer to Chenhui and whispered a reminder in his ear.
Thinking about his master's illness, Chen Hui forced himself to suppress his hot temper after being comforted by Chen Xi.
Anyway, at this moment, he was already looking at Chaoge who was standing opposite him, and he was extremely unhappy.
"The girl is really a person of good nature. She can speak her mind so frankly and not beat around the bush like others. I actually admire her even more.
In that case, please feel my pulse first to find out the truth. If the fee is too high, I may not be able to afford it. Then I can only leave it to fate."
After being slightly surprised, Prince Chen looked back and glared coldly at Chen Hui who was standing beside him. He retracted his gaze and when he looked at Chaoge again, his eyes were already full of humility.
Seeing that Prince Chen was such a polite and easy-going person, Chaoge didn't want to continue to be so cautious. She walked to Prince Chen and sat down on the armchair on the other side of Prince Chen without any hesitation.
Everyone already knew that Chaoge was a person with personality, and no one was surprised by her rudeness anymore.
Even Prince Chen was the same. When Chaoge put her hand on the coffee table, he hurriedly lifted up his sleeves and moved his wrist towards Chaoge.
When the white fingers rested on Prince Chen's sickly and delicate wrist, Prince Chen subconsciously tensed up his body.
It's embarrassing to say that even though the Prince is already in his twenties, he has never touched a woman.
The emperor offered him marriage proposals several times, but he directly refused them all on the grounds of his weak health.
As time went by, the emperor lost interest in this son and didn't even care about his future. Could he really use him?
After ascending the throne, all adult princes had to go to their fiefdoms, so he just randomly gave this son a fiefdom in a place that relied entirely on economic and trade exchanges and had underdeveloped agriculture. He even ignored the rampant bandits here.
So in the true sense, Chaoge took Prince Chen's pulse. This was the first time Prince Chen was touched by a woman.
"When I take your pulse, try to relax as much as possible, otherwise I won't be able to tell."
Chaoge's soft voice suddenly made Prince Chen's ears turn red. He took two deep breaths in a hurry before calming himself down.
After a short while, Chaoge's fingers were removed from Prince Chen's wrist. Her face was still expressionless, and the master and his servants could not see any sign of a miracle from her expression.
"Prince Chen was born with a heart disease. He may have caught colds frequently in his childhood, which left him with tracheitis. If it was just tracheitis, he would have a hard time in winter. But Prince Chen also has a heart disease, which is enough to take your life at any time."
"The lady is really a skilled doctor. In just a short while, she has figured out all of our master's illnesses!"
Chen Xi, who was standing aside, did not change his expression drastically because of Chaoge's straightforward words. He, King Chen, and Chen Hui did not change their expressions. This was something they had known for more than ten years, so when Chaoge said it, apart from being shocked by Chaoge's medical skills, they were not afraid of those words.
"I can tell this kind of disease by feeling the pulse."
"Then... I wonder if there is any cure for this disease of mine?"
"You are lucky to have met me, Prince Chen. The consultation fee is 10,000 taels of gold."
King Chen!
Morning light!
Chenxi!
Chaoge put his hand away, straightened his clothes, and said calmly, completely ignoring the shocked expressions of the three people present.
"You, you, you, do you know what you are talking about? Ten thousand taels of gold? Why don't you just go and rob? Do you know how much this ten thousand taels of gold is?"
Chen Hui couldn't control his hot temper for a moment, and accidentally yelled at Chaoge again.
"Isn't it just 100,000 taels of silver? Why? Do you think it's a lot?"
"Isn't that enough?! Woman, have you ever seen what 100,000 taels of silver look like?"
Chen Hui was furious, he really couldn't stand Chaoge's nonchalant look, especially when he saw Chaoge, who was obviously dressed in ordinary clothes, but when he talked about 12,000 taels of gold, he looked relaxed and indifferent, as if it wasn't a lot. He disliked it even more!
