Chapter 5 Rejuvenating Jade
Su Junyao grabbed the old doctor's collar angrily, as if to say, "If you don't give me a reasonable explanation, I will drag you to the emperor to complain."
Doctor Wang was calm and composed, saying, "Don't worry, don't worry!"
Su Junyao: "How can I not be anxious?"
Seeing him so irritable, Doctor Wang kindly suggested: "Why don't I prescribe a medicine to calm the mind and spirit for the prince to take first."
Su Junyao: “…”
The poisoned patient said he was fine, but he, who was in good health, wanted to take medicine. What a quack!
Just as Su Junyao was about to explode, a childlike voice rang in his ear again: "Respect the elderly and care for the young, this is a miracle doctor!"
[Thighs, I want to hug you!]
A miracle doctor?
Su Junyao silently withdrew his hand at his wife's disapproving look, straightened Doctor Wang's wrinkled clothes, and immediately apologized: "I am the junior's reckless behavior, please forgive me. I wonder how my wife and daughter can detoxify?"
Doctor Wang was also an experienced doctor. He waved his hand to show that he was not concerned. He wrote down a prescription and handed it to the little medicine boy. "All medicines are toxic. Young lady, you are too young to take medicine for now. I will prescribe an antidote pill. Have someone crush it and apply it around your navel. The toxin will naturally be eliminated from your body in a few days."
[Great, I don't have to die!]
Grandpa, grandpa, please let me see my mother!
"As for your Madam..."
"how?"
Doctor Wang stroked his white beard. "The poison in your madam's body isn't fatal, but it will make you more worried. Over time, your body will be damaged. The slightest stimulation will cause you to fall ill, which will be detrimental to your lifespan."
This method is insidious. It won't give you a quick relief. It will slowly wear you down and destroy your mind bit by bit. If it's more severe, it will make you lose all your rationality and go crazy at times.
Jiujiu listened attentively, feeling uncomfortable in her heart. Her mother's health was damaged because of the shock of Jiujiu's death.
[We won't die! This time, none of us will die!]
Yun Jinglan held Jiujiu in her arms. Yes, she wouldn't die. Neither of them could die!
Su Junyao clenched his fists, he really couldn't imagine what life would be like without his wife.
"Chen He! Check it out for me! I want to find out when these vicious and sinister creatures who want to kill their master appeared in our mansion!"
"I'll bring them all over to the authorities. I'll use all 32 of the Ministry of Justice's criminal laws on them one by one, making sure they live in agony and die in this life!"
Su Junyao was truly furious. Chen He broke out in a cold sweat, unable to imagine how mad the prince would become if anything happened to his two masters.
Doctor Wang wrote the prescription and handed it to the maid, then packed up and left.
Just as he was about to stand up, he noticed a little guy looking at him with his head tilted.
At his age, he likes children who look like fairies. If he looks at them for a few more seconds, he feels that he will live a long life.
He thought for a moment and took out a peace locket from his bosom: "The first time I saw you, young lady, I was very fond of you. This peace locket was originally prepared for my granddaughter. If the prince and his wife don't mind, I will give it to you as a lucky charm."
Doctor Wang was originally a traveling physician. Because his son and daughter-in-law were murdered and he had no way to seek justice, he offered himself to His Majesty as a physician just to seek revenge. Unfortunately, his only granddaughter has not been found yet.
Doctor Wang also thought that this might be a bad omen, and paused for a moment, about to withdraw his hand.
"I forgot. This is not good. I was so reckless."
This made Qiuqiu extremely anxious, her face turning red with frustration: "My invulnerable Rejuvenating Jade!"
How come her two prodigal parents don’t know what good things are!
Yun Jinglan was immediately attracted by the idea of being immune to all poisons. Don't say she had impure intentions; as a parent, she naturally wanted the best for her children. Only with this Rejuvenating Jade could she feel at ease!
"Wait a minute, Doctor Wang! Doctor Wang is sincere, so why would he be wrong? Qiuyue, quickly hang the jade on the young lady."
Yun Jinglan bowed deeply to Doctor Wang. "It's a blessing for Jiujiu that Doctor Wang cherishes her so much. I heard that Doctor Wang used to live in Longchuan. My uncle from my mother's side is an official in Longchuan now. I will definitely ask him to pay attention to Miss Wang's affairs."
Seven years had passed, and Doctor Wang himself was about to give up hope. He wiped his eyes and looked at Jiujiu with increasing fondness.
"Thank you, Madam, for your good wishes."
[Thanks to Chuchu's good fortune, Grandpa will hug Chuchu, and by hugging Chuchu, he'll be able to find his big sister!]
Su Junyao took Jiujiu from Qiuyue's arms and clumsily held the child in front of Doctor Wang. "I see you really like this child. Why don't you hold her?"
We are all parents and can understand Doctor Wang’s feelings. Regardless of whether it is true or not, I hope that Jiujiu’s cuteness can make Doctor Wang feel better.
Doctor Wang took Qiuqiu, and for some reason, a surge of warmth rose in his heart, as he felt that the day he would be reunited with his granddaughter was not far off.
The elderly man's eyes were red, and his brows were full of vicissitudes. He was only fifty, but he looked like an octogenarian. Jiujiu struggled to raise her hand and touched the white hair at his temples.
Grandpa, don't cry. Go east. The person you're looking for is there.
Su Junyao said in a low voice: "Doctor Wang, Jijiu said to go east."
Doctor Wang looked up in surprise and said, "Jiujiu? Jiujiu can talk?"
It seems he really needs to take some medicine!
Su Junyao was confused by the sentimental look just now, but his mind suddenly cleared up and he quickly argued: "Look at our Jiujiu's little hands struggling to dig, isn't it the east side?"
"We've been searching the area where the accident happened for many years, so maybe the person is no longer in the Longchuan area. Why don't we look elsewhere?"
"I think my little chick is a lucky baby, maybe she's guiding you!"
Su Junyao didn’t know why he was so confident in his little guy. What Jiujiu said must be right!
Doctor Wang shook his head, hiding the bitterness in his heart, "It's getting late. What remains is the prince's family affairs. I can't disturb you. I will return to the palace now."
He searched everywhere in the world, but there was no news. He didn't know if this old man could wait until the day he could be reunited with his granddaughter.
Su Junyao saw the sadness in Doctor Wang's face. As a father himself, he naturally understood the pain. He personally escorted him out of the palace. He then asked his good friend, an official in the east, to help him find some information.
Wang Taiyi stood quietly in front of the Marquis of Wenyang's residence for a long time, not knowing why a voice in his heart kept guiding him to the east.
But it is even more ridiculous to believe it just because of a gesture from a baby who is not even a month old.
I don't know how long I stood there until the little medicine boy came forward and urged, "Master, where are we going now?"
Imperial Physician Wang tapped him on the head, "Return to the palace!"
He went to ask His Majesty for leave, as he was going to the east to search for someone!
Whether it's true or not, he's going to try it!
…………
Chiu Chiu slept soundly with rosy cheeks, looking as carefree as a 200-pound little piglet.
Yun Jinglan couldn't help but kiss the little round face, she couldn't believe that such a cute child was hers. She was even more excited than when she became a mother for the first time.
Qiuyue: "Madam, Chen He has captured several people, and the prince is interrogating them."
A ruthless glint flashed in Yun Jinglan's eyes. Her Jingxin Garden was indeed not clean!
She ordered sternly, "Go and speak to the prince, and have him interrogate you at his doorstep. Let me also hear which traitorous bastard dared to kill his master."
"Let everyone here, inside and out, know who the rightful Crown Prince's wife is!"
"Whether she can take my life or not remains to be seen!"
