Chapter 414 How can you be called a little genius doctor if you don’t have medical skills?
"Okay, I still have to go to Ninghe Palace, so I'll leave now."
The Queen muttered as she walked, "How can you call yourself a little doctor if you don't have any medical skills? I've wasted all my efforts. I should have just gone to any clinic and got a doctor here."
Jin Congcong looked at the Queen's hurriedly leaving back and opened his mouth: "Isn't she the Queen? Why is she swearing so vulgarly?"
…
At the gate of Ninghe Palace, the head maid gently tugged at the Queen's sleeve: "Your Majesty, please don't forget what the princess told you to do. Please put away your smile."
The Queen raised her hand and touched the corner of her lips: "Is it obvious?"
"It's obvious that you're just here to watch the fun."
Queen: ...
"Okay, I understand. I'll try to think of something sad."
Senior Palace Maid: ...
Just as the queen was about to go in, she saw the old emperor hurried over, supported by palace servants.
"Queen? Why are you here?"
The Queen gave a perfunctory bow and said, "Your Majesty, I greet you. I heard there was an assassin in the palace. My sister just had a miscarriage and is not feeling well. I came to see her so I wouldn't frighten her."
The emperor hummed and said, "Since the queen is so thoughtful, let's go in together."
The queen was delighted. This old man liked beautiful and gentle faces the most, as if that could reflect his importance in being relied upon. But she didn't know what he would think when he saw Concubine Zhang. Would the little blood he had been given be enough for him to spit out?
As expected, just as they reached the door to the bedroom, they heard Concubine Zhang throwing things and roaring, "Waste! Waste! How could the Imperial Hospital keep such a bunch of losers like you! If you can't heal my face, I will kill all of you, the imperial doctors! All of you!"
The emperor frowned when he heard the scolding and walked in. The queen followed behind him and murmured softly: "After so many years, that gentle facade is finally being torn off."
The head maid tugged at her master's sleeve again: "My Lady, please stop laughing."
The queen coughed lightly and pinched her thigh hard until her eyes turned red from the pain before she followed him in.
"emperor……"
As soon as the Queen entered, she saw Concubine Zhang sitting in the old emperor's arms and said, "Your Majesty, please stop looking at me. My face is ruined, and these quack doctors say it can't be cured."
"Your Majesty, I have already lost my child. If I lose my beauty, how can I live?"
As soon as the emperor entered the room, Concubine Zhang rushed over. Before the emperor even had time to look at her face, she lowered her head. Not only the emperor, but even the queen couldn't help but gasp.
A deep knife scar ran from the left eyebrow to the right chin, deep enough to see the bone, and even the nose was cut open.
The old emperor was frightened and pushed Concubine Zhang away and took two steps back. Perhaps he felt that this was inappropriate and coughed twice. He looked at the head of the Imperial Hospital who was kneeling on the ground and shouted angrily: "Concubine Zhang's face is so badly injured, why haven't you bandaged it yet? What are you doing?"
The chief physician of the Imperial Hospital was about to cry. He kowtowed to the ground, saying, "Your Majesty, it's not that I won't bandage the Imperial Concubine. It's that the Imperial Concubine is too painful to let me treat her."
"The Queen's nose needs to be sewn up with special needles and thread, but when she heard it would leave a scar, she refused to do it..."
The emperor frowned. "Leaving scars? Doesn't the Imperial Hospital have scar removal ointment? How could it leave scars?"
The head of the Imperial Hospital was completely overwhelmed. "Your Majesty, there are scar removal ointments, but the wound on Your Majesty's face is too deep. Even the best scar removal medicine can only make the scar lighter, not completely remove it. It will be like there was no injury at all."
"However... I have heard that there is a miracle doctor in the Great Zhou. He has a scar-removing ointment that he developed himself. It is said that no matter how severe the scar is, as long as the wound scabs over and it is applied for a period of time, it will be as good as new."
The old emperor looked at the imperial concubine and kept comforting her: "Don't worry, I will send someone to Da Zhou to invite that miracle doctor, and I will definitely not let you have a scar on your face."
The head of the Imperial Hospital lowered his head even more. "Your Majesty, there's no need to go to the Great Zhou to ask for him. I heard that the miraculous doctor has a very good relationship with the Regent and his wife of the Great Zhou. He also came to the Imperial City with them this time. I went to visit him a few days ago... but didn't see him."
Now the old emperor was in a dilemma. The miracle doctor had a good relationship with the regent and his wife. The Zhang family had just offended that couple. If they asked their miracle doctor to treat the imperial concubine, they would definitely not agree.
The national treasury and his own private treasury have been depleted because of the compensation issue. If the other party asks for more, he won't even be able to afford to eat.
When Concubine Zhang heard that there was a miracle doctor who could cure her face, her eyes lit up. "Your Majesty, I've heard that the Empress is very close to the Regent Princess. I'm sure the Regent Princess will do her a favor and allow me to treat her. I just wonder if the Empress would condescend to ask the Princess Princess for my sake."
"If it's too difficult, forget it. At worst...at worst, I can just hang myself with a white silk thread. I will never let this face taint the emperor's eyes."
The old emperor was moved and held the imperial concubine in his arms without looking at her face.
"The Queen is the head of the harem and has always been tolerant and generous. I believe that the Queen will definitely ask that miracle doctor to come and treat you."
The Queen snorted coldly and sat down on a chair, looking at the couple in front of her. "I can ask for it, but I can't guarantee that it will come true. After all, my sister's nephew once tried to kidnap the princess and her two children, and my sister's sister-in-law's daughter tried every means to seduce the regent and assassinate the princess."
"Even if I am the queen, I am only the queen of Beining. I cannot be the master of the regent princess of the Great Zhou."
"As for my sister saying that I have a good relationship with the princess, it's because my sister's family, the Gu family, offended the princess, and I'm just here to uphold justice."
"So if I can't come to Your Majesty, don't blame me. After all, it wasn't me who offended the Regent Princess."
The old emperor was speechless. Yes, if this happened to him, let alone asking a miracle doctor to treat him, he would be considered kind if he didn't gloat over his misfortune in person.
but……
"Queen, you should give it a try. What if the princess is someone who repays evil with kindness?"
The queen was speechless. The princess was kind, but it depended on who she was treating.
She had heard from Guo Lu that the princess was kind only to good people. She could spend nearly one million taels of silver to buy food and medicine for disaster relief without blinking an eye, and she could also use up her divine power to stop the rain for the people.
But if they meet bastards like the Zhang family, death might be their best outcome.
Just as the queen was about to get up, a palace maid from Ninghe Palace came to report that someone had been sent by the Regent Princess of the Great Zhou Dynasty and was waiting at the palace gate.
