1238 Medical Treatment, the Tragic Life of Prince Zhai

Early the next morning, Imperial Noble Consort Xie and the Eighth Prince arrived at Feng Mansion under the escort of Zhai Dongming. The miles-long procession and guards gave Feng Qingchen a headache. He knelt and kowtowed until noon before he finally welcomed them into the mansion. Feng Qingchen was so tired that he felt dizzy.

This wasn't about treating someone's illness; this was about welcoming two giant Buddhas into the house. If Feng Qingchen didn't want to have some peace and quiet, she really wouldn't want to let Imperial Noble Consort Xie and the Eighth Prince come to Feng Mansion.

Imperial Noble Consort Xie and the Eighth Prince were very happy. It was not easy for a concubine to leave the palace. This was the first time she had left the palace after entering it for decades.

As for the Eighth Prince, he was so happy to see the excitement that he was dancing with joy, his wet eyes were full of smiles, which made Feng Qingchen feel itchy, and he wanted to hold him in his arms and give him a good kiss, but...

Seeing the two unfamiliar palace maids beside Imperial Concubine Xie, Feng Qingchen said nothing. He settled Imperial Concubine Xie down, letting her rest for a day and prepare for the operation tomorrow.

After Feng Qingchen left the yard, he was stopped by Zhai Dongming. Zhai Dongming pulled Feng Qingchen to a corner and asked Feng Qingchen in a low voice about his illness.

Feng Qingchen slapped her forehead... Sister, she only knew to write a letter to the Valley Master, but forgot to tell Zhai Dongming about it.

"Young Master, I have checked your condition and the problem is indeed with you. It is difficult for you to make a woman pregnant." To say it was difficult was an understatement. Given Zhai Dongming's condition, it was basically impossible for a woman to get pregnant.

Although Zhai Dongming was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but feel depressed when he heard Feng Qingchen say it directly, and asked sullenly: "Can it be cured?"

If a man cannot even leave offspring, what kind of man is he?

Feng Qingchen wanted to say yes, but...

"I'm not good at treating this kind of disease. I have already written your condition to the master of Xuanyi Valley. The genius doctor Chi Lianshui and the poison doctor Guo Baoji are both there. With the three of them here, there shouldn't be any big problems." With so many top talents gathered together, if they can't solve Zhai Dongming's problem, then Zhai Dongming will really be hopeless. Anyway, she can't do it.

"I hope so." Zhai Dongming's expression eased a little, but his tone was still low.

Feng Qingchen sighed secretly. She really didn't know how to comfort Zhai Dongming about this matter. This matter was related to male dignity. Feng Qingchen couldn't bear to see Zhai Dongming continue to be depressed, so she talked about other things.

"My Lord, aren't you in charge of the fight between the Imperial Guards and the Blood-Clothed Guards? How did you find time to escort the Imperial Concubine here?" Zhai Dongming was the general who protected the city. How could he be wasted his talent by escorting a prince and the imperial concubine?

"Don't mention it." Zhai Dongming became even more depressed when he mentioned this matter: "General An's grandson and the son of Marquis Yongying are both dead. Both families have only one son. Once this grandson and son die, the two families will be extinct. These two people have recently caused a commotion in the palace and want the emperor to give them an explanation.

The generals of the Blood-Clothed Guards and the Imperial Guards were all held jointly responsible and were demoted and dismissed from their posts. Those who participated in the fight were all sent to prison. I was unlucky and was implicated.

The safety of the imperial city is under my charge. I didn't arrive in time when something like this happened, resulting in casualties. I have an unshirkable responsibility. Grandfather asked me to voluntarily hand over the military power in my hands and then ask for a demotion. Now... General An and Marquis Yongying didn't bother me, so the emperor kicked me here to protect Imperial Concubine Xie."

"It's okay. Guarding the city gate is boring. This is good." Feng Qingchen knew that Zhai Dongming would not be happy to hand over the military power that he had finally obtained, but...

If he doesn't hand over the military power, and the emperor takes advantage of the situation, Zhai Dongming will be in trouble. The emperor is in a bad mood now.

No one knows what kind of crazy thing he will do.

"Grandpa also said so. Let me rest for a while. Things are not peaceful recently. If I get involved in the affairs of Prince Chun and Prince Luo, it will be more troublesome." Zhai Dongming said this in a very low voice.

"It's right to listen to your grandfather." Feng Qingchen nodded repeatedly to show his understanding.

The two of them talked for a few more words, and at the end Zhai Dongming apologized to Feng Qingchen for the matter of Yongying Hou. It was he who asked Wang Jinling to ask Feng Qingchen to save people, but in the end... Yongying Hou gave Feng Qingchen a cold look, which made Zhai Dongming very embarrassed.

"Don't take it to heart. I know you mean well." Feng Qingchen was not angry at all. Zhai Dongming was too honest a child. He was kind to others sincerely, but that didn't mean others would believe he was sincere.

"Grandpa said that I meant well but did something bad. Now the Yongying Marquis and his wife regret it so much that they say every day that they killed their son." Indeed, if Feng Qingchen had not gone to the Yongying Marquis's mansion, the Yongying Marquis would not have known that his son could still be saved, and he would not have been so miserable.

Once, there was a chance to save their son, but they did not cherish it. After losing it, they can only live in regret forever.

"Alas...it has already happened. There is no point thinking about it anymore. Given the condition of Marquis Yongying's son, even if they agree to let me save him, I can't guarantee that he can be saved." Feng Qingchen knew that Marquis Yongying would not listen to her if she said this now, but she was not a saint, so there was no need for her to care about Marquis Yongying.

"Okay, let's not talk about this. If Imperial Concubine Xie knew that we mentioned the death of Prince Yongying before the Eighth Prince had surgery, she would be unhappy." Zhai Dongming felt depressed and was even more reluctant to mention this silent matter.

Feng Qingchen nodded: "No more talking, busy yourself, I'll go and prepare with Sixing, there's still a lot of work to do tomorrow. In addition, Sixing has found a few children with the same symptoms as the Eighth Prince these days. Although they are a little older, they can still be treated. I'll trouble you to keep an eye on them when the time comes. I want to set aside a yard to treat those children."

Sun Sixing is an extremely kind-hearted child. Upon learning that children with cleft lip can be cured, he has been visiting and asking questions frequently during this period, trying to persuade the parents of those children so that those children can receive treatment. Of course... it's all free!

"No problem, just don't make a big fuss. After all, if the emperor gets to his ears about this, he will be unhappy." The emperor has been in a very bad mood recently, and Zhai Dongming was scared just thinking about it.

"Don't worry, I've talked to Imperial Noble Consort Xie, and she agreed, saying that she was praying for the Eighth Prince." Otherwise, Feng Qingchen wouldn't have arranged people at this time.

Now Zhai Dongming said nothing, and the two of them left. Zhai Dongming inspected everywhere and found that the security work in Feng Mansion was done very well, so he was slightly relieved.

If something happened to Imperial Noble Consort Xie and the Eighth Prince here, he would be in trouble.

Chun Hui, Qiu Hua, Xia Wan and Dong Qing were serving Imperial Noble Concubine Xie. The others were fine, but the two strange maids beside Imperial Noble Concubine Xie were shocked when they saw Xia Wan, as if they had seen a ghost. Although it was only for a moment, they were still caught by Imperial Noble Concubine Xie.

Imperial Concubine Xie knew that the two maids arranged by the Emperor for her came to Feng Mansion for a purpose, but she could not refuse. She could only secretly remind Feng Qingchen to be careful. Fortunately, Feng Qingchen was smart and did not talk much to her after seeing the two maids.

Now that she had discovered this situation, Imperial Concubine Xie dared not take it lightly. She did not want to cause trouble to Feng Qingchen because of her arrival. Imperial Concubine Xie secretly thought about how to remind Feng Qingchen in a subtle way and let her be careful of the people around her...
