Mu Jingshan removed the silver needles and covered the little guy with a blanket: "It's nothing, he caught a cold. He'll be fine after taking the medicine, taking a nap, and sweating it out. Children this age can get fevers even if they stay at home all the time. Sometimes it's just because they're growing."
Xiao Yanchu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
“Yi’er was found at Wangyue Tower this time. What do you think he was doing at Wangyue Tower?” Mu Jingshan put the needle away.
Wangyuelou is the restaurant next to where Steward Zhang found Yi'er last time.
Could it be that Yi'er went to find that little girl?
"By the way, don't let Dr. Su's young age fool you. General Su's chronic illness has actually shown signs of improvement under her care. You really can't judge a book by its cover."
"Oh?" Xiao Yanchu became a little curious.
General Su's old ailment has been seen by almost every doctor in the capital, including those from the Imperial Hospital. However, everyone is using precious medicinal herbs to nourish the old man's body, and there is no better solution. Now, Mu Jingshan actually says that there are signs of improvement.
"Why don't you take Yi'er to see her? Maybe there's a new treatment method available," Mu Jingshan suggested.
He had been treating the young prince for many years, but Yi'er still refused to speak. Mu Jingshan had searched through countless medical books but had not found a better treatment method.
Perhaps if we let this little girl try, there might be a miracle. Even if it doesn't, it won't be any worse than it is now.
Xiao Yanchu looked at Yi'er, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
At this moment, Hu Qing walked in and whispered, "Your Highness, I have investigated. This Doctor Su also came to Juxianlou to participate in the consultation conference, but he was stopped by the waiter in charge of maintaining order outside Juxianlou."
Xiao Yanchu's gaze turned slightly cold: "Didn't I say that anyone with a medical certificate, regardless of age or gender, can participate in the consultation conference? It seems that my words have no effect here in Yanyang. You can handle this matter."
"Yes!" Hu Qing responded and left. He had been by the prince's side for many years and naturally knew that the prince was angry.
The waiter who had stopped Su Ruojin was annoyed that he had been busy for several days but hadn't even seen the Regent.
These past few days, he has been taking advantage of his power to enjoy the feeling of being high and mighty, like a superior person.
Whether it was doctors from all over the country who came to participate in the consultation conference, or officials or wealthy merchants who wanted to see the regent, they all had to get past him first. Everyone who saw him had to smile obsequiously, and some even secretly slipped him some food or silver.
This was something he, a mere waiter, had never experienced before. This feeling left him with endless aftertaste, and he wished the consultation conference could continue indefinitely.
Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. The consultation conference eventually came to an end, and the waiter, who had been a high-ranking gatekeeper, fell back to reality and became a waiter that anyone in the restaurant could order around.
This disparity made him very unhappy at the moment.
Who is Li Wangcai?
Just then, a voice rang out from the shop door.
The waiter instinctively adopted a haughty attitude: "Who is it? The consultation conference is over, you're late. Honestly, all you do is try to curry favor with the Regent, don't you even know your place?"
"Take him away!" Hu Qing gave the order, and several constables came over and took Li Wangcai into custody.
Li Wangcai had never seen anything like this before and panicked: "Sir, sir, what's going on? I'm a law-abiding citizen! I even helped the Regent maintain order at the medical consultation conference! Have you made a mistake?"
"You obstructed a licensed doctor from participating in the consultation conference, defying the Regent's orders. You're the one to be arrested! Take him away!"
"Your Honor, I'm innocent! Your Honor, I'm innocent! I've been loyal to the Regent! Your Honor, please investigate!" Li Wangcai was taken away amidst his wails.
Ultimately, Li Wangcai was sentenced to thirty strokes of the cane, after which he was thrown back into the restaurant.
Juxianlou naturally dared not use someone who had offended the Regent.
The restaurant owner immediately had the other staff members take Li Wangcai back to his home.
Su Ruojin was unaware that Li Wangcai had been punished with a cane for stopping her. She was now helplessly being held tightly by a little girl, whose snot and tears were almost covering her.
