Before she even reached Qu Li, tears began to roll down her face like beads falling from a broken string.
Qu Li wasn't very good at comforting people, so he could only pat her shoulder and silently give her comfort and courage.
"Seventh cousin, I wanted to ask you to help the Empress Dowager with her treatment, but I was afraid of causing you trouble, so I kept it to myself."
Hearing this, Xiao Qi's expression did not change. After all, he knew that Qu Li had saved Feng Yi on the street last time and helped Feng Yi treat his wounds.
The eldest prince and the second prince looked at Qu Li with complicated eyes.
Can treating a face be the same as treating a headache?
If Qu Li is really so powerful, why has his reputation been so bad for so many years?
Xiao Xian's face darkened. "Changle, what nonsense are you talking about? Even if you're worried about the Empress Dowager, you shouldn't rush into seeking medical help!"
He knew that Qu Li was a medical practitioner, but there were so many doctors in the Imperial Hospital who were older than her and had more experience than her, and none of them had developed a treatment method over the years. Could Qu Li still compare to those doctors and cure the Empress Dowager's headache?
Qu Li caught the disdain in his eyes and curled the corners of his mouth coldly.
If he hadn't cured Bai Ruowei before, perhaps Qu Li wouldn't have shown his medical skills. But now...
If the Empress Dowager's headache could be cured, could she then make a request to Emperor Kangdi and there would be no need to build a college, earn money, and build up confidence for herself?
"I can go and examine the Queen Mother, but I can't say for sure whether it can be cured."
Hearing this, Xiao Xian wished he could knock Qu Li unconscious and carry her away.
Changle was extremely excited. She held Qu Li's hand and wished she could send her to the Empress Dowager immediately so that she could treat her.
The other wrist was grabbed.
Qu Li stopped and turned his head to look, and fell into Xiao Xian's deep, dark eyes full of worry.
"Have you thought it through?"
"certainly!"
Just two words: firm and confident!
If she had not traveled through time with the space, she would not have dared to rely solely on Chinese medicine to diagnose the empress dowager's pulse. After all, she also cherished the head on her neck.
But since she came with the space, she must fight for it for herself!
Xiao Xian sneered.
Such an ignorant person who doesn't know her place and the importance of things deserves to hit her head against a wall soon!
Qu Li met his complex and mocking gaze, pried his fingers apart bit by bit, followed Changle, and walked into the inner hall without looking back.
Seeing the two of them, the queen couldn't help but frown.
"Changle County Lady, why did you bring her in?"
Changle said openly, "Empress, my seventh cousin is also a doctor, and she is very skilled. I want her to help the Empress Dowager as well. Maybe she can be of some use."
The queen sneered sarcastically and shook her head.
Qu Li didn't care at all about the queen's attitude towards him.
However, the Empress Dowager, who was in panic due to blindness, was not so calm.
She even forgot how gracefully Qu Li and Xiao Xian came forward to present her with birthday gifts. All that flashed through her mind was her face painted to look like a ghost, and she was found in dishevel in the side hall where Xiao Xian was changing clothes.
"I don't need her to diagnose my pulse!"
Emperor Kang couldn't bear to see the Queen Mother so emotional, so he turned his head and scolded her: "Get out!"
Changle wanted to defend Qu Li, her eyes red as she explained, "Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, Seventh Cousin is really amazing. She was the one who cured Ruo Wei's face!"
Kangdi's eyebrows moved slightly.
Now that the imperial physician is helpless, it’s not impossible to let Qu Li give it a try.
A hint of depth flashed in his eyes, which were always shrewd.
The Queen warned: "Your Majesty, you must not rush to seek medical help! Moreover, you must always take care of your mother's feelings."
Emperor Kang was in a dilemma and finally had to let Changle take Qu Li away first.
Since Xiao Xian entered the inner hall from Qu Li, he has been paying attention to the situation in the inner hall.
Seeing Qu Li being kicked out, the corners of his thin lips curled up in a sarcastic arc.
Qu Lihun didn't care and sat aside with a cold face.
Changle kept apologizing to her. Qu Li raised her eyes and said calmly, "Changle, it wasn't you who kicked me out. Why are you apologizing?"
"Seventh cousin, I'm too impatient!"
"No problem."
At worst, she could still follow her previous idea, taking one step at a time, steadily and steadily, and she would eventually be able to earn the confidence to divorce Xiao Xian!
Changle's mood improved a little.
In the inner hall, several imperial doctors took the patient's pulse and then communicated in low voices.
Kangdi kept a sullen face, waiting for them to come up with a plan.
"Your Majesty," Imperial Physician Tang knelt down. "We truly have no good solution. For now, we can only rely on acupuncture to see if we can restore the Empress Dowager's sight! As for the headache, we are truly helpless!"
Kangdi's chest was heaving, and the pair of eyes staring at him were as cold as the coldest days of winter.
Imperial Physician Tang didn't dare to breathe and lowered his head to the ground.
"Is there any danger?"
"Acupuncture is needed on several points on the Queen Mother's head, and any treatment comes with risks..."
Kangdi's face was so gloomy that ink could almost drip out of it. He could no longer control his emotions and angrily scolded: "What do I need you useless mediocre doctors for?"
The queen immediately stepped forward and patted his back to help him breathe.
The imperial doctors knelt down one after another, and the entire inner hall seemed to have lost all the air, becoming oppressive and cramped.
The Grand Princess couldn't bear to see so many people being punished. Moreover, if the imperial doctors were put under tremendous pressure, it would not be conducive to treating the empress dowager.
"Your Majesty, let's let the imperial physicians treat her first! As for the Queen Mother's headache, we can issue an imperial decree to find a renowned physician!"
Kangdi's face grew even darker.
Everyone said that the imperial physicians in the palace were the most skilled in medicine in the world, but he knew that most of the most skilled physicians in the world had already retired and would never enter the palace.
"Royal sister, if those truly capable doctors are truly willing to enter the palace, why would there be a need for an imperial decree?"
"Whatever, we should give it a try, right?"
She saw that Qu Li's eyes were clear and without the bright red rouge on her face, she looked pretty and charming.
At that time, even the imperial physician had no idea how to treat Bai Ruowei's face, but Qu Li cured Bai Ruowei simply.
Everyone is confused sometimes, but we can't just condemn them and let them live with their mistakes for the rest of their lives, right?
The eldest princess wanted to let Qu Li enter the palace as a traveling doctor to treat the empress dowager first, and then reveal his identity after the patient was cured.
Emperor Kang also felt a severe headache at this time. He pinched his eyebrows and said: "I will have someone draft the imperial edict!"
"Okay." said the eldest princess.
Seeing Emperor Kang and the Queen coming out, everyone stood up and prepared to salute.
Kangdi was extremely tired. He raised his hand and said, "No thanks! No need to stay here with us! Let's go!"
