Therefore, they conspired with Qi Zhen to pin the title of witch doctor on Mu Chenshuang, so that no matter what her identity was, Mu Chenshuang would definitely not be able to escape.
But she still managed to escape in the end.
"So, the person who cured the Empress Dowager back then was Mu Chenshuang? Could she be... a miraculous healer?"
Xiao Qingyu's eyes widened in disbelief. If Mu Chenshuang was a spiritual healer, then she could mobilize the Divine Healer Sect's influence in various countries. How could they possibly retaliate against her then?
Feng Anxue explained, "According to Qi Zhen, the Divine Physician Sect's spiritual healers are secretly trained from childhood and can only enter and leave the sect when they reach adulthood. How could Mu Chenshuang possibly be a spiritual healer?"
Hearing this, Xiao Qingyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "But if she weren't a spiritual healer, how could she have such amazing medical skills and be able to cure the Empress Dowager?"
This is indeed puzzling.
After an incense stick has burned.
Lu Hua reported, "Princess, Sect Leader Qi has left the palace. This is a letter that Sect Leader Qi sent to deliver to you."
Given the current situation, it is not easy for her and Qi Zhen to meet in the palace.
Feng Anxue reached out and took the envelope, opened it, took out the letter, and read the contents written on it: "Your Highness, Princess Weiyang's medical skills are definitely above my level. Whether she is related to the Divine Doctor Sect is still under consideration. It is probably impossible to use poison on Princess Weiyang. Your Highness must be cautious."
Qi Zhen's letter did not contain much further description. Since Mu Chenshuang was able to cure the Empress Dowager, she must have already suspected Qi Zhen.
If she finds any evidence, it will be extremely disadvantageous for her.
"Princess, what did Sect Master Qi say?" Xiao Qingyu asked in confusion.
Feng Anxue handed the letter to Xiao Qingyu. Xiao Qingyu looked at it and exclaimed in surprise, "Mu Chenshuang's medical skills are actually above those of Sect Leader Qi. Does that mean that everyone in the Divine Doctor Sect will have to be in awe of her?"
"Now it seems that Mu Chenshuang is far more than just a princess."
As Feng Anxue spoke, a cold glint appeared in her eyes, but there were indeed some things that couldn't be rushed at the moment.
The next day.
Mu Chenshuang went to Cining Palace to continue the detoxification treatment for the Empress Dowager, and now there was naturally nothing to hide.
"Your Majesty, you may feel unwell. Please bear with it."
The Empress Dowager didn't ask any more questions, she just nodded. She looked quite haggard. The Empress Dowager's health was already poor, and now that she was poisoned, her spirits were very low.
After the detoxification and hemostasis were completed, Granny Yun brought over the prepared medicine. After the Empress Dowager drank it, she coughed a few times, and Mu Chenshuang sat down beside her, stroking her back.
The Empress Dowager suddenly grasped Mu Chenshuang's hand and said, "I'm alright now."
Mu Chenshuang withdrew her hand, stood up, changed her position, and sat down facing the Empress Dowager.
"Alright, you can all go down now."
Afterwards, the palace maids and eunuchs left the hall, leaving only Mu Chenshuang.
"What message does Your Majesty the Empress Dowager wish to convey to me?" Mu Chenshuang asked.
"I never expected Shuang'er that your medical skills are so remarkable. Who did you learn them from?" the Empress Dowager asked directly.
Mu Chenshuang explained in a calm tone, "I studied with a wandering doctor in the border region before, and later I would read some medical books in my spare time."
According to the memories in her mind, the original owner spent two years with her mother in the border region. During that time, she was not with Lord Mu. Now that the original owner's mother has passed away, even if the Empress Dowager asks Lord Mu for confirmation, she can make a defense. Although these defenses will seem weak, she cannot reveal too much of her identity at the moment.
The Empress Dowager said with some doubt, "Is that so? This really surprises me. Shuang'er is not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also has such remarkable medical skills. She is truly a blessing to our Tianzhao Kingdom."
These words seemed to be hinting at something.
"Your Majesty is too kind; I am unworthy of such praise."
The Empress Dowager chuckled kindly twice, reaching out to hold Mu Chenshuang's hand. "Shuang'er is indeed modest. However, I have heard about what happened the other day. If something were to happen to me this time, and you were to bear the blame, I would not rest in peace even in death."
"The Empress Dowager is protected by gods and Buddhas, so naturally she will be fine."
The Empress Dowager's concern and high regard for her put some pressure on her.
