Reborn from the bottom of the coffin, the miracle doctor and the ugly concubine fight against the wo

Not long after, Liu Mansion's servants brought Chu Zhao up, Liu Zongqian respectfully asked Chu Zhao to sit down, and led the couple through the door.

Liu Zongqian also heard a little bit about Princess Jingnan curing the head disease of the old lady of the palace for many years, but he was responsible for supervising the vassal king and really did not want to have personal contact with King Jingnan.

Now King Jingnan personally sent the princess over to see her old mother for medical treatment. Although he was well aware of her intentions, he couldn't keep her away anymore.

After a while, I stopped at Mrs. Liu's residence, and Liu Zongqian's wife came to greet her with her servants.

Mrs. Liu seemed to be a very filial daughter-in-law, her eyes were red from crying.

After the two met, Mrs. Liu asked her husband in a low voice: "Master, is this okay?"

"Whether it works or not, everyone is here, so we have to give it a try." Liu Zongqian sighed.

Mrs. Liu added: "We have seen many famous doctors in the city, and they all said that we should prepare for the funeral. Otherwise, let's stop tormenting the old man and let mother die peacefully..."

"Nonsense!" Liu Zongqian shouted angrily, "What are you talking about? My mother worked hard to raise me. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I can't give up!"

Mrs. Liu was scolded, bowed her head and said nothing.

Although the couple spoke very quietly, they were close enough that Chu Zhao listened to every word.

Chu Zhao suspected that they did it on purpose and looked at Murong Xiao calmly.

Murong Xiao was stunned for a moment, then miraculously understood what she meant, and said with a serious face: "Since Mrs. Liu does not trust my princess's medical skills, I will go back with my princess right now."

"No, no, no, the prince has misunderstood." Liu Zongqian hurriedly bowed and saluted to stop the two of them, "My wife is so anxious that she is dizzy. Please, for the sake of the patient, please don't take it personally."

Murong Xiao snorted and said to Chu Zhao: "For the sake of Mr. Liu's filial piety, the princess should go and show it to the old lady!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Liu Zongqian breathed a sigh of relief and respectfully led Chu Zhao to Mrs. Liu's bedroom.

Mrs. Liu followed after wiping her tears.

Chu Zhao entered the door and saw a group of people standing in front of Mrs. Liu's bed, including maids, grandmothers, and several doctors.

When those people heard the commotion, they looked over to her and saw that she was wearing a curtain hat and luxurious clothes, followed by the dignified King Jingnan who was embroidered with a gold python robe. They knew that she was the Princess Jingnan who had come back from the dead, and hurriedly knelt down. Salute both of them on the ground.

Chu Zhao didn't say much, and went straight to the bed and sat down. He first looked at Mrs. Liu's eyes, mouth and tongue, then put her wrist on her wrist to check her pulse, and asked several doctors about the cause and history of the disease.

Several doctors said that the old lady's coma was caused by a stroke. One of them, a doctor named Huang, was a regular doctor of the old lady Liu. He also told some of the old lady's past medical history.

Generally speaking, eating too well and moving too little are common symptoms among elderly ladies from wealthy families.

Mrs. Liu sobbed softly on the side: "My mother really likes meat, and she doesn't like to exercise much. I have tried to persuade her many times, but she always said that she suffered too much when she was young. Now that she is old, she just wants to enjoy... …”

"Madam, don't rush to a conclusion yet." After checking the pulse, Chu Zhao turned to look at her and said, "Eating more and exercising less may indeed induce a stroke, but your old lady is not a stroke."

"what?"

"Isn't it?"

"Why not?"

"The old lady obviously suffered a stroke."

Mrs. Liu and several doctors all looked surprised.

Liu Zongqian couldn't help but have some doubts.

All the doctors said it was a stroke, but the princess said no. Does she really understand or pretend to understand?

"I dare to ask, from whom did the princess learn her medical skills?" Dr. Huang was the first to ask Chu Zhao.

Murong Xiao originally believed in Chu Zhao, but now he is not so sure.

But the purpose of his trip was to let Chu Zhao stay so that Liu Zongqian could accept his favor, so he naturally wanted to speak to Chu Zhao.

"Bold, the princess's medical skills were personally taught by the Immortal of Baiyun Temple. How can you allow a quack like you to question her."

He scolded Doctor Huang sternly and boasted about Chu Zhao.

"A few days ago, my mother suffered from a headache and was in excruciating pain. The princess stopped her pain with just one injection. I was at the scene at that time and watched the princess administer the acupuncture with my own eyes. You don't believe the princess, don't you even think of me? Don’t you believe what the king says?”

"The grassroots dare not!"

When the doctors saw that the prince was angry, they all knelt on the ground. They said they didn't dare, but they still didn't believe it in their hearts.

Chu Zhao glanced at everyone with an indifferent expression: "Whether you believe it or not, Mrs. Liu did not have a stroke, but was poisoned."

"Poisoned?"

Everyone was shocked and looked at her with wide eyes.

Liu Zongqian's expression changed even more, and he bowed and said: "Princess, please make it clear that my mother never goes out in the back house, and my wife personally takes care of my food and daily life. How could I be poisoned?"

"I have to ask your wife." Chu Zhao said calmly.

Mrs. Liu's expression changed and she knelt on the ground with a plop.

"Princess, life is at stake. You should be careful what you say. I have been married to my husband for 30 years. I take care of my mother-in-law's daily life every day. I never slack off in the morning and evening. My mother-in-law suddenly fell ill. Who can I compare to you? They are all anxious and worried, how can the princess put the blame on my wife without asking?"

"Yes, yes, Mrs. Liu's filial piety is obvious to all. The old lady clearly suffered a stroke. There is no need for the princess to jump to conclusions just to show her ability."

All the doctors couldn't stand it anymore, and they stood up for Mrs. Liu despite Murong Xiao's pressure.

Chu Zhao ignored these and looked at Mrs. Liu calmly.

"You never slacken off in the morning and dusk. You have to take care of your food and daily life. These 30 years must be very difficult, right?"

Mrs. Liu was stunned, a bit of resentment and grievance appeared on her no longer young face, and tears rolled down her face.

Chu Zhao added: "Actually, I can understand your mood. Your husband puts your mother's nurturing kindness first. No matter what grievances you suffer in front of your mother-in-law, he will not speak for you and even asks you to be accommodating. , and my mother-in-law also talks about her kindness in raising her, calling you here and there all day long. Outside, you are the wife of the chief envoy that everyone admires, but inside you live like a little girl..."

"Stop talking, princess, stop talking..."

Mrs. Liu lost control of her emotions, covering her face and crying bitterly.

Everyone was stunned.

With a dark face, Liu Zongqian asked the housekeeper to take everyone out, closed the door and said angrily to Mrs. Liu: "You poisonous woman, did you really poison your mother?"

"Master already called me a poisonous woman, why are you asking me what I'm doing?"

Mrs. Liu looked at him with tears in her eyes, and shouted regardless: "I married into your family when I was 15 years old, and spent 30 years as a slave. People say that it takes many years for a daughter-in-law to become a mother-in-law, but I survived." After all these years, I have grown old myself, but she still won’t die. I can’t stand it any longer. I really can’t stand it anymore. I can’t bear this day any more. Kill me, kill me…”

Liu Zongqian's face turned pale, his body swayed a few times, he sat slumped on the chair, put his head in his hands and murmured: "Why, why is this happening?"

Murong Xiao didn't understand why things developed like this, and looked at Chu Zhao in shock.

Chu Zhao's face was hidden under the veil, and he couldn't see clearly.

Until this moment, Murong Xiao realized belatedly that he seemed to have never really understood this woman.

Liu Zongqian finally regained his composure, lifted his robe and knelt down in front of the two of them.

"It's unfortunate that such a scandal happened to my family. I have no face to face the prince and princess. Since the princess has diagnosed that my mother has been poisoned, I wonder if the poison can be cured?"

"It can be solved." Chu Zhao looked at Madam Liu again, "You don't want the old lady's life, right?"

Mrs. Liu cried until her voice became hoarse and she said with tears: "Princess Mingjian, I am just fed up with my mother-in-law's making things difficult and nagging me, and I just want her to lie down quietly and stop talking, and stop bossing me around. I really don't want to Her life.”

"You, you vicious woman..."

Liu Zongqian was so angry that he was shaking with anger. He pointed at Mrs. Liu and wanted to curse again, but Chu Zhao stopped him in time.

"If Mr. Liu wants to scold you, you should scold yourself first. As the head of the family, if you hadn't turned a blind eye to the conflicts between your mother and your wife and blindly asked your wife to be patient and obedient, how could you have caused today's situation?"

"..." Liu Zongqian was stunned, then turned from anger to shame, his face turned red and he was speechless.

Finally someone understood Mrs. Liu's grievances, and she knelt on the ground and burst into tears.

Chu Zhao added: "It's inconvenient for me to interfere in Mr. Liu's family affairs. As for how you want to deal with it, wait until I detoxify the old lady."

"Yes, yes, all the lower officials listen to the princess." Liu Zongqian said with a blushing face.

Chu Zhao nodded and looked at Murong Xiao: "The prince went out and beat those doctors, told them to keep their mouths shut and stop talking nonsense, and also asked the doctor named Huang to come in and give me a hand."

Liu Zongqian was even more grateful when he saw her thoughtfulness.

Murong Xiao also came back to his senses at this moment, and without saying another word, he left together with Liu Zongqian and his wife.

After a while, Doctor Huang walked in carrying a medicine box.

"The villain has been ordered to come to assist the princess. Please give her instructions."

He bowed respectfully to Chu Zhao, and the previous contempt was no longer traceable.

Chu Zhao nodded and without saying much, asked him for a silver needle and began to give the old lady acupuncture. At the same time, he dictated the prescription and asked him to take a pen to record it.

Doctor Huang carefully considered the prescription and watched Chu Zhao's acupuncture technique. He no longer had any doubts about her medical skills and his attitude became more humble.

"The princess has such magical skills at such a young age. Even the miracle doctor Yun Jiuzhen can only do this again." He complimented half-heartedly.

"Yun Jiu Needle?" Chu Zhao's heart skipped a beat inexplicably, and he stopped and said, "Who is this person? Is he good at medical skills?"
