Doctor Tao said, "Your Majesty's broken leg has been healed a long time ago. His inability to stand up is due to poisoning. As long as the poison is cured, he will be able to walk as fast as flying in less than half a month."

This was not the first time Xie Jingyan heard what Dr. Tao said. His expression did not change at all. As long as he detoxified, he would be able to walk as normal, but detoxing was not easy.

Before seeing Xie Jingyan's legs turned black, Shen Wan had always thought that Xie Jingyan's inability to walk was due to his broken legs. She did not expect that it was due to poisoning. She asked Xie Jingyan, "When did you get poisoned?"

Xie Jingyan did not speak. It was not that he refused to tell Shen Wan, but that he did not know. Doctor Tao said, "It should be that he was poisoned when he was treating a broken leg. The poison was in the medicine and was led to the meridians of the leg." If it were put into other food, the poison would enter the lungs and the body would be dead."

Yun Qi didn't understand medical science, but he could tell from Doctor Tao's words that Xie Jingyan was unlucky but blessed with good fortune.

He asked, "Doctor Tao, is there any way to detoxify Prince Ling?"

Doctor Tao said, "I do have a way to detoxify, but two of them are extremely difficult to find. If we can't find them before he loses all feeling in his legs, it will be useless in the future."

Chen Feng asked hurriedly, "What kind of medicine is it? As long as it exists in this world, you can definitely find it."

Doctor Tao said, "Volcano lotus and snow snake gallbladder."

These two medicines are extraordinary just by hearing their names.

Snow lotuses grow near volcanoes, and snakes are afraid of the cold. It is extremely difficult to survive in cold places. Finding a living snake in the snow-capped mountains is probably as difficult as climbing to the sky.

After hearing what Doctor Tao said, Yun Qi quickly looked at Shen Yuan.

Aren't these two medicines that his cousin asked him to help find?

Yun Qi was confused, and Shen Wan shook her head at him.

Yun Qi could only suppress the doubts in his heart, but this scene happened to fall in Xie Jingyan's eyes, and his brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.

Chen Feng said, "I'll ask someone to find it right now."

He turned around and was about to give instructions, but Yun Qi stopped him and said, "No need to look for it."

Chen Feng stopped and looked back at Yun Qi.

Yun Qi turned around, and the steward behind him handed the brocade box to Yun Qi. Yun Qi took it and handed it to Dr. Tao.

Doctor Tao took the brocade box with doubts and opened it. He was startled for a moment, and then said with great joy, "This is Volcano Lotus."

Yun Qi said, "The snow snake gallbladder has already been identified. I will try my best to have it delivered to Prince Ling's Mansion within ten days."

His cousin asked him to find these two medicines, but they didn't say they were for King Ling's leg treatment. He didn't ask much. The cousin pointed out the general direction. He sent a message to the shop stewards in those two places and asked around. When I think about it, there really are some, but these two medicines are extraordinary just by the name. But things have prices, and the Yun family has nothing else but money.

Shen Wan said, "Thank you very much, cousin."

Yun Qi laughed, "Why are you so polite to my cousin?"

Shen Wan stopped being polite to him and asked, "What did Doctor Tao say about my grandmother's illness?"

Yun Qi said, "Doctor Tao came to Beijing to treat Prince Ling. I don't know if he is willing to treat my grandmother. I haven't told him yet."

Shen Wan asked Yun Qi to help find Dr. Tao for some time. In fact, he found someone very quickly, but Dr. Tao was unwilling to come to Beijing. The Yun family offered a high price. As a result, not only could they not hire Dr. Tao, but they also made Dr. Tao angry. He treated people. It's not about making money. If the Yun family wants someone who is unwell, they just send the patient to their door. If he can cure it, he will treat it. If he can't cure it, he won't be able to cure it no matter how much money he has to pay.

The steward of the Yun family was frowning, and when he was leaving, his attendant mentioned to King Ling that it would be impossible to send King Ling with a broken leg to such a far place for treatment. He didn't want Doctor Tao to hear it, so he immediately changed his mind. He went to Beijing with the steward of the Yun family.

This made it clear that Xie Jing Yanzhi had entered the capital for his leg. Yun Qi personally went to greet him outside the city. After receiving him, he brought him directly to Prince Ling's Mansion.

Shen Wan was surprised. In her previous life, Xie Jingyan's leg was cured by Doctor Tao. Doctor Tao also stayed in Prince Ling's Mansion as a palace doctor. She thought it would be easy to hire Doctor Tao, but she didn't expect that he would only give Xie Jingyan face.

Although Shen Yuan and Yun Qi spoke in a low voice, Xie Jingyan was nearby and heard clearly. He was even more surprised than Shen Yuan because he felt that Doctor Tao looked familiar at the first sight. He didn't like to guess. He asked directly, "Doctor Tao looks familiar to me. Have I met you before?"

Doctor Tao replied, "Not only has the prince met me, but the prince's biological mother, Concubine Chen, also had the grace to save my life."

Xie Jingyan is the prince, and Concubine Chen had almost never left the palace before the accident. It would not be easy to see them both at the same time, unless——

As soon as Shen Wan thought about it, Xie Jingyan asked, "Dr. Tao was once an imperial physician?"

Doctor Tao nodded. He had indeed been an imperial physician, but that was ten years ago. At that time, he had only been involved in a harem fight for a few months after entering the imperial hospital. If Concubine Chen had not helped him plead with the emperor, he would have been involved in a harem fight. He was dead a long time ago. He didn't like to live in fear in the palace, and he didn't like to take medicine. He put his own life first, so he resigned.

He is a person who always repays kindness. He thought that he would never have the chance to repay Concubine Chen's kindness to him for his survival. Unexpectedly, the Yun family came to him to cure King Ling's leg disease. He did not dare to repay the favor and hoped that it could be cured. After all, so many doctors at the imperial hospital couldn't cure Prince Ling's leg, but this should be his only chance to repay Concubine Chen's kindness, so he followed the Yun family to Beijing without hesitation.

Shen Wan did not expect that Dr. Tao's good relationship was forged by Concubine Chen for Xie Jingyan during her lifetime, and Xie Jingyan arranged for Dr. Tao to live in Prince Ling's Mansion.

Shen Wan looked at Dr. Tao and said, "Doctor Tao has superb medical skills, but my grandmother's chronic illness is difficult to cure. Can Dr. Tao take a look at it for my grandmother?"

How could Dr. Tao not agree to such a trivial matter?

Yun Qi took Doctor Tao to Yun's house. Shen Wan remembered what Supervisor Zhou had reported before returning home in the morning. Yun Qi was about to leave the palace gate, but Shen Wan still caught up with him and said, "Grandpa's close friends sent many gifts. Ling The king can’t return the gifts, so I’ll send someone to send those gifts to the Yun family later..."

Before Shen Wan could finish her words, she was interrupted by Yun Qi, "That's a gift for you and Prince Ling. How could you send it to the Yun family? If you really sent it, my grandfather would be angry because he felt that you and him were angry." We’re divided, this time Prince Ling helped my grandfather save face, and my grandfather’s close friends were still worried that the gifts he sent were too light.”

Yun Qi said nothing and refused to let Shen Wan send them to him. Shen Wan had no choice but to give up and came back and said to Xie Jingyan, "My cousin won't let you send those gifts to the Yun family."

Xie Jingyan didn't insist. The Yun family asked Doctor Tao to help him find antidote medicine. They owed him a lot of favors, and they didn't need the gifts. "If the Yun family needs me in the future, just tell me."

With this promise from him, my cousin's hard work these days has not been in vain.

Shen Wan happily pushed Xie Jingyan back to Mo Yuxuan.
