On the day of rebirth, I took my baby to find Jiuqiansui to recognize his relatives

The lights in Concubine De's bedroom were bright, and the arrival of a new life added a bit of vitality and hope to this ancient palace.

The little prince's cry was clear, foreshadowing the continuation of the royal bloodline.

Jiang Yanwan stood aside, looking at the little life sleeping peacefully in Concubine De's arms, with complex emotions surging in her heart.

Concubine De took her hand, her eyes full of sincerity: "Miss Yan Wan, you are not only my savior, but also my son's second parent. I want the little prince to recognize you as his godmother, and from now on you and I will be one family, how about it?"

Jiang Yanwan was stunned for a moment, then a trace of emotion flashed in her eyes: "Your Majesty is so kind to me, Yanwan has done nothing but hope to continue to protect you and the little prince."

Defei's proposal was soon approved by the emperor, and Jiang Yanwan was therefore granted higher honor and status.

In an instant, she became the most watched person in the palace.

A few days later, King Jin came to visit in person.

The Imperial Medical Service was heavily guarded inside and outside, and his arrival undoubtedly threw a stone into the calm waters.

"Yan Wan, congratulations on your promotion." Prince Jin smiled broadly, but there was an imperceptible sharpness in his words.

Jiang Yanwan returned the greeting, but she was a little more defensive in her heart: "Thank you, Your Highness Prince Jin. Yanwan is terrified."

King Jin looked around and asked casually, "I heard that Yan Wan is an excellent doctor. Not only is she proficient in pharmacology, but she also has her own unique skills. It is really admirable. However, I am curious, how did you learn such skills? I have never heard that you are proficient in pharmacology before."

Jiang Yanwan's heart tightened. She knew that the King of Jin must have some ulterior motive for asking this question, so she calmly replied, "The nurse has some knowledge of medicine, and it is just a personal interest. It cannot be said that she has any unique skills, but only knows a little bit of the basics."

Prince Jin chuckled, his eyes flickering: "Oh? Wet nurse? I didn't expect that old woman would actually..."

Having said this, King Jin suddenly stopped talking.

Jiang Yanwan's expression changed slightly, but she remained calm: "Prince Jin knows my wet nurse?"

King Jin looked at her meaningfully and smiled, "Just an old friend."

After a long silence, Jiang Yanwan hid her disgust and forced a smile.

"If Prince Jin has any clues, please let me know. This is very important to Yan Wan."

King Jin raised his eyebrows: "Of course, although our relationship as husband and wife is over, I will naturally help you. Don't worry, I just need time to verify it. If I find it, I will tell you as soon as possible."

Jiang Yanwan sneered in her heart. She knew that the other party was delaying, but she had no other choice at the moment and could only nod and accept it.

It was late at night and the moonlight was shining brightly into the quiet courtyard.

Carrying a medicine box, Jiang Yanwan hurriedly walked through the winding corridor and came to Wu Junyao's bedroom.

She was feeling both nervous and expectant, as the medicinal materials for this first course of treatment represented the culmination of her countless efforts.

"Brother Jun Yao, I'm Yan Wan." She called softly from outside the door.

The door opened slightly, and the flickering candlelight in the room revealed Wu Junyao's thin but resolute figure.

"Come in."

A man's cold voice sounded.

Jiang Yanwan walked into the room, placed the medicine box on the table, and said slowly: "I have prepared a new prescription. This is the medicine for the first course of treatment."

Wu Junyao said nothing more. He took the medicine bowl and drank it all in one gulp. The aroma of the medicine filled the air, carrying a hint of unusual scent.

After a moment, Wu Junyao's face began to turn red and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Jiang Yanwan felt nervous when she saw this, and she quickly stepped forward to support him: "How do you feel?"

Wu Junyao's breathing became rapid, and a trace of struggle flashed in his eyes: "Hot... so hot..."

Jiang Yanwan realized that the drug was too strong, and she secretly regretted it and hurriedly looked for an antidote.

However, at this moment, Wu Junyao suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist with such force that she could not break free.

"Yan Wan..." he whispered, his voice filled with unspeakable desire and pain.

"Sir, you have to hold on. I'll get the antidote right away!" She was extremely anxious and tried to calm his manic mood.

"No...don't go..." Wu Junyao's voice was almost hoarse.

His sanity seemed to be being eaten away bit by bit by the drug.

Just when Jiang Yanwan was in a dilemma, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the door.

Then, the servant's voice penetrated the night: "Governor?! What happened?"

As if she had grasped a life-saving straw, she quickly responded: "Come in quickly, the governor is ill!"

The door was pushed open, and the servant stepped in quickly, holding down Wu Junyao with his hands and feet, but he was like a trapped beast, running around in all directions, his eyes bloodshot.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Jiang Yanwan didn't care about anything else and just chopped his neck with a knife.

Only then did Wu Junyao fall down limply.

Jiang Yanwan took out the prepared medicine from the medicine box and carefully fed it to Wu Junyao.

As the medicine went down his throat, Wu Junyao's expression gradually calmed down and the feeling of heat slowly dissipated.

What followed was an overwhelming sense of sleepiness, and he slowly closed his eyes.

The next day, Wu Junyao woke up early.

In the morning light, a gentle blue came into view. It was Jiang Yanwan who was guarding the bed, with lingering worry in her eyes.

"Yan Wan?" His voice was still a little hoarse, but his consciousness was much clearer.

Jiang Yanwan looked up when she heard the voice, with a hint of surprise in her eyes: "You woke up? How do you feel?"

Wu Junyao tried to move his limbs and indeed felt that he had regained some strength.

"Thanks to you, I feel much better than before."

Thinking of yesterday, Jiang Yanwan touched her nose with a guilty conscience: "Sorry, the effect of the medicine last night was beyond my preset range, so I could only knock you out. Sorry for the offense."

But Wu Junyao didn't care. He just stood up and put on his outer robe.

"Come on, follow me to the palace."

"Now?" Jiang Yanwan was puzzled.

Wu Junyao didn't turn around, his back was broad and tall: "Well, I have a gift for you."

Although Jiang Yanwan had some doubts in her heart, she nodded and went with him.

The two walked through the winding palace alleys and finally stopped in front of a dark and damp dungeon.

The heavy iron door was opened, and a musty and damp smell rushed in. Jiang Yanwan frowned and followed Wu Junyao closely.

Deep in the cell, a ragged man with a bruised face was curled up on the ground. Hearing the noise, he raised his head with difficulty.

It turned out to be Doctor Zhang who used to work in Concubine De’s palace.

"Doctor Zhang?" Jiang Yanwan was surprised, but more confused.

Doctor Zhang's eyes were filled with fear the moment he saw Wu Junyao. He struggled to retreat, but there was nowhere to escape.

The air in the dungeon seemed to freeze, leaving only the heavy breathing of Doctor Zhang and the friction of the iron chains.

"Tell me, why do you want to replace the medicinal materials in Concubine De's palace?" Wu Junyao's voice was as cold as the wind, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, revealing unquestionable majesty.

Doctor Zhang was trembling, tears and snot streaming down his face, and he finally broke down: "It was... it was His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin. He said that I had worked hard in the Imperial Hospital for many years, but I had never had a decent position. It was a great shame and humiliation that Miss Jiang replaced me as soon as she came. I was bewitched, and he threatened me that if I didn't do it, he would exterminate my entire clan... I... I had no choice!"
