Yingbao listened to Doctor Li recount the incident of the Crown Prince being poisoned, feeling disheartened.
She didn’t know whether she could leave or if she could see her mother.
But she was just a child, surely the Empress wouldn’t be cruel enough to harm an innocent child.
Engrossed in her doubts and fears, Yingbao, unable to resist her fatigue, fell asleep on top of her medicine box.
“Yingbao! Yingbao! Wake up quickly!”
Yingbao was roused from sleep by a nudge and saw Doctor Li and a few imperial physicians looking at her with joy.
As soon as he saw Yingbao awake, Doctor Li grasped her hand, “Do you have any more medicine? If so, hurry and take it out, the Crown Prince has woken up.”
Not only had he woken up, but he was also able to sit up and express hunger.
Yingbao rubbed her half-pressed face, blinked, and said, “No more, that medicine is precious and requires many precious ingredients to make.”
Yao Yuanzheng eagerly said, “Whatever ingredients you need, I’ll ask someone to bring them, or perhaps go to the Imperial Pharmacy, you can prepare it there.”
Yingbao nodded, “Yes, I’ll go to the Imperial Pharmacy.”
She glanced at Doctor Li’s expectant face and said, “I need two assistants, Grandpa Li is my master, he must accompany me, and Mr. Wen, I need to ask about the Crown Prince’s condition.”
Yao Yuanzheng frowned and said, “I will first report.”
This country doctor was a latecomer, there was no problem walking with the girl, but Wen Jingyan was a criminal, he couldn’t simply let people go.
Plus, without the imperial edict, even he couldn’t leave the East Palace.
Yingbao nodded and stepped towards the inner palace.
She wanted to see the Crown Prince’s condition firsthand, to help her decide on the correct treatment.
Once inside, She smelled a strong scent, it was cloud incense often used in the Imperial Palace.
This incense was mixed with a faint sour odor, like a person who hadn’t bathed in a long time.
As she reached the large bed, she saw a young girl standing by it, trembling from nervousness.
Yingbao looked at her for a moment, and asked, “What are you doing here?”
This young girl was Chen Tiantian. She was dressed in a palace maid-like outfit, holding a copper basin with warm water as if she was about to help the frail young man clean up.
As soon as Chen Tiantian saw Yingbao, her hand suddenly stopped trembling, and her frightened expression gradually faded. “Yingbao, it’s you, I, I was about to wash the Crown Prince’s face.”
Yingbao glanced at the young man still lying in bed and said, “Then, you do it. Hurry up, I need to check his pulse.”
Chen Tiantian unconsciously stepped back and whispered, “Then… you do your check first, and I will come back.”
Yingbao squinted and laughed, “No, the Crown Prince has stains all over his face. If they’re not wiped off, I can’t see his complexion clearly. This will affect the visual diagnosis.”
Chen Tiantian was holding the water basin but remained silent, as if she hadn’t heard.
“Hey, what are you doing standing there? Are you repulsed by the Crown Prince?” Yingbao said.
Did she think she wouldn’t notice? Chen Tiantian was not only disgusted with the young man right before her eyes, she was also terrified of him.
Because at this moment, the Crown Prince’s image was quite horrifying.
For Chen Tiantian, a little girl in her teens, the Crown Prince seemed like a skeleton lying in bed. How could any girl dare to clean such a figure?
When Chen Tiantian heard this, she immediately became flustered and said, “No, I wasn’t! I’m going to get ready to wash the Crown Prince right now.”
She rushed to put the copper basin on the stool, wrung out the towel and slowly walked towards the young man. As she gathered up her courage to wipe his face, the Crown Prince weakly blocked her with his arm.
“Get lost!” the young Crown Prince uttered in a low voice, revealing an unhidden chill in his eyes.
Chen Tiantian shivered with fear, the towel fell from her hand onto the foot of the bed.
Yingbao said, “So useless, you can’t even wash his face properly. Just step aside and let someone else do it.”
Then she beckoned to a palace attendant at the side, “You come here and clean the Crown Prince.”
The palace attendant didn’t dare to argue and came over with her head down. Once someone handed her a new towel, she carefully started washing the Crown Prince.
After the cleaning process, the palace attendant picked up the basin and left. Chen Tiantian followed suit.
Yingbao watched the entire process, not leaving even when she received countless glares from the prince.
She affirmed: “I am the doctor treating you, and you’re awake thanks to the divine medicine I prepared.”
The prince said nothing.
Yingbao sat on a low stool beside the bed to take his pulse. Ignoring the piercing stares behind her, she put a medicine pill into the prince’s mouth.
“This is the Vitality Nourishing Pill. If you take one daily, you won’t have any difficulties going hunting in the future.”
“Really?” The prince asks indifferently, “If I can’t hunt, would you be guilty of deceiving your king?”
Yingbao widened her eyes, “How can you blame me if you can’t hunt? I am a doctor, not responsible for teaching you how to hunt.”
The prince turned his head away and coughed lightly.
At this moment, Yao Yuanzheng approached and inspected the small bag hanging on Yingbao, “Yingbao, what did you just give to the prince?”
“Vitality Nourishing Pill.”
Before Yuanzheng could speak again, Yingbao said, “This is very precious, costing ten taels of silver each.”
“Ten taels each?” Yao Yuanzhen was taken aback, “So expensive? What precious ingredients are used?”
Yingbao: “Regrettably, I cannot tell. It’s a secret formula handed down from my family, and I won’t reveal it to outsiders.”
Yao Yuanzheng: ….
The young prince suddenly spoke up, “I’ll give you five hundred taels, give me fifty pills.”
“Really?” Yingbao’s face lit up immediately as she approached the prince, “Then you give me the silver now and I’ll get the pills for you.”
“Fine.” The prince turned his head to his secretary, “Go get the money.”
He glanced at the short little girl again, “Give her fifty taels of gold.”
Fifty taels of gold is equivalent to five hundred taels of silver, which is easier for the little girl to carry.
The secretary responded and bowed, then turned around to get the money, bringing back five shiny gold ingots.
Yingbao cheered once, ran to her medical box with the weighty gold ingots in hand.
She secretly took a bite and nearly broke her teeth.
Upon closer inspection, there were two shallow teeth marks on the gold ingot.
Hehe! It’s real gold.
In both her previous and current life, this was her first time earning so many gold ingots.
Turning her body to shield from others’ prying eyes, Yingbao took out two large porcelain bottles from her medical box, and put the gold ingots inside. Actually, she put them in her treasury.
After locking the medical box, Yingbao ran back to the inner room, and put the porcelain bottle into the prince’s hand, “Here you go, fifty Vitality Nourishing Pills, we’re all square now. Oh, wait, there’s also a bottle of emergency medicine, which costs one hundred taels of silver a bottle, you’ve used it.”
The prince coughed lightly a few times before signaling the secretary to go get more. He then finally closed his eyes, “I’m tired, you all may leave.”
“Okay.” Yao Yuanzheng and several other Imperial Physicians left.
Yingbao also followed them out, happily running to sit next to her medical box.
At this time, a palace maid came over, respectfully saying, “I have been ordered to invite little Physician Yingbao to rest in the side chamber.”
Yingbao looked at Yao Yuanzheng and Physician Li, asking, “What about my master?”
Palace maid: “All the doctors will take turns to rest. It’s late now, please go first.”
Yingbao pointed to her medical box and said: “This is heavy. I want to go with my master. He will help me to carry the medical box.”
She really didn’t dare to go to a side hall alone, especially when it was pitch black at night.
She would rather sleep in this main hall since guards keep watch here all night and the lights never go out.
