Also, many thanks to everyone who bought coffee (*≧?≦*)
They originally wanted to invite Divine Healer Luo, but since he injured his leg and couldn't co, he recomnded his own disciple, Mu Ruxin.
So far, Mu Ruxin was the most skilled physician the Duke Estate could find, and the Second Mada could not afford to offend her.
As for this young master, he was brought by Mu Qingchen. Logically, Second Mada should also show him so respect, but since Mu Ruxin had a falling out with ‘him’, Second Mada had no choice but to reluctantly offend Mu Qingchen a little.
Second Mada apologized, saying, "Young Master Qingchen, thank you for bringing a physician for Lord Duke. Since Young Miss Mu is confident in treating Lord Duke, then we won't trouble this young brother anymore."
This was exactly what Mu Qingchen wanted.
Originally, they had just co here as a formality, and being rejected by Second Mada saved them from the risk of being exposed.
Mu Qingchen said, "It's regrettable that I couldn't be of help. I hope Lord Duke wakes up soon. Xiao—"
Before Mu Qingchen could finish his sentence, Gu Jiao had already placed the silver needle on the bedside table and turned to feel Lord Duke's pulse.
Seeing this, Mu Ruxin's eyes turned cold, "What are you doing?!"
She unceremoniously reached out to grab Gu Jiao. Gu Jiao's hand was right next to several silver needles, and if she pulled her like that, it would definitely displace the needles.
Gu Jiao turned around and gave her a slap!
With a crisp sound, Mu Ruxin was stunned!
It wasn’t just her, but Second Mada and the man were also dumbfounded!
How arrogant was that?
Mu Ruxin was furious, "You!"
"He told to do this." Gu Jiao imdiately shifted the bla to Mu Qingchen.
Mu Qingchen: "…!!"
Gu Jiao, feeling confident, declared, "Thanks to Young Master Qingchen's trust, he let treat Lord Duke. Whoever hinders from treating Lord Duke is going against Young Master Qingchen!"
Mu Qingchen couldn't help but twitch the corner of his lips.
Gu Jiao continued calmly, "Young Master Qingchen, rest assured, even if it weren't for the thousand taels of dical fees you promised , I would still do my best to treat Lord Duke."
Mu Qingchen once again felt a twitch at the corner of his mouth. He couldn't help but clench his fists and, through gritted teeth, muttered a few words, "You're overacting...
Gu Jiao turned to examine the Duke's pulse.
She didn't bring her little dicine chest for two reasons. First, she didn't fully trust these people and didn't want to expose the secret of her dicine chest too soon.
Second, these people didn't fully trust her, and if she did bring it, she didn't know how that man surnad Shao would have scrutinized it.
If she really needed to use the instrunts from her dicine chest, she would just co back tomorrow. She didn't believe that this Lord Shao would be watching her every day at the Duke Estate.
Gu Jiao's three fingers accurately rested on the Duke's wrist.
Mu Ruxin hated this person touching her patient, but seeing Mu Qingchen remain silent, she gritted her teeth and suppressed her anger.
She coldly snorted, "I've finally stabilized the Duke's condition. He should wake up in a few days. But now, you've found a half-baked physician to interfere with my treatnt. I'll say it bluntly, this greatly affects the effectiveness of my treatnt. If Lord Duke doesn't wake up, please don't bla !"
Second Mada hesitated, "This young brother..."
Gu Jiao ignored her, and after examining the pulse, she directly removed the silver needles.
Mu Ruxin's face sank to the extre.
Gu Jiao opened the Duke's eyelids again, saying, "Make way, you guys are blocking the light."
Mu Qingchen furrowed his brows but cooperatively stepped aside.
Second Mada didn't want to but couldn't afford to offend Mu Qingchen.
The man narrowed his eyes slightly, motioning to the side, then looked on with amusent, saying to Mu Ruxin, "Young Miss Mu, step aside and don't delay the treatnt by this renowned physician from the State of Zhao."
Mu Ruxin sneered, "I've never heard of any renowned physician from the State of Zhao!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she seed to realize sothing and paused briefly. But soon she shook her head.
It couldn't be. The physician who cured the plague on the border was a woman.
During Gu Jiao's examination of the Duke, she noticed a prominent scar on the back of his head. She suspected he had suffered a basal skull fracture, resulting in so degree of nerve or brain damage.
Gu Jiao asked, "Mada, do you rember if Lord Duke had any nasal or ear discharge after he was injured and fell into a coma?"
Second Mada was puzzled, "Discharge, what do you an?"
Gu Jiao explained, "It looks like a runny nose."
If there was cerebrospinal fluid leakage, it could be a sign of an open head injury.
But it had been three years, and even if there was a basal skull fracture, it would have healed by now.
Gu Jiao abandoned the topic and said, "Given Lord Duke's current condition, acupuncture and dication may not be very effective."
Mu Ruxin's face grew darker, "Then what do you suggest?"
Gu Jiao replied, "There aren't many good options for now. It might help if his family mbers talk to him more."
In dical terms, this was called family therapy.
In fact, there were also hyperbaric oxygen therapy and physical therapy, but those require certain equipnt and devices.
The probability of a person in a vegetative state waking up was very low, so even if all three therapies were used, success wasn’t guaranteed.
Mu Ruxin sneered, "You made such a big fuss, and I thought you really had so good thod, but it turns out to be nothing more than a trick to fool people!"
As she spoke, she turned to look at Mu Qingchen, "Young Master Qingchen, I don't an to offend you, but you may have been deceived by so scoundrels. Not every person from the lower states understands real dical skills."
Second Mada's expression didn't look good either.
If just talking could wake up Lord Duke, then wouldn't all their years of seeking dical help have been in vain?
"Didn't you say earlier in the carriage that you have an ancestral secret prescription? Specifically for treating unconsciousness?" Mu Qingchen gave Gu Jiao a aningful look.
It was indeed a prescription for treating unconsciousness or coma, but it wouldn't work for the Lord Duke, though it wouldn't cause any harm either.
"No." Gu Jiao didn't take the hint.
Mu Qingchen: "..."
Even Second Mada, who had been giving Mu Qingchen face, couldn't help but look cold now, "Young Master Qingchen, thank you for your trouble today. Your intentions toward Lord Duke are understood by the Duke Estate. However, in the future, please be more discerning and not easily trust anyone! Soone, escort our guest out!"
Mu Qingchen closed his eyes, suppressing the anger stirred up by Gu Jiao.
The man smiled, "Young Master Qingchen's intentions towards Lord Duke, I will report them to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Despite the turmoil in his heart, Mu Qingchen calmly said, "Xiao Liulang, let's go."
"Oh."
Gu Jiao and Mu Qingchen left.
Second Mada was extrely upset, wiping her forehead with her handkerchief, then turning to Mu Ruxin with a smile, "Young Miss Mu, I must apologize for the offense just now. We still entrust Lord Duke's illness to you——"
"Ah! Mada!"
A servant girl suddenly exclaid in the room.
Second Mada's face darkened, "What's with the shouting? Such lack of manners!"
The servant girl pointed at the bed, her eyes wide, "Lord Duke, he... his hand moved!"

PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR NEW PROJECT:
Description:
In the suspenseful supernatural novel “Records of Mortals,” Jiang Baiyan, once a solitary and impoverished youth, finds refuge in the Shi family of Chang’an due to his extraordinary bloodline. With his clear and captivating peach blossom eyes, this seemingly innocent young man conceals a fanatical and malevolent lunatic within. Destined to succumb to darkness amidst hardship and degradation, he becos a harbinger of chaos.
When Shi Dai suddenly transmigrates, she takes on the role of the Shi family’s young lady, the one who subjects him to countless trials, eventually leading to her demise.
The twist? She never got to finish reading the novel.
From what she knew of the plot, Jiang Baiyan was just a silent, timid, and often bullied pitiable character.
***
Jiang Baiyan had never encountered soone like Shi Dai.
After he had slaughtered all the evil creatures in the garden, the blood-stained young man, exuding a murderous aura, approached her step by step, his lips curling into a malicious smile, "Scared?"
Shi Dai responded, “You’re really amazing! I applaud you until I spin like a spiral and fly around the moon three hundred tis! And also——you have dimples when you smile!"
Jiang Baiyan: ...?
—
After seeing her at a lantern festival with another man, Jiang Baiyan lowered his eyes, his fingers twirling her hair. He said in a mocking and sinister tone, "The mansion in the western suburbs...if I hide you there, no one will find you, right?"
Shi Dai replied, "Does it co with als and lodging? Can I sleep in everyday? Oh, and your cooking is the best!"
Jiang Baiyan: ...?
—
Jiang Baiyan was supposed to dislike her, even hate her, but as their separation drew near, his eyes turned red and he grabbed her sleeve, pleading, "Don't abandon , alri—”
Shi Dai responded, "Alright, alright, I’ll only have you. Mwah."
Jiang Baiyan: ...?
He hasn't finished his lines yet though…
