Chapter 118 The eldest prince is saved
"The miracle doctor is right in front of you." Shangguan Ziqi looked mysterious.
This made the eldest prince a little confused.
His eyes moved back and forth between the couple.
Yu Yuanzheng looked at him with a smile.
"Ziqi, don't tell me that my sister-in-law is a miracle doctor?" The eldest prince thought about it several times, and this was the only possibility that made sense.
Shangguan Ziqi glanced at Yu Yuanzheng before nodding.
"Oh my God. I'm so stupid. There are so many suspicious things, but I didn't even think about my brother's wife." The eldest prince finally realized.
Surprised again and again.
"Can you keep it a secret?" Shangguan Ziqi asked softly.
"This secret must be kept. You are so generous to tell me. This kindness will be remembered by this prince." The eldest prince was very straightforward.
He pushed his wheelchair to Shangguan Ziqi's side and shook his hand. Both of them held each other with all their strength.
This is not just a handshake, but a handshake for the future.
If the eldest prince could stand up, the entire court situation would change.
This concerns the entire country and people of Wei.
The handshake between the two represents their future cooperation and collaboration.
Yu Yuanzheng saw it, but still wanted to strike back.
"I haven't seen the patient yet, so don't get too excited. Maybe I can't cure him."
The two men then let go of their clasped hands.
"Then I'll trouble you, my sister-in-law, to see a doctor. I'll give you 12,000 taels of silver, not a penny less." The eldest prince bowed to Yu Yuanzheng.
"Haha, no problem, no problem. I just like money." Yu Yuanzheng laughed and acted like a money-grubber.
The atmosphere suddenly became relaxed.
"Tell me about your injuries at that time." Yu Yuanzheng began to ask questions.
"Three years ago, my father and I went to Yuntai Mountain to offer sacrifices to the heavens. On our way back, we encountered a large number of assassins. Prince Rong and Ziqi were also there.
To protect us, they led their men to fend off most of the enemies, but there were too many assassins, each one highly skilled in martial arts, determined to kill us father and son, and each one charged towards us fearlessly.
I had no choice but to retreat to the top of the mountain with my father and several palace guards.
As we passed a cliff, a dozen assassins suddenly rushed out from the side. My father and I both joined the fight. Just as Uncle Rong finished dealing with the assassins and arrived, the assassins, seeing the situation was hopeless, rushed directly at me, fearless, even though my sword had already pierced his chest, and he took me down the cliff with him.
The eldest prince could still vividly recall the fierce battle. Those Cang Run assassins were fearless, deploying hundreds of them at once. It was clear how much money they had invested.
"While falling, I flipped the assassin over, and the moment I landed, I pinned him down, so I saved my life, but I could never stand up again."
"Did you break your leg at that time?" Yu Yuanzheng asked after hearing this.
This shows how bloody the fight was at that time.
"Yes, but it was only my calf. The doctor reattached it immediately. I injured my waist. When I landed, my whole body was lying on my back on the assassin. After that, my waist always hurt and I couldn't stand up."
"Lie down on the couch and let me check you out." Yu Yuanzheng pushed him to the edge of the couch.
His condition was much more serious than that of Shangguanziqi. He could barely move and his legs were like decorations.
Shangguan Ziqi came over to help and finally got the man to lie down on the couch.
Without the advanced inspection equipment of later generations, we had to rely entirely on manual perception, which was a big problem.
However, Yu Yuanzheng had many years of work experience. Combined with his description, she had a rough guess in her mind.
Yu Yuanzheng pressed his spine from top to bottom, and pressed very hard.
"If it hurts, tell me."
Pressing one section at a time, when the fourth section on the waist was pressed, the eldest prince cried out in pain.
"Is this spot painful?"
"Yes, this place usually hurts, but not this much. It really hurts when you press it." The eldest prince answered truthfully.
Yu Yuanzheng continued pressing.
He pinched his leg bone again.
"The problem has been found. When you fell, your lumbar vertebrae must have been dislocated. The imperial physician failed to put it back in place properly, causing a severe herniation of the shoulder disc, which compressed the nerves in your lower limbs. This is why you can't control your lower limbs and can't walk.
This problem is a bit complicated and time-consuming to resolve. It won't be cured in a day or two, so you must be mentally prepared. I need to design a treatment plan. You must follow my instructions completely and not be afraid of hardship or fatigue. Your case has been going on for so long, three years already, that recovery will require immense perseverance.
Yu Yuanzheng told the test results.
"Can my sister-in-law really cure it?" The eldest prince was overjoyed.
"You have to cooperate."
"I will definitely cooperate." The emperor promised.
"Husband, in this case, let's find an excuse to go out and relax, and take the eldest prince with us. I will treat you two together." Yu Yuanzheng suggested.
"Okay, in three days, our new shop will open. After it opens, we will leave the city and go to one of Mother's farms. There are mountains, water, and paths there. It's a great environment, perfect for you to nurture your pregnancy."
"it is good."
The eldest prince left the palace with hope, but he didn't tell anyone. He had the same expression when he left as when he arrived.
Shangguan Ziqi was very busy for the next three days.
Yu Yuanzheng designed a traction bed and Chunlei found someone to make it.
On the third day, Shangguan Ziqi got up early in the morning and asked Yu Yuanzheng to wash and dress up.
After breakfast, I took her out.
After handing over the business of running the shop to Shangguan Ziqi, Yu Yuanzheng no longer cared about it. She only focused on researching the prescriptions, writing the instructions, and then teaching Ziyue and Jianghua how to make them.
The carriage stopped in front of a restaurant called Zui Xiang Lou.
"Why did you bring me here? Didn't we say that our shop will open today?" Yu Yuanzheng was very surprised.
"You'll know in a moment." Shangguan Ziqi kept the suspense.
"Young Master, Young Madam, please come in!" a waiter greeted them warmly.
When I arrived at a private room on the second floor called Drunken Beauty, I was surprised to find that the eldest prince, Prince Jing, Princess Lingxuan, the prime minister's eldest son Zhao Jinyu and his sister Zhao Zhirou were all there.
"Ziqi, you are too late. We arrived a long time ago and have already finished two pots of tea." Zhao Jinyu shouted as he saw the door being pushed open.
"My wife is pregnant and can't leave too hastily." Shangguan Ziqi just glanced at him and said in a calm voice.
This excuse is irrefutable.
What could Yu Yuanzheng do? She could only admit it: "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were waiting for us."
But her hand pinched Shangguan Ziqi's lower back hard.
But Shangguan Ziqi remained calm, as if he felt no pain.
"I don't think I invited you here, why do you all want to have my breakfast?" Shangguan Ziqi glanced at everyone.
"Brother Ziqi, we are here to give thanks to the miracle doctor." Zhao Zhirou replied in a soft voice.
"Yes, yes. Sister-in-law, I heard that you also invested in Brother Yuan's shares. I want to do the same. But since he left the palace, I haven't seen him again. I don't know where he is. Even my father and mother don't know." Princess Lingxuan was a little annoyed and pouted.
"This miracle doctor is really something. Why is he so mysterious? Many families in Beijing want to hire him, but his price is too high. Aren't doctors supposed to save lives and heal the wounded? But he uses his medical skills as a tool to make money." Zhao Zhirou complained a little unconvinced.
"Cough cough..." Shangguan Ziqi and the eldest prince coughed at the same time.
