Chapter 94: Chapter 96 Trapping a Big Victim Chapter 94: Chapter 96 Trapping a Big Victim The patient agreed to treatnt, and Qin Liuxi took the paper and pen and confidently wrote down several prescriptions, handing them to Qi Qian and explaining each one.
“For a dicine bath, this prescription includes so rare dicinal herbs, such as Rejuvenation Grass and Fla Flower, which you won’t find in ordinary herb shops. You’ll have to send soone to purchase them from Changsheng Hall. Although the prices at Changsheng Hall are high, the quality of their herbs is very well-preserved, and their dicinal efficacy remains strong. You should be able to get most of the ingredients for this prescription there.”
Qi Qian raised an eyebrow: “Changsheng Hall? If I rember correctly, a small bottle of their Jade Snow Skin can be worth tens of thousands of gold coins. Does Doctor Qin often patronize their business?”
Qin Liuxi calmly responded, “If it were an ordinary citizen seeking treatnt, I would prescribe herbs that can be found by the roadside or in the wild. But for the Princess Consort, given your esteed status and that money is no object for you, naturally the best should be used!”
Qi Qian: “!!!”
So he was being taken for a ride?
The Old Princess Consort and the others almost couldn’t help but laugh out loud. Dr. Qin really dared to say anything!
Qi Qian struggled to contain himself and finally couldn’t help asking, “Does Doctor Qin perhaps deeply believe in the principle of taking from the rich to aid the poor?”
“The Commandery Prince flatters ,” Qin Liuxi extended her hand. “If the Commandery Prince thinks it’s too expensive, then there’s no need to use it.”
Qi Qian, with a flick of his hand, dodged her hand, saying, “I will have soone prepare it imdiately. When shall we start the treatnt?”
Qin Liuxi considered for a mont, then said, “Get the ingredients ready first. Tonight, I will perform acupuncture on Her Highness to help you sleep more comfortably. We can wait for all the ingredients to co back before taking the dicine bath.”
Qi Qian nodded and said to the Old Princess Consort, “Then Grandmother, I’ll have soone prepare the ingredients first.”
“Go ahead, I’ll have a talk with Dr. Qin,” the Old Princess Consort waved her hand.
After Qi Qian left, Qin Liuxi put away the dicine pillow, washed her hands, took out the Golden Needle, and said, “I’ll give you an acupuncture first to help you release so air and make your trip to the privy easier.”
The Old Princess Consort was surprised, her old face slightly flushed, and her voice lowered, “You… you’ve diagnosed this too?”
Lately, her stomach was indeed uncomfortable, and she couldn’t relieve herself. She was thinking about asking an Imperial Physician to prescribe sothing.
Qin Liuxi proudly stated, “The Commandery Prince went to great lengths to have diagnose you, naturally, I have more than a little ability.”
The Old Princess Consort, with a smile, went to the bed as instructed, took off her overcoat, lay down, and watched as Qin Liuxi, with the Golden Needle in hand, lifted the clothes on her abdon. Without seeing how she moved, the needle was quickly and accurately inserted into the Tianshu Acupoint. Then, her knee was lifted, and a needle was inserted into the Zu San Li, Spleen Yu, and Qi Sea without her feeling any pain due to the speed of the process.
Seeing this, the Old Princess Consort felt sowhat reassured. Although Dr. Qin was young, her acupuncture skills were evidently far more miraculous than those of many imperial doctors she had seen. Smiling, she said, “Qian’er told your dical skills are exquisite, and it seems he did not deceive . I’ve also heard your Face Reading is incredibly accurate?”
While Qin Liuxi was twirling the Golden Needle to clear away the turbidity in her body, she looked up and chuckled, “Does Her Highness wish to consult for divination?”
The Old Princess Consort sighed, “With my fate, I don’t need divination to know it is tough. A Mage has also read my fortune, saying that I am soone who goes against others.”
“Your fate is indeed challenging as it afflicts your kin, but Your Highness seems very open-minded about it.”
“My fate is such, not of my choosing, stressing over it is just causing trouble for myself. Consider it my selfishness then, I just stay away from these children to avoid harming them,” the Old Princess Consort asked, “But disregarding other things, can you tell when I will be able to hold a great-grandchild?”
Qin Liuxi was silent for a mont, then aningfully said, “Your Highness has already held a great-grandchild, it’s just that… they did not survive childhood.”
