The Sickly Regent Prince Who Was Abandoned as a Substitute Bride

Chapter 174 Unblocking Ye Chen's meridians.

He thought to himself in the dark, but on the surface he praised Dongfang Wan'er! He knew Dongfang Wan'er's intelligence and knew that her plan would definitely succeed.

He had great respect for Dongfang Wan'er and was willing to follow her orders.

"Haha, Dark Night, you're quite savvy. Take good care of Ye Jiuchen, I'll go discuss this with Doctor Dan!"

Dongfang Wan'er smiled and patted An Ye on the shoulder, then turned and left. Her steps were light and confident, as if everything was under her control.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Dark Night answered respectfully, knowing that his mission was important and that he had to protect his master's safety.

Dongfang Wan'er arrived at Doctor Dan's residence and explained her purpose: "Doctor Dan, I have a few questions I would like to ask you about the issue of qi deviation!"

The Divine Physician Dan smiled and said, "Please speak, Little Divine Physician Wanqing, feel free to ask any questions you may have."

Dongfang Wan'er laid out her doubts: "I'm still a little worried that he might suffer from long-term effects."

The divine physician Dan replied earnestly, "Don't worry, as long as you follow my treatment method, there will be no aftereffects."

Hearing this, Dongfang Wan'er felt a little relieved. She then asked, "When will we begin the treatment?"

After pondering for a moment, the divine physician Dan said, "Since the Crown Prince of Chu is willing to help, I will immediately begin preparing the medicinal herbs. However, there are a few rather special herbs, but fortunately, I have all of them!"

Dongfang Wan'er nodded in understanding. Then, she asked another question: "What if any unexpected situation occurs during the treatment?"

The divine physician Dan comforted him, saying, "Don't worry too much. If any unexpected situation arises, we have corresponding countermeasures."

Dongfang Wan'er finally felt relieved and said gratefully, "Thank you, Divine Doctor Dan."

The divine physician Dan smiled and said, "You're welcome. It's my honor to be able to help you."

Just then, the divine physician Dan suddenly remembered something and said, "Oh right, there's another herb called Seven Star Grass, which grows on cliffs and is extremely rare. But it has a unique effect on clearing the meridians. I remember I have this kind of medicine; let me go find it!"

Dongfang Wan'er frowned: "Can you find it?"

"No problem, don't worry!"

Then, the divine physician Dan began to carefully prepare the medicine!

"Little Divine Doctor Wanqing, wait for me a moment, I'll be done soon. There's no time like the present, let's clear Xiao Jiuzi's meridians today!" After saying that, Divine Doctor Dan hurriedly left.

“Okay!” Dongfang Wan’er nodded with a smile. She knew time was of the essence and hoped to help Ye Jiuchen recover his health as soon as possible.

Before long, Doctor Dan returned. His face radiated confidence and determination: "Let's go! Everything is ready!"

Without hesitation, Dongfang Wan'er stood up and walked towards the Regent's Palace with the Divine Physician Dan!

"Your Highness, Physician Dan, why are you back again?" An Ye looked at the two people who had suddenly appeared before him with a puzzled expression, feeling quite surprised. He felt that he had just seen the princess off not long ago, but he did not expect her to return so soon.

“Dark Night, I just discussed it with Doctor Dan, and he has prepared the necessary medicinal materials. We have decided to immediately begin clearing Ye Jiuchen’s meridians!” Dongfang Wan’er explained quickly.

An Ye quickly caught up with the two and asked with concern, "Your Highness, is there anything I can help you with?"

Dongfang Wan'er stopped and looked back at An Ye, saying firmly, "Go and bring the Crown Prince of Chu here."

Dark Night nodded without hesitation!

Dongfang Wan'er's expression was serious. This concerned Ye Jiuchen, and she had to be extremely vigilant! Because Ye Jiuchen's current condition was very unstable!

“Okay!” Dark Night agreed, then turned and went out to arrange the personnel.

Dongfang Wan'er continued to focus on Ye Jiuchen's treatment!

Just then, a commotion erupted from outside. "What are you doing? What are you doing? Why are you holding me captive? I can walk by myself!"

Chu Lian shouted loudly. Although he hadn't arrived yet, his voice came first.

Dongfang Wan'er was busy preparing for Ye Jiuchen when she heard Chu Lian's commotion and couldn't help but frown. She put down what she was doing and quickly walked to the door.

"Stop howling, come help me," she called to Chu Lian outside the door. Chu Lian immediately quieted down upon hearing Dongfang Wan'er's voice.

"Honestly, you guys should have said you were here on business. I thought you were... you know."

Chu Lian complained. He shrugged, signaling the guards holding him to let go. The guards released him.

Then, Dark Night also entered the room.

Chu Lian frowned and said, "I originally thought we would have to wait a few more days before starting, but I didn't expect the operation to begin so quickly. Here, I must declare in advance that my injuries have not fully healed, and I cannot exert all my internal energy to its full potential. If the final result does not meet your expectations, please do not blame me for not giving it my all!" He knew he had to clearly express his position to avoid Dongfang Wan'er misunderstanding that he had not given it his all.

The Divine Physician Dan smiled and said, "I was already prepared for this. Here, give it to him!"

Following his instructions, a servant carried a bowl of thick, dark medicine to Chu Lian.

The divine physician Dan explained, "Drinking this medicine will temporarily stimulate all the internal energy in your body, helping you to complete your mission better."

However, he did not mention the second half of the sentence because he had no good feelings towards the people of Chu, and even thought they were all evil people.

Chu Lian looked at the bowl of dark, murky liquid, his face showing doubt and wariness. He was worried that the medicine might have unknown side effects or aftereffects, and therefore hesitated whether to accept the offer.

Upon seeing this, the servant beside the Divine Physician Dan couldn't help but let out a cold snort, saying with a hint of disdain, "Hmph, don't underestimate the abilities of our Divine Physician Dan! How could the items he concocts possibly have too many side effects?"

He had full confidence in the medical skills of the divine physician Dan and firmly believed that Chu Lian's concerns were unnecessary.

"Really no side effects?" Chu Lian stared intently at the servant, trying to find a flaw in his eyes and expression. However, the servant's expression was firm and sincere, not at all like someone lying.

Chu Lian felt slightly doubtful, but decided to trust them this once. After all, this renowned doctor Dan was not likely to risk his reputation.

"Ahem, there's one thing, it's that you can get a good night's sleep!" Doctor Dan stroked his beard, his expression calm and his tone full of confidence.

Hearing this, Chu Lian breathed a sigh of relief. It was just a nap; it wasn't a big deal for him. As long as he could recover his internal energy, the price was worth it.

"Alright, I'll trust you this once!" Chu Lian took the medicine bowl and drank it all in one gulp without hesitation.

"Ah...it's so bitter! Don't you divine healers know how to make some medicine that tastes better?!"

Chu Lian frowned, a bitter taste still lingering in his mouth. But soon, he felt a warm current flowing through his body, and his previously exhausted body gradually regained its vitality, while his internal energy began to slowly recover.

Chu Lian was secretly astonished, never expecting the divine physicians of this Celestial Empire to be so skilled. This miraculous medicine not only rapidly restored internal energy but also seemed to have other unexpected effects.

If he could obtain such a medicine, it would be a tremendous help in improving his strength. Thinking of this, Chu Lian couldn't help but smile, secretly calculating how to acquire more of these precious medicines.

"Alright, now that you've taken your medicine, let's get down to business. I'll start acupuncture on Ye Jiuchen right away. As I insert each needle, you two should wrap the silver needle with your internal energy, understand?" Dongfang Wan'er said to An Ye and Chu Lian in a serious tone.

"Understood, Your Highness, rest assured!" An Ye replied respectfully.

Dongfang Wan'er nodded in satisfaction, but still glanced at Chu Lian with some unease. Although she trusted An Ye's abilities, she still harbored some doubts about Chu Lian.

"What are you looking at me for?" Chu Lian felt Dongfang Wan'er's gaze and said with dissatisfaction, "Since I promised you, I won't go back on my word. Besides, don't I still have the Gu worms you put in my body?"

Dongfang Wan'er nodded!

"Yes! Elder Dan, please keep a close eye on Ye Jiuchen's condition. If anything seems amiss, I'll stop the acupuncture immediately!" Dongfang Wan'er turned to Elder Dan beside her and said.

"Don't worry!" Elder Dan nodded and replied earnestly.
