Chapter 3446: Not His Idea
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Master Chu, the imperial physician, was talking to Feng Wu about Bao Er.
Hearing the commotion outside at the same time, Feng Wu was speechless. Could the empress dowager stop causing trouble? Bao Er was her granddaughter.
“Master Chu, please go out and help the empress dowager,” said Feng Wu in resignation.
Master Chu said, “But Princess Bao Er…
Feng Wu smiled bitterly. “If you can calm the empress dowager down, that’ll be a great help to me. I’ll be here with Bao Er. You can come back when you’re done.”
The imperial physician knew what Her Majesty was like.
Everyone said that elderly people were like children, and Her Majesty was at that stage. She was like a spoiled child with a bad temper and was more arrogant than a princess. Master Chu felt helpless and cursed inwardly.
But since she was the empress dowager, and the empire valued filial piety, what else could he do?
Seeing Master Chu come out, Emperor Wu asked, “What’s going on inside?” Master Chu said, ‘Miss Feng Wu is checking Bao Er. She says there’s still hope.”
Emperor Wu heaved a sigh of relief. “Xiao Wu never brags. If she says there’s hope, then there is.”
The empress dowager almost jumped out of Emperor Wu’s arms.
Xiao Wu never liked to brag? Ha!
Emperor Wu said in a hurry, “Master Chu, take a look at the empress dowager.” Master Chu glanced at the empress dowager.
Apart from checking the pulse, one could actually tell if someone was really unconscious just by looking at their face.
If one was awake, one couldn’t stop their eyes from moving.
The empress dowager’s eyes had twitched when she heard what Emperor Wu said about Feng Wu. How could she really have fainted?
Master Chu took the empress dowager’s pulse.
As expected.
Master Chu thought of Feng Wu in the golden palace. Her face was pale, and he could tell at a glance that she had internal injuries and needed to rest. However, she had rushed over to save Bao Er, but the empress dowager… It was just ridiculous.
Master Chu was displeased.
Although he was only a physician, he could still find a way to teach the empress dowager a lesson. Master Chu had many tricks up his sleeve.
“The empress dowager was so excited that she sort of fainted. Don’t worry,
Your Majesty. She’ll be fine.”
“Sort of?” Emperor Wu’s eyebrows twitched.
The empress dowager almost jumped up and slapped Master Chu in the face! Even if he knew she was faking it, why didn’t he cover it up? What a useless man! She would replace him later!
Master Chu smiled bitterly and said, “I’m not saying Her Majesty is faking it, it’s just a relative term. It’s a symptom of… er… Well, she fainted, but she didn’t lose consciousness.”
Emperor Wu was confused. “Huh?”
Master Chu said, “Don’t worry, it’s very easy to treat. I’ll just stick this needle into her eye and stimulate her. She’ll be fine immediately.”
As he spoke, Master Chu asked the attendant to bring over his personal medicine box.
This move wasn’t really his own idea.
Not long ago, Her Majesty had acted the same way with Feng Wu. That girl took out a needle the length of her finger and said that she wanted to stab the bottom of the empress dowager’s foot. Immediately, the empress dowager’s head didn’t hurt anymore, and she could breathe normally.
Master Chu was just following suit.
He felt this method would work.
There was a long row of needles in the medicine box. They were arranged according to the length and thickness.
Master Chu chose the thickest needle.
It was almost like the needle that one used to sew the sole of a shoe.
“Ssss —”
The surrounding people gasped..
