Chapter 124 Full of Pain
"No need to be polite." Empress Sun raised her hand slightly and responded politely. Her voice was elegant and calm, showing the royal demeanor.
Ren Jingzhi and Shen Yiran put away their thoughts at this response. Their expressions instantly became focused, and they followed Empress Sun to Yu Gongxuan's bedroom.
Empress Sun personally led Shen Yiran to the bedside. Her expression was full of worry and expectation, and she said softly: "Princess, please help Xuan'er take a good look at what disease he is suffering from. The palace doctors are helpless, and I am really worried!"
After saying this, Empress Sun lowered her eyes slightly and a sigh escaped from her lips. That sigh seemed to carry a heavy burden, making people's hearts tighten.
Seeing Empress Sun like this, Shen Yiran's heart could not help but be moved. She thought to herself, "Although Empress Sun is not a kind person, she is undoubtedly a good mother. Look at her two useless sons, they really make her exhausted."
Shen Yiran's gaze lingered on Empress Sun for a moment, and a complex emotion surged in his heart, including emotion, pity, and a hint of understanding of being a parent.
Shen Yiran bowed slightly and responded solemnly: "Don't worry, Queen, I will do my best to treat the Third Prince."
After saying that, she turned her gaze to Yu Gongxuan lying on the bed, only to see that his face was as pale as paper, his brows were furrowed, and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat. It was obvious that he was suffering from great pain.
His originally handsome face was now filled with pain, and his lips had lost their former redness and were slightly chapped.
Shen Yiran gently stretched out her hand to feel Yu Gongxuan's pulse. The moment her fingers touched his pulse, she felt that it was disordered and weak.
After careful consideration, Shen Yiran thought to himself: This guy has had a hard time lately.
But on second thought, this is also a lesson for him, to see if he dares to bully the weak in the future.
Shen Yiran frowned slightly, pretending to be in trouble, and turned to Queen Sun and said, "Queen, I can cure the Third Prince's illness. However, my master's elixirs are all made from extremely precious materials, and the medicine is not cheap."
When Empress Sun heard that Shen Yiran wanted money for medicine again, she became angry and cursed inwardly, "Is this bitch trying to cheat her out of ten thousand taels of gold again?"
She was angry, but her son's life was in someone else's hands, so she suppressed her anger. When she calmed down a little, she asked, "How much does the medicine cost?"
Shen Yiran hesitated for a moment, stretched out five fingers, and said softly, "Five thousand taels of silver." When Empress Sun heard that it was five thousand taels, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
This was much less than the 10,000 taels of gold she had expected. She had thought that this bitch would ask for a lot, but she didn't expect it would only be 5,000 taels. The tension and resistance in Empress Sun's heart eased a little, and she felt more comfortable.
Then he readily agreed, "Okay, as long as Xuan'er can be cured, I will have someone prepare five thousand taels of silver."
Shen Yiran was surprised to see that Empress Sun readily agreed to the five thousand taels of silver. All the arguments she had prepared were useless in an instant. However, although she was happy in her heart, her face remained solemn.
Shen Yiran nodded slightly and said, "Don't worry, Queen, I will do my best."
Then, Shen Yiran continued to say to Queen Sun: "Queen, the Third Prince's illness is rather special. According to my diagnosis, in addition to taking the precious elixir made by my master, he also needs acupuncture to assist in treatment.
Moreover, when I am giving acupuncture, the presence of others will greatly affect me. If I am distracted for a moment, something could go wrong, and the consequences would be disastrous.”
After saying that, Shen Yiran turned his head slightly, nodded at Ren Jingzhi, and signaled him to go out as well.
When Ren Jingzhi saw Shen Yiran's action, he felt a little disappointed. His eyes dimmed instantly. In his opinion, Ranran never regarded him as her own.
They had been through so much, but at the critical moment, she still excluded him. Ren Jingzhi tightly grasped the armrest of the wheelchair, restraining his inner emotions, but still silently turned around and left the bedroom.
After hearing what Shen Yiran said, Empress Sun nodded slightly. She knew that this matter was of great importance and could not be taken lightly. So, she waved her hand decisively and said, "Everyone, leave."
After hearing the Queen's order, everyone left the room one after another. Ren Jingzhi was the last to leave. He slowly turned his wheelchair, turned around, and stared at Shen Yiran deeply, his eyes full of worry.
Shen Yiran understood instantly. She raised the corner of her mouth slightly and gave Ren Jingzhi a firm and reassuring look.
After everyone left the room, Shen Yiran solemnly lifted up Yu Gongxuan's right leg and began to look very carefully for the silver needle she had inserted that day. However, after searching carefully for a long time, she still couldn't find the needle hole.
Shen Yiran was full of doubts, frowning tightly, "That's impossible. Her silver needles are very different from ordinary silver needles. Once they are inserted into a person's body, the needle hole should be visible no matter how long it takes."
She fell into deep thought again, and the scene of shooting the silver needle at Yu Gongxuan that day reappeared in her mind.
Suddenly, Shen Yiran slapped himself hard on the forehead with a "slap".
Then, Shen Yiran quickly lifted up Yu Gongxuan's left trouser leg. She stared at Yu Gongxuan's left leg with a focused and nervous look.
Soon, she found the needle hole on her left thigh. Shen Yiran showed a look of relief, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, I remembered it wrongly before, and mistook my left leg for my right leg."
Shen Yiran pondered for a moment and decided to use the "acupuncture point removal" method to remove the silver needle. She stretched out her fingers and pressed several acupuncture points on Yu Gongxuan's legs accurately.
Each press required a lot of energy. Shen Yiran's forehead was soon covered with fine beads of sweat and her face turned slightly pale. But she was still fully focused and did not dare to slack off.
As the acupoints were continuously pressed, a magical scene appeared. The silver needle that had been inserted into the body actually began to emerge little by little.
A hint of joy flashed in Shen Yiran's eyes. She carefully observed the movement of the silver needle, ready to take it out at the right time.
When the silver needle came out long enough, Shen Yiran stretched out his hand without hesitation and pulled out the silver needle at an extremely fast speed.
At that moment, she seemed to hear the subtle sound of the silver needle separating from her skin. After pulling out the silver needle, Shen Yiran did not pause at all. She thought and took out the necessary items from the space.
She gently opened the bottle cap, and a faint smell of alcohol filled the air. Shen Yiran dipped a cotton ball in an appropriate amount of iodine and carefully disinfected the needle hole for the third prince.
When Shen Yiran finished all these, she gently put the iodine and the used cotton balls back into the space. At this time, she finally had time to raise her hand and gently wipe the fine beads of sweat on her forehead.
