The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 999 - 997: When All Doctors Are Helpless

The Empress Dowager let out a startled cry.

Even Empress Feng’s face changed dramatically.

The palace maids and nannies were in complete chaos.

"Imperial Physician!"

The Empress Dowager was helped to the side, and an elderly Imperial Physician, sweating profusely, quickly came forward to diagnose.

"Empress Dowager... there’s no major issue."

After a round of diagnosis, the elderly Imperial Physician murmured.

"Nonsense! Can’t you see the Empress Dowager has fainted, and yet you dare say there’s no major issue."

Empress Feng flared up in anger.

The Imperial Physician fell to the ground, kowtowing incessantly.

"Begging the Empress’s pardon, the Empress Dowager’s pulse shows no issues. I truly cannot discern the illness."

"Empress, Medical Officer Han is an old physician; he has always treated the Empress Dowager. Recently, the Empress Dowager has been unwell. After several examinations, indeed no illness could be discerned. Other Imperial Physicians have also examined; none could make sense of it. Today, despite feeling unwell, the Empress Dowager heard that the Third Prince was unwell and came despite my advice."

An elderly nanny beside them spoke.

She was an old servant by the Empress Dowager’s side, always clearly understanding her health.

"The Emperor has arrived."

Emperor Longteng rushed over upon hearing the news.

Emperor Longteng hurried forward to inquire about the Empress Dowager’s condition.

"Emperor, it’s not serious; it’s just an old ailment."

The Empress Dowager, given some water, slowly regained consciousness, sweating profusely.

"Mother, don’t worry. Someone, fetch all the senior Imperial Physicians from the Imperial Hospital. If they can’t discern the issue, send them all to the Heavenly Prison!"

Emperor Longteng commanded angrily.

"Your Majesty, don’t do this."

The Empress Dowager rose, wanting to stop Emperor Longteng, but another wave of pain nearly caused her to faint again.

All notable Imperial Physicians from the Imperial Hospital arrived, forming a line.

Each of them nervous, came forward to take the Empress Dowager’s pulse.

Yet, after several examinations, like Medical Officer Han, none could discern the issue.

"A bunch of useless people, take them away! Give them thirty lashes and imprison them in the Heavenly Prison."

Emperor Longteng’s face grew uglier.

The group of Imperial Physicians also knelt begging for mercy.

"Your Majesty, I, a humble girl, dare to offer to look at the Empress Dowager."

At this moment, a timid voice came from the side.

Both Emperor Longteng and the Empress Dowager on the bed looked over.

The speaker was Xin Lin.

"You?"

Emperor Longteng looked at Xin Lin, with skepticism in his eyes.

Heaven truly assists me!

Xin Lin was overjoyed in her heart.

These days, she had been troubled by the Heaven-defying Book’s daunting task. She was short of diagnosing two difficult cases.

With less than ten days remaining, unexpectedly, she encountered the sudden illness of the Empress Dowager.

All physicians were at a loss, wasn’t this indeed a difficult and rare disease!

"Xin Lin, this is no place for your antics. You, a mere apprentice from the Medical Hall, dare to behave so presumptuously. Take her away and wait until the Empress Dowager’s condition stabilizes; then I will order your questioning."

Empress Feng gave a light snort.

The group of Imperial Physicians also looked at Xin Lin with contempt.

"Well said."

"Where did this impudent girl come from, behaving so rudely."

They were all well-read, experienced physicians who had diagnosed countless patients, while she was just a mere apprentice from a Medical Hall, presuming to examine the Empress Dowager.

"Though I am not a renowned physician, I have studied my father’s Mystical Medicine Book, which contains numerous cases."

Xin Lin remained unflustered and spoke calmly.

Chu Tianyi was dead, so she was no longer afraid of anyone probing into the Mystical Medicine Book matter.

At the mention of "Mystical Medicine Book," as expected, the crowd was abuzz with astonishment.
