The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!-Chapter 1212 - 1208: Saving Xiao Qingyu’s Life

Chapter 1212: Chapter 1208: Saving Xiao Qingyu’s Life

“Sister Rong Sheng, I’m not worried that Chu Yifeng would hurt Rong Xi, at least for now it seems that he is very fond of Rong Xi. What concerns me is… do you really not plan to let Rong Xi know about her true origins?” Su Yingxue’s gaze wavered, uncertain whether she should tell Rong Sheng everything she had witnessed.

When she first met Rong Xi, she thought the child was like Chu Yifeng, possessing the same bloodline and therefore the same strange temper and personality.

But she noticed that Rong Xi acted very differently when she was with Rong Sheng compared to when with Chu Yifeng.

By Rong Sheng’s side, Rong Xi didn’t seem like a child, showing a maturity beyond her years that was even worrying.

Yet with Chu Yifeng, she was vulnerable, soft, clinging to Chu Yifeng and reluctant to let go. Seeing her dependence on him could stir emotions in anyone watching.

Rong Xi truly depended on Chu Yifeng.

...

And Chu Yifeng, to everyone’s surprise, treated her exceedingly well.

At least… after he accidentally hurt Rong Xi, Su Yingxue saw unmistakable guilt in his eyes, as well as a desire to make it up to Rong Xi with affection and indulgence.

Coldness spread in Rong Sheng’s eyes, “Impossible! I would never let Rong Xi turn out like him in my life!”

She could not raise another lunatic!

Rong Xi must stay by her side, to be raised by her!

“But Rong Xi is currently with Chu Yifeng, if you want to get her back…”

Su Yingxue didn’t continue; if Rong Sheng showed how much she cared for Rong Xi, it would certainly make Chu Yifeng suspicious of Rong Xi’s identity. Discovering the truth would be a mere trifle for him.

Rong Sheng knew this too, which is why she wasn’t in a hurry to go to Song Garden to take Rong Xi back.

She just prepared some herbs and made up a sachet, “Smell this when Rong Xi is restless at night; it will help her sleep more peacefully. You take it to her, Chu Yifeng won’t suspect anything.”

Su Yingxue, also a physician who had been treating Rong Xi, took the sachet, knowing Chu Yifeng wouldn’t notice anything off.

Seeing Rong Sheng so badly wounded and in need of rest herself, Su Yingxue asked if there was anything she could help with.

Rong Sheng did have a favor to ask, “Go check on Xiao Qingyu. His injuries are very severe, and I can’t operate on him anymore. You must save his life; otherwise, there will be one more innocent soul tormented by Chu Yifeng’s men.”

Su Yingxue nodded solemnly and immediately went to see Xiao Qingyu.

Rong Sheng had told her that it was Chu Yifeng who had inflicted the heavy injuries on Xiao Qingyu. After she regained consciousness, she quickly treated his wounds, temporarily saving his life. However, she was exhausted and could no longer continue treating Xiao Qingyu.

At Xiao Qingyu’s sickroom, Su Yingxue used Blood Clotting Grass along with various precious herbs from Medicine King Valley to make the best possible ointment. She reset his dislocated leg bones, but the most troublesome issue was his internal injury.

Chu Yifeng, that maniac, never cared whether his blows were fatal. Xiao Qingyu practiced internal techniques, but he was already poisoned and injured, compounded with old wounds. Adding new injuries to old, it was nearly costing him his life.

Seated by his bedside, Su Yingxue was troubled.

“Idiot! Aren’t you studying Acupuncture Technique? Why don’t you try using that?” Little Ginseng’s voice rang out in her mind.

Su Yingxue, who had delved into the depths of Medicine King Valley, grabbed Little Ginseng’s braided hair, “Do you think Acupuncture Technique is that easy to use? It’s something even my mother didn’t fully master. Although her letter records the Soul Capturing Acupuncture Technique, the sequence isn’t completely noted. Clearly, she never used it. If I hastily use it now and end up killing someone, what then?”

Little Ginseng rolled his eyes, “If you don’t use those needles on him now, does he not die?”

Su Yingxue: …

Why do you speak such harsh truths!

However difficult it was, she couldn’t avoid treating Xiao Qingyu. Even if he were to survive, it would be hard not to leave behind some sequelae given the current situation…

It was too hard!

All because of that madman, Chu Yifeng!

“Oh, with your intelligence, why care about that? Even though you and your mother are from different eras, haven’t you heard what Sister Rong Sheng said? The world is truly mysterious, with integrative medicine combining Eastern and Western approaches, and some diseases which can’t be cured by Western medicine yet are curable by Eastern medicine!”

Little Ginseng was seriously lecturing Su Yingxue with a steamed bun face.

After all she had been through, what else could surprise her?

To be human—ah, to be ginseng—required the bravery to create.

At worst, before Xiao Qingyu’s death, she would simply pluck a few more ginseng whiskers for him.

Under Little Ginseng’s persuasion, Su Yingxue almost believed in her own medical omnipotence.

She took out her mother’s letter that she had flipped through countless times, its edges worn, yet she still cherished and took great care of it.

At the last few pages, there was a set of acupuncture techniques her mother had researched called the Soul Capturing Acupuncture Technique. Yet her mother hadn’t finished the research. On the last page, there was an acupuncture diagram arranged in an intricate pattern, similar to the Bagua of the Five Elements. Laid out on the human body, it was bound to elicit a peculiar reaction.

Only… Su Yingxue had never tested it before.

As she looked at Xiao Qingyu, laying on the bed, his breath as thin as a thread, her eyebrows deeply furrowed.

Just at that moment, Xiao Qingyu woke up, his eyes filled with concern, “Empress, save Doctor Rong. She’s on the verge of death.”

He hated that he was no match for Chu Yifeng, not only failing to protect Rong Sheng, but also nearly losing his own life.

Su Yingxue comforted him, “Don’t get agitated. Sister Rong Sheng is fine, but you… don’t you feel that your life is hanging by a thread?”

Xiao Qingyu’s face was extremely pale, so ashen that apart from the redness in his eyes, no other color could be discerned.

But he had only one request, “I beg Your Majesty to inform my brother, and also… please take care of Doctor Rong.”

These were his only two requests.

“It’s not that bad… You can write your will first, but I will still try to save you.”

Su Yingxue opened her needle case and laid it out on the bed, revealing the custom-made silver needles of various sizes, each gleaming coldly.

Xiao Qingyu spoke through his pain, his voice hoarse, “If Your Majesty can save my life, I shall… repay Your Majesty for the rest of my life.”

“That’s all abstract. I just want to make it clear to you that I’ve never used this Acupuncture Technique before. It’s not entirely reliable, and if something goes wrong… I’ll remember your wishes and fulfill them for you,” said Su Yingxue as she picked up a needle, becoming exceptionally serious, her gaze fixed intently on the silver needles without a flicker of distraction.

Xiao Qingyu wrote a few sentences and placed them folded by his pillow. If Su Yingxue failed to cure him, he would request that she deliver it to Xiao Yu.

The only other person he was worried about was Rong Sheng.

Su Yingxue put his mind at ease, “Sister Rong Sheng is not as badly hurt as you, so rest easy.”

She was severely hurt, but ultimately, she would survive.

But as for Xiao Qingyu…
