Chapter 280: Chapter 281 Treatment Method

"Are you out of your mind?"

His words left Chu Nanli somewhat baffled.

How had she become entangled with Lin Fuying again?

"A woman like you will never surpass Yingying!"

Now, whenever Bai Wuheng saw Chu Nanli, he would be reminded of Lin Fuying’s frail state from a few days earlier.

Chu Nanli must have done something.

Otherwise, why would Yingying suddenly cause a fuss about seeking death?

But no matter how he asked, Yingying was unwilling to respond.

"If your brain is sick, go back and take more medicine, and don’t come out barking nonsense." Chu Nanli rolled her eyes at him, too lazy to bother with him further.

She didn’t even care about Ye Yunting, let alone Bai Wuheng.

Yet she was curious, Bai Wuheng was so fixated on Lin Fuying, always shielding her.

What would happen if one day he discovered Lin Fuying’s true nature?

People like Bai Wuheng, who abet tyranny, would eventually reap what they sow.

Bai Wuheng was infuriated by Chu Nanli’s indifferent attitude, but he hadn’t forgotten what was important.

He hurried to check the Emperor’s pulse before Chu Nanli could.

He did not forget to throw a provocative glance at Chu Nanli.

Chu Nanli ignored his childish antics, leaning against a pillar on the side and watched contentedly as Bai Wuheng embarrassed himself.

Just as expected, after the pulse diagnosis, Bai Wuheng’s face displayed a solemn expression.

According to the results, there was nothing significantly wrong with the Emperor’s health.

The reason for the fainting remained undeterminable.

The Imperial Medical Bureau had already tried several methods before their arrival, yet they had not managed to awake the Emperor.

Failing to discern the cause of the Emperor’s illness, Bai Wuheng could not help but feel defeated.

Catching a glimpse of Chu Nanli from the corner of his eye, he was unwilling to show his frustration.

He had no choice but to brave it out and said, "I’ve finished, now it’s your turn."

Chu Nanli was even too indifferent to kick him while he was down.

Her dismissive attitude only infuriated Bai Wuheng further.

Bai Wuheng stared intensely at her moves, he wanted to see what Chu Nanli could find out!

To his surprise, Chu Nanli did not take the pulse; she merely stepped forward to lift the Emperor’s eyelids for inspection, then she took no further action.

"You couldn’t possibly have failed to see anything, so you’re just feigning diligence, right?"

Bai Wuheng conveyed a look of disdain.

He always knew Chu Nanli’s medical skills were mediocre!

Previously, she must have been engaging in nothing more than attention-seeking tricks!

"Not only are you brainless, are you blind as well?"

Chu Nanli replied tersely, giving him a cold glance.

Present at the royal court, she naturally wouldn’t stoop to Bai Wuheng’s level of immaturity.

Bai Wuheng just wanted to retort when Chu Nanli, too lazy to bother with him any longer, simply walked away.

"What is the situation?"

The Empress Dowager asked Chu Nanli eagerly as soon as she saw her.

After all, the Emperor’s sudden fainting was highly suspicious.

If anything serious had happened to the Emperor, the entire Xia Kingdom would be thrown into chaos!

"Why not let the Imperial Physician Bai speak first?" Chu Nanli intentionally looked towards Bai Wuheng while feigning innocence.

Bai Wuheng had been outperforming just moments ago, hadn’t he?

She was eager to see what explanations he could come up with now.

Bai Wuheng’s expression stiffened; he hadn’t discerned anything, so what was there to say?

Because of Chu Nanli’s remark, all eyes were now focused on Bai Wuheng.

Zhuang Muyan enjoyed adding fuel to the fire, "Yes, didn’t Imperial Physician Bai just mention that he has made significant achievements in difficult and complicated diseases? How is it that he can’t say a word now?"

He had disliked Bai Wuheng for a long time.

As soon as he arrived, Bai Wuheng, without any reason, targeted his master.

His master, having good restraint, did not bother with such a petty person.

But he couldn’t swallow his anger!

"My results are similar to those of the other Imperial Physicians. The Emperor’s health has always been robust; perhaps this fainting spell was just a fluke."

With the Empress Dowager present, Bai Wuheng naturally didn’t dare to speak irresponsibly.

He repeated the results of his own examination, and indeed, they were exactly the same as the previous diagnosis by the Imperial Physician.

None could find the reason for the Emperor’s sudden fainting.

"However, I think that the Princess Consort probably didn’t find out anything just now, did she?"

"I am rather curious, from where did the Princess Consort learn some superficial medical skills of a Martial World Magician? Isn’t it apparent now?"

Bai Wuheng now, was just short of having the words ’contempt’ written on his face.

Watching Chu Nanli’s actions just now, he felt that she must be acting out of desperation.

"Those who study medicine value lineage the most; I haven’t heard of the Princess Consort studying medicine with anyone."

Bai Wuheng today, was determined to reveal Chu Nanli’s true colors in front of everyone.

Such a malicious woman, who repeatedly framed Yingying, even if she knew medical skills, her heart was definitely still vile!

"My master naturally..."

Zhuang Muyan instinctively wanted to rebut, but then he suddenly remembered that Chu Nanli had never mentioned who her master was.

"My master’s medical skills can be witnessed by everyone. Last time when smallpox appeared in the palace, if it weren’t for my master’s critical intervention, the smallpox would likely have spread outside the palace!"

"Smallpox isn’t a disease unique to this dynasty, who knows if she has misappropriated someone else’s method of treatment?"

Bai Wuheng sneered, as if he had caught hold of Chu Nanli’s weakness, and became more and more enthusiastic as he spoke.

"Why is the Princess Consort not speaking? Could it be, that she feels guilty?"

He knew that Chu Nanli suddenly displaying medical skills was suspicious in itself.

Previously, Yingying had told him that Chu Nanli was accustomed to putting on airs.

Despite her having proved several times before that she knew medical skills.

Yet Bai Wuheng still felt suspicious.

"Having or not having a mentor doesn’t seem to affect my ability to treat and save people, right?" Chu Nanli raised an eyebrow and looked over, her face calm and without the guilt Bai Wuheng spoke of.

Her words, however, Bai Wuheng took as an admission.

"So the Princess Consort admits that the medical skills she learned come from dubious origins? In that case, how dare the Princess Consort take the Emperor’s safety as a child’s play!"

Bai Wuheng was vehement in his assertions, as if he had truly grasped some concrete evidence.

Ye Yunting also frowned tightly, "Empress Grandmother, she indeed behaved somewhat outrageously this time. I will definitely discipline her strictly when I return."

He was still unaware that Chu Nanli had been summoned into the palace by the Empress Dowager.

He thought she had somehow learned of the Emperor’s incident and purposely came to the palace to show off.

The Empress Dowager was somewhat displeased, not because of Chu Nanli.

But because of her grandson!

That the Princess Consort was publicly accused and he did not know to protect her, but instead sided with an outsider.

Such foolishness!

The silence of the Empress Dowager only fuelled Bai Wuheng’s arrogance.

"The Princess Consort refuses to speak, could it be because she indeed lacks a proper mentor, or does she disdain that her master is of no renown?"

Bai Wuheng’s words were an outright accusation.

No matter which possibility Chu Nanli admitted, it would indeed provide fodder for gossip.
