The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!

Chapter 1400: Chapter 1395: Repairing the Devastation

“How do you know?” Su Yingxue’s doubtful eyes turned toward her.

She always felt that she had underestimated Chen Qingshui.

“I am also from the witch tribe,” Chen Qingshui said indifferently, her face showing no signs of disbelief in such an incredible matter.

She talked as if it had nothing to do with her.

“Then you…” Su Yingxue couldn’t see any sign of the witch tribe on her.

She wasn’t as beautiful as Chen Ruobai, nor as sharp as her.

It made her recall the time when she and Seventeen Nights had explored Long Guan City, she had indeed been able to drive corpse gu.

“The witch tribe is just an identity, I just want to be an ordinary person,”

Chen Qingshui added softly.

Her mother, too, was a witch tribe woman bullied by the old emperor, like Chen Ruobai, she came from a humble background. However, she didn’t possess the jealousy-inducing beauty or an outstanding mind, so she remained nameless in the palace of Ji Yun Country.

Until Chen Ruobai returned…

“Enough, wait for the emperor to deal with you.”

Considering the two of them remnants of the former dynasty, Chu Yihan had his plans for how to handle them.

When Su Yingxue thought about Chu Yihan coming to handle the two of them, she suddenly remembered that when she had detected something unusual and came running over, Chu Yihan hadn’t followed her.

He had ventured into the Blood Pool alone, could something have happened to him?

When Su Yingxue rushed back to Chu Yihan’s side, his lips were purple, and his face was blackened, clear signs of poisoning.

Su Yingxue immediately helped him lie down and took his pulse, feeling the poison chaotically spreading in his body, she used the Soul-Consuming Needle.

“Wow! You’re getting more proficient with the Soul-Consuming Needle!”

Little Ginseng exclaimed in surprise in her mind.

With eyes closed, Su Yingxue responded, “I’ve mastered it, quickly let me see his whole body’s meridians to check for any issues.”

Since gaining the ability from Little Ginseng, Su Yingxue had become more accurate in diagnosing, she closed her eyes, and Little Ginseng allowed her to see inside Chu Yihan’s body. Seeing his organs were normal and nothing unusual internally, Su Yingxue felt relieved.

“Wait, wait, wait…”

As Little Ginseng returned to her senses, its crisp voice suddenly became hurried, “There, in his brain, seems like there’s something, I can’t see clearly.”

“Let me see it again.” Su Yingxue planned to merge with Little Ginseng again in Medicine King Valley.

But the two of them couldn’t see clearly, the human brain’s structure was too complex, Su Yingxue couldn’t explain it.

“I just feel that something is off.”

Little Ginseng and Su Yingxue stared at each other.

Rubbing Little Ginseng’s head with two round, squeaky sounds, Su Yingxue asked, “What did you just see that was off?”

“I can’t quite say, it looked like something flowing… But isn’t everything inside the brain always flowing?”

After all, Su Yingxue’s lack of understanding of human anatomy showed that her journey of modern medical study was still long.

Su Yingxue felt slighted by Little Ginseng but understood the logic behind its reproach, “When I return, I must learn more from Sister Rong Sheng and continue reading mother’s letters.”

When Su Yingxue opened her eyes, Chu Yihan had already awakened. His complexion was slowly improving, suggesting the poison had been neutralized. He looked at Su Yingxue and asked, “Was it a Gu poison that afflicted me?”

Su Yingxue nodded, “Yes, but I used the Soul-Consuming Needle and examined your body again. I didn’t find anything unusual. You should be fine now. Do you feel any discomfort?”

Chu Yihan didn’t feel any discomfort. His focus, however, was drawn by Su Yingxue’s actions, “You examined my body? How did you do it?”

“Just like that!” Su Yingxue widened her eyes. Didn’t he know about Little Ginseng?

“You completed the examination without even removing my clothes?” Chu Yihan’s gaze was deep and meaningful, seemingly suggesting that she hadn’t fulfilled her full responsibilities as a physician.

“What are you thinking! Who said you have to undress for an examination? You wish…”

She certainly wouldn’t undress him!

What on earth was he thinking!

Su Yingxue blushed, and Chu Yihan embraced her from behind.

His chin rested in the crook of her neck, and his hot breath enveloped her, “After we return to Jiang Du City, you’ll have to give me a thorough examination – the kind that involves undressing.”

“Chu Yihan, you are the emperor, behave appropriately,” Su Yingxue’s ears burned with heat.

“I’m always proper.”

Proper, and yet you want to undress?

Su Yingxue didn’t believe him one bit!

Yet, she cherished the moment he held her.

The wait for victory had been too long and cost too much.

They stayed in Ji Yun Country for a month, first to reorganize the army and allow the soldiers to rest properly.

Secondly, since Chu Yihan had conquered both Lian Hai Kingdom and Ji Yun Country, he aimed to incorporate them into the Great Cheng Dynasty. He divided Lian Hai Kingdom, Ji Yun Country, and Qiongzhou City into three cities. He established a provincial governance system for these cities to unify their standards and measurements, with Zhuo Qing governing all three as the prefect, and Chen Qingshui as the military officer. They picked exceptional talents from the former dynasty officials to fill positions.

A month and a half had passed by when all these affairs were settled.

The three cities bore the brunt of the aftermath of war.

Tidying up and helping the city dwellers rebuild their homes would take a significant amount of time. They would never forget the continued disasters of these years, and comforting the public was a daunting task Zhuo Qing must undertake.

The night before Chu Yihan left Ji Yun Country, Zhuo Qing knelt before him and Su Yingxue, tearfully saying, “Zhuo Qing admits to having limited talent and knowledge. Following the princess led to grave mistakes. Now, I truly dare not bear this responsibility as the prefect. Your Majesty, please choose a more talented individual in Jiang Du City to replace me.”

“Limited talent and knowledge?” Chu Yihan held a collection of writings, “This is a collection of your writings I found in the palace. The essays within display remarkable talents, and your handwriting is meticulous, all written when you were merely twelve. Zhuo Qing, do you doubt your own abilities or my judgment?”

Zhuo Qing quickly bowed her head, “Your servant wouldn’t dare. These were merely the writings of my youth.”

Chu Yihan bringing them up now made her feel quite ashamed.

“Lord Zhuo, there’s no need for false modesty.” Su Yingxue helped her up, “The emperor appointed you as prefect not as a jest but genuinely recognizing your talents. Within Qiongzhou City, those soldiers and civilians serving you cannot all be fools, right? They listen to you because you speak logically and possess talent. Both your grandfather and father served as prime ministers, and from the General Manor where you married, both your sisters — one skilled with words, the other with martial capabilities — were educated by you. Why do you feel incapable of handling this important role?”

“Zhuo Qing just feels undeserving,” Zhuo Qing said with a self-deprecating smile, once believing that her ambitions were too great for her position, which made her join the princess and consequently make significant errors.
