"This is the Yang family of Yangliu Village in Anping County," Prince Ning replied with excitement, "Eldest Imperial Brother suddenly fell into a coma, and the Imperial Physicians are at their wits' end. Momo persuaded the Emperor to send you to the Yang family."

Grand Prince looked at Long Xuanmo, "The little girl's family that Momo spoke of?"

Noticing the teasing gaze of Imperial Uncle, a hint of red graced Long Xuanmo's handsome face. Fortunately, he was facing away from the crowd, and aside from Grand Prince and Prince Ning, no one saw it. He took a deep breath in secret, waiting for the blush to fade, then stepped aside and pointed to Yang Mengchen at his side, addressing the Grand Prince, "Imperial Uncle, this is Ah Jiu."

"The commoner greets Grand Prince," said Yang Mengchen, bowing respectfully.

Grand Prince smiled and said, "Good child, there's no need for formalities." No wonder Momo was so animated when talking about the little girl, she truly is quite exceptional. Then he glanced at his nephew, You indeed have good taste!

Understanding the meaning behind Grand Prince's look, joy swelled in Long Xuanmo's heart, but now was not the time to discuss this. He relayed what Yang Mengchen had said to the Grand Prince.

After pondering for a moment, Grand Prince addressed Yang Mengchen, "Little girl, go ahead and be bold in your actions, no matter the result, it has nothing to do with you or the Yang family. Momo, take the jade pendant from my waist and give it to the girl." Even if there was just a one in ten thousand chance, he was willing to take the gamble.

Long Xuanmo quietly breathed a sigh of relief that Imperial Uncle trusted Ah Jiu, and he removed the jade pendant from Grand Prince's waist, as well as his own, and handed them to Yang Mengchen, "Ah Jiu, with Imperial Uncle's and my jade pendants, even if there really is an accident, Father Emperor will not make things difficult for you and your family."

"This is mine, make sure to keep it safe, little girl. With the protection of our three grand mansions, no one will dare to trouble you," Prince Ning also gave his jade pendant, a symbol of his identity, to Yang Mengchen.

"Rest assured, Grand Prince, the commoner will do her utmost," said Yang Mengchen solemnly as she placed the three jade pendants into her bag, "Bai He, go fetch the snacks. Lv Luo, inform Wu Tong and Hong Ling to bring the medicine soup. Mu Jin and Shan Cha, prepare the work clothes and instruments. Hai Tang, check the blood. Shao Yao, support Sister Jin outside and make sure no one is allowed in.

Both princes, Doctor Yao and that physician (the young physician), stay behind, everyone else leave."

Doctor Yao and the physician whose name was called could barely contain their excitement; such a rare opportunity to learn, and they were determined to pay close attention.

The other Imperial Physicians, however, were frustrated and humiliated, but a cold glare from Long Xuanmo sent shivers down their spines, and they had no choice but to leave the medicine hut dejectedly.

After having some snacks, Yang Mengchen instructed Bai He and Mu Jin, as well as Wu Tong, to leave since Hai Tang, Shan Cha, Hong Ling, and Lv Luo had all seen blood before and wouldn't be too frightened by what was to come.

Seeing Shan Cha feed Grand Prince a bowl of medicinal soup, and not long after, Grand Prince lay motionless as if asleep, Doctor Luo curiously asked, "Little girl, what did you give Grand Prince to drink?"

"A kind of anesthetic," Yang Mengchen replied while putting on her work clothes, "The surgery will take a long time, and this will allow Grand Prince to last until the end without feeling pain. I'll tell Uncle Luo the formula later.

I will lead the surgery, Uncle Luo, Seventh Brother, and Hai Tang will assist, and no matter what the others see, they must not make a sound, or they will be fully responsible for any consequences!"

Everyone nodded in unison.

After testing, Long Xuanmo's blood was suitable for Grand Prince, and Hai Tang, following Yang Mengchen's instructions, extracted some and slowly infused it into Grand Prince through a simple IV setup.

Lv Luo shaved Grand Prince's head bald, Hong Ling set up the IV drip, and Shan Cha prepared the medical instruments.

Around the bed were four tall stands, each with a Luminous Pearl embedded at the top. Luo Jingrui had given Yang Mengchen one, and upon hearing this, Long Xuanmo sent her three more, which Yang Mengchen used as Shadowless Lamps.

Once all preparations were ready, Yang Mengchen used the Black Needle to seal the major acupoints on Grand Prince's body, then took the scalpel handed to her by Hai Tang and made an incision in Grand Prince's skull.

Doctor Luo and Yang Cheng'an clamped the blood vessels with forceps in time to prevent excessive bleeding. Since the incident with Situ Wenkai, Yang Mengchen had taught them some traumatic surgery, and they often practiced on rabbits, so their movements were very skilled.

Yang Mengchen wiped away the blood with a medicated cotton ball and indeed saw a tumor the size of a baby's fist. Although it was pressing on blood vessels and nerves, fortunately it had not grown on them.

First, Yang Mengchen controlled the tumor's blood supply with forceps, then she excised the entire tumor, sprinkled on her homemade wound medicine, and after a thorough check to ensure there were no more tumors, she used special sutures to reconnect the blood vessels and stitch the wound. Lastly, she dressed the wound with more wound medicine.

Doctor Yao and the young physician both turned pale, trembling slightly, not knowing whether they were shocked or excited.

Even Long Xuanmo, who was accustomed to the bloodiness of battlefields, and Prince Ning, who had personally executed many, could not help but pale at this moment.

Old Master Yang and the others came back after finishing their work. Having heard the situation from Madam Yang Zhou, none had the appetite for lunch. The men gathered outside the medicine room while the women, following Mu Jin's relay of Yang Mengchen's words, waited quietly in the Mengchen Courtyard living room.

Long Jingxi, who had come upon hearing the news, clutched Min Luozhan's hand tightly, her heart filled with anxiety and worry due to not knowing what was happening inside.

The Imperial Physicians, although annoyed at Yang Mengchen's audacity, had to obediently stay because their own property and lives were at stake, and with the Eldest Princess and prince consort present, they could only wait silently and pray for Grand Prince's safety. Unlike Yang family, who had the protection of three major Prince Mansions, they had none.

Mo Yun and other guards were on high alert, stationed around the medicine room.

Uncle Heng and Qiao Niangzi led the servants in their tasks, none panicking, because they firmly believed that Miss was a lucky star who could turn misfortune into fortune.

Zhou Changwu, the guard commander, aside from arranging surveillance on Mo Yun and the other guards, also ordered martial law be established around the household, with Elite Guards deployed.

As night fell and the full moon slowly rose, those outside felt each minute stretch as long as a year, and although Qiao Niangzi had the servants bring out food, no one felt like eating.

Long Jingxi, who was more than three months pregnant, finally ate something after persuasion from Sister Jin.

It was the end of the Hushi period (8 p.m.) when the surgery finally ended. Yang Mengchen removed the Black Needle from Grand Prince's body, took off her mask, and said to Prince Ning and Long Xuanmo, "The surgery was very successful, but we'll need to observe for three days."

"Thank you, young lady!" Prince Ning expressed his genuine gratitude to Yang Mengchen.

"I said I would give it my all." Yang Mengchen instructed Hai Tang and her three companions in a serious tone, "The four of you take turns watching here, and don't allow anyone to approach. Uncle Luo and Seventh Brother, go rest; I'm also a bit tired—" She collapsed to the ground before she could finish her sentence.
