Chapter 194: Skill Suspected

Seeing Gu Chaoyan’s nervous face, Zhou Huaijin could not help but smile. “Not a very huge deal. It is just that I know your family has several prescriptions that can cure disease. If you are able to cure the young master of the Wang Family, I would like you to heal Madame Jiang.”

“…”

“Madame Jiang has not been doing well these years. She has seen many imperial doctors and eaten tons of supplementary products. But she is not healing at all.”

When Madame Jiang was mentioned, Zhou Huaijin looked completely anxious.

Gu Chaoyan thought for a while.

It seemed that County Princess Anxi mentioned before that she thought that she was there to treat Madame Jiang… That was why Zhou Huaijin was treating her nicely. Gu Chaoyan did not think much about that, but now it seemed that it was all real.

As far as she remembered, the Queen had a surname of Jiang, so Madame Jiang must be Zhou Huaijin’s grandmother.

Gu Chaoyan nodded. “I need to check her first before knowing if the prescription will work.”

Zhou Huaijin nodded. He had considered that as an attempt. After all, he had no idea how many prescriptions Yan had with her and if she was able to cure Madame Jiang.

As he thought about this, he caressed Gu Chaoyan’s head and said with a consoling tone, “Let’s go and have a look at her. If the prescription does not work, it is fine too. Madame Jiang has been sick for years, and even the imperial doctors can not get her well. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself.”

Gu Chaoyan looked up at Zhou Huaijin.

Zhou Huaijin looked gentle and friendly. She just could not think of how the rumor was spread in the public that Lord Huai was cruel and ruthless, and that Lord Huai ordered the daughter of the minister to be killed without hesitation. This man she had been hanging out with was completely different from what the rumor said.

She thought of how Zhou Huaijin talked about cooperation at the beginning. What he needed was her medical skills, but he no longer mentioned that.

She forgot about that matter as well.

It seemed that it was because he did not want to give her too much pressure, thus he didn’t mention it at all. After all, people thought that she was skillful only because she had some secret prescriptions from her own family.

She clasped Zhou Huaijin’s hands and gave him a look of assurance. “Don’t worry, I can cure her.”

That was what she was very confident about. She was definitely going to cure the patients. After all, she got assistance from a space and the magical water, and that very important help. She had not checked Madame Jiang, but she was still sure that she would be able to cure her.

Zhou Huaijin nodded and said nothing more at the sight of her confident look.

***

The wagon headed towards the Jiang Mansion.

The Old Master of the Jiang Family used to be the Minister of Military who held the military power, but when the Queen got the position next to the throne, he handed over the military power and resided in a very isolated place in the capital city.

As they came to the Jiang Mansion Zhaoyan could not help but think that the Jiang Family was indeed keeping a low-profile at the sight of the red gate.

“Please come in.” Zhou Huaijin said.

Gu Chaoyan followed Zhou Huaijin and walked inside, passing by the wall.

There was a small patch of bamboo trees in front of the main house in the Jiang Mansion. As they walked to the end of the bamboo garden, they reached Madame Jiang’s room.

There were many people coming in and out, and the deeper they walked in, the stronger the smell of medicine got.

“Huaijin is here?” Madame Jiang’s friendly voice arose.

The imperial doctors in the room greeted him, as Zhou Huaijin told them to rise. He said straightforwardly, “Madame, this is Gu Chaoyan, the eldest girl of the Gu Family. She is here to check you.”

“No!” Madame Jiang had not said a thing when the imperial doctor in the room bellowed excitedly as if a huge enemy were here. “Madame Jiang is a noble lady who should not be checked by an unknown girl!”
