Chapter 379: The evil woman who used poison is not worthy of the imperial physician (Extra 1)
It's always been her
On this day, Chen Yanchuan was seeing patients in his own clinic when a patient walked in from outside.
"Doctor Chen, can you please take a look at what's happening on my face?" The patient was a woman dressed elegantly. She was wearing a veil when she entered the room and took it off when she reached the inner room.
Chen Yanchuan put down the book in his hand, frowned and looked at the woman in front of him, and said, "Miss, my clinic has doctors who specialize in this type of disease. I suggest you go see them."
The woman was adamant and refused to leave, even bringing up something she had heard before: "But I know that Doctor Chen was once an imperial physician, and he cured a noble lady in the palace of this kind of disease, and it didn't leave any traces."
Chen Yanchuan was shocked, but he remained calm on the surface. He said calmly: "Miss, I'm afraid you remembered it wrongly. Chen has never treated any noble in the palace."
The woman said anxiously, "How could that be? That noble lady is my family member. She said that you used a very special method to cure her illness without leaving any scars."
Chen Yanchuan frowned, secretly wondering about the woman's identity and purpose.
After thinking for a moment, he slowly said, "Miss, I don't know what you are talking about. Maybe someone misrepresented the news."
Seeing that Chen Yanchuan refused to admit it, the woman left in disappointment.
Chen Yanchuan looked at her departing back and couldn't help feeling a little worried.
At that time, the face of the palace woman first became red and swollen, then ulcerated, and later on, she developed a malignant ulcer.
Because his second uncle was involved in the treatment in the early stages, Chen Yanchuan often discussed the condition with Chen Lingyou.
However, after trying several prescriptions, there was no effect. He was at a loss as to what to do until Baili Yue, in order to relieve Chen Yanchuan's worries, disguised herself as his medicine boy and went with him into the palace to treat the empress.
In the end, Baili Yue really used the method of fighting poison with poison and successfully cured the woman in the palace.
After the incident, he once reprimanded Baili Yue seriously: "Xiaoyue, your method is effective, but this is in the palace, we must act with caution. If we are not careful, we may get killed."
After listening to Chen Yanchuan's words, Baili Yue indeed restrained himself in using poison.
Shaking his head, Chen Yanchuan couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Why do I think of her again? I am still so cheap. I don't cherish her when she is around, but I can't forget her after she is gone."
The clinic's business is slow today, with basically no customers.
After the afternoon, he saw that there were not many people around, so he decided to go home.
When I was passing through an alley that I often walked, someone suddenly put a sack in my hand. I felt a pain in my neck, and then I lost feeling.
When I woke up again, I was already in an unfamiliar room.
Chen Yanchuan was tied up and lying on the bed with a rag stuffed in his mouth.
It was obvious that someone was watching him at all times.
because
"Doctor Chen, we meet again!" The woman who had come to seek medical treatment pushed the door open and said, "I have no choice but to invite you here. I am the eldest daughter of my family and have been betrothed to a family that values appearance.
If the sore on my face cannot be cured, the family will lose face if I cancel the engagement, and my life will be ruined. Previously, I begged you repeatedly but you were unwilling to give in, so I would like to ask you to think about it carefully.
I believe that in a few days, you will give me a different answer. "
Chen Yanchuan has been a doctor for many years and has seen many powerful and wealthy families, but he has never been threatened like this before. He was a little confused for a moment.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, the woman thought he was unwilling and clenched her fists.
Although the maidservant beside her couldn't see her mistress's expression, she could understand her meaning from her body language and immediately advised her, "Doctor Chen, don't be stubborn. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. With my mistress's status, she will die if she is disfigured."
It's both a pity and a threat. After all, if she really doesn't have a good ending, Chen Yanchuan will naturally not have an easy time either.
"It's not that I don't want to." A man of insight is a wise man. At this point, Chen Yanchuan no longer had any intention of hiding anything. "I was not the one who treated the nobleman who had a sore back then. Young lady, you are very capable. You should know that I brought a medicine boy with me at that time."
The woman said suspiciously, "Are you kidding me? A medicine boy can cure a disease that even the imperial physician can't cure!"
"That's not an ordinary medicine boy. She is the daughter of Muyun Villa and is proficient in pharmacology." Chen Yanchuan gritted his teeth and finally admitted, "She is even much better than me in some aspects."
After hearing this, the woman believed it a little and immediately asked, "Where is she now?"
"She's dead!" Chen Yanchuan's eyes were somewhat sad. "She spent several years treating the 'plague', and... "
"You're kidding me!" The woman was furious. She was about to have Chen Yanchuan beaten up when she heard the maid beside her say, "Miss, don't worry. Since Muyun Villa is still there, there must be someone else who can cure you."
