The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Chapter 127 Threats, Detoxification, Leg Treatment and Marrying a New Princess

Doctor Wu tilted his head to look at Wu Mingwei beside him, his eyes serious and filled with a heavy warning.

Late last night, Doctor Wu was awakened by the noise in Chenxiang Courtyard. At that time, the two guards at the gate of Chenxiang Courtyard were talking to Wu Mingwei in the courtyard.

Doctor Wu got up in a hurry, rushed to the door of Wu Mingwei's room, and asked what had happened.

He was shocked to find that his daughter had run away without telling him.

He was furious. His daughter was so willful and impulsive that she ignored his advice and acted rashly for the sake of her lover's safety and to show off in front of her lover. If something went wrong, wouldn't all the efforts of the father and daughter be wasted?

Doctor Wu came out of his memories and whispered to Wu Mingwei, "Don't be impulsive again. Fortunately, the Night King did not doubt or blame us this time."

Both father and daughter sincerely wanted to save the prince, but they did not want Ye Xiaohan to doubt their sincerity because of their daughter's inappropriate way of expressing her love.

Wu Mingwei's delicate little face was cold and she lowered her head slightly, indicating that she remembered Doctor Wu's warning.

Doctor Wu felt relieved and looked at his guards who were busy working.

In about half a cup of tea, the bathtub was filled with hot water.

Doctor Wu instructed his personal guards to pour all the herbs that Ye Mansion had initially prepared into the medicine barrel, then stir it vigorously with a wooden stick, and finally cover it with the lid of the bathtub, so that the herbs could be more fully dissolved and exert their medicinal effects.

Doctor Wu looked at Ye Xiaohan and said respectfully: "Your Highness, the medicinal bath is ready, and I will give you acupuncture. You see, if the treatment is successful, then we..."

"Don't worry, Doctor Wu. I am not a man who does not keep his word. I will reward you handsomely." Ye Xiaohan's voice was flat, revealing a calm and composed aura, which made people feel at ease after hearing it.

Doctor Wu's eyebrows relaxed, and he asked carefully: "Your Majesty, my beloved daughter..."

Doctor Wu began to threaten secretly that the two things of detoxification and leg treatment must be related to marrying a new wife.

Ye Xiaohan looked at Doctor Wu and said calmly, "I understand." He did not refuse, nor did he agree. From the beginning to the end, he never said that he wanted to marry Wu Mingwei.

A look of loss flashed across Wei Song's eyes, but he quickly returned to normal.

Wei Bai opened his mouth slightly, not entirely sure what Ye Xiaohan meant. But his intuition told him that the prince would never be threatened, and he believed in the prince.

Doctor Wu thought his daughter's marriage was settled, so he felt relieved. The prince's words were like a reassurance, which made him no longer have to worry.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled.

Wu Mingwei, who was standing behind Doctor Wu, also slightly raised the corners of her mouth and glanced at Yun Mujiu, only to find that there was no emotion on Yun Mujiu's face, neither happy nor sad.

Doctor Wu took out a set of needle kits and said, "Your Highness, I have a unique acupuncture method that goes well with the Herb Bath. I need to personally perform acupuncture on your legs."

For the last medicinal bath, Doctor Wu chose to perform acupuncture himself. He did not read out the acupuncture points as usual, asking Yun Mujiu to remember them and then perform acupuncture on Ye Xiaohan.

Ye Xiaohan nodded in agreement: "Thank you."

When Doctor Wu heard this, a smile appeared at the corners of his eyes.

"Your Highness, the acupuncture points involved this time involve the head, neck, and legs. Please roll up your trouser legs to your knees."

Yun Mujiu didn't say anything and stood quietly aside. Ye Xiaohan was dissatisfied with her and should ask Wei Song or Wei Bai to help.

Wu Mingwei was a little excited and eager to try. Thinking of her father's warning, she could only suppress the emotion on her face and remained silent, which was rare.

Butler Zeng, Wei Song and Wei Bai were all stunned. The prince did not call for help, and the princess did not respond. Did he want them to take action?

Butler Zeng and Wei Song glanced at Wei Bai. Wei Bai received the glance and strode towards Ye Xiaohan.

"Your Majesty, can I help you lift up your trouser legs?"

Ye Xiaohan said coldly, "No need." He turned his head and looked at Yun Mujiu, "Yun Mujiu, come here."

Yun Mujiu sighed secretly. Ye Xiaohan clearly had a grudge against her, but he still asked her to help. Did he just treat her as a maid and order her around?

Yun Mujiu came to Ye Xiaohan's wheelchair and half squatted down. She gently took off Ye Xiaohan's boots and socks, and rolled up his trouser legs.

Ye Xiaohan lowered his eyes and took a glance at Yun Mujiu's drooping eyebrows, slightly pursed lips, and a hint of sadness on his face.

What’s going on? Is Yun Mujiu in a bad mood?

He didn't want anyone to touch him closely, so he called Yun Mujiu over. Yun Mujiu was still unhappy. Was she tired of touching him?

Ye Xiaohan's heart also sank.

After two breaths, he adjusted his mood. He had more important things to do - heal his legs, and now was not the time to be distracted.

Yun Mujiu stood up, without saying another word to Ye Xiaohan, and quietly stepped aside.

Doctor Wu skillfully picked up the golden needles and quickly inserted them into certain parts of Ye Xiaohan's head, neck, and legs.

After a while, Doctor Wu gently tapped the golden needle inserted into Ye Xiaohan's body, and then decisively pulled it out.

As all the golden needles were pulled out, sweat broke out on Ye Xiaohan's forehead, his sword-like brows were slightly wrinkled, and there was a look of forbearance in his eyes.

Doctor Wu said, "Your Majesty, the golden needles have taken effect. The key meridians in your body have been opened and unblocked. Now you can take off your clothes and take a medicinal bath. Let's leave first."

Doctor Wu asked the guards to remove the lid of the bathtub, and a thick mist of hot air instantly emerged from the tub, followed by a strong herbal fragrance.

Everyone else left the room temporarily, closing the door. Only Ye Xiaohan, Wei Song and Wei Bai were left in the room.

Wei Song and Wei Bai turned their backs to Ye Xiaohan. They knew that Ye Xiaohan didn't like others to help him take off his clothes.

Ye Xiaohan took off his clothes by himself. Wei Song and Wei Bai turned around and helped Ye Xiaohan sit in the bathtub.

The moment Ye Xiaohan sat in the bathtub, he frowned and took a breath of cold air, which showed the strong effect of the medicine. But he was very patient and there was no expression of pain on his face.

Wei Bai went to open the door, and as soon as Yun Mujiu and the others walked in, they were blinded by the fog.

Everyone stood near Ye Xiaohan's bathtub. The tall bathtub blocked Ye Xiaohan's body, and only the part above his neck could be seen.

The house was filled with fog, and I could only see things and people clearly from time to time.

Yun Mujiu looked straight over, and with just one glance, she could tell that Ye Xiaohan was enduring pain. She felt touched for no reason.

Although Wu Mingwei couldn't see Ye Xiaohan's body due to the high bathtub, her face still turned red and she didn't dare to look directly at Ye Xiaohan.

This was the first time that she was able to stay in the house while Ye Xiaohan took a medicinal bath.

The room was enclosed and the air was hot and stuffy, and everyone was waiting quietly.

After an incense stick of time, Doctor Wu walked to the table and took away the medicinal materials from two yellowwood boxes and two mahogany boxes, as well as his own wooden box.

He poured all the herbs in his hand into the tub, "Your Majesty, this is the second batch of herbs. Please be patient for a while, this round of medicinal bath will be more tiring."

Ye Xiaohan said in a low voice, "Hmm".
