Reborn As Divine Doctor to Rule the World

Chapter 49: Chapter 50 What does this have to do with the scented sachet?

“I merely did what a doctor ought to do, but it was your bravery that broke through the psychological defense and gave you the chance to become a mother,”

Shao He gave her a slight smile. Although she had good medical skills, if the patient did not consent to treatment, she was helpless.

“No matter how you put it, it was you who cured Yijia. It was you who once again gave her the chance for happiness. Therefore, we’ve prepared a modest gift, and I urge Doctor Shao to please accept it.” Lady Jhiang sincerely liked Shao He and harbored utmost trust in her medical skills.

This time Shao He did not refuse, the corners of her mouth curving into a pleased smile, “Then I shall partake in a bit of Miss Jhiang’s good fortune.”

Lady Jhiang’s visit wasn’t just about presenting gifts, of course. She also wished for Doctor Shao’s help in examining her daughter’s pulse to ensure her safety, as she didn’t trust the medical skills of others anymore.

Shao He naturally did not refuse such a request.

Liang Weishuang came back to her senses from her surprise. The matter concerning Jhiang Yijia had already spread throughout the Capital City, and there had been people who said that Jhiang Yijia had fabricated the story of being cured in order to marry into the Fang Family.

Now it seemed those rumors might have been tainted with falsehood.

While Shao He was examining the pulse, Liang Weishuang took the opportunity to pull Lady Jhiang aside and asked, “Lady Jhiang, I would like to inquire about this Doctor Shao.”

Upon mentioning Shao He, Lady Jhiang spoke at length, from her initial disbelief to her ultimate firm trust, animatedly recounting the tale.

Liang Weishuang’s brows were deeply furrowed. From what Lady Jhiang had said, she surmised that she seemed not to be lying.

Turning her head to look at the one examining the pulse, she couldn’t help but secretly speculate, “Could it be that she truly possesses medical skills?”

Moreover, Lady Jhiang was the wife of the Minister of the Household; it made no sense for her to fabricate such a tale to deceive her.

“There’s nothing wrong with your body. The fetus was unstable in the past few months, so you need to be more cautious and also watch your diet.”

Shao He took out pen and paper and listed all the foods to be avoided.

Jhiang Yijia accepted the list and once again expressed her thanks before departing with Lady Jhiang.

Shao He’s gaze fell on Liang Weishuang. Seeing her wistful and uneasy expression, she asked, “Do you also need treatment?”

“Yes,” Liang Weishuang nodded fervently, like she was pounding garlic.

In the past, she had been against Shao He because she was in love with Chu Yu and was jealous that Shao He became the lady of the Marquis’s Mansion. But now that she had left Marquis Pingnan’s Mansion, there was no longer any need to continue targeting her.

“Dysmenorrhea requires proper treatment, which cannot be rushed. As for your nightmare disorder, it will be resolved in three days without wearing the scented sachet.”

Ever since she had walked in, Shao He had sensed a faint fragrance on Liang that shouldn’t have been there. The fragrance seemed to be mixed with a herb that induced nightmares at night.

It was commonly known as ‘ghost pressing on the bed’!

Unable to awaken, yet able to clearly hear everything happening around one, the fear caused the heart to beat excessively fast, and in the long term, it could lead to heart disease.

“Scented sachet?”

Liang Weishuang looked at the scented sachet around her waist and asked in confusion, “What does this have to do with the scented sachet?”

“It’s very much related. It is because of the fragrance from the sachet that you suffer from the nightmare disorder. The scented sachet has been tampered with.”

She might not understand the convoluted dealings of the imperial court and noble houses, but she was very familiar with such methods. They were all part of the original host’s experiences.

There were even instances where women were made to wear musk to prevent pregnancy. But it was strange, why would someone want Liang Weishuang tormented by nightmares?

If someone wished to harm her, they could simply add other slow-acting poisons to the sachet. Why cause her to live in fear?

“This was a gift from an elder in the family,” Liang Weishuang said, clutching the sachet. “Could it be that you’re mistaken?”

Shao He was in no hurry to convince her, but simply replied lightly, “Try it and see. After you take off the sachet, will you still be plagued by nightmares? Won’t that make it clear?” @@novelbin@@

Liang Weishuang nodded and departed, figuring it couldn’t hurt to try.

News of Jhiang Yijia’s pregnancy spread quickly through the Capital City, and Old Madam Fang had even specially invited the Imperial Physician to check her pulse for peace.

This immediately dispelled the previous rumors in the Capital City. It turned out that Jhiang Yijia’s health had indeed been restored, and the people of the Capital City became intrigued by the female doctor who had treated her. It seemed this female doctor indeed had some skill.

This news, of course, also reached Marquis Pingnan’s Mansion.

Old Madam Chu was trimming branches when she heard the news from the nanny. Her hand trimming the branches paused,

Old Madam Chu was trimming branches when she heard the news from the nanny. Her hand trimming the branches paused, “Is the news reliable?”

“Absolutely reliable. Someone saw the Imperial Physician enter the Fang residence. It seems that the small clinic’s female doctor really has some skill,” said the nanny.

Old Madam put down her scissors and took a cloth from the nanny to wipe her fingers, the surprise in her eyes not yet subsided.

“This Capital City really is full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons, even a small workshop houses such an impressive female doctor.”
