The doctors did not agree to let Tan Rou intervene in the treatment because they did not trust this foreign woman. His Majesty the King could have held on for a while longer, but if this woman were to treat him, itâs possible that the King might end up lying in an urn tonight.
âNo, you are a person of unknown origin; you cannot treat the King,â said the doctor.
However, Princess Samiyi said, âMiss Tan Rou, I believe you are a miraculous person. If you have a way to save my brother, I will do everything in my power to meet your demands. Whatever you want, I will surely help you get it.â@@novelbin@@
Tan Rou had no desires for material things; she could obtain what she wanted with her own wisdom. Nevertheless, she agreed to Princess Samiyi because she too had a brother, and if he were lying there, she would certainly be more heartbroken than Princess Samiyi.
âThe princess has spoken; do you still intend to stop me?â Tan Rou glared at the doctors blocking her way, âWhat you see as an incurable disease might be curable from my perspective.â
After all, she had competed with the Grim Reaper for lives before; what was there to fear now?
With the princess having given her command, the doctors at her side had no good reason to prevent her, and so they let Tan Rou approach His Majesty the King.
Princess Samiyi made room for Tan Rou and even personally brought her a chair.
Tan Rou thanked her, then began to take the Kingâs pulse.
The Kingâs body was weaker than it appeared, and his meridians were very chaotic, with his pulse sometimes weak, sometimes strong, like a roller coaster ride.
She had indeed never seen such a disease before, but she had treated many complicated and difficult cases. For a disease like this, she could quickly develop a treatment plan.
âI can treat your brotherâs illness, but I do not have my medical tools at hand, all my tools are back home. If you allow me to treat your brother, I will have the tools sent over right now,â said Tan Rou.
The doctor in charge didnât believe her, âHis Majesty has been sick for over a decade, and neither domestic nor international doctors have been able to diagnose the illness. How can you determine what ails him with just one look, one touch?â
Tan Rou rolled her eyes at him, âSo do we treat him or not? If you donât want treatment, I can leave right now.â
âTreat him!â Princess Samiyi pushed the doctor away, âMove aside, I want to talk to Miss Tan Rou.â
Tan Rou gave the doctor a challenging look and said, âIf you need my treatment, then go prepare enough blood bags. Before my medicine and tools arrive, you must ensure that His Majesty the King is still alive.â
The doctor didnât trust Tan Rou, but Princess Samiyi did, and she scolded, âHurry up, if you delay Miss Tan Rouâs treatment, I will not let you off the hook!â
The doctor had no choice but to follow Tan Rouâs instructions.
Tan Rou was not idle either. Even though she had no medical tools in hand, she could still conduct a simple examination to gauge the extent of the Kingâs weakness.
âMiss Tan Rou, whatever you need, just tell me. If I can find it, I will surely bring it to you,â Princess Samiyi said, âIf you can cure my brother, whatever you want, I can give it to you, even if itâs my country.â
Tan Rou had no desire for a country; she preferred to stay in the laboratory, conducting research. As for managing a country, that was too troublesome; she did not want to deal with it.
âItâs not necessary. Just have someone pick up what I need. The medicinal herbs and tools I need cannot be bought in your country, so I have to call someone from home to send them over,â Tan Rou placed the Kingâs hand down and continued, âI will go make a call now. Stay here with the King and talk to him as much as possible. Do not let him slip into a coma; otherwise, it would be quite troublesome.â
Princess Samiyi nodded, âOkay, Iâll do as you say.â
Tan Rou stepped aside to make a call. Since no one here understood her language, she could use it freely.
âZhuang Liu, are you free now?â Tan Rou called Zhuang Liu.
Zhuang Liu thought Tan Rou was done with her business and wanted to chat with him, so he immediately said, âIâm free.â
Tan Rou gave a slight smile and said, âThen I need a favor. Please go to the university town and pick up some things from the pharmacy for me; Iâve encountered a difficult patient here.â
