Li Chengquan didn't understand what the Dowager meant, and why she suddenly said that she was wrong.

Then he looked down and realized that there was a child in front of the Empress Dowager.

This child is so close to the Dowager Consort, is she a little princess born to one of the concubines in the Prince's mansion?

But how come he's never seen it before?

Seeing that Li Chengquan was still confused, the Dowager had no choice but to point at him:

"Ruo'er clearly came in with Jinzhong, so why did you only see Jinzhong?"

Li Chengquan immediately sensed from the Empress Dowager's tone how much she valued the girl in front of her.

"This old minister's eyesight is failing; I was so overjoyed to see the young general in good health that I forgot myself. Please forgive me, Your Highness. However, I wonder about this person..."

Zhou Ruo approached Li Chengquan and looked at his face carefully, but there was nothing special about it.

With a white beard and a face full of wrinkles, why was he able to get into the Imperial Hospital?

"Are you the imperial physician?" Zhou Ruo asked.

Li Chengquan looked at Zhou Ruo's clear, bright eyes, but he just couldn't remember which little princess she was.

"Yes, this old minister is Li Chengquan, the head of the Imperial Medical Academy."

"Are you the Imperial Physician Li?" Zhou Ruo suddenly seemed excited.

Li Chengquan was puzzled. "My surname is Li. I am a physician in the Imperial Medical Academy. You may call me Physician Li."

Zhou Ruo took out the set of silver needles from her bosom, handed it to Li Chengquan, and asked, "Is this the set of silver needles you gave me?"

Lee Sung-kwon: "???"

Although Li Chengquan recognized at a glance that this was the set of pure silver needles he had given to Zhao Yucheng, he still took it and opened it to take a look.

"This? How did you end up with this set of silver needles?" Li Chengquan felt dizzy.

He was still thinking unhappily to himself, how could that divine doctor just hand over such precious silver needles to a child?

That's incredibly audacious!

Wait a minute, Li Chengquan recalled that Zhou Ruo had just said that he had given her this set of silver needles, so what about her?

Lee Seong-kwon cast a questioning glance at the Dowager Empress.

The Empress Dowager's expression softened, and she said with a smile, "Imperial Physician Li, this child before you is the divine physician you have been looking for."

"Huh? This!" Li Chengquan took two steps back and looked Zhou Ruo up and down again.

Zhou Ruo looked at Li Chengquan with a smile, thinking to herself, "This is just another person who doesn't believe that a child like her can do medicine."

Forgive him, be tolerant of him.

Li Chengquan quickly suppressed his suspicion.

Medical skills can fool others, but in front of Li Chengquan, you can forget about getting away with it.

He was the head of the Imperial Medical Academy and the number one expert in silver needles in the court!

Li Chengquan extended a hand to Zhou Ruo, "Miss, please use this silver needle to prick my hand."

If one is not a true inheritor of the skills, one absolutely cannot use these silver needles.

Whether the child before you is a miracle doctor or not, you'll find out by trying.

"Great!" Zhou Ruo replied casually.

She took out three silver needles and quickly inserted one into Li Chengquan's wrist.

Li Chengquan looked at the silver needles on his wrist and was shocked once again.

He couldn't even insert those silver needles, so he couldn't use them, but this child in front of him instantly inserted them into his acupoints!

The pressure was just right, and the acupoints were surprisingly accurate.

How could this be? Li Chengquan still couldn't convince herself.

Seeing his bewildered expression, Zhou Ruo simply said, "Lower your head a little."

Lee Sung-kwon did it unconsciously.

Zhou Ruo quickly inserted one of the two silver needles in her hand into Li Chengquan's brow and the other into the top of his head.

"Hey! You!" By the time Li Chengquan realized what was happening, it was too late.

He was about to scold Zhou Ruo for being silly when he heard her ask, "You've had this headache for many years, haven't you?"

Lee Sung-kwon: "!!!"

"This is impossible!" Li Chengquan exclaimed in astonishment, speechless.

He never told anyone outside his family about his headaches.

He himself was known as the "Number One Needle in the World," and was also the head of the Imperial Medical Academy and a royal physician.

He can't even cure his own headaches. If others find out, how will he save face?

So whenever his headaches flared up, he could only relieve them by getting acupuncture and taking medicine, but he was never able to get rid of them completely.

Seeing that he remained silent, Zhou Ruo said again, "I've already cured your headache!"

"What did you say? Cured...cured?" Li Chengquan began to doubt whether he had misheard again.

"Yes! You're a doctor yourself, why don't you experience it for yourself and see!"

Li Chengquan looked at her suspiciously, but also secretly sensed the changes in his own body's energy channels.

I've always felt that my head is heavy and tight, like Sun Wukong wearing a tight headband.

But at that moment, he involuntarily took a deep breath, and had only one feeling: refreshed and invigorated!

Zhou Ruo could tell from his expression that he had already sensed the change.

"Hehe, Doctor Li, go back and check if your head still hurts!"

The Dowager Consort watched Li Chengquan's fascinating changes in expression from behind Zhou Ruo, and chuckled to herself.

If a celestial being hadn't appeared in her dream and told her that a girl from a general's mansion could save her, she probably wouldn't have believed Zhou Ruo.

"Physician Li, how is it?" the Empress Dowager asked.

Lee Sung-kwon was still holding his head in his hands, his eyes rolling upwards and darting around.

I really want to know if my headache has been cured as Zhou Ruo said.

"Your Majesty, this old minister...this old minister is impressed! I am truly impressed!" Li Chengquan replied, bowing his head.

He looked at Zhou Ruo again and said, "I have long heard that General Zhao has taken in a goddaughter. Could she be this little miracle doctor?"

Zhou Ruo chuckled as she looked at him.

The Empress Dowager: "That's right, the little divine physician's name is Zhou Ruo. She is the daughter of the Great General, the younger sister of Jinzhong, and also my newly adopted granddaughter."

"Grand...granddaughter?" Li Chengquan was astonished by the child's good fortune and exclaimed, "Miss Zhou Ruo is truly blessed!"

Li Chengquan was eager to meet the miracle doctor who had cured the Dowager, hoping to learn from him.

But now, upon seeing this young miracle doctor, I discovered that she is full of spiritual energy and can easily use pure silver needles.

He was favored by the General's Mansion for treating illnesses without prescribing medicine, and now he also has the protection of the Dowager Consort and the Prince's Mansion.

Even the two acupoints she inserted on his head were ones he dared not perform acupuncture on casually.

In the short time it takes to drink a cup of tea, his long-standing headache was cured.

After this series of analyses, Li Chengquan realized that he no longer needed to learn from Zhou Ruo.

He simply cannot obtain it.

Zhou Ruo is a little fairy with many merits; the methods she uses to treat the sick are not something that ordinary people can learn.

Li Chengquan looked at Zhou Ruo and sighed silently, "This is truly a blessing from the imperial court!"

With such a miraculous physician in our Great Qing Dynasty, what illness could the Emperor and the people possibly be unable to cure?

"But there are still illnesses I can't cure." Zhou Ruo felt a little depressed when she thought of this.

Li Chengquan was surprised: "Oh? What kind of illness can't the little miracle doctor cure?"

"I couldn't cure my grandmother either," Zhou Ruo muttered softly.
