A Military Doctor Became a Stepmom in Ancient Times

377 Toothache

However, the magistrate did not expect the emperor to not ask him to do anything at all.

He knew what King Chu had done all these years, but the emperor did not use him.

He thought of betraying him, but on second thought, if he really betrayed him, it would be fine if he succeeded. If not, he would be a sinner for all eternity.

Besides, hadn’t the two princes thought of betrayal? They had raised an army to rebel and used the plague, but they hadn’t succeeded. What did that mean? It meant that the emperor had many subordinates.

He was alone. He had no power or influence. Would he dare?

“I can’t contact Doctor Gu. I’m just here to look for him, but I can introduce someone to you. You can ask that person for help. No, I’ll take you there.”

Jiang Ying knew about the magistrate. He also knew that the magistrate had been unsuccessful. He could help.

King Chu had to be dealt with, but it depended on how the emperor dealt with him.

This magistrate was a general under the emperor. It was very admirable that he was willing to become a civil servant and come to King Chu’s fief.

It had to be known that the most glorious time of a general’s life was on the battlefield. Now that the Great Yun Nation, Russia, and the Black City Nation were going to war, the magistrate was naturally tempted.

Therefore, the magistrate took this opportunity.

“Really? Then I’ll have to trouble Prince Jiang,” the magistrate said.

“I’ll bring you there tonight,” Jiang Ying said.

He thought of Ning Yue. Ning Yue should be able to treat this problem. Moreover, Ning Yue was in Luzhou now. That was King Chu’s fief, and it was quite close to here.

He first got someone to send a letter to Ning Yue, then brought the magistrate to look for her at night.

Actually, the magistrate did not hold out much hope. Had he not seen enough doctors over the years? They had almost stripped him of his back teeth, but he still had not recovered.

However, since Jiang Ying said that he would bring him to see a new doctor, he had to give him some face.

Ning Yue received a letter from Jiang Ying in the afternoon. In the letter, he asked her to quietly come out to the city to meet him at night and help treat a patient.

She had prepared medical equipment that a dentist needed.

Ning Yue was still wondering what patient could make Jiang Ying so concerned. In the end, at night, when she went to the city, Jiang Ying brought her to a spacious room. She was stunned.

Was this burly, smiling person the magistrate called Qian Cen?

His aura did not show it at all.

Speaking of which, what was Jiang Ying thinking when he went through so much trouble to ask her to come?

Jiang Ying explained to Ning Yue. Only then did Ning Yue understand his intentions.

“Alright, I can only say that I’ll give it a try. I don’t know if it’ll work. After all, I’m not a dentist,” Ning Yue said.

Hearing Ning Yue’s words, Qian Cen lost even more hope.

Ning Yue waved at Jiang Ying, indicating that he should come over and help. “Jiang Ying, help me hold the mirror.”

Jiang Ying was puzzled by Ning Yue’s actions, but he still went forward obediently. He picked up the mirror and pointed it at Qian Cen’s mouth according to Ning Yue’s instructions.

Qian Cen was puzzled. Legend has it that Prince Jiang did not get close to women. He did not know why he married later, but he thought that it was Lord Jiang’s idea. After all, the woman in front of him was a princess of Russia.

There were many benefits to Great Yun Nation marrying Russia.

He was very curious. Why did Prince Jiang listen to a woman so much?

When Ning Yue arrived, she took out a very ordinary first aid kit. She took out tweezers and braces from the box and gestured for Qian Cen to open his mouth. Qian Cen was used to a doctor’s examination of him, so he cooperated and asked Ning Yue to put the braces on.

The braces made him very uncomfortable, but Ning Yue said that this was to better observe the situation in his mouth. She was afraid that his mouth would be tired in the later stages and he would not be able to keep it open.

When Qian Cen heard this, he tried to bite his braces. When he realized that they were hard and he couldn’t move, he grunted.

Ning Yue took the tweezers and examined Qian Cen. The mirror reflected the situation in Qian Cen’s mouth.

Qian Cen’s mouth was in a terrible state. The teeth that had been pulled out for a long time were fine and had mostly recovered, but the teeth that had been recently pulled out not only had bloody holes, but the gums were also badly swollen.

Not to mention the pain, the treatment of the wound was a problem.

After all, this was ancient times, and the technique for treating wounds was not so advanced.
