ARDA - Chapter 127 - Give you twice

 Jiang Ning called Shuangyue, who knew the art of disguise. She still had to change her appearance before she goes to meet the Zhuang family.

"There's no need to wear men's clothing. It's easy to see through. Just don't let them see my true appearance." Jiang Ning said. She knew that those disguises wearing masks were not suitable for her.

Shuangyue nodded and simply used the disguise technique.

Soon Jiang Ning transformed into a woman with a disfigured appearance. She was so good at disguise that even her own mother would not be able to recognize her if she was standing in front of her.

She put on her veil and went out.

Outside the door, Butler Zhuang and others couldn't wait any longer and were ready to force their way into the courtyard and take away Divine Doctor Xue.

With a creak, the door opened.

Jiang Ning walked out, looked at Butler Zhuang and said, "The miracle doctor has his own rules and will not make house visits, but this time, he sent me to check the pulse of the young master of your house."

Butler Zhuang saw that it was not Doctor Xue who came out, but a woman, and he immediately felt that he had been tricked.

"The person my young master wants to invite is Doctor Xue! Who are you?"

"I am the direct disciple of the miracle doctor." Jiang Ning said calmly.

Butler Zhuang shouted coldly, with a disdainful look on his face, "What use can a medical woman do? Let Divine Doctor Xue come out as soon as possible! Come out when you're being persuaded, lest you get hurt when you start fighting!"

Jiang Ning looked at Butler Zhuang quietly, "Oh? You don't trust my medical skills?"

She secretly held the silver needle in her hand, and the next moment, she shot it and pierced the meridians of Butler Zhuang's shoulder.

Before Butler Zhuang had time to react, a needle was inserted into his shoulder. He suddenly became angry and wanted to order his men to take down this woman...

Suddenly he found that he couldn't lift his arm.

No, it should be said that his whole arm is numb and has no feeling.

"Ah!"

Butler Zhuang screamed, his face was shocked, "What did you do! My hand...how could my hand..."

Jiang Ning said calmly, "That point is an acupoint that can paralyze people."

She raised her hand and pulled out the silver needle.

Butler Zhuang was surprised to find that his unconscious arm gradually regained consciousness. He clenched his fist, his face was blank, and he didn't know how to react.

"Now, do you still question my medical skills?" Jiang Ning's tone was slightly cold.

Butler Zhuang swallowed his saliva. The trick just now was beyond the reach of ordinary people. Just one injection could make his arm numb and unconscious.

Jiang Ning got on Butler Zhuang's carriage.

Butler Zhuang drove to the house on West Street. The place he went to was not the Zhuang Family's house, but the house purchased by the young master.

The carriage was driving, Shuangyue stared at the carriage in the dark and followed quietly.

They arrive at West Street House.

Butler Zhuang led Jiang Ning to see the young master.

Incense was lit in the room, and thin green smoke rose up, filling the room. However, the smell was not very good, because there was also a faint stench that could not be covered up no matter what.

Jiang Ning walked into the room and frowned slightly. She could still smell the stench even though she was wearing a veil.

"Master, the doctor is here." Butler Zhuang walked over and said.

There was a man lying on the bed, separated by the bed curtain, with a soft face and gloomy eyes.

The man glanced at Jiang Ning and snorted coldly, "Why is it a woman? Didn't I ask you to ask Divine Doctor Xue to come over?"

Butler Zhuang hurriedly explained, "She is a direct disciple of Doctor Xue. Her medical skills are very good. She just used a needle to make me numb."

The man stared at Butler Zhuang with a cold gaze.

Butler Zhuang wiped his sweat and did not dare to raise his head to look at the person in front of him.

After a while, the man sneered and said, "Okay, let her try. If she can't cure me, she will be buried in the garden. It happens that some of my peonies have not been fertilized."

The tone was sinister, full of evil and coldness.

Jiang Ning looked at the man. She couldn't see his face clearly because of the bed curtain, but she recognized him from his voice. He was the young master of the Zhuang family, Zhuang Wei.

Is this the person who touched her?

But why are they targeting her? She obviously has nothing to do with the Zhuang family and has never met them. Why would the Zhuang family send someone to kidnap her?

Jiang Ning walked over, lowered her eyes, covered her gaze, and said calmly, "I'm going to check your pulse. Please extend your hand, Master."

The man stared at her with a cold gaze, "Did you hear that? If I you can't cure me, you will become a flower fertilizer." As he said that, he stretched out his hand from the bed tent.

Jiang Ning wanted to grab his hand and check his pulse.

Butler Zhuang immediately came up and put a handkerchief on Zhuang Wei's wrist.

Jiang Ning frowned, wow, a grown man still does these tricks.

She began to diagnose her pulse while thinking about what Zhuang Wei was going to do. Zhuang Wei probably would never have thought until his death that the person who was treating him now was the daughter of the Marquis family that he wanted to capture.

After a while, Jiang Ning already knew what kind of disease Zhuang Wei had.

He was able to tell based on his pulse and the faint rotten stench emanating from his body.

"What disease do you think I have?" Zhuang Wei asked coldly.

Jiang Ning didn't answer. Seeing the faint black and blue marks under his sleeves, she took away the handkerchief.

Then she grabbed his hand and pushed up his sleeves.

Zhuang Wei's eyes widened and he trembled, "What are you doing!"

Butler Zhuang was also shocked. He didn't expect that the medical girl would dare to grab his young master's hand. You know, his young master hated women touching him the most.

Jiang Ning saw the black and blue bruises on Zhuang Wei's arm, as well as some sores and rot. She narrowed her eyes slightly and let go of his hand.

"The young master himself should know better about this disease." Jiang Ning said quietly.

Zhuang Wei quickly pulled down his sleeves to cover the marks on his arms.

Jiang Ning finally understood why Zhuang Wei was hiding behind the bed tent, not daring to show his true face to others, and moved to a residence on West Street. He had a disease that could not be spread to the outside world. If the news spread, his reputation would be ruined.

"Master..." Butler Zhuang looked at his young master nervously, fearing that the young master would be angry.

Zhuang Wei stared at Jiang Ning coldly for a while and asked, "Can you cure me? If you can't cure me, you should know the consequences."

"Yes." Jiang Ning said.

Zhuang Wei was stunned. Is it such a simple answer? 

He knew exactly what kind of disease he had. He had seen several doctors, but they all said they could not be cured. Finally, he heard that Divine Doctor Xue was very skilled, so he sent for Divine Doctor Xue.

Zhuang Wei snorted coldly, "I've seen a lot of people who tell lies. If I can't be cured, well..."

Jiang Ning said calmly, "I said it can be cured, but the consultation fee is not cheap." She stretched out a finger and said, "One thousand taels."

Zhuang Wei stared at her grimly for a while, "Okay, if it can be cured, let alone a thousand taels, I'll give you twice as much!"

He is going crazy from this disease.

He can't see people outside, and he can't tell his family.

If he continues to hide like this, people outside will definitely find out about it, and he must be cured as soon as possible.

Jiang Ning turned around and said, "I'll go back to get the medicine. Please ask the housekeeper to follow me and get the medicine."

Butler Zhuang sent Jiang Ning back to the house.

Jiang Ning prepared the medicine and prepared the pills, and gave them to Butler Zhuang. "Take it once a day. I will go for a follow-up consultation in three days. Please pick me up then."
