āAt this moment, the middle-aged man made a long bow to Lu Changsheng and said, āIām the steward of Xia Mansion in Yancheng. My young miss has contracted a strange illness, and Iāve come here to invite Doctor Wu to make a visit.ā
āUnexpectedly, Doctor Wu is unwell and canāt travel far. However, Doctor Lu has inherited the true teachings of Doctor Wu, and I believe his medical skills are outstanding. Would Doctor Lu be willing to visit Yancheng? If Doctor Lu is willing to go and successfully treats my young miss, a consultation fee of a hundred gold coins will be given!ā
Lu Changsheng was somewhat surprised.
A hundred gold coins was no small amount. When converted to silver, it was a thousand taels!
This was undoubtedly a significant sum!
Of course, Lu Changsheng wasnāt lacking in silver, but it seemed that Master Wu had some connection with the Xia family.
Doctor Wu spoke, āChangsheng, it wouldnāt hurt to take a look. Xiaās gentleman helped me a bit in the past. If you can cure the illness, thatās great; if not, just be honest about it.ā
Lu Changsheng suddenly understood.
No wonder Master had specifically sent him on this trip; there was indeed a connection with the Xia family.
āMaster has given an order, and how could I disobey?ā
āXia Steward, could you allow me to return home and prepare for the journey? After all, Yancheng is quite a distance away.ā
āPlease do as you need, Doctor Lu.ā
So, Lu Changsheng returned home to make preparations.
This trip to Yancheng was quite a long one, not in Nanyang Prefecture but in Qingshan Prefecture.
In normal circumstances, it would take three to five days to travel.
In the current era, traveling far from home still carried some risks.
If it werenāt for Wu Jingās past connection with the Xia family, he would not have sent Lu Changsheng to Yancheng.
After packing his things, Lu Changsheng returned to Wu Jingās pharmacy.
āDoctor Lu, weāve prepared a carriage for you. Please get on the carriage.ā
Lu Changsheng nodded and saw the carriage on the side.
He then got on the carriage.
The Xia steward and Wu Jing bid farewell, and then the carriage headed out of the city.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.
The carriage slowly entered Yancheng.
During this time, Lu Changsheng had a rough idea of what the Xia family was involved in. After all, all the martial practitioners escorting the carriage were body-forging warriors, and the one leading them was even an organ-refining warrior, indicating the great power of the Xia family.ā
āThe Xia family is in the salt business, and they are major salt merchants!
Yancheng is already famous for its well salt, and the Xia family is the largest salt merchant in Yancheng. They are very wealthy, which naturally allows them to cultivate or recruit martial practitioners.
Soon, the carriage slowly entered a massive estate.
This enormous estate was actually larger than the entire Gao Family Manor.
Lu Changsheng considered himself a well-traveled person, and the Gao Family Manor had been exceptionally luxurious.
However, when compared to the Xia familyās estate, the Gao Family Manor seemed insignificant. It even appeared as if the Gao Family Manor were like rural nouveau riche in comparison.
The wealth of salt merchants was evident.
Lu Changsheng was respectfully led into the main hall, where Mr. Xia had been waiting for some time. Upon seeing Lu Changsheng, Mr. and Mrs. Xia immediately rose and said, āDoctor Lu, youāve finally arrived.ā
āBack when I had some connections with Doctor Wu, 1 knew that Doctor Wu possessed miraculous healing abilities, and he can be called a saintly figure in the field of medicine. Doctor Lu, inheriting Doctor Wuās legacy, must have exceptional medical skills.ā
āMr. Xia, letās first see if Miss Xia can be treated, but I canāt say for certain.ā
Lu Changsheng said calmly.
āAlright, letās start the treatment first.ā
So, Mr. Xia led Lu Changsheng into Miss Xiaās boudoir.
The boudoir was spacious and filled with the scent of flowers, mixed with a hint of sandalwood.
Several maids were attending to her by the bedside.
On the bed lay a young woman of about fifteen or sixteen.
She had delicate features and fair skin, but her eyes seemed vacant, lacking in vitality, and her complexion was pale, resembling the appearance of someone who was unwell.
Lu Changsheng asked, āMiss Xia, where do you feel uncomfortable?ā
Miss Xia glanced at Lu Changsheng, her eyes briefly showing surprise.
During this period, the Xia family had employed various renowned physicians, mostly elderly ones. A young doctor like Lu Changsheng being allowed to treat her was indeed unusual.
Miss Xia spoke, āIāve been having nightmares. 1 have nightmares every night, and during the day, I feel drowsy and confused, as if Iām easily mixing reality with dreams.ā
Lu Changsheng furrowed his brow upon hearing this; the ailment seemed quite complex.
He proceeded to check Miss Xiaās pulse.
āHow is it, Doctor Xia?ā
Mr. Xia asked anxiously.
Lu Changsheng didnāt rush to answer but instead walked out with Mr. Xia.
āMr. Xia, if Iām not mistaken, Miss Xia seems to be suffering from the Nightmare Syndrome.ā
āNightmare Syndrome?ā
Mr. Xia was slightly taken aback.
āYes, Nightmare Syndrome is not inherently life-threatening, but it can cause mental fatigue and recurrent nightmares.ā
āHowever, from what I know, Nightmare Syndrome is often triggered by someone.ā
Mr. Xia inquired, āWhat do you mean?ā
āIncense! Miss Xia seems to have been drugged with incense, and not for a short period. Prolonged exposure to such incense can result in recurring nightmares at night, leading to Nightmare Syndrome.ā
Lu Changshengās words made Mr. Xiaās complexion change drastically.
Incense!
He knew very well what this meant.
Someone was plotting against his daughter!
āDoctor Lu, is there a way to treat this Nightmare Syndrome?ā
Mr. Xia asked quietly.
āOf course, it can be treated. Iāll prescribe a medicine, and you should change the prescription every three days, a total of three changes, which should take around ten days to restore her health. However, during the treatment period and afterward, Miss Xia must not come into contact with that type of incense. Otherwise, even if sheās cured, the condition may relapse..’ā
