The Sickly Regent Prince Who Was Abandoned as a Substitute Bride

Chapter 182 Applying acupuncture to Lu Muchuan's legs

"Sister Wan'er!" Lu Qingcheng ran over excitedly and hugged Dongfang Wan'er.

"Qingcheng, be good! Here, this is some food your sister brought for you." Dongfang Wan'er had Qiuqin hand the things in her hand to Qingcheng.

"Hehe, Sister Wan'er is so nice!" Lu Qingcheng laughed happily.

"Hehe, I heard that Wan'er is coming to treat Mu Chuan's leg. Wan'er, don't force yourself. If Mu Chuan's leg can be treated, then treat it. If it can't be treated, then we've already accepted it!"

Lu Yanchen had already received his daughter's message, so he was well aware of her attitude towards the matter. However, as a father, he did not want his daughter to feel pressured or uneasy because of family ties.

Therefore, he expressed his understanding and support for his daughter in his words, letting her know that no matter what the outcome, they had accepted reality.

"Yes, Wan'er, your uncle's leg has been like this for so many years, I'm used to it!" Lu Muchuan said casually. He didn't want to make things difficult for his niece, and he didn't want to see her troubled because of his problems.

So he chose to approach the issue in a relaxed way, so that his niece wouldn't be too nervous.

"Mu Chuan, Wan'er says she can cure it, so she can? You have to trust Wan'er!"

Lu Qingmo disliked Lu Muchuan's personality; he felt that Lu Muchuan was always too negative and unwilling to try new possibilities.

He believes that as long as there is a glimmer of hope, one should strive for it rather than give up easily.

"Second brother, there's no need for this, I..." Lu Muchuan wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Lu Qingmo!

"I won't listen, I won't listen, I won't listen to your grand principles. My niece Wan'er, what do you need to prepare? Your second uncle will definitely prepare it..." Lu Qingmo didn't give Lu Muchuan a chance to speak and turned to ask Lu Wan'er directly.

"Qingmo, Muchuan, you should listen to what Wan'er has to say!" Lu Chengfeng shook his head helplessly when he saw the two brothers acting like this again.

He understood his two younger brothers' personalities: one was overly pessimistic, and the other overly optimistic, and they often disagreed on things. But he also knew that they were both acting out of concern and love for their family.

"Uncle, Second Uncle, Little Uncle, don't worry, Wan'er is 100% sure. This is a Tian Shan Snow Lotus that I found in the snow mountain. You've all heard of Tian Shan Snow Lotus, right?" Dongfang Wan'er said confidently.

"Wan'er, you actually found the Tianshan Snow Lotus!" Su Yazhen was shocked. Of course, she knew how precious and rare the Tianshan Snow Lotus was.

"Yes, Aunt, you should know more about the Tianshan Snow Lotus, so Uncle's leg will definitely get better," Dongfang Wan'er explained to Su Yazhen with a smile.

Su Yazhen gave everyone a detailed introduction to the effects and value of Tianshan snow lotus. After listening, everyone nodded and expressed their anticipation for the miraculous therapeutic effects of Tianshan snow lotus.

"Great! The effects of this Tian Shan snow lotus are so amazing, Mu Chuan's leg will definitely get better!" Lu Qingmo said with a face full of joy.

Everyone's faces showed joy and anticipation, and they all turned their gazes toward Dongfang Wan'er.

"No need to prepare anything, Qiuqin, give the medicinal herbs to your aunt!" Dongfang Wan'er turned to look at Su Yazhen.

"Aunt, please have someone brew these medicinal herbs and pour them into the bathtub. My uncle can soak in the medicine first, and then the surgery can begin. Also, please prepare a quiet room." Dongfang Wan'er arranged everything methodically.

"Alright! Someone, take this away and boil it, do as Miss Wan'er said!" Su Yazhen ordered loudly.

"Yes!" the servants replied in unison, then carefully took the medicinal herbs and turned to brew them.

Soon, the brewed medicine was brought in, emitting a rich herbal aroma.

The servants carefully poured the medicinal liquid into the bathtub, and steaming mist filled the room, filling it with the aroma of herbs.

"Madam, the medicinal herbs are ready!" a servant reported.

"Uncle, you can go in for a bath now," Dongfang Wan'er said softly. She and the others left the room, leaving Lu Muchuan alone inside.

After watching Lu Muchuan enter the room, Lu Yanchen turned to Dongfang Wan'er and said, "Wan'er, are you really sure about your uncle's leg? Don't push yourself too hard, don't put pressure on yourself!" His face was full of worry, and his eyes revealed his concern.

Dongfang Wan'er smiled slightly and comforted him, "Grandfather, don't worry. What I said when my uncle was here is the same as what I'm saying now! I will do my best to help him recover his health." She knew Lu Yanchen's worries, but she also believed in her own abilities.

"That's good, that's good!" Hearing Dongfang Wan'er's reply, Lu Yanchen finally felt a little relieved. He knew that Dongfang Wan'er had extraordinary medical talent and hoped that she could create a miracle.

At this moment, only the servant and Lu Muchuan remained in the room.

With the servant's help, Lu Muchuan successfully entered the bathtub!

After entering the bathtub, Lu Muchuan felt a wave of heat wash over him, making him feel completely refreshed. He closed his eyes, enjoying the warmth of the water, and his body gradually relaxed.

Suddenly, to his surprise, he discovered that his legs, which had been completely numb, were now feeling a warm current. This warm current seemed to rise from the bottom of his heart, slowly flowing through his leg muscles, bringing a strange sensation.

"Could my leg really be cured?" A glimmer of hope welled up in Lu Muchuan's heart. He had originally lost hope for his leg, but now he couldn't help but start to believe Dongfang Wan'er's words.

"Perhaps, my niece really can cure my leg!" This thought grew stronger in Lu Muchuan's mind, and he decided to believe in Dongfang Wan'er this once.

After taking a bath, Lu Muchuan was led to a prepared room. He sat on the bed, feeling both nervous and expectant.

"You all need to leave. I'm going to reconnect the tendons in my uncle's legs! No matter what happens, you are not allowed to come in or interfere with me!" Dongfang Wan'er said sternly. Her voice was firm and powerful, leaving no room for argument.

Everyone left the room, leaving only Lu Muchuan and Dongfang Wan'er.

Dongfang Wan'er walked to the bedside, looked at Lu Muchuan, and said seriously, "Uncle, take off your pants. This treatment is different from the last one!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Muchuan looked embarrassed and hesitated before saying, "Niece Wan'er, take... take off your pants..."

Dongfang Wan'er seemed to notice his embarrassment, smiled slightly, and explained, "Uncle, don't be shy, we're all family. I just want to help you with your treatment better." After saying that, she turned around to prepare acupuncture tools.

Lu Muchuan always appeared extremely rational and indifferent to everything, but now, upon hearing Dongfang Wan'er mention taking off his pants, his perpetually unchanging face suddenly showed some emotion!

"...Okay, Uncle, just one pair of trousers will do!"

Dongfang Wan'er carefully disinfected the silver needles, unaware of the unnatural expression on Lu Muchuan's face.

When she finished all the preparations and looked up, she saw that Lu Muchuan was still sitting in the same position.

"Huh? What's going on? Why haven't you taken your pants off yet?"

Dongfang Wan'er turned to ask the servant beside her.

"Miss Wan'er, the young master won't let us take our clothes off."

The servant looked troubled.

Only then did Dongfang Wan'er notice that Lu Muchuan's face was turning from pale to red, and she finally realized what the problem was.

“Uncle, now I am a doctor. In the eyes of a doctor, there is no distinction between men and women, and everyone looks about the same.”

Dongfang Wan'er tried to comfort him, but she didn't know that her words would cause even more trouble.

Lu Muchuan stared at Dongfang Wan'er in shock, his mind filled with doubt: "The same? What does that mean? Why does Wan'er say that?"

"Hurry up and take your pants off, don't waste time!"

Dongfang Wan'er urged the servant to hurry up and get to work.

The servant hurriedly helped Lu Muchuan take off his pants, but Lu Muchuan was still in a daze and hadn't come to his senses at all.

At this moment, his face showed an expression of annoyance, anger, regret, or perhaps rage.

He cursed Ye Jiuchen inwardly for daring to lay a hand on Wan'er. Once his leg injury healed, he would definitely break Ye Jiuchen's third leg.

Seeing that Lu Muchuan had no reaction, Dongfang Wan'er began to focus on administering acupuncture.

She skillfully took out the silver needles and gently inserted them precisely into the acupoints on Lu Muchuan's legs. Lu Muchuan suddenly felt a sharp pain in his legs, a sensation he hadn't experienced in a long time.
