Chapter 409

"De Gui, no need to worry. My son Huang Xu was seriously ill for many years, but after Lord Xuande's treatment, he has greatly improved."

Cai Mao nodded. If it weren't for the fact that there was no other way for his sister's illness, he really wouldn't want to owe Liu Bei a favor, lest Liu Biao suspect him.

"My sister is the future Governor's wife; she cannot have any mishaps."

At the Cai residence,

Liu Bei, led by Cai Mao, came to the rear mansion,

to a clean and exquisite small courtyard.

At this time, the small courtyard was filled with the smell of Chinese medicine; apparently, this Cai woman was quite seriously ill.

Entering the room, Liu Bei couldn't help but have his eyes light up as he looked at the Cai woman lying on the bed.

Although her complexion was somewhat pale, it couldn't hide her beauty at all.

Her skin was fair, and her large, dark, clear eyes set off her soft, full red lips.

Her lazy posture was clearly showing off her long legs; her jade legs were alluring.

The Cai woman stared blankly at Liu Bei, secretly startled in her heart.

"This is the great hero whose prestige shakes the nine provinces; he is so young and handsome, with an extraordinary temperament!"

As the two looked at each other, some kind of current seemed to be generated!

Cai Mao coughed.

"Lord Xuande, my sister hasn't been able to eat anything for the past few days, and she also has headaches and angina."

Liu Bei nodded.

"I will take the Cai woman's pulse first."

The Cai woman said softly and weakly,

"Many thanks, Lord Xuande."

Her voice was soft, sweet, and moving; her delicate and weak feeling made people pity her.

Liu Bei sat by the bed and seriously took the Cai woman's pulse.

Not long after, he glanced at the Cai woman.

"Brother De Gui, your sister's heart energy is knotted, and her vital energy is knotted in her chest, leading to poor circulation throughout her body. If this continues, I'm afraid there will be a danger to her life!"

Cai Mao was frightened.

"Lord Xuande, please save my little sister!"

He truly believed it; after all, the famous physicians of Jingzhou had no way, and his little sister hadn't been able to eat for days!

The Cai woman was also frightened. Actually, she was faking the illness; she just wanted to see Liu Bei, or perhaps she had other ideas.

The Cai woman thought to herself,

"Could it be that I am really terminally ill without knowing it?!"

The livestream chat exploded.

"Damn, so Cai Mao's little sister is this pretty!"

"This is called enchanting; the kind you want to bully at first glance!"

"Let the Eared Thief treat her? Cai Mao isn't using his heart!"

"I feel like I see a vast green grassland on Liu Biao's head!"

"The two of them were already discharging electricity just by looking at each other!"

Cai Mao was anxious.

"Lord Xuande, what medicinal herbs are needed? I will go handle it immediately. I beg you, you must save my little sister."

The Cai woman wasn't moved; she knew Cai Mao was just afraid she wouldn't be able to marry into the Governor's Mansion!

Liu Bei smiled.

"No problem. Although the Cai woman's situation is serious, I only need to perform acupuncture and massage her acupoints daily, supplemented by medicine. Within a month, the illness will naturally be cured."

Cai Mao?? Acupuncture and acupoint massage daily… this is getting unclear!

Liu Bei seemed to think he didn't believe him and continued,

"Brother De Gui doesn't believe in my medical skills? The Governor's wife was terminally ill, and I was able to cure her and extend her life by seven or eight years."

Cai Mao was shocked when he heard this.

"The Governor's wife can still live for eight years?!"

Liu Bei nodded.

"Maybe even longer; if well-regulated, ten years is not impossible."

Cai Mao was cursing Liu Bei wildly in his heart, but on the surface, he still smiled.

"The whole province should be grateful for Lord Xuande's benevolence."

Liu Bei felt that this Cai Mao wasn't sincerely thanking him; his expression was too perfunctory!

The Cai woman on the bed was almost scared silly, thinking to herself,

"Ten years? I'll be thirty by then! And I'll still have to marry the sixty-plus-year-old Liu Biao? That's fatal! Fortunately, I found a new path!"

If she really had to wait ten years, the Cai woman would be Jingzhou's super spinster!

The Cai woman coughed violently, and her condition seemed to worsen instantly.

Liu Biao let Cai Mao go out quickly, saying he needed to treat the Cai woman himself.

Cai Mao naturally didn't dare to be negligent and had the Cai woman's personal maidservant keep watch.

When only the three of them were left in the room,

Liu Bei opened his medicine box and instructed the maidservant to fetch a basin of hot water.

Finally, only the two of them were left in the room.

Liu Bei stared at the Cai woman, remaining silent.

The Cai woman was blushed by Liu Bei's gaze and said in a low voice,

"Lord Xuande, what's wrong?"

Liu Bei said in a low voice,

"The Cai woman is indeed knotted, often having chest tightness, but it hasn't reached that serious a level, has it?"

The Cai woman's face turned even redder; it turned out Liu Bei knew everything.

She struggled to sit up and bowed gracefully.

"Lord Xuande has always been benevolent and righteous; this young woman wants to beg Lord Xuande to save her life."

She bowed a bit too forcefully, and having not eaten for days, her body was weak, so she couldn't help but fall off the bed.

Liu Bei was quick-witted and caught the Cai woman's waist.

The two leaned against each other.

Liu Bei felt the Cai woman's skin was truly delicate, her body very soft, and she was even more beautiful at close range.

The Cai woman's heart was about to jump out when she was held by Liu Bei.

Feeling Liu Bei's breath, the Cai woman's cheeks were crimson, and she lost her focus instantly as she looked at Liu Bei's well-defined face.

The Cai woman's voice was weak.

"Many thanks, Lord Xuande."

"Be careful, Cai woman; your body is weak, it's better to just lie down."

The maidservant brought the water in and was stunned to see the two of them hugging!

Liu Bei said seriously,

"Come over and support your young lady; she almost fell off the bed."

"Oh."

The maidservant suddenly understood; so that was it.

The Cai woman secretly praised Liu Bei; Lord Xuande is truly alert…

The livestream chat exploded.

"Damn, the Eared Thief is too scummy!"

"That is Brother Jingsheng's bride-to-be."

"Old husband and young wife; didn't you see the Cai woman isn't happy at all!"

Liu Bei performed acupuncture on the Cai woman and found her skin was truly white and truly smooth.

The Cai woman was also blushing, her heart filled with shame that was hard to resolve…
