Xiao Yu and the two royal members walked out of this dark room.
"Doctor, how is it" When Xiao Yu and his group came out, Prince Charles closed the door behind them. He looked at Xiao Yu with an expectant expression as he asked.
Hearing the question from these two British royals, Xiao Yu gave them a meaningful look. Seeing Xiao Yu's gaze, they inexplicably felt a bit anxious in their hearts, but soon regained composure and turned to look at him, awaiting his response.
In fact, both of them were very clear about the girl's issue inside. After all, as members of the royal family, some confidential matters were known to them. They were also well aware of the existence of vampires, but these vampires had never attacked the royal family since there weren't just one power bloc here and besides, there was a legacy of Round Table Knights within the royal family.
Furthermore, vampire families had rules that prohibited attacking members of the royal family. Yet, for some reason, this princess was bitten by a vampire in an initial embrace.
The princess who got bitten is called Ruth. She got bitten and underwent an initial embrace while visiting a nightclub in London.
However, since the vampire that bit her had relatively low strength, Princess Ruth's transformation proceeded rather slowly.
In Britain, even within the royal family, it was known that once bitten by a vampire, recovery was impossible. One would then have to live as a vampire forever. Moreover, there were regulations in the royal family stipulating that if anyone turned into a vampire, they must be purified immediately to maintain the dignity of the royal family.
After Princess Ruth got bitten, due to Queen Elizabeth's deep affection for this granddaughter, she started looking for ways to save her. The Vatican could only purify others; besides, how would the British royal family report such a matter when they couldn't even keep it hidden
Aside from the Vatican, the Round Table Knights had more dealings with vampires than anyone else, yet even they did not know how to save Princess Ruth.
Seeing Princess Ruth's condition worsening day by day and her whole body about to become a vampire. Even now, she already felt an intense craving for blood. If no treatment was given soon, once her desire for blood became too strong and she started drinking it, then purification would be necessary.
The royal family cannot tolerate the existence of a vampire, or else the entire royal household would be thrown into chaos.
A few mornings ago, the leader of the Round Table Knights suddenly came to Buckingham Palace and informed Queen Elizabeth. He believed that the mysterious China might have solutions as he found records stating that when the British royal family, vampires, and the Vatican formed an alliance to invade China in the past, some Chinese people bitten by vampires were cured by doctors practicing Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). TCM is very mysterious, so this Round Table Knight told the Queen they could seek help from it.
That was why Vice Premier Liu's visit to Buckingham Palace happened. After all, as a doctor accompanying high-ranking officials of China, his medical skills were top-notch nationwide; if these doctors couldn't help, others likely wouldn't be able to either.
Judging from their royal household, the best doctors are the royal physicians who rank among the best worldwide. If they can't solve it, it's unlikely that anyone else could.
Therefore, Queen Elizabeth didn't inform Vice Premier Liu beforehand, and besides, she couldn't tell others about a vampire appearing in her royal family because it might cause panic. After all, ordinary people believe vampires are fictitious characters from legends and can't possibly exist.
Thus, the British royal members decided to let TCM practitioners examine them but didn’t mention any specific issues; their intention was that if it could be treated, they would do so without revealing anything else.
"I'm sorry, I cannot treat this patient unless you tell me the truth!" Xiao Yu looked at the two royal members in front of him, shook his head and then turned to walk towards a small room where Vice Premier Liu was. After hearing what Xiao Yu said, these two royal members raised their heads and stared blankly after Xiao Yu's retreating figure.
"Does he know something" A while later, both of them reacted, glanced at each other and saw shock in the other’s eyes.
And from what Xiao Yu had said, it seemed that he could treat this kind of illness. Although Prince Charles' Chinese was poor, and the meaning of a single Chinese character could be entirely different with slight changes, Prince Charles silently pondered over the meaning behind Xiao Yu's words.
A long time later, Prince Charles finally raised his head to look at Xiao Yu who had walked away far ahead. After whispering something to his sister beside him, he followed Xiao Yu into that room.
Prince Charles now understood what Xiao Yu meant and they needed to discuss it with Queen Elizabeth since this matter involved the royal family's reputation. If outsiders knew someone in their royal household had become a vampire, their royal family would have no face to meet all its subjects.
So, whether or not to mention this matter, they still need to consult with the Queen of England; they dare not make their own decision.
"Mr. Xiao, how is it" When Vice Premier Liu and others were chatting with the British queen, Xiao Yu pushed open the door and walked in. Seeing Xiao Yu walk in, Vice Premier Liu asked him softly.
After hearing Vice Premier Liu's question, Xiao Yu shook his head lightly.
Vice Premier Liu’s voice was very soft, but at the moment when Xiao Yu entered, the voices inside the room suddenly fell silent. Therefore, not only did everyone on the Chinese side hear Vice Premier Liu's question clearly, even those from the British royal family heard it as well.
After the interpreter translated Vice Premier Liu’s words to Queen Elizabeth and other members of the royal family, they all revealed a hint of disappointment. Originally, judging from Xiao Yu’s youth and his recommendation by the Chinese premier, they thought he must have some real skills, hence harboring a bit of hope. However, seeing Xiao Yu shake his head now, this little bit of hope was completely shattered.
However, this didn’t cause much disturbance in their hearts because everyone knew what happened to Princess Ruth and that the reason for inviting a Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor was due to its mysterious nature in their minds. There was even a possibility that it might work.
Vice Premier Liu also felt disappointed when seeing Xiao Yu shake his head; he knew about Xiao Yu’s miraculous abilities, so he still hoped that Xiao Yu could cure this princess. Their visit to Britain was mainly for economic negotiations, and if Xiao Yu could heal the princess, it would be very beneficial to their negotiation.
However, at present, Xiao Yu couldn’t help but abandon this method.
Just as everyone was deep in thought, Prince Charles and another member of the royal family entered. Upon entering, they also felt the strange atmosphere inside the room, but now wasn't the time to care about it. They walked straight up to Queen Elizabeth’s side, glanced at Xiao Yu once, then whispered what Xiao Yu had said earlier to her.
Upon hearing Charles' words, Queen Elizabeth suddenly turned around, her eyes carrying a hint of authority as she looked at Xiao Yu.
The crowd in the room were also staring at Charles and Queen Elizabeth. They never imagined that this queen, who was in her eighties with a hunched back, would have such an imposing gaze; just one look made them feel pressured. This kind of pressure they had only felt from their great-grandfather.
Back then, the great-grandfather was slender and small, but even a casual glance could make people shiver with fear. Many in this group had seen the great-grandfather back then; just standing before him made them feel it hard to breathe, as if they couldn't speak at all.
This British queen, although not as great as her ancestor, has ruled for over half a century and is no less remarkable.
Only Xiao Yu was unaffected by the old lady's gaze; to him, any form of pressure was nothing but a joke.
The Queen of England gave Xiao Yu, who sat calmly at his seat, a deep look and then stood up. She said, "Please allow our distinguished guests to rest for a moment while we take care of some matters."
With that, the British Queen nodded apologetically towards Vice Premier Liu and the others before being led out by two other royal members.
Vice Premier Liu watched as the British queen and her entourage left, feeling puzzled. Once they had gone, he turned to Xiao Yu and asked, "Mr. Xiao, what's going on"
"Vice Premier Liu, this is a patient's secret that can't be disclosed. I can only say that they haven't been entirely truthful," replied Xiao Yu after giving the matter some thought.
"Oh!" Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Vice Premier Liu responded softly before falling into deep contemplation. After a while, he looked up and asked, "Xiao, if you're saying this, does that mean there is still hope for the patient"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu thought about it and replied, "If they were truthful with me, there might be a chance."
"Oh, really" Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Vice Premier Liu showed an expression of relief. The rest of the people who came along with him also exchanged glances upon hearing this news, their faces showing surprise and hope. Any hope was good enough; they knew that if this mission to Britain succeeded, it would be a significant political achievement for them, far more important than it would be for Vice Premier Liu himself. Therefore, they were even more eager than Vice Premier Liu to see Xiao Yu heal the royal princess.
About half an hour later, the British Queen returned with her entourage.
"Vice Premier Liu, may I ask you to step aside We have some matters to discuss with this doctor," said the British Queen as she walked in and addressed Vice Premier Liu sitting at his seat.
“Haha, alright..." Upon hearing the British Queen's words, Vice Premier Liu nodded with a smile, showing that he understood. He then led everyone out of the room, returning to where the other doctors and staff were waiting.nged dramatically as he exclaimed, "The Tiger Form in the Twelve Forms Intention Style"The Black Cloaked Man quickly leaped back and stood in front of the young man, looking at Xiao Yu with a serious...
