Xiao Chuchu was quite shocked.
[Oh my, who is this person?]
[Sange, combat prowess 91, skilled in horseback archery and wrestling, but he has high blood pressure?]
[Wait, isn't high blood pressure a modern disease?]
[Grassland people already have it now? Oh right, they eat less grain and more meat, with much higher fat, protein and dairy intake than other regions.]
[Plus they like to drink strong alcohol, and some grassland areas are at high altitude, which can also cause high blood pressure.]
[Goodness, why has my diaper touched so many people?]
[How did I suddenly get so much information about combat abilities and physical conditions?]
Xiao Chuchu couldn't figure it out.
She realized that checking combat prowess, which originally required touching the person, now only needed contact with their clothing.
She was currently sitting in the tent, but information was coming from outside.
[This is so strange, what's going on? Has my skill for checking combat prowess malfunctioned?]
With a cough, Xiao Yunzhou, standing outside the tent, spoke softly, "Has the little princess been wrapped well in the quilt? I'm coming in now. The draft won't make the little princess cold, will it?"
Liu Chaniang hurriedly replied, "She's wrapped up well. Your Majesty, please come in."
Only then did Xiao Yunzhou carefully lift the tent flap just enough for half a person to pass through, squeezed in, and then sealed it tightly shut again.
He didn't even let Wei Zheng follow him in.
"Everyone stand back, the little princess is about to sleep," Xiao Yunzhou ordered from inside the tent.
Immediately, Wei Zheng's voice could be heard outside, directing the guards to move away.
Xiao Yunzhou then looked at his daughter in the swaddling cloth with relief and began to tell a lie - no, a well-intentioned cover-up.
"Chaniang, isn't it strange? The grassland people say they have a custom of touching a newborn's diaper as a blessing."
"I had no choice but to let Wei Zheng take our little princess's used diaper and let Ba Tu and the others touch it."
Liu Chaniang: "..."
"Since they have this custom and have come to Jing Country, we should respect it, don't you think?" Xiao Yunzhou fabricated.
After all, Ba Tu and the others wouldn't bring this up in front of the little princess for no reason.
[Gosh, that's so gross...]
Xiao Chuchu heard this and felt dizzy.
But that wasn't important. There had been too many system notifications about combat prowess and physical information just now, and she was still anxious to review them.
[Oh no, another person with high blood pressure.]
[Wow, this Xiximu has a combat prowess of 93, very high, but he can only utilize 85% of it now.]
[He actually has post-war PTSD, post-traumatic stress disorder, a psychological illness after war. He sometimes experiences auditory hallucinations, mental tension, insomnia... He only feels better when he's in the military camp, surrounded by his comrades.]
Xiao Yunzhou listened in bewilderment, what disease was this? He had never heard of it before.
[Oh my, so many injuries, not just physical but also psychological.]
[Whether it's our Jing Country or the grasslands, those who have served in the military for over five years and been on real battlefields and fought have some old injuries and ailments.]
Xiao Chuchu possessed the skill to check combat prowess.
But there was a daily limit, and she couldn't check too many people.
After checking several grassland people, she was prompted by the system that she could only purchase new checks with points.
[This is so frustrating. Should I bite the bullet and use points to exchange for the combat prowess of the remaining four people?]
[I want to see the physical conditions of the remaining four grassland people.]
But when Xiao Yunzhou heard this, he stood up abruptly in alarm.
The needlework in Liu Chaniang's hands suddenly stopped, her face filled with worry.
The little princess wanted to exchange points...
Those points must be some kind of celestial power!
She was so young, her body not yet fully developed. What if excessive use of celestial power caused irreversible damage?
"Earlier, Your Majesty said you brought me to comfort the soldiers, but I feel guilty for not having done anything," Liu Chaniang didn't want her young daughter to bear so much.
Even if it meant revealing to the emperor that she could hear her daughter's thoughts, she had no choice!
As long as the little princess was alright.
"Even that chicken roll wasn't really something I brought for the soldiers."
"I feel like I should do something."
"But I really don't have the strength to get up."
Liu Chaniang pondered, then frowned and rubbed her waist and legs, looking listless.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Xiao Yunzhou was alarmed and quickly approached her.
[Oh no, what's wrong with my mother? I was busy checking these people's combat prowess. Oh well, maybe I should exchange for one check to see my mother's condition~]
Xiao Chuchu became anxious.
Liu Chaniang quickly said, "I'm fine, maybe it's because I sat in the carriage for most of the day without proper rest, then stood for half an hour. I'm a bit tired."
Thinking for a moment, Liu Chaniang looked thoughtfully at Xiao Yunzhou, "I feel that just half a day in the carriage has made my back and waist ache and feel very uncomfortable. The soldiers train hard every day, in wind and rain, surely enduring much more hardship."
"Would it be possible to invite doctors to give free consultations to the soldiers?"
[Ah!] Xiao Chuchu's eyes lit up.
Xiao Yunzhou heard this and slapped his thigh, "What a great idea, Liu Chaniang! You're so clever."
[Oh, this way I won't need to spend points to check the remaining combat prowess.]
[I'll leave everyone's health to the doctors then~]
Xiao Chuchu breathed a sigh of relief.
Otherwise, dealing with matters of life and death would put too much pressure on her.
[My mother is so amazing.]
Xiao Yunzhou nodded repeatedly, full of praise for Liu Chaniang's idea, "You're right, women are indeed more attentive to details. I certainly brought the right person when I brought you to comfort the soldiers."
"Come here! Call the Minister of War and that damned censor!"
In just a few minutes, Xiao Yunzhou was scolding people outside the tent.
"Go find nearby doctors, and send a fast horse to the palace to summon Chief Physician Hu of the Imperial Medical Academy. Organize a medical examination for the army."
"Nonsense, I know there are military doctors here! But there's only one military doctor, how long would it take to examine a thousand soldiers?"
[Oh dear, usually people only go to see the military doctor when they feel unwell.]
[But often by the time symptoms appear, the illness is already quite serious.]
[And some people are reluctant to seek medical attention, thinking they can just endure it, which often means missing the best treatment window.]
On this matter, Xiao Chuchu agreed with her mother and father.
[My mother is right. This is just like modern regular health checkups~ Providing free annual checkups is very necessary.]
Health checkups!
Xiao Yunzhou, in the middle of scolding the Minister of War, suddenly grabbed onto his daughter's key phrase.
Annual health checkups.
Yes, that's right, just like that.
Xiao Yunzhou felt more confident now. "Don't waste time with words. How could I possibly harm you? Ignoring an illness only leads to small problems spreading from the surface to the internal organs, causing major issues."
Even the celestial realm had health check-ups, let alone his small Jing Country.
"Tonight, we'll conduct free medical examinations. Everyone must participate."
"I and Consort Liu have come here to ensure the best protection for every soldier of Jing Country!"
Within an hour, these words spread throughout the entire military camp.
Both the Jing soldiers and people like Duoti felt somewhat bewildered.
They were skeptical.
Even Hou Yuchuan opposed it, saying, "We have wrestling matches tomorrow. Why are we doing medical examinations now? We have our own military doctors. Why do we need outside physicians, let alone involve the Imperial Academy of Medicine?"
"Those with serious illnesses or disabilities are already resting at home. If the Imperial Academy of Medicine wants to help, they should visit our veterans' homes," Hou Yuchuan suggested, pulling the Minister of War aside.
Ah, the Emperor was too young. He didn't understand that those remaining in the military camp were all healthy.
The truly injured or disabled had long since retired from military service and returned home with their ailments.
The imperial physicians should be visiting their homes!
Hou Yuchuan felt the Emperor was being naive.
However... half a day later.
Chief Physician Hu of the Imperial Medical Academy, who arrived with the prince's carriage, paid his respects to the Emperor and Consort Liu before immediately beginning to examine the pulses of the camp's elite soldiers.
His diagnoses were spot on.
"Is your left shoulder stiff and numb?" This was to one of Zhao Qianwei's soldiers.
The man's face twitched in surprise. "How... how did you know?"
"Have you ever been shot by an arrow?" This was to Ba Tu.
Ba Tu's jaw dropped. "That was years ago. You can still tell?"
"Do you often get headaches and suffer from insomnia when you leave the camp?" This was to the grasslands warrior with post-war PTSD.
This time, not only was the person in question stunned, but even leaders like Duoti, Hou Yuchuan, and Zhao Qianwei were shocked.
Watching their astonished expressions, Chief Physician Hu's mind was also in turmoil.
The Emperor's medical skills were truly exceptional!
Who on earth had taught the Emperor?
To have trained the Emperor to such a high level of medical expertise, that master must be incredibly skilled!
