Chapter 122: Moving away and Non-physical violence
Housekeeper Cao looks so poor and helpless, but… …
Lin Chujiu was still unmoved, and she even said: “Also, go to Lin Fu and tell to my four maidservants that I was injured and I need to them to take care of me.” Lin Chujiu ask for those maidservants not because she trusts them, but because in this place, she was familiar with only those four people.
And regardless of what their real purpose in staying by her side, Lin Chujiu need their attentive care the most at this time.
Lin Chujiu said that she will personally arrange everything. Housekeeper Cao has no right to stop her, so he just feebly sighed and said: “Wangfei, this subordinate will report this matter to Wangye. Please let me report to Wangye first and hear his decision.”
“Ok, I’ll give you one hour. After one hour, I’m going to leave this Jing Tian Courtyard.” No matter what Xiao Tianyao’s decision is, Lin Chujiu will leave this place. Human’s desire is infinite. No matter what she does, she cannot meet Xiao Tianyao’s satisfaction. If that is the case, then why would she let herself continue to suffer?
Housekeeper Cao has no other choice, so he immediately runs to Xiao Tianyao’s place. Then, he reported what Lin Chujiu had said and asked for his decision.
After thinking for a long while, Xiao Tianyao only said: “Wangfei, how is her mood?”
“Quite … … usual.” Housekeeper Cao also thinks for a long while, but he can only come up with this word.
There is no joy, nor anger. So, should he call it as usual?
Or unusual?
She was slander, and she almost died. It’s not easy to forget those events, right?
So it means, this is simply her becoming moody.
Xiao Tianyao has always believed that Lin Chujiu’s calmness is wrong. Especially on that day when she’s finding an evidence. Xiao Tianyao thought that Lin Chujiu was only physically unfit that’s why she didn’t get emotional, but now it seems… …
She’s simply using non-physical violence.
“So, what do you want?” Xiao Tianyao squinted his eyes and muttered, “Benwang should care about you whether you’re calm or indifferent? And also even when you’re being unreasonable?”
Xiao Tianyao’s voice is not loud, but because Housekeeper Cao is close to his side. He was able to hear Xiao Tianyao’s words to himself. So, he couldn’t help but think inside his mind: Wangye, yes, you should ah. Because if not, Wangfei will make a scene and cry out all day while complaining about her grievances. Which is also not good!
Xiao Tianyao is a proud man, so he didn’t stop Lin Chujiu from leaving. And he did not only sent back Housekeeper Cao to help her but also told him to arrange for a doctor to take care of her.
“Wangye, the outsiders know that Divine Doctor Mo is curing Wangfei’s disease. So, if we call for another doctor, wouldn’t it sound strange?” Housekeeper Cao is worried about Lin Chujiu, but he is more worried about Xiao Tianyao’s reputation.
“Just do as I said.” Lin Xiang had seen Lin Chujiu, but her condition stayed concealed.
With this, Housekeeper Cao no longer said anything, but… …
Lin Chujiu rejected the idea of having a personal doctor: “Your so proud ah? I am also proud to be a doctor! So I don’t need another doctor!”
Because of this, Housekeeper Cao went to find Xiao Tianyao again and convey Lin Chujiu’s words.
“If she’s ungrateful, then forget it.” Xiao Tianyao felt unhappy. He felt like Lin Chujiu is relying to much on the injustice she experiences to retreat.
Sweat……
Housekeeper Cao wiped his sweat and didn’t dare to say a word.
To be honest, he can’t understand why his two masters are weirder than before. And it’s really hard to get caught in their fight ah!
Xiao Wangfu’s security is tight from inside and out. But if the informant was already inside, they wouldn’t be able to stop it. So, when the emperor finished dealing with Third Prince’s case, he asks what happened to the Xiao Wangfu.
And when the emperor learned that nothing bad happened to Xiao Tianyao, he got angry: “You let him escape death? Hmmp, he is surely very lucky ah!” He used drastic means to distract Xiao Tianyao’s attention, but he still falls short in his plans. So to say that he’s not angry, he’s simply deluding himself.
Imperial Doctor Qin Yuan immediately crouched on the ground and said with his trembling voice: “This subordinate is incompetent. Huangshang, please punish this incompetent one.”
“This matter has nothing to do with you. So, stop it!” Although the emperor is angry, he still didn’t lose his mind.
“Thank your highness for your kindness.” Imperial Doctor Qin Yuan said, but he didn’t get up. Instead, he continued to report: “Huangshang, this subordinate received a news. But, this subordinate found it strange. Because they said that it was Xiao Wangfei who saves Xiao Wangye’s life.”
This type of conversation is also a skill. After all, if Imperial Doctor Qin Yuan just directly mention Lin Chujiu. The emperor will think that his skills are getting rough. So with this, the emperor didn’t blame and just also find it strange.
After hearing it, the emperor’s face become pale: “Xiao Wangfei? Lin Xiang’s daughter?”
“Yes, exactly.” Imperial Doctor Qin Yuan is not afraid of Lin Xiang, so he didn’t hesitate to answer.
He and Lin Xiang were the emperor’s henchmen, so the two of them are… … always together.
The Emperor coldly hum and ambiguously said: “Lin Xiang had really raised a good daughter ah.”
After discovering what happened, the emperor didn’t say much and just wave his hand before he left. Leaving Imperial Doctor Qin Yuan all alone.
Imperial Doctor Qin Yuan was still kneeling, but suddenly a eunuch came and shouted: “Imperial Doctor Qin Yuan, Imperial Doctor Qin Yuan, hurry, Third Prince’s sickness attacked again!”
“What? Third Prince sickness attacked again?” This is only the third day, but it happened again?
“Yes, hurry, hurry, the emperor is waiting for you.” The eunuch said and drag Imperial Doctor Qin Yuan.
Imperial Doctor Qin Yuan‘s medical skill is extraordinary. But, he couldn’t find a cure for the Third Prince. He can only stabilize his condition, so he won’t be in too much pain.
The plan to assassinate Xiao Tianyao failed again. But his beloved son keeps suffering again and again. So, the emperor’s mood turns bad and shouted: “Zhen will give you one month to cure Third Prince’s disease. If you failed, Zhen will take your life.”
“This subordinate will do his best.” Imperial Doctor Qin Yuan‘s face becomes pale as a ghost.
The emperor might have said it due to his anger, but Imperial Doctor Qin Yuan didn’t dare to refute him.
Because if in case it was true, who will he ask for help ah?
Imperial Doctor Qin Yuan knows the Third Prince’s condition very well. Not to mention, he didn’t only took care of him for a month, but years ah. He knows his skills are not bad, but still, he walked all to way to his master’s place.
“Master, the emperor told to this apprentice that he will take my life after a month if this apprentice failed to cure the Third Prince’s disease. After learning this, this apprentice felt bad, so this apprentice went to ask master to save me.” Imperial Doctor Qin Yuan said while chocking from crying.
Imperial Doctor Qin Yuan is the crippled old man’s trusted apprentice, but when he heard his words, he couldn’t help but coldly smile and said: “Third Prince’s disease… … I cannot save you, but I know someone who can save you.”
After hearing this, Imperial Doctor Qin Yuan busily asks: “Master, please enlighten this apprentice.”
The crippled old man is not selling him off, but he still directly said: “Divine Doctor Mo’s medical skill is known to the whole world. So, if he can cure Xiao Wangye’s disease, then he can also cure the Third Prince’s disease, right? He has the dragon soul in his hands, so he might also have the other priceless herbs. So as long as you can make the emperor bring him inside the palace, you don’t need to worry about the Third Prince’s disease.”
When Imperial Doctor Qin Yuan heard these words, his eyes shine brightly. He knew his master doesn’t have a good heart, but still… …
