Chapter 422: A Fresh Flower Placed on Cow Dung
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
However, for anyone familiar with the Silly Second Prince, this was nothing out of the ordinary.
Indeed, while the Silly Second Prince had become more ruthless than before, refusing to be bullied, he remained the same fool, an undisputed one at that!
Many people sympathetically looked at Liu Shimei, who was actively trying to save someone. Some even shook their heads and whispered, “A fresh flower stuck in cow dung!”
Huangfu Lingyao knew how others would talk about him, but he did not care. If he had cared, he would have died of anger long ago. How could one maintain a charade for seven years?
Regardless of how others judged him, he had achieved his goal. He thought to himself, ‘I’ll make you regret trying to ruin my wife’s joyful occasion! Come at me again, and I’ll knock your teeth out!’
Yu Wanqinging’s chest hurt terribly from the kick, and she spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot.
Xiang’er’s face turned pale as she exclaimed, “Princess! Has your old injury recurred? I said we shouldn’t have come out. You insisted on coming, and now, what do we do?”
It was true; it hadn’t even been a month since she had almost been beaten to death by Huangfu Lingyao. Although she had been recuperating with the precious medicinal herbs compensated by the emperor, such a short time was not enough for a full recovery.
She should have been resting at home to heal her internal injuries, but when she heard that Liu Shimei had opened a medical hall, she felt a surge of unease.
So, she came out, hoping to find an opportunity to provoke a confrontation.
Opportunity had indeed presented itself, but who would have thought that she would encounter this wild Silly Second Prince!
Liu Shimei did not have the time to pay attention to the commotion around her, but since Princess Ping’an had been struck by King Dun Yu, someone had to step in to restore order.
Liang Wei, observing from the hall, was so close to going out and continuing the fight. He said, “Deserved it! Let no one bother with her; she’s asking for trouble coming here herself!”
Liang Xun, somewhat helpless, shook his head and said, “Grandfather, no matter what, she’s still Princess Ping’an. Do you really want to personally fight with a younger generation?”
“Hmph!” Liang Wei turned his head away.
Clearly, if it weren’t for the fact that it would be unseemly to fight a young girl two generations apart, he really wanted to take action!
Madam Wang, after all, was the elder in the family. Since the other party was a woman, it had to be her who stepped forward. She said, “Bring Princess Ping’an inside; there are plenty of doctors in Fusheng Pavilion. We’ll have a look at her.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the maidservant beside her went out.
No matter how unwilling Yu Wanqing was, her own life was at stake. After being persuaded by Xiang’er, she was lifted into the hall. Finally, the area outside the entrance to Fusheng Pavilion quieted down.
The attention of the crowd returned to Liu Shimei.
After finishing the acupuncture, Liu Shimei was in the process of preparing medicine. She said, “Shu Jun, I might have been infected with leprosy on my hands and body, so no one should touch me. Anything I’ve touched must be boiled in hot water before anyone else can handle it. I’m prescribing medicine now; I say, you write.”
“Yes, Master.” Shu Jun still had his usual poker face, but in his eyes as he looked at Liu Shimei, there was admiration and pride.
This kind of master was worth worshipping!
Just as they finished preparing the medicine, Huangfu Lingyao suddenly said, “Wife, this patient has woken up!”
Everyone looked over. Wasn’t he awake?
The patient, who had just been lying silently on the stretcher as if dead a moment ago, finally showed some signs of life!
“This is amazing! Doctor Liu is truly amazing!”
Liu Shimei held down the patient’s hand and said, “Don’t move for now. You’ll need to wait for another half hour before the needles can be removed. If you don’t want to die, listen to the doctor!”
Huangfu Lingyao looked anxious.. “Wife, why did you touch him? Didn’t you say this disease can be transmitted?”
