Chapter 204 Actively Please
Qiuyue didn't dare to apply the medicine, and analyzed carefully: "It seems a bit strange that you are looking for it now."
"You should pretend that you searched all night and only found the Prince Consort today after much difficulty, and that you already know about Jin Mudan's accident."
"And you must bring the imperial physician with you, so as to demonstrate your sincerity."
Chu Qinghe frowned. Isn't this a disguised way of trying to please Mo Lingchen?
She even has to pretend to care about that bitch. When has she ever done anything so humiliating? She feels so aggrieved.
But when she thought of Mo Lingchen's outstanding face, his profound knowledge and talent, as well as his gentleness and humor when they first met, she couldn't help blushing.
After struggling for a while, Chu Qinghe seemed to have made up his mind: "Qiuyue, go get the imperial physician, get the best one."
"That's perfect. This princess also wants to know if there's any chance that bitch is still alive."
"If the heavenly talents and earthly treasures are sent over and she is really saved, wouldn't this princess lose more than she gains?"
"If she really can't survive, then this princess will reluctantly use her."
Qiuyue replied respectfully: "Yes, I will go and invite you right away."
Chu Qinghe dressed very simply and brought a very precious century-old ginseng.
The carriage stopped at the gate of the courtyard. The person driving it was a palace guard. Hu Zi was a little nervous and didn't dare to step forward to stop it.
Immediately afterwards, a woman dressed as a palace maid got off the carriage, put down her footstool and helped Chu Qinghe get off the carriage.
When Hu Zi saw such a scene, he immediately asked Shi Tou to go in and report the news.
"Excuse me, distinguished guest, who are you? Are you here to see my wife?" Hu Zi stepped forward and asked in a polite tone.
Qiuyue scolded him harshly: "How dare you! You won't kneel down when you see the princess?"
Hu Zi's face changed, his legs subconsciously softened, and he knelt down and kowtowed.
After all, he was born a beggar, and he was young. He had never seen important people or big scenes, so this reaction was normal.
Chu Qinghe didn't even look at him, just walked around and entered the yard.
When Su Yujiao heard that a distinguished guest had arrived and just came out of the ward, she saw that it was Chu Qinghe and became instantly excited.
"What are you here for?"
"Who asked you to come? Get out. You are not welcome here."
"How dare you!" Qiuyue scolded, and the guard drew his sword.
When Lu Ziqian heard the noise, he immediately came out to stand in front of Su Yujiao.
"So it's the princess. I've met the princess."
Lu Ziqian only saluted verbally, but actually he stood in front of Su Yujiao without moving.
He was a powerful general, so he didn't have to kneel when meeting the princess, but he still had to bow slightly.
However, in the face of his rudeness, Qiuyue and the princess's sword-wielding guards did not dare to make any accusations.
"I wonder what can I do for you, Princess?"
Chu Qinghe looked at Lu Ziqian with a haughty look on her face, obviously dissatisfied with his arrogant attitude.
"Where is the Prince Consort? Is he here?"
"I heard that Miss Mudan was hit by a carriage, so I brought the imperial physician here to see if there's anything I can do to help."
Su Yujiao glared at her, her eyes brimming with hatred: "Stop being so hypocritical!"
"Don't think you can cover up your guilt by pretending to be innocent."
Chu Qinghe frowned: "This princess doesn't understand what the county lady is saying."
"If you have no evidence, the county lady had better think twice before speaking."
"Today, for General Lu's sake, I will not argue with you."
"Where is the prince consort? Lead the way." Chu Qinghe looked arrogant and spoke in a commanding tone.
Lu Ziqian said: "Shitou, lead the way for the princess."
He forcibly dragged Su Yujiao back to the room. He was afraid that she would do something impulsive in the excitement, which would be disastrous.
Chu Qinghe stood in front of the ward door, looking at Mo Lingchen lying on the bed holding Jin Mudan's hand in a daze, and was so jealous that she almost collapsed.
Qiuyue looked at Chu Qinghe's jealous and twisted expression and whispered a reminder: "Princess, you don't need to bother with a dead person."
Chu Qinghe suppressed his anger and calmed down before walking in.
"Prince Consort, you are really here."
"I heard about Miss Mudan's incident. I didn't expect her to be injured so seriously."
"Mr. Qi, could you please diagnose Miss Mudan?"
Old Qi was the master of Imperial Physician Zhou. Before he retired, he was also the head of the Imperial Medical Bureau. He was very experienced, so his medical skills were naturally better than Imperial Physician Zhou's.
Chu Qinghe was able to invite even Master Qi, which shows how favored she is.
Mo Lingchen hid the murderous intent in his eyes and tried his best to control his urge to kill in public.
If he wasn't afraid of bringing trouble to his family, he would have wanted to cut Chu Qinghe into pieces.
Mo Lingchen supported himself on the edge of the bed with both hands, and stood up stiffly. He looked at Chu Qinghe and said in a hoarse voice, "The princess is thoughtful."
"Mr. Qi, please come this way."
Chu Qinghe breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Mo Lingchen's attitude was relatively normal.
She thought he would be angry and go crazy, but she didn't expect that he would still save face for her in front of outsiders.
Mo Lingchen took a step, his head feeling a little dizzy. Chu Qinghe immediately stepped forward to support him and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
Mo Lingchen shook off her hand, his voice still steady: "Princess, don't worry."
The man's movements were so small that outsiders couldn't see it, but Chu Qinghe could clearly feel his resistance. He didn't want to be touched by her.
Chu Qinghe felt aggrieved, but she also knew that his reaction was normal.
It's impossible that she had just killed Jin Mudan and he was unusually gentle and considerate to her. That would be scary.
After Mr. Qi diagnosed Jin Mudan, he shook his head regretfully.
"It's better to prepare for the funeral early."
"Her current condition is no different from that of a dead person."
"No matter how carefully we take care of her, her body will gradually wither and decay. This kind of persistence is meaningless and will only add to the sadness."
"Let her rest in peace as soon as possible."
Chu Qinghe was secretly delighted and couldn't help asking, "Master Qi, is Miss Mudan really unable to wake up?"
"Even if I use all the treasures and elixirs, it won't work?"
The old man shook his head: "No panacea will work. Unless there really are gods in this world, otherwise... there is no way this girl will wake up."
Chu Qinghe breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he hypocritically took out the precious hundred-year-old ginseng.
"Master Qi, I heard that century-old ginseng can cure all diseases. This princess specially brought it here today. Can you see if it can help Miss Peony?"
The old man waved his hands, seeming a little tired and not wanting to waste too much time talking.
"It's useless. Nothing is useful. Just stop bothering."
"Such precious medicinal materials should be left to those in need."
"I'm old, and I'm a little weak..."
Chu Qinghe immediately ordered the guards to send Mr. Qi back to rest.
Qiuyue also left tactfully, leaving space for the princess and her husband.
"Prince Consort, you've heard what Elder Qi said. Why don't you just forget about it and let Miss Mudan rest in peace as soon as possible?"
