Chapter 100 I Want to Strangle Her
“You…” Yu Chi Rui was so choked up that he couldn’t help but glare, his approachable and gentle demeanor vanishing instantly.
“I’m sorry, but I cannot do that.” Gu Simo didn’t even give him a chance to speak. She turned to Yu Chisheng, kowtowed respectfully, and then said righteously, “Your Majesty, although Hua Xiang Pavilion is just a minor sect in the martial arts world, since its establishment, Hua Xiang Pavilion has always adhered to the original intention of ‘taking it as its responsibility to save all living beings.’ The disciples of Hua Xiang Pavilion abide by the rules of the pavilion and never flaunt or show off their medical skills.”
"The reason why I was able to treat His Highness Prince Cheng's leg ailment and facial injury is because His Highness has guarded the frontier for many years. His loyalty to the emperor and his love for the country are truly moving. When the Pavilion Master heard that His Highness was seeking medical treatment everywhere, he ordered me to come down the mountain to treat him."
“It is understandable that Your Majesty doubts my identity. I have my own way of proving my identity. However, if Your Majesty insists that I recount the process of treating His Highness Prince Cheng, this is a matter of Huaxiang Pavilion’s secrets, and I am afraid I cannot do so.”
Yu Chisheng initially questioned her identity because he thought she was too young. But after listening to her words, he felt that she spoke calmly and logically, and that her composure alone was beyond the reach of ordinary people.
As for her identity and medical skills...
Upon careful consideration, there was no need to rush to verify it. As the saying goes, true gold fears no fire, and besides, he believed that even if Prince Cheng were bold enough to deceive the emperor, he would have hired a proper physician, not a young woman to trick him.
In contrast, Consort Lan, the Crown Prince, and the Crown Princess...
The hostility they showed towards this woman was far too great, with each of them speaking in harsh and stern tones!
"Please rise, Physician Hua." He raised his hand to Gu Simo and said with a gentle expression, "I know you came to the palace not to seek credit, but you have made a great contribution by helping Prince Cheng recover. Prince Cheng is my son, and your kindness to Prince Cheng is also your kindness to me. I can grant you one wish as a reward for your treatment of Prince Cheng."
Gu Simo was about to express her gratitude.
Suddenly, a eunuch rushed in to report, "Your Majesty, Consort Yan is showing signs of miscarriage. The imperial physician has already examined her at Jinfu Palace and said that it is likely that Consort Yan will not be able to save this pregnancy!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Chisheng's expression darkened, and he turned and headed towards Jinfu Palace—
But after taking two steps, he suddenly stopped and turned back to Gu Simo, saying, "Divine Physician Hua, come with me to Jinfu Palace!"
Gu Simo understood perfectly well that the Emperor was using this opportunity to test her!
"Yes, Your Majesty." She didn't refuse and quickly followed Yuchi Sheng's steps.
in the hall.
Ye Shishu and Yuchi Ling stood side by side, one beautiful and charming, the other handsome and unparalleled. Their perfect match was beyond description.
Opposite them were Consort Lan, Yuchi Rui, and Zhu Huaning.
Although Consort Lan and Zhu Huaning maintained their smiles, without Yu Chisheng present, Yu Chirui could no longer hide the jealousy and hatred in his eyes.
“Your Majesty, besides being grateful to Physician Hua, I also want to thank Your Majesty for my recovery.” Yu Chi Ling walked up to him, rarely leaving his lips to reveal a set of dazzling white teeth. “Your Majesty went to Wanfu Temple to pray for my recovery a while ago. I suppose the gods and Buddhas were moved by Your Majesty’s brotherly affection, which is why I recovered so quickly.”
"Your injury is fake?" Yu Chi Rui asked through gritted teeth, his voice loud enough for the two of them to hear.
It's called a questioning, but it's actually an assertion!
Yu Chi Ling laughed and said in a voice that only they could hear, "Your Majesty is still as impatient as ever. A crown prince of a country, apart from being stupid, he has no other redeeming qualities. Isn't that laughable?"
As he whispered his sarcasm, Yu Chi Rui's face turned ashen, becoming as ugly as could be. Unable to contain his anger, he blurted out in a low growl, "Yu Chi Ling! You're asking for death!"
His roar made Consort Lan and Zhu Huaning turn pale.
The palace servants waiting nearby also seemed startled, looking at Yuchi Rui with nervous unease.
Seeing this, Ye Shishu quickly ran over and took Yuchi Ling's arm, pulling him away from Yuchi Rui several steps. Then, she looked at Consort Lan with a wronged expression, "Mother, why is the Crown Prince so fierce? Don't you treat the Crown Prince as your own son? Why don't you discipline him properly? He is the Crown Prince, that's true, but he is also an elder brother. Elder brothers should love and care for their younger brothers and sisters. How can he yell at his younger brothers and sisters without explanation?"
Consort Lan almost fainted from the shock!
She had always thought that Shu Wenjing was shy, but today she realized that this bitch's words were like soft knives cutting into her flesh, making her want to strangle her!
Zhu Huaning quickly stepped forward, forcing a smile, and said, "Sister-in-law, what are you saying? The Crown Prince was just joking with my second brother! The two brothers have been like this since they were little, please don't take it to heart!"
Ye Shishu pouted, seemingly not understanding at all, and muttered to herself, "How can an older brother be so inconsiderate as to joke around with his younger siblings?"
"You!" Yu Chi Rui clenched his fists, wanting to strangle her even more than Consort Lan!
The matter of Cheng Wangjian had already severely provoked him, making it difficult for him to calm down. He never expected that Ye Shishu, that bitch, would continue to target them with sarcastic remarks!
Seeing that Consort Lan and Yuchi Rui were both furious, Zhu Huaning, being a woman herself, could easily tell that Ye Shishu was doing it on purpose.
She rationally changed the subject, speaking to Consort Lan, "Your Highness, let's go to Jinfu Palace to see Consort Yan instead."
Consort Lan received her hint, glared at Yu Chi Ling and Ye Shi Shu, and left without looking back, dragging her gorgeous clothes.
Zhu Huaning then gave Yu Chi Rui a meaningful look.
The couple then followed Consort Lan.
"Your Highness, shall we go?" Ye Shishu dropped her affected manner and asked with some concern. She wasn't worried about Consort Yan's miscarriage; she was worried about her second sister-in-law's safety.
The Emperor already harbored suspicions about the identity of her second sister-in-law. If the imperial heir in Consort Yan's womb were not preserved, the Emperor would surely vent his anger on her second sister-in-law!
“No need.” Yu Chi Ling put his arm around her waist and said in a low voice, “This is her best chance to prove herself.”
His calm demeanor left Ye Shishu with no room for further comment.
About half an hour later, Qi Sui arrived before them with a beaming smile, praising, "Your Highness, Your Highness, Physician Hua is truly amazing! The imperial physicians all said that Consort Yan's unborn child was in grave danger, but Physician Hua actually saved the child for Consort Yan! His Majesty is overjoyed and has decreed that Physician Hua will be richly rewarded!"
