Chapter 494 Can it be cured?

"No matter how noble your status is, you still have to marry your beloved wife. My body is different from that of ordinary people, so if I have a wife in the future, I will definitely not take concubines like the Xiao family." Although Jun Lie did not say it explicitly, Xiao Jialing completely understood what he meant.

"Your Highness, don't worry. There are countless famous doctors in the world who can cure your hidden illness." Xiao Jialing did not answer, but politely declined.

"I wonder if Jialing has gained anything from coming to Qingfeng Temple this time. When can I attend Jialing's wedding?" Jun Lie changed the subject and started telling a story without waiting for Xiao Jialing to answer.

At a palace banquet in winter, a young man in the cold palace was almost frozen to death. It was a cute little dumpling who brought him a portion of date paste pastry.

Jun Lie didn't mention any names, but Xiao Jialing had a vague guess. Before she was six years old, Xiao Jiuyue's favorite snack was jujube paste cake. No matter when or where she went, she always carried this jujube paste cake with her.

"I believe that the girl must be kind-hearted and does not expect any reward from the young man." Xiao Jialing really did not expect that Jun Lie and Yue'er could have such a fate.

I used to think it was because my father had saved Jun Lie once, but now it seems that it may not be just because of this.

…

Unlike the back-and-forth testing between Xiao Jialing and Jun Lie in the carriage, in the carriage behind, the Sixth Princess and Xiao Jiuyue chatted all the way. The two had only just met today, but when they chatted, they were like family members.

When the Sixth Princess was in the palace, she knew few people and these were the only people around her every day. She needed to please the Empress Dowager and make her happy.

As for her mother, every time she saw her, she would wipe away her tears or remind her that she was an older sister and should take good care of her younger brother.

The maids around her flattered her at every turn, which was meaningless.

Chatting with Xiao Jiuyue is different now. Xiao Jiuyue is like an intimate older sister, an omnipotent older sister, and a knowledgeable older sister.

"Sister Xiao, does this waterfall really look like it's hanging halfway up the mountain? Wouldn't that be beautiful?"

"Is the sunrise from the top of the mountain different from the sunrise in the palace?"

"Hongdu actually has a lotus-picking banquet. I'm sure I'll win first place. I'm really good at picking lotus seeds!"

“…”

The Sixth Princess was chattering away, and she was particularly longing for what Xiao Jiuyue had said about Hongdu. Unfortunately, she might never have the chance to visit it in her lifetime.

When it was time to say goodbye, the Sixth Princess looked at Xiao Jiuyue reluctantly and said, "Sister Xiao, please come find me when you enter the palace. I live in Qiuhua Palace. I'll ask Chunmei to invite you when the time comes."

"Okay." Xiao Jiuyue responded with a smile, reminding the Sixth Princess how to rest her feet. At the same time, he told her how to decoct the medicine.

"Sister Xiao, remember to teach me that set of exercises next time." Before leaving, the Sixth Princess thought of this again and waved to Xiao Jiuyue, saying, "We'll see each other soon."

"Goodbye." Xiao Jiuyue waved, and the carriage slowly drove away. Jun Lie also got off the carriage and said deliberately: "Miss Xiao, in appreciation of your kindness today, I will treat you and your brother to dinner another day."

"It's just a trivial matter, don't bother with it." Xiao Jialing pursed his lips and thought: You just want to treat my sister to a meal.

"Yu'er, it's getting late. Hurry up and get on the carriage and go home. Your mother must be worried." Xiao Jialing urged Xiao Jiuyue to get on their carriage. After sending Xiao Jiuyue on the carriage, Xiao Jialing said goodbye to Jun Lie.

"Miss, this was given to me by Chunmei, the maidservant of the Sixth Princess." Donggui took out a silver ingot and handed it forward.

"Your Highness is quite generous." Xiao Jiuyue took a look and said, "You've worked hard carrying His Highness down the mountain. These are probably your hard work fees. Take them."

The Sixth Princess often accompanied the Queen Mother and was very much in her favor. In addition, her mother, Concubine Qi, lived a good life in the palace, so the Sixth Princess must have no shortage of money to spend.

"Then I'm lucky enough, the princess is so light." Donggui thought, holding the sixth princess is much lighter than carrying a wild boar.

"Not everyone can hold it." Xiao Jiuyue chuckled.

"Brother, who made you angry?"

Xiao Jiuyue looked at Jun Lie walking towards him with a dark face and couldn't help but ask.

"No." Xiao Jialing shook his head. He didn't ride his horse, but followed Xiao Jiuyue into the carriage and asked, "Yu'er, do you think the Third Prince's illness can be cured? I just rode in the same carriage with him, and even though he took the medicine in time, his neck and arms were covered in rashes."

"If he can't touch women, then won't he be able to get married in the future?" Xiao Jialing looked at Xiao Jiuyue and asked. He wanted to ask her if Jun Lie would not get a rash if he touched her, but he felt that this question was inappropriate.

"I've only heard of this disease, but never seen it." Xiao Jiuyue shook her head. She had seen such symptoms in novels before, but had never heard of it in real life.

"What about your master? You haven't heard of him either?" Xiao Jialing asked.

"Brother, are you very concerned about the Third Prince?" Xiao Jiuyue felt that Xiao Jialing was unusually concerned about this issue. She looked at Xiao Jialing suspiciously: "Yes, did the Third Prince tell you anything?"

"No, the Third Prince is on the same page as us, so he should at least show more concern for us." Xiao Jialing reminded him, "I think if someone like the Third Prince, who can never touch a woman, meets someone who can touch her without getting a rash, he would probably be eager to marry her home."

"Yuer, don't you think such words are not sincere at all?" Xiao Jialing asked meaningfully.

Xiao Jiuyue came to her senses as she listened. It seemed that Jun Lie had confronted Xiao Jialing. As for what they were talking about, that was unknown. She said, "I think a disease like this can definitely be cured. As for how to cure it, we need to find the right medicine for the right condition."

"The Third Prince is definitely not born unable to touch women, but he became unable to do so after the death of Concubine Rou. I guess it's due to psychological reasons." When Xiao Jiuyue heard the news, he guessed that the physical discomfort might not be serious.

"Yes, it would be great if it can be cured." Xiao Jialing nodded repeatedly. If it could be cured, he would definitely not bother his sister.

Xiao Jiuyue said, "I'll discuss this with Master when we get back. Master would definitely enjoy researching this disease, something he's never encountered before!"

"Yes, Doctor Xiao Wang is very good." Xiao Jialing nodded repeatedly. When they arrived at the front yard of the Xiao family, Xiao Jialing looked at Xiao Jiuyue who was heading to the backyard and said, "Yuer, remember to ask Doctor Xiao Wang if he can cure it."

Xiao Jiuyue couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother, you should tell mother the good news first."

"By the way, there is one more thing I want to discuss with you. You plan to marry Sister Cui, but what about the Cui family?" Xiao Jiuyue just remembered this and asked specifically.
