With her father and brother banished, and her engagement to the marquisate broken, everyone eagerly awaited to see Xiao Jiuyue become a laughingstock.
Facing her frail grandmother, her beauti...
Chapter 653 Do I Look Like a Fool to You?
The news of the Queen's free medical consultation spread like wildfire to every corner of Shengjing.
The women and girls who had been treated by the queen praised her again and again, especially after they took the medicine and became better, and everyone's praise for the queen became even higher and higher.
"Sister, how did you convince my mother?" When Xiao Tingwu learned that she could study medicine, she excitedly went to the palace immediately and couldn't wait to find Xiao Jiuyue to share the good news.
"Of course, you are weak now. If you get married early, I'm afraid your body won't be able to bear it." Xiao Jiuyue knew very well what Third Aunt cared about.
Whenever she mentioned this, Third Aunt would worry about whether something would happen to Xiao Tingwu if he had a biological child.
If it were just for the sake of face, he would have married Xiao Tingwu off early. What if her body couldn't bear it and two people died?
Third Aunt Nian immediately agreed: "Study medicine, you have to study medicine!"
When Xiao Jiuyue thinks back on it now, she still finds it quite interesting. It is true that Third Aunt loves her daughter.
"Thank you, sister." Xiao Tingwu thanked her solemnly, and then said, "Sister, I have another good news to tell you. Nowadays, rumors are all saying that the queen is virtuous!"
"Everyone praises the Queen as a hero who is as brave as any man!"
"She also praised the Queen's medical skills and her miraculous healing skills."
Xiao Tingwu was halfway through praising her when Jun Qin arrived. When the free clinic for women started last time, Jun Qin had her period and it was inconvenient for her to go out, so she stayed in the palace. However, Jun Qin knew very well about the hustle and bustle outside the palace.
Jun Qin felt better and immediately said, "Third sister-in-law, I want to learn medicine too!"
"Hmm?" Xiao Jiuyue looked at Jun Qin beside her and asked with a smile, "Why are you joining in the fun? Everyone, all of a sudden, is interested in studying medicine?"
Xiao Jiuyue looked at the two of them and saw that they were only in junior high school, and suddenly wanted to treat them?
"Third sister-in-law, I didn't know before that studying medicine could allow you to treat women's illnesses!"
Jun Qin tilted her head and said, "I received a letter from my mother. After taking the medicine prescribed by my third sister-in-law, she had a very comfortable winter last year. And this spring, even with so much rain, her legs didn't hurt!"
"Moreover, Third Sister-in-law, as the queen, you also treat ordinary people. This is something worth learning." Jun Qin looked at Xiao Jiuyue with eyes full of admiration.
"Sixth Prince, do you really want to study medicine? Then we will have a companion in the future, right?" Xiao Tingwu said with anticipation. When she lived with Jun Qin in her sister's house, she had a good relationship with Jun Qin.
Junqin is easy to get along with, not willful, and doesn't have the temper of a princess.
"With companionship, we can live in the women's clinic. Wouldn't that be a carefree and happy life?" Jun Qin was particularly excited when she thought of that possibility. She looked at Xiao Jiuyue eagerly and said, "Third sister-in-law."
Xiao Jiuyue spread her hands and said, "It's no use looking at me. Your brother is the one who makes the decision on this matter. Besides, Concubine Min has been looking for a husband for you."
"I don't want to get married." Jun Qin thought about this and rolled her eyes. "Third sister-in-law, Ting Wu can choose not to get married, so why can't I?"
"Tingwu is not in good health." Xiao Jiuyue explained with a smile.
Jun Qin said: "My health is not good either, I want to wait a few years before getting married."
After saying that, Jun Qin rushed to find the emperor. As soon as she walked out the door, Jun Qin fell back and said, "Why should I go to find my brother? When he leaves the court later, he will naturally come to find my third sister-in-law."
Xiao Jiuyue was talking to Xiao Tingwu about the girls' school when she saw Jun Qin coming back.
"Third sister-in-law, the emperor will be here soon, why should I bother to go against him!" Jun Qin said shamelessly: "Third sister-in-law, the jujube paste cake you made last time in the palace was especially delicious. Do you have any more?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Xiao Jiuyue looked at Donggui beside her.
Soon, Jun Qin and Xiao Tingwu had eaten and drunk their fill, and Jun Qin began to recite the medicinal properties with Xiao Tingwu.
"Oh, I have to memorize books even if I want to study medicine?" Jun Qin started to back off when she heard that she had to memorize books.
Xiao Tingwu said, "Of course, there's more to memorize than just this. However, if Sixth Prince wants to study medicine, he must learn these things."
Jun Qin's eyes flashed. No matter what he learned, at least he could have fun outside the palace every day. Let's give it a try!
When Jun Lie came back from court, he saw Xiao Tingwu and Jun Qin reciting their lessons in the courtyard while basking in the sun. He first went to check on his daughter before asking, "Yuer, what are they doing?"
"Qinqin also wants to study medicine." Xiao Jiuyue's voice fell, and Jun Lie said: "She just doesn't want to get married and wants to go out of the palace to play."
Jun Lie knows everything about his younger sister.
The fifth princess was pursuing love, and her heart was set on Jiang Yu. Now that she has finally married Jiang Yu, the fifth princess is no longer annoyed.
As for Jun Qin, she wanted to leave the palace all day long. She felt that staying in the palace of Concubine Min and the others was too boring, so she went back to the palace to accompany Xiao Jiuyue.
"You seem to know your sister quite well." Xiao Jiuyue chuckled softly, covering her mouth with her hands. "She's clearly stated that she wants to study medicine. You can handle this matter as you see fit."
"That's easy." Jun Lie looked at the Sixth Princess Jun Qin who came over with an expectant look on her face and said, "If you really want to study medicine, go find Concubine Min. If Concubine Min is willing, I will agree."
"Royal brother." Jun Qin looked at Xiao Jiuyue beside her for help. Xiao Jiuyue said in agreement: "Qinqin, Concubine Min is your biological mother. If you want to study medicine, you still have to listen to Concubine Min."
Jun Qin was depressed for a while, and left the palace to find Concubine Min the next day. Concubine Min naturally disagreed. Her daughter was finally getting married, so why did she learn medicine at this time?
"Do you think she can succeed in convincing them?" Xiao Jiuyue asked curiously. She didn't have much dealings with the concubines and the grand empress dowagers.
"Yes." Jun Lie shook the rattle in his hand to attract Little Star's attention and explained, "Sixth sister is used to acting like a spoiled child. In the end, Concubine Min will agree."
"I don't think so." Xiao Jiuyue shook her head in disapproval. "When Third Aunt found out Tingwu wanted to study medicine, she was strongly against it. Later, it was only after I explained Tingwu's health that she agreed. But Qinqin..."
"How about we take a gamble?" Jun Lie's eyes grew darker.
Xiao Jiuyue shook her head repeatedly and said, "No, only a fool would bet with you!"
"Do you think I'm a fool?" Sometimes she thought she was smart enough, but in front of Jun Lie, it was still not enough.
A flash of regret flashed across Jun Lie's eyes, and then he praised: "Yuer is the smartest woman in the world!"
On the third day, Jun Qin came to report the good news, "Third sister-in-law, my mother agreed to let me study medicine!"
"How did you convince Concubine He Min?" Xiao Jiuyue was extremely curious. Fortunately, she did not make a fool of herself and bet with Jun Lie.
