Chapter 122 It’s not your turn to teach me a lesson

Upon hearing this, Chu Hean immediately stepped back several steps, his face full of disgust.

Seeing that Jiang Qingyue had already walked out, Chu Hean called her.

"Is this the Third Miss's way of entertaining guests?"

Jiang Qingyue didn't stop walking, but still answered him.

"I have to rush to treat the common people. This is the duty entrusted to me by Concubine Wan. If Your Majesty wishes to visit, please do so another day."

Chu Hean's eyebrows furrowed, "I came to you specifically to talk about the epidemic."

Jiang Qingyue really stopped walking.

She turned around and looked at Chu Hean with a slightly gloomy look.

Chu Hean stood there, exuding a noble air, and stood out from the dying people outside the city.

Jiang Qingyue calmed herself down and said, "Your Highness, please follow me."

She entered the tent first, and before Chu Hean stepped forward, he glanced at Xie Lingyun's tent out of the corner of his eye.

It was a pity that Xie Lingyun was not there, otherwise he really wanted to see what expression Xie Lingyun had.

After entering the tent, Jiang Qingyue spoke first before Chu Hean could say anything.

"Your Highness, don't you know that more than forty people have been infected with the disease today? Now there are less than a hundred healthy people. If this continues, not only these people, but also us will die here."

Chu Hean's expression turned cold.

"Are you holding me accountable?"

"I dare not. I am just telling the truth."

She looked directly at Chu Hean, and her words became increasingly sharp.

"But Your Highness, if the plague cannot be controlled and so many people are allowed to die outside of Yanjing City, I will only feel bad for the Imperial Concubine. But Your Highness, I will feel bad for the entire court, and even more so, His Majesty."

Chu Hean's face was terribly gloomy.

"It's not your turn to teach this king a lesson."

Jiang Qingyue also lowered her tone.

"I just made it clear. I'm just telling the truth."

She raised her voice slightly.

"Your Highness, the herbs are almost gone, and the food is also insufficient. Your Highness, since you have the time to visit, it is better to think of a solution as soon as possible to avoid having to explain it later."

Chu Hean stared at her without blinking, and that look made him want to kill her.

"How could I not know that you are so sharp-tongued and powerful?"

Jiang Qingyue didn't say anything else, but Chu Hean left with a sour face.

She followed closely behind, but just as she walked out, Yang Shizong invited her to Xie Lingyun's tent.

Hearing that Zhao Cheng's wound had reopened, Jiang Qingyue bandaged it again.

But this time Xie Lingyun did not take the initiative to help, so Jiang Qingyue called Yang Shizong to help.

Xie Lingyun remained calm and just watched coldly from the side.

Xie Lingyun never said a word until she left.

Jiang Qingyue went to the medical tent again, took the pulse of the patients patiently, and selected a few people for acupuncture.

Everything was the same as before, nothing suspicious at all.

In the middle of the night, Yuxiao came to report that Anu wanted to speak.

"Go call the prince over and let him listen too."

When Jiang Qingyue passed by, the disgusting stench was indeed gone.

She stood under the carriage and waited for a while. When she saw Xie Lingyun coming, she got on the carriage.

Unlike before, the curtains were always open this time. Although it was dark, it was nothing for a martial artist.

Yuxiao followed at the back, looking at Anu's face with lingering fear, and was shocked.

In the daytime, the facial features were squeezed together by the pustules, but now those pustules have scabbed over. Although it still looks scary, it is much better than during the day.

With the help of dim candlelight, Jiang Qingyue gave him an acupuncture. Perhaps because of the medicine he had applied today, Anu didn't feel any pain.

"If you want me to help you with something, you have to pay me."

Anu opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but still no sound came out.

He gritted his teeth and could only nod heavily.

He knew he had to pay a reward, but although he had no money, what he held in his hands was much more precious than gold and silver.

After a moment, Jiang Qingyue put away the needle.

"What do you want to say? Go ahead."

Anu opened his mouth and actually made a sound.

Although his voice was hoarse, at least he could speak.

He said a name in a stiff tone: Zhang Ze.

Xie Lingyun's eyes and heart sank, and he stepped onto the carriage.

He didn't let Jiang Qingyue go down because he wanted her to be a witness.

After a while, Xie Lingyun finally got off the carriage. Before leaving, he said to Jiang Qingyue, "Save his life. I'm useful."

In fact, Jiang Qingyue knew what to do without Xie Lingyun telling her.

She ordered Yuxiao to bring a bowl of medicine and fed it to Anu personally.

The medicine tasted bitter, but Anu cherished it very much.

These days he could only drink two sips of water a day and was hanging on to his life. Today not only did his thirst get quenched, but it might also cure his plague.

Jiang Qingyue applied medicine to him during the day, and all the abscesses on his body healed.

She has great medical skills and will definitely be able to save herself.

"them……"

"Their fate is in your hands. If you want them to live, I will let them live. If you want them to die, they must die."

Jiang Qingyue's nonchalant tone suddenly struck Anu's heart.

"Let them die."

Jiang Qingyue put away her things and said, "Okay, you are a great contributor, I will listen to you."

After getting off the carriage, Yuxiao hurriedly followed.

"Miss, his illness..."

“It’s getting better.”

Yuxiao was delighted.

So fast?

Then these people will be saved.

The young lady's medical skills are indeed excellent.

But then Yu Xiao changed her mind and said worriedly, "Miss, he is from Beili and has a cruel nature. When you asked him those questions just now, he didn't hesitate at all and just wanted his companions killed. Miss, you should be careful of such a cold-blooded person."

Jiang Qingyue chuckled softly.

"No, he's not really cold-blooded and cruel. He was indeed patient at first because he cared about the friendship between his companions. But when I told him that it was those people who wanted his life and that it was his companions who abandoned him, he defected."

Jiang Qingyue turned to look at Yuxiao and said, "If I were Anu, I would make the same choice. After all, that prince came to Yanjing to collude with Concubine Wan, but he got sick with the plague before he could accomplish his plan. And among these people, the middleman Zhang Ze only recognized the Beili prince. Now that the city gates are closed and information is not flowing, Concubine Wan doesn't know that the Beili people are outside the city, so naturally she won't rescue them."

"If these Beili people survive, they will never let Anu go. But if they die, Anu will be the only witness, so he can live."

After saying this, she lowered her eyes and smiled.

"The prince of Beili died in the camp commanded by the Seventh Prince. I wonder how Concubine Wan will explain this to the Beili Kingdom..."

Yuxiao suddenly understood what was happening.

"Then isn't Anu in danger now?"

Jiang Qingyue glanced in the direction of Xie Lingyun's tent.

"Xie Lingyun won't let anything happen to him."
