Guarded Widowhood for Three Years, Then Married a Prince with Twins

Su Muxi, though of humble origin and perceived ugliness, was pure-hearted and possessed exceptional medical skills.

She married the once-favored son of heaven and spent three years helping hi...

Chapter 98 An Unavoidable Promotion

The Second Prince is here?!

Upon hearing this, Su Muxi immediately became alert.

If she didn't know Ye Zeyu, she might only be puzzled by Ye Zerui's sudden visit, but not nervous, since this second prince had a very good reputation.

But now, besides being wary, she also felt a little scared.

She was afraid that the second prince might do something to harm her family.

Do you know why the Second Prince has come to see me?

Su Muxi did not go to the flower hall immediately, but first asked Zhong Bin about the reason.

The more problems you encounter, the more you should stay calm.

Since the Second Prince chose to come so early in the morning, he certainly wouldn't openly harm her or her family.

She was just a lowly female physician, and it was not worth the Second Prince personally targeting her.

Therefore, the Second Prince's ultimate purpose in coming here must be related to Ye Zeyu.

But then Zhong Bin said, "It seems they've come to ask Miss to treat the leg of someone in their household."

After saying that, he sincerely praised, "The Second Prince is truly humble and polite, and also very handsome. He has brought many gifts as well."

He's much better than Prince Yong'an.

However, Zhong Bin did not say the last sentence.

After all, it wasn't something a lowly servant like him could casually discuss.

Another point is that Miss is currently engaged to Prince Yong'an. If Prince Yong'an does end up becoming Miss's husband, then he will become her half-master. As a servant, even if the master is not good, it is not his place to talk about him.

However, compared to Qiao Ziming, Prince Yong'an is still quite good.

Su Muxi frowned and said to Zhong Bin and Bai Zhi in a serious voice, "I will only say this once. You must remember it. The Second Prince is not a good person. Don't be fooled by his appearance. If you can avoid him in the future, do so. If you really can't avoid him, be vigilant. Do you understand?"

Zhong Bin and Bai Zhi exchanged a glance, then nodded in unison.

Although I don't know why, whatever the young lady says goes!

After speaking, Su Muxi took a deep breath and slowly walked towards the flower hall.

We need her to treat someone's leg in our household.

She feared this was just a pretext, and that her real intention was to test her standing in Ye Zeyu's heart.

She hadn't asked in detail last time, but judging from Ye Zeyu's words, this second prince must be a "playful" person.

Since she's playful, she should be able to make the other person lose interest if she makes them feel bored.

In the main hall, Ye Zerui sat in the main seat, drinking tea, and occasionally chatted with Su Xing.

"Judge Su, I heard you want to leave the Imperial Hospital?"

Although Su Xing had a good impression of Ye Zerui, he was still somewhat clear about the power struggles within the imperial court.

Since Prince Yong'an specifically protected Xi'er last time, it shows that the relationship between Prince Yong'an and the Second Prince is not harmonious.

Moreover, no matter how kind the Second Prince is, he would never condescend to personally invite Xi'er to his residence to treat a servant.

Therefore, the Second Prince's sudden visit this time is likely ill-intentioned, and we should be careful in dealing with it.

Upon hearing the other party mention leaving the Imperial Hospital, Su Xing perked up even more.

"Yes, I am getting old and want to spend more time with my family."

Ye Zerui smiled in relief, "So that's how it is. I thought that Imperial Physician Su wanted to leave the Imperial Hospital because the Empress Dowager punished you by making you kneel on broken porcelain pieces for that girl Chang Le last time, and felt that it was dangerous to work in the palace."

Upon hearing this, Su Xing immediately knelt down.

Although the wound had begun to heal, such a large movement still aggravated it, causing him to wince in pain.

However, compared to the pain in his knee, the matter of leaving the Imperial Hospital needed to be explained as soon as possible.

If you were to label him as harboring resentment towards the Empress, he would likely lose his head.

"Your Highness, you are wise. My only reason for leaving the Imperial Hospital is to spend more time with my daughter. I have no other intentions whatsoever!"

Ye Zerui personally stepped forward to help Su Xing up, saying, "What is the Imperial Physician Su doing? I was just speaking casually, there's no need to be so nervous."

Su Xing's eyes showed fear, and he was about to express his opinion again when Ye Zerui said, "Since Imperial Physician Su is not afraid of the dangers of serving in the palace, then let Imperial Physician Su take over the position of Director of the Imperial Medical Academy!"

Seeing that Su Xing was about to refuse, Ye Zerui spoke first, saying, "President Su, please don't refuse. This is also my way of expressing my apology to President Su."

"Chang Le lost her parents at a young age, and the Empress Dowager treated her like her own daughter. That day, the Empress Dowager was unaware that Chang Le had mistakenly taken the old ginseng that Imperial Physician Su had given to the Empress Dowager. In a moment of panic, she misunderstood Imperial Physician Su."

"Don't worry, Imperial Physician Su. Once you're in the position of Imperial Physician, I will arrange for a capable Imperial Physician to assist you in managing the Imperial Medical Academy. This way, you can have more time to spend with your family and continue to study medicine at the Imperial Medical Academy. What do you think?"

Su Xing knew he couldn't refuse.

After all, the Second Prince had said from the beginning that this was a way for him to express his apology.

If he refuses, it would be considered ungrateful, and it could also indicate that he harbors resentment towards the Empress.

So Su Xing could only bow and express his gratitude.

"Your Highness, I thank you greatly!"

Ye Zerui patted Su Xing on the shoulder, gesturing for him to sit down and talk.

However, just as Su Xing sat down, Ye Zerui said, "It won't be long before your daughter marries Prince Yong'an. After the wedding, even if Imperial Physician Su wants to spend more time with his family, he probably won't be able to. So, while your daughter is still married, Imperial Physician Su should spend more time with her."

Although they were just ordinary words, for some reason, Su Xing suddenly broke out in a cold sweat on his back.
