King Ping's face suddenly turned green.

If this wasn't a woman, he would have had her beaten out long ago. He explained with a dark face, "Madam, these two were hired by Zhou'er to take care of you."

Song Ruqing was teasing Zhou with a smile, but she lost interest when she heard this: "No need, this is enough for now."

"Aunt, let Mr. Huang check your health." Xie Siheng's call brought Song Ruqing back to her senses.

"Xiaoheng? What's wrong with your face?!" The moment Song Ruqing saw Xie Siheng, an expression of surprise and shock appeared on his face.

With her and King Heping's keen eyesight, they could naturally tell that it was cut by a knife.

"It's okay. This is Doctor Huang from Medicine King Valley. Let him take a look at you."

Xie Siheng didn't want to talk about this topic and motioned Mr. Huang to help.

He didn't refuse and put his hand on Song Ruqing's wrist without waiting for her answer.

King Ping and his son waited anxiously for his diagnosis.

The time it took to drink a cup of tea seemed to stretch infinitely. After a long while, Mr. Huang finally spoke: "Qi and blood are blocked, caused by cold and congestion. Can you take a look at the wound?"

"Yes!" Prince Ping suppressed his inner anxiety and leaned over to lift the hem of Song Ruqing's dress.

Xie Siheng turned his face away to avoid suspicion, but Ji Changying and Zhou came closer out of curiosity.

Huang Lao took out a needle and pricked her leg: "How does it feel?"

Song Ruqing shook his head sadly: "No consciousness."

Old Huang frowned and changed an acupuncture point.

As soon as the needle was inserted, Song Ruqing's face turned pale: "It hurts!"

Old Huang's brows relaxed. "It can be cured! But I'm afraid it won't be possible to return to normal activities. At best, he can walk like a normal person, but he won't be able to run or jump."

This was a huge surprise for King Ping and his son.

"Can it really be cured? How? Just tell us and we'll do everything we can!"

"Yes, Doctor Huang, just tell me what the herbs are, and I'll get them for you!"

On the contrary, Song Ruqing herself was much calmer when she saw how excited the father and son were. "How long will the treatment take?"

Huang Lao pondered: "I'll treat you for about a year and see how you recover."

Zhongli Zhou clenched his fists fiercely: "Good! That's great!"

After looking for a long time, Ji Changying finally understood that this was not a personal guard.

This is clearly asking them to be caregivers!

"Mother, these two men are incredibly strong. One of them is as strong as three or five of your maids. Do you want to give it a try?"

Zhongli Zhou had a happy face and looked at Zhou with particularly kind eyes.

This time, Zhou understood: "So the princess they were talking about is you! I'm very strong!"

As she spoke, she reached out and easily picked up Song Ruqing and shook her: "Why are you so light? Is it because your family doesn't give you food?"

Zhongli Zhou and King Ping were stunned.

Song Ruqing was also stunned.

When the maids were taking care of her before, it seemed difficult for two of them to hold her, but I didn’t expect this person to be able to pick her up so easily?

Ji Changying didn't expect her mother to be so proactive.

Zhou placed Song Ruqing on a chair and looked at Prince Ping with dissatisfaction: "You are a grown man, but you can't even support your own wife. You are so stingy! You are not even as good as a man with a big mouth."

At least Zhang Dazui was plump because of her husband. If she hadn't walked so much along the way, she would still be plump now!

"What are you talking about! Who can't support his own wife?!" King Ping felt that his dignity was insulted.

Song Ruqing laughed out loud again at Zhou's amusement, and his eyes softened as he looked at Zhou: "You are really interesting, then let's go with her!"

Song Ruqing's words made the decision final.

"Wait!"

Ji Changying looked at Song Ruqing and said, "My mother didn't sign a contract to sell herself. She's not very good at taking care of people. She speaks directly and has simple ideas."

"Since you're interested in hiring her, I'd like to ask what you usually ask her to do and what her salary is like. We'll decide after we discuss it."

The smile on Prince Ping's face disappeared, and his eyes widened. "What do you mean? Are you still unwilling? Do you know who you are talking to?!"

Old Huang frowned and looked at Xie Siheng, signaling him with his eyes: You won’t help?

Xie Siheng shook his head slightly, signaling him to be patient.

Seeing him glaring at Ji Changying, Zhou immediately felt protective of her child: "Why are you glaring at me? What's wrong with you being so big-eyed? It's a waste for such a pretty girl to follow you! Humph, let's go! I don't care!"

Zhou pulled Ji Changying and turned away angrily.

This set of movements was so smooth and natural that before I could react, I had walked into the yard.

Mr. Huang was stunned.

Xie Siheng didn't expect Zhou to be angry. He opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.

King Ping didn't expect that he would be treated coldly in his own palace?

"Your Majesty, should we order someone to arrest them?"

The housekeeper didn't expect that the mother and daughter would be so ungrateful.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw his cousin's sharp eyes shooting at him.

He quickly shut his mouth and stepped aside.

"What are you catching? I don't want to deal with such an unreasonable person! You think I can't find anyone else!" King Ping reached out to slap the table, but hit nothing, and became even angrier.

Zhonglizhou muttered softly: "...If we could find it, it wouldn't have dragged on until now..."

Song Ruqing looked at them with amusement: "It's because you were too fierce and scared them! If they are not happy, then forget it."

"Madam! This is the true manliness of my husband! How can you say this to me for the sake of outsiders!" King Ping still felt a little wronged!

Xie Siheng coughed and said, "Uncle, Mr. Huang wants to go see the patient. Can you arrange for someone to take him to see him?"

Mr. Huang: ???

——

Zhou took Ji Changying and was watched by servants all the way to the gate of the palace, but no one stopped them.

Ji Changying thought that the prince was a nice person and didn't come to arrest them.

"Humph, I've noticed that none of these officials are good people! They look like they want to eat you up, and they still want me to take care of his wife. Dream on!"

Ji Changying was very happy to be protected by Zhou. Seeing her angry look, Ji Changying quickly comforted her: "Don't be angry anymore, how about I take you to eat something good?"

"Good stuff? What good stuff?" Zhou was indeed a little eager after hearing this.

On the way here just now, Ji Changying saw a stall selling mutton. There were not many people in other places, but there were people coming in and out of this stall intermittently.

Now that they had time, she pulled Zhou there without saying a word.

In a small alley off the main street, there is a small and cramped shop with a banner hanging in front of the door that says "Mutton Soup".

After crossing the short door frame, the inside suddenly became bright and the fragrance filled the air.

The front hall was very spacious, with a few people sitting inside, drinking and eating hot soup in one hand and sesame cake in the other. The slurping sounds came one after another, making Zhou's mouth water.

As the two entered, everyone in the hall stared at them. The waiter asked with some confusion, "You two look unfamiliar to me. I'm afraid you're from Liangzhou, right?"

Ji Changying remained calm and said, "What are you saying? Do you really know everyone in this city?"
