Chapter 128 Pretending to be unfamiliar
Liu Mingyue pursed her lips. Because the weather was too dry, her lips were a little dry, just like her mood at the moment.
"Since you came to see me after a few days, he must have made some conditions for you, and you have been considering them these days?"
Bai Ziyu reacted calmly. He had some impression that someone from Dingbei Marquis Mansion had come to him to help treat Tan Zhuoyan's legs before.
"Dr. Bai is very insightful. You figured it out without me even saying anything." Liu Mingyue smiled bitterly.
Seeing that Liu Mingyue looked obviously reluctant, Bai Ziyu pondered for a moment before asking, "What conditions did he agree to?"
"I asked him to give me three days to think about it. I didn't say it directly, but I want him to divorce me after his legs are healed." Liu Mingyue had already thought of the conditions. She was struggling for these three days because of other reasons.
"Isn't that good? You have always wanted to divorce Tan Zhuoyan, so this is a bargaining chip. Since you can leave Dingbei Marquis Mansion by curing him, why don't you agree?"
Bai Ziyu didn't understand what Liu Mingyue was thinking. It was better to leave Dingbei Marquis Mansion as soon as possible.
Thinking of the previous incident at Zhou Mansion, Bai Ziyu looked at Liu Mingyue with a complicated expression: "I don't know about the grudges between you and the prince, but even if there is a grudge, you can make plans after leaving the Marquis' Mansion."
Zhou Baili entered the Marquis's mansion as a concubine, and Liu Mingyue's situation in the mansion would not be much better. In addition, Liu Zhu had already left the Zhou mansion, and Liu Mingyue no longer had any concerns between the two mansions, so it was better to cut the Gordian knot.
Taking a sip of the hot tea in the cup, Liu Mingyue did not respond to Bai Ziyu's words. It was not that she didn't want to say it, but she didn't know how to start.
She couldn't talk about what happened in her previous life. The relationship between her and Tan Zhuoyan was more than just a simple love between husband and wife!
"The hatred between him and I is hard to explain at once. I feel sick when I look at this man for even a second. I want to leave the mansion, but I definitely don't want him to stand up!"
Liu Mingyue tightened her grip on the teacup. If possible, she wanted Qin Zhuoyan to live a life worse than death!
After all, they were close friends. Bai Ziyu saw that Liu Mingyue had something to hide, so he stopped asking.
"From what you said, it seems that you haven't divorced yet, so it's hard to refuse with a strong attitude. You also want to make Tan Zhuoyan suffer. If that's the case, I have a good idea."
Bai Ziyu narrowed his eyes and smiled. He did not finish speaking in one breath. Instead, he went to the kitchen and brought out two plates of hot pastries, a stack of mugwort cakes, and a stack of brown sugar rice cakes, all of which were soft, sweet and fragrant.
"Try it." Bai Ziyu pushed the snacks in front of Liu Mingyue. Liu Mingyue couldn't refuse the kindness, so she picked up a piece of mugwort cake and started eating.
After eating, Liu Mingyue couldn't wait to ask: "What method?"
Seeing her anxious look, Bai Ziyu laughed: "I am a doctor. If I have to torture people with medicine, no one has more ways than me. I have many ways to make people live a life worse than death."
Bai Ziyu also picked up a piece of mugwort cake and started eating it. After he finished, he continued, "There are always many people who give up treatment because the treatment process is too painful. Do you like this method?"
Bai Ziyu leaned towards Liu Mingyue, and the man's handsome features magnified in front of Liu Mingyue.
"This method is very good!" Liu Mingyue was surprised and happy. She patted Bai Ziyu's shoulder excitedly and did not blush or feel her heart beating fast because of Bai Ziyu's approach.
The two of them were hugging a fireplace, eating cakes and drinking hot tea in the yard, but in fact they were discussing something that had nothing to do with the peaceful and quiet life. Just looking at this cozy scene, who would have thought that the two of them were discussing how to harm others.
On the fifth day, without waiting for Tan Zhuoyan to come, Liu Mingyue brought Bai Ziyu to the Marquis's residence. Before inviting Bai Ziyu, Liu Mingyue sent someone to inform the Marquis and others. When the two arrived at the flower hall, the Marquis and his men were already waiting in the front hall.
Tan Zhuoyan, who was sitting in a wheelchair, saw Bai Ziyu, dressed in white, walk in. The light in his eyes had never been as bright as it was today. The servant was quite considerate and pushed him forward to greet him.
The Marquis and his wife were also very happy about Bai Ziyu's arrival. They treated him very politely and regarded him as an honored guest.
"I greet the Marquis, his wife, and the Crown Prince." Bai Ziyu greeted everyone in the flower hall one by one.
The Marquis and his wife quickly helped the man up and said, "No need to be polite, miraculous doctor. Please sit down and have some tea first."
As soon as the order was given, the servant came forward to serve tea. Bai Ziyu said a few polite words, took a symbolic sip of tea, and did not touch the teacups or utensils in the marquis' mansion again.
Zhou Baili learned that Dr. Bai would come to her house today. She had never seen this miracle doctor whose medical skills surpassed those of the imperial physicians, so she curiously went to the flower hall to watch what was going on.
She thought that since he was a miracle doctor, he should be quite old. But when he walked in, Zhou Baili was stunned. He had a handsome appearance and an elegant demeanor. He was simply like a god!
"Doctor Bai, I learned that my new wife knows a divine doctor, so I took the liberty of asking her to invite the divine doctor. I wonder if the divine doctor can help my son feel his pulse first and see what the condition of the prince's leg disease is."
Bai Ziyu sat down and drank a sip of tea, with no intention of speaking. The Marquis not only did not blame him or was displeased, but also asked him personally.
You have to know that he didn't invite Bai Ziyu when he came in person. Now that he is here, whether his son's leg can be cured depends on this person, so he has to be polite to him.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince's legs are not in a hurry. I have a few words to say to the Crown Prince's wife first." Bai Ziyu looked at Liu Mingyue indifferently, pretending to have a normal relationship with Liu Mingyue.
"Please speak, miracle doctor." Liu Mingyue lowered her head stiffly and did not seem to be familiar with Bai Ziyu.
"As we agreed before, if you can cure the prince's leg, the favor I owe to his wife will be written off. We will say goodbye and have no further contact from now on."
Bai Ziyu's brows were frowned, and although there was no expression on his face, it was precisely because of this that he looked particularly cold and aloof.
The conversation between him and Liu Mingyue always sounded like Liu Mingyue was repaying a favor. And the reason why he came here today was just to repay a favor. He and Liu Mingyue did not have a close relationship.
"Of course I understand. This was not agreed upon before we came." Liu Mingyue's voice was light and airy, totally lacking the grace and elegance that a Crown Prince's consort should have.
The Marquis and his wife were dissatisfied with Liu Mingyue's petty nature and felt that she had brought shame to the Marquis's Mansion. However, considering that she had invited Doctor Bai, they did not bother with her for the time being.
"But before that, I have something to ask for your permission, Your Highness. Do you still remember our previous agreement?"
Liu Mingyue deliberately asked in front of everyone, just to prevent Tan Zhuoyan from regretting. If Tan Zhuoyan didn't admit it, Liu Mingyue could have asked Bai Ziyu not to treat him. She never bothered to do things that were a waste of effort.
