The Sage of Medicine frowned slightly, and the Prince of Pingnan continued, "If I hadn't liked her in the first place, why would I have disregarded my father and mother's objections and made her my principal wife?"
"But I am the Prince of Pingnan, and I cannot give her a life of one love for all eternity."
"In the end, it was I who wronged her."
Over the years, he has avoided thinking about Gu Yiyi.
However, as soon as Ye Junfei returned from the capital, the Prince of Pingnan couldn't help but think of her.
Because Ye Junfei not only looks like her, but also has the same personality.
The medical sage said in a deep voice, "If you truly loved her, you wouldn't have let her die a tragic death, nor would you have sent her son to the capital."
"In the end, it's just that your affection is too cheap. For you, having multiple wives and concubines is more tempting than growing old together."
A complex emotion flickered in the Prince of Pingnan's eyes. He took a deep breath and said, "I am first and foremost the Prince of Pingnan, and only then her husband."
"You are asking me this question now only to prove that I am a heartless and ungrateful person."
He looked at the Sage of Medicine and said, "You have never been the Prince of Pingnan, so you don't know how difficult it is to sit in this position."
“I accept all your accusations. In my life, I have never wronged anyone except her and her children.”
The medical sage felt utterly disgusted upon hearing his words.
Sincere affection is cheap as grass, not to mention that the Prince of Pingnan has never truly given any real feelings.
The Prince of Pingnan smiled when he saw the Physician's expression: "I know you hate me, but actually I hate you too."
"You may not know this, but when Yiyi died, she was calling out your name."
The medical sage stood there, stunned.
The Prince of Pingnan took a deep breath and said to the Sage of Medicine, "Go and treat Xian'er's leg tomorrow. After he is cured, we will be even."
After he finished speaking, he strode out, leaving the medical sage standing there in a daze.
After the Prince of Pingnan left, the moonlight outside was like a ribbon, and he recalled the scene when he and Gu Yiyi had just gotten married:
The two were deeply in love at the time, and she once danced for him under the moon.
A dance that could captivate a city.
The Prince of Pingnan felt that if he could see that dance, his life would not have been in vain.
But things change too quickly, and in just two years, she passed away.
He used all her belongings to exchange for Ye Jingxian's legs. Thinking of this, a mocking smile appeared on his lips.
The medical sage had also come to his senses by this time, and he did not believe what the Prince of Pingnan had said.
Because he knew that Gu Yiyi treated him only as an older brother.
Even when she died, she was calling out his name only because she knew that the Prince of Pingnan was unreliable and couldn't let go of her two children.
The next day, the Medical Sage went to treat Ye Jingxian's leg as promised. When he arrived, he also called Lin Xiuyan and Ye Junfei over.
His medical skills are beyond doubt; injuries that ordinary doctors find extremely difficult to treat become very simple for him.
However, Ye Jingxian's leg had already been reattached by a doctor and had healed for several more days.
The sage of medicine needed to treat his leg, which required opening up the areas that hadn't been properly set.
The process was so painful that Ye Jingxian screamed in agony, but the Medical Saint showed him no mercy and did nothing to stop him.
Princess Pingnan, watching from the side, felt extremely distressed and couldn't help but say to the Medical Sage, "Could you be a little gentler? Xian'er is in so much pain!"
The medical sage said expressionlessly, "If you're so capable, then you do it."
Princess Consort of Pingnan: "..."
She dared not speak again.
The medical sage turned to Lin Xiuyan and asked, "Did you see my technique just now?"
Lin Xiuyan shook her head knowingly: "Your movements were too fast just now, I didn't see it clearly."
The Sage of Medicine smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter if you didn't see it clearly, I'll demonstrate it for you again."
So he gently patted Ye Jingxian's leg with a skillful touch, and the leg bone that had been almost reconnected fell apart again.
Night Scene's screams echoed through the sky.
Princess Pingnan's face turned deathly pale. She angrily demanded, "What are you doing?"
"Are you trying to heal your injuries, or are you going to worsen Xian'er's condition?"
The Sage of Medicine said calmly, "Of course I'm treating his injuries. If you have any objections to my treatment methods, you can seek help from someone more skilled."
After the Sage of Medicine treated Ye Jingxian's injuries, Princess Pingnan invited many doctors to treat him, but none of them could cure his leg.
Princess Pingnan knew that only the Medical Sage in the world could cure Ye Jingxian; otherwise, she would have already suffered a relapse.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Treating Xian'er's injuries like this is just too torturous!"
The medical sage sneered, "I only promised to heal his injuries, not to heal him painlessly."
"You can now choose a painless treatment option, but it will cost extra."
Lin Xiuyan's lips twitched upon hearing this.
She had always known that although the Sage of Medicine was a benevolent healer, he was also somewhat wicked at heart.
When he's determined to get back at someone, that person usually ends up in a pretty bad situation.
After all, doctors have a wide variety of methods when it comes to treating people. (cascoo.net)
Princess Pingnan asked, "How much more?"
The Sage of Medicine replied, "One hundred thousand taels."
Princess Consort of Pingnan: "!!!!!!!"
Why doesn't he just rob it!
The Prince of Pingnan's mansion didn't have much money at its disposal. It wasn't that the Princess of Pingnan couldn't come up with 100,000 taels of silver, but rather that she felt the Medical Sage was taking advantage of her misfortune!
With a dark expression, she said, "Isn't that too much?"
Lin Xiuyan chimed in, "This is hardly much. When the Medical Sage makes a move, he can bring the dead back to life and heal the wounded. Countless people would love to have his help."
"It seems the princess doesn't have a very deep affection for her second brother. His leg isn't even worth 100,000 taels."
Princess Pingnan looked coldly at Lin Xiuyan, her eyes filled with icy intent: "The Medical Sage is treating Xian'er, what are you doing here?"
Lin Xiuyan replied, "The medical sage and I hit it off immediately. He felt that I had extraordinary bone structure and was a medical prodigy, and wanted to take me as his disciple."
"He thought this kind of bone-setting technique was very rare, so he called me over to observe it."
The medical sage smiled and said to Lin Xiuyan, "Next, you will set his bones."
Princess Consort of Pingnan: "!!!!!!!"
Night View Leisure: "!!!!!!!"
He exclaimed in alarm, "Mother, give the Medical Sage the silver!"
If Lin Xiuyan were to set his bones, she would probably torture him to death.
After all, everyone knows that Lin Xiuyan is ignorant and incompetent. How could she possibly have medical skills?
Princess Pingnan shared the same thought as him; how could she dare to let Lin Xiuyan touch Ye Jingxian?
She felt that the medical sage was only doing this because of Gu Yiyi, and was deliberately making things difficult for them.
She took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll add another 100,000 taels of silver."
"If you can't cure Xian'er, don't blame me for being impolite!"
After she finished speaking, she sent someone to fetch the silver notes.
The Sage of Medicine said with some regret, "It's best to treat illnesses personally, so let's leave it at that this time."
"Watch my technique carefully in a moment, and try it again next time."
Lin Xiuyan obediently replied, "Okay."
Princess Pingnan and Ye Jingxian were seething with hatred.
