Chapter 263 I can’t just watch her being dragged down by Lin Tingfeng
Song Yanxi didn't answer but asked, "Are you questioning my medical skills?"
Tian Shitou was about to say no, but he heard her hidden meaning and said excitedly, "I knew that the prince would be blessed by heaven, and everything will be fine!"
He rubbed his hands and asked nervously, "Princess, can you take me to see the prince? Just a glimpse from a distance will be enough. I promise not to cause any trouble!"
Song Yanxi frowned slightly, "You don't believe me?"
Tian Shitou hurriedly shook his head, almost biting his tongue in anxiety, his chubby face full of seriousness, "I'm going to protect the prince!"
"The prince is a skilled martial artist, and he has so many guards around him, why would he need a little idiot like you?"
"Brother Qingshan, what you said is true. If the prince is really so powerful and invulnerable to swords and guns, how could he be injured?"
Cucumber Egg's words instantly left the others speechless.
Especially the two people who knew the inside story.
It’s not right to say it, and it’s not right not to say it.
The atmosphere in the tent suddenly became extremely subtle.
Doctor Liu was the one with the most ideas. His face darkened and he said, "What are you yelling about? I'm not even leaving yet. Do you all think I'm dead?"
As soon as the old man got angry, Tian Shitou immediately became obedient. He didn't say anything about wanting to see Mo Jinchuan. He quickly jumped out of bed and surrounded him, asking him if he was thirsty or tired.
Doctor Liu rolled his eyes and said angrily, "Why are you drinking? Sooner or later, I will be pissed off to death by you debt collectors."
After saying this, he turned and left, as if he was afraid that he would be angered to death on the spot if he left a step later.
Liu Qingshan was afraid that he would get sick from anger, so he quickly said, "We are not good at talking, so we won't chase him and make him angry. Please ask the princess to persuade him on our behalf and let him calm down."
Knowing that the old man was acting, Song Yanxi quickly agreed.
She turned to leave when she heard Liu Qingshan's apologetic voice in her ears, "Princess, just do your best regarding the list. Don't make it too hard on yourself."
After all, she is still the general's wife in name only, so some inconveniences are inevitable.
Even people in the army could see that there was no love between the couple and that divorce was a matter of time.
But as long as they are husband and wife, when General Lin's crime is exposed and His Majesty holds him accountable, she, as the original wife, cannot escape responsibility.
No matter who it is, when their own interests or even their lives are in danger, it is impossible not to consider themselves.
So today, they can bet on it.
Betting on her kindness and conscience as Dr. Song.
If he wins the bet, everyone will be happy, and there will be an explanation for the 300 people who died in the battlefield inexplicably like his father and brother Erniu.
If you lose...
They have no other choice.
Even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, we must give it a try.

"What's wrong? Are you mad at me for putting on a show to get a promise from them?" Military Doctor Liu snatched the pestle from Song Yanxi's hand and pushed her aside.
Although he was asking, his actions were completely different from what he said.
He almost said directly: "I am not wrong, even if the sky is broken, I am not wrong."
Song Yanxi felt that she didn't even need to say anything, just a slight "hmm" would be enough to make the old man explode with anger.
Forget it, the old man is already this old, so it’s better not to provoke him intentionally.
As if he had eyes on his back, Doctor Liu snorted coldly and said, "I may be old, but I don't need to respect the elderly and love the young. It makes me tired just by listening to it."
He was talking while his hands were moving non-stop, making the mortars bang loudly.
Song Yanxi quickly reminded him, "Please use less strength. This casually put together wooden board is not very solid."
Doctor Liu glared and said unhappily, "I'm busy here, I don't even have a sip of water to drink, and you're worried about a piece of broken wood?"
Song Yanxi silently glanced at the teacup beside her without saying anything.
Following her line of sight, Military Doctor Liu also saw the teacup he had nearly overturned. He coughed lightly and said, "Don't blame me for being so thoughtful. People's hearts are hidden. Even if it's written in black and white, some people will still turn their backs on it and deny it.
What's more, this matter involves a wide range of issues. Even if you try your best to help them, success or failure is still uncertain.
You are helping out with good intentions, and there is no reason to complain when you can't get the job done. Even if you are willing, I will not agree."
Song Yanxi nodded, took the pestle from his hand, and said as she pounded the medicine, "I understand your intentions. I know you are doing this for my own good."
Hearing her say this, Doctor Liu felt ashamed.
He moved aside, holding the teacup, and asked tentatively, "I knew about this beforehand and brought this trouble without telling you in advance. Aren't you angry?"
"Angry, why not angry?"
As Song Yanxi spoke, she smashed the pestle in her hand down heavily.
There was a muffled "bang" sound, which made people's hearts tremble.
The teacup in Doctor Liu's hand trembled. Just as he was about to explain, Song Yanxi asked coldly, "If I hadn't brought it up today, when would Elder Liu have confessed to me?"
"This..." Doctor Liu couldn't answer.
Because he really feels guilty.
According to his original plan, after the drug testing was finished, the people under Lin Tingfeng would naturally stop their activities since they couldn't find the booklet, and he would let these people go back to where they came from.
It was a matter of losing his head, so he naturally couldn't be so heartless as to involve this girl. He just wanted to wait until the time was right before talking to her in detail.
Who would have thought that she knew about it in advance.
It goes without saying that the prince must have also known about the disappearance of those 300 soldiers.
This matter must be reported to the higher authorities anyway. If the prince can help, it will definitely be twice as effective with half the effort.
As long as he remembers those people's names, even if he cannot clear their names at the moment, given the prince's temper, he will seek justice for them sooner or later.
As a military doctor in the border troops, he is also their elder. Now that he knows about this matter, he must be responsible.
For this girl, it was an unexpected disaster.
She had no feelings for General Lin to begin with. After two years of marriage, she had been a widow for two years. The two of them were worse than strangers.
But she had to bear the title of the original wife. According to the Da'an law, if the husband commits a crime, the wife will be guilty as well. If Lin Tingfeng is convicted, she will inevitably be implicated by him.
No, he couldn't just stand by and watch, he had to do something.
Doctor Liu was about to say something when he looked up and found Song Yanxi still looking at him. He couldn't help but coughed lightly and said, "I haven't thought about it yet. I was planning to tell you."
"Do you believe what I said?"
"I believe it." Doctor Liu answered quickly, and even asked in return, "Why don't you believe the truth?"
Anyway, he has the final say on what he thinks in his heart, whether it is true or false.
Seeing that Military Doctor Liu was determined to cheat, Song Yanxi knew she couldn't get away with it, so she said bluntly, "The prince has already sent people to secretly investigate this matter. It's just that the two men from Linzhuang are very capable, and their subordinates are more secretive than the other."
"You mean the two of them?"
Doctor Liu snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "They're used to manipulating others. The lives of the whole family are in their hands. Who dares to disobey them?"
