Chapter 294 Is the Princess Willing to Become a Wedding Dress for Others?
When Song Yanxi woke up, she was dazed for a moment when she saw the bright light in the room.
How long has she been sleeping?
No, she wasn't asleep; she was passed out.
Recalling the bowl of hot porridge last night, Song Yanxi closed her eyes and almost squeezed out three words from between her teeth.
"Good job."
"Wow!" She suddenly opened her eyes at the sound of a loud baby cry.
Realizing where she was at the moment, Song Yanxi didn't have time to think too much, and quickly threw off the quilt and jumped out of bed.
The woman in labor had already woken up and was lying there, not daring to move. He became anxious when he caught a glimpse of her figure out of the corner of his eye.
"Princess, you can't do that!"
In a hurry, she didn't care about the knife wound on her stomach, and gritted her teeth to get up.
Song Yanxi quickly grasped her shoulders and asked angrily, "Are you trying to kill yourself?"
"I……"
"Lie down quietly."
Without bothering to comfort the woman in labor, she quickly lifted a corner of the quilt and gently took out the child who was wrapped like a little dumpling.
As if the child felt that someone was noticing him, he cried even louder, his two little eyebrows wrinkled together in grievance, and his pitiful appearance made people feel distressed.
Hearing her son's cry, the mother's heart tightened and she hurriedly said, "Princess, Ping An is probably hungry."
"Ping'an?" Song Yanxi patted the child in her arms and sighed, "Ping'an'an, it's a good name."
As soon as she finished speaking, the curtain was opened a crack from the outside.
Immediately afterwards, a thin figure quickly squeezed in.
Chang Jiu was too thin, tall and skinny. Even with his face covered by a mask, Song Yanxi still recognized him at a glance.
He was holding a half bowl of steaming goat's milk in his hand, and his eyebrows curved instantly when he saw her wake up.
The young man said happily, "Doctor Xi didn't lie to me. You really woke up at this time."
Song Yanxi said in a cold tone, "It's amazing that he can calculate so accurately. It's really a waste of his talent for him to be just a doctor."
Although he didn't know what happened, Chang Jiu's intuition told him that these were definitely not good words.
He put the bowl on the table and naturally reached out to pick up the child.
Seeing his intention, Song Yanxi did not dare to hand the child to him rashly.
If she had not happened to take care of a newborn baby when she was practicing medicine with her master, she would not have dared to act rashly.
Holding this little guy is like holding a newborn kitten, so soft that it seems like it has no bones. If I hold him too hard, I am afraid of hurting him, but if I hold him too lightly, I am worried that I won't be able to hold him.
She was still holding him with great care, not to mention that Changjiu was just a half-grown child.
Understanding Song Yanxi's concerns, the mother explained, "My princess, you don't know that it was Brother Chang who took care of Ping An this morning. Although he is young, he is very meticulous in taking care of the child."
Chang Jiu felt a little embarrassed by the praise and blushed as he said, "My father is busy treating patients during the day and sometimes he might not be back until dark. I helped take care of my younger brother and sister when they were born."
He took the child from Song Yanxi's arms, hurried over and sat down, holding the child in one hand and grabbing the spoon with the other.
You can tell from the skilled posture that what he said is true.
The woman's eyes reddened as she said gratefully, "Thanks to the princess for saving my life."
Song Yanxi lowered her head to put on her shoes and said matter-of-factly, "It was Princess Shihan who saved you and your son. I was just helping out.
The person you should thank is not me."
The woman in labor just looked at her and smiled, without saying anything.
She is not blind or stupid, and she can tell who is sincere and who is fake.
The room was silent for a moment, with only the sound of bowls and spoons colliding.
Babies in confinement fall asleep after eating. When Chang Jiu carefully put the baby back to the mother, he looked up and found that Song Yanxi was looking at him without blinking.
He suddenly felt guilty and turned his eyes away, not daring to meet her gaze.
If Song Yanxi was just suspicious just now, then at this moment, she was completely sure.
This guy is indeed hiding something from her.
Before turning around and leaving, she gave Chang Jiu a meaningful look and said calmly, "Come with me for a while."

"Are you going to tell me yourself, or wait for me to ask?"
Compared to the latter, Song Yanxi hopes that Chang Jiu can take the initiative to speak.
He was an honest child, and she didn't want to scare him by being too harsh.
Chang Jiu lowered his head and stared at his toes, muttering, "Military Doctor Liu said that the princess is a smart person, and she definitely can't hide it."
Song Yanxi asked: "So what did Mr. Liu ask you to do?"
Seeing that he still lowered his head, she frowned and said, "Man, if you have anything to say, hold your head high and speak politely.
"You're so timid, your momentum is already weak before you even open your mouth. What a shame!"
"Lift your head."
Chang Jiu raised his head, his eyes were red and tears as big as beans were rolling in them, as if they were about to fall at the next moment.
Song Yanxi sighed softly and said helplessly, "Wipe your tears before you speak. If someone sees you, they might think I'm bullying you."
Chang Jiu did as he was told, but he couldn't suppress the grievance in his heart, and the more he wiped away his tears, the more he cried.
He cried and said, "The princess is so kind, why do they bully her? This is simply too much!"
"They?" Song Yanxi frowned and asked, "Who are they?"
Chang Jiu counted on his fingers, "Princess Shihan, General Lin, and General Xu."
Hearing the last three words, Song Yanxi's heart sank and she asked, "How did they bully me?"
Chang Jiu clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, saying, "They are stealing the princess's military merits!"
Thinking he was talking about going to Cuiming Mountain to pick up Lin Tingfeng, Song Yanxi explained, "These life-saving medicines were brought from Qingzhou City by General Lin at the risk of his own life. This is the credit he deserves."
She made this trip purely out of her conscience as a doctor, for the safety of the people in the border town, and for no other reason.
In her new life, she saw many things clearly: achievements and glory were nothing but empty names.
Once you die, everything will turn into yellow sand and fly away, leaving nothing behind.
"That's not it!" Chang Jiu suddenly became anxious, stretched out his hand to grab Song Yanxi's sleeve and said, "Princess, come with me."

The front hall of Huichun Hall.
Everyone surrounded Zhuang Shihan, and words of praise and gratitude poured out of her like they were free.
From superb medical skills to beautiful and kind people, to being gods who come down to earth to save the world from suffering, there is nothing you can't think of that they can't praise.
Zhuang Shihan blushed at the praise and said modestly, "Thank you for your praise. I'm not as amazing as you say. I'm just a little luckier.
Ultimately, it is God who is blessing the people of the border town."
Who could have thought that the naughty kid with snot bubbles all over his face, who made people feel disgusted at the sight of him, would suddenly give her such a big surprise.
Although she had long guessed that Song Yanxi and that old man must be hiding something, she never imagined that those inedible wild vegetables could be so effective in treating epidemics.
Come to think of it, she really had to thank Song Yanxi.
A huge part of the credit goes to her.
"Shameless!" Chang Jiu was furious. He gritted his teeth and was about to rush up to expose her.
Song Yanxi pulled him back and shook her head at him.
Chang Jiu asked in confusion, "Is the princess willing to be someone else's bride?"
