Chapter 395 Is Song Yanxi worthy of it?
Zhuang Shihan was stunned, and instead of answering, she asked, "Your Highness, what you said is illogical. Isn't it enough that I saved their lives? Do I have to take care of their food, clothing, housing, and transportation in the future?"
I'm just a doctor, not the Bodhisattva Guanyin who saves people from suffering. I don't have that much ability."
It turns out she knows everything.
But to her, it didn’t matter how those wounded soldiers would make a living after leaving the barracks with their crippled legs and feet.
What she cared about was just a few vague compliments from other people and how to maintain her position as a beautiful medical genius.
Song Yanxi placed the medicine box heavily on the table, making a dull "bang" sound.
She met Zhuang Shihan's doubtful gaze and said coldly, "Disciples taught by the Divine Doctor Valley are no more than this."
Zhuang Shihan was enraged and immediately retorted sarcastically, "Even if I'm not very good, I'm still from a famous school. I'm better than you, a half-baked doctor who stole two medical books from who knows where and dared to treat patients."
She sneered and asked, "You don't think that just because a blind cat stumbled upon a dead mouse and saved a few people, you've become a miracle doctor, right?"
Song Yanxi looked at her coldly without saying anything in rebuttal.
Seeing this, Zhuang Shihan perked up even more, and advised with the air of a seasoned veteran, "Since we know each other, I'll tell you the truth.
You have no talent for medicine. If you continue to do this, you will only end up hurting yourself and others. It would be better for you to calm down and return home with General Lin, where you can live your life in peace."
"Shihan..." Lin Tingfeng's face suddenly turned ugly.
Zhuang Shihan didn't even glance at him, and said seriously, "You come from a prominent family, and you're proficient in everything from music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. A mere mistress of a general's mansion won't be a problem for you."
She talked for a long time, but this was the only sentence that came out most sincerely.
In the past, she had not given up on Lin Tingfeng, so Song Yanxi was like a love rival to her, and she was extremely jealous of him when they met.
But now she doesn't plan to have him anymore, and she also likes Song Yanxi a lot more than before.
If she behaves herself better in the future and I don't try to provoke her on purpose, maybe we can become good friends.
The prerequisite is that Song Yanxi is willing to stay in the backyard and take care of her husband and children, and never come out to steal her limelight.
But it was obvious that she didn't want to.
Song Yanxi's eyes were cold, and she asked directly without any concealment, "How did Princess Shihan know that I have no talent for medicine?"
Without waiting for Zhuang Shihan to answer, she asked again, "Since I am so incompetent, Princess Shihan still uses the acupuncture techniques she learned from me to treat the people in the city. Isn't that a disregard for human life?"
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
"Whether it's nonsense or not, we'll know when Mr. Li comes and asks him."
The day before Song Yanxi left the city, Zhuang Shihan was still using that acupuncture method to suppress the symptoms of the epidemic for the people.
She was fine at fooling the common people who didn't understand pharmacology, but when she met people like Mr. Liu and Mr. Li, she would be exposed and embarrassed on the spot.
Zhuang Shihan's face turned pale and blue, she bit her lower lip and said, "So what if I used that acupuncture method?
With your medical skills, even if you were given another eighty years, you wouldn't be able to figure out such a sophisticated acupuncture technique. Who knows where you stole it from..."
Mo Jinchuan raised his eyes and interrupted her coldly, "Since the princess has learned the needlework from others, she should express her gratitude."
Zhuang Shihan's eyes suddenly widened. "Should I thank her?"
"Is it possible?"
Mo Jinchuan's voice was cold, but it carried an attitude that did not allow for questioning.
She had to say thank you today.
Zhuang Shihan found this outrageous. She glared at Song Yanxi with resentment and asked through gritted teeth, "Can you swear to heaven that you created this acupuncture technique yourself?"
Song Yanxi frankly said: "The original creator of this acupuncture technique was not me, but..."
Hearing her admit it herself, Zhuang Shihan couldn't wait to interrupt her, like a victorious peacock, and said excitedly: "I knew it wasn't you."
No matter how talented she is, she is just a woman who is trapped in a deep house and never goes out. She has little knowledge. How many medical books can she understand by reading by lamplight until she goes blind?
To say that she is talented in private is to think highly of her.
If those notes had not been picked up by Song Yanxi but had fallen into her hands, who knows how many people would have benefited from them now.
Thinking that Song Yanxi could learn it so well after just reading a few books, Zhuang Shihan couldn't help but be moved.
Her eyes flashed, and she was about to say something when she heard Mo Jinchuan ask, "Where did this acupuncture technique come from? What does it have to do with whether Princess Shihan thanks you or not?"
Xu Xiao's face was stern, and he snorted coldly, "Princess Shihan, it sounds as if you can learn acupuncture without Princess Yongan's instruction."
As soon as these words were spoken, Cheng Duan couldn't help laughing and almost dropped the medicine bag in his hand.
He thought to himself, if he had known that the border town was so interesting and that the generals stationed there were so good at talking, he should have written a letter requesting permission to come and observe.
Putting aside his swordsmanship, if he could learn even 30% of his talking skills, his fiancée would no longer laugh at him for being tongue-tied when he returns.
Cheng Duan chuckled, enjoying the fun, and even felt that the current fun was not enough.
Zhuang Shihan didn't expect Mo Jinchuan to hold on to her, and she didn't expect Xu Xiao to dare to speak out to protect Song Yanxi at this time. She was so angry that her teeth were itching.
They are all really confused.
She stared at Song Yanxi with a dark look in her eyes and said coldly, "I do want to thank you, but I'm afraid Princess Yong'an won't accept it."
These noble ladies from aristocratic families usually value their reputation the most. The needlework techniques were not invented by her, so how could she have the nerve to accept her thanks?
If she were her, she would probably want to find a hole to crawl into at this moment.
The two looked at each other. Guessing her thoughts, Song Yanxi curled her lips slightly and said, "Since Princess Shihan insists on thanking you, I will be disrespectful to refuse."
"You!" Zhuang Shihan almost bit her teeth to pieces.
This Song Yanxi is really shameless!
She plagiarized other people's achievements and felt so at ease about it. She was not afraid that the person who created this acupuncture technique would find out about it and come to her bedside in the middle of the night to ask her what shame was.
What a noble lady, she has learned all the etiquette and rules like a dog!
Mo Jinchuan looked at her coldly. Seeing that she didn't move, he couldn't help but urge her, "A thank you isn't that hard to say."
It may be difficult or not, but is Song Yanxi worthy of it?
Facing Mo Jinchuan's icy gaze, Zhuang Shihan knew that this matter could not be easily covered up. She gritted her teeth and said, "Princess Yong'an may have forgotten that this acupuncture technique was not taught to me by you, but was exchanged between us."
"Oh?" Mo Jinchuan raised his eyebrows with interest and asked, "What do you mean by exchange?"
This one sentence blocked all the remaining words that Zhuang Shihan wanted to say.
The foolish thing she did in a moment of panic that day almost resulted in two deaths. How could she dare to bring it up in public, or even tell him about it specifically?
Human life is at stake. Even if she has ten thousand reasons, she cannot go beyond human life.
Zhuang Shihan gritted her teeth in hatred and couldn't help but glare at Song Yanxi. She said reluctantly, "Thank you for the acupuncture."
Mo Jinchuan said calmly: "The heart is not sincere."
Zhuang Shihan almost cursed, then took a deep breath and said, "Thank you, Princess Yong'an, for teaching me acupuncture. I'll remember this kindness."
Mo Jinchuan: "Just took note?"
"What else?" Zhuang Shihan's face suddenly turned dark, and she couldn't bear it anymore.
