Chapter 497: This matter can only be handled by the princess
"The princess is a smart person. She should know that the arrow wounded the prince in the heart. He was lucky enough to survive."
Song Yanxi supported Xie Wanjun and comforted her, "I have written a prescription. Let the prince take it according to the prescription for half a month."
"What about half a month later?"
Xie Wanjun's grip on Song Yanxi's hand tightened slightly, her voice trembling unconsciously. "After half a month, does the princess have a more reliable solution?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she muttered to herself, "I'm asking too much. All the imperial doctors in the palace say there's nothing they can do. They can only take care of the patient slowly."
Song Yanxi followed her words and said, "Your Highness's injury is indeed suitable for you to find a quiet place to slowly recover.
In a year at the shortest, or three to five years at the longest, the prince's physique will definitely be better than it is now."
There was no need for her to say much about the health of the man who could be so angry that he vomited blood after just a few words from her.
Xie Wanjun shook her head, satisfied and helpless, "He won't go."
She sighed softly, "What the princess just said, the palace physician also said, the prince immediately drove the person out.
His Majesty even lost his temper for this very reason."
Song Yanxi lowered her eyes and said nothing.
This really seems like something that Prince Ning would do.
He doesn't even care about his own body, let alone learn to care about others.
Xie Wanjun's face turned pale as if she had thought of something. "Where is Prince Jin?"
Song Yanxi: "His Royal Highness Prince Jin went to attend the morning court and hasn't returned yet."
"Morning court..." Xie Wanjun murmured, and suddenly her expression changed drastically, "Did Jinchuan go to see His Majesty?"
Without waiting for Song Yanxi to answer, she hurriedly grabbed her wrist and said, "Princess, this matter must not alarm His Majesty."
After she finished speaking, she thought of something else and said with a grim expression: "At this time, Jinchuan must have already seen His Majesty."
Realizing that there was no turning back, Xie Wanjun slumped helplessly on the bed, tears streaming down her cheeks.
She closed her eyes and said softly, "It shouldn't be like this."
These words seemed to be spoken to Song Yanxi, but also seemed to be asking himself how it turned out like this.
Feeling someone wiping her tears, she slowly opened her eyes and asked softly, "Did you see everything?"
Song Yanxi's fingers, which were pinching the handkerchief, slowly tightened as she softly replied, "Most of the injuries on the princess' body are new injuries from this year.
Although it's just a superficial wound, it still needs to be healed."
When she saw it last night, Song Yanxi felt heartbroken and angry.
Not to mention that Princess Ning is the youngest daughter of the Xie family and has been loved by her parents and brothers since childhood. Even if she was a slave of humble origin, she should not have been treated so inhumanely.
She was his legally married wife and the princess of Prince Ning's mansion.
When Prince Ning attacked her, did he have any concerns about these things?
Not to mention, they grew up together and have a childhood sweetheart friendship.
She even sacrificed half her life to give birth to a young prince for him.
Facing her eyes filled with indignation and heartache, Xie Wanjun explained softly, "He never hit me before."
She lowered her eyes, "He is a very proud man. He couldn't accept that he had become what he is now, so his personality changed drastically."
Song Yanxi could no longer bear it and said, "No matter what, this is not a reason for Prince Ning to hurt you."
Xie Wanjun moved her lips, as if she wanted to argue.
But when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back.
She looked at Song Yanxi, forced a smile and said, "This is a family matter between us, and the princess shouldn't get involved.
As for Jinchuan...as for His Royal Highness Prince Jin, please ask the Princess to persuade him on my behalf, so that he doesn't have to be trapped by the friendship of the past classmates."
"The princess and Prince Jin were classmates?"
"Yes and no."
Xie Wanjun explained, "When my father, Grand Tutor Xie, was teaching in the Eastern Palace, he also taught several young princes to read and reason.
Your Highness Prince Jin is the youngest among us, so call me Senior Sister."
If they are senior and junior sisters, then why did Prince Ning go crazy last night?
Guessing something from Song Yanxi's eyes, Xie Wanjun said somewhat embarrassedly, "Prince Jin lost his mother when he was born, and grew up with His Majesty.
I am six years older than him. Because my father favors him, I take care of him a lot in private.
When no one is around, His Royal Highness Prince Jin calls me "Sister" in private."
Hearing this, Song Yanxi frowned even more tightly.
She was right last night. Prince Ning was indeed a pervert.
As the elder brother, he married the elder sister whom Mo Jinchuan respected. Instead of cherishing his beloved, he became suspicious of the relationship between them.
This was the first time she had seen someone trying to put a green hat on herself.
Xie Wanjun let out a long sigh and said helplessly, "Perhaps I usually care too much about His Royal Highness Prince Jin, which has caused people to criticize me.
When His Royal Highness Prince Jin was ten years old, rumors circulated in the capital that His Majesty intended to arrange a marriage for us, and it caused quite a stir.
Recalling the past, she couldn't help but sigh, "It was then that I realized that the prince had feelings for me."
Seeing her expression of pain, Song Yanxi frowned and asked, "Since the princess had no interest in the prince at that time, why didn't she stop him from asking His Majesty for a marriage?"
Xie Wanjun was stunned and said with some embarrassment: "Our marriage was not what he wanted."
Could it be that Emperor Xuande randomly matched the couples?
Guessing that Song Yanxi had some doubts, Xie Wanjun curled the corners of her lips and said, "Princess, I don't want to tell you the specific reasons.
You just need to know that neither of us wanted to get married, but we had to agree to it."
It makes sense that she has no interest in Prince Ning and is unwilling to marry him.
But she had just said clearly that His Royal Highness Prince Ning was interested in her.
They are childhood sweethearts and he has a crush on her. How could he not be willing when he is secretly happy?
Xie Wanjun shook her head gently, tears silently sliding down from the corners of her eyes.
She didn't say anything else, but rejection was written all over her face.
Obviously, that memory was full of pain for her.
Seeing that her face looked a little ugly, Song Yanxi took out a pill from the medicine box, poured some water and helped her take it.
After a few breaths, Xie Wanjun's expression eased a lot.
When she looked at Song Yanxi again, her eyes were as gentle as ever.
"Did I scare you just now?"
"The princess needs to rest."
Xie Wanjun was a smart person. She could hear the hidden meaning in Song Yanxi's words and chuckled, "My body is like this, whether I take care of it or not."
As she spoke, she changed the subject and said, "As for you, you have been working hard in the general's mansion for more than two years, and then went on expeditions with the army. You have suffered a lot."
When Song Yanxi heard this, her thoughts became complicated for a moment.
Her own life was not easy, yet she still had the kindness and consideration for others.
The more Song Yanxi thought about it, the more she felt.
Prince Ning is really a piece of shit.
He married such a good wife, but he doesn't know how to cherish her.
Song Yanxi was thinking about it when she suddenly heard Xie Wanjun say, "I have an unwelcome request, and I hope the princess can agree to it."
"Princess, please speak frankly. If Yan Xi can do it, she will not refuse."
Xie Wanjun's eyes lit up with smiles as she stared at her meaningfully and said, "Only the princess can handle this matter."
