Chapter 81: She is no one's property
Xie Yingmian coughed lightly and said, "Observation, questioning, and palpation are the foundation of medical diagnosis."
"I'm your doctor, so naturally I have to observe your complexion first. Are you afraid of me seeing it?"
"I'm sorry, but I not only want to see it, I want to touch it too."
She walked up to Yu Lingye and showed her sharp white teeth to him.
Then a slightly cool hand fell on Yu Lingye's forehead.
Yu Lingye: ...
I use this trick every time and never get tired of it.
"You have a slight fever." Xie Yingmian said, "Your wound may be inflamed."
"It's not a bad thing. It will be fine once the fever subsides."
"The fever isn't high, at most 38 degrees. You don't need to take any medicine, just rely on physical cooling."
"If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, tell me immediately."
Yu Lingye responded nonchalantly.
"Who's outside?" he asked.
Xie Yingmian raised his eyebrows.
I don’t know when Yu Lingye woke up, how many conversations he heard, or whether he heard about her opening a clinic.
She didn't care that Yu Lingye knew that she opened a clinic.
The era of imperial power.
All under heaven belongs to the king.
If Yu Lingye wanted to find out, he could investigate it in minutes. Hiding the truth would be like covering one's ears and stealing the bell.
However, since Yu Lingye didn't ask, she didn't plan to mention it.
"It's Imperial Doctor Cui who's outside," Xie Yingmian said. "He took your pulse incorrectly, and he feels bad about it, so he came to apologize and take your pulse again."
"Want to meet him?"
Yu Lingye was in no mood or energy: "Let him go back."
Xie Yingmian was not surprised by this answer.
In the process of interacting with Yu Lingye, she found that Yu Lingye's attitude towards the imperial doctors was not very good.
Doctor Cui was no exception.
"Please meet him for my sake, otherwise my brother will feel bad." Xie Yingmian said.
"He doesn't have any other intentions. He's just a medical geek who wants to check your strange pulse."
Yu Lingye: "Your senior brother?"
Xie Yingmian raised her eyebrows slightly.
Didn’t Yu Lingye hear that she accepted Doctor Cui as her senior brother?
If you haven't heard this, it's like you haven't heard about her opening a clinic.
She stared at Yu Lingye for a moment.
Yu Lingye's face was expressionless, and no valuable information could be seen.
She said casually, "Yes, I accepted an apprentice for my master, just now."
"He is older than me, so I will treat him as my senior brother."
Yu Lingye didn't say anything.
His eyes were downcast, and his emotions could not be seen.
Just when Xie Yingmian thought Yu Lingye would not agree.
Yu Lingye spoke up: "Let him in."
Doctor Cui returned to his usual serious and solemn demeanor.
He bowed respectfully, apologized, and asked to take Yu Lingye's pulse.
Yu Lingye did not make things difficult for Doctor Cui and extended his hand.
Doctor Cui took the patient's pulse for a long time.
Switch from left hand to right hand.
The right hand then switched to the left hand.
I took her pulse until I was doubting my life, but I still couldn't find anything wrong.
Doctor Cui hesitated.
He guaranteed with his many years of medical experience that the prince's pulse was normal and definitely not a dangerous pulse.
But he had psychological trauma and didn't dare to speak out.
Xie Yingmian saw what Doctor Cui was thinking.
She smiled and said, "Brother, just tell the prince whatever pulse you take."
Encouraged by Xie Yingmian, Imperial Physician Cui cautiously said, "Your Highness has a fever due to inflammation of the wound. Once the fever subsides, he will be fine."
Xie Yingmian nodded: "I think so too."
Yu Lingye withdrew his hand.
His tone was flat and indifferent, and no emotion could be heard: "Sorry to trouble Doctor Cui, please go back."
Doctor Cui didn't want to stay any longer, so he bowed and took his leave.
After Doctor Cui left.
Only Yu Lingye and Xie Yingmian were left in the room.
Neither of them spoke.
The candle burned, making a crisp snapping sound.
The golden charcoal in the stove was burning vigorously. The flames rose up and leaped out of the stove like a fire dragon, burning the surrounding air with crackling sounds.
Xie Yingmian was near the fireplace.
The flames rising into the sky made the surrounding space warm.
"Are you hungry?" After the air was burned, Xie Yingmian's voice was slightly blocked, and it felt a little unreal.
Yu Lingye did not respond.
He stared at Xie Yingmian for a long while before asking, "Is Imperial Physician Cui now your senior brother?"
Xie Yingmian didn't understand.
She had already explained it to Yu Lingye.
"Yes." Xie Yingmian said, "Is there a problem?"
Yu Lingye lowered his eyes and brushed the corner of his clothes with his slender fingers: "Have you heard of the Eight Surnames Chart?"
Xie Yingmian shook his head.
She had never heard of it, and the original owner didn't remember it either.
Yu Lingye said: "When the Dayu Dynasty was first founded, there were eight great founding heroes."
"The eight of them made an indelible contribution to the founding of the Dayu Dynasty."
"In order to honor them, the founding fathers left portraits of each of them."
"There are eight portraits in total. Because the eight heroes have different surnames, they are called the Eight Surnames Portraits."
"The Eight Surnames Chart hangs alongside the portrait of our ancestor emperor in the Changming Hall, enjoying the worship of the entire Dayu Dynasty and passing down its fame for eternity."
"The descendants of these eight heroes also enjoy many special rights and honors."
"One of the special rights is that the descendants of the Eight Great Heroes can call upon the Imperial Guards when their lives are in danger."
"These eight families are known as the Eight Great Families of Shangjing. Each of them has stood firm for a hundred years, and the Cui family is one of them."
Xie Yingmian was very surprised.
She didn't expect that Doctor Cui was so distinguished.
The old man looked so familiar with the quarrel with Fu Mo that you really couldn't tell that he was from a wealthy family.
"So my senior brother has such a distinguished background." Xie Yingmian said, "Then I've found a treasure. I'm so lucky."
The veins on Yu Lingye's forehead twitched several times.
Good luck?
He sneered: "Have you ever thought about your identity?"
Hearing this, Xie Yingmian felt an inexplicable anger rising in his heart.
What is her identity?
The eldest daughter abandoned by the Xie family?
Yu Lingye’s princess who came for good fortune?
Is this the identity she wants?
As soon as she crossed over, she was forced to become a buried bride, and she was more disgusted than anyone else.
She stayed with Yu Lingye just to find Qi Kongshi and return to her world.
This was a fair deal, and she thought she had made it very clear to Yu Lingye.
From the beginning to the end, she never thought about becoming anyone's princess.
She is no one's property, no one's canary,
She also doesn't want to be tied to anyone for her whole life.
"Your Highness Prince Ling is overthinking."
"Dr. Cui and I are both passionate about medicine, which is why Dr. Cui accepted my master as his disciple."
"Dr. Cui doesn't care about my identity, so I naturally don't care about Dr. Cui's identity either."
"Whether Imperial Physician Cui is from one of the Eight Great Families or just an ordinary Imperial Physician, it has nothing to do with me."
"I am who I am, and my senior brother is my senior brother."
"As for those petty schemes that His Royal Highness Prince Ling is thinking about, they have nothing to do with us. Your struggle for imperial power should not affect us."
"If His Royal Highness Prince Ling is unhappy, you can divorce me. After the divorce, we can go our separate ways and keep our distance."
"Don't worry, even if you divorce me, I will help you deal with the Du'e Gu. I will also help Fu Mo and Fu Feng recover their Kung Fu skills, and I will also treat Yan Qing's headache."
"I won't go against money."
