Chapter 89 This prince will protect you
Jiang Shouye, who was disappointed in himself that day, now looked favorably upon Jiang Qingyue because she saved the eldest princess.
Jiang Shouye stroked his beard and nodded to Jiang Qingyue with a friendly expression.
"Since Concubine Wan asked you to go outside the city to see a doctor, then you should go tomorrow. The sooner you can help the Seventh Prince settle those refugees, the sooner you can return home."
But I'm really anxious
Jiang Qingyue sneered in her heart.
"I'm afraid I'll disappoint you, but my hand is still injured."
She pulled up her sleeves and saw that the blood had already solidified on the gauze, forming a black patch.
"I was busy treating the eldest princess at the palace banquet today, and my injuries have worsened."
Jiang Shouye's face changed drastically, and he couldn't help but feel dissatisfied with Mrs. Jiang's behavior that day.
"How could it be so serious? The doctor hired by Guiyu should still be here. Send someone to call the doctor over to treat your injuries."
"No."
Jiang Qingyue pulled down her sleeves to cover the wound.
She couldn't hide her disappointment in her tone.
"The second young lady had a cough, and Madam was too busy to take care of me, so she brought the second young lady back first. If it weren't for my aunt giving me a ride, I'm afraid I would have had to walk back."
"Madam is so worried about the Second Miss. If I call the doctor over, Madam might misunderstand and think I'm going to compete with the Second Miss for her attention and be jealous."
The scene in the front hall that day flashed before Jiang Shouye's eyes. Mrs. Jiang's hysteria was really scary.
And Jiang Mingyang, ever since Jiang Qingyue came back, their relationship has been bad, and they quarrel all the time.
"But your injury..."
Jiang Qingyue shook her head. "I'm a doctor. I can apply the medicine myself when I get back."
Since she was like this, Jiang Shouye couldn't say anything.
He just sighed secretly in his heart. If the lady had not been so confused and cruel, she would not have delayed Concubine Wan's mission.
"Then you should recuperate for the next two days, but Concubine Wan's imperial decree cannot be delayed."
Jiang Qingyue agreed obediently and then returned to Yuehuaxuan.
Just after applying the medicine to himself, he heard that Jiang Shouye sent someone to the Begonia Garden next door to call Mrs. Jiang away, probably because she was scolded.
Jiang Shouye is a man who will be good to anyone who benefits him.
Giving out porridge is nothing. Now the Jiang family is counting on her to make a contribution.
It’s nothing for Mrs. Jiang to be scolded for the glory of the Jiang family.
After nightfall, Jiang Qingyue finished washing up, turned off the lights and was about to lie down when she suddenly realized something.
She froze, and one hand gently touched the dagger under the pillow. When the breath approached, she suddenly stood up and stabbed the man in the heart with the dagger.
Unexpectedly, her attack was easily grasped by someone.
"Want to kill me?"
This voice... is Xie Lingyun!
Jiang Qingyue was startled, "Why is it you?"
"If it's not me, who do you think it is?"
With this low voice, Xie Lingyun's handsome face gradually approached, until the two could clearly feel each other's breathing.
"Of course it's the shameless, audacious thief."
Otherwise, who else could it be!
He is so bold as to break into the boudoir of the young lady of the Shangshu Mansion in the middle of the night.
Xie Lingyun is a man who acts without any scruples.
Xie Lingyun raised his eyebrows, "Oh, are you scolding me?"
Jiang Qingyue pursed her lips, then calmly tidied up her inner garment that was messed up by the fight.
Xie Lingyun is a martial artist, and his eyesight is better than others in the dark.
At this time, Jiang Qingyue's underwear had been torn open, revealing her fair neck and beautiful collarbone.
The faint fragrance on her body is really pleasant.
"What else?"
Xie Lingyun withdrew his gaze. The fair and delicate neck reminded him of what Doctor Qian had said.
If Jiang Qingyue is really Zhuo Yi's apprentice, then he must be tortured and soaked in poison every day.
But... from what he saw, where were the injuries and signs of torture?
Could it be that...
Jiang Qingyue saw the man's gaze fixed on her, and she couldn't help but feel a little ashamed and angry. "It's late at night and the dew is heavy. Why are you staring at me, cousin? What else do you want to see? Just tell me. Do I dare to disobey?"
Humph, it seems that Xie Lingyun is the same, a bad guy obsessed with lust!
All crows are black, and none of them are good.
"Really?" Xie Lingyun raised his eyelids and spoke in a serious tone.
Jiang Qingyue's ears were red, and her lips were tightly pursed. "You've seen my body, but you want to marry me, are you sure, cousin?"
If Xie Lingyun dares to do anything wrong, she will destroy him!
Xie Lingyun raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Forget it then."
Jiang Qingyue:......
Why is this answer so annoying?
The fact that he looked down on her was even more of a thorn in Jiang Qingyue's side than Xie Lingyun's lust.
Son of a bitch!
"By the way, is your hand okay?"
Jiang Qingyue finally reacted and forgot to continue pretending that her arm was injured.
"I'm a doctor. I cured myself."
Xie Lingyun: "Then... my cousin is really an excellent doctor."
Jiang Qingyue gave a perfunctory smile, pretending not to understand Xie Lingyun's sarcasm.
"Cousin, why are you here so late? Don't you know Jiang Guiyu is in the yard next door? She loves to gossip about me. If she catches us, I don't know how she'll frame you and me."
Xie Lingyun took a few steps back and pulled up a stool to sit down.
"She plotted against you, but you didn't plot against her? Jiang Qingyue, why are you so easy to bully?"
Jiang Qingyue half-lowered her eyes and said, "When I get married, my husband's family will naturally protect me."
Xie Lingyun snorted and laughed, "Then you should first find someone who is strong enough to match the Seventh Prince and is willing to marry you!"
Suddenly, there was a sound of birds outside the door.
"Miss, are you calling me a slave?"
Jiang Qingyue glanced at Xie Lingyun.
There was no candle in the room, and the moonlight was dim today, so I could only vaguely see his appearance.
"It's okay, I've already rested, you don't have to come over."
Jiang Qingyue breathed a sigh of relief only after Que'er left.
Looking at Xie Lingyun again, he seemed like nothing had happened.
"Cousin, what brings you here tonight? If it's nothing serious, I'll go to bed first."
She has already ordered him to leave.
Xie Lingyun's eyes darkened. "I'm leaving Yanjing City for half a month. This trip... is a bit dangerous. I came to ask you for some effective poisons and antidotes."
Jiang Qingyue was stunned at first, her eyes narrowed slightly, and her palms felt slightly cold, "Poison? How could I have poison, cousin?"
The darkness in Xie Lingyun's eyes deepened. He suddenly moved closer and pinched Jiang Qingyue's chin with two fingers. "It's not smart to play dumb with me. How long do you think you can hide the fact that you learned from Zhuo Yi from me?"
"You investigated me!" Jiang Qingyue's eyes suddenly turned cold, and her palms couldn't help but sweat slightly.
Xie Lingyun even knows his master's name, how much does he know?
"What else? Am I stupid enough to let anyone into the mansion to treat my mother?" Xie Lingyun loosened his grip and sat back down. "Don't worry, cousin. I won't ask for it for nothing. Consider it a favor I owe you."
The girl's skin was so delicate that a pinch left a red mark in an instant.
Xie Lingyun couldn't help but frown. No, it turns red when pinched. Is she so delicate?
How could she survive Zhuo Yi's hands when she was so delicate?
Could it be that Dr. Qian is fooling me?
"Really? Including last time, I can make four requests now?" Jiang Qingyue raised her eyes, sparkling and particularly eye-catching in the dark night.
Xie Lingyun's heart moved, and he couldn't help but smile, "Alright! I keep my word! I can't lie to you. For the next three months, I will protect you."
