"Don't slander me!"
Lu Ting was blinded by rage and slapped Wang Jue hard across the face, knocking Wang Jue's head to the side.
"You bitch, how dare you hit me!"
Blinded by anger, the two started fighting each other, ignoring everyone around them.
"Cough cough cough..." The general coughed incessantly with anger. Madam Li brought him tea and patted his shoulder: "General, please don't be angry, slow down, slow down."
The concubines huddled in the corner, too afraid to speak.
"Hurry up and seize them! Drain this adulterous couple in a pig cage! Now!"
Song Tangxue followed Wang Jue and Lu Ting, who were being carried out with their mouths covered, and left silently. By the time the general remembered to thank Song Tangxue, she had already returned to Chunxin Hall and was vividly describing the incident to her master.
Master has a grudge against General Wang, so Master must want to hear about the dirty secrets of General Wang's family.
As a result, she blurted out the Qiankun Therapy she was using, and Song Tangxue only realized it after she finished speaking.
It's over.
Doctor Xie smiled and handed her a cup of tea: "Are you thirsty? Have some."
Song Tangxue blankly accepted the teacup, then cautiously glanced at Doctor Xie Lingyi again and again. Doctor Xie Lingyi was somewhat helpless: "Why are you looking at me?"
Song Tangxue knew that even if she didn't make a slip of the tongue, she couldn't hide the fact that so many people present had heard her bet.
It'll probably all get out eventually, so there's no point in racking your brains to hide it anymore.
"Master, aren't you curious about my Qiankun Healing Technique?" Song Tangxue asked tentatively, waiting to see how Doctor Xie would answer.
"Didn't you say you've loved reading medical books since you were a child? Perhaps you learned it from somewhere." Doctor Xie didn't take it seriously. "Alright, a seriously ill patient has come into the room. I still need to go and see him. You've worked hard today, so go back and rest early."
It wasn't until she left Chunxin Hall that Song Tangxue realized that Doctor Xie had seen many medical cases, so how could he not know that she was lying?
It's unclear whether Xie Lingyi didn't care or if he knew something and was deliberately avoiding it.
Song Tangxue paused, her medical skills were learned in her previous life, and if Doctor Xie really knew something...
Lowering her eyes, the sunlight cast a long shadow over her, and she realized that her rebirth might not have been an accident.
"Miss, why aren't you leaving?" Haitang urged Song Tangxue when she suddenly stopped. "The sun is shining brightly right now, let's hurry up and get in the carriage."
Song Tangxue snapped out of her daze and was shocked to find cold sweat beading on her forehead and palms.
Her rebirth is her biggest secret, and she cannot reveal it.
Once in the carriage, Haitang noticed Song Tangxue's sweat and took out a handkerchief to wipe it away for her: "It's only the beginning of summer and the temperature is already so high. How are we going to get through this summer?"
Song Tangxue lifted the curtain and looked outside. The golden sunlight covered the ground, and the blazing sun was constantly devouring the cool air between heaven and earth.
The hotter the summer, the colder the winter. The harvest will definitely be bad. The granary has been burned down. This winter will indeed be different.
After lowering the curtains to block out the heat, Song Tangxue closed her eyes, preparing to take a nap; she was truly exhausted today.
"Bang!"
Before Song Tangxue could fall asleep, a loud crash was followed by a forward lurch. Haitang reached out and caught her, preventing her from hitting the corner of the table.
Haitang wasn't so lucky. Song Tangxue heard her soft cry and quickly got out of her arms: "What's wrong? Are you hurt anywhere?"
Haitang smiled sheepishly: "I bumped my head on the corner of the table, it's nothing serious."
"Hey, who's blind?!" A man's arrogant voice came from outside, while the coachman humbly apologized.
"I don't care what kind of road you're on, you just charged straight at my horse, that's your fault!" the man insisted.
Song Tangxue lifted the car door and got out. The man had sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, and a handsome face, but his words and actions were extremely rude.
"Do you know who my father is? How dare you speak to me like that?" The boy frowned at them, a horse standing agitatedly beside him.
The surrounding area was in the midst of a disturbance, and in the distance, children were playing and frolicking.
This person is incredibly bold, daring to ride a horse recklessly in the bustling city. Song Tangxue tried to recall the person, but she had no memory of him.
"The imperial court has regulations prohibiting people from riding horses in the streets. You yourself violated the regulations, and I haven't even held it against you yet, but you're already making a fuss?" Song Tangxue didn't tolerate him and immediately retorted.
She endured too much in her past life, which is why she ended up like that.
"Huh? Rules?" The man laughed as if he had heard the funniest joke, bending over with extreme arrogance: "Here, my rules are the rules!"
"If you kneel down and apologize to me now, I may forgive and forget. But if you remain obstinate, don't blame me for being impolite!" After the man finished speaking, the servants standing behind him stepped forward and shouted in a show of bravado.
"Our young master has suddenly become very kind today, so hurry up and kneel down to beg for mercy."
The man snorted and urged, "Hurry up!"
Although Song Tangxue was not afraid of this person, these servants were a bit of a problem. She had not brought any attendants with her when she went out, so she would be at a disadvantage if a conflict broke out.
"Oh? You don't even know who your father is, yet you dare to defy imperial authority and disregard the rules set by His Majesty. I'll have to take a good look at you." A familiar voice rang out.
Xie Qianzhong was passing by with An Shiliu, and there were several familiar heads of the secret guards in the crowd. Song Tangxue was no longer afraid.
He stood solemnly in front of the carriage.
Upon seeing Xie Qianzhong, the man's arrogant demeanor vanished; he turned and tried to run away like a mouse before a cat.
"Stop." The two simple words made the man freeze in his tracks. He cursed his bad luck inwardly, but turned around and put on a fawning smile: "Thank you for joking, sir. I was just talking nonsense."
"I wonder if Gong Fengchang knows about your nonsense?" Xie Qianzhong seemed oblivious to Song Tangxue's scrutiny, his gaze still fixed on the man.
The man's legs buckled and he knelt down. He was Gong Fengchang's third son: "Thank you, sir, for sparing my life! It was all my fault. Please have mercy on me!"
"I'll give you one more chance to think about who you should apologize to." Xie Qianzhong shifted his gaze from him to the trembling servants who knelt down with their master.
The man was momentarily stunned, then quickly knelt down, turned around, and kowtowed several times directly to Song Tangxue: "Miss, I'm so sorry, it's my fault, my fault!"
"Alright, get out of here. As for your servants," Xie Qianzhong said expressionlessly, "they've aided and abetted evil, so execute them."
The man didn't dare plead for mercy and ran away in a panic.
Song Tangxue looked at him and smiled sweetly. The two of them hid their feelings for each other amidst the gazes of the crowd in the bustling city.
