Chapter 85 My stamina will definitely keep up.
Princess Anshun and Meng Lingge rushed over, intending to seek justice for Su Leran, but since Doctor Su didn't want to escalate the matter, they naturally couldn't expose her lies.
Princess Anshun's eyes flickered slightly as she looked at Wen Kehao and said, "Since you've come to apologize, Third Young Master, you could have just told me directly and come openly. What kind of behavior is this, sneaking around like this? The Prince is about to return to the capital, and I don't want to be the kind of person who likes to tattle. I would appreciate it if you could behave yourself and not make things difficult for everyone."
Wen Kehao's expression was indifferent. Upon hearing this, he nodded slightly and hummed in agreement.
Princess Anshun knew that he was always like this, and did not want to make things difficult for him. She calmly instructed, "Get out of here and change your clothes as soon as possible, so you don't catch a cold. If the prince sees you like this, he will think that I have mistreated you."
Wen Kehao stopped talking and strode past the crowd. He paused briefly as he passed Su Leyan.
Su Leyan's lips curled up in a smile.
Meng Lingge noticed this subtle change and was somewhat surprised.
Princess Anshun glanced at the maids and guards behind her and said loudly, "Since it's a misunderstanding, everyone should disperse. This matter must not be leaked. Anyone who spreads rumors outside and ruins Doctor Su's reputation will be severely punished!"
"Your subordinate understands."
The maids and guards all responded and withdrew.
Princess Anshun turned her head and said gently to Meng Lingge, "Lingge, Doctor Su is a good friend of yours. It is ultimately our fault for worrying her like this. Please stay here with her for a while on behalf of your mother. If Doctor Su has any requests, please try your best to fulfill them."
Meng Lingge escorted Princess Anshun a few steps away.
"Don't worry, Mother."
After Princess Anshun left, Meng Lingge called a maid to clean the room, and then went into a guest room next door with Su Leran.
The two sat down at the table. Su Leyan was still smiling faintly, her usual calm and composed demeanor as a doctor was nowhere to be seen.
Meng Lingge didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "I've known Doctor Su for several months and have long considered you my friend. Since we're discussing personal matters today, I'll just call you by your name. Leyan, tell me the truth, have you taken a fancy to the third young master of our Prince's Mansion?"
Although Su Leyan and Wen Kehao's first meeting was not very pleasant, Su Leyan clearly showed that she was very interested in Wen Kehao, and her eyes were gentle when she explained for Wen Kehao.
It's likely not just her who noticed; her mother probably sensed something was amiss as well, which is why she specifically asked Su Leyan to stay and inquire, and instructed her to try her best to fulfill any requests Su Leyan might have.
Although Wen Kehao is only fourteen years old, it is a bit early for him to get married now. However, since he has been presumptuous with the girl, it is acceptable to arrange the marriage first and then wait a year or two to get married.
However, Su Leyan is just a traveling doctor with no family backing her, so it's unlikely she'll become the principal wife; at most, she'll be a concubine.
For Su Leran, who loves freedom, this is not a good ending.
Moreover, in Meng Lingge's opinion, the Third Young Master Wen Kehao was also somewhat complicated.
Meng Lingge considered Su Leyan a friend, and thought to herself that if this matter was true, she would still have to offer some advice, but if Su Leyan wouldn't listen, there was nothing she could do.
Su Leyan burst into laughter after hearing this, then chuckled and said, "You've got your eye on that young punk? I'm a doctor, and doctors are only interested in their patients."
Meng Lingge breathed a sigh of relief, and then heard her continue, "However, this boy is very handsome, but he has a cold and nasty personality. If we cure his illness, he will definitely not be a womanizer in the future. He is also two or three years younger than me, so his physical strength will definitely be able to keep up. It's not impossible."
Meng Lingge: "..."
What on earth is this all about?
Meng Lingge blushed and changed the subject, saying, "Le Ran, you said Wen Kehao is sick? What kind of sickness?"
She'd been in the manor for so long, and she'd never heard anyone say Wen Kehao was sick. Su Leyan's tone didn't sound fake, and she was an expert on rare and unusual illnesses. Could it be that Wen Kehao also had some strange ailment unknown to others?
Su Leyan nodded seriously, "His illness is both an illness and not an illness. In short, it's a lack of love. He probably lacked love and security in his childhood, so when a little warmth comes his way, he clings to it tightly and refuses to let go."
"However," Su Leyan smiled mysteriously and whispered, "I've already examined him. He has a psychological problem, but his body is normal. I can treat this kind of illness. I've only told you this, so don't tell anyone else. If he hears about it, it won't be so easy to treat him."
this……
Meng Lingge was a little confused again, but she still nodded loyally: "Don't worry, I will definitely not tell anyone."
After all, she herself didn't quite understand it, so how could she convey it to others?
"Is it just that Wen Kehao lacks love? It doesn't seem so. His mother, the prince, and even the princess treat him very well. Although his status is not as prominent as the heir apparent, the heir apparent has been murdered over the years, and Wen Kehao is being given high hopes. He is treated the same as the heir apparent in the prince's mansion. How can that be considered lacking love?"
Su Leyan smiled.
"I don't know about that, but I trust my eyes. Since I was thirteen, I have never misdiagnosed a single case. You don't need to worry about this. I promise I will be careful and will not cause you any trouble."
Meng Lingge was taken aback. "Since I consider you a friend, I'm not afraid you'll cause me trouble. However, Wen Kehao might not be a good match. Although I haven't known him for long, he's quite calculating, and given your and his background, things are complicated..."
Most importantly, she suspected that Wen Kehao's feelings for the prince were not those of a brother, but she had no evidence for this and felt that her suspicions were too outrageous, so she never mentioned it to anyone.
“Speaking of identity, then it’s even more fitting.” Su Leyan’s eyes softened, as if recalling the past. “This matter was destined long ago.”
Meng Lingge couldn't guess the meaning of this nonsensical sentence.
She had a feeling there was more to this than met the eye, that Su Leyan was hiding something from her. But Su Leyan didn't seem inclined to explain, and she didn't press the matter.
Seeing Meng Lingge's serious expression, Su Leyan covered her mouth and laughed, "Alright, I was just teasing you. The people in your palace are too easily frightened. You just scared that young lad, and now you've fallen for it too. I'm young, skilled in medicine, and live a carefree and happy life. Why would I be so unwilling to experience the bitterness of love?"
She spoke casually, but Meng Lingge felt that what she was saying now was a joke, and that what she had said earlier about Wen Kehao was more like heartfelt words.
...
Prince Anshun arrived in Beijing a day earlier than expected.
On that very day, Wen Kehao, who had just finished his military training, did not return to his residence. Instead, he was taken directly to the palace by the imperial guards.
