Chapter 32 Three Lives After All
"The Queen's decree, Prince Jun doesn't even want to show up?"
The eunuch said to the housekeeper of Prince Jun's mansion in a shrill voice, "The palace is fenced off. We specially got a badge to come out. This is an urgent matter."
"Eunuch, our prince is not feeling well, so he went to bed early. Didn't I tell you a long time ago? The Queen's decree, you just need to tell me. The prince has given me some power. If our Prince Jun's Mansion can do it, I will go beyond the rules and do it for the prince. If I can't do it, it won't be too late to report to our prince tomorrow when he wakes up."
Butler Zhong remained calm.
Is the Queen anxious because the Prince is marrying a concubine?
In the past, she treated Prince Jun's Mansion with respect and distance, and did not dare to act like a queen. But now she is so anxious that she has lost her composure and is even using her status as queen to put pressure on Prince Jun's Mansion.
"You are just a small housekeeper."
The eunuch's voice became even shriller as he got angry. Just as he was about to point at the steward to show off his power, two guards came forward, grasping the hilts of their swords and pretending to draw them.
The clang sounds of swords being drawn immediately suppressed the eunuch's anger.
Butler Zhong said calmly, "I am a small butler in Prince Jun's mansion, but don't forget, eunuch, you are just a small eunuch in the palace."
He is so mad!
The eunuch was extremely angry, but he really didn't dare to make a scene in Prince Jun's mansion.
Although the Queen said before coming that if possible, she would kill Prince Jun's arrogance, she later instructed that no one should really cause trouble in Prince Jun's mansion.
As soon as the steward of Prince Jun's Mansion took a tough stance, he actually backed off.
The eunuch took a breath and lowered his voice, "The Queen is really in a hurry, so I won't bother Prince Jun to get up. I will just pass on the message to Prince Jun outside the door and listen to his personal reply so that I can go back and report. What do you think, Butler Zhong?"
If they keep stopping him, the Queen and the others will guess that Prince Jun is not well at all.
Butler Zhong had no choice but to nod.
"Okay, then please ask the eunuch to come to the prince's door."
The eunuch was taken to the outside of the prince's room. Steward Zhong called out to the door several times. After a while, there was a response from inside.
"What is it?"
Prince Jun's voice sounded a bit dull, and the eunuch pricked up his ears to try to identify whether it was his voice, but Prince Jun only said these two words.
"Prince Jun, tell the Queen that the capital will hold a gambling and medicine festival in half a month, and we will have to rely on Divine Doctor Li to preside over the event. I heard that Divine Doctor Li angered the prince, and the prince sent people to arrest Divine Doctor Li's daughter, Li Zhiyao, and put her in jail. Please release Miss Li for the sake of the gambling and medicine festival."
Qing, who was pretending to be Prince Jun in the room, almost wanted to curse when he heard this.
Doctor Li really went to the palace to complain to the Queen!
For a little girl like Li Zhiyao, the Queen actually sent people out so late at night to put pressure on the Prince.
"Prince Jun?"
The eunuch didn't hear a reply, so he asked again immediately.
Qing Yi hesitated. He didn't know whether the prince would agree or not. He couldn't think of how to answer for a moment. At this moment, two words came from the bed.
"No."
Prince Jun woke up at this critical moment.
Qing Yi hurried over and saw that Prince Jun was pale and the poisonous scar on his face looked particularly terrifying.
"Your Majesty, the Queen said..."
"roll."
The eunuch was certain that it was Prince Jun's voice, as he heard the word "get out" with a sense of pressure. He did not dare to argue any further, and withdrew with his head down, leaving Prince Jun's mansion.
As soon as the eunuch left, Prince Jun started coughing again.
"Your Highness, the gambling medicine festival will bring great doctors and medicine dealers from all over the world. By then, we should be able to find a doctor and medicine that can cure Your Highness."
Qingyi poured him a cup of hot water.
They rushed back to the capital at this time, firstly to marry a concubine and get the things left by the emperor for the prince, and secondly for the gambling medicine ceremony.
"Is there any news from Luoyue Mountain?"
The poison scar on his face started to itch again. That kind of itch is unbearable for most people, but once you touch or scratch it, the poison scar will spread.
Prince Jun held the quilt tightly with both hands, suppressing the urge to grab it.
"not yet."
"No news means the person is fine." Prince Jun thought of Fu Zhaoning's bright face, "I didn't expect she was capable."
This time when Fu Zhaoning went into the mountains to look for medicine, they all knew very well that this trip would definitely be dangerous. Now Fu Zhaoning was tied to him, and those who wanted to deal with him, or those who didn't want him to get the things of the emperor, would want Fu Zhaoning's life.
"Zhong Jian should have found Miss Fu. With the protection of Zhong Jian and the others, Miss Fu should come back safely." Qing Yi said.
"Just come back safely?"
Prince Jun smiled silently.
If she couldn't find the ten medicinal herbs, she would be in a difficult situation when she returned.
In the mountains, Fu Zhaoning put away the needle and took the young woman's pulse, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
She straightened the woman's clothes, but frowned when she saw her blood-soaked skirt.
Outside, Old Man Ji stopped the bleeding of the young man and looked at his wound with concern.
"The wound is too big. My medicine is good. Ordinary medicine wouldn't be able to stop the bleeding. The bleeding has stopped temporarily, but the wound is so big that it's hard to heal. If you move around any more, it might bleed again."
Fu Zhaoning had already crawled out and walked over to take a look at the young man's wound. "It needs to be sutured if it's going to heal."
"Sew, sew?" Mr. Ji widened his eyes.
How to sew?
Is that what it means literally?
"But we don't have the conditions to perform a suture operation right now. Also, the woman's fetus has been saved for now, but she needs to pack up, change clothes, and take medicine. She definitely can't stay overnight in the mountains."
The young man suddenly looked up at Fu Zhaoning, his eyes sparkling, "Miss, are you saying that my wife and child are fine?"
"For now, it's okay for now."
Fu Zhaoning turned his wrist to relieve the pain from the acupuncture and said, "But you can't stay in the mountains overnight, otherwise you and your wife will not survive, and the fetus will also die."
"Disciple, there's no need to be so direct..." Old Man Ji said in a low voice.
Fu Zhaoning glanced at him and said, "I'm telling the truth."
"Please ask your guards to take my wife down the mountain. I came to the capital to seek refuge with my uncle. My name is Qi Yunhai. When I see my uncle, I will definitely repay you and the old senior for your kindness."
Fu Zhaoning looked at Zhong Jian.
It was already dark, and Zhong Jian was guarding nearby. The other guards had already started a fire, and Zhong Jian had just held out a torch to light the way for her.
"The master ordered us to protect Miss Fu." Zhong Jian said.
"Get a simple stretcher and take them down the mountain." Fu Zhaoning said, "After all, there are three lives at stake."
Zhong Jian hesitated.
"Then let the four of them go, I'll stay."
When Qing Yi asked them to come over, he also reminded them to listen to Miss Fu.
"Whatever, I don't need any protection. Besides, it seems the rule is that no one can help me?"
