Chapter 807 Send Her Away
"I'm afraid that if I leave the palace, others will also keep a close eye on you, my father-in-law."
Xiao Yanjing felt that Divine Doctor Li’s mind was too simple, so he didn’t think of going anywhere else.
He suppressed his temper and spoke more carefully.
"Especially Princess Jun, she has joined the Great Medical Association and is now a member of the Great Medical Association. When you come back, people all over the city will probably want to see the duel between you two great doctors, right? By then, all attention will be on you, and any medicine you buy will definitely be exposed."
Doctor Li narrowed his eyes.
Although he had known for a long time that Xiao Yanjing's mind was not on his daughter, he still felt cold and very angry when he saw him so eager to get rid of Li Zhiyao.
"Zhiyao is already in this state. Isn't it most appropriate for her to stay in the palace? After all, you, Prince Xiao's palace, have more people and medicine than me, right? Do you want to get rid of her so much?"
"Father-in-law, I'm doing this for Zhiyao's own good. Right now the Emperor is keeping an eye on Prince Xiao's mansion, and I don't know what's going on with my father. If there's chaos in the mansion, I won't be able to take care of that."
Xiao Yanjing now wished that Divine Doctor Li would take Li Zhiyao away immediately, and his words sounded somewhat threatening.
If he leaves Li Zhiyao here, he won't be responsible for anything that happens.
Looking at Li Zhiyao's appearance, it is really possible that she has contracted the same serious disease as Prince Xiao. Two people in the same family have the same disease, and they are father-in-law and daughter-in-law. How can it sound good if the news gets out?
Li Zhiyao had to be sent away quickly. If the disease she had was exposed, it could be blamed on others.
Xiao Yanjing was unwilling to keep Li Zhiyao in the palace no matter what.
"She is your wife, how dare you say you can't take care of her?" Doctor Li was extremely angry.
"Father-in-law, I don't want to do this either, but I really can't take care of it. What if the emperor really wants to do something to Prince Xiao's mansion, or forcibly sends people to quarantine somewhere? Then I won't be able to take care of Zhiyao."
Xiao Yanjing's heart was as hard as iron. "So take Zhiyao away now, and you can take good care of her yourself. At most, I will let these two maids go with you."
"Prince!"
Both maids were terrified.
They didn't dare to speak just now, but they were worried, hoping that Xiao Yanjing could persuade Doctor Li to take Li Zhiyao away, so that they wouldn't have to serve Li Zhiyao.
Who knew that the prince would actually let them go with him!
They looked at Li Zhiyao again. After drinking the water, Li Zhiyao seemed to be in much better spirits. She looked towards them, and the ulcers on her face were more clearly visible.
The two maids' faces turned even paler.
"Xiao Yanjing, you, you want to drive me away--" Li Zhiyao looked at Xiao Yanjing, her eyes almost popping out with anger, but she was already very tired after saying half a sentence, and now she simply didn't have the energy to argue with Xiao Yanjing anymore.
"I'm doing this for your own good."
Xiao Yanjing just held on to this point.
He now felt disgusted if he looked at Li Zhiyao for even a second.
If it weren’t for Li Zhiyao, he would never have broken off the engagement with Fu Zhaoning!
He is definitely not like this now. All the glory of Fu Zhaoning belongs to him. The amazing thing that others see about Fu Zhaoning now is all for him.
Therefore, all the added glory belongs to him, Xiao Yanjing.
Why should he envy and be jealous of Xiao Lanyuan now?
Even if it was Prince Xiao who contracted the disease, if Fu Zhaoning was his wife now, they would not be so scared!
Didn’t you see that Xiao Lanyuan, who had been locked up in jail for a few days, was now as calm as if nothing had happened?
The Emperor also said that no one could enter or leave Prince Jun’s Mansion as they pleased, but look at what’s happening now?
Doesn’t Fu Zhaoning still do whatever he wants?
He really wants Fu Zhaoning like that!
If there hadn't been Li Zhiyao, Fu Zhaoning would be his Crown Princess now, instead of a waste like Li Zhiyao!
When he thought of this, Xiao Yanjing looked at Li Zhiyao with hatred in his eyes.
Li Zhiyao met his gaze, and it felt like she was touched by ice. Her heart went cold.
Is this the brother Xiao whom she has loved for so many years? Although she has quarreled with him for the past two years, it was at this moment that she felt a chill that went straight to her bones.
Li Zhiyao also hated Xiao Yanjing for a moment.
"You want to send me away, but I won't--" go.
Before she finished her words, Xiao Yanjing interrupted her and looked at Doctor Li. "Everyone in the capital may be in danger because of this disease. If you can come up with a cure, your prestige will definitely increase."
Doctor Li was about to scold him, but when he heard what he said, his voice paused.
Xiao Yanjing continued, "But if you have never come into contact with this kind of patient, how can you come up with a prescription and medicine? Right now, Li Zhiyao may have just contracted this disease, and it should be very mild. You can do research while treating her. When the time comes, you can promote the cured Li Zhiyao, and the emperor will think highly of you."
"Look at these maids. They serve Li Zhiyao personally. Are they okay? This shows that this disease can only be contracted through close contact. You can go and prove this point. The spread of the disease outside is too serious now. We need you to stabilize the people's hearts."
Fearing that Doctor Li might also be afraid of being infected by Li Zhiyao, Xiao Yanjing said this much.
The two maids looked terrified again.
The prince said so, would Doctor Li let them try to get close to the prince's wife again? No, they are very scared.
And they are safe only because they haven't been close to the Crown Prince's Consort in the past few days, right?
"This..." Doctor Li was a little moved.
It was a huge blow to Fu Zhaoning after he joined the Great Medical Association. If he could really seize this opportunity and make some great achievements, even if they were not big, but just happened to hit the emperor's heart, that would be a good thing!
Doctor Li had just returned to the capital and had not heard many rumors about the disease, so he did not think it was a big deal yet.
Even if it was syphilis, as far as he knew, as long as it was not too serious, there was still a chance of cure.
Even if it cannot be cured, it is not that dangerous for the doctor who treats it.
So he wasn't that scared.
Looking at Li Zhiyao's face, which was already a little deformed and festering, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! I'll be yours. Take her back and treat her well!"
Xiao Yanjing breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't let him see his condition.
"She is lucky to have a father like you who is a miracle doctor." Xiao Yanjing immediately asked the two maids to pack up Li Zhiyao's bag and send the father and daughter out of Prince Xiao's mansion.
"We must suppress the news and say that Doctor Li came back from Dahe and missed his daughter, so he took her back to stay for a while." Xiao Yanjing said to the servants.
