Ni Yueshan tapped her fingers on the table. Seeing that both of them looked calm and not knowing what Ni Yueshan was about to say, she smiled awkwardly.
"If what I'm about to announce causes any discomfort to you two, you still can't hit anyone!"
Duan Gouqiong stroked his chin and looked at Ni Yueshan suspiciously.
"What on earth did you do to offend us that would cause them to be so angry that they would beat us up?"
Shao Lecheng coughed and said, "I have a very high standard and won't hit anyone randomly."
Ni Yueshan smiled awkwardly, stood up, looked at the two of them seriously, and slowly said, "In fact, the prince has never been truly disabled since the beginning. He just suffered a minor injury..."
Ni Yueshan's words were simple and clear, and everyone could understand it at once. Wasn't it just a trick he had played on people in the first place?
Shao Lecheng and Duan Gouqiong exchanged a glance, and then Duan Gouqiong put his hands on his hips and said, "You even hid it from me and Lecheng!"
Ni Yueshan immediately bowed deeply: "Yes, if you want to beat me or scold me, come on!"
Duan Gouqiong finally snorted in disdain: "Why fight? How dare I? Aren't you pregnant with the royal child?"
Shao Lecheng's face was full of confusion: "So what I, the prince, did was really wronged?"
Ni Yueshan nodded awkwardly: "A little."
"Ni Yueshan, you and Jing Yuchen are going too far!" Shao Lecheng put his hands on his hips and stared at Ni Yueshan with an extremely angry expression.
Ni Yueshan chuckled: "Shao Lecheng, you've been with Gou Qiong for a long time, look at you, you can even put your hands on your hips!"
Shao Lecheng realized it later and quickly withdrew his arm.
Ni Yueshan stood up and said, "At the beginning, I pretended to be injured in order to reject the position of Crown Prince. I never thought that the position of Crown Prince would become yours! But I believe that soon, someone else will come to take your place..."
Shao Lecheng rolled his eyes at Ni Yueshan and said, "Should I be happy about what you said, or...sad?"
"...Alright, feel free to do whatever you want. Anyway, you've been a crown prince before, which is a bit enviable. I'll be leaving now."
Ni Yueshan patted Shao Lecheng on the shoulder and said, "Don't take it to heart!"
Afterwards, Ni Yueshan walked away. Shao Lecheng and Duan Gouqiong followed silently behind to see him off. Ni Yueshan said, "Don't see him off."
After Ni Yueshan disappeared, Shao Lecheng sighed: "I never thought that I would be crown prince for such a long time, but he gave up the position on purpose."
"If only Jing Chengzhi were still alive!" He said very depressedly, then looked at Duan Gouqiong: "Are you tired of being the Crown Princess?"
Duan Gouqiong rolled her eyes at Jing Yuchen and said, "Is there any difference? This princess has been honored since she was born. The position of Crown Princess is just a difference in title for me. If you're tired of it, then find a way to give it up."
Ni Yueshan returned to the house. Jing Yuchen was waiting for Ni Yueshan to come back. When he saw Ni Yueshan, he immediately asked, "What happened?"
"After I said that, although they were surprised, they didn't get angry. Don't worry, they are not narrow-minded!"
Jing Yuchen breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good!"
The next day, the imperial physician came to the palace and asked to examine Jing Yuchen's leg, while the palace servants went to ask Mr. Xu to give him a proper treatment in front of him.
Jing Yuchen looked at the old men gathered in front of him, talking among themselves, and felt an inexplicable pressure in his heart.
Nanny Bai brought Elder Xu to Jing Yuchen's room and said, "I wonder if Elder Xu has any good ideas? How can I cure this leg?"
Mr. Xu was still yawning, obviously he hadn't rested enough.
He sat down next to her, picked up the water without any hesitation and poured it into his mouth.
Afterwards, he gargled his throat and spit out the water.
"This leg is easy to deal with, but... with so many people surrounding it, it's meaningless. Let me do it. Give me some time?"
Nanny Bai's eyes lit up. This meant that Jing Yuchen could be saved!
"Okay, everyone follow me out, let Elder Xu treat Prince Chen's leg!"
Nanny Bai took the lead and walked out, and the imperial doctors had to leave one by one.
Jing Yuchen sat in a wheelchair, his eyes flickering: "Why does Master Xu repeatedly help this junior to cover up his lies?"
"If I wanted to cover up your lie, I would say you were hopeless!"
Jing Yuchen: “…”
Elder Xu chuckled. "Why are you pretending to be disabled? Do you think you can avoid the throne?"
Jing Yuchen frowned. He didn't like what Mr. Xu said...
It's like announcing a prophecy!
