When Physician Li arrived, he only knew that the person who summoned him was the third young master of the Marquis of Jianning's mansion. Little did he expect that upon arriving here, he would discover that Xiao Yan, the heir of the Duke of Ning's mansion, was also present!
He wanted to leave right then and there.
Getting involved with this little brat will only bring you trouble.
Since they were already there, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and step forward: "...Greetings, Your Highness."
Xiao Yan gave a curt "hmm" in response.
Song Huai, standing to the side, gestured anxiously: "Hurry up and take your pulse. Don't you know why we called you here?"
"Yes, yes." Pah! Pah!
Money is hard to earn, and life is tough.
Just as Physician Li was about to step forward, Sanwa and Chunsheng stood in front of Shen Qiyin's sickbed at the same time, stopping him.
Chunsheng put his hands on his hips and said fiercely, "You're not allowed to come near our second-in-command!"
“You were invited by him. Who knows if you two were in cahoots and plotted to harm him?”
Upon hearing this, Physician Li looked at Song Huai helplessly.
But she was secretly overjoyed.
The secret passage was blocked skillfully, cleverly, and brilliantly.
The young master Xiao stood there like a god of death. Who would want to take on this hot potato? If he really killed someone, wouldn't he be able to enjoy a seven-day trip to the Eagle Pavilion's dark prison?
Those with good fortune might get out, but someone as unlucky as him would have been stuck inside.
Song Huai had no idea what Physician Li was thinking. He was too anxious to explain to Sanwa and Chunsheng, "What good would it do me to kill her?"
"Didn't you hear what she just said? If anything happens to her, she'll kill me."
He's not tired of living.
Sanwa still wouldn't have it: "Everyone knows you're the son of a marquis. Even if Lord Xiao doesn't forgive you, who knows if Marquis Jianning will intervene? In the end, won't we be the ones who suffer?"
"Besides, it's my own senior sister, I'll save her myself, I don't need your crocodile tears and fake compassion!"
Seeing how wary they were of him, Song Huai felt utterly speechless.
Hearing the comments from the people who were blocking the entrance to watch the commotion, he felt even more furious.
"Tsk tsk tsk, no wonder this doctor doesn't trust him. If I were him, I wouldn't trust him either. Who knows what kind of bad ideas he's up to with all that talk?"
"That's right, to say that Doctor Sanwa is... well, that's... clearly a heartless person..."
"Didn't you hear what Doctor Er Ya said just now? He hates Doctor Er Ya because he couldn't save Miss Feng who fell into the water. Think about it carefully. If he had really saved her, what other choice would Miss Feng have but to marry him?"
"Pah! What trash! I can't stand these arrogant young masters who bully others!"
...
Among these people were those who had long been grateful to Guangrentang and genuinely felt indignant on their behalf.
Of course, there were also some people who were simply jealous of high-born scions like Song Huai.
While these people were discussing this, Dazhuang quietly took Shen Xiyin's pulse.
To prove his innocence, Song Huai even mustered up the courage to ask Xiao Yan to intervene: "Young Master Xiao, I sincerely want to save people, but they won't listen to me. Why don't you explain?"
Xiao Yan's voice was cold and clear: "Are you trying to drag me down with you?"
"I... I wouldn't dare."
"If someone dies at his hands, is it you who killed him or me?"
"this……"
At this moment, Dazhuang suddenly spoke up: "Let this imperial physician take your pulse and check. We'll keep an eye on things from the side. With so many people here, he can't do anything wrong."
Sanwa and Chunsheng both changed color!
"Senior brother?"
"Boss!"
Dazhuang glanced at them and said, "It's alright."
After saying that, he raised his hand, signaling Physician Li to come forward and take Shen Qiyin's pulse.
Physician Li did not dare to make any moves, but instead looked cautiously at Xiao Yan beside him.
Judging from what this little darling just said, he clearly didn't want me to treat this Miss Shen, so how could I dare to approach him?
But this time Xiao Yan did not stop him.
Knowing that he had changed his mind, Physician Li stepped forward tremblingly and nervously took Shen Qiyin's pulse.
The more he examined patients, the more restless he became.
Finally, he simply knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly to Xiao Yan, saying, "This humble official is incompetent, please forgive me, Your Highness."
"This girl's pulse is so weak that it's almost impossible to detect. I, I am truly powerless to help."
Upon hearing this, Song Huai felt a chill run from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
He glanced at Xiao Yan subconsciously, saw that his expression was deep and unfathomable, and then ran out.
If we don't run, we're going to die!
He figured he should at least go back to the manor first. After all, they were father and son, and even if his father was furious, he couldn't just stand by and watch Xiao Yan kill him. As for how his father would deal with him afterwards, he could only wait and see.
The result was...
They didn't take a single step out.
Just as he got into a starting stance, Feng Liu tripped him with one leg and he fell face-first into the mud with a "thud".
Unfortunately, his mouth landed right on the threshold, knocking out one of his front teeth. He flew out with a "whoosh" and landed in the crowd of onlookers.
"Ah... Won't you, Won't you..." His mouth was full of blood, and he spoke in a "bubbling" sound, like a boiling pot, making it impossible to understand a single word.
He struggled to his feet, blood mixed with saliva dripping all over him, soaking the front of his clothes.
He wanted to find his teeth, but Feng Liu wouldn't allow it, grabbing his shoulders and immobilizing him.
"What are you doing?!" As soon as he spoke, blood gushed out from the gap in his front teeth: "Waaah... I'm looking for you, I'm looking for you..."
