308 True or False, Who Knows
The Ninth Prince's anger was so obvious that the imperial physician and the female physician knelt at his feet, trembling with fear and unable to speak clearly.
Feng Qingchen raised his eyelids and said sarcastically, "How could it bleed so much if it's not deep? Do you think I have a lot of blood?"
The wound hurt twice, both because of the Ninth Prince. How could Feng Qingchen not be annoyed?
The Ninth Prince's eyes darkened, and he felt a pain in his heart as he looked at Feng Qingchen, who was as calm as autumn water under the candlelight.
He hurt her after all!
The Ninth Prince took a step back and regained his usual calm and aloofness. "Doctor An, please get up. I know you are good at treating injuries. I will leave Miss Feng to you. I want Miss Feng to be as good as new."
Doctor An had a bitter face and could only respond. He was secretly worried that such a deep wound could never be healed. The Ninth Prince didn't care about that. He said this and strode out of the palace. His steps were urgent, as if he had forgotten something important...
Looking at the Ninth Uncle's back, Feng Qingchen chuckled and closed her eyes to hide the sarcasm in her eyes.
It's too late to show concern after the fact.
When the Ninth Prince used her as a raft in the villa, he should have expected this day to come. It would not be so easy to escape unscathed.
Taking a deep breath and suppressing the anger in her heart, Feng Qingchen said calmly: "Doctor An, don't take Uncle Nine's words to heart. I understand this injury. You should do what you should do. Even if it leaves a scar, it is my business."
Feng Qingchen didn't care much about the wound on the top of his head. He would just cover it with his hair. It was better to have the wound on the top of his head than on his face.
Besides, once you are injured, you are injured. Even if you are completely healed, the wound is still there. No matter how skilled the doctor is, he cannot heal the wound that has been suffered.
Doctor An wiped the sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, someone who understands.
…
"The Ninth Prince went out in a hurry just to find an imperial physician for Feng Qingchen. What else did he do?" The emperor looked thoughtful. Even at this moment, the emperor still did not believe that the Ninth Prince had true feelings for Feng Qingchen.
The gray-robed eunuch knelt in the middle, thought for a moment and shook his head: "In reply to the emperor, the Ninth Prince did nothing except find a doctor for Miss Feng, and the Ninth Prince also let Miss Feng bathe in the bathtub.
The bathing pool was a treasured place to the Ninth Prince. It was filled with natural hot spring water which was very good for the body. The prince had once asked to bathe in the bathing pool, but the Ninth Prince gently turned him away.
"So it seems that Old Nine is really serious about this." Behind other people's backs, the emperor did not hide his dislike for Dong Lingjiu at all.
"It's hard for me to say. I just feel that the Ninth Prince either did it too hastily or on purpose." The eunuch below was the emperor's confidant. He understood the emperor's thoughts and said what the emperor was thinking.
"My ninth brother has always been shrewd. He can tell the truth from the false and the false from the true. Even I can't see through him." The emperor selfishly hoped that Dong Lingjiu would be interested in Feng Qingchen, but he didn't believe that a woman could make his ninth uncle make a big mistake.
For so many years, the emperor could not find any weakness in Dong Lingjiu. Feng Qingchen was the first one, the first weakness of Dong Lingjiu to be exposed, but this weakness was too obvious, so obvious that the emperor could not believe it.
The eunuch did not say anything, but just buried his head even lower. The Ninth Prince was a thorn in the emperor's heart. The emperor had always wanted to get rid of him, but he could never find a good opportunity.
Feng Qingchen is a good opportunity, but the emperor still doesn't believe that the Ninth Uncle will lose his composure because of a woman.
Today in the council hall, when he hit the ground but the Ninth Prince didn't make any movement, the emperor was more and more certain that Feng Qingchen was just a target. However, when the Ninth Prince personally intercepted people and called in the imperial physician, the emperor became suspicious again.
"Ninth brother, ninth brother, I am increasingly unable to understand you." The emperor never underestimated his ninth uncle. He never believed that everything his ninth uncle did was based on his nature. Every move of his ninth uncle must have a deep meaning.
It was not until later that the emperor realized that underestimating the opponent was a very foolish thing, but overestimating the opponent was even more foolish. It was because he overestimated the Ninth Prince that he lost the initiative and was ultimately defeated.
At this moment, a eunuch came to report that the Ninth Prince hurried out of the palace and rushed to the residence of His Highness Feng Qian, the envoy of Beiling Kingdom. The emperor thought about it and understood what the Ninth Prince was going to do. Sure enough, half an hour later, the Ninth Prince rushed back to the palace on horseback.
The palace had been locked for a long time, but the Ninth Prince was no one else; he had the freedom to enter and leave the palace, and the Emperor did not stop him.
But when the Ninth Prince rushed to the palace with the medicine he had obtained from Beiling Feng Qian, he found that Feng Qingchen was gone. The Ninth Prince held the medicine bottle, looked at the empty palace, his eyes fell on the chair where Feng Qingchen had sat before, and he smiled bitterly!
What am I doing!
Snap...
The medicine bottle fell to the ground, and the ointment spilled all over the floor. The palace was filled with the elegant fragrance of snow lotus, which did not dissipate for a long time...
As expected of the imperial physician personally selected by the Ninth Prince, Imperial Physician An was indeed an expert in treating external injuries. Feng Qingchen didn't even feel any pain as Imperial Physician An bandaged her wound. Seeing that the palace was about to be locked, Feng Qingchen took the medicine handed to her by Imperial Physician An and hurried out of the palace.
As soon as she arrived at the door, she saw a row of guards waiting for her. They said that they were escorting her back to Feng Mansion on the emperor's orders, and would stay in Feng Mansion to protect her, or to monitor her.
From tomorrow on, she will stay in Feng Mansion to reflect on her mistakes. According to the emperor's order, not only can she not go out, but even visitors are not allowed to visit her.
Feng Qingchen didn't say much and silently accepted the emperor's punishment.
No wonder the Ninth Prince hurriedly dragged her to see the imperial physician. It turned out that the Emperor had done such a thing behind the scenes. Who was the Emperor guarding against?
He boarded the carriage and headed for Feng Mansion under the stars and moon. As soon as the carriage stopped, he heard a commotion outside the Feng Mansion and vaguely heard words like "Duke Ningguo's Mansion", "Lady Jinyang Marquis", "Seeking to see Miss Feng".
The guards obviously disagreed, and the other side refused to give in. The two sides were stuck here. Feng Qingchen didn't want to cause trouble again, but this was her home after all. She sat in the carriage for a long time, and no one asked her to get out. She opened the door and asked, "What happened?"
"I have offended Miss Feng, please forgive me. I came to your house in the middle of the night to ask Miss Feng to see a doctor." Seeing Feng Qingchen coming out, two well-dressed stewards knelt down hurriedly, and a young man in brocade clothes pushed aside the guards and walked towards Feng Qingchen.
"Get out of the way. I am the Prince of Ningguo. How dare you stop me?"
"Young Master, I am here to escort Miss Feng into the palace on the orders of the Emperor." The guard was neither humble nor arrogant. He moved his body and used his strength to push the Young Master of Ningguo away.
Unfortunately, the Prince of Ningguo was not a weak scholar. The four great dukes were all awarded titles based on their military merits. Most of the children in the family liked martial arts and disliked literature. The Prince of Ningguo took two steps back and stood firm.
"I only ask Miss Feng to save people. I mean no offense." The Prince of Ningguo was unaware of what happened during the day. He just thought that this was the emperor's honor to Feng Qingchen. However, because he was eager to save people, his tone was a little unhappy.
The guards had expressionless faces and refused to give in. The two sides were in a stalemate, and there was a vague sign of fighting...
Feng Qingchen already had a head injury, and the noise made it even more painful.
Save someone? Why would they ask her to save someone in the middle of the night? If the Ningguo Mansion wanted to find a doctor, they could just ask the imperial physician. Finding her must not be a good thing...
