Chapter 117 How could she work so hard just to be a concubine?
The next day.
As soon as Yun Zhao came out from Concubine Yi's place, he saw Xie Jingmo waiting at the door.
She pretended not to see it and was about to take a detour when someone grabbed her collar from behind.
Yun Zhao turned his head away in annoyance, he really wanted to curse!
But this is Concubine Yi's residence, and Concubine Yi likes quietness, so she cannot ignore it.
He had no choice but to lower his voice and shouted angrily, "Xie Jingmo! If you are crazy, can you understand the situation? Do you see clearly where this place is?! You are not afraid of death, but I am!"
Xie Jingmo directly carried Yun Zhao out of the palace and said, "Ruyu is not feeling well. Come with me to see her."
Yun Zhao was extremely shocked.
"Xie General, you should know your limits when it comes to your willfulness, okay? I am the imperial physician in the palace now, and I cannot go out to treat patients without permission."
Xie Jingmo said neatly, "I have told the emperor,"
Yun Zhao sighed and had no choice but to pull up his clothes and walk out.
"Are you sure your sweetheart would be willing to see me?"
Yun Zhao even suspected that Xie Jingmo was deliberately trying to make things difficult for others.
Otherwise, why would he ask her, the person Xie Jingmo had slept with for seven years, to treat his wife-to-be?
Xie Jingmo walked out without looking away, "Who do you think you are? When you go, just focus on seeing patients. Ruyu is a very docile person and won't be unhappy."
When they were about to arrive at the Lin family compound, Xie Jingmo stood at the door and told Yun Zhao seriously, "Go in and see the patient, and don't say anything else."
Yun Zhao nodded.
Xie Jingmo's face finally showed a look of relief.
As I entered the yard, I heard coughing sounds from inside.
The maid came out with a smile, and was stunned when she saw Yun Zhao.
"This is the Imperial Physician Yun from the palace. He's quite skilled. I'll call him over to see your young lady."
The maid stood at the door, the smile on her face frozen for a few seconds, "General, it's thoughtful of you, but our young lady has already seen the imperial physician, so we don't need to bother Imperial Physician Yun, right?"
Xie Jingmo said, "It will make you feel more at ease if you take a look."
When Yun Zhao heard this, he turned his head and looked at Xie Jingmo.
The latter was completely unaware and said to Yun Zhao, "Go in."
Yun Zhao nodded and walked in with the medicine box.
The yard was nicely decorated. Lin Ruyu was leaning against the head of the bed, her face unpainted, looking weak and broken.
"Excuse me, Imperial Physician Yun." Lin Ruyu stretched out her hand and coughed softly. She glanced at Xie Jingmo who was standing outside the door and smiled weakly. "Jingmo, you're just too considerate. It's just a cough, nothing serious. I'm really sorry to trouble Imperial Physician Yun to come here."
Yun Zhao heard something, but she didn't say anything. She just lowered her head to feel her pulse and replied calmly, "Thank you, General, for your concern. I'll take a look at you first."
Lin Ruyu looked at Yun Zhao's flawless expression and curled her lips. "Actually, there's nothing to see, it's just a common cough. But for Jing Mo's peace of mind, I'd like to trouble you to take a look. I previously asked an old Chinese doctor to take a look, but he said it was just excessive worry. Miss Yun, just tell Jing Mo this later."
Lin Ruyu looked at Yun Zhao’s porcelain-white face.
I concluded that she was so young that nothing could be seen.
I think Yun Zhao was able to enter the Imperial Medical Bureau because of Xie Jingmo's connections.
Too
If a woman cannot marry into a good family, doesn't she have to go out and show her face in public?
Thinking of this, Lin Ruyu wanted to laugh with some pride, but she covered her face with a handkerchief, appearing weak again.
Xie Jingmo asked outside, "How is it?"
Yun Zhao took the pulse again, his eyes indifferent.
Lin Ruyu smiled weakly, "Miss Yun, I feel embarrassed that you are so careful. Just tell Jing Mo that I am fine, so that he can rest assured."
Xie Jingmo frowned when he heard this outside.
Then Yun Zhao inside loosened his hand that was taking the pulse.
"How?" Xie Jingmo asked.
Yun Zhao stood beside the bed, looking at Lin Ruyu with a slightly gloomy gaze.
Lin Ruyu felt a little timid when being stared at, and her smile was unnatural. "Miss Yun? How is it?"
Yun Zhao was silent for a long time.
Xie Jingmo frowned, his tone unconsciously becoming more serious. "What's the situation? Tell me, is it... serious?"
Yun Zhao was struggling internally.
After a long time, he said softly, "Miss Lin, there is nothing wrong."
Quiet.
Deathly quiet.
After a long time, Lin Ruyu curled her lips and said, "Jing Mo, did you hear that? Doctor Yun said that I didn't listen."
As she spoke, Lin Ruyu wanted to hold Yun Zhao's hand.
Yun Zhao stepped back.
Lin Ruyu's hand hung in the air awkwardly, and after a moment, she smiled gently.
"Thank you, Doctor Yun, thank you for putting Jing Mo at ease."
Xie Jingmo stood at the door, his face gloomy and cold, and said to Yun Zhao: "Come out!"
Yun Zhao walked out.
Xie Jingmo's voice was so loud that the entire Lin family compound could hear it. "She's ignorant. You're a doctor, aren't you ignorant too? Yun Zhao, you're a doctor. You told me before that when you were studying medicine, you swore that you would never say this to a patient again in your life. What's wrong with you now? Are you telling the truth?"
Lin Ruyu leaned on the bed and coughed twice.
I heard Yun Zhao say outside: "I am telling the truth, she is indeed healthy."
Xie Jingmo was furious. "Yun Zhao, do you think this is fun? I trusted you, so I gave my fiancée to you, and this is how you treat patients? You are unworthy of being an imperial physician!"
Yun Zhao knew that telling the truth would lead to this outcome.
Compared to Bai Yueguang, her words were nothing.
She also knew what Lin Ruyu's intention was, which was just to become the general's wife as soon as possible.
During the few seconds of silence after taking the pulse, she also thought that if she followed what Lin Ruyu had just said and told Xie Jingmo, everyone would be happy.
But she swore in front of her ancestors to tell only the truth!
She couldn't break her oath.
"Forget it, go ahead. I'll find other people to see later!" Xie Jingmo waved his hands irritably.
He swung his hand with great force, and the back of his hand slapped Yun Zhao in the face.
Very powerful.
Yun Zhao was stunned for a moment.
Xie Jingmo was also stunned, "You...I..."
Yun Zhao picked up the medicine box and said, "Since the general has a better doctor, I will leave first."
Yun Zhao gritted his teeth and walked out of the Lin family courtyard.
Lin Ruyu smiled triumphantly in the room.
She even asked in a delicate voice, "Jing Mo, what happened? Miss Yun seems to care about you, so don't blame her."
After he finished speaking, he coughed pitifully twice. "Jing Mo, I know about you and Miss Yun. She is like this today, I think she has you in her heart. I am not angry with her, but I am grateful that she has been with you in the bitter cold of the frontier for seven years. Jing Mo, go and tell Miss Yun that if she is willing, I agree that you can take her as your wife and I as your concubine."
Lin Ruyu was just saying it casually.
Xie Jingmo quieted down. He looked at Lin Ruyu and asked, "Do you really think so?"
Lin Ruyu's heart skipped a beat, and her face turned pale. "Ah?..."
The maid caught Lin Ruyu's gaze and immediately came over with red eyes and said, "Miss, what are you talking about? I won't let you treat yourself like this. How can you be my concubine? Didn't you swear to be my wife for the rest of your life?"
After saying this, Lin Ruyu started coughing violently.
Xie Jingmo put all this behind him and went to see another doctor.
Lin Ruyu buried herself in the cold water, letting the biting water chill her bones.
She works so hard, how can she just be a concubine?
