Inside Tonghe Pharmacy.
Qi Zhen frowned as he looked at the special mark in the lower right corner of the envelope. This mark was drawn by the founder of the Divine Physician Sect and has been passed down to this day. Only the sect leader and the spiritual healer can draw this mark themselves.
So this letter really was written by the psychic healer. Could it be that the psychic healer is really in Kyoto?
Qi Zhen put down the envelope, looked up at Doctor Li, and asked, "Li Yuanjing, how did the Spirit Doctor find you?"
The tone of the question was noticeably softer.
Dr. Li simply said, "I met him by chance when I was out seeking medical treatment."
So, he was an insignificant person who was expelled from the Divine Doctor's Sect, yet he still received the attention of the Spirit Doctor, who even wrote down a secret manual for him. Even if he worked hard for decades, he might not receive such treatment. Unexpectedly, being expelled from the Divine Doctor's Sect turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
Qi Zhen's expression darkened involuntarily.
"Since the healer is unwilling to come forward, I will not force him."
Qi Zhen got up and left.
Doctor Li suddenly called out, "Sect Leader Qi."
Qi Zhen stopped in his tracks and turned to look at her. "What is it?"
After hesitating for a long time, Dr. Li finally spoke, "Is she alright now?"
Qi Zhen indifferently withdrew his gaze and walked forward, saying, "She's fine."
As Doctor Li watched Qi Zhen's departing figure, his heart sank. If he was doing well, then so be it.
Three days later.
Mu Chenshuang got up early in the morning, and Linglong and Honghua helped her with her washing and dressing.
She wore an embroidered azure cloud pattern, a flowing embroidered skirt that trailed on the ground, with a bow tied at the waist with soft gold silk. Her hair was styled in a low bun with a pearl and gold hairpin inserted at an angle, making her appear tall, alluring, and captivating, without showing any signs of pregnancy.
“Today is a flower viewing banquet, and the other young ladies will surely be dressed in their finest attire. Princess, isn’t your attire too simple and plain?” Honghua said.
Linglong retorted, "Even if you only wear a plain dress, Miss, you can still outshine all the other ladies. Why do you need to dress up specially to compete with other ladies?"
"That's true."
Before leaving home.
Linglong draped a coat over her shoulders.
Although the weather is gradually warming up and the sun is shining brightly today, the temperature is still quite low.
"Miss, you should be more careful," Linglong reminded her worriedly, fearing that those who had conflicts with her might cause trouble for her.
Mu Chenshuang smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll be fine. You should also go and learn more from Doctor Li today."
"I know."
Inside the Imperial Garden.
The invited ladies from prominent families arrived one after another, each dressed in gorgeous attire and stunningly beautiful. Rather than a flower-viewing banquet, it was more like a battlefield for women, where they secretly compared themselves, vying to outshine each other and wearing the most luxurious clothes and jewelry, all wanting to be the most eye-catching and enviable person.
When Feng Anxue and Xiao Qingyu appeared, they could only be described as royal and magnificent.
Xiao Qingyu didn't dare to overshadow Feng Anxue, so her attire was more understated compared to Feng Anxue's, but she could still hear the praises around her, satisfying her vanity.
Everyone paid their respects.
"Greetings, Your Highness, Consort Xiao."
Today, Feng Anxue wore a magnificent silk and satin dress, a light blue wide-sleeved fairy skirt, adorned with pearl hairpins and glass ornaments, her makeup exquisite, her beauty dazzling, and her proud temperament exuding the noble air of a princess.
Upon seeing Feng Anxue, some people whispered among themselves, "I've heard that Princess Anxue's birth mother was a beauty who enjoyed His Majesty's favor. Now that we see Princess Anxue, it's clear that Madam An was a stunning beauty."
"So, in your opinion, who is better, Princess Anxue or Princess Weiyang?" the noblewoman asked cautiously.
Now everyone knows the rumors about Princess Weiyang and Crown Prince Junheng. Crown Prince Junheng is not interested in women, and he has never even given Princess Anxue a second glance, but he is different when it comes to Princess Weiyang.
"If we really compare them, I think Princess Weiyang is better. Although Princess Anxue is beautiful, Princess Weiyang is a martial artist and has been on the battlefield. She is not only beautiful, but also has a unique heroic charm. Even without makeup, she is still stunning."
"So, when Princess Weiyang insisted on divorcing the Crown Prince, did she really already have an affair with Crown Prince Junheng?"
Rumors about Mu Chenshuang having an affair with Fu Junheng when she was the Crown Princess were widely circulated in elite circles, which were obviously deliberately spread by someone.
A noblewoman scoffed, "I think it's pretty much true. She realized she couldn't win over the Crown Prince of Xilan, so she went to seduce the Crown Prince of Junheng. I doubt the Crown Prince of Junheng values her; he might just be playing around with her. So what's the use of being beautiful if you can't win a man's heart? You'll still be abandoned."
"Alas, it's a pity for General Shen. I hope he will wake up soon and see her true colors, lest he end up picking up trash."
