Chapter 46: Thank you, I will listen to the princess
Lin Miaoyin lay on the couch, tossing and turning but unable to fall asleep.
She thought it would be a simple matter to inquire about the origin of the gold ring, but she didn't expect that Emperor Ming and Beigong You would both remain silent.
What happened to this ring?
She suddenly sat up from the couch and scratched her hair irritably.
Was she going to watch Emperor Ming walking around with the ring she gave to Fanfan right before her eyes and not be able to find him?
Seeing the falling hair on her palm, she felt powerless.
Yuzhu heard the noise and came over, rubbing her sleepy eyes. "Princess, it's so late, why haven't you slept yet?"
"I'm fine, you should go to sleep." Lin Miaoyin then realized that she had disturbed her.
"Princess, are you in a bad mood? I will stay here with you."
"It's okay, I was just thinking about Maidong's injury." Lin Miaoyin stared at the ceiling of the couch.
As far as she knew, in the Shengjing area, only Nanhu Lake in the southeast corner had poisonous snakes, so Maidong was very likely to have gone there.
But there, besides the poisonous snakes, there was also a group of bandits.
His leg was still injured, but he was sent to such a dangerous place by Beigong You. It can be seen that the situation was urgent.
Mai Dong is the person who has followed Beigong You for the longest time and is also the person he trusts the most.
Whenever Beigong You encountered difficult or confidential matters, it was Maidong who handled them.
She remembered that when Beigong You went to the south of the Yangtze River last year, he brought Ophiopogon japonicus with him.
Maybe she could start with Ophiopogon japonicus.
Yuzhu quickly brought bedding and slept under the bed.
Lin Miaoyin was completely sleepless.
"Princess, let me sing a song for you. In the past, when you were sad, as long as I sang to comfort you, you would fall asleep quickly."
Lin Miaoyin couldn't help but laugh.
She is not a child anymore, so why does she need someone to coax her to sleep?
However, what she didn't expect was that she fell asleep to Yuzhu's singing not long after.
Have a good night.
…
The next day, early morning.
News came from the front yard that Maidong had woken up.
Lin Miaoyin had breakfast and rushed over with Yuzhu.
When Mai Dong saw her, he knelt down to thank her despite his injured leg, "Princess, you saved my life. I will never forget your kindness."
Lin Miaoyin immediately stepped forward to help him up, "Your leg is still injured, don't move yet."
"It's okay. I know what I'm doing." Mai Dong stood up and bowed to Lin Miaoyin.
"Have you taken the medicine I left for you yesterday?"
Mai Dong nodded and said, "I've eaten it. I feel much better now."
Lin Miaoyin went forward to check and found that the toxins in Ophiopogon japonicus' body had been cleared out. Only the area around the snake bite was still swollen. Recovery was only a matter of time.
She felt a little relieved.
I started thinking about how to mention the ring to him.
The attitudes of Emperor Ming and Beigong You forced her to be cautious.
Mai Dong seemed to see her embarrassment and asked with concern, "Princess, what do you want to see me for today?"
"Do you still remember the gold ring that the emperor was wearing?" Lin Miaoyin thought about it and decided to get straight to the point. "Last year, you went to Jiangnan with the prince."
"I have some impression of that ring."
Mai Dong did not ask Lin Miaoyin's purpose, but only said: "What does the princess want me to do?"
"I wonder where that ring came from."
"This may be difficult." Mai Dong looked solemn. All those who knew the origin of the ring were dead, but he still agreed. "But I will secretly inquire for the princess."
Since the princess came directly to him, she must have bypassed the prince.
Logically, he shouldn't have hidden it from the prince, but the woman in front of him saved him, and he couldn't refuse her request.
Just this once!
The stone in Lin Miaoyin's heart suddenly fell to the ground.
Unexpectedly, Mai Dong agreed without her saying anything. From what he said, he would help her keep it a secret from Beigong You.
She knew Maidong and knew that what he did was an exception.
"Thank you very much!" she said gratefully.
"You're welcome, Princess. This is what I should do." Mai Dong bowed.
Lin Miaoyin gave a few more instructions and was about to leave.
Unexpectedly, just as she reached the door, Mai Dong called her, "Princess, may I ask you a favor?"
"Guardian Mai, please speak."
"I would like to ask you to treat my injured leg." Mai Dong said as he looked at the broken bone.
"Have you figured it out?"
Maidong nodded.
Originally he had no intention of treating his leg.
He was a martial artist and knew very well how serious his injuries were. Even if Zhang Miaochun came, he might not be able to heal him.
Moreover, ever since leaving the battlefield, he has always wanted to retreat behind the scenes.
This is a good opportunity to take a break.
But now the prince's great cause has not been accomplished, and Feng Ming and others are too young and impulsive to handle the heavy responsibility. He is worried about handing the prince over to them.
In addition, after this near-death experience, he became more open-minded about many things.
After being bitten by the snake, all the doctors believed that he was doomed to die and were even unwilling to see him.
But the princess miraculously pulled him back from the Yama Palace.
Why not give it a try?
The worst outcome would be losing the leg.
"You were bitten on this injured leg, which is close to the affected area. It is still swollen. I am afraid it is impossible to treat your leg today. How about this, we set the time for two days later, when the swelling will be basically gone. What do you think?"
"I will listen to the princess."
After setting the time, Lin Miaoyin went back to Shaohuayuan to prepare.
Although she is a leader in the surgical area, when she was in the hospital before, she was only responsible for the main operation, and other colleagues assisted her in counting instruments and giving anesthesia. At least six or seven people worked together in one operation, and she had never been responsible for an operation alone.
What's more, it was difficult to achieve sterility in such an environment in ancient times.
This is a test for her.
…
Backyard kitchen.
When Granny Sun saw Steward Liu coming out of the kitchen with a lunch box, her face suddenly turned cold. "What were you doing sneaking around like that?"
Manager Liu bumped into Granny Sun and was startled. "Why are you here?"
"I still want to ask you something." Granny Sun looked at the food box in his hand, "Where are you going to send it to?"
"Where else can I send it to?" Manager Liu said and was about to leave.
Granny Sun puffed out her chest and stopped the man, "I'm telling you, as long as I'm here, you can't even think about sending anything to Shaohuayuan!"
"What are you talking about?"
"The prince gave an order that day, not allowing us to send food to Shaohuayuan, and you actually dared to send it secretly? Have you ever thought about the consequences of disobeying the prince? Do you not want to stay in the palace anymore?"
"Your Highness was just speaking in anger, why do you take it so seriously?"
After the princess came back from the palace that day, the servants in the mansion obviously restrained themselves a lot and no longer dared to be rude to the princess.
How come this old woman still can’t understand?
Even if the prince disliked her, she was still the mistress of the palace and would not tolerate them offending her.
"I don't care. We will do whatever the prince tells us to do." Mrs. Sun said as she tried to snatch the food box from Manager Liu.
While the two were fighting over it, the food box accidentally fell to the ground.
The food inside was scattered all over the floor, and even the dishes were smashed to pieces.
Manager Liu pushed the woman away and said, "You, you woman... you are really unreasonable!"
