Chapter 60 Your Life is Life Too
Ye Lanxin pondered for a moment and then said, "My Lord, I have actually intended to mention this to you for a long time. Over the years, I have always hoped that when they return, we can reconcile and become a complete family. I am even willing to return the position of wife to my sister. Therefore, although I have been using soft words for a long time, I have not considered taking any unkind measures against her."
"She had previously caused a scene at the Yunyang Marquis's residence, causing her father to lose face and causing Chengyun to be punished. At that time, my second brother's wife had been considering seeking revenge through soft words."
"Even if my sister denies it, we are still her siblings and have a blood relationship with Ruan Ci. However, my second brother and sister-in-law do not have this connection with her. If she really intends to target Ruan Ci, the situation will be difficult to reverse."
"Observing Soft Word's behavior recently, she doesn't seem to care about the Marquis and my father."
Ye Lanxin paused suddenly at this point.
Zhou Zhili was extremely anxious and had to ask in person: "So, what are your plans now?"
Ye Lanxin then continued, "It's been a while since Ruanci returned, but she hasn't gone to pay respects to her grandmother. Even though my sister once vowed to sever ties with the Ye family, she wouldn't deny her biological mother. Why not have the Ye family invite her back to pay respects to her ancestors? We can discuss other matters later."
After she finished speaking, Zhou Zhili thought that what she said made sense.
"Let's go to Yunyang Marquis' Mansion in person..."
There were some things that he felt necessary to clarify with his two uncles from the Ye family.
"County Lady, the Zhou family has gone to the Yunyang Marquis' Mansion."
Zang Xia was busy packing things, and when Nong Chun went out to pass the message to Lu Enyan, he happened to learn about the Zhou family's movements.
"The news must have leaked from the palace, but there's only the result, not the cause. They panicked, realizing that I truly considered them my enemies and were looking for ways to deal with me."
Gu Ruanci was not surprised by this, she knew this day would come sooner or later.
Back then, he had sacrificed his mother and himself for the sake of family harmony, and the Yunyang Marquisate and the Jing'an Marquisate still maintained a superficial harmony. However, Zhou Zhili's original plan was to sacrifice only his mother.
Gu Ruanci looked at her hands, then looked outside.
"It's a pity that I'm no longer the six-year-old girl who couldn't protect my mother."
The next day, at Zang’s house.
Gu Ruanci, who was wearing a veil hat when traveling, met Prince Duan Lu Enyan again.
Before she could salute Lu Enyan, someone rushed over and knelt on the ground.
"Little Medical Fairy, thank you for saving my life. I am Xu Xiyan. If you have anything in the future, just follow my instructions..."
Seeing this, the man who caught up also knelt on the ground.
"Thank you, Little Medical Fairy, for saving my brother's life..."
Gu Ruanci recognized that this was the man who almost stopped her from saving people.
"My name is Xu Dongting, and I am willing to serve the Little Medical Immortal."
"I said before that I saved people because of Doctor Zang. If you want to express your gratitude, just thank him..."
Gu Ruanci had seen such scenes many times and did not feel complacent or enjoy it at all.
"Of course I have to thank Imperial Doctor Zang, but I will never forget the life-saving kindness of the Little Medical Immortal..."
Xu Dongting was as steady as before, his eyes firm.
"I see……"
As soon as Gu Ruanci finished speaking, the two brothers kowtowed at the same time: "If the Little Medical Fairy can cure the prince, our lives will be yours..."
Lu Enyan, who was standing by, coughed and said, "Stop embarrassing yourself here, both of you. Go away."
Gu Ruanci also said: "Since I have decided to treat your prince, you don't need to think of any way to reward me. I am not interested in your life. I have received your thanks and requests. Now, can you give me a quiet environment?"
After hearing this, the two brothers immediately got up and disappeared.
Zang Jizhi finally found an opportunity to speak: "Junior Sister, take a look at the things in the room and see if they suit you. Is there anything else you need to buy?"
"Brother, I trust the things you prepared. Anyway, there was a problem with the equipment, which aggravated the condition of the prince. You will die before me..."
Gu Ruanci spoke calmly. Zang Jizhi, who was regarded as a leading figure in the Imperial Physician Department by outsiders, had a kind face.
"My Lord, let's begin."
Gu Runci didn't waste any time and took Lu Enyan's pulse. After that, he washed his hands, asked Lu Enyan to take off his shirt, and began to give him acupuncture without distraction.
Because of long-term illness, Lu Enyan had little flesh on his body, was skinny, and looked pale.
Gu Runci used the flying needle method, and one could hear the sound of silver needles piercing Lu Enyan's body one after another, a bit like the sound of darts.
When the needle was first inserted, Lu Enyan didn't feel anything.
The further he went, the more he could feel the area around the needle insertion site getting hotter and more painful.
He opened his eyes and saw that Gu Ruanci was not observing him, but was concentrating on learning the moves, and then accurately sent the silver needle flying.
Zang Jizhi looked at his junior sister's superb skills and couldn't help but sigh, it is true that there are talented people in every generation.
The treatment lasted for half an hour. Lu Enyan was covered in needles like a hedgehog, with needles all over his body.
Zang Jizhi had helped Lu Enyan with acupuncture in these places before, but he had never felt such a burning sensation as he did today.
After removing the needle, Gu Ruanci took out the porcelain bottle that had been prepared earlier, which contained some pills.
"These were made from bezoar a few days ago. There are only ten of them. I will bring new ones in ten days."
After Lu Enyan took it, he asked, "Give it all to me. What about those women who are in childbirth distress you mentioned earlier?"
"There are still some left, and your life is also a life." This was the only sentence Gu Ruanci said.
Lu Enyan did not feel offended by Gu Runci comparing him with those hypothetical mothers. Instead, he could feel Gu Runci's pure attitude towards this matter.
She really wasn't trying to curry favor with me, but was actually cooperating with me.
"Sure enough, Qin Ji is you, and the one who donated the bezoar is you. You concealed these identities to take revenge on the Zhou family, right?"
