Chapter 65: So You Are the Little Doctor Fairy
It's April and the sun is shining.
The pear and apricot blossoms on the street are about to fall, and the entire Dizhou City is reviving in the spring breeze.
On the way into the palace, Gu Ruanci lifted the curtain of the car and looked at the passers-by outside who were no longer in a hurry.
"County Lady, I heard that the woman who was beaten yesterday was finally allowed to stay. However, the man threatened to sell her to a brothel if she didn't behave herself. After all, his mother still needs someone to take care of her."
Nongchun already knew about this last night, but didn't have time to tell Gu Runci.
"I heard that it was the Yunyang Marquis's son who redeemed the man's sister. After all, she was sold as a concubine, which gave her a bad reputation. The sister refused to return home and later went to the Ye family to work as a maid."
Zang Xia also heard about this, and they all sighed that this sister was really unlucky.
Gu Ruanci was not surprised by this result. After all, no one in the family could stand up to that woman for a long time.
"In my opinion, that man can earn his own money. Judging from the way that woman is dressed, even if she's not rich, she must be able to get by. Why not just give the money to his sister and let her take care of me?"
Nong Chun was sighing there. As a woman herself, she felt that her sister must have sinned in her previous life to have such a brother.
Gu Ruanci said, "If the person who stood up yesterday was Sister Wen, I'm afraid she would be in trouble."
How can you be reliable if you rely on men?
Let’s leave this topic here.
After entering the palace, there are still familiar roads and palace walls, and the deep courtyards have isolated so many people from wealth and glory.
In the Empress Dowager's bedroom, the Empress Dowager sat there waiting patiently.
Seeing Gu Ruanci come in, he stood up and watched her salute with a smile.
"Get up. I just saw you a few days ago, and I summoned you again today. I hope you don't have any worries in your heart?" The Empress Dowager's attitude was much brighter than before.
The nanny beside her looked at Gu Ruanci with respect.
"Probably for Prince Duan."
Gu Ruanci didn't beat around the bush. Lu Enyan had asked for her opinion before, asking whether she could tell the Queen Mother and Princess Duan about this matter. After all, they were both very worried about his health.
The Empress Dowager's smile was more sincere than last time. Before, she felt a little distressed after seeing the old friend, but now she was full of appreciation and gratitude.
"I never thought you were the Little Medical Immortal. When I heard Enyan tell me this in person, I couldn't believe it. But in the past ten years, you must have suffered a lot to achieve such success. I won't say any more nonsense. Enyan's health is related to his mother's life. If he really can't get better, I'm afraid his mother will not live long either."
She paused and continued, "When I was young, I made Prince Duan go through some dangerous things for the Emperor. Now, Prince Duan is so absurd, and neither I nor the Emperor can control him too harshly, so Enyan and Princess Duan have been wronged over the years."
"We originally thought Enyan had no hope. Imperial Physician Zang had mentioned before that his master was a skilled doctor, but had been missing for years. Later, we heard that he had an outstanding junior sister who had inherited his master's true teachings and had earned the nickname the Little Medical Fairy. When I learned that the Little Medical Fairy had entered Dizhou City, I talked to Enyan and offered to help him find her, but it seems he had other plans."
"When he told me that you had treated her, I finally understood that he had already met the Little Medical Fairy."
The Queen Mother became happier as she spoke, and she didn't mind Gu Ruanci's calm demeanor.
"From now on, Enyan's health will be entrusted to you. If you need anything, I can provide you with all the conveniences."
After Gu Ruanci politely thanked her, the Queen Mother asked, "I've heard about what happened between Concubine Ning and Enrui. I understand what they're planning to do. Now that you're a daughter of the Gu family, you have nothing to do with the Zhou family. If they dare to come up with such an idea again, they'll have to get past me first."
With the Empress Dowager around, at least it can be guaranteed that Concubine Ning and Lu Enrui will not be able to cause trouble in the short term.
After all, Lu Enrui was under house arrest...
"Princess Duan has prepared many thank-you gifts. You've never revealed your identity publicly, and I'm worried that making a big announcement might be inappropriate, so I took the initiative to change the title and give it to you. As for how you explain it to your father and mother after you return to the Gu family, that's your freedom."
"The Emperor and the Empress already know about this matter. You don't have to hide anything from them in the future."
The Queen Mother did not keep Gu Ruan Si for too long. She counted the things that Princess Duan had prepared, handed over the objects that she had rewarded her, and then had someone escort her out of the palace.
"Please forgive me for what happened last time, the Empress Dowager has already punished me..."
The one who sent them out this time was the same palace maid as last time.
Gu Ruanci said generously: "Of course, this is not your fault. The other party directly brought up the title of Concubine Ning, so you naturally can't give her any face at all."
"Thank you, Lord, for your understanding."
Not long after they walked out of the Queen Mother's bedroom, they heard a familiar voice.
"Second Princess, I can testify that what Wen Xue just said is true. After returning, Princess Chaoyang did not visit her father at the Zhou family, nor did she visit her grandfather at the Ye family. The Emperor governs the country with filial piety, so her actions are indeed inappropriate. Even if she is not included in the imperial jade book, she still has a title and represents the face of the royal family."
"That's right, Hanyue, you don't know how arrogant that Gu Ruanci is. Not only did she insult her grandfather and father in the street, she even cursed her grandmother to die quickly. It's incredible to think that such a person is a county lady like me. The key is that she really regards the Duke of Shou as her biological father. She got the position of county lady by relying on the military merits of the Duke's Mansion, and she doesn't even care about me. Last time in the Five Dragon Palace, she..."
The man didn't say the rest of the words.
Gu Ruanci stopped and asked, "Could these two voices be Zhou Qinzhu and County Master Mingyue?"
The palace maid who was seeing her off understood and immediately said, "To answer the County Lady, Miss Zhou came to the palace early this morning to ask for an audience with Concubine Ning. As for County Lady Mingyue, I don't know when she entered the palace."
"Who's there?"
Their voices eventually alarmed the person who was speaking over there.
The voice that just asked the question was clear, lively and full of energy.
The palace maid hurried over and said, "Greetings, Second Princess. I am a maid in the Empress Dowager's bedroom and am about to escort Princess Chaoyang out of the palace."
"So, the Princess Chaoyang is here too?" The owner of the voice seemed very interested.
Gu Ruanci did not hide and walked out openly.
The girl in front of me has a petite figure and a bright face, especially her eyes that are as clear as spring water.
"Your humble servant, Gu Ruanci, greets Her Royal Highness the Second Princess."
Zhou Qinzhu and Lu Wenxue, who were standing next to the second princess Lu Hanyue, were dumbfounded. They had just said something bad about someone and someone had heard it.
Lu Hanyue asked with great interest, "So you're the Chaoyang County Princess everyone in Dizhou City is talking about. You're indeed quite good-looking. Did you hear what they just said?"
Gu Ruanci raised her head and her eyes moved back and forth between Zhou Qinzhu and Lu Wenxue.
"Do you two hope that I heard it, or not?"
