"Princess, this servant doesn't know how to treat Mother's leg wound, so..." Shuanghua said with some panic as she looked at Ji Jiuying's expression.
Ji Jiuying didn't answer, but walked closer to the bed and glanced at the woman on it.
The woman on the bed was very thin, with her tendons in her hands and feet severed, a long wound on her neck, and her throat poisoned. Clearly, this was to silence her. What could have caused Shuanghua's mother to suffer like this?
Upon seeing Ji Jiuying's arrival, the woman became emotional and tried to rise to greet her, making muffled noises.
"Sister, don't get agitated, let me take your pulse!"
The woman shook her head at Ji Jiuying, then looked at Shuanghua as if she wanted to express something.
“Princess, my mother said that it is already a great trouble for you to be here, how could we dare to trouble you to come and help her with treatment?”
As Shuanghua spoke, the woman nodded hurriedly.
"Sister, doctors are not divided into high and low social classes."
After Ji Jiuying finished speaking, she sat down and took her hand, regardless of whether she wanted to or not.
The woman quieted down upon seeing this. After a moment, Ji Jiuying released her hand, and Shuanghua looked at Ji Jiuying with some nervousness.
"Sister, your tendons in your hands and feet have been severed for quite some time, and the poison in your throat has already penetrated deep into your bone marrow. It will probably take half a year to fully recover."
Upon hearing Ji Jiuying's words, the woman, who had calmed down, became agitated again, letting out muffled sobs and tears streaming uncontrollably from her eyes.
Over the years, she has narrowly escaped death and dared not go out to seek medical treatment. The old pharmacist who saved her by chance shook his head when he saw the injuries on her body.
Later, she came to terms with it. Her daughter was very sensible and her husband was very responsible. It was just that she had to take medicine and her family was poor, so her daughter came to the princess's mansion without telling her. But what she didn't expect was that when her daughter received her first sum of money, her honest husband changed!
With that woman's encouragement, the two men tormented her even more severely, and even committed their lewd acts in front of her on several occasions.
She attempted suicide, but her husband found out and used Shuanghua to threaten her, preventing her from dying.
Just when she was feeling utterly disheartened, Shuanghua returned, bringing with her the guards from the princess's residence, and led her away from that place.
She was already content just to be by Shuanghua's side, and never thought that she could be cured. Now that Princess Anping said she could help her be cured, how could she not be excited!
"Princess, are you telling the truth? My mother can really cure him?" Shuanghua asked excitedly.
"Yes, that's right. But tomorrow, the princess will be leaving for Star Academy. I'll first help your mother get rid of the poison in her throat, then prescribe some medicine to regulate her body. I'll treat your mother when I get back."
After Ji Jiuying finished speaking, she wrote a prescription and gave it to Yingyue to prepare six months' worth of medicine.
Upon hearing this, Shuanghua knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly to express her gratitude. The woman looked at Shuanghua with satisfaction.
Ji Jiuying was speechless. These ancient people were really troublesome. They would kneel down and kowtow at the drop of a hat. Seeing that she couldn't be taught in a short time, Ji Jiuying just let her be.
At the street corner, a chill ran through him, and Ji Rufeng was startled awake. He saw four or five beggars with lewd smiles on their faces and exuding ugliness around him.
The clothes on my body were nowhere to be found.
While he was in a daze, someone grabbed him from behind, and a sharp pain shot through his back. Ji Rufeng instantly flew into a rage, but unfortunately, he had no spiritual power and was then held down hard by several beggars.
How could Ji Rufeng not know what had happened? He was instantly enraged, overwhelmed with shame, and his eyes seemed to spit fire.
"You bastard, get out of here!"
"I am the eldest son of the General's Mansion. How dare you lowly people like you!"
"Get out of here, do you hear me!"
"You're the eldest son of a general's mansion, but I'm the emperor's son!"
Hahahaha!
The beggars burst into laughter.
Their hands continued to roam over Ji Rufeng's body! It must be said, Ji Rufeng's physique was truly remarkable! The beggars' eyes were practically glued to him!
Ji Rufeng instantly flew into a rage. A disgrace! Absolutely a disgrace!
This is the first time in my life I've ever suffered such humiliation!
"Bastards! I'm going to kill you all!"
"Oh dear~ We're so scared! Hahahahahahaha."
suddenly.
"Ahhh!" A scream rang out! The alleyway instantly exploded like a black hole, engulfing everything in its path, unleashing a raging storm.
"·····"
That night, a fierce battle broke out, and blood flowed everywhere in the alley. Corpses were torn to pieces, and what was even more shocking was that the beggars' genitals had been cut off and chopped up, their deaths were gruesome.
No one knew who did it. Although the city's patrol office was alerted, the dead were all beggars, so the case was closed hastily.
One night, Ji Jiuying put away the silver needles and fed the refined pills to Shuanghua's mother.
"Take the pill, but don't make a sound yet."
After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Ji Jiuying had Qingling and Shuanghua help the woman up. She then stood behind her and quickly tapped the woman a few times. The woman coughed up a mouthful of black blood.
"Mother, how are you?" Shuanghua asked worriedly upon seeing this.
"Don't worry, your mother just vomited out some toxins!" Ji Jiuying said to the woman again. "Although she vomited out all the toxins, you have been poisoned for too long, and your vocal cords have already been damaged. So you need some time to recover. Tomorrow morning, you can try to speak slowly."
Ji Jiuying gave instructions.
The woman looked at Ji Jiuying gratefully and nodded.
The next morning, Ji Jiuying woke up naturally.
Upon seeing Ji Jiuying's door open, "Princess, you're awake!"
Qiuyue brought over the water for washing her face, and Yaya stepped forward to quickly help Ji Jiuying with her hair and makeup. It has to be said that Yaya is very skillful and quick to learn. Knowing that Ji Jiuying doesn't like complicated hairstyles, she always styles her hair simply and elegantly, which perfectly suits Ji Jiuying's taste.
As soon as Qiuyue and Yaya left, Shuanghua brought in breakfast. "Princess, breakfast is ready. Eat it while it's hot."
Ji Jiuying picked up her spoon and started eating.
"Shuanghua, you're smiling so happily, it seems your mother can speak now!" Ji Jiuying said with a smile.
"Yes, Princess, Mother also said that you are truly beautiful inside and out," Shuanghua said excitedly. She felt that the best thing she had ever done was to choose the Princess's residence! Otherwise, she would never have met such a wonderful mistress.
Ji Jiuying was stunned for a moment. Kind?
Upon seeing Ji Jiuying's arrival, the woman's eyes were red, clearly from crying, and she spoke in a somewhat hoarse voice, "This humble woman greets the Princess!"
Because of her paralysis, she was unable to perform the proper etiquette, so the woman felt somewhat uncomfortable upon seeing Ji Jiuying's arrival.
However, Ji Jiuying, being a modern person, didn't care about these things.
"Hmm! You're recovering well; your speech is fairly clear!"
"I will never forget the great kindness and virtue of the princess."
