After Yu Shaoqing left —
Ji Yunshu said worriedly, "Right now, Prince Yi is trying to win over people's hearts everywhere. If you want to turn the tables, it won't be an easy task."
"Don't worry, this king knows what to do. You've been traveling for a long time, you should hurry up and take a rest. Leave the rest to this king."
She was indeed tired!
Nodding his head, he said, "That's fine too. Tomorrow, when you enter the palace, I will make a trip to Bamboo Creek Garden. There are still 11 skeletons that haven't been found yet. I thought that I would be able to return within a month, but I didn't expect that it would take several months."
"Although the case is urgent, we can't rush it. Let's rest well before we go."
"I understand."
Ji Yunshu nodded and was about to leave the hall when suddenly —
His footsteps came to a halt.
He wrinkled his nose slightly.
The smell of blood?
She turned to look at Jing Rong and asked worriedly, "Are you hurt?"
Jing Rong denied, "No."
I don't believe it!
"Let me see." Ji Yunshu stepped forward to check if there were any injuries on his body. The moment she touched his arm, her fingertips became wet. She looked down and saw fresh blood dripping from her fingertips. She was shocked and quickly said, "It's so serious. Why didn't you tell us?"
Jing Rong's strength wasn't something that had happened in just a day or two.
He retracted his arm. "It's just a small injury. There's no need to make a fuss about it. I'll just apply some medicine later."
"You are always like this."
"I'm really fine."
Ji Yunshu glared at him angrily. She was about to ask Lang Po, who was standing outside, to call for a doctor, but he stopped her.
He shook his head lightly. "Don't let them know."
Ji Yunshu sighed softly. She understood his meaning.
Hence —
She dragged him to the backyard and brought out the medicine box, intending to bandage his wound herself.
Jing Rong wanted to put up a brave front again, but Ji Yunshu had already pulled up his sleeves. His white undershirt was already stained red, and there was a gash on his clothes from the sword. He could vaguely see the wound underneath, but it was covered in blood.
"Don't move!" Ji Yunshu said.
As expected, he obediently stopped moving and allowed her to do whatever she wanted.
Ji Yunshu took a pair of scissors and cut off the clothes around the wound. Then, she dipped a handkerchief in water and cleaned the wound bit by bit. The wound wasn't deep. Presumably, when he was fighting with Ji Li, he had only suffered a light injury. However, because he didn't have time to deal with it, and because he was in and out of the palace, the wound opened up.
"You're already injured to this extent, yet you don't even know how to talk."
"I didn't want you to worry."
"All the more reason to say it."
What kind of godly logic was that?
"Wounds made by swords are the most susceptible to infection. If they are not treated for a long time, the wound will be infected with bacteria, which will then fester. Once the fester festers, the blood vessels will not be able to flow, and the entire arm will have to be amputated. Otherwise, the infection will spread to the rest of the body. If it gets serious, it might even take your life."
"Bacteria?" Jing Rong was puzzled. "What are bacteria?"
"That's not the point. The point is that you shouldn't leave the wound like this. If it's light, it will get infected. If it's serious, it will be amputated."
"It's not as serious as you make it out to be. This king doesn't believe it."
You don't believe me, right?
Ji Yunshu stopped what she was doing and raised her head to look at him. Then …
She exerted some force with her fingers and pressed on his wound.
"Ah!"
'You don't believe me!'
Jing Rong gritted his teeth in pain.
"Ji Yunshu, it hurts."
"Don't move."
"It hurts!"
"You're not allowed to move even if it hurts."
"You're plotting against this Prince, plotting against your own husband."
She glared at him. After a while, her hands became gentler as she carefully bandaged his wound. Her eyes gradually narrowed as she looked at the wound. Her eyes reddened. She softly said, "In the future, no matter what happens, you're not allowed to hide it from me. Whether it's a minor injury or a major one, you can't hide it from me."
Jing Rong felt the pain in his hand disappear. He looked at the woman who was dressing his wound. Seeing her anxious expression, his stubbornness disappeared.
He replied with a single word, "Okay."
It was better than a thousand words.
… …
On the other side.
Yuhua Pavillion.
Mo Ruo returned to the capital. As soon as he arrived at Yuhua Pavillion, he was surrounded by patients.
"Divine Doctor Mo, can you take a look at me? I've been feeling unwell recently."
"Divine Doctor Mo, you're finally back. I've been waiting for you to treat my son."
"I came first. Let me take a look first."
"I came first."
… …
They surrounded him in the center!
Mo Ruo had four conditions.
Don't treat those who harbor evil intentions.
Don't treat those who suffer from minor illnesses.
Don't treat those who dabble in family.
Don't treat those who are in a bad mood.
Don't treat those who are in a bad mood.
These people all fulfilled one of his four conditions. So, he didn't treat any of them.
But they didn't let him go and continued to pester him endlessly.
He couldn't get away.
Tang Si watched them for a long time as if she was watching a play. Then, she pulled a child over and asked, "Where are you resting?"
The child looked her up and down. "Miss, you're … here to see a doctor?"
"Are you blind? I got off the carriage with Mo Ruo."
"Oh, I'm sorry, Miss, I didn't see you. Are you … Master's?"
"I'm his fiancée."
Pfft!
The child was so shocked that he almost vomited blood. He pressed his hand to his chest, his face blank.
"You … You're Master's wife? Why haven't I heard of it? "
Tang Si smiled smugly. "I haven't had the chance to tell you yet. When your Master is done, he will naturally tell you. Oh yes, hurry up and tell me, where's the place to rest? Where's your Master's room? "
Xiao Tong stretched out his finger and pointed at the top of his head. He stammered out two words, "Ge … Lou."
"Thanks."
Tang Si immediately rushed up.
She didn't treat herself as an outsider at all.
The child was stunned for a few seconds. He looked at Mo Ruo, who was surrounded, and then at his future Master's wife, who had already gone upstairs. He quickly exclaimed, "Master said that we can't go up to the loft casually."
He hurriedly chased after her.
As soon as he went up, he saw Tang Si happily tossing and turning things around, touching this and that in one moment.
"What's this?" She picked up a medicinal herb and asked.
The child hurriedly said, "You can't touch this. This is a good medicine that Master got two years ago. If you spoil it, we won't be able to bear the consequences."
"Then what about this?" She picked up another herb.
"You can't touch this either. This is a good herb that's been in the sun for a year. It's specially used to treat headaches."
"What about this?"
"You can't either. What Master is most anxious about is this herb."
Tang Si was bouncing about happily. This was the first time she had seen so many medicinal herbs placed in such an elegant loft. She couldn't help but be a little excited.
The child really couldn't stand it anymore. He stood in front of her and revealed a bitter expression. "Master's wife, I beg you, please stop for a while. If you continue like this and spoil any medicinal herbs, Master will definitely kill me."
She was elated to hear him call her Master's wife.
She immediately took out an ingot of silver and stuffed it into the child's hands. "Just because you called me Master's wife, this is your reward."
The child was dumbfounded as he held the ingot of silver. This was three months' worth of his salary!
"Thank you Master's wife. Master's wife, you're so generous."
His face changed so quickly!
Tang Si patted his shoulder. "From now on, follow Master's wife. Master's wife will not treat you badly."
"Yes, yes, yes. Master's wife is the best."
Mo Ruo, who was below, didn't know that his own child had sold him out just like that.
