Marrying a wife and a concubine together? Wouldn't it be better to divorce and become the queen

Since he had seen through her, Feng Qingluan confessed:

"You're right. I've injected Miss Liao with medication. She'll be fine for now. Once her condition stabilizes, she can support surgery."

After hearing her words, Xie Jin felt relieved for some reason.

He stood up straight and regained his cold and contemptuous look.

"You are the only one in the room. With me here, no one will disturb you. Go ahead."

After Xie Jin spoke, Feng Qingluan turned around and went back to her room without any further obstruction.

Then...

Doctor Meng, who was guarding the room, was driven out, and the door closed in front of him with a bang.

Meng Hanlin: “….”

He stood in front of the door, looking at the tightly closed door, and looked in the direction of Xie Jin in confusion.

Did Princess Chu convince His Royal Highness Prince Rong to treat Miss Liao alone?

He smacked his lips and stepped aside helplessly.

At this point, he became somewhat curious as to whether the Princess of Chu could cut open Miss Liao's heart and save her, and how she would prevent the life-threatening situation brought on by the infection. He felt a small sense of anticipation in his heart.

Xie Jin ordered Jiang Qu to stay here and not let anyone approach the room.

In the next room, after Ping Sujun was asked to leave, Feng Shuyao still took the last opportunity to fan the flames:

"Madam, His Royal Highness Prince Rong asked the Imperial Physician Meng from the Imperial Hospital to assist him. This shows how much he trusts the Princess Cousin. The Princess Cousin doesn't have any medical skills, but His Royal Highness favors her so much. It's really unbelievable."

Bai Huazang on the side also said:

"This matter is very strange. I heard Doctor Meng say that he wanted the Princess of Chu to perform surgery on Miss Liao. Doesn't that mean they have to cut open Miss Liao's heart? I have been practicing medicine for many years, but I have never heard of such a method to treat heart disease. This is not curing the disease, it is clearly harming people. I should say something that I shouldn't say, Madam Duke, please be mentally prepared. I'm afraid that Miss Liao will..."

He shook his head and sighed, without uttering the last four words: "most likely a bad outcome".

After hearing what both of them said, Ping Sujun felt panicked and angry. She was about to go find Xie Jin to ask for clarification when she ran into him at the door.

Seeing him and Doctor Meng behind him, but without the Princess of Chu, Ping Sujun was surprised:

"Prince Rong, did you leave Princess Chu alone to treat Luo Ling?"

Xie Jin's eyes were deep: "Feng Qingluan knows medical skills, she might be worth trusting."

Yesterday, Feng Qingluan accompanied the King of Chu into the palace to serve tea, and suddenly the Queen was poisoned. She saw that there was something wrong with the furnishings in the room, and took out medicine to help the Queen survive.

His original intention was to have Meng Hanlin stay in the room to witness Feng Qingluan's medical skills with his own eyes, but the woman's reaction was so strong that what happened just now happened.

In fact, he inexplicably believed in Feng Qingluan's medical skills.

Ping Sujun still didn't believe it: "Why do you say she is trustworthy?"

Xie Jin said: "In the chaos just now, she secretly gave Luo Ling medicine."

His cold eyes fell on Feng Shuyao who was standing behind Ping Sujun, "Otherwise, Luo Ling would have been gone after that obstruction. Concubine, the warning I gave you at Yuelai Inn yesterday was not enough. You came to the Duke's Mansion to instigate me again today. Do you think I am easy to fool and I will be instigated by you with just a few words?"

He waved his sleeves and a hidden weapon flew out from the cuff, brushing past Feng Shuyao's neck, leaving a bloody mark on her fair skin.

"I'm warning you for the last time. Don't even think about using your shabby tricks to appear before me again. Otherwise, the arrows will do more than just scratch your skin. Disappear now before I have the patience!"

Xie Jin's voice was as cold as ice. Feng Shuyao was so frightened that she couldn't speak. She felt a warm liquid flowing down her neck. She raised her hand to touch it and saw it was blood. Feng Shuyao's legs went limp and she sat down on the ground.

"Concubine..." Bai Huazang was also startled and hurried to help her.

"Your Highness Prince Rong, did you misunderstand something? Concubine Shu is too worried about Miss Liao's safety. You..."

He was about to continue talking nonsense when Xie Jin shot him a sharp look and Bai Huazang immediately fell silent.

Ping Sujun realized what Xie Jin said and was shocked and incredulous. Was Feng Shuyao trying to provoke her just now?

She thought Feng Shuyao denied the Princess of Chu with certainty because she was really worried about her daughter, but it turned out that she had ulterior motives.

Just as she was feeling regretful, Feng Shuyao stood up tremblingly with the help of her maid.

"Your Highness Prince Rong, I feel a little unwell, so I will withdraw first."

As she spoke, she didn't dare to look up at Xie Jin, nor did she dare to look at Ping Sujun again. She swallowed nervously and was supported by Zhinan and walked away.

Bai Huazang was still in a daze. Seeing that Feng Shuyao, who brought him here, had left, he gritted his teeth and followed her out.

Feng Shuyao left the Duke's Mansion trembling with fear and sat in the carriage. She suddenly felt as if she had escaped death and she was so scared that tears came out of her eyes.

It was so thrilling just now. If the hidden weapon was one or two centimeters deeper, she would have been killed on the spot.

Bai Huazang also got on the carriage. Seeing that her face was pale, he took out external injury medicine and gauze from the medicine box to stop the bleeding and bandage her.

"Shuyao, don't cry. We are out. It's just a minor injury. Don't worry too much."

Feng Shuyao couldn't stop crying out of fear. Recalling the humiliating scene just now, she said angrily:

"What did that bitch Feng Qingluan say in front of His Royal Highness Prince Rong to make him trust and protect her so much? This is the second time Prince Rong has told me to get out. I am the concubine of Prince Chu after all, but Prince Rong showed me no mercy in front of so many people. I am so angry."

Not only did she fail to sow discord today, she also made Prince Rong completely lose his good impression of her, which was a great insult to her.

Bai Huazang comforted her, "Shu Yao, there is still a long way to go. It is impossible for a person who has no medical skills to be resurrected. It is still unclear whether Feng Qingluan can save Miss Liao. If she cannot save her and Miss Liao dies in her hands, Prince Rong will definitely not let her off easily."

After he said that, Feng Shuyao felt that this was the truth. She let out a breath of anger and finally felt a little better. Seeing Bai Huazang sitting on the cushion she had carefully selected, her tone was full of undisguised disdain:

"Cousin, this is the carriage of the Prince of Chu's palace. How can you ride with me? Won't it cause gossip? My injury is fine, you can get off now."

Bai Huazang looked embarrassed, "Okay, I understand. Shu Yao, you have to pay attention to your diet these days due to your wound. Don't get angry anymore and get more rest. I'm going downstairs. Come to me if you need anything."

Bai Huazang picked up the medicine box, looked at Feng Shuyao reluctantly, and got off the carriage.

After he went down, Feng Shuyao scratched his ears and said unhappily:

"Zhi Nan, wipe the place where he sat, and then spray some rose water."

No matter how well-dressed a man who dealt with livestock all year round was, she always felt that he exuded a faint smell of animals.

Zhinan did as Feng Shuyao asked. When he sat next to Feng Shuyao, he saw a small black spot behind her ear where she had been scratched. He didn't pay much attention to it. "Miss, stop scratching. The area behind your ear has turned red."

Feng Shuyao angrily lifted up her left sleeve and scratched her arm.

"It's all because Bai Huazang got into the carriage and sat there. His smell made the carriage unclean and made me feel uncomfortable. Let's go back home and take a bath."

She scratched her arm and put down her sleeve, not noticing that the area of ​​skin she had scratched was red with faint black spots appearing. She returned to the Prince of Chu's Palace in the carriage with a depressed look on her face.
