My Lord, the princess doesn't want you anymore.

Although Mei Xueer did not go out much these days, she was not idle and continued to tinker with her various pills.

Some cure diseases and save lives, while others harm people.

Of course, the latter can only be used as a last resort for self-protection.

Who made me a weak woman who doesn't know martial arts?

She also kept up with the news outside the palace.

I heard that the Queen's illness has improved a lot and she is back to being active and energetic.

But she was under house arrest by the emperor, so she had nowhere to jump around even if she wanted to!

The Crown Princess has never left the house, so she must be having a hard time.

The prince also forbade her to go out and embarrass herself.

Also, if the Crown Princess was walking outside and someone asked her, "What does that garlic-flavored urine smell like?"

Or ask her, "Is that man better at kung fu than the prince?"

How could a princess like her answer this question?

That day, Mei Xueer got up early and prepared to go to the palace to check on the Queen Mother's condition.

After leaving Qingfeng Garden, the master and servant heard the servants in the mansion secretly discussing that an assassin had entered the mansion at dawn.

But this assassin didn't seem to be here to kill people, but more like he was looking for something.

This man was very good at light work. He avoided the heavy guards and passed through several courtyards in succession. When he was about to sneak into Jianxian Pavilion, he was stopped by the secret guards deployed by Zhuang Xiang.

Mei Xueer was puzzled, could it be that I ate too much pig intestines and became as sleepy as a pig, so I couldn't hear the assassin when he came?

Tsk, what does it have to do with me? If the assassin wants to kill someone, he will kill the Dog Prince.

Mei Xueer was thinking about it when she saw Cui Hongjing.

He was sitting in a wheelchair, staring at the unfortunate osmanthus tree in a daze.

After his fatal blow, only a stump of the osmanthus tree was left, and its roots were damaged and loosened.

The cold wave has arrived, and I don’t know if it can survive this winter.

She could only see his back, his hair was not tied up in a bun, and it was scattered behind him.

The cool breeze gently lifted his three thousand black hair, and then gently fell down, like the slowly flowing morning mist.

In the silence, there is a hint of inexplicable sadness.

In winter, the whole garden was withered and yellow, and Cui Hongjing, dressed in dark clothes, looked even more lonely and desolate.

His back was no longer as straight as usual, and his shoulders were even trembling slightly.

Is this dog prince crying?

Yes, that was the osmanthus tree planted for him by his royal grandfather, but he killed it with a single blow.

I'm afraid all his memories of family and love are left with is this osmanthus tree.

Mei Xueer felt as if she was infected by the lonely figure and should say something, so she walked over quietly as if possessed.

Cui Hongjing heard the noise, turned around suddenly, and looked at her calmly.

Looking at the scar that caught her eye and the slightly red eyes, Mei Xueer found herself again.

What the hell, we agreed not to interfere with each other, why am I here?

She turned back cruelly. Just as she stepped out of the door, she turned back again, "I heard that an assassin broke in last night?"

Cui Hongjing didn't say anything, just nodded.

"It seems that there are quite a lot of people who want to kill the prince!" Mei Xueer smiled awkwardly.

Cui Hongjing ignored her and stopped looking at her.

Mei Xue'er was about to leave the house when she saw Zhuang Xiang rushing over. She said a little embarrassedly, "Princess, an assassin broke into the house this morning and some of our brothers were injured. One of them was seriously injured and the doctor in the house said he couldn't be saved. Can you please take a look at him?"

Out of her instinct as a doctor, Mei Xueer's first reaction was to save people, but when she saw Cui Hongjing not far away, she became angry, "But, I still have to go to the palace..."

"Princess, please." Zhuang Xiang's face turned red with anxiety. "There's too much bleeding. There's a hole in my belly."

Mei Xueer bit her lower lip and said guiltily, "Unless..."

"If you want me to beg you, then I will ask you to save him, okay?" Cui Hongjing's cold voice came from the stump of the osmanthus tree.

He looked at Mei Xue'er, "No matter how much you hate me, the guards have never offended you. Please, save them."

Cui Hongjing actually came to her for help for a guard?

Mei Xueer felt a little ashamed, but she didn't show it.

She was a doctor and had no intention of just standing by and watching the dog die. She just wanted the Dog Prince to beg her.

She retracted her gaze and said decisively: "Nanxing, go get the big medicine box next to my cabinet!"

The guard was indeed seriously injured, and the doctor beside him was at a loss, shaking his head and sighing continuously.

"Get out of the way!" Mei Xueer stepped forward and saw a bloody hole on the man's upper left abdomen. He was in shock and his face was pale.

After examining it, she determined that it was a ruptured spleen.

"How long have you been injured?"

"About an hour ago." Zhuang Xiang replied.

"Prepare strong liquor, hot water and candles immediately! I want to perform surgery on him!" Mei Xueer ordered.

"Hand, surgery?" the doctor was puzzled.

"Just cut open his belly and see how serious the injury is. If the injury is serious, we have to remove the injured spleen! Doctor, I need your help. First, wash your hands and arms with alcohol to disinfect them..." Mei Xueer turned around and said to Zhuang Xiang, "The conditions are limited. I can't guarantee that I can save him, but I will try my best."

"Open the belly?!" The doctor was shocked, but when he remembered that the princess had done this before during autopsies, he stopped talking.

"The anesthetic I made myself may not be very effective. Just bear with it, it will be very painful." Mei Xueer comforted him while preparing for the operation.

She opened the large medicine box that Nanxing carried on her back. The box was full of surgical instruments.

It was very simple and incomplete, but it was the best she could find.

A few days ago, she happened to draw the blueprints and asked Nanxing to find someone to make a scalpel, scissors, tweezers, hemostatic forceps and so on, which came in handy.

Only Mei Xueer and the doctor were left in the room.

Zhuang Xiang was kicked out, and saw Cui Hongjing pushing a wheelchair over at some point.

"The princess said that we need an operation, which means cutting open the belly and removing the damaged area!" Zhuang Xiang explained in the simplest words.

"Oh!" Cui Hongjing didn't react, nor did he walk away. Through the gap in the window, he could just see the woman in the room with her head down and focused.

"The princess said that conditions are limited and she is not completely sure that she can save him, but she will try her best." Zhuang Xiang muttered, "But when I asked her if she needed anything else, she didn't tell me. So I was wondering, we don't have anything we need, so why are conditions limited? But the princess is really kind-hearted and willing to perform surgery on a guard."

"The princess's method of curing illnesses and saving lives is different from that of ordinary doctors, so the things she needs are also extraordinary. There's nothing strange about that." Cui Hongjing said calmly. His eyes stayed on the face of the woman in the room.

Zhuang Xiang: Lord, didn't you say you don't want to call me princess? But you call me princess yourself.

Cui Hongjing didn't notice this, he just murmured: "The prince has improved this time, he sent someone with some ability. Humph, it is possible that he was sent by my father."

"There were five people in total. Following the prince's instructions, we didn't alarm them at first. Later we found that they seemed to be looking for something, and finally approached Jianxian Pavilion, so we took action. Unexpectedly, two of them were quite skilled. However, they were all assassins, and we couldn't get anything out of them. They all died."

Cui Hongjing looked into the room, nodded absentmindedly, and said nothing.

More than an hour later, the door opened and Mei Xueer walked out, wiping her hands.

There was a hint of fatigue between her brows and bloodshot in her eyes.

"The operation was very successful. The biggest problem now is to prevent postoperative infection. It depends on his luck. If there is nothing serious within two days, he can live." Mei Xueer turned to the doctor and said, "Postoperative care must be done according to my instructions. Don't be careless when using or changing the medicine."

The doctor kept nodding his head. Today he had finally seen something new: the belly was cut open and yet it could be sewn up again. The internal organs were taken out and yet the person was still alive.

If he had not seen it with his own eyes, he would never have dared to imagine that he could save people in this way.
