After giving up being the wife of a powerful official, Ling Yunlu became a concubine

"You women are trouble. This is just a disguise."

As if she understood everyone's doubts, Linglong said impatiently.

Shen Yunjin burst out laughing, this Linglong is so interesting.

Have you ever seen a child pretending to be an adult with a stern face?

He uses a childish voice but speaks in an old-fashioned way.

She couldn't help but stretch out her hand to pinch Linglong's face, and saw that she was suddenly stunned, and then a blush quickly covered her entire face.

Linglong had not expected that the other party, a concubine, would actually have a hobby of taking advantage of others.

She pretended not to care and said, "Put your hand out."

Then, she applied the contents of the bottles and jars she had brought on Shen Yunjin's injured hand one by one, and finally bandaged it with white gauze.

Shen Yunjin looked at his right hand which was bandaged like a pig's trotter, and three black lines slid down his head.

Is this medical skill? The maids around her are probably better at bandaging than her.

Linglong coughed and said, "I am good at medical skills, not bandaging. I learned it last night."

Now, everyone in the room couldn't help laughing.

When Ning Ruyan saw Shen Yunjin's hands bandaged like a pig's trotter, she couldn't help but look at them a few more times.

"How is Concubine Shen's hand? It just so happens that today the imperial physician is here to check my pulse. You stay for a while and let the imperial physician take a look at you."

"Thank you for your kindness, Princess. I have already asked someone to see her and prescribed medicine. The imperial physician is here to see Princess, and I dare not cause trouble for her."

Ning Ruyan looked at Shen Yunjin deeply. Could it be that, as Nanny Zhao said, there was something fishy going on here?

"I told you to let the imperial physician take a look at you, to prevent the prince from finding out and blaming me for my poor management."

Seeing that he couldn't refuse, Shen Yunjin lowered his head and agreed.

Seeing this, Ning Ruyan became even more suspicious.

"Princess, Doctor Rong is here." Nanny Li brought in an old man with gray beard.

"Your humble servant greets the princess." Imperial Doctor Rong bowed to Ning Ruyan without looking away.

"Doctor Rong, please take a look at Concubine Shen first. She accidentally burned her hand yesterday."

Shen Yunjin stretched out his right hand, and Doctor Rong's eyebrows jumped when he saw the "pig's trotter" in front of him.

"I didn't call a doctor yesterday, so someone in my room bandaged it."

Shen Yunjin lowered his eyes to hide the smile in his eyes.

"Nonsense! If it's a burn, why bandage it like this!" Doctor Rong was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.

He deftly removed the bandage, revealing Shen Yunjin's injured hand.

Everyone couldn't help but cover their mouths, and Ning Ruyan turned her head away.

Shen Yunjin's entire right hand was covered with red, green and yellow plasters, and there were dried marks of yellow-brown water on it.

It looked like a blister caused by a scald that had burst and then had ointment applied to it carelessly, and yellow water had already come out.

Doctor Rong was also stunned; he didn't expect it to be so serious.

He glanced at Shen Yunjin's hands, "Concubine Shen, avoid spicy food and water for at least a month. You need to take good care of your hands, otherwise, they will be useless."

There was a flash of fear in Shen Yunjin's eyes, and then tears flowed silently.

There are many secrets in the backyards of wealthy families, and Doctor Rong didn't want to ask too much. He just fulfilled his duties as a doctor.

"I'll prescribe two sets of medicine for you, one for washing and one for applying. Don't bandage it, as the hot weather is not conducive to wound healing."

After saying this, Doctor Rong wrote down the prescription with a flourish of his pen.

"Concubine Shen, I will ask Aunt Zhao to get some medicine from my private storehouse and send it to you. You should take good care of yourself for the time being. You don't need to come and pay your respects."

Ning Ruyan pretended to be magnanimous and said that she couldn't eat after seeing Shen Yunjin's hand.

"Thank you, Princess." Shen Yunjin raised her hand to wipe away her tears.

As soon as Shen Yunjin arrived at Mingyuexuan, Nanny Zhao arrived.

Madam Zhao looked at Shen Yunjin with a haughty attitude: "Concubine Shen should be grateful for the princess's kindness. This is a good medicine given by the palace."

Shen Yunjin replied readily, "Yes, I thank you, Princess."

"Although the princess has allowed the concubine not to go over to pay respects, the concubine must abide by her duties and be careful in what she says and does."

"Yes, I understand." Shen Yunjin still lowered her head with a respectful look on her face.

Zhao Ma felt that what she said was like being thrown into the water without making a splash, and she also felt that it was meaningless.

She turned and left, "I'm here to see you off, Madam." Shen Yunjin bowed.

This Nanny Zhao is Ning Ruyan's clairvoyant. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that she is here to cause trouble. Shen Yunjin is willing to endure it rather than start a dispute.

If she can't afford to offend him, why can't she hide from him?

In the evening, Linglong came. She first looked at the prescription, then picked up the medicine sent by Nanny Zhao and checked it again.

"There's nothing wrong with the prescription, but there's something wrong with the smell of the medicine. If you use it, not only will it not get better, but it will cause more ulceration. In the end, you'll have to cut off your entire right hand."

Jinzhi covered her mouth with fright, and Shen Yunjin turned pale with fright.

She guessed that Ning Ruyan would not be so kind as to send her medicine, but she did not expect that she had such vicious intentions!

"Then what should I do?" Shen Yunjin looked at Linglong. Now, she had no choice but to trust Linglong.

"That depends on what you want to do. If you just want to keep your hands healthy, you don't need to do any of this. Just apply my ointment."

"If you have other plans, I can help you."

Having said that, a gleam of eagerness to try flashed in Linglong's eyes.

Shen Yunjin said nothing, she just looked at her injured hand.

The messy ointment on my hands has been washed off, leaving only red marks from yesterday's burns.

It looks like everything will be back to normal in two days.

She chose to endure and avoid Ning Ruyan's provocations in the past few days.

She was just a concubine, helpless.

That is to say, relying on the favor of King Qi in recent days, she has an easier time in the palace.

However, the royal family has always been the most ruthless. Who knows how long such favor can last?

Now she doesn't have enough bargaining chips to compete with Ning Ruyan.

If she acted rashly, just to vent her anger, she might end up falling into an abyss.

She couldn't afford to risk such an outcome.

Her previous life was so difficult, but she managed to get through it. So what’s the big deal if Ning Ruyan is just making things a little difficult for her in this life?

She has more important things to do and can't waste her time with irrelevant people!

"No need, I'll just use the ointment you brought." Shen Yunjin thought it through and made a decision immediately.

The gossip in Linglong's eyes disappeared. "Can you give me this herb? I'm just researching a prescription and it might be useful to me."

"Take whatever you want." Shen Yunjin waved his hand indifferently.

She didn't dare to use the herbs Ning Ruyan sent her lightly. Who knew if there was anything added to them?

Linglong happily took all of them away. The medicinal herbs produced in the palace were all top quality and could not be purchased even with money outside.

"Concubine, the prince is here."
