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

Ning Ruyan stiffened her neck and said nothing. She didn't think she had done anything wrong.

"I am responsible for taking care of the inner courtyard. This is my duty. If you think I am doing something wrong, you can punish me."

"Are you threatening me that I won't do anything to you?"

Looking at Xiao Minshen's bloodshot eyes, Ning Ruyan began to feel like retreating.

But her pride since childhood prevented her from lowering her head.

Xiao Minshen looked at Ning Ruyan, who was holding her head high and unwilling to accept the result, and kicked the chair beside her feet away in anger.

He walked forward and picked up Shen Yunjin, Fulu hurriedly picked up Yuzhi, and the two of them left in a huff.

Everyone in the yard felt alive again.

"Princess, why don't you give in to the prince?"

Nanny Zhao crawled to Ning Ruyan's side on her knees and helped her up.

Ning Ruyan's eyes were full of stubbornness. She just didn't believe that she, a legitimate wife, could not compete with a concubine?

Xiao Minshen rushed into Mingyue Pavilion holding Shen Yunjin, "Where are the people? Where did they go?"

A strange maid ran over in a panic, "This servant greets the prince."

"Who are you? Where are the others in this room?"

Xiao Minshen asked angrily as he carefully placed Shen Yunjin on the couch.

"Your Highness, my name is Cui Liu, and I am the concubine's maid. Sister Jinzhi is injured and is being given medicine. Please let me come to the concubine."

Cuizhi saw Xiao Minshen trying to undress Shen Yunjin and hurried forward to help.

Fulu, who was standing by, also put down the jade branch and said, "Your Highness, I will go get the doctor."

"Master, how are you?" Jinzhi limped in from outside the door.

Linglong followed closely behind, "Don't you want this leg anymore?"

Xiao Minshen noticed that one of Jinzhi's legs could no longer walk normally.

"Your master has fainted. Fulu, hurry up and find a doctor!"

Jinzhi held Liuli's hand and said, "Quick, Linglong, show the master. As long as you save the master, Jinzhi's life will be given to you."

Xiao Minshen stretched out his hand to stop the two of them. Seeing that Linglong was just a little girl, he said, "She is not a doctor, why are you making trouble?"

"Her lower back is injured. You might as well let me take a look at her first instead of looking for a doctor."

Linglong stopped Fulu who was about to go out and told Xiao Minshen.

Jinzhi knelt down in front of Xiao Minshen with a plop.

"Your Highness, Linglong is the daughter of the Liu family. She knows medical skills. When the master's hand was burned before, it was Linglong who treated it. The master trusts her."

Xiao Minshen knew that Shen Yunjin valued Jinzhi very much, "You get up first and answer the question."

He moved aside and let Linglong go over to see Shen Yunjin's injury.

"Your Majesty, I need to apply medicine to the concubine. Would you mind leaving for a moment?"

"I will stay here, everyone else get out!"

Xiao Minshen really didn't believe that this girl, who was not even as tall as his shoulders, knew medical skills. He wanted to see it for himself before he could feel at ease.

Linglong was concentrating on cutting open the clothes on Shen Yunjin's back with a pair of scissors, and only a blurry area below the waist was visible.

She opened the medicine box in her hand and took out the low-quality white wine first, preparing to disinfect.

"What is this?" Xiao Minshen asked, pointing at the bottle.

Linglong rolled her eyes in an inelegant manner, "Your Highness, either you go out and wait, or you don't talk. This will easily interfere with my treatment of Concubine Shen. Do you want her to die from the pain?"

As she spoke, Linglong sprayed the white wine onto Shen Yunjin's wound.

The liquor immediately stimulated Shen Yunjin, and she couldn't help but groan in pain.

Xiao Minshen hurriedly went forward and hugged her, staring at Linglong gloomily, as if he wanted to kill her.

Without even lifting her eyelids, Linglong continued to clean the wound with sterilized cotton and then applied medicine.

She walked to the desk again and wrote down the prescription in a flamboyant manner.

"According to this prescription, first prepare three doses of medicine. Use three bowls of water to boil one dose of medicine into one bowl. Give it to her immediately."

She handed the prescription to Xiao Minshen, and then went to look at Yuzhi beside her.

Yuzhi's condition was more serious, so Linglong took a pill from the medicine box and gave it to her first.

Xiao Minshen took a look at the prescription. It contained some herbs for clearing away heat and detoxifying, and it looked promising.

He handed the prescription to Fulu who was outside the door and told him to get the medicine back quickly.

Xiao Minshen turned his head and saw Linglong feeding Yuzhi a pill.

"Do you have any more of this medicine? Give one to Concubine Shen and I will pay for it."

Linglong didn't raise her head to look at Xiao Minshen who had a gloomy face. "Your Highness, do you think this is candy? Why give one to each person?"

Xiao Minshen didn't feel embarrassed. Both of them were beaten and injured, so why should they only give food to the maid? Was the daughter of the Liu family being treated differently?

"Yuzhi's leg is broken. I gave her a drug with an anesthetic effect. I will be able to treat her leg later."

Linglong gave Xiao Minshen a rare explanation, considering that he was so worried about Shen Yunjin.

Xiao Minshen finally understood. He touched his nose with his hand and turned around to guard Shen Yunjin.

"Your Highness, please help me hold her down." Linglong called him.

"You want me to do something for you?!" Xiao Minshen laughed angrily.

Linglong shrugged indifferently. There was nothing she could do as there were only the two of them in the room.

"I will adjust her bones soon, which will irritate her. I am worried that she will move around and affect my bandaging, so I asked the prince to help. After all, you are a man, so you need more strength."

Xiao Minshen snorted, but still stepped forward and held Yuzhi's hand as Linglong said.

Just now in Qixia Garden, Xiao Minshen saw Shen Yunjin protecting this maid under him.

Although he didn't know what the relationship between this maid and Shen Yunjin was, he could see that Shen Yunjin valued her very much.

Otherwise, how could someone risk his own life to protect a maid?

"My Lord, you're done. I'm about to start."

As soon as Linglong finished speaking, there was a slight "click" sound. Yuzhi trembled all over and couldn't help but wave her hands.

Xiao Minshen was caught off guard and she almost broke free.

By the time Linglong finished bandaging the wound, her forehead was covered in sweat.

"Okay, now we just have to wait for the medicine."

Xiao Minshen immediately stood up and walked to the side to look at Shen Yunjin.

Because of the medicine, Shen Yunjin's complexion didn't look as bad as before.

"Why hasn't she woken up yet?" Xiao Minshen was a little worried.

"Not waking up is a good thing. At least I can't feel the pain."

Linglong put the used tools in a bag separately, preparing to boil them back home to disinfect them.

Xiao Minshen saw that she was very good at everything she did, and asked, "How old are you?"

"Why? Your Highness is questioning my medical skills? Or does Your Highness think that the level of medical skills is related to age?"

"That's not what the king meant!"

"Your Highness, the medicine is ready." Fulu said outside the door.

Linglong walked to the door and said, "Jinzhi, drink one bowl and give me the other two bowls."

"How is the master? I want to go in and take a look." Jinzhi limped in.

She felt relieved only when she saw Shen Yunjin lying on the couch with steady breathing.

"Tell me, what happened today?" Xiao Minshen looked at Jinzhi.
