I'm in trouble again! My best friend, the princess in the group, please save me!
Chapter 90: Doctor Ji Shows Off His Skills
"It's over! What time is it!"
Jiang Xingkuo hurriedly got up when he saw the sunlight slanting in through the window.
"Miss, it's just past the Si hour." Xiao'e brought a basin of water and helped her wash.
The palace maids next to her were all unfamiliar faces. She saw it but didn't say a word.
He just buried his face in the basin of water, bubbling away, and did not get up for a long time.
Xiao'e was not surprised and just stood aside waiting for her with a towel.
Jiang Xingkuo thought for a while before pulling his head out, grabbing the towel from Xiao'e's hand, wiping it roughly as he walked, and then throwing it back without looking back.
Xiao'e quickly picked up the towel in the wind, handed it to the palace maid beside her, and then quickly followed her.
"She has good martial arts skills. I really underestimated her." She complained in her heart.
The back of her neck was still aching slightly, and she twisted her body uncomfortably, glancing at Xiao'e intentionally or unintentionally.
Xiao'e met her gaze, and without blushing or beating her heart, she asked, "Miss, your neck is uncomfortable. Do you have a stiff neck?"
Damn it. You still have the nerve to ask! She gritted her teeth and walked out.
When passing by the imperial study, Xiao'e suddenly said, "Miss, you should have breakfast before leaving the palace."
"What time is it! It's time for breakfast! What are you going to eat? You only know how to eat!" As soon as she finished her dissatisfied retort, her stomach started to growl.
“…Forget it, we’re already here. Let’s go!”
Xiao'e lowered her head and tried hard to hold it back.
We killers are not allowed to laugh.
Eunuch Li led them into the imperial study.
"You came."
Emperor An Zhaoyan was sipping tea, and there were several sweet but not greasy pastries on the table.
She walked over to him and held out her hand.
He picked up the whole plate.
An Zhaoyan was stunned, watching her put the food piece by piece into her mouth.
"What's wrong? Wasn't it left for me?"
There was white powdered sugar floating at the corners of her mouth, and she licked it with her tongue, which was charming and seductive.
"…Nothing. Eat whatever you like." He lowered his head in panic.
"Oh, you're practicing calligraphy." She pulled over the copybook under the pile of books.
"Your handwriting is quite delicate, how come it looks like a girl's handwriting!"
An Zhaoyan took a closer look and found that it was the calligraphy that the queen had written before.
“Why don’t you write one too?”
He personally spread out a piece of rice paper and handed her the pen.
"I?"
Jiang Xingkuo put down the empty plate, hesitated for a moment, and took it.
With a stroke of her brush, four large abstract characters "Peace and Prosperity" appeared on the paper.
"Your handwriting..." He hesitated.
"What's wrong! My family is poor! I haven't been to school!" She put down her pen, clapped her hands and was about to leave.
"I'm full! See you later!"
Xiao'e followed closely behind.
Eunuch Li was about to stop her, but was stopped by a look.
"Let her be."
As he spoke, he held up the crooked words and smiled knowingly.
"Frame this. Hang it here."
Eunuch Li was stunned for a moment, then he started laughing too. "Yes."
Seeing the emperor's frown relax, Eunuch Li couldn't help but joked, "This Miss Jiang is really interesting. She is obviously well-read, but she still says that she has never been to school... Hehe..."
"Yes. Ever since Huanyan started hanging out with her, her calligraphy, which used to be quite decent, has become even more outrageous..."
He seemed to find it a little strange, and crossed his knuckles, lost in thought.
After leaving the palace, Jiang Xingkuo went straight to the princess's mansion.
As soon as I got off the carriage, an ox cart slowly approached from the opposite direction.
Jiang Xingkuo looked at the white-bearded old man sitting on the ox cart and walking slowly towards him, and his face was filled with dismay.
"Didn't I just give you a fast horse yesterday?"
"You're running too fast! My old bones can't take it!"
Doctor Ji staggered down from the ox cart, and Jiang Xingkuo hurried over to help him.
At this time, the gate of the princess's mansion slowly opened, and An Huanyan welcomed them in.
At a corner of the street, there was a passerby in humble clothes. After witnessing all this, he lowered the brim of his hat and blended into the crowd.
In a remote corner of the backyard of the princess's mansion, Doctor Ji was slowly putting on a pair of silicone gloves and began to examine the corpse.
All the servants around had been cleared out, leaving only a few personal assistants.
The corpses gave off a foul stench in the hot summer day.
He then flipped the corpse's eyelids, took off the corpse's clothes, and pried open its mouth for a closer look.
"Doctor Ji, do we need an autopsy?" An Huanyan asked anxiously while covering her nose.
"No. It's too obvious."
Doctor Ji worked for a while before he breathed a sigh of relief and took off his gloves.
Songyan quickly brought the basin of water.
Doctor Ji washed his hands, shook his head and sighed:
"Is there some deep hatred? The dose of arsenic is so large. It can kill a cow."
"Arsenic?"
"Yes. Huge amounts of arsenic. I can tell without doing an autopsy. You guys should go to the pharmacy and ask."
Doctor Ji wiped his hands and went into the house, where a table full of various delicacies made by Yutai himself was already set.
Jiang Xingkuo and Huanyan looked at each other, and Huanyan looked at Songyan again. Songyan immediately understood and left alone.
"What are you doing!" Huanyan was surprised.
"Shh..."
Jiang Xingkuo was secretly rummaging through Doctor Ji's medicine box. She took out a box of medicine written entirely in foreign languages and stuffed it into her sleeve.
"Xingxing...you..."
"Shh...get some antibiotics, to save your life."
She pretended nothing had happened and pulled An Huanyan into the house.
The two of them looked at the old man eating with relish, and while he was happy, they quickly pulled his sleeves.
"Thank you for your hard work, Doctor Ji! Eat more."
"Is it delicious? Doctor Ji, isn't it convenient to check someone's injuries while taking the prescription?"
Before he could answer, Teng Xi walked in. Upon hearing this strange name, he couldn't help but look at them a few more times, but quickly walked to the two of them and whispered:
"Princess, young lady. Miss Wei... doesn't want to be examined by Divine Doctor Ji. She said... she said... there are differences between men and women..."
The two were stunned.
All the doctors I had consulted before said that there was nothing they could do because the injuries were too severe and would definitely leave scars.
They thought that since it was a rare visit by Doctor Ji, it would be a good idea to let him check on Wei Chuchu.
"If you ask me, this patient is determined to die and doesn't want to be treated. You really can't do anything about her."
Doctor Ji burped and picked up the milk tea to sip it.
Before leaving, I asked Doctor Ji to leave his address, but he refused to do so.
"Why don't you give me the jade platform? I think you have trained her to be really good at it! Why don't you travel around with me? I will definitely treat her like my own daughter and she will live a life of ease!"
"Hey? Why are you, an old man, poaching people?!" Jiang Xingkuo quickly pulled Yutai behind him.
"Thank you for your kindness, doctor. But the princess and the young lady have been so kind to me that I swear to follow them till death."
Yutai came out with confidence and bowed.
"Well, well. What a pity..." Doctor Ji looked regretful.
"What's a pity?"
Doctor Ji didn't want to say anything more, just waved his hand and was about to leave.
In desperation, Jiang Xingkuo let go of the sleeve he had been holding tightly.
When Doctor Ji climbed onto the ox cart, he suddenly turned around and smiled:
"On the night of August 15, there will be heavy rain accompanied by thunderstorms."
The two were shocked again.
"This is the only chance this year. Don't miss it!"
The old voice of Doctor Ji entered their ears, making them feel confused.
Before they knew it, their hands were tightly clasped together.
