The stunning beauty of Qing Dynasty

Chapter 262: Illness Discovered

Seeing the old doctor's strange expression, the Tenth Prince was afraid that the child was already dying, so he said quickly: "Doctor, please treat the child. This child must be saved no matter what. Don't worry about the money."

Knowing that the young man had misunderstood his words, the old doctor stroked his beard and explained carefully: "Don't worry, sir. I have checked the child's body and there is nothing wrong with him. He is just weak due to lack of nutrition. He is unconscious now because his stomach is empty."

In short, the child fainted from hunger.

The Tenth Prince understood what he meant, and his shoulders relaxed. He finally breathed a sigh of relief, and glared at the careless guard who had just threatened to kill him.

As long as he wasn't the one who killed him.

However, since he met this child, it was fate. When he saw such a young child, he naturally would not let him starve to death on the roadside.

After instructing several palace maids, she went to the roadside to buy a bowl of sugar water and some easily digestible food. Now there were only a few snacks at hand, so the palace maids had no choice but to grind the snacks into powder and feed them to the child's mouth.

In the system space, Qingyin, who was chewing a pear in soul state, watched the Tenth Prince and Wu Yanmeng busily feeding snacks to his shell.

Yes, the Tenth Prince is quite upright, but he looks a little silly, Qingyin thought. After eating a pear, Qingyin pretended to return to that body.

After a while, the dirty child's long eyelashes moved like a small fan.

The Tenth Prince, who was sitting nearby, saw this and couldn't help but use his hand to gesture at the child's eyelashes, sighing that the eyelashes of the child he picked up were quite long. He wondered if it was a boy or a girl?

Wu Yanmeng, who was standing by, slapped her brother's dirty hands away, "Tenth brother! He's a patient, why are you still bullying him!"

"Bully him? How did I bully him?" The Tenth Prince was filled with indignation, but at the obvious vigilance in the eyes of the chubby girl, he lightly said "tsk".

Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with the kid.

Qingyin woke up in this situation. When she raised her eyes, she saw the unlucky guy this time, a chubby, delicate little girl, who was looking at her curiously and with a reassuring look that she didn't notice.

Qingyin was unable to speak. The little strength she had regained from the snacks she had just been fed was already used up when she tried to get up.

The dirty child suddenly stood up, then was about to fall down due to exhaustion. If it weren't for the Tenth Prince's help, the child would have fallen back heavily with a bulge on his face.

The tiny body was taken in his arms, and the Tenth Prince no longer cared about the dirt on the child. He was only shocked by how small the body was. The child was only a head smaller than Qingyan, but he seemed to have no weight in his arms. The child also felt light all over, as if it was all bones. The child was too thin.

It was the first time that the Tenth Prince saw such a thin person around him, and a child at that. The handsome boy couldn't help but frown. Growing up in the palace and being born as a royal family, he couldn't imagine that there were such miserable people in the world.

Although he was a bit of a germaphobe, he didn't dare let go of such a child. This child was so thin that he would probably break into a pile of scattered bones if he fell to the ground. The Tenth Prince actually believed this exaggerated association.

But Wu Yanmeng didn't care what her tenth brother thought. Looking at the child being held by her tenth brother, she said anxiously, "Tenth brother, put him down quickly. He must be uncomfortable holding him like this."

The Tenth Prince didn't know whether to punish the little girl for her bent arm, or to sympathize with the child. His face darkened and he solemnly put the child back to its original place, a soft bed that could barely be considered a bed.

"Hey, little Fatty Yan doesn't know this yet, you're the only one who's smart!"

"Then why don't you let him go quickly, Brother Shi?" Wu Yanmeng asked with a pout.

The tenth prince was speechless for a moment. Could he tell my younger sister that he was afraid that the child would break if he put it down? He was afraid that once he said this, he would be laughed at by my younger sister.

For a moment, the smaller girl gained the upper hand in the conversation between the two.

……

The child never said a word during the dispute between the two.

But his big black eyes, as white as glass, kept rolling around and staring at the two people in front of him who seemed to have saved him.

Looking at this scene, the old doctor who was observing the child on the side couldn't help but have an ominous premonition in his heart.

Maybe, maybe he was wrong. This child was so thin and looked like a refugee, so his existence should not be that unfortunate.

"Sir, Miss, can you let me take a look at this child's mouth and throat?"

The old doctor's voice interrupted the argument between the two.

In fact, over such a long time, the two people who were not stupid and could even be considered talented had already noticed that something was wrong with the child.

For example, normal people would subconsciously scream when encountering something unexpected, but this child did not react at all.

The old doctor walked up to Qingyin and coaxed her, "Little kid, grandpa is a doctor, open your mouth..."

Without waiting for more coaxing words, the child had already opened his mouth obediently.

The old doctor, who was used to coaxing those naughty children to be obedient, looked at the little baby who opened his mouth obediently without waiting for him to persuade him, and there was a trace of genuine pity and sympathy in his eyes. Yes, if this child really had a disease and was abandoned, or was a refugee, he would be much more obedient than a normal child loved by a family.

Watching the child's actions, the old doctor's movements became more gentle.

He carefully stretched out his fingers, tilted the child's head up and checked. Seeing the situation was not unexpected, the old man sighed in his heart.

"Sir, Miss, this child has a problem with his throat. It's a congenital disease. He can't speak. This..."

Listening to the old doctor's words, the young man frowned again. This child bumped into him and looked so pitiful. He couldn't just ignore him, thought the prince who had not yet become indifferent.

The little girl at the side couldn't help but pull at the corner of Brother Shi's clothes, "Brother Shi, please keep him here, let him stay with me, I will raise him!" said the little princess solemnly.

The tenth prince rolled his eyes at the confident little princess. Compared to the little princess, he was more sensible. What if, what if this child was lost? Wouldn't that break the parents' hearts?

He walked up to the child and said in a deliberately soft voice: "Hey, kid, do you understand what I'm saying?"

Qing Yin nodded obediently.

"I'll ask you a few questions. If you agree, nod your head. If you disagree, shake your head."

Qingyin continued to nod obediently.

Seeing that the child understood what he said, the Tenth Prince breathed a sigh of relief.

Just understand it.

"Are you lost?"

Qingyin shook her head, (No, I came here to scam people.)

"Do you have a father and a mother?"

Qingyin shook her head. (It used to be there, but now it’s gone.)

"You've been alone all this time?"

Qingyin nodded. (Yes, now it is convenient to find the unlucky tasker.)

……

The more the Tenth Prince asked, the more complicated his expression became, and the people in the carriage looked at the dirty child with more sympathy.

Several people imagined that the abandoned child was begging alone in the capital, despised and hungry, and could not cry out even in pain, so he had to lick his wounds alone in a corner or on a remote street...

Damn! This is too pitiful!

"Tenth brother! I will raise him." The little princess's delicate voice interrupted everyone's imagination.

Looking at the chubby girl whose eyes were filled with tears from her imagination, the Tenth Prince rubbed her head and said, "Raising a child is not like raising other cats and dogs. Can you do it?"

"Of course I can do it. I promise to raise him to be plump and white, like my Wangcai." Wu Yanmeng said confidently.

Wangcai is a birthday gift given by the mother to her youngest daughter, a Pekingese dog of excellent appearance.

Thinking of the little puppy who was only three months old but was as fat as a ball, the Tenth Prince's mouth twitched.

"Okay, take good care of it."

Since there is nothing wrong with the child's identity, it would be fine for the poor little beggar to stay by the little princess' side and be raised as a servant.

Qingyin quietly watched from the side as her future was arranged to be next to the tasker Wu Yanmeng. For now, she could be considered a little playmate.

The Tenth Prince spent a large sum of money to send the old doctor back.

There was only a teenager and two children left in the car.

Looking at the child lying weakly in the shop in front of him, the Tenth Prince was in a dilemma.

He had planned to go to the horse farm with a few good friends this time, but he had been delayed for a long time because of the child's matter. What should he do with the child? If he was to be placed in a place, he had to be sent back to the palace, but this horse farm... A gentleman's word is as good as gold, so how could he go back on what he had said?

The Tenth Prince hesitated.

But Wu Yanmeng, who was smart and understood Brother Ten, had already noticed Brother Ten's thoughts and stared at him suspiciously: "Brother Ten, you don't want someone to send him and me back to the palace, do you?"

The Tenth Prince felt a little uneasy at the bottom of his heart, but his expression did not change at all. "Haha, who said that? Little girl, I promised to take you out to play, how could I send you back?"

"Really?" the little girl said in a strange voice, with an indescribable tone.

"Anyway, both he and I have to go. Humph, if you don't take me with you, I won't speak for you when I return to the palace!" Wu Yanmeng said, pointing at Qingyin who was standing quietly aside.

The Tenth Prince had no choice but to take the two of them to the horse farm.

The atmosphere on the road was a bit weird. The delicate and cute little princess didn't mind the dirtiness of the child she picked up in front of her at all. She came in front of Qingyin and chatted with him.

Most of them were trivial things that happened in her life. One person listened carefully, and the other person talked happily.

The atmosphere here was very harmonious, which amazed the palace maids who usually served the princess. The little princess was doted on by the current emperor and the imperial concubine, and she had always been rather spoiled and unruly. It was rare for her to have someone who loved her so much, and her usual cleanliness obsession disappeared in front of the child.

The palace maid was surprised, and the Tenth Prince was even more surprised. The two were born of the same mother, so naturally he understood his sister's temper. Before, even though the dog that Xiao Qingyan liked was a little dirty, she had to have someone give Wangcai a bath and blow dry before putting him in her hands.

The Tenth Prince was shocked. After thinking over and over again in his mind, he could only think that the little girl had been his savior. His sympathy for the child prevailed, so he liked the child.

In fact, Wu Yanmeng herself wondered why she liked the child in front of her so much. After all, it was just a child, and she felt at ease, as if her soul was telling her that this child was like her mother.

She liked it very much and felt at ease, which made her unconsciously get intimate with the child in front of her.

Although the tasker seemed to accept him, Qingyin did not forget that the current tasker was the beloved little princess in the imperial power, and he was just a beggar saved by the little princess.

The identities of the two are very different, so he has to be careful about what he does.

So when everyone saw it, the rescued little beggar was just sitting quietly by the side, listening attentively to the little princess's chatter without making any noise.

Even the palace maids who didn't pay any attention to the child couldn't help but feel a slight liking for him.

Obedient children are always more lovable.

Qingyin is just like that. Moreover, Qingyin, which has gone through thousands of dynasties, exudes a pleasing glow and always attracts everyone's attention.

And darkness always flocks to light sources.

When the carriage finally arrived at the horse farm, the Tenth Prince led the two children out of the carriage.

Originally, the Tenth Prince wanted to leave the adopted child in the carriage and leave a palace maid to take care of him.

However, the child had obviously regained some strength after eating the porridge bought by the guards behind him, and was following Wu Yanmeng closely.

It looked like I wasn't going to just sit there and wait.

The Tenth Prince thought about it and decided that since there was nothing serious, it would be fine for him to follow. He wouldn't let his younger sister ride a horse anyway because she was so young, so it would be fine for another child to follow.

However, while thinking, the Tenth Prince subconsciously ignored the jealousy in his heart towards the child following his little sister so closely.

Obviously, she is the one who is busy taking care of the child, but the child only trusts the chubby girl Qingyan.

Wu Yanmeng didn't care what her brother thought. She now had the mark of the soul of the Quick Passing Bureau and felt the existence of another tasker. Although she didn't know it yet, she felt vaguely at ease in her heart and became much happier. All the irritability of these days disappeared completely.

Now she was pulling Xiao Qingyin around to look at the horse farm which was very new to them.

The two children, one dirty and one clean, stood out very much.

Especially with several tall guards and palace maids following behind, as well as a young man in gorgeous robes, it looked both strange and indescribably harmonious.

Seeing this scene, the owner of the horse farm couldn't help but step forward and flatter these unique guests.

"Sir, are you here to play at the horse farm? We have several kinds of fine horses here. These horses were bought from the border areas and are all good breeds!"

The confident voice of the boss really aroused the interest of the Tenth Prince.

"Really? Is there that Kicking Snow Wu Ya?" An expert can tell whether there is one with just one move.

This Tixue Wuya is also known as Wuya, and is famous for its four white hooves and black body. According to ancient history, it was once the mount of the Overlord of Western Chu. This brave and warlike warhorse left a reputation that was somewhat regrettable and awe-inspiring because of its master, the Overlord.

This has caused later generations to pursue this kind of BMW even more.

When the boss saw that the young man mentioned this BMW, his eyes lit up immediately. Although he didn't know his identity yet, he knew that the man's family background must be extraordinary since he could recognize this BMW.

Thinking of how much money the old man had paid to sell the horse to him, the boss, who had felt so painful, smiled with his eyes wide open: "Hehe! Young master, you are so lucky. I actually have one."
