Reborn to marry, the short-lived prince lived a hundred years
Chapter 51: Troubled times
When Meng Tingyue woke up, she smelled the familiar fragrance, glanced sideways, and saw Nanny Qin standing by. She then looked around and saw the familiar furnishings in the room.
She returned to the Prince's Mansion.
"Thank God, and thank Buddha for blessing me, I finally woke up." Nanny Qin's heart finally settled down.
Qinglan and Qingdian came over, their eyes flashing with unconcealable joy.
"How long have I been in a coma?"
"After an hour and a half, the imperial physician said that the Crown Princess was hit hard and needs to rest well." Nanny Qin's words were full of love for Meng Tingyue.
Qinglan's eyes reddened upon hearing this, filled with guilt, "It's all my fault. I didn't protect the Crown Princess well..."
"Alright, alright, I'm fine. He wanted to push me, and you can't predict the future, so how can you guess what he's thinking?"
Seeing Qinglan crying, Meng Tingyue hurriedly coaxed her.
When she stood up, the wound on her head moved and she frowned in pain.
Seeing this, Qinglan's tears froze instantly, and she hurriedly said, "Miss, lie down quickly and don't move anymore."
Meng Tingyue lay back down again as she was told.
"What about Meng Yitang, what does father plan to do?"
Upon hearing this, Qingdian was furious and said indignantly, "I heard that he will be handed over to the master for punishment, but the master loves the third young master so much, I'm afraid it will only be a symbolic punishment, and he won't even be willing to touch his fur."
Meng Tingyue said, "No, this time he hurt me in public, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was present. Dad won't do it the same way he did before. He needs to give an explanation to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and Meng Yitang will definitely suffer a beating."
"It would be best if he could be beaten so hard that he couldn't get out of bed for a month."
"That doesn't make you feel better. The Crown Princess's body is so precious. The wound on her neck hasn't healed yet, and now she has a head injury. Are you mad at me? How could you have so many injuries in just three days?"
Qinglan complained.
Shen Yunheng stopped outside the door and happened to hear these words.
"Your Highness, are you still going in?" Ling Xiao's voice was low and light, with a hint of temptation.
Shen Yunheng shook his head slightly and turned away.
"Forget it, forget it, let's not mention this matter anymore." said Nanny Qin.
Several servants came in one after another, holding trays in their hands.
Qingdian walked quickly forward and carefully examined the items on the tray.
"Princess Consort, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has sent some things over." Qingdian's voice was clear and pleasant.
"Oh? What is it?" Meng Tingyue tilted her head slightly, a hint of curiosity flashing in her eyes.
"Some medicinal herbs to nourish the body."
Then take it." Meng Tingyue's interest instantly dissipated, and there was a hint of disappointment in her tone.
She thought to herself, she was injured, why didn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come?
Is he really just a piece of wood with no emotions?
A trace of irritation rose in Meng Tingyue's heart.
……
Meng Tingyue spent several days healing the wound on her head. She stayed in the house for a few days feeling suffocated. When the wound scabbed over and was almost healed, she couldn't wait to go out.
"Princess Consort, you've only rested for three days and your wound hasn't healed completely yet. It's better not to go out." Qing Dian was worried.
"I'm the doctor. If I say it's okay, then it's okay."
She snatched the veil from Qingdian's hand and put it on her head.
After leaving the house, he rushed to Renxin Hall without stopping.
There were several customers buying medicine in Renxin Hall, so she waited on the side.
Only after all the customers had sold their medicine and left did Qingdian go forward to find the medicine boy.
"Is Doctor Guo here?"
The medicine boy was naturally a human Qingdang. He raised his hand and pointed to the inner room: "Doctor Guo is inside."
Meng Tingyue was followed by Qinglan and Qingdian, and the three of them entered the inner room together.
Doctor Guo was checking the newly arrived medicinal herbs in the inner room. When he heard someone entering, he walked straight to the small table next to him.
After sitting down, he slowly raised his head and said, "I feel uncomfortable over there..."
Seeing Qingdian, a hint of unnaturalness crossed his face. "So it's Miss Qingdian. Are you here to see a doctor or get medicine today?"
As he spoke, his eyes involuntarily turned to the man with a veil behind him.
Meng Tingyue sat down leisurely and lifted the veil on her head, revealing a plain and elegant face without any makeup.
"Doctor Guo."
Without Meng Tingyue's introduction, Lord Guo suddenly understood and immediately knelt on the ground.
"I have met the Crown Princess."
The two daughters of the Meng family, one married into the Eastern Palace, the other betrothed to the Fifth Prince, a fact that had long been common knowledge in the capital. Furthermore, Doctor Guo had met Meng Tingyue once before, and although time had passed, the memory remained clear.
"Doctor Guo, please stand up." Meng Tingyue raised her hand slightly.
Doctor Guo wiped the sweat off his face and took his seat.
"I wonder if the Crown Princess is feeling unwell?"
Meng Tingyue shook her head slightly.
Qinglan quickly took out two medicine packets and a prescription and placed them on the table in front of Doctor Guo.
Doctor Guo slowly reached out to take the prescription.
His eyes fixed on it, and he read the words carefully. His heart couldn't help but tremble suddenly, "Isn't this the prescription I wrote for the Crown Princess to recuperate?"
Meng Tingyue nodded slightly, "Please, Doctor Guo, check those two doses of medicine."
Doctor Guo opened the two medicine packets and began to check the medicinal materials inside under Meng Tingyue's gaze.
"Did Doctor Guo find anything wrong?" Meng Tingyue asked lightly, her voice clear, cold and melodious.
These words sounded like a death warrant to Doctor Guo. Every word struck his heartstrings and sent a chill down his spine.
"I don't know what the Crown Princess is talking about." Doctor Guo tried to remain calm, but his voice was trembling.
Seeing that he refused to admit it, Meng Tingyue slowly mentioned a few medicine names.
"If Doctor Guo still insists on his innocence, I wouldn't mind sending these two medicinal herbs to the palace for careful examination by the imperial physicians."
Hearing this, his face turned pale instantly, his legs seemed to lose all strength, and he fell to the ground involuntarily.
"Princess, please understand. None of this was my original intention. I was coerced into replacing the herbs."
Meng Tingyue's eyes were as still as water, without a trace of surprise.
On the other hand, the blue and indigo behind her had eyes like raging waves, and their shock was hard to conceal.
“When was the medicine replaced?”
At this point, Dr. Guo had nothing to hide.
"Nine years ago."
These three words, like a heavy hammer, fell on Meng Tingyue's heart. The handkerchief in her palm was unconsciously twisted tightly.
"Nine years ago, wasn't that the incident shortly after the Crown Princess returned to the capital from Jiangnan?"
Qinglan's voice was as angry as a volcano about to erupt. She could no longer hold back and kicked Doctor Guo hard on his thin shoulder.
Doctor Guo collapsed to the ground, his weather-beaten face now filled with despair and dejection.
"No wonder I haven't been able to recover from my illness all these years. I see." Meng Tingyue nodded in understanding, then asked sharply, "Who instructed you to do this?"
"Xiao family."
Meng Tingyue was stunned, and could hardly believe her ears, "Which Xiao family?"
"Jiangnan Xiao Family."
