Medical Princess - Chapter 462

“It’s true, Doctor Qi. This time is true. This is the future wife of Prince Chen. She was framed and going to become a nun!” Xiao Xuanzi explained eagerly.

Shao Wanru’s face turned red immediately. Even though this was the truth, why did it sound so weird!

Yujie was also anxious, and she explained loudly, “What are you talking about? Who wants to be a nun? Our Miss wants to go to the nunnery to observe the filial piety of the former heir of Duke Xing’s Mansion and Infanta Qinghua!”

“Yes, yes, she will go to the nunnery to observe the filial duty. That’s what I mean.” Xiao Xuanzi nodded repeatedly to agree.

Doctor Qi was suspicious. He looked at Chu Liuchen, who had not woken up yet, and then looked at Shao Wanru, who was small but beautiful. He sighed and said, “Your Prince really loves beauty even if he doesn’t care about his life!”

“Doctor Qi, what are you talking about? This is the future princess determined by our Empress Dowager to our master. Who could care more about her than our master!”

Xiao Xuanzi said with a smile.

“Well, he can’t be like this in the future.” Doctor Qi looked at Xiao Xuanzi’s lazy face helplessly.

“Of course. No one would go against his or her own life. Our master has thought it through recently. After you go back to the capital city, our master takes medicine regularly. He basically takes the medicine. He won’t find it useless and even refuse to take the medicine when he loses his temper like before!”

Xiao Xuanzi bowed and scraped to say something nice to him.

“In the aspect of taking medicine, Prince is more conscious than before!” Doctor Qi said and then waved his hand impatiently. “Help your master go back and rest for a while. Later, I will make some medicine for him, and tell him to drink it well this time. Otherwise, let alone the future, he will lose his life now!”

“Yes, yes, how could he not keep his life? Every day counts, and the life is his. Am I right?” Xiao Xuanzi nodded repeatedly, with a bitter smile on his face.

At the thought of Chu Liuchen’s illness and hearing Xiao Xuanzi’s words, Shao Wanru’s heart sank. The flush on her face faded away slowly and she sighed secretly.

Was this illness really incurable? How long had he lived since she died in her previous life?

But in her last life, he seemed to be living well when she saw him. Although his lips were paler than ordinary people’s, they were just a little pale. He looked sickly handsome. But he was not really weak. He strode down the stairs and looked powerful!

Her heart suddenly trembled, and her eyes were filled with horror. Why did she suddenly think that he was running down the stairs? Shouldn’t her last impression of him be seeing him standing on the top of the stairs?

How did she come up with such an idea all of a sudden?

She suddenly felt a sharp pain in her heart. It seemed that something had pulled her hard. She reached out her hand which had not been held and subconsciously covered her chest.

“Miss…” Yujie saw her abnormality and called her in a low voice.

She let go of her hand and gently shook it, indicating that she was fine. Then she helped Xiao Xuanzi to push out the soft couch made of the wheelchair.

The two old maid, who came from the imperial palace to help before, had already come in. They also gave a hand, and then they steadily carried him out of the room.

“You go back to the palace first!” After the person was settled, Xiao Xuanzi checked carefully and found that there was nothing wrong. Then he waved his hand and said.

After making a bow to Chu Liuchen, the two Nannies who came from the palace left respectfully.

When they arrived at the side door connecting the Prince Chen’s Mansion and the palace, they also lifted the previous soft couch and went back to the Imperial Palace to report to the Empress Dowager.

“Fifth Miss, please come with me!” Xiao Xuanzi said while pushing Chu Liuchen.

The wheelchair was put flat and it was very long. Yujie was helping in the front, in case the back of the wheelchair was pushed in the wrong direction and it hit the corner of the wall.

Shao Wanru nodded. She really couldn’t leave at this moment. Chu Liuchen’s hand was still on her wrist, and he didn’t want to let her go.

“Doesn’t Your Highness like taking medicine?” Shao Wanru casually asked after walking a few steps.

“My master doesn’t like to take medicine. When we were in Jiangzhou, Fifth Miss also saw that. On some days he would take while on other days he would not. Sometimes he extremely did not want to take medicine and said that it was useless to take that.” Xiao Xuanzi’s voice became low, and his face looked vexed. He said as he walked.

Shao Wanru bit her lips and said, “Then we could just let him do harm to his bodies?”

“Who could control our master? He used to live alone in the mansion and he was the only master in the mansion. If he didn’t want to drink it, no one could control him. Sometimes, Doctor Qi got angry and wanted to leave. Then he heard it and drank medicine. When he entered the palace, my master didn’t let us talk about it with Empress Dowager…”

Xiao Xuanzi’s voice became faint and he said in a weak voice.

She was alone with the death of her parents. From this point of view, she was really similar to Chu Liuchen.

Because he was alone, he was in a bad mood, so he ruined his own health. His body was so poor that it was conceivable that if it went on like this, there would be no hope for him.

Her watery eyes fell slightly and fell on the face of the handsome young man who seemed to walk out of the painting. For some unknown reasons, she had some empathy for him because of their similar situation.

So what if he had the love that everyone envied in the world? He had no father, no mother, and this was destined to be a child’s misery.

Before he was born, he had lost his father, and soon after he was born, he lost his mother. At that time, he was just a baby in swaddling. In this way, he seemed to be poorer than her.

Madam of Duke Xing was bent on harming her. And no one in Duke Xing’s Mansion liked her. However, Chu Liuchen seemed to be more difficult than Shao Wanru!

In the royal family, except for the Empress Dowager who really loved him, even the Emperor’s love for him was for some other reasons. As for his cousins, they were all like black-eyed chickens. They tried to kill him, or even if they didn’t kill him directly, they wanted to plot his life to create a win for them.

It was his life that paved the way for them to success.

Under such circumstances, if he didn’t want to die, he had to rise up.

In his last life, he was able to rush out of the encirclement without any help. It was obvious that he was not a simple person. He was also a poor man!

“Is he really sick again?” Chu Liuzhou sat in the main hall of the Empress, with only two confidants standing around. After listening to the news just now, he patted the table and said happily, “This time, it has nothing to do with me. Something happened in the Imperial Grandmother’s palace. It has something to do with Duke Xing’s Mansion and Rui’an Great Elder Princess.”

“Did the Empress Dowager really marry him this newly appointed Fifth Miss Shao?” The Empress focused on another direction and her brows furrowed tightly. She had guessed it because many servants saw the Empress giving the jade pendant to Shao Wanru.

“Mother, no matter who he’s engaged to, does it matter? Will he be able to survive until he gets married? Although Imperial Grandmother gave jade pendants, didn’t Fifth Miss Shao say she was going to the nunnery to observe mourning for her biological mother? After three years of filial piety, it’s hard to say whether the patient can still live. Look, he knows his own illness and doesn’t want to live now and then. That’s what happened.”

In the past, such a thing had happened to Chu Liuchen in the palace. At first, the imperial physician didn’t know it, and they were deeply troubled. But later, they gradually realized that Prince Chen didn’t want to live at all, so he made such a scene.

Some people pitied him for his behavior, while some sighed for him. Everyone said that this Prince Chen Your Highness was incomparably handsome, but his fate had suffered a lot, and he might not be blessed.

He was so close to becoming the Crown Prince, but he was just a little short of it. Since he was born, he had been sick all the time. Even if he wanted to save his life, he might not be able to do it.

“You are right!” The Empress breathed a sigh of relief. Shao Wanru, who was newly found, did not know whether she could marry into Prince Chen’s Mansion. Since she was not favored in Duke Xing’s Mansion, even if she really had the opportunity to marry into Prince Chen’s Mansion in the future, there was nothing to worry about. Duke Xing’s Mansion would not stand up for the side of Prince Chen’s Mansion because of her.

“Mother, you don’t have to pay attention to this trouble-making patient who always courted death. I don’t think you need to pay attention to him. I’m just afraid that someone will kill him and hurt us by making us the scapegoat. You should just pay some attention to him to let him not get too close to me. But Chu Liuyue is not easy to deal with recently.”

Chu Liuzhou sneered and banged his hand on the table heavily. He said, “It is a tradition to establish the legitimate son rather than the older son. He is just the eldest son of a concubine. Does he really think he is noble?”

At the thought of someone saying so in the court, Chu Liuzhou felt very angry. His eyes were full of anger.

“It’s not just Chu Liuyue. You should also pay attention to Prince Cheng!” The Empress reminded her son as she saw more of it.

“Mother, you’re worrying too much. Look at Prince Cheng. He is still not willing to get married. What else can he think? Even if he’s fighting for the throne, what can he do? If he doesn’t get married, he won’t even have children. Don’t you see how he is trying to get rid of the marriage bestowed by Father? It’s as if he’s really going to become a monk.”

Chu Liuzhou waved his hand disapprovingly. He remembered seeing all kinds of Miss from aristocratic family in Prince Cheng’s Mansion that day. They not only failed to attract Prince Cheng, but also made him try his best to get rid of them.

He even took the disgraceful daughter of Ningyuan Army General’s Mansion as an excuse to escape again.

Was it really so hard to get married? Wasn’t it a good thing?

Not only could he marry a beautiful woman who he liked, but he could also get the support of the beautiful woman’s family. He reached out and pinched his chin. Chu Liuzhou thought that he must choose the most suitable woman. Prince Cheng didn’t want but he wanted.

Not only did he want them, but he also had to pick a few more!

Who would complain about too many assistants?

“Prince Cheng is not simple. Zhou’er, don’t take it lightly. If he really has no desire, why did he sneak to the capital city on that day? In such a lively day, shouldn’t he guard the Buddha statue more peacefully and recite more heart sutras? Why did he sneak down the mountain? Besides, you said he has no child. It’s very easy for him to have children. He is not much older than you. He can directly take in three palaces and six yards. It doesn’t matter how many children he wants to have!”

Seeing Chu Liuzhou’s indifferent look, the Empress’s face became more and more serious. She had thought about what had happened to Prince Cheng several times, and she became more and more alert!

“It’s true! Mother, I’ll send more people to keep an eye on him. Does he really want to wait until father is dead and let him be the successor? He does not have the same ability as father!” Chu Liuzhou sneered.

The brother succeeding the course of his father was a joke. Father had so many sons, how could he need a younger brother?

“Don’t think so much. Let’s see which family do you like. These are the candidates I pick for you.” The Empress did not say much since she saw her son taking it into consideration. This thing was not urgent. It’s okay if he took it seriously. She gave him a stack of paintings. Now they needed to focus on the marriage of her son.

She had to choose a marriage that would help her son…
