Chapter 774 Kind and Generous. She Is Acting?
After hesitating for a moment, Shuqi subconsciously looked at Shao Yanru lying on the bed. Not sure about the medical skills of Fifth Miss, she became nervous. Fifth Miss wouldn’t find that First Miss was actually awake, would she?
She knew that Fifth Miss knew medical skills because Nanny Yu had told her so. Nanny Yu thought that Fifth Miss’s medical skills were excellent, but no one in the whole mansion took her words seriously. Even Old Madam, whom Fifth Miss had treated at that time, said that she was not good. Now, when she wanted her to feel the pulse, Shuqi felt uneasy.
Fifth Miss really had excellent medical skills?
Shao Yanru was motionless on the bed, looking like she had fainted, aware of nothing. Helpless, Shuqi could only take her hand down. Shao Wanru put her hand on her sister’s pulse and began to treat her.
Shao Yanru’s condition was bad indeed. The cold air that had been left in her from her first fall into the water had not been eliminated, but new cold air had entered her body. She was afraid that it would be hard for her sister to bear children.
It was because her sister had fallen into the water twice and taken the poison. In fact, the poison and the water-falling trap had been prepared for her. Shao Wanru tightly shut her eyes, but there was some hostility in them. She had a silent smile. Shao Yanru had racked her brains to make calculations, but she ended up being hurt by her own schemes. Actually, she reaped what she had sown.
This fall into the water had worsened her health condition.
Shao Wanru put down Shao Yanru’s hand, flapped her eyelashes, and whispered slowly, “My sister has taken some strong medicine, right?”
Lying in bed, Shao Yanru was shocked. Doctor Qiu’s medicine was indeed strong that it could not be taken at will. Although she took it, she had been worried.
She was so afraid that she would have the lingering effect of some disease if she was not careful. What she was most afraid of was that she would not have a son. But when she thought of Shao Wanru’s cunningness, she couldn’t help gritting her teeth. Shao Wanru must be talking nonsense. How much could she find? She was just scaring her.
“Fifth... Fifth Miss, strong medicine?” Not as calm as Shao Yanru, Shuqi was already in a panic now.
“The cold air from my sister’s first fall into the water has not been eliminated. The best way is to recuperate bit by bit, dissipating the cold air in her. This is the safest way. But the medicine my sister takes now is strong. It has quickly dispersed the cold air, but it has not eliminated all of it. And she fell into the water again. I’m afraid...”
Shao Wanru shook her head, showing that she didn’t want to say anything more.
“Fifth... Fifth Miss, what is it?” Shuqi asked in a trembling voice.
Lying in bed, Shao Yanru picked up her ears, ready to carefully listen to Shao Wanru’s answer.
“I’m afraid that her conception will be affected. If unfortunate, she might never have children!” Shao Wanru concluded. Shao Yanru was so angry that she wanted to sit up and scratch Shao Wanru’s face. This b*tch dared to curse her. But she was also relieved. It seemed that this b*tch’s medical skills were really bad. She didn’t even find that she had been poisoned before.
She took Doctor Qiu’s medicine because she had taken the poison. It was not only because of the cold air from the fall into the water.
Shao Wanru’s medical skills were bad, so she wouldn’t believe anything she said. She was frightening her, so who would take her words seriously?
“The imperial physician is here!” Someone shouted outside. Shao Wanru hurriedly retreated to the place behind the bed. Shuqi put down the gauze bed curtain and then went to the door to welcome the imperial physician.
The imperial physician came in a hurry, sat in the chair next to the bed, and took Shao Yanru’s pulse. A long time later, he finally put her hand down.
“How’s our Miss, imperial physician?” Shuqi said as she wiped away her tears.
“The cold air in your Miss’s body is quite strong. It seems that it still can’t be eliminated after a long time of treatment, and she also fell into the water today. I’m afraid that this will affect her future conception, so she needs to take more care of her health!” the imperial physician thought for a while and answered seriously in the most moderate way. This was a standard answer indeed.
The one in bed was First Miss of Duke Xing’s Mansion with a very good reputation. It was said that she was bound to be chosen in the Consort Selection, so the imperial physician dared not say too much about a few things. If he said that the lady would have difficulty in bearing children or she might not be able to keep her baby even if she got pregnant, he might offend her. In this case, he thought that it was better to say it prudently.
There might be a glimmer of hope for things in the future, although he didn’t think it was possible for First Miss Shao to have children.
Hearing the imperial physician’s words, Shuqi heaved a sigh of relief and thought that Shao Wanru had just exaggerated the seriousness of the condition. More importantly, her Miss was taking Doctor Qiu’s medicine. Earlier, she had heard that her Miss got much better.
“Thank you very much, imperial physician. But why hasn’t our Miss woken up yet?” Shuqi wiped her tears and asked anxiously. Shao Yanru was still lying motionless on the bed, without a trace of vitality.
“Well...” The imperial physician was confused. He thought that except for the cold air in her that would affect her future conception, she shouldn’t have been unconscious like this. “Let’s wait a little longer. Nothing serious will happen!”
“If anything serious happens, what will it be? Will our Miss remain unconscious and never wake up?” Shuqi burst into tears.
The sudden cry made Chu Liuyue, who was standing outside, knit his eyebrows even more tightly. With accidents happening one after another, he felt so upset. If he had known this, he would not have brought Shao Yanru here.
“There won’t be anything serious. I’ll give her a prescription first,” the imperial physician said.
Flustered, Shuqi watched the imperial physician leave.
“I’m going to ask the imperial physician about my sister’s real condition,” Shao Wanru came out from behind the bed and said to Shuqi.
Shuqi nodded. She really didn’t know what to do at this time. With Shao Wanru being her backbone, she was a little relieved.
Shao Wanru went out with Yujie. Seeing Chu Liuyue standing in the corridor, she bowed sideways and said, “Your Highness, where has the imperial physician gone to prepare the prescription?”
“He has gone to treat the other two, and then he will write their prescriptions together!” Chu Liuyue said. Although seeing the other two made him annoyed, he had to do something for them.
“Then I’ll wait outside for the imperial physician to come out!” Shao Wanru nodded and said. Then she walked down the steps and stood in the yard, waiting.
Chu Liuyue had wanted to ask her about Shao Yanru’s condition. But when he saw her walk out, he didn’t think it was suitable to ask her to stay. After thinking for a while, he turned and entered the room. Anyway, Shao Yanru was dragged in by him, and she would be his consort, so he needed to go and see her specific condition.
Hearing the sound, Shuqi looked up and saw Chu Liuyue, so she hurried over to bow with red eyes. “Your Highness!”
Chu Liuyue walked to the bed, looked at the ashen Shao Yanru, and asked, “How’s your Miss?”
“Our Miss hasn’t woken up yet. The imperial physician said... he said that she might not be good, and we will see if she could wake up!” Shuqi sobbed.
Chu Liuyue felt a little fidgety and his face turned cold. “Shut up!”
Shocked, Shuqi instantly covered her mouth and stepped aside, for fear of disturbing Chu Liuyue with even a little noise.
Shao Yanru, who was lying on the bed, slowly opened her eyes at this time. She looked at the top of the tent in a daze as if she hadn’t known where she was now.
“Miss...” Shuqi was so excited that she wanted to speak again, but she shivered and did not dare to rush over when she saw Chu Liuyue.
“Shuqi...” Shao Yanru said a little hoarsely with difficulty.
Seeing the extremely weak Shao Yanru on the bed, Chu Liuyue became gentle. He sat down in the chair next to the bed and held her hand to comfort her. “How do you feel? Do you feel anything uncomfortable?”
Shao Yanru’s washed-out eyes glistened with a little surprise when she heard his voice. She turned over with difficulty to look at him and suddenly held his robe. Then her tears fell drop by drop. “Your Highness... I thought I wouldn’t see you anymore!”
Seeing the fragile expression on her delicate face, even a man like Chu Liuyue had pity for her. Then he held her cold hand and said softly, “It’s all right. Nothing bad will happen. It’s all over now!”
“Your Highness... Your Highness...” Shao Yanru struggled to get up, threw herself into Chu Liuyue’s arms by the bed, and burst into tears. She seemed so fragile that she would turn into pieces if someone touched her.
Such a beautiful woman could not let go of him. Even when she had just woken up, the first person she thought of was him. Thinking of this, Chu Liuyue couldn’t help having a gentle smile, letting her rush into his arms. He patted her back and said, “Don’t be afraid. It’s all right. Everything is all right!”
Lying in Chu Liuyue’s arms, Shao Yanru cried and asked, “Your Highness, how... how are the two of them?”
“What else should happen to them? Just send them out of the palace!” Chu Liuyue’s face darkened. He really didn’t want to mention the two ladies who had ruined his plan.
“But... but they are the daughters of important officials after all. Your highness, even if you don’t want to show them respect, you have to show their fathers and brothers respect. You should spare them!” Shao Yanru trembled all over, but she was still trying to put in a good word for the two ladies.
Chu Liuyue looked down at her. Her hair was in a mess, making her look so pathetic. Even so, she was still pleading for other girls. Actually, he could make her his princess. At least, she could keep his backyard in peace.
The problem that he had been thinking about moments earlier didn’t seem to be so annoying when he saw that Shao Yanru thought for his good wholeheartedly. When he fell into the water, he had clearly felt that he subconsciously grabbed Shao Yanru’s sleeve but then she grabbed him tightly. Before they fell into the water, she had asked people to save him first, completely ignoring herself.
Shao Yanru truly thought for his good wholeheartedly in terms of this. Inexplicably, his heart softened. As for her first fall into the water, a few people knew it, but they wouldn’t spread it, so that was over.
Moreover, with such proof in his hands, he believed that Duke Xing’s Mansion wouldn’t dare to disobey him. And it was acceptable to make Shao Yanru his princess!
When he saw that Shao Yanru considered things from his point of view with her heart and soul, the slight hesitation he had had moments earlier disappeared!
“Don’t worry. I won’t be dragged in.” Chu Liuyue comforted her. Then he patted her back and held her in his arms, but only he knew that he was still thinking about how much he could force Shao Yanru and Duke Xing’s Mansion to compromise with the mistake Shao Yanru had made earlier.
Thinking of this, he knew that a mistake could be used. “So be it!” he said to himself inwardly.
Chu Liuyue gently touched Shao Yanru’s smooth face, looked down, and said, “Don’t worry, I will marry you and make you my princess to give our love in former days a good result.”
But the door was suddenly kicked open with a bang...
