Medical Princess

Chapter 908 Just Go and Tell Grandma!

“There is indeed something wrong with the medicine!” The doctor hesitated for a moment and decided to tell the truth after checking the medicine taken out by Meiyan.

“Can I be cured in such a condition?” Qin Yuru crumpled the quilt tightly, with the words squeezing out through the gaps between her teeth.

The doctor was not sure about it and could only say vaguely, “Uh... I’m incompetent to do that. Maybe other good imperial physicians can manage to cure you!”

“Doctor, please write a prescription!” Qin Yuru’s hands and feet were cold.

The doctor breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly followed a servant girl to the wing room to prescribe herbals.

“Madam... Madam...” Meiyan faced the curtain and called her master in a timid voice.

The more silent Qin Yuru was, the more frightened she became.

“If I can’t give birth to a child, Di Yan will have to forget about having a child!” Qin Yuru said with a harsh and cold voice like one that was from Jiuyou Hell. “Let’s go and take a look!”

“Madam, you’d better not go. You might be blamed again if you do!” Meiyan hurriedly stepped forward to lift the gauze curtain and persuaded Qin Yuru.

“How can I reconcile myself if I don’t see them being punished!” Qin Yuru rebuked coldly with a gloomy face. She was no longer the person she was three years ago. If it were three years ago, she would have complained to Old Madam at this time. Now she knew it was useless.

Even if Countess Yong was found to be the culprit, she wouldn’t be punished...

No one in the mansion had ever sided with Qin Yuru.

Just like her abortion this time, which was obviously Di Yan’s fault, he blamed it on her, saying that she was too careless as a pregnant woman so that she lost the child!

Di Yan’s mother also made oblique accusations and said that Qin Yuru should go to the Buddha Temple to cultivate in seclusion and get rid of bad luck after she recovered.

“Get rid of the bad luck? Let’s see who will be the unluckiest person.” Even though Countess Yong was in charge of the inner court, it didn’t mean that Qin Yuru had not made any progress for so many years!

The place Qin Yuru and Meiyan headed for was an attic. Looking down from the window of the second floor, they could see the courtyard below. This courtyard had always been vacant, but there was a scene there now.

First, there was an aggressive young lady who was pregnant. Her belly did not look that big, but she held her waist as if she were about to give birth now. And she was with a very arrogant face.

The scene should have been on for a while because it had not been early anymore when Qin Yuru arrived. A young woman with only one servant girl beside her was facing a group of people. However, her servant girl seemed to be a shrewish person. She stepped forward and pushed the two old maids who rushed to the young woman from the opposite side.

The two old maids were pushed aside, and one of them even fell to the ground. The pregnant woman became angry at once and shouted that she was going to sentence the servant girl and her master to death.

The thing went like this. Anyway, Qin Yuru didn’t come too late since she got the chance to witness the two sides fighting. The pregnant Concubine Tao was knocked down. She lost her balance and fell to the ground, and then screamed.

Everyone stopped fighting. Some people screamed as they ran away, some immediately went to help Concubine Tao up, and some others rushed into the room to get a soft quilt. They wanted to use it to wrap Concubine Tao up and then took her back.

Mei Xue had been standing outside the crowd. When she slipped away quietly, no one ever found that she used to be there.

However, Qin Yuru saw her clearly. Qin Yuru, with a sneer on her face, looked down coldly and said to herself, “What a good fall! There is another fall again. Look, even God can’t stand Duke Yong’s Mansion! Another child is lost again! Duke Yong’s Mansion can’t have a descendant! It is doomed to lose its blood!”

They were very vicious words, and Meiyan lowered her head nervously and did not dare to answer her master.

The same events had happened a lot before. Almost none of the pregnant concubines could manage to give birth to a child. Once a concubine had been pregnant for eight months, but she still came across an accident and lost her child in the end. Of course, it was all because of Qin Yuru.

“How dare you wish to give birth to a kid before the first legitimate child is born?” Qin Yuru was very satisfied with the tragic scene below. She kept enjoying it for a while, and it was until she saw an old maid lead the doctor there that she turned around and left.

Her cold face also showed a smile when she saw the scene. “How happy it is to see Di Yan’s women lose their children!”

When such a thing happened, the servants of Duke Yong’s Mansion didn’t dare to greet each other when they met. They just exchanged eye contact with each other, bowed their heads, and went on their own ways. If they heard the woman’s cries in the courtyard, they only slowed down their footsteps, and later did what they should do. They seemed to have been used to it!

After all, things like that were rare in other mansions but common in Duke Yong’s Mansion. In the past three years, it had happened several times.

Their master, the heir of Duke Yong, had many women, many of whom used to be pregnant. Even his legal wife had lost her babies several times, let alone his concubines. The legal wife suffered it once again a few days ago. So it was no big deal that one of the concubines suffered the same a few minutes ago. Even if she was favored, she was just a concubine.

Jealous of the prostitute, the favored Concubine Tao rushed over and quarreled with the newcomer. Unexpectedly, an unlucky thing happened to her in the fight—she was knocked down to the ground and suffered an abortion.

The same thing happened to the Princess a few days ago.

Since the Princess married into Duke Yong’s Mansion, it had been three years, during which no children had been born in the mansion. The servants secretly gossiped that the Princess was to blame for it. Otherwise, Duke Yong’s Mansion wouldn’t have become more and more unlucky and suffered such bad luck again and again.

Of course, some people said it was because of Duke Yong’s Mansion’s dishonesty. Since they were willing to take her as the Princess, and she was also Old Madam’s granddaughter, why didn’t they treat her with kindness, though they might lose some of their reputations due to the marriage with her?

How could Duke Yong’s Mansion wish to have a concubine’s son before the legitimate son was born? Now, not to mention a son, they hadn’t had a daughter yet! Everyone became very nervous, afraid that there would be another miscarriage.

However, it happened again. And it must be another scene later in the inner court.

Sure enough, after Di Yan came back and heard that his pregnant concubine lost the child again, he stamped his feet in anger and came to see Qin Yuru.

Mei Xue walked out of the room with a basin of water in her hands. When she saw Di Yan coming over with a livid face, she hurriedly greeted him respectfully, “Prince Yan!”

“Get out of my face!” Di Yan waved his hand and knocked over the basin of water.

Mei Xue was so scared that she took two steps back, and half of her clothes were wet.

Di Yan stormed into the inner room and saw Qin Yuru leaning against the bed. With the blue veins throbbing on his forehead, he kicked over a spring stool in front of him and questioned, “Qin Yuru, is it you again?”

Qin Yuru, who was pretending to be asleep on the bed, opened her eyes and looked at Di Yan coldly. She raised the corners of her mouth and sneered, “What are you talking about, Di Yan? I am recuperating here with few people around. How can you blame everything on me? Tell me, what happened this time?”

“Qin Yuru, don’t think that I will let you go because you didn’t admit it!” Di Yan pointed at Qin Yuru and said harshly. He had now become a thin young man, looking a little gloomy. At first glance at his face with two big eye bags, people would know that he had been addicted to too much alcohol and sex with women recently.

“Di Yan, how could you say that after you killed my last child? How dare you come here to make trouble? Okay, let’s go and figure it out whether it is my fault or not! If grandma supports you, I will bang my head against the wall and kill myself in front of you. That also allows you to marry another good wife who can give birth to sons for your mansion!” Qin Yuru retorted with sarcasm.

Now she no longer had any illusions about Di Yan, nor did she expect to get Di Yan’s favor again.

“You... you are such a vicious woman...” Di Yan was angry and anxious, but he didn’t dare to piss her off. He stamped his feet hard and swore, “You will suffer retribution!”

Because of Qin Yuru’s bad temper now, he really didn’t dare to go against her!

“I am vicious? If it weren’t for you, how could I end up like this? Do you treat a concubine as a treasure? Even she gives birth to a boy, he will be just a concubine’s son. Aren’t you going to bring him up as a legitimate son?” Qin Yuru sneered and grabbed the corner of the quilt with both hands.

“You... I’ll tell grandma...” Di Yan said angrily.

“Go! Just go ahead. You don’t deserve to be a human if you don’t go to tell Grandma!” Qin Yuru said stubbornly.

Di Yan was in such a fury that he couldn’t even speak. He reached out to point at Qin Yuru and then kicked hard on the leg of the table to abreact his anger. The teapots and teacups on the table jumped up, and a few cups fell to the ground, making a crisp sound of breaking.

Before Qin Yuru could say more, Di Yan turned around and left. He had to tell Grandma now that he couldn’t live a life with Qin Yuru anymore, so he must divorce the wicked woman. Otherwise, he would leave the family and never come back again.

After investigating it, he had known that the event was instigated by Qin Yuru’s servant girl, Mei Xue. If it hadn’t been for Qin Yuru’s order, Concubine Tao wouldn’t have known that there was a new woman, and she wouldn’t have been knocked down to the ground and lost her child when she was making trouble in that courtyard!

It was all Qin Yuru’s evil plot...

“Madam!” Seeing Di Yan leave, Meiyan and Mei Xue rushed in with pale faces.

“Hum! So what if he complains to Grandma? I won’t let them have a good time even if it is blamed on me!” Qin Yuru snorted coldly with a resentful look.

Since she wouldn’t have a good end, she couldn’t let the people of Duke Yong’s Mansion live a good life.

“Madam, I have something to report to you!” An old maid’s voice suddenly came from outside the room.

The master and her two servant girls were stunned for a moment. Qin Yuru signaled to the two servant girls. Mei Xue went out and saw a strange old maid at the door. She couldn’t help frowning and asking unhappily, “Who are you? Why are you looking for our Madam?”

“I’d like to see Princess. I have something important to tell her. I’m from her shop!”
