Chapter 239
Ling Jingshu took the prescription and folded it into her purse
In order to keep people’s attention, every time she came to Huechun Hall for a consultation, she had to stay for half an hour before going out
Ling Jingshu estimated that the time was almost up, and smiled as she got up, “I’ve been delayed for so long again, and I’m afraid that the patients outside are waiting anxiously”
Every time she came without a number plate, she was the first to see the doctor
This special treatment was something that the family members of officials in the dynasty did not have
Wei Yan did not show the unwillingness in his heart on his face, and stood up with a smile as well, “Good, I’ll see you out”
Ling Jingshu gave a hmmm, and when she walked to the door, she suddenly remembered something and turned her head to ask, “Have you been well in the palace lately?
Empress Xu hasn’t been looking for trouble, has she?”I can’t talk about trouble, but calling him every few days to check his pulse is unavoidable
Wei Yan does not want to mention more, casually responded: “Rest assured, these years I have coped with, do not have to worry about my chastity”
Speaking of the word chastity, it was not without a sense of self-deprecation
Ling Jingshu couldn’t help but laugh dumbly, but on second thought, laughing out loud like that would be too disrespectful to Wei Yan
Busy coughing, trying her best to collect her laughter, comforting Wei Yan: “His Majesty’s body is healthy, Empress Xu always has to act with some scruples, and would never dare to tear her face off and force herself on you”
Wei Yan tugged at the corner of his lips and said lightly, “I am proficient in medicine, and she will never dare to use those unorthodox medicines on me
Furthermore, the Emperor has quite a lot of respect and trust for me
If Empress Xu acts too arrogantly, I’ll spell fish death to expose all her dirty mind”
It hadn’t been done because the situation hadn’t gotten that bad yet
Moreover, Wei Yan also had a lot of concerns
Wei Jieyu’s mother and daughter were both in the palace, and every word and action was under Empress Xu’s watchful eye
Outside the palace, there is the increasingly powerful Yan Wang
Without certainty, never act rashly
He can disregard his own life, but he cannot disregard Wei Jieyu and Princess Anning
Wei Yan did not need to say these words, but Ling Jingshu could also appreciate them
Being in a difficult situation, with many scruples, he had to force himself to live in secrecy
Such a life is heavy and helpless
In order to guard the closest and most important people, one could only insist on endurance
Compared to the recklessness of fastidiousness, such stoic strength was more touching and worthy of respect
Ling Jingshu gave Wei Yan a deep look, and only after a long time, did she whisper, “Anyway, you take care of everything and take care of yourself”
Wei Yan hmmmed, “You take care of yourself too”
In these two months or so, Empress Xu had acted too calmly
When Wei Jieyu called Ling Jingshu to the palace, Empress Xu neither asked about it nor called Ling Jingshu to go to the Pepper Room Hall
As if nothing had happened before
With Empress Xu’s cunning, suspicious, sinister and ruthless nature, it was unreasonable to let Ling Jingshu off the hook so easily
It was more like the calm before a storm
He had been secretly on guard, watching out for Empress Xu’s moves
If that day really came, no matter what, he would have to guard Ling Jingshu safe and sound
Wei Yan’s eyes, which contained complex emotions in their calmness, stayed in Ling Jingshu’s heart for a long time and did not recede
After Ling Jingshu walked out of Wei Yan’s line of sight, she stopped and stood in place for a moment
After a long time, she let out another soft sigh
Bai Yu’s voice rang in her ears, interrupting Ling Jingshu’s thoughts, ”Miss, you’ve finally come out
Qiaoyun and I have been waiting here for half a day”
Ling Jingshu came back to her senses and smiled slightly apologetically, “Today, Imperial Doctor Wei gave me a new prescription, so I was delayed a little more
Let’s go, A Xiao and the others must be waiting impatiently as well”
Bai Yu smiled and answered
Stepping from the inner hall into the outer hall of Hui Chun Hall, Ling Jingshu quickly adjusted her mind and was about to open her mouth to call out to someone when she suddenly realized that something was wrong
Strange, why did Ling Jingyan have a huffy look on her face?
Also, who was the strange young man standing beside her?
Ling Jingshu didn’t move to take a look at the man
Looking about seventeen or eighteen years old, he was young and handsome, the corners of his lips were upturned, and when he wasn’t smiling, he also carried a three-quarter pleasing smileFather, Ah Xiao, cousin Yan”
Ling Jingshu walked forward and greeted them one by one, pretending to be curious as she asked Ling Jingyan in a low voice, “Who is this gentleman?
Why is he here?”
Ling Jingyan couldn’t help but skim her lips, “This is the son of Minister Zhang of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, called Zhang Jian”
As for how this Zhang Jian came to be, it was too bad that he didn’t want to mention a single word about it
Ling Jingyan’s expression was really flexible, written with dislike for Zhang Jian
Ling Jingshu barely held back her laughter as she looked at Zhang Jian, “So it’s Mr Zhang”
The moment he saw Ling Jingshu’s face clearly, a hint of amazement flashed across Zhang Jian’s eyes
This was a normal reaction that all men would have when seeing a beautiful young girl
However, after this flash of amazement, Zhang Jian did not lose his composure and quickly returned to his normal self, courteously arching his hand and saying, “My name is Zhang Jian, I have met Ms Ling”
Ling Jingyan skimmed her lips on the side again
Men were indeed all fond of beauty
This Zhang Jian, when he was facing her, he was black-faced and deliberately teasing
Now that he saw Ling Jingshu, he immediately turned into a humble gentleman!
Hmph!
Ling Jingshu smiled and asked, “I wonder how Mr Zhang befriended Cousin Yan?”
With Ling Jingshu’s temperament, there was a good chance that she had gotten into trouble
Zhang Jian gave Ling Jingyan a difficult look, with a hesitant expression, “This matter, it’s a bit of a long story
Let’s not talk about it!”
Ling Jingyan’s eyes widened and she glared viciously at Zhang Jian, “Who wants you to pretend to be kind
The beginning of this matter was indeed my fault, and I didn’t renege on the debt!
I also said that I would pay you back the silver
It’s you who intentionally played a trick on me, and you have the nerve to put on this aggrieved look!”
She was still full of grievances!
Zhang Jian looked at Ling Jingyan’s angry and reddish face and her round eyes, and the more he looked at her, the more interested he felt
He had never seen such a lively, outspoken and lovely young girl!
In terms of looks and temperament, it was obvious that this Miss Ling who appeared after him was superior
But strangely enough, his mind was attracted to her
Zhang Jian looked at Ling Jingyan and said with a straight face, “It’s not right for you to say that
I’ve already explained earlier, what I said before was just a casual joke, I didn’t expect you to take it seriously
In the future, when you encounter similar things, you should first understand the original cause of the matter before intervening
Also lest you wrongly accuse a good person, good intentions did the wrong thing”
After all was said and done, he was the one who had the right of it
Ling Jingyan hummed resentfully, “In that case, I still have to thank you”
Zhang Jian grinned, “If you really have the heart to thank me, why don’t you treat me to dinner at noon!”
Ling Jingyan: “”
