Chapter 202
Wei Yan calmed his nerves and walked up to perform a salute: “I have seen Empress Dowager”
Empress Xu smiled at Ling Jingshu without smiling, but was exceptionally kind to Wei Yan: “Doctor Wei doesn’t need to be polite, quickly get up”
When Wei Yan stood up straight, Empress Xu laughed again with an ulterior motive, “Dr Wei seems to be particularly surprised to see Ms Ling in the Pepper Room Hall”
Wei Yan calmed down in a few moments, and responded with a watertight voice: “The Empress Mother’s phoenix body is slightly ill, and has been recuperating on the couch for the past few days, and has even exempted the concubines’ invitations to pay their respects in the palace
Therefore, I did not expect that Empress Dowager would call Miss Ling for an audience today, and I was surprised to see that Miss Ling was also there”
Empress Xu’s eyes flickered as she smiled faintly, “This palace has been bored in its chambers the entire day and feels suffocated
Hearing that Miss Ling has entered the palace, I called her to come and talk”
After a pause, said idly, “Just now, I have nothing to do, this palace and Miss Ling will chat for a while
Miss Ling talked about a rare thing
She said that she suffered from a strange disease and could not touch any man
If it is touched by a man, the whole body will spasm and vomit
This palace heard really rare, how could there be such a strange disease in this world?”Dr Wei has excellent medical skills and extensive knowledge, this palace just came to ask you, have you ever heard of such a strange disease?”
Sure enough, the visitor was not kind!
Wei Yan resisted the urge to look at Ling Jingshu as a series of thoughts flashed through his mind
There was no way Ling Jingshu would bring up this matter for no reason
Judging by Empress Xu’s nature, in all likelihood, she had found a reason to deliberately make trouble
In order to protect herself, Ling Jingshu had to reveal her own hidden secrets to use as a shield
Empress Xu’s purpose in calling him here was by no means as simple as asking him casually
Empress Xu wanted him to confront Ling Jingshu face to face!
Thinking about this, Wei Yan was vaguely afraid
If he hadn’t thought about it carefully just now
If he hadn’t thought about it carefully and denied any knowledge of the matter, wouldn’t he have jeopardized Ling Jingshu?
Wei Yan’s mind flashed, and without showing any hesitation, he opened his mouth and answered, “Back to Empress Dowager, not only do I know about it, but I’ve also seen it with my own eyes”
Ling Jingshu’s tightly clenched fists slowly loosened, her back already covered in cold sweat
Empress Xu’s phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, a fine light flashing in her eyes, “Oh?
You really witnessed it with your own eyes?”
Wei Yan steadily opened his mouth and said, “Yes
More than a month ago
Princess Anya went to Princess Changping’s residence as a guest and accidentally fell into the water
I rushed to Princess Changping’s residence at that time and first diagnosed Princess Anya’s pulse
Later
And then for Ms Ling pulse diagnosis
Miss Ling was drowsy at the time, and when the microchen took her pulse, I didn’t expect her face to turn white, and then she vomited on the spot”The microchen sensed that something was wrong
Then I asked about the reason
Miss Ling refused to say at first, and only later did she spit out her condition
Such an illness is contained in the world
I have studied medicine for many years, but I have never heard of such a strange disease, and for a moment I did not know how to proceed with the treatment”Miss Ling also pleaded with Weichen to keep it a secret for her, so
Weichen has never mentioned this matter in front of anyone
I didn’t expect that Empress Dowager would ask about it today, so I didn’t dare to conceal it”
These words were exactly the same as what Ling Jingshu had said before
It seemed
Ling Jingshu had indeed not lied
Or
There was another possibility
Ling Jingshu and Wei Yan had a tacit understanding and had negotiated these sayings before
No matter who asked
No matter who asked, they would not reveal themselves
Empress Xu’s gaze wandered, skimming over Wei Yan’s calm and handsome face before landing on Ling Jingshu’s slightly pale and pretty face
There was a suffocatingly dull silence in the bedchamber
After a few moments, Empress Xu slowly opened her mouth to break the silence, “Listening to Imperial Doctor Wei, the strange disease that Miss Ling is suffering from is indeed true?”
A bitter smile spilled out from the corner of Ling Jingshu’s lips, “How could my daughter dare to lie about such a thing”
Wei Yan stepped forward and arched his hand, “Empress Mother, everything that the micro-minister said just now is the truth, there is no falsehood”
Empress Xu was a bit unhappy in her heart and said with a smile or not, “Imperial Doctor Wei is indeed a kind-hearted healer who is extraordinarily caring and considerate to the sick
Miss Ling is suffering from a strange disease, so Dr Wei should put more effort into curing her”
The hint of hidden acidity and cynicism in her tone of voice made Ling Jingshu diaphragmatic
Empress Xu is the mother of the world after a dynasty, daughter Changping Princess and Wei Yan general age
With Empress Xu’s age, do Wei Yan’s mother is more than enough, thanks to her face coveted Wei Yan
The so-called mother has her own daughter, Changping Princess of the loose, completely inherited from Empress Xu
Wei Yan in the palace for many years, to cope with the Empress Xu is not one or two times, as if not heard the Empress Xu’s words in general, faintly responded: “I have not seen such a disease, is really helpless and unable to do anything about it, I am afraid that it is to fail the Empress a piece of hard work”
Empress Xu pressed on, “No matter what, you have to give it a try
In this way, today just this palace also have free time, you in front of the face of this palace for Miss Ling diagnose a pulse it!”
As soon as these words came out, Wei Yan and Ling Jingshu’s faces all changed slightly
What a vicious Empress Xu!
After spending half a day’s worth of words, she still refuses to fully believe it
She had to see it with her own eyes before she was willing
This behavior was tantamount to insulting Ling Jingshu to her face!
Wei Yan could only feel the rage welling up in his chest
It was just that he had to watch out for Empress Xu on weekdays, but now he was involving Ling Jingshu
This was even more infuriating than humiliating him
She was still a teenage girl, the most beautiful and lovely age, like a bud on a branch waiting to bloom, in need of someone’s care and compassion
Checking her pulse in front of Empress Xu, there was only one result
How is this different from opening her scars?
No way!
He could never stand by and watch Ling Jingshu be humiliatedEmpress Dowager, please forgive the slightest rudeness “Thank you, Empress Dowager, for your kind words”
An unexpected voice interrupted Wei Yan: “Then please ask Imperial Doctor Wei to check my pulse once more”
Wei Yan’s heart was startled, and he looked at Ling Jingshu with a huff
Ling Jingshu also raised her eyes and looked over, “I am grateful for everything, Imperial Doctor Wei”
Since entering the Pepper Room Hall, this was the first time that the two had locked eyes
Those autumn water-like bright and beautiful eyes were still as calm and collected as usual
She seemed to know the anger in his heart, and there was a hint of pleading hidden in her gaze
Never be impulsive!
The extremely suspicious Empress Xu wanted to see for herself, so let her watch!
This is the only way to release her suspicions, but also to truly preserve the lives of the two
Wei Yan’s heart surged with an unspeakable sourness
He is really weak and useless, not only failed to protect her, but also let her fall into this embarrassing situation
