Su Lingyue looked at the lively and lovely woman in front of her, her eyes full of amazement.

The medicine that disturbs the pulse was prescribed by Uncle Lu, and ordinary doctors cannot detect it at all.

And this woman, who looked younger than her, could actually take her pulse easily.

That day on the street, at the critical moment, she used invisible medicine to knock the Japanese envoy unconscious.

The situation was urgent that day and Su Lingyue ignored this point.

I have to find an opportunity to confirm her medical skills again. If she is indeed superb, I will ask her to take Xiao Yu's pulse.

In sharp contrast to her pale face, Su Lingyue looked at Ling Ling with clear and bright eyes and asked, "Miss Ling Ling, how did my cousin know that I was sick?"

Ling Ling blinked his eyes, looked at Su Lingyue and said, "Now that you are sick, there are posters all over the streets of Beijing. He saw it while patrolling and asked me to take a look! Yan'er is also worried about you, so I came here!"

Su Lingyue said: "I'm fine, I was just involved in the assassination case in the inn, so I pretended to be sick and hid away."

Ling Ling suddenly stretched out her index finger and wiped it across Su Lingyue's face.

Su Lingyue was so surprised that before she could react, Ling Ling looked at the powder on her hand and sighed, "It's just powder. She looks too much like a patient!"

"Of course she does, I was the one who put the makeup on her!" Caidie on the side raised her head proudly.

Su Lingyue looked at her bright smile, which looked like a peacock spreading its tail, and agreed with a smile: "Yes, my butterfly makeup artist is the best!"

Caiyi smiled coquettishly and said, "Miss, please stop praising her. If you keep praising her like this, she will become arrogant and lose her mind!"

Caiyi pouted and muttered in retort: ​​"I don't need to drive the carriage. It's Lai Fu's job to tell east, west, north and south!"

Su Lingyue couldn't help but chuckle when she heard this. She thought that her little maid was so adorable that she had to keep her by her side forever.

After confirming that Su Lingyue was fine, Ling Ling said, "Since you are fine, I will go back and tell Jiang Siqi and Yan'er. They will definitely be very happy to hear that."

Su Lingyue heard this and asked hurriedly, "Ms. Lingling, will you be living in Jiang Mansion recently?"

Ling Ling nodded and said, "Yan'er, Jiang Siqi, and I have similar interests and had a lot of fun. They didn't chase me away, so I want to stay for a while before leaving!"

Su Lingyue raised her lips and said happily, "Great! I know a little bit about medicine. If this matter can be solved satisfactorily, I wonder if I can invite you to come and discuss it with us?"

When Ling Ling heard that Su Lingyue had challenged her, her round eyes widened even wider. She asked in surprise, "You actually know medicine! I thought that young ladies from noble families only knew how to play the piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting!"

Su Lingyue chuckled and explained, "There happens to be a great doctor in our mansion. I once studied with him and benefited a lot."

Ling Ling was generous by nature, and responded without hesitation: "No problem, tell me when you are free, and I will definitely come to visit the miracle doctor!"

"Okay! After this matter is settled, I will send someone to pick you up!" Su Lingyue replied happily.

After Ling Ling left, Su Lingyue lay down bored again. Unconsciously, she thought of Xiao Yu again.

I wonder what's going on with Xiao Yu now? Have the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple come? If they come, how will Xiao Yu respond?

"Cai Die, go and find out where the prince is and what he is doing now? Also, go and find out if the government officials have been here?"

"Miss, would you like to invite the prince to come over?"

"No need. When the prince is done with his work, he will come back to accompany me. You just need to ask, don't disturb him."

"Yes, Miss!" Caidie responded and left the bedroom.

Su Lingyue calculated that the next doctor should be here soon, so she put the handkerchief on her hand and signaled Caiyi to close the gauze curtain.

At this moment, Xia He's slightly hurried voice rang out from outside the house, "Princess, the Queen Mother in the palace sent Eunuch He to visit you, and brought rewards and Doctor Zhang from the palace."

Su Lingyue's heart tightened. Had the news of her illness spread to the palace so quickly?

"Empress?!" Hearing that it was the queen, Li Jing seemed very unhappy, "I don't know what's on your mind!"

Caiyi explained to Li Jing in a gentle voice, "Miss Aqing, you don't know that although His Majesty is cruel, the Queen is very kind to you! She probably sent someone here because she is really worried about you."

Is her aunt really worried about her?

Or... did my aunt and father conspire to plan this matter, and sent Doctor Zhang here to test the situation?

She felt a little uneasy.

Once Doctor Zhang finds out that she is pretending to be sick by taking medicine, will he tell the emperor and his aunt and have the people from the Dali Temple arrest her and use her to threaten Xiao Yu?

Su Lingyue pressed her violently beating heart and thought of a solution quickly in her mind.

Due to Xiao Yu's identity, no matter who comes, they will give Xiao Yu some face.

Bring the person to see Xiao Yu first and let him give him a warning. It would be best if he could persuade him to quit directly.

Su Lingyue felt a little calmer after believing this. "Just say I'm sick and can't see anyone. Take me to see the prince first!"

Xia He said, "The servant said that the prince had ordered him to be brought in directly. He is already waiting in the small hall."

Bring it in directly?

Doesn't Xiao Yu need to give some explanation or give some warning?

Never mind. He must have his reasons for giving such an order.

Su Lingyue slowed down her tone and said, "Then bring it in!"

Then he explained to Caiyi, "Caiyi, the purpose of the imperial physician coming here to check my pulse is unknown. If he asks about my illness later, just do as I said before."

"Yes, miss." Caiyi replied.

In a moment, there was a knock on the door, "Princess, Eunuch He, Doctor Zhang is here."

Caiyi hurried to open the door. Su Lingyue was lying there, clutching the quilt tightly with her hands, still feeling a little worried.

"Greetings to Eunuch He and Imperial Physician Zhang!" Caiyi opened the door and bowed.

"No need to be so polite!" Eunuch He said in a hoarse voice.

As the footsteps gradually approached, Eunuch He asked softly, "How is the princess?"

Caiyi said: "The young lady was too frightened and is still in a coma."

"Don't worry. Her Majesty heard that the princess was ill, so she asked us to bring Doctor Zhang to see the princess."

Eunuch He turned around and said respectfully to Doctor Zhang, "Doctor Zhang, please take a good look at the princess."

Doctor Zhang bowed and said, "Don't worry, eunuch. I will do my best to treat the princess."

After saying that, he put down the medicine box, sat down on the stool beside the bed, and began to take Su Lingyue's pulse.

Doctor Zhang placed his hand on the wrist through the handkerchief and his brows gradually furrowed.

Seeing his expression, Eunuch He frowned and asked, "Doctor Zhang, how is the princess?"
