Chapter 323: Falling ill? Someone from Prince Ding's Mansion
On this day, Yao Qingnian was working on a treatment plan for Shen Jinghong in the courtyard when a servant came to report, "Miss, someone is looking for you outside the mansion, and he looks very anxious."
"Looking for me? Okay, I'll go out and take a look." She stopped the work in her hands and came to the gate of the mansion. She saw a luxurious carriage parked at the door of the Shangshu Mansion and a maid was pacing back and forth anxiously.
"You are?"
"This must be Miss Shen from the Shangshu Mansion, right? I'm from Prince Ding's Mansion, and I'm here on Prince Ding's orders to invite you over." When the old woman saw her, the anxious look on her face did not stop.
"Prince Ding's Mansion?" It seemed to be related to Princess Zi Ning from last time.
"To be honest, my princess is ill and the situation is urgent. I heard that Miss Shen saved my princess last time. Please come with me and save my princess!" The old woman bowed with a respectful attitude.
"Okay!" Human life was at stake, and she quite liked the character of Princess Zi Ning. Besides, the old woman's attitude in inviting people was very good. She didn't have anything to do anyway, so why not go and take a look? So she instructed Shan Wei: "Shan Wei, go to my mother's courtyard and tell her. I will go with them to Prince Ding's Mansion, so that she doesn't have to worry."
After getting on the luxurious carriage, it quickly headed towards Prince Ding's Mansion. After a while, they arrived at Princess Zi Ning's residence in Prince Ding's Mansion. She stood in the courtyard and looked into the house, and saw a lot of people standing inside, all with gloomy faces.
"Miss Shen, please wait here for a moment. Allow me to go in and report."
After the old woman finished speaking, she hurried in and said, "My Lord and Princess, Miss Shen has been invited over."
"Quick! Let her in." Prince Ding ordered in a deep voice.
When Yao Qingnian entered the room, she saw Princess Zi Ning lying on the bed. There was a doctor beside the bed, taking her pulse. Doctor Rong, who had visited her last time, was also standing beside her. When they saw her come in, they greeted each other with their eyes.
An hour ago...
"Imperial Physician, how is Ning'er?" Princess Ding wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, her face full of worry.
"The pulse was stable a few days ago, much better than before, but today, the pulse and heart rhythm are chaotic and unstable, and the breath is stagnant in the heart. I'm afraid I don't have much time left..." The doctor looked solemn.
Princess Ding staggered back and almost fell to the ground. The doctor meant that Ning'er was beyond saving. Woo woo...
"Princess, the last time the princess was critically ill, it was Miss Shen's eldest daughter who saved the princess and her condition improved. However, no one believed that she saved the princess and thought she did it by mistake. As a doctor, I believe in Miss Shen's method of saving people, so I secretly went to learn from her the method of saving the princess last time. The first two times the princess suddenly fell ill and her pulse and heartbeat were gone, I followed her method to save the princess.
But it didn't work this time, because Miss Shen said that this method can't always be used to save people. It can save lives in critical situations, but if the princess wants to stabilize her condition, other methods must be used. She said that she can't completely cure the princess, but there is no problem in prolonging her life. So, I dare to ask Prince Ding and Princess Ding to ask Miss Shen to come and try. "
Doctor Rong saw that the situation was critical, so he did not worry too much. He knelt down and explained the matter to Prince Ding, asking him to send someone to invite the person over. Perhaps there would be a glimmer of hope.
"No! No way! The doctor can't do anything! How can a wild girl like her who just came back from the countryside be better than the doctor?" Princess Ding's face changed. Last time, she heard from the maid and the girl from the Earl's Mansion how the country girl from the Shen Mansion treated Ning'er so rudely.
"Go and ask someone to come over! Madam, you are confused! What time is it now! As long as there is a glimmer of hope to save her, we must give it a try! No matter if she is from the countryside or not! Reputation and face are not as important as Ning'er's life!" Prince Ding's voice was full of majesty and undignified, and he gave the orders in an orderly manner.
The servant took the order and went to ask for help. When they arrived at the Shangshu Mansion, they were told that their young lady had gone out. Just when the old woman was anxious about whether to go out to look for her, Yao Qingnian happened to come back, and the scene at the beginning happened.
The girl who came in had a beautiful face. She had her hair tied up with a simple hairpin and was wearing a light blue long skirt with fluttering sleeves like a cloud. She had a white ribbon tied around her waist, which just outlined her slender waist. There were a few elegant flowers embroidered on the hem of her skirt, which was not ostentatious but had a unique charm. Her face was beautiful and her eyes were clear and bright, like a clear spring.
Prince Ding and everyone else had a higher opinion of the girl in front of them. There was no trace of a village woman in her at all.
Princess Ding, who was immersed in sorrow, was stunned by her appearance when she saw her come in. But thinking of what the young lady of the Earl's Mansion said, her face turned cold: "You are Miss Shen from the Shangshu Mansion, right? Go and see the princess quickly. If anything happens to the princess, I will not forgive you."
Yao Qingnian glanced at Princess Ding with cold eyes, full of disdain.
"How dare you! You are indeed a country boy, you don't know any manners at all. When you see the prince and princess, you don't bow and kneel, but look around! You are so uneducated! Kneel down now!" The nanny beside Princess Ding scolded.
"Prince Ding, Princess, is this how you treat guests? Are you asking me to come here to save people, or are you asking me to come here to listen to your people's lectures?"
"You!" Princess Ding didn't expect that she would dare to talk back, and her voice trembled with anger.
"What do you mean 'me'? Princess Ding showed me her power as soon as she arrived. I have to think carefully about whether to save this man or not. If I save him, it's fine if you don't thank me. But if I accidentally fail to save him and you accuse me of murdering the princess, I can't bear it." Yao Qingnian raised the corner of his mouth, looking calm and composed.
"She is truly uneducated. She actually speaks nonsense in our Prince Ding's Mansion and even dares to contradict my princess!" The nanny scolded angrily. This wild girl really doesn't take them seriously.
Yao Qingnian sneered and continued, "You guys in Dingwang Mansion are really interesting. You sent someone to invite me here and threatened me right away. Please make it clear. First, I am not a doctor. I have no obligation to treat the princess. Second, I am the daughter of the Shangshu Mansion. When did a servant get the chance to point fingers at me here? I have only one thing to say now. Will you save this man? If not, I will leave immediately. If you want to save him, shut up!"
Prince Ding looked at her deeply, with a hint of admiration in his eyes, and then he bowed: "The servants in the mansion spoke wildly and were disrespectful to Miss Shen. It is because we in Prince Ding's mansion did not discipline her strictly. I apologize to you here! Someone, come! Drag Nanny Li away and give her twenty lashes of the board!"
