Chang An smiled, bright and beautiful like a summer flower, seducing people's hearts. However, contrary to her bright smile, her indifferent tone was: "Worry?"
Qi Muyuan nodded. He looked at Chang 'an seriously. He did not know if he was seeing things, but he felt that there was a painful struggle and indifference in her eyes that he did not understand. If he only looked at his eyes, he even felt that this Lin Changan in front of him had changed into another person.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince…don't you know that there is no basis for such things? Wasn't such a cheap thing available to everyone at any time?”Chang 'an's smile disappeared, and his tone revealed a hint of sarcasm.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chang An gestured for Qiao Hui to help him change his position. It was too painful to lean against the bed for a long time. Even if the mattress below could not be any higher, the wound on his butt would still hurt as long as it was touched.
Qi Muyuan did not know why Chang 'an was suddenly hostile to him, but he could clearly feel it. When he saw Chang 'an in unbearable pain, he remembered that he had brought Imperial Physician Cao with him. He looked at the most outstanding Imperial Physician in the Imperial Academy of Medicine. Imperial Physician Cao was still standing obediently at the side. His presence…was almost non-existent. It was no wonder that no one remembered him.
He raised his hand and then lowered it again. He thought for a long time, but he still could not find a reason to touch it. Qi Muyuan opened his mouth and did not realize that his tone was already starting to sound a little flustered and exasperated." Imperial Physician Cao, come over!”
"Yes, sir! Your Highness."
When he heard the Crown Prince call out to him, he immediately came forward. It was as if he had been standing at the side all this time, waiting for the Crown Prince to call out to him.
Qi Muyuan stood up and walked to the side. Imperial Physician Cao walked forward. Qiao Hui immediately brought a silk handkerchief and asked Imperial Physician Cao to treat Chang 'an.
Chang 'an obediently stretched out her wrist. She really did not want to say anything more to Qi Muyuan. She did not need to lift her head to see Imperial Physician Cao's gray and white beard. She thought to herself, Sometimes, she always felt that if a man's beard was too long, it would be very... dirty.
After a while, Imperial Physician Cao finally spoke,""From the pulse, it seems that there is no serious problem. Perhaps it is because Young Lady's body is delicate and she is already injured. She has been infected with a cold, so she often feels a little dizzy.”
Qiaohui had already prepared a pen and paper and was waiting for Imperial Physician Cao to write down the prescription for Chang 'an.
The Prime Minister's wife was greatly comforted by Imperial Physician Cao's words. She felt very happy for a moment. As long as her daughter was fine, everything would be fine. In fact, with her love for her daughter, if something really happened in Chang 'an, her body would not be able to hold on for long.
Therefore, the Prime Minister's wife couldn't help but say excitedly,"" It's good that you're alright…Thank you for visiting my daughter today, Your Highness. You even brought the best imperial physician in the palace, Imperial Physician Cao, to Chang 'an…It's really…"
Chang 'an looked at her mother's relieved expression and finally understood why her attitude towards Qi Muyuan had changed so much. It was because he had brought Imperial Physician Cao to work hard for her!
Chang 'an was originally annoyed and even rejected her, but now... her eyes instantly turned red. In this world, she, Lin Chang' an, had lived two lives. Other than her mother, no one else would treat her so well.
At this moment, Chang 'an truly felt that the longer he lived, the more he had to remember that there were some people who needed to be cherished.
" Mother, why are you…" Why are you so worried about your daughter?
The Prime Minister's wife did not know what Chang 'an was talking about. She just looked at Chang' an, afraid that she was still uncomfortable." Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere else?"”
"I'm fine. I didn't feel uncomfortable. I just called out to Mother.”At this moment, Chang 'an held back the tears that were about to burst out of her eyes in the next moment, and the corners of her mouth curled into an innocent smile.
The Prime Minister's wife saw that Chang 'an seemed to be in a good mood and looked much better than last night. She pretended to be angry and said,""You child!" Then, he said,"It's good that you're fine…"
Holding back her tears, Chang 'an just smiled.
Qi Muyuan saw that Chang 'an was fine. At this time, it was indeed not the time to talk, so he did not stay any longer. After all, the Emperor still left a lot of official business for him to handle.
He said goodbye." Since Chang 'an is fine, I can rest assured. There are still many things to deal with in the royal study…" Some doubts still needed to be slowly resolved.
The Prime Minister's wife nodded." Originally, I wanted to ask the Crown Prince to stay for lunch, but since the Crown Prince said that he still has things to do, it's not convenient to ask him to stay-"
Both of them knew that the nobles in the upper class were mostly like this. Some words were only spoken out of courtesy, so why would Qi Muyuan really stay? Putting aside his identity as the Crown Prince, this was the Prime Minister's residence. He was accused of roping in officials and forming cliques for personal gain. For the sake of his future power and status, how could he not avoid it?
Qi Muyuan was about to go back, so Imperial Physician Cao naturally left for the Imperial Academy of Medicine as well. His mother went to send them off, leaving Chang 'an, Qiao Hui, and the two little girls in the room. Qiao Hui handed the prescription to the little girl and asked her to go to the doctor to get the medicine according to the prescription.
He turned around and said to Chang 'an with a smile,""His Highness the Crown Prince really cares about Miss! He even specially brought the best doctor in the Imperial Academy of Medicine to treat Young Lady!”
Chang An glanced at Qiao Hui indifferently. She felt that this girl's straightforward personality was sometimes good and sometimes bad. She pouted her lips to show her disapproval."It's better not to speak nonsense. If these words spread out, I don't know what will happen. Moreover, how do we know that the Crown Prince is only talking about people and not things?”
Qiao Hui looked at Chang 'an in confusion. She really didn't understand the phrase' who knows if it's for people and not for things.'
What does it mean to people?
What did he mean by that?
Just as she was about to open her mouth to ask the young miss, the madam came in again. Qiao Hui could only swallow her confusion and retreat to the side to wait.
The Prime Minister's wife didn't say anything as soon as she came in. She glanced at Qiao Hui but didn't say anything. Her heart was clear. She felt that this girl was indeed perceptive. She had seen every move just now...
Then, he looked at Chang 'an, who also looked at his mother. For a moment, they looked at each other, leaving the room silent.
Chang 'an just looked at her mother silently. There were thousands of words that she could not express.
Chang 'an thought that if her mother didn't speak, she would. But in the end, her mother spoke first,""Your father was sent into the palace by the emperor early this morning, so he didn't come to see you. You…"
She didn't know what to say, but Chang 'an understood what her mother wanted to say. Her father didn't come to see her because he had entered the palace.
Chang 'an nodded, not showing any disappointment or loneliness." Mother, you don't have to explain. I'm not as... ignorant as you think.”
Chang 'an had a hard time saying the word' insensibility'. She had lived for so long, and so far, she had indeed been an insensible child. However, in the past, she would take pleasure in this and would never admit it.
However, from now on, they could not be mentioned in the same breath.
Seeing Chang 'an's reaction, the Prime Minister's wife was at a loss. She did not expect her daughter to say such a thing. It was completely unexpected, so she did not know how to answer.
Chang 'an lowered her head, raised her arm, and wiped away the tears that she could not help but shed with her sleeve. Then, she raised her head and forced a smile. She choked and said,""In the past, it was my daughter who was too insensible and made my mother work hard! I won't do it again in the future!"
It won't happen again in the future!
This was an oath Chang 'an had made to his closest family and to his heart. She wanted to become stronger and make those who bullied her pay with blood!
"Mother, can you come over and sit?"
Chang An smiled when she saw her mother sitting on the bed. Her mother's gentle eyes fell on her face. She raised her hand and gently stroked her fair face."My daughter has grown up…"
Chang 'an burst out laughing when he heard this. He only said,""If you don't grow up, Mother will be old.”Chang An caught a few strands of silver hair on his mother's sideburns and felt a sour feeling in his heart.
"Mother, can you hug Chang 'an?”
The warmth in his mother's arms was irreplaceable. Only then did she feel that hugging was indeed a feeling that she had not felt for a long time.
After experiencing too much pain that no one knew about, the long-term oppression made Chang 'an suddenly become very fragile at this moment. She just wanted a hug. Qiao Hui's eyes widened in disbelief. She didn't know what was going on. When did Miss become so obedient?
In the past, the Young Miss would not have talked to the Madam so calmly for such a long time, right? He would only find Madam annoying.
"Chang 'an, you really don't have to do this. Your father has been in a high position for a long time, so he doesn't consider emotional factors in many things... In fact, he loves you in his heart, but he's not good at expressing it.”
" I just feel guilty. I'm not dissatisfied with Father's actions…"
"Furen, Master is back. Furen, please go over now!”A discordant voice broke the rare tranquility.
It was as if a beautiful dream was finally awakened by a sudden voice. All the nostalgia and reluctance were shattered at this moment. All the fragile emotions needed to be abandoned at this moment because they had to return to reality.
However, Lin Chang 'an's reality did not tolerate the slightest bit of weakness!
Chang 'an got up from her mother's arms." Mother, since Father is looking for you, Mother, hurry up and go over. Don't make Father wait anxiously." I will take good care of myself."
"Alright then, take care of your rest. When the medicine is ready, drink it while it's hot, understand?”
Chang 'an smiled and nodded, urging his mother to hurry over so that his father would not wait.
*——*——*
"Master, what is it that makes you so anxious?”
The Prime Minister was indeed extremely anxious. He pulled his wife's hand and walked inside. In his opinion, this matter was of great importance. If it was not done well, it would not only affect the safety of his own life, but also the prosperity of the entire Qi Kingdom. This was really not something that could be neglected.
