HCB Chapter 148 Madam, please try this.
Chapter 148 Madam, please try this.
Physician Lin greeted the Crown Prince's wife with a respectful voice.
"Chen Xiuming..." A cold glint flashed in Qin Jiuwei's eyes, "How is he?"
"Reporting to the Crown Prince's wife, Young Master Chen is now showing symptoms."
Physician Lin continued gently, "When I was examining him just now, I found several reddish lumps on his right arm, which are symptoms of venereal disease."
Qin Jiu pursed her lips.
Just as she had guessed, Chen Xiuming had contracted syphilis long ago.
In his previous life, he married Yunzhu, then fathered a child with her, ultimately causing her death.
"If left untreated, how long will it take for these lumps to spread all over the body?"
After pondering for a moment, Physician Lin said, "It will take at most half a month, and at least a few days. Everyone's situation is different, so it cannot be generalized, but it will be very quick."
"Understood." Qin Jiuwei then coldly ordered, "Pretend you know nothing about this. Do not prescribe any medicine for Chen Xiuming to treat his venereal disease. Let him fend for himself."
"Now that you are treating Chen Xiuming, Madam Chen will not seek another doctor."
Physician Lin was taken aback, "But..."
"Don't worry," Qin Jiuwei interrupted him. "Even if Chen Xiuming dies from his illness, it's because he was too sick. What does it have to do with you?"
She raised an eyebrow coldly, "Who would doubt the medical skills of the imperial physicians?"
Qin Jiuwei, with a gentle and refined face, spoke incredibly heartless words.
Physician Lin was so frightened that his heart trembled.
The Crown Prince's wife looks exactly like a queen consort who has been immersed in palace intrigue for many years.
There's a feeling that if you don't listen to her, she'll fight you to death...
Physician Lin was so frightened that he lowered his head even further.
He immediately replied respectfully, "Yes, Your Majesty, I know what to do."
Qin Jiuwei received a satisfactory answer and immediately smiled.
He gently instructed, "Xiao He, go and give the things to Physician Lin."
"Yes." Xiaohe stepped forward and handed over a heavy wooden box.
Physician Lin took it and opened it, finding it filled with glittering gold.
She looked up and met Qin Jiuwei's extremely gentle smile.
Physician Lin: Uh... I'm even more scared.
"Thank you for the reward, Your Highness's wife." Imperial Physician Lin said respectfully, "Your humble servant will certainly handle this matter well."
Qin Jiuwei nodded, feeling a surge of emotion.
This scene is so familiar.
It felt like I had returned to my previous life, when I was in the palace plotting against others and becoming a poisonous woman with Imperial Physician Lin.
Immediately afterwards, Qin Jiuwei's gaze fell on the Chen residence not far away.
A cold glint immediately filled his eyes.
Chen Xiuming is a man who has been unethical and has contracted a disease.
He even brought trouble to his wife when he got home; he deserves to die.
In his previous life, Chen Xiuming died long after Yunzhu passed away.
It's really too late...
In this life, she will make him suffer a thousand times, a hundred times, more punishment.
Qinglan Courtyard.
After returning from dealing with her business, Qin Jiuwei's lower abdomen started hurting again.
But perhaps it was because Xie Yanli warmed him up with his internal energy last night.
This abdominal pain was significantly better than the abdominal pain I experienced during my previous periods.
Qin Jiu leaned back on the soft couch, and after drinking a few sips of hot tea, she felt much better and didn't even need a hot water bottle anymore.
In the incense burner inside the room, jasmine and bodhi seeds burned quietly.
Qin Jiuwei held half a scroll in her hand, slowly reading it.
It's so comfortable and pleasant.
Main courtyard.
"It's truly a rare treat to have everyone gathered here tonight. Yanli, you've been so busy lately, it must be exhausting. Please eat more," said Madam Hou.
Xie Yanli has been busy with official duties recently and has not come to the main courtyard most evenings.
So neither Madam Xie nor Lord Xie bothered him.
We didn't get together for dinner until tonight.
Xie Yanli didn't raise his eyebrows, and simply hummed in agreement.
Recently, the affairs of the King of Qi have encountered many twists and turns.
I am indeed quite busy, but not so busy that I don't have time to have dinner at the main hospital.
He only recently discovered this.
He preferred having dinner with Jiuwei and the children rather than at the main courtyard.
Therefore, they often make excuses for not being able to come, saying that they are too busy.
But today is the fifteenth, and the family always wants to get together, so we brought the children over.
"Madam, please try this."
Xie Yanli naturally served Qin Jiuwei a bowl of red date and chicken porridge and placed it in front of her.
As soon as he finished speaking, the people at the table couldn't help but look up.
Even Lord Xie, who usually paid no attention to family matters, showed surprise.
It hasn't been that long since we ate together.
Why did Xie Yanli and Qin Jiuwei suddenly become so close?
Xie Yanli used to always call her by her first name, but now he's actually calling her "Madam"!
The tone and expression clearly showed that they called each other that in private.
Furthermore, he had just personally served Qin Jiuwei a bowl of soup.
They never even dared to imagine such a thing before!
If I saw it with my own eyes, I would think I was dreaming...
Qiu Yueli stared at the bowl of soup in front of Qin Jiuwei, biting her lip with a bitter feeling in her heart.
She now understands that there is no longer any possibility between her and Prince Xie.
During this time, her aunt also looked for other families for her.
However, those people, whether in terms of family background, appearance, or talent, were far inferior to Xie Yanli.
She wouldn't want to marry someone like that.
But what can she do now?
Qiu Yueli lowered her eyelashes and poked at the rice porridge in the bowl with her chopsticks.
Seeing how good the relationship between Xie Yanli and Qin Jiuwei is now, Madam Xie was very pleased.
He smiled with great satisfaction.
Jiuwei is an excellent child.
Now that the two of them can understand each other and get along harmoniously, she is at ease.
Lady Hou noticed that everyone at the table was paying attention to Qin Jiuwei and Xie Yanli.
He put down his chopsticks with great dissatisfaction.
After turning his head, he suddenly said, "I have some good news to tell everyone."
Sensing that everyone's attention was on her, Lady Hou proudly raised her chin.
"The good news is..." Lady Hou's voice suddenly rose, her tone full of joy, "...Chongzhi will be back in a few days!"
"Really?" Madam Xie asked in surprise and delight, putting down her chopsticks as she spoke.
"Of course it's true." Lady Hou's eyes were smiling. "The letter was delivered yesterday. Chongzhi is returning to the capital to report on his duties and will be staying in the capital for quite some time."
"Who knows? Maybe he won't leave again this time."
Madam Xie was quite excited, "That's wonderful, that's really wonderful."
At her age, what she wants most is to have a house full of children and grandchildren, so that her children can be around her and enjoy the happiness of family life.
Although Chongzhi is not as promising as Yanli, he is still her own grandson.
She still loves him very much.
Upon hearing this, Lord Xie couldn't help but sigh softly.
"He has suffered a lot in the military these past few years. Let him rest well in Beijing this time."
Lady Hou felt Lord Xie's concern and care, and a smile immediately appeared on her face.
