The Doctress with Healing Hands: Your Highness, Please Behave Yourself

Chapter 31

A Conspiracy

When she heard the news, she was not sad, nor jealous, but desperate and helpless for the future life .

If Zhao Yuchen hadn’t suddenly appeared in her life, she thought that her life would not have so many beautiful memories .

With that in mind, she suddenly wondered how was he going on now .

It seemed that he was injured before she went into a coma .

She had no idea of his condition at all, not a clue whether he was died or alive .

At present, although Zhao Yuting and Zhao Yuchen were brothers, as far as she knew, the relationship between the them was not good .

When Zhao Yuchen married Su Ruoqing with great fanfare, snatching her from Zhao Yuting’s hands, the relationship between the two men was doomed to eventually fall into deep water and hot fire .

If she asked Zhao Yuting about Zhan Yuchen’s whereabouts at this point, she would not get the answer she wants, to make it worse, she would be spoon feeding him a chance to be on guard against her .

But if she did not ask, it would surely make Zhao Yuting have more doubts about her .

His Royal Highness, who had been granted a feudal land, suddenly returned to the capital at this time, so she had to keep an eye for herself . She could not push herself into a dangerous situation until she knew the real purpose of his return at this time .

So after thinking about it, Bai Qingqing deliberately showed an anxious look . “Excuse me, did you see my companion when you found me?”

He shook his head . “I only saw you alone . ” “Oh!”

Although the answer was as she expected, Bai Qingqing still had a sense of worry and disappointment, and did not know whether Zhao Yuchen had escaped from danger .

Seeing Zhao Yuting staring at her, she said, “Thank you for saving my life . Could I ask how should I call you?”

He smiled . “I’m the ninth in the family . Gunaing can call me Lord Ninth . ”

Without giving her his real name and identity, it seemed that Zhao Yuting did return to the capital city with a conspiracy .

But knowing that this was not Fengyang, but Red-crowned Crane Manor, 300 miles away from the capital, Bai Qingqing secretly had a sigh of relief .

But she had some respect to Zhao Yuting ostensibly and said: “These two days I have caused a lot of trouble to Lord Ninth, and if there is a chance in the future, I will surely make every effort to repay you . ”

Saying this, she removed the quilt to get up, but was stopped by him .

“Guniang, where are you going?”

Bai Qingqing said, “I haven’t returned home for two days, and my family must be worried . ”

What was between the lines was that she wanted to leave here and didn’t want to stay here any longer .

“But now you are still injured and not in your best to move around . Since I saved you, I will not watch you go into danger again . If you really want to go, I won’t keep you here until you’ve got recovered enough . ”

Although Zhao Yuting spoke politely and tactfully, he exerted a lot of pressure on Bai Qingqing .

Bai Qingqing understood that her persistent disobedience would do no help to her .

Even if she was anxious to know the situation of Zhao Yuchen and Ming Hao, she must not show the slightest in front of him .

Thinking of this, she got a plan .

“Since Lord Ninth was so considerate of me, I naturally feel grateful for your kindness . However, I was forced to stay out because of injury this time . My family will certainly be worried about my safety . I wonder if Lord Ninth will allow me to write a letter to my family?”

He smiled after hearing the words, “Of course!”

Then he ordered the maid outside the door to prepare writing brushes, ink sticks, paper and inkstones .

When a young girl sent her pen and ink, Bai Qingqing was a little at a loss, because her right hand was injured, let alone writing, she could not even pick up the brush .

What made her resentful most was that Zhao Yuting obviously knew that her right hand had been injured, but he was generous enough to let people send her pens and ink . Wasn’t it obvious that he was making a fool of her?

“Guniang, didn’t you say you want to write to your family to say that you were safe?”

Bai Qingqing rolled her eyes in her heart and forced a smile, “My right hand is hurt, I’m afraid I can’t lift my pen . ”

“If gunaing doesn’t mind, I can write this letter for you . ”

“Thank you very much then . ”

Saying this, Bai Qingqing handed the pen to him .

Zhao Yuting looked at the brush in front of him and frowned fiercely . “Gunaing, how do you know I’m left-handed?”

“Uh . . . ”

Only then did Bai Qingqing discover that the direction in which she handed over her pen was on Zhao Yuting’s left hand .

Su Ruoqing from the last life knew that he was good at writing with his left hand, but Bai Qingqing in this life was completely unfamiliar with him .

She suddenly handed the pen to his left hand . It was so obvious that she was telling him she knew his personal habits very well .

Thinking of this, a thin layer of cold sweat suddenly seeped on her back .

All should be blamed for was her carelessness for forgetting her identity at the moment .

Faced with his aggressive eyes, she quickly and wisely said, “I just accidentally saw Lord Ninth with a sword in the left hand and cocoons in the palm, so I guessed privately that you must be used to writing and practicing sword with your left hand in daily life, and so I fancied myself clever to hand the brush to your left hand . ”

Although this explanation was poor, it was not unreasonable .

Even though Zhao Yuting still had doubts about this in his mind, he accepted her answer superficially .

He smiled without any fuss and said with appreciation, “I didn’t expect that gunaing with such a young age, but your observation was quite impressive . I don’t know gunaing’s name and who will receive the letter?”

“My name is Bai Qingqing, and I am an invited aide of the first-ranked official, Qin Zizheng . He and my master are old acquaintances . I came to the capital this time to visit the Prime Minister Qin at the command of my master . ”

She deliberately mentioned Qin Zizheng instead of Zhao Yuchen, so that she would not cause excessive suspicion from him .

As long as Zhao Yuchen was alive and once she sent the letter to the Prime Minister Mansion, Qin Zizheng would surely try his best to tell him that she was still alive .

“Oh? Did you know Mr . Qin in the palace?”

“Yes, Prime Minister Qin is one of my elders . ” She answered vaguely .

“Now that you know Prime Minister Qin, I don’t think it’s necessary to write this letter, because in two days, I’m just going to visit Prime Minister Qin in the capital . Then we can take this trip together . ”

Speaking all these, he just didn’t want to write this letter for her .

Bai Qingqing saw that he had found such a good reason that she could not stretch more for the letter .

Anyway, as long as she waited for two days, she could return to the capital rightly and properly . She could also take advantage of this time to take good care of her injuries .

As for Zhao Yuting, she only needed to regard him as a transparent person and try not to provoke him .

When Bai Qingqing was trapped outside the city and could not escape, Zhao Yuchen, who had returned to the capital, sent people everywhere to look for her whereabouts .

The ambush of the assassins that night mauled Zhao Yuchen’s group heavily .

Three of the four guards who followed him secretly died and one of them got injured . Ming Hao had a sword wound when he was protecting his master from leaving . Even Zhao Yuchen himself was wounded by sharp arrows from assassins at his shoulder blades .

Fortunately, the smoke bomb released by Ming Hao at the critical moment brought the Imperial Army who defended nearby to rescue them, and finally Zhao Yuchen and others were lucky enough to save themselves .

Unfortunately, on his way back to the capital, he did not find Bai Qingqing’s whereabouts .

As if she had suddenly evaporated from the world, he never found any news about her even though he had sent people several times to search for her .

When Prime Minister Qin heard the news, he was the first to find Zhao Yuchen and ask about the details .

Knowing that Bai Qingqing was strangely missing in this incident, he secretly felt some bad omen in his heart, “To tell you the truth, Lord the Seventh, that day, you left Putuo Temple with Qingqing, and after that, Hui Jing pinched hands and tested the divination of you two . ”

“Oh? What did Master Huijing say?”

“Huijing only said four words, more vicious, less fortunate!”

These four words immediately threw Zhao Yuchen’s heart down in the dumps . Did it mean that he and Ruoqing would be separated again under god’s tease?

Thinking of this potential result, he just felt his heart was torn into tens of millions of pieces, which could never be made up again .

“Lord Seventh, don’t be anxious . In my opinion, Qingqing has a face showing good fortune, and she is smart and knows how to judge the hour and size up the situation . She is also a doctor with good medical skills .

Since she was not found at the scene of the accident, maybe someone saved her . If you wait a few more days, she may come back by herself . ”

Qin Zizheng’s words were not only consoling Zhao Yuchen, but also consoling himself .

In fact, he was also unsure, because after all, Bai Qingqing was only a vulnerable female . If she really met figures not to be trifled with on the way, the result was really more or less ominous .
