Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

In the end, Xue Ru still boarded Xiao Junhao’s carriage, but upon seeing Lin Mengyao sitting inside, a look of displeasure filled her eyes.

“Is she the prince’s servant? Why does she seem so lacking in manners?”

Lin Mengyao’s attire had always been rather modest. Coupled with her sleepless night, she appeared rather haggard today.

Additionally, she did not wear any jewelry today. Upon seeing her, Xue Ru’s first impression was that of a servant.

Both Xiao Junhao and Lin Mengyao were unpleasant upon hearing this.

Had it not been for Xue Ru’s sincere expression, she might have suspected it was said on purpose.

“This is Yao Er, my side consort who hasn’t officially entered the household yet.”

“Side consort? Isn’t that just another word for a concubine?”

Xiao Junhao was speechless.

Lin Mengyao was speechless as well.

Technically, side consort was indeed a concubine. But who would dare look down upon a royal concubine?

After a while, Xiao Junhao inquired, “May I ask about Miss Xue’s relationship with the General’s Mansion?”

“My aunt is the main wife of the General’s Mansion.”

“So, Miss Xue is the cousin of Miss Jiang?”

“Does the prince know my cousin, Huan Er?”

Upon hearing Xue Ru’s question, Xiao Junhao nodded.

At that moment, a voice from outside announced, “Prince, we’ve reached the shop.” 142.93.60.102

Subsequently, Xiao Junhao led Xue Ru into the shop. Even though he promised to compensate with just a dress.

He ended up buying several dresses and pieces of jewelry for Xue Ru.

Xiao Junhao personally escorted Xue Ru back to the General’s Mansion.

Watching Xue Ru’s gleeful departure, the smile and the joyful sign of Xiao Junhao’s eyes vanished instantly.

This woman was not only arrogant but also naive.

Just as Jiang Peihuan was about to speak, a flurry of hoofbeats sounded nearby.

Turning her head, she saw Zhao Yong dismounting from his horse.

Apart from the time she diagnosed Zhao Yong’s biological mother, Jiang Peihuan hadn’t seen him again. Meeting Zhao Yong now, she noticed he was covered in injuries, his face pale, yet his expression remained steadfast.

“I greet King Cheng.”

He bowed to Xiao Nanye, then turned his attention to Jiang Peihuan, “Miss

Jiang, the two herbs you told me about, 1 have found them.”

“You found the Nine Spirit Fox and the Black Snake?”

“Yes.”

A hint of surprise appeared in Jiang Peihuan’s eyes.

“Miss Jiang, you said that if I gathered the herbs, you’d treat my mother. Does that still stand?”

“Of course it does. I’ll come with you right now.”

“Thank you!”

Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, a hint of a smile appeared on Zhao Yong’s composed face.

Moments later, Jiang Peihuan and Xiao Nanye got into a carriage.

It was the same small courtyard. When Jiang Peihuan saw Madam Zhao again, she noticed her complexion had worsened.

After taking Madam Zhao’s pulse, Jiang Peihuan said to Zhao Yong, “Show me the herbs.”

In the living room, Zhao Yong handed two porcelain bottles to Jiang Peihuan.

Upon opening the white porcelain bottle, Jiang Peihuan detected a faint, mysterious aroma. “Yes, this is the blood of the Nine Spirit Fox.”

Opening the other bottle, Jiang Peihuan took a sniff. It was indeed the gallbladder of the Black Snake.

After setting the two bottles down, Jiang Peihuan looked at Zhao Yong, “Prince Zhao, do you remember the third ingredient I mentioned?”

“Of course, Miss Jiang. You said the third ingredient is half of my liver.”

Hearing Zhao Yong’s words, Jiang Peihuan nodded.

“To extract half of your liver, I need to cut open your abdomen and then slice off a portion of your liver. Are you still willing?”

“Just go ahead, Miss Jiang.”

“I’ll bear all the consequences. If Miss Jiang is worried about complications from treating my mother, I can provide a written guarantee right now..”
