382 There Was No Difference Between Looking at a Ruffian and a Scoundrel
“How dare you?! Are you saying that the prince and the princess are ungrateful?” Bing’er was extremely furious. She raised her hand and slapped the little handmaiden’s face.
The little handmaiden was beaten until she cried. She fell to the ground and did not dare to have any thoughts of disobeying.
“Enough. If Gu Qingxue doesn’t come, I will go myself.” Prince Heng climbed up weakly. He smelled the stench coming from his body and his stomach was growling, he almost could not help but want to go to the toilet again.
Prince Heng held back the feeling that he was about to come out. After taking two deep breaths, he urged Imperial Physician Qin and Princess Liuying, “The two of you, get up. I want you to go with me…”
Princess Liuying had a huge reaction. She cried and resisted, “I’m not going. If you want me to beg Gu Qingxue, I’d rather die.”
Imperial physician Qin could not even stand properly. His legs were weak, he struggled to stand up, “Then the princess will only be left with a dead end. I can be sure that what we have is really cadaveric rash. This kind of illness has a slim chance of survival. Please consider it carefully, Princess.”
Princess Liuying was furious. She struggled to get up and had no choice but to leave the tent with the two of them.
The three of them were in a sorry state, attracting the gazes of many villagers along the way.
The villagers looked at the three of them, each in a sorry state. They were even worse than the beggars by the roadside, and they could not help but point and gossip.
A male villager looked at the three of them and spat from afar. “Don’t these three always think that Doctor Gu’s words are false? If that’s the case, why are they still looking for Doctor Gu?”
Another elderly woman sneered, “Hmph, what else could it be? It’s just that they’re afraid of death. What a joke. Even though they despise Doctor Gu, in the end, they still need the medicine that Doctor Gu developed to save their lives, right?”
“Who says so? They previously despised Doctor Gu in all sorts of ways, but today, they’re eatting their own words?” After a young man said this, he brought the other villagers present and laughed out loud.
Prince Heng listened to the villagers’ words. He immediately felt extremely ashamed and wished he could dig a hole and hide in it.
He was Prince Heng. When had he ever suffered such grievance?
However, Prince Heng had no other choice. He obediently walked to the courtyard house where Gu Qingxue lived. Before he entered, he was stopped by Ji Yan and the Secret Guards.
Ji Yan also wore a mask on his face, he calmly looked at Prince Heng and said, “The prince regent has ordered that no one is to interfere with Gu Qingxue’s medicine making. If Prince Heng has any needs, you can let me pa.s.s the message on your behalf.”
Prince Heng saw that Ji Yan had blocked the main door and immediately became even angrier.
He was really being bullied. He was a prince, yet he was rejected!
“Tell Gu Qingxue that I want to see her. Don’t forget, I am a prince, a relative of the royal family! She, Gu Qingxue, deliberately delayed my illness. If anything happens to me, she, Gu Qingxue, will be in big trouble!” Prince Heng squeezed out these words through his teeth, panting.
Ji Yan looked at Prince Heng, his gaze was no different from looking at a hooligan.
When Prince Heng was bullying Lady Gu, why did he not think of the consequences?
However, what Prince Heng said made some sense.
