Chapter 379.3: Suffering the Consequences
Even if some people think that she’s feeling guilty, she still won’t hesitate.
Just as expected, not long after the people of Kang Qinw.a.n.g Manor invited the imperial physician, the palace just learned of this matter.
Le Cheng Emperor and the Empress were furious, immediately sending their trusted aide out, heading to Kang Qinw.a.n.g Manor to inquire the specific situation.
Everyone arrived one after another. Kang Qinw.a.n.g heir’s courtyard filled with people, but only Kang Qinw.a.n.g alone was not seen. This made one can’t help but feel disbelief.
After inquiring the cause of Yu’er’s injury, without a doubt, the matter of Jing Wan ‘causing havoc’ in Kang Qinw.a.n.g Manor also became known. However, because the one recounting this matter was Kang Qinw.a.n.g side consort’s person, they didn’t deliberately distort the truth, nor did they utilize ‘the art of speech’, merely just having the cause and effect explained clearly.
If one really were to look into this matter, Jing Wan really didn’t have any blame. After all, the little heir got hit because of helping his maternal aunt.
The people from the palace naturally didn’t dare to make a comment, just inquiring Kang Qinw.a.n.g’s current whereabouts.
Kang Qinw.a.n.g’s side consort coldly sneered, “Probably consoling his beloved concubine that got startled.”
And precisely at this time, a servant girl entered. Seeing this many people present, for a moment, she was somewhat timid.
“What took you so long, where’s w.a.n.gye?” Kang Qinw.a.n.g’s side consort coldly asked.
The servant girl stuttered, even carrying a sense of shame, having a hard time speaking. However, seeing her own master’s cold expression, she finally tremblingly opened her mouth, “This servant, this servant didn’t get to meet w.a.n.gye. Concubine Rao’s servant girl blocked this servant, not letting this servant go in, even saying that w.a.n.gye is handling important matters inside, so has no spare energy to meet with this servant. This servant said that the little heir’s situation isn’t too good, but that servant girl just mocked this servant, saying for better or worse one’s master is the side consort, using the little heir as a tool to gain favor, too……..too shameless.”
The people present weren’t just people from the palace, there was also a group of imperial physicians. Upon hearing this, they all wished that they were deaf and didn’t hear anything at all, but in reality, they heard everything. Thus, they lowered their eyes and lowered their heads, just in their hearts…………This Kang Qinw.a.n.g, as expected, was beyond saving, completely unable to be put in a powerful position, this kind of person, this kind of person……………….
Have to say, when some people start to court death, one can’t even block them. Just based on Kang Qinw.a.n.g’s current conduct, even if someone wants to lighten his fault, all would appear powerless. After all, to want to go against one’s heart and say a few good words for him, such way of doing things, no matter how thick one’s face was, afraid, all unable to say a word.
Kang Qinw.a.n.g’s side consort however had an ‘as expected’ expression, “For Yu’er’s current situation, asking everyone to please put forward a plan.” If one were to carefully listen, one would discover that her voice was actually somewhat hoa.r.s.e. She was doing her best to remain calm, and the strangle marks on her throat grew increasingly obvious.
“Your Highness, this lower official can only do one’s best, but the final outcome……….”
Kang Qinw.a.n.g’s side consort firmly griped her handkerchief. The unspoken words couldn’t be more obvious, “Asking everyone to please do one’s best.”
“Naturally so.”
The people from the palace needed to return to report, inviting the chief physician along with. The eldest di imperial grandson’s situation still needed for him to personally report to his Majesty.
“Master, outside the manor, Jin Qinw.a.n.g’s personal attendant brought over a man, saying that he’s the manor doctor brought back from Jiangnan. According to them, Jin Qinw.a.n.g had personally praised his medical skills. Jin w.a.n.gfei had learned that the little heir had gotten injured, but didn’t know the specifics, saying that it’s not good to visit right now and add to the trouble, so sent the manor doctor over for a look. One of the reasons is wanting to learn about the situation, and two, it’s wanting to see whether or not they can give their humble effort.”
Regardless of whether the people present believed that Jin w.a.n.gfei was letting someone come dig for information, or genuinely worried about the little heir, Kang Qinw.a.n.g’s side consort, without saying another word, just let someone have them invited in.
As such, the people that were about to leave all temporarily stayed behind. Someone that was able to be praised by Jin Qinw.a.n.g, presumably, had some skills.
Just, when they saw the person, they couldn’t help but doubt. After all, he appeared to be a bit too young.
Gong Jiu was completely unconcerned. After greeting Kang Qinw.a.n.g’s side consort, and receiving permission, he began carefully examining the little heir, in the end, coming to a conclusion, “Able to be treated, can recover completely.” Superfluous words, not a single one was said. Compared with the imperial physicians that would have minor illness exaggerated, and have major illness said in the direction of an incurable disease, he was much more straightforward.
“Are these words true?” Kang Qinw.a.n.g’s side consort whose complexion hadn’t been well this whole time immediately stood up, finally revealing a bit of delight, yet was also a bit worried, fearing that she’d heard wrong.
“This young man’s confidence is quite big.” The imperial physicians were annoyed. The result of their diagnosis was that to not completely go deaf was already the best outcome, yet this youngster dared to be this arrogant.
Gong Jiu simply didn’t pay them any attention, just cupping his hands at Kang Qinw.a.n.g’s side consort, “This matter concerns the little heir, this humble one does not dare to lie.”
The imperial physicians all shut their mouths. Indeed, this kind of matter, no one dared to recklessly make bold claims.
“As such, one will have to trouble doctor. Whatever medicinal ingredients you need, just freely ask for. Even if the manor doesn’t have it, the palace certainly will.”
“When w.a.n.gfei sent this humble one over, there was already this intention within. Since one is able to do something, then this one will certainly spare no effort.”
Gong Jiu prescribe the medicine, then began carrying out the acupuncture………..
While he was applying the acupuncture needles, the other imperial physicians picked up the prescription to look over. Speaking of which, for people like them, their medical skills all weren’t lacking. At a glance, this seemingly really could work. Then, looking to Gong Jiu again, their expression changed somewhat. Have to say, they weren’t really the type to be jealous of a capable individual, although getting compared down by a younger generation was indeed a bit embarra.s.sing, but right now wasn’t the time to be bothered about this. They successively went to go watch Gong Jiu perform acupuncture, having the suspicion of secretly learning, but seeing Gong Jiu ignore them, they also just stood there.
Seeing the imperial physicians’ att.i.tude, Kang Qinw.a.n.g’s side consort also felt increasingly rea.s.sured inside, hurriedly ordering someone to go prepare the prescription.
Speaking of the imperial physicians, the more they watched, the more shocked they were. This youngster really was extraordinarily daring in applying the needles. If it was them, even if knowing it can be treated as such, afraid they still wouldn’t dare to set about it. Should say that as expected, they’ve gotten old? Sure enough, after staying in the Imperial Physician’s Court for so long, all things needed to be carefully considered.
The ones that needed to return to the palace still returned, just for the time being, they didn’t bring along the chief physician. As for what to say after returning, facing their own master, they naturally will just say it as it is, not daring to be partial, and further didn’t dare to add fuel or exclude something.
Eunuch Mu also strolled around, and afterwards, returned to Jin Qinw.a.n.g Manor.
Jing Wan had been waiting for news the whole time. Upon learning that Kang Qinw.a.n.g’s little heir can recover completely, she greatly relaxed a breath. As for Kang Qinw.a.n.g’s conduct, she really didn’t know what to say.
“Looks like even the heaven is all standing on Wan Wan’s side. It’s Li Hong Yi courting death on his own.” Li Hong Yuan’s tone was dull.
On the inside, Li Hong Yuan was mostly thinking about Yao Rao. Li Hong Yi nine times out of ten will have all the blame pushed onto her. It was her enticing Li Hong Yi to be licentious during the daytime, ignoring the eldest imperial grandson. Regardless of whether it’s for the sake of face or what, in this kind of situation, Yao Rao most likely will be executed. If that woman were to just die like this, then really would be too wronged. However, based on Li Hong Yuan’s knowledge, afraid it won’t be that easy.
Speaking of which, Yao Rao was indeed unlucky, never mind getting screwed over by Jing Wan for no reason, but afterwards, just thought about winning back Kang Qinw.a.n.g’s favor, overlooking the rest. As a result, it was just bad luck upon bad luck.
Oh, everything is all going very smoothly.
