Chapter 73 Distressed, Kidnapping on the way
Jun Jiuchen had almost arrived in front of Gu Feiyan when she discovered him.
She had to admit that Jun Jiuchen was simply too handsome. Even though he was wearing a long face, he was still as good-looking as ever.
Gu Feiyan wanted to strike the iron while it was still hot to raise doubts about Pharmacist Jian’s death. But before she could say anything, the First Prince Jun Yaocheng had already followed Jun Jiuchen over, chuckling as he said, "I really didn't expect a mere medicine girl to be capable of such a feat. Prince Jing, when are you going to impart your ability of finding talents?"
On the surface, he was polite and even flattered Prince Jing, but in reality, he was actually jealous and resentful. After all, if Prince Jing didn't return, the Crown Prince wouldn't be his match.
Jun Jiuchen coldly replied, "The divine reading from Daci Temple never missed."
Jun Yaocheng sized up Gu Feiyan, as if he didn't really see her as a capable person, and didn't put her in his eyes either. He quickly changed the topic and began to get serious. "Prince Jing, the Qi family's case is a huge matter and should not be delayed. We should hurry back to the palace and gather all the officials to discuss it with Imperial Father."
Jun Yaocheng didn't feel the slightest bit reassured if Jun Jiuchen went to see the Emperor by himself. He was afraid that Jun Jiuchen might make a complaint against Princess Huaining. Moreover, it had been a while since he last saw his father. There were many rumors saying that his father was in critical condition, but Prince Jing had hidden it away. He naturally wanted to make use of this opportunity to investigate.
"I shall enter the palace to report to Imperial Father right now. Whether or not I shall gather the officials shall be decided by Imperial Father."
Jun Jiuchen glanced at Gu Feiyan's feet from the corner of his eyes, as if he wanted to say something. However, in the end, he didn't say anything. His expression remained cold as he walked past her and slowly disappeared into the distance.
Jun Yaocheng immediately ordered his servants to send Princess Huaining who was still crying back to the palace as he strode towards Jun Jiuchen. No matter what, he had to see Imperial Father today!
Gu Feiyan watched Jun Jiuchen's disappearing figure from the gate, and a trace of disappointment surfaced in her heart. Even she herself was startled.
She didn't dare to think any further and hurriedly said, "Xia Xiaoman, let's go back. I'm going to die from the pain."
She wished she could take off all her shoes and socks immediately!
Xia Xiaoman immediately walked up to her and squatted down. "Hop on, I'll carry you."
Gu Feiyan looked disgusted, "You can carry me? I don't want to fall. Quick, help me to the carriage."
Xia Xiaoman urged in an exasperated tone, "With your skinny body, this eunuch can carry you back to Prince Jing's Estate without a problem! Come up, quick!"
Gu Feiyan was about to argue when Xia Xiaoman stood up and said angrily, "I have never carried anyone. You're the first one. You can either come up or crawl back yourself! "
As someone who needed help, what could Gu Feiyan do? With a dark face, she motioned for Xia Xiaoman to come back. Xia Xiaoman smirked and immediately squatted down.
After all, it was not an elegant sight. Xia Xiaoman carried Gu Feiyan through the back door.
Although Gu Feiyan was very thin, Xia Xiaoman was still a child after all. It was still a bit difficult for him to carry her on his back. Gu Feiyan could not help but whisper, "You've worked hard."
Xia Xiaoman was silent for a moment before replying awkwardly, "It's only right. In prison, you suffered for me too."
If she hadn't deliberately provoked Princess Huaining to protect him, she wouldn't have been injured to such an extent!
Gu Feiyan almost laughed out loud when she heard his discomfort. She coughed lightly, purposely looking down on him, "I didn’t do it for you. I was afraid that you'll confess to false charges under torture and slander me!"
"You!" Xia Xiaoman was infuriated.
Gu Feiyan didn't want to joke with him, so she seriously asked, "Will His Highness be coming back tonight?"
Xia Xiaoman was honest this time, "I'm not sure. However, with such a big matter, I'm afraid he won't be able to return in two or three days. "
Gu Feiyan was worried. There could be a big change in two to three days! What should she do?
At this moment, someone suddenly hugged Gu Feiyan's waist from behind. Gu Feiyan was frightened. Just as she was about to turn around, she was suddenly pulled from Xia Xiaoman's back and fell into a firm embrace.
Gu Feiyan looked around and saw that the person holding her was none other than the person she hadn't seen for a long time, Cheng Yifei. This fellow did not wear any armor today. He was dressed in royal blue casual clothes. He lacked his usual unyielding spirit and appeared even more high-spirited and unruly.
Gu Feiyan and Xia Xiaoman were stunned.
Cheng Yifei had been distressed outside the court for a long time. If it wasn't for the fact that Prince Jing was the presiding judge, he wouldn't have cared about this case and would have disregarded the court's honor to rush in. He questioned, "Eunuch Man, why didn't you tell Imperial Physician Xuan when Medicine Girl Gu was injured to such an extent? Handle her wounds on the spot?"
Before Xia Xiaoman could reply, Cheng Yifei added, "The imperial physician is in this general's carriage. Go back first. Once her wounds are treated, this general will personally send her back."
Xia Xiaoman immediately put on the airs of a house steward and asked in a serious tone, "General Cheng, what kind of logic is this? Quickly put her down! How dare you make a move on the people from Prince Jing’s Estate. You ate …"
"If His Highness wants to pursue the matter, this general will explain himself!" Cheng Yifei turned around and left with big steps while carrying Gu Feiyan.
Xia Xiaoman chased after him, but in the end, Gu Feiyan said, "Xia Xiaoman, go back first. I have something to discuss with General Cheng, so we'll be going back after we're done."
Of course, Gu Feiyan didn't want to have anything to do with Cheng Yifei. But, if she couldn't warn Prince Jing, she could start from Cheng Yifei's side!
It was much easier to talk to Cheng Yifei about the old fox.
Xia Xiaoman didn't think too much about it, he just thought that there really was an ambiguous relationship between Gu Feiyan and Cheng Yifei. He gave Gu Feiyan a disdainful look before leaving.
"Hmph, His Highness would never like a woman with loose moral like you!"
These words were naturally not heard by Gu Feiyan and Cheng Yifei.
After determining that Xia Xiaoman had left, Gu Feiyan said urgently, "Cheng Yifei, is there any movement from Eunuch Wu's side? This case is definitely done by the same person as yours. We have to think of a way to warn Prince Jing!"
When Cheng Yifei heard this, a hint of shock flashed past his eyes. However, he was still worried about Gu Feiyan's injuries. He did not respond to her and instead walked towards the carriage with big strides.
Gu Feiyan said seriously, "Cheng Yifei, this is very important. If we drag it on any longer, there will definitely be a variable!"
"What’s more important than your injury? Aren't you afraid of the pain?"
Cheng Yifei's usually cynical face was filled with seriousness, causing Gu Feiyan to subconsciously quieten down. She had always thought that this guy wouldn't be so serious.
After arriving at the carriage and seeing the female physician, Gu Feiyan could only remain silent for a while.
Cheng Yifei placed Gu Feiyan on the carriage. His movements were very slow, but his face was filled with anxiety. "Hurry and help her apply the medicine. Her hands and feet are injured. Be gentle."
As he spoke, he bent down on one knee to help Gu Feiyan take off her shoes and socks. Gu Feiyan was stunned. Even the female physician was frightened. She hadn't thought that this great general, with an army of hundreds of thousands under his command, would actually kneel down for a woman. Could it be that he had an affair with Gu Feiyan, not to take revenge on the Qi family, but to truly fall in love with her?
Gu Feiyan regained her senses and blurted out anxiously, "Cheng Yifei, get out of here! Didn't your mother teach you that men and women should not be intimate?"
The female doctor was even more shocked when she heard this. How dare Gu Feiyan, a little medicine girl, speak to General Cheng in such a manner? She must be fearless from being pampered!
At this moment, Gu Feiyan finally noticed the incomparable complex expression on the female physician's face. She felt a sense of hopelessness that couldn't be wash out by jumping into the sea. She could not help but cast a pleading look at Cheng Yifei …
