456 No Next Time 2

Su Xiaoling smiled and nodded with tears in her eyes.

Madam Zhao gently hugged her two daughters and got up to return to her room.

After Madam Zhao left, Su Xiaoling heaved a sigh of relief. “I thought I wouldn’t make my mother worry when I grew up, but I still made her worry about me.”

“But mother will find out eventually, sis.”

Su Xiaolu leaned on Su Xiaoling’s shoulder.

The empress did not like Zhou Zhi. All the officials and even the commoners knew that. Whether a person’s heart was biased towards someone was clear as day.

The empress didn’t like Zhou Heng now and didn’t trust him. Sooner or later, people would find out.

“I’ll be fine in the future. I’ll be safe and sound, and mother will be at ease.”

Perhaps a mother would worry about her child for the rest of her life. She just wanted to hide as much as possible.

“Alright, don’t think too much. Go to sleep. I’ll be careful with the empress in the future, and I’ll be careful with others too. What I should do most is to protect myself.”

Su Xiaoling patted Su Xiaolu gently and smiled.

She might not be too smart and could not deal with so many schemes, but she only needed to protect herself.

As long as one was alive, everything was possible.

Su Xiaolu closed her eyes. She was not sleepy. She sank her consciousness into the Space to take care of her medicinal field.

In the Space, she looked at the two fields filled with medicinal herbs. In the middle was a flowing spiritual spring, but she did not know where the spiritual spring water flowed to.

She sat by the spirit spring and breathed in the clear air. She felt very comfortable.

In the past ten years, she had only planted medicinal herbs in her space. She had also tried living things, but she could not bring living things into the Space.

She could bring in medicinal herbs, dry rations, and even prepared dishes, but she could not bring in live animals.

Could the Space only be used to grow medicine?

What would be behind the thick white fog?

Her spiritual spring water had been flowing. Where had the spiritual spring water gone?

Su Xiaolu felt that she still knew too little about the world. Although she had never seen ghosts in her life, it did not mean that there were no ghosts.

In the past, she did not believe that people could be reborn, but the truth was that she had transmigrated and carried the memories of her previous life.

Her eldest brother wanted to take the martial arts examination. Her second brother was already the top scorer and would walk the path of an official in the future.

Third Sister had someone she liked and could be fearless for the future. What about her?

In the past, she wanted to roam the martial world. Although this idea had never changed, she felt that roaming the martial world was a little monotonous.

She recalled Zhou Zhi’s previous question, “Can broken limbs be regenerated?” What kind of power could regenerate broken limbs?

Su Xiaolu lay on the grass by the spiritual spring and thought carefully. Vaguely, she felt that she was about to grab something, but she still could not figure it out. Perhaps she had thought too much and her head felt a little heavy.

Su Xiaolu frowned and stopped thinking. She drank two handfuls of spiritual spring water and left the Space.

Su Xiaoling was already asleep.

Su Xiaoling was very quiet after falling asleep. Her breathing was even and she slept well. She was not like Su Xiaolu, who always looked like a koala.

Su Xiaolu could not help but smile. She leaned closer to Su Xiaoling and hugged her to sleep.

The next morning, Liu Zijin set off home.

Su Chong and Su Hua sent him out of the capital.

Qin Shoucheng also came as promised. He did not wear the government uniform. When he saw Su Xiaolu, he smiled and said, “Miss Su, I came at the right time, right?”

That day, he was delayed by something. That day, when Su Xiaolu and Su Xiaoling left the palace, they agreed to meet today. Su Xiaolu also went with him to see the princess with the fox’s stench.

Su Xiaolu nodded. “Just in time. Let’s go.”

Su Xiaoling smiled and nodded at Su Xiaolu, indicating that she was relieved.

Su Xiaolu and Qin Shoucheng got into the carriage together.

In the carriage, Qin Shoucheng said to Su Xiaolu, “Princess Pingan’s illness started when she was five years old. Her mother and father didn’t have such an illness. Back then, they searched for famous doctors but couldn’t cure her. Princess Pingan had to take a commoner as her husband. Because of this illness, the princess was depressed. Now that she gave birth to a daughter, she also has this illness. She’s also so worried that her hair has turned white.”

The child was still young, so she could still hide it. However, when the child grew up, Zhou Pingan could not always be by the child’s side. As long as she could not hide it, her child would only walk the path she had taken.

She would be despised and ostracized by others. It would be even harder for her to find a husband in the future. Just like her, she would have to use money, fame, and fortune to find a husband. What men loved was the money she brought.

Upon knowing that there was such an opportunity, Zhou Pingan couldn’t wait any longer. When the time was up, she immediately urged Qin Shoucheng to bring the divine doctor there.

“Miss Su, how do you think such an illness can be cured?”

Qin Shoucheng asked humbly. He had mixed incense and made medicine for Princess Pingan, but it had not improved. Instead, as he used too much ointment and sachets, her condition worsened. For this, he felt guilty.

However, Princess Pingan never blamed him. She only said words of gratitude.

Among all the noble ladies, this was really a rare good quality.

“Imperial Physician Qin, you’ve made so many ointments and sachets for the princess. Have you ever thought of cutting off the sweat glands that emit the strange smell?”

The root cause of the fox’s stench was the abnormal secretion of sweat glands. In medicine, the fastest way was to cut it off. Although ancient people had a feudal concept, there was no lack of allusions such as bone scraping and healing.

“Miss Su, this… I’ve thought about it, but there are differences between men and women. I also have many inconveniences.”

Qin Shoucheng said helplessly. Although there was no gender in the eyes of doctors, as patients, they couldn’t ignore the gender of doctors.

They could not accept showing their bodies to the opposite sex.

Women found it more difficult than men to receive treatment from doctors of the opposite sex.

“Imperial Physician Qin, why don’t you take in some female doctors?”

Su Xiaolu asked naturally.

Qin Shoucheng looked at Su Xiaolu and smiled gently. “Miss Su, this is a prejudice against women in the secular world. There are very few women who are willing to study medicine, and there are even fewer women who are willing to study medicine wholeheartedly. They have to take care of family matters, so they can’t divert their attention to studying medicine.”

Regardless of whether it was a woman from a rich family or a woman from a small family, they spent their lives diligently cultivating their reputation, such as zither, chess, calligraphy, poetry, song, embroidery, and so on. They got married and had children when they were in their teens. Their entire lives revolved around their husband, in-laws, children, and the kitchen. It was rare for them to have time to spare, and they also had sisters-in-law to worry about. How could they have the time to study medicine?

Studying medicine was not something that could be done overnight. There were too few people with talent in this world. It took many years to meet someone like Su Xiaolu.

“True.”

Su Xiaolu stopped asking.

The carriage arrived at Princess Pingan’s residence.

Qin Shoucheng brought Su Xiaolu out of the carriage and saw an anxious woman coming out of the residence. She should be in her twenties and looked a little haggard.

There was actually a lot of white hair on her exquisite sideburns. As soon as she walked in, a strong fragrance stimulated Su Xiaolu’s nose. She immediately sneezed a few times, and Qin Shoucheng was not any better. He also sneezed a few times.
