Chapter 49 Brothers and sisters
Ning Yunxi hired a carriage near Cisha Mountain and returned to the capital.
She did not choose to return to Ning Mansion, but instead ordered the coachman to stop the carriage in front of the gate of Prince Dijin's Mansion.
Just when he was about to ask for a meeting, he saw Gao Jing himself guarding the door.
Seeing her coming, Gao Jing looked at her with cold and arrogant eyes and condescending manner.
"What brings Miss Ning San here?"
Ning Yunxi lowered her eyes without any confidence.
"I...I'll treat my brother's injury."
Gao Jing slightly bent his right arm, and grasped the hilt of the sword with his right hand wantonly, with a threatening look and clear meaning.
"The prince has left a message that Third Miss Ning is not allowed to receive medical treatment. He has already invited the imperial physician from the palace to come."
Ning Yunxi heard the sound of someone clenching the hilt of the sword and subconsciously took a half step back.
"Please inform Master Gao that I want to save my brother and redeem myself from my crime. Please give me another chance."
Gao Jing gave him another cold glance.
"how?"
"Miss Third Ning, do you think that the palace doctors' medical skills are inferior to a quack doctor like you?"
"Excuse me, but you are too arrogant."
"Also, please respect yourself, Miss Ning San. The prince has made it clear that he has never sworn brotherhood with you."
"Your Majesty is the ruler, and you are the daughter of a minister. Miss Ning San, don't you even know the most basic rules?"
Ning Yunxi knelt in the street, reported loudly, and kowtowed deeply.
"Your humble servant Ning Yunxi requests to see Prince Dijin. Please allow me to see you, Your Majesty!"
At this time, a servant came hurriedly and whispered something in Gao Jing's ear.
Gao Jing was slightly startled.
"what?"
After being surprised, he gave orders to the gate guard in a deep voice.
"Guard the door carefully and don't let anyone in."
When he mentioned the word "people", he looked at Ning Yunxi in a very targeted manner.
After saying this, Gao Jing left quickly.
Soon he arrived at the door of Yan Yu's bedroom.
Seeing Lin Mu coming out, Gao Jing walked forward anxiously and asked.
"The messenger said you asked me to come over here because of something urgent?"
"what happened?"
"How is the prince?"
Lin Mu sighed and shook his head.
"The prince is in a coma, the situation is very bad."
"I have applied medicine and bandaged the serious injuries."
"But whether he can wake up or not depends on the prince's luck."
"By the way, why don't you ask Miss Ning San to come over for treatment?"
"Her medical skills are superb, and I cannot compare with her. If we can invite her here, the prince may not be in danger of losing his life."
Gao Jing was in a bit of a dilemma.
"No."
"The prince left a message, not allowing her to treat it."
"You don't know that the prince was seriously injured this time because of her conspiracy with Prince Chen."
"This person is really abominable. The prince is suspicious, and I don't trust her either."
Lin Mu frowned slightly, as if he was confused.
"Ok?"
"Conspiring with His Royal Highness Prince Chen?"
"How can this be?"
"Earlier, I heard the prince mention that she not only gave advice to the prince, but also Lord Xie, Yin Sicheng, Lord Teng, Yin Sixiang, and Lord Qin, Tinghexiang, were all persuaded by her clever tricks to follow and assist the prince."
"These three gentlemen are well-known good ministers. With their help, the prince can be said to be even more powerful."
"How could she turn against us?"
"There must be some misunderstanding here, right?"
Gao Jing snorted disdainfully.
"The prince said that this is her way of gaining people's trust."
"Humph, when this matter is mentioned, I get furious."
"Strange, you have been smart since you were young, even the prince praised you, you have the wisdom of a founding minister and the wisdom of a loyal minister in the last dynasty."
"How come you can't see that this person is strange now?"
"Even I wasn't deceived by her."
"Could it be that you have been concentrating on medical knowledge for so many years that you have completely forgotten about political schemes and tactics?"
Lin Mu looked at him, his eyes full of helplessness.
"What the prince said was just a suspicion, not the truth."
"You really misunderstood."
Gao Jing looked arrogant.
"impossible."
"I saw her plotting against the prince with my own eyes, and I saw the prince almost lose his life with my own eyes."
"She has many tricks, but you are not smart enough to see them."
"Is what I see with my own eyes not as good as your guess?"
Lin Mu was even more helpless.
"It's fine if you don't want to go."
"Then I'll go and ask her."
Gao Jing stretched out his hand to stop him.
"No need to invite her, she's already kneeling at the door."
"She is eager to use strong drugs to kill the prince as soon as possible."
"The guards who followed her said that as soon as she entered the capital, she couldn't wait to come here and didn't even go back to Ning Mansion."
Lin Mu showed a hint of surprise.
"That's great. I'll ask her to come in and treat the prince as soon as possible."
Gao Jing frowned and glared, determined to stop him.
"You dare not obey the prince's order?"
Lin Mu had never learned martial arts. He wanted to push him away or go around him, but to no avail. In the end, he was at a loss.
"Your Highness was just speaking in anger, can't you really tell?"
"I guessed it all."
"Don't stop me. You have delayed the prince's treatment. If your father asks you to hold him accountable, how are you going to explain it?"
When Gao Jing heard his father's questioning, his arrogance relaxed slightly.
"But……"
"What should I do if the prince asks for an explanation?"
Lin Mu said confidently.
"I will bear all the consequences."
"Just pretend you know nothing."
There was still a little bit of Gao Jing's arrogant look left.
"Am I that kind of person?"
"You and I grew up together and are as close as brothers. How could I just stand by and watch?"
"If you insist on asking her to treat you, then fine."
As he spoke, he thought for a moment.
"I have an idea for you, remember to cooperate."
"I'll ask her to treat him quietly and not to make anyone know. When I report to the prince afterwards, I'll say that it was you who treated him throughout the whole process and no one else did."
Lin Mu felt helpless secretly, but on the surface he showed gratitude and praised him endlessly.
"You are still smart."
“That’s a great idea.”
"The prince will definitely not find out."
"The mountains are high and the seas are deep. I am deeply grateful."
Gao Jing helped him in time and stopped him from saluting.
"Okay, we're brothers, why are you being so polite?"
"I'll call her over now."
After saying that, he hurried to the main entrance.
Ning Yunxi remained kneeling and did not leave.
Gao Jing glanced at him arrogantly and spoke in an unkind tone.
"come in."
Ning Yunxi was slightly startled, then quickly stood up and followed him in.
Gao Jing reminded as he walked.
"You can go and treat him, but I can't let the prince know about this, otherwise, Master Lin will be punished."
"Remember?"
Ning Yunxi was only thinking about Yan Yu's safety and didn't listen to him very seriously.
"Ah."
"As long as we can save the prince."
The two of them entered Yan Yu's bedroom together.
Ning Yunxi concentrated on the treatment, and Gao Jing watched from the side the whole time, fearing that she would hurt Yan Yu again.
Prince Di Jin’s palace had its own medicine box, and Lin Mu also brought a medicine box.
However, Ning Yunxi rarely used it, and mostly took out medical tools from the medical space.
Gao Jing just watched and felt it was strange.
"Why are your sleeves as strange as the prince's?"
“How do you fit so many things?”
Ning Yunxi ignored him and focused on treatment.
She knew that Gao Jing was loyal to Yan Yu, so she was not on guard.
After some treatment, Gao Jing immediately sent her away.
Turn around and check carefully.
Gao Jing saw an IV patch on the back of Yan Yu's hand, and he was puzzled.
"What is this?"
"Plaster?"
"so small?"
"It can't be kept as evidence. It would be bad if the prince found out."
"It's so small, it shouldn't be a problem."
"Well, uncover it."
As he said this, he peeled off the IV patch and threw it into the charcoal basin.
A crimson color immediately seeped out from the needle hole of Yan Yu's infusion.
Gao Jing was so frightened that his face turned pale and he was at a loss as to what to do.
"what?"
"What...what should I do?"
