Chapter 1551: Will the Princess Still Love Me When She Comes Back?
Before Shi Li could leave, the Tenth Prince, who had been enjoying himself in Qizhou these days, hurriedly appeared in front of her with an anxious expression on his face.
"Lili, I saved an old man, but he was seriously injured. Can you help me take a look at him?"
What's the situation?
Shi Li didn't understand what was going on, so he followed the Tenth Prince outside and saw an old man lying on the ground, dying. He was breathing out more than he was breathing in, and didn't look like he could survive.
Shi Li: ...
No, Xiaoshi, how can you study the emergency department of a hospital?
Isn't this pure deception?
Complaints aside, since it was a matter of life and death, Shi Li still immediately ordered someone to call a doctor and prescribe some medicine. He even used a piece of precious ginseng to bring the old man back from the brink of death.
After all the trouble, she almost missed the worship time. She gave a few instructions to the Tenth Prince, then hurriedly changed into the clothes of a commoner girl from Xifan and went out.
Fortunately, I caught up at the last minute.
When I revisited the old place, I felt completely different.
Shi Li mingled inconspicuously among the devout Western people, looking at the distant palaces again and again.
Beneath the calm appearance, the heartbeat is getting faster and faster.
They hadn't seen each other for two years, although they had been exchanging letters, but now she was finally going to meet him in person, and she couldn't describe her feelings.
After waiting and waiting, I finally saw a red shadow appear in the distance.
Just like before, he was walking towards us from a distance with steady steps, as if he was far away from this world, standing alone in the void.
Shi Li stared at Ming Shi as he approached step by step.
After not seeing him for two years, he seemed to have changed, yet he seemed to have not changed. He was still handsome and looked at the people around him with compassionate eyes.
But it seems that it is gentler than two years ago.
I don’t know if it’s her imagination.
When they got closer, Shi Li finally lowered her head again, not daring to look him in the face.
Seeing the person walking towards him, just like two years ago, he stopped in front of her.
"Blessings, to you."
A familiar yet unfamiliar voice sounded above her head. Shi Li subconsciously raised her head, and her forehead was gently brushed like a breeze.
She didn't see Mingshi's eyes, he had already walked past.
Just then a gentle breeze blew by, and the sound of silver bells rang in my hair.
The footsteps of the Son of God in red seemed to pause again, and then he walked further and further away.
Shi Li didn't even know if it was a coincidence or if he recognized her.
My heart seems to be entangled by something, and the complex emotions are hard to describe.
The confused Westerners around her looked at her with envy.
"The Son of God himself has blessed you."
"You will definitely have good luck!"
"You are lucky. The Son of God has blessed you. Your wishes will surely come true!"
May what she wishes come true? Can what she wishes really come true?
Shi Li pursed her lips, looked at the figure that was already walking away, turned around and left without hesitation.
As a princess of the Yu Dynasty, she did not dare to stay in Xifan for long and hurried back to Qizhou.
Thinking of the old man who was rescued by the Tenth Prince before he left, he went to ask him. When he got there, he found out that the old man was actually a Western doctor. After waking up, he left despite his illness.
"I asked, and he accidentally offended a powerful person while treating someone, and was retaliated against, which led to this disaster." The Tenth Prince explained to Shi Li.
Shi Li nodded and didn't take the matter to heart. Saving a life is always a good thing.
But this also reminded her of something else.
Whether it was Xifan or the Yu Dynasty, they should have paid more attention to doctors. Especially in Xifan, if there were more doctors, the devastating plague might not have been so tragic.
There is also farming and people's livelihood issues which are the foundation of a country.
Ming Shi was important to her, but so were other things.
Shi Li stayed in Qizhou for more than half a month, then hurried back to Changning to continue working with the emperor in the court.
She raised the issue of doctors and farming, which was initially looked down upon by many pedantic old officials, who felt that such a small matter should not be taken so seriously.
As a result, a small-scale flood occurred in the south not long after. Although the response was timely and the local people did not suffer, the importance of doctors was also reflected.
The old ministers once again looked at Shi Li with admiration.
There were also some people whose brains seemed to be rotten, who still felt that she should not be the first to cry out at dawn, and who found fault with her in every way. They even made a fuss about the fact that she had reached the age of marriage, and directly suggested to the emperor at the morning court to find a prince consort to marry her off.
Shi Li: You guys are really endless...
As a result, the emperor's next words shocked everyone.
