World-shaking First Daughter: Powerful Medical Princess Chapter 156 - Unsaid Secret

Chapter 156 Unsaid Secret

When Su Muge opened Qingyu’s nose, she saw the small black thing at a glance. She pulled it out with tweezers and threw it into the prepared potion.

“Thread. Prepare to st.i.tch the wound.”

Before Guima could figure out what was going on, this operation had been over!

“This is over?”

Su Muge glanced at him. “Otherwise, what else do you want to do?”

To be accurate, the worms liked to stay in human’s septal cartilage, so they could be easily taken out.

Su Muge took the needle and thread to sew the wound, disinfected the wound, and the operation was over.

“The anesthetic will fade away in two quarters. If he can’t wake up in time, find a way to wake him up.”

Su Muge took off her gloves and started to clean up the surgical instruments.

She would go to the drug house to make medicine. There was no need to waste her time on what could be done by others.

Guima stared at the scalpel in her hand.

He had been learning medicine since childhood. And he had only used daggers before. Although some daggers were sharp, they were actually inconvenient to use!

If he could own such a set of tools …

“Your Grace, let me use it?” Guima reached out for the scalpel.

Su Muge raised her arm and got rid of his hand.

She would use her custom-made scalpel in every operation. The scalpel was like her underwear. She didn’t like anyone else to touch her underwear.

“Find someone to make it for you if you want to use it.”

“You should at least give me a model; otherwise, how can I find someone to make it?”

Su Muge closed her medical kit with a “Bang”. “I’ll give you the drawings in two days.”

Hearing it, Guima was a little satisfied.

“Keep your promise!”

Su Muge smiled. “Okay.”

Su Muge opened the door, and Liu Rumeng walked forward.

“Your Grace, how’s brother Qingyu?”

Seeing that the worry on her face seemed to be sincere, Su Muge paused and said, “Not bad.”

Liu Rumeng wanted to ask a few more questions, but Su Muge gave her no more chance at all and left carrying her medical kit.

“Your Grace, someone has just sent the message that the first batch of medicines is ready.” Just as Su Muge entered her courtyard, w.a.n.g Nuo stepped forward.

“Well, let’s go to have a look.”

The two came to the largest room.

The prepared medicines were placed on the table in order.

“Your Grace.” w.a.n.g Yi came over from the backyard.

“Tell them to rest for two days and wait for my next instructions.”

“Yes.”

Su Muge looked at the medicines in the room and checked them over once again.

She also carried out sampling tests.

“Carry all the medicines back to the mansion.”

“Yes.”

…

In the Imperial Study of the Imperial Palace.

Xia Hourui in a dragon robe was leaning on the dragon throne. His spirit seemed to be poor.

Xia Houmo, Xia Houkun, and Xia Houzhen were all standing in the hall.

“Do you know why I call you here today?”

Xia Houkun lowered his eyes and said, “Please make it clear, father.”

Xia Hourui sighed softly. “You also know that I’m getting older and my body is getting weaker. Those ministers have been sending me letters to ask me to establish the Crown Prince quickly.”

After Xia Hourui finished speaking, he glances through the faces of the three sons with his hazy eyes.

“Among all my sons, you three are the best, so I let you come today just to ask you who you think is the most suitable Crown Prince.”

The hall was extremely silent.

No matter how they answered this question, they would be wrong!

Xia Houkun was the most b.u.t.ter-tonsiled among the three, so he would surely be the first one to speak at this time. “Naturally, we must choose an emperor as wise as you, father.”

He said nothing useful but sucked up to the Emperor.

Xia Houzhen said with a frown, “Father, I think we should choose the most virtuous prince to be the Crown Prince.”

Xia Hourui glanced at him slowly. “Oh? Then who do you think is most virtuous?”

Xia Houzhen lowered his head and closed his lips for a moment, not knowing how to respond.

Seeing Xia Houzhen’s look, Xia Houkun raised the corner of his lips contemptuously, thinking that he was still so stupid and low and couldn’t change his inferior birth even if he was raised by the Queen!

Xia Hourui turned his gaze to Xia Houmo who was standing beside silently.

“Mo’er, what do you say?”

Xia Houmo lifted his eyelids. “I heard the common people give me a nickname.”

Xia Hourui raised his right eyebrow. “What is it?”

“Demon.”

Xia Hourui laughed out loud. “Well, I’ve always been saying that you should be friendly to others.”

“Demon” couldn’t get a.s.sociated with virtue at all.

Xia Houkun lowered his eyes. The real power of Xia Houmo was far more superior to him. If Xia Houmo really competed with him, he was not Xia Houmo’s opponent at all in terms of military power!

“Your grandmother’s birthday is coming soon. A few days ago, I received a letter from Xiliang Kingdom, saying that the Prince of Xiliang Kingdom would come to celebrate her birthday. Zhen’er, you are the eldest prince of the Chu, so you’ll be responsible for receiving the Prince of Xiliang Kingdom at that time.” Xia Hourui suddenly changed the topic.

“Yes, father.”

“Xiliang Kingdom and the Chu have been in a good relations.h.i.+p for many years. Mo’er, during Prince Xiliang’s stay in the capital, there can be no mistake, understand?”

“Yes.”

Xia Hourui took up the green tea on the table and took a sip. Then he suddenly said as if he had remembered something, “Oh, the East Qi will also send messengers here. Kun’er, you’ll be responsible for receiving them when they arrive.”

Each of the three had something to do, so he would be unbiased.

“Yes, father.”

“Well, I’m tired, you may retreat.”

“Please excuse my departure.”

The three left the Imperial Study together.

Xia Houkun walked to Xia Houzhen and said with a smile, “eldest brother, I heard that the Prince of Xiliang Kingdom was a bit weird. At that time, you should be more careful with him.”

Xia Houkun put on a soft smile on his face. “Thank you for your reminding, second brother.”

Xia Houmo pa.s.sed the two and walked ahead. Xia Houkun narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at Xia Houmo’s back.

Xia Houmo walked out of the palace gate and mounted his horse.

Donglin also mounted his horse. Seeing Xia Houmo’s back, he gritted his teeth and came to his side. “Your Royal Highness, I have got some clues about the matter of Fairy Jinghong, but…”

Xia Houmo glanced at him coldly, and Donglin hurriedly said, “But I haven’t found anything about the person with the surname Ye. There were only two maids surnamed Ye in Su Mansion.”

Xia Houmo was expressionless, but Donglin felt the air around him too frozen to breathe.

“Investigate the matter of Fairy Jinghong in detail. As for the person with the surname Ye, there is no need to check.” Whoever that person was, Su Muge could only be his, physically or mentally!

…

In the main room of Su Mansion.

Zhao was sitting on the chair and staring at the account books on the table in a trance.

Meihua put the freshly cooked white fungus soup with lotus-nuts on the table and glanced at Zhao.

Since Su Muge left, Zhao had been like this, sitting alone in a daze and doing things absent-mindedly.

Meihua approached her and whispered, “Madam, I’ve brought you the white fungus soup with lotus-nuts. You didn’t eat anything in the morning. Hurry to drink some soup while it’s hot.”

Zhao came to her sense and reached out to send a spoonful of soup into her mouth mechanically.

In her mind was what Fairy Jinghong said to her.

“Keep this small picture and find a way to leave the picture on the child before she is three years old. Don’t be discovered. When the child grows up, you mustn’t tell her about it unless you are forced to do so. And burn the drawings after using it.”

The young Zhao took over the small picture as large as a palm and a bottle of potion with trembling fingers.

After so many years, Zhao couldn’t quite remember what was drawn on the picture but could vaguely remember that there were many strange patterns on it. And she hadn’t seen it so far.

Yesterday, she tried her best to hold back the secret and she hoped Mumu wouldn’t blame her in the future.

Zhao sighed and put down the spoon.

…

Su Muge had been busy working in the drug house. Even if the pharmacy had been stopped now, she still had a lot of things to do. She had to determine the proportion of the formula repeatedly to ensure that the medicine could achieve the best effect.

“Your Grace, it’s getting late. Let’s go back first.”

On the day when Su Muge returned home late, Xia Houmo had given w.a.n.g Nuo and w.a.n.g Yi an order that they must send Su Muge back before dark. w.a.n.g Nuo dared not to disobey but could only bite the bullet to remind Su Muge.

Su Muge rubbed her sore waist; she didn’t want to be too tired today.

“Okay, let’s go back. Find someone to look after here. Don’t let anyone enter this room without my permission.”

“Your Grace, rest a.s.sured that I’ll let someone strictly guard here for 24 hours.”

“Okay.”

Hardly had Su Muge returned to Bamboo Courtyard when Xia Houmo returned.

“Your Royal Highness, you are back.”

Xia Houmo was wearing a cold look. After taking off his robe and was.h.i.+ng his hands, he sat down beside her.

“I can’t let you rest today?”

Su Muge pretended to be ignorant with a blink. “Your Royal Highness, go to see Qingyu in a while.” She felt that Xia Houmo took Qingyu quite seriously.

Xia Houmo reached out to squeeze her face; her face was so soft and smooth that he felt his fingertips were going to melt.

“He’s in the mansion. I can see him tomorrow.”

“Your Royal Highness, the first batch of medicines has been prepared. When will you take them to test the effect?”

“It’s done?” Xia Houmo raised his eyes slightly; he didn’t expect her to be so fast.

“Well, the volume this time is relatively small. After confirming that the drug effect is okay, I’ll increase the volume.”

“Okay, I’ll take them to the injured barrack tomorrow.”

There was an injured barrack of the imperial guards and the army stationed outside the capital. Both of the injured barracks were on the same site, but the army and the imperial guards were separated. However, both of them were under the control of Xia Houmo.

Su Muge raised her lips and looked at him. “Let me go with you, Your Royal Highness?”

Since she was asking him at the moment, her tone became much softer.

“You are unwell.”

“I’m quite active today. Your Royal Highness, please take me there.”

“Well, you should be in disguise.” Looking at her big and bright eyes, Xia Houmo finally agreed.

“Thank you, Your Royal Highness.”

Just as Xia Houmo reached out to hug her, there was a roar outside the door. “Your Royal Highness, Qingyu has an accident!”
