The next day, Liu Qingxi left the palace before dawn and took a carriage to Prince Zhan's Mansion.
Unexpectedly, halfway through, an out-of-control crazy horse suddenly appeared on the street and crashed into her carriage.
The driver was so frightened that he tried to escape in a hurry, but it was too late. The carriage was knocked over by a strong force.
boom!
Liu Qingxi was thrown out of the car and let out a frightened and painful scream: "Ah!"
"Aunt Liu!" The maid who ducked aside turned pale and hurriedly stepped forward to help her up. "Aunt Liu, how are you? Are you okay?"
Liu Qingxi's vision turned black, and her legs and arms seemed to be broken. Her face was pale in pain, her brows were furrowed tightly, and she couldn't help but burst into tears.
"This beast!" A man in red rushed over, sat down neatly on the horse, swung a few whips, and quickly controlled the crazy horse, "Don't go crazy again, or I will kill you." Eight pieces, throw the horse meat to feed the wolves!”
Liu Qingxi was supported by two palace maids and stood up from the ground with difficulty. Her face turned pale in pain and her eyes were red.
The man in red jumped down, walked directly to her, and bowed deeply: "This beast suddenly went crazy and shocked the girl. I hope she will forgive me."
Liu Qingxi raised her eyes and looked at the man in front of her, with anger in her tearful eyes: "Horses are not allowed on the Imperial City Road. You actually let the crazy horse do its thing. Don't you want to live?!"
"I have already explained that this beast suddenly went crazy. It was not my intention to indulge." The man in red took out a bag of silver from his sleeve and threw it to her. "This is compensation. Girl, take it to buy medicine."
After saying that, the slender body suddenly stood up from the ground, and the red clothes flashed before his eyes, and the man jumped onto the horse again.
Liu Qingxi's expression was extremely ugly, and when she was about to question him again, she saw him flicking his horsewhip and galloping away like a meteor, several feet away in the blink of an eye.
It all happened so fast that people didn't even have time to react. Liu Qingxi was not even sure whether this person did it intentionally or unintentionally. Everything was over.
Although it was early in the morning at this time, most of the ministers from the previous court had already entered the palace. Common people could not get here. There were not many people on the road. She didn't know who to ask if she wanted to ask.
Liu Qingxi gritted her teeth and stared at the direction the man in red was leaving: "Who is this person?"
The two palace maids looked at each other helplessly, and both shook their heads to express their ignorance.
"Girl!" The Imperial Guards on duty came quickly from a distance. Seeing the clothes on Liu Qingxi's body, they took the initiative to bow their hands in greeting, "Did the girl get hit by a horse just now?"
Liu Qingxi looked at them coldly: "The horse that hit the man and its owner have gone far away, and you just came? What were you doing just now?"
Several imperial guards looked at each other. Although they were displeased, they were not sure which noble master this girl was serving in the palace. They did not dare to offend her rashly. They only held up their hands and said humbly: "We have neglected our duty. We will send someone to investigate."
After that, he turned around and left in a hurry.
Liu Qingxi closed her eyes and suppressed her anger: "Forget it, let's go to the Prince's Palace first."
The carriage was lifted up by several guards, but Liu Qingxi was too frightened to sit on it anymore.
It just so happens that this place is not far from Prince Zhan's Mansion.
She walked to Prince Zhan's Mansion with her two maids, but her body was in severe pain, so she inevitably walked a little slowly.
When they arrived at the palace and followed Mother Xiong to see the princess, Chu Yunfei was taking Bao Chan and other maids to pack the war king's clothes in Jinlin Courtyard.
Seeing Liu Qingxi who had arrived late, surprise appeared on Chu Yunfei's face: "What's wrong with Dr. Liu?"
"There was an accident on the way." Liu Qingxi took a deep breath and lowered her eyebrows and said, "My slave is late, please forgive me, Princess."
"...It doesn't matter." Chu Yunfei scanned her from head to toe and said slowly, "Would you like to find a doctor to take a look at Miss Liu first?"
Liu Qingxi shook his head: "I am a doctor myself. I just fell down and was unprepared."
Chu Yunfei nodded casually, turned to Baochan and told Baochan to take the packed clothes and books to Shuanghua Courtyard, and then said: "Baochan has already boiled the medicine and given it to the prince. The prince didn't sleep much last night. Okay, I just went to bed now."
Liu Qingxi's expression changed slightly: "The slave hasn't come yet, how can the princess give the prince medicine without permission?"
"What Miss Liu said is funny." Chu Yun's eyes were delicate and cold, "If Miss Liu can't come today, will the prince stop drinking the medicine?"
Liu Qingxi froze, lowered her head and said, "This is not what I mean."
"Miss Liu, please recognize your identity." Chu Yunfei warned her coldly, "You are just a medical woman who came under the order of the imperial concubine, but you cannot issue orders on behalf of the imperial concubine."
Liu Qingxi frowned when he heard this. Although he looked embarrassed, his eyes were looking at Chu Yunfei arrogantly.
"What's Miss Liu's look like?" Chu Yunfei raised his hand to grab her chin, with a playful but cool smile on his lips, "I am a princess who is more noble than you, and I can decide your life or death by raising my hand. You are arrogant and disrespectful, I don’t know whose power I am relying on when I commit the crime below?”
Liu Qingxi was obviously unconvinced: "This slave belongs to the imperial concubine, and represents the imperial concubine's face."
"Rong Cang is the biological son of the Imperial Concubine, and I am the daughter-in-law of the Imperial Concubine." Chu Yunfei said quietly, "What does Miss Liu mean, is the Imperial Concubine asking you to be disrespectful to me, the Princess of War?"
Liu Qingxi paused and turned slightly pale: "The Imperial Concubine did not—"
"Then you made your own decision and didn't take this princess seriously?" Chu Yunfei's eyes turned cold, staring at Liu Qingxi with a bone-piercing gaze, "So I still want to ask, who is the supporter for you? You forgot your identity and how dare you act so recklessly in Prince Zhan's Mansion?"
Liu Qingxi's face turned green and white, and she finally lowered her head and said reluctantly: "I am guilty of this."
Chu Yunfei released her chin, closed his eyes and brushed the sleeves of his robe: "You are indeed here under orders, but you should not use the name of the imperial concubine to arrogantly. If it accidentally reaches the ears of the censor, They sued the imperial concubine in front of the emperor, do you think the imperial concubine will continue to keep you?"
Liu Qingxi's face turned pale, and she clenched her hands hanging by her side little by little, and slowly knelt down: "I acknowledge my sin, and please forgive me, Princess."
"I heard that Doctor Liu once had a wife in his hometown of Tongzhou." Chu Yunfei looked at her condescendingly, with a look of disdain in his eyes, "I wonder how the first wife is doing now."
Liu Qingxi was startled and looked up at her in disbelief: "What did the princess say?"
"Miss Liu still doesn't know?" Chu Yunfei smiled faintly, walked to the chair slowly and sat down, "When your good father was studying medicine in Tongzhou Medical College, he had a marriage with the master's daughter. They were married by a matchmaker. A married couple, your father's medical skills were all taught by his master. Unexpectedly, when he entered the Imperial City Imperial Hospital, Imperial Doctor Liu not only abandoned his wife and children, but even secretly sent people to suppress their family and strictly prohibited them from going to the capital to recognize their relatives. If anyone knows about the crime of stopping his wife and remarrying..."
"Impossible!" The color on Liu Qingxi's face faded, and she shook her head in panic, her voice full of uneasiness, "Impossible, this is not true..."
