Chapter 278 Contest in the Nine Palaces

"What's more, the Queen Mother sent in not only an Autumn Lotus, but also a beautiful moon."

"Um."

Hu Jue nodded.

"If you go to the palace and meet your sister, she will know how to do it."

"Yes, I will enter the palace immediately."

Hu Hongzhi turned around and left quickly.

——

No one in the Nine Princes' Palace paid much attention to the reactions from all parties and the increasing number of unfamiliar faces outside the palace.

At that time, Xiao Mingxuan was sitting in a side hall of the main courtyard, with only gloom and anger on his usually dignified and stern face.

Opposite him was Eunuch Qi who hurriedly came from the palace.

As basin after basin of blood was brought out, the atmosphere in the whole room became increasingly desolate and depressing.

Even Eunuch Qi, who was used to big scenes, was still sitting on pins and needles.

How much blood can be contained in a person's body, even a grown man might not be able to bear it, let alone a little girl like Luo Jiuli.

It can be seen that Luo Jiuli was seriously injured.

Luo Jiuli, who he thought was seriously injured, was wearing a thick bandage, lying on the big bed in the room and calmly watching the old doctor excitedly playing with the suture needle in his hand.

"Second Miss, are you really Ling Xuzi's direct disciple?"

The old doctor was in a very excited mood. He was also startled when he was pushed into the room by the housekeeper just now.

Luo Jiuli was covered in blood, with a dagger stuck in his chest. The Ninth Prince's face was livid, wishing he could freeze those who were close to him into ice sculptures.

He was frightened and trembling, almost gritting his teeth and controlling his trembling hands, and pulled out the dagger from Luo Jiuli's chest.

Fortunately, there were two maids assisting him, wiping the wounds and spreading hemostatic powder.

Otherwise, he is afraid that if he saves Luo Jiuli today, he will die tomorrow.

After finally waiting for the Ninth Prince to leave the house, Luo Jiuli, who had been weak and weak just a moment ago, regained his energy in an instant, ordered the maid to bring the medicine box, and took out various kinds of medicine from the medicine box in front of him.

Medicines never seen before.

She even took it upon herself to sew up her wounds, and she didn't even say a word as if nothing had happened. Even through the screen, he found it incredible.

When Luo Jiuli heard the old doctor's question, he raised an eyebrow and glanced at the suture needle in his hand.

"Guaranteed replacement if fake."

The old doctor's hands were shaking again and again, and his beard was trembling with excitement.

"Then, Second Young Lady, can I take this back and study it?"

He coveted suture needles, especially in areas he was not good at.

If he could take it back to study or further communicate with Luo Jiuli, it would be of great benefit to his medical skills.

Before Luo Jiuli could speak, Nan Zhu, who had been quiet on the side, suddenly spoke.

"Doctor Jin, the master in the West Courtyard has promised to give you a potion as compensation. Why does Doctor Jin have to go even further and even want to take away the master's belongings?"

Doctor Jin smiled bitterly.

"The girl is not a doctor, and she doesn't know the desire of doctors for medical skills. Although I am old, I can learn as much as I can, so that I can be worthy of my parents."

Luo Jiuli did not expect that Doctor Jin could afford to take things up and let them go, and he did not become arrogant or arrogant because of his age.

He was able to put down his posture and consult with a junior like her, which shows that he is a good doctor who truly cares about his patients.

"Nan Zhu, apologize to Dr. Jin."

Nan Zhu was startled.

"master."

"Apologize."

Luo Jiuli's tone was very calm.

"yes."

Nan Zhu didn't want to make his master angry at this time.

"Doctor Jin, I'm sorry, I just-"

"I understand that the girl is eager to protect the master. I don't mind, and the girl doesn't need to take it to heart."

Doctor Jin smiled and waved his hand.

Luo Jiuli nodded to Nan Zhu, who stepped aside.

"Then give this suture needle to Dr. Jin. After I recover from my injury, Dr. Jin can go to the No. 1 Pot in the World to find me and discuss medical issues together."

When Doctor Jin heard this, he thought this was a rare opportunity.

You can't see Ling Xuzi himself, but it would be good to see his direct disciples.

"Then I would like to thank you, Miss Second."

"You're welcome, I have to trouble Dr. Jin to make more trips to the palace in the past few days. As for the injuries of the two people in the west courtyard and me, Dr. Jin should know how to tell the outside world."

Doctor Jin nodded.

He knew in his heart that the wound on Luo Jiuli's body was not enough to shed that much blood, let alone put his life in danger.

She mobilized troops and mobilized people like this just to deceive others.

As for him, he has already been involved in this royal battle. Now, protecting his own life is no longer the wisest choice. Only by relying on a big tree can he have a chance of survival.

The Ninth Prince's Mansion and the Duke's Mansion were the 'big trees' he chose this time.

"Second Miss, don't worry, I understand."

Just as the conversation between the two people in the room ended, messy footsteps came from outside the room.

Doctor Jin and Luo Jiuli looked at each other.

"The second young lady is seriously injured and is weak. It's best to close your eyes and rest your mind."

Luo Jiuli smiled in his heart, this Doctor Jin is really a wonderful old man.

Then, he closed his eyes and looked sick.

At this time, there were two uninvited guests outside the house.

"I'm here to pay my respects to the prince. Manager Qi is also here."

The visitor was also dressed in eunuch uniform, followed by two imperial guards.

Eunuch Qi glanced at the eunuch.

"Eunuch Li, if you don't guard the Changchun Palace for the Queen Mother, why did you come to the Nine Princes' Mansion?"

That's right, the person who came was none other than the eunuch serving the Queen Mother in the Changchun Palace, Li Wu.

It was also the Ninth Prince's Mansion that Li Wu sent Qiao Yue and Qiu Lian to.

Li Wu ignored Eunuch Qi's cynicism. In the palace, although Eunuch Qi was the general manager, he still had the final say in the affairs of Changchun Palace.

"Our family heard that the palace maid Qiulian was taught to have unclean hands and feet, so she came to the palace to arrest her and bring her back to the palace for trial."

"Hmph! Eunuch Li is really reserved when he speaks."

Eunuch Qi flicked his whisk.

In the entire harem, only Li Wu from the Changchun Palace dared to go against him. If we met today, if we didn't give him a good beating, wouldn't it be disrespectful to his status as the chief steward?

What's more, with so many people watching, it appeared that it was an internal fight between the two father-in-laws, but in reality it was a contest between the emperor and the queen mother.

"The maid Qiu Lian who taught you how to lead the palace not only had unclean hands and feet, but also secretly hid poison in the palace, failed to murder the prince, and actually assassinated the second young lady of the Duke's palace."

"Eunuch Li, is this the real reason why you sent two maids to teach you to enter the Ninth Prince's Palace on the orders of the Queen Mother?"

"Eunuch Qi, please be careful what you say."

Li Wu opened his eyes angrily.

"The Queen Mother has good intentions. She just wants to make up for the debt the royal family owes to the Ninth Prince over the years. She never thought that Qiulian would not be favored by the Ninth Prince because of her love, so she vented her anger on Miss Luo Er."

"It's not what we want to see if something like this happens."

"So, our family came here today to arrest Qiulian and bring her back to the palace for trial. We will give an explanation to Miss Luo Er and also give an explanation to the Duke's Palace."
