Chapter 1872: Prince Ping
The Crown Prince immediately went forward and asked with concern,” Seventh Imperial Uncle, what’s wrong with you?”
Prince Ping kept shouting,” Aiyo, Crown Prince, it’s fine. I... Aiyo, this is an old problem of mine. The old illness that he had suffered from in the past would hurt from time to time. Aiyo... This kind of pain just needs to be endured.”
The Crown Prince looked at Prince Ping suspiciously, his expression revealing concern and worry. He said,” Seventh Imperial Uncle, I’ll immediately get someone to call the imperial physician to take a look at you!”
However, Prince Ping waved his hand and said,” There’s no need, Crown Prince. The imperial physicians have seen me before, but they only treated the symptoms and not the root cause. Fortunately, this back pain only happens occasionally. It’s nothing. The Crown Prince doesn’t have to worry!”
At this moment, Lin Yuelan suddenly interrupted. She chuckled and said,” Your Highness, why do you need to find a doctor? Have you forgotten that I am also a doctor?”
When the Crown Prince heard this, he immediately reacted. He slapped his forehead and replied with a smile,” That’s right. How could I forget about Princess Guguo? In this world, the person with the best medical skills is none other than you, Princess Gu Guo.”
At this point, he looked at Prince Ping and said with a relieved expression,” Imperial Uncle, let Princess Guguo take a look at you.”
Prince Ping hurriedly refused,” It’s just a small problem. How can I trouble Princess Gu to help?”
Lin Yuelan smiled and said,” Prince Ping, you’re wrong. In the eyes of doctors, there are only patients, no status!”
After saying that, she did not wait for Prince Ping to react and grabbed his hand. Anyone with a discerning eye would know that she was taking his pulse.
Although she said she was taking a pulse, she was actually using his special ability to make Prince Ping’s lumbago real.
Prince Ping’s face turned pale, and cold sweat dripped down his temples. He could not help but cry out in pain,” Ouch...” However, he felt very strange in his heart. He was clearly pretending to be sick, so why did it turn into real pain?
Could he tell him that he was delaying the time to enter the palace?
Could he tell him he was giving Yuwen Xuhong time to prepare?
Could he tell him that he was also involved in this incident?
This was a serious crime of treason. No matter what, they could not let them bring this assassin to the Emperor and even let Lin Yuelan use some means to make him confess.
If he didn’t succeed, he would die!
He was already in the same boat as Yuwen Xuhong!
Prince Ping said stiffly,” No, I have an old illness. It’s lumbago. My lumbago sometimes acts up and sometimes doesn’t.”
Just as the Crown Prince was about to retort, Lin Yuelan beat him to it and said,” Crown Prince, Prince Ping does indeed have an old illness. There’s no doubt about it.” She then turned to Prince Ping and said sternly,” Prince Ping, I can treat your old illness as long as you trust me.”
Prince Ping’s expression was still stiff as he smiled and said, “The princess’s medical skills are also unquestionable.”
He couldn’t deny the fact that Lin Yuelan’s medical skills were the best in the world.
Lin Yuelan nodded and said,” That’s good!”
After saying that, she took out a black pill from her sleeve and said very seriously to Prince Ping,” Then please take this pill, Prince Ping. I guarantee that the medicine will cure the illness, and there will be no relapse!”
Prince Ping did not dare to take it. He looked at the black pill and said suspiciously,” Really... Is it really that effective?” But then he refused, “Still... There is no need. The old illness in my body rarely relapses. Then don’t waste the princess’s precious pills!”
