Chapter 307 Thorough Consideration!
"Alright, take the medicine back. Also, let me tell Madam and Prince Wang that this prescription was given to them by Imperial Physician Zhao. His son obtained it by chance while he was out, and I found it intriguing, so I asked for it and made it into pills. Unexpectedly, it suits your prince's needs perfectly. Strictly speaking, Prince Wang's gradual improvement is also thanks to Imperial Physician Zhao and his son."
"Yes, Miss will definitely pass on the message."
Rongyue asked, somewhat puzzled, "Miss, this prescription was clearly prepared by you yourself, so why do you say it was given to you by Imperial Physician Zhao? And why do you say that Young Master Zhao found it from outside?"
"What do you know? How old am I? The Crown Prince's illness has been treated by countless imperial physicians, and no amount of treatment has been effective. But my prescription worked immediately. It's fine for a few days, but if it continues for several months, wouldn't I be making enemies for myself?"
Upon hearing this, Granny Yu nodded and smiled, "Miss's concerns are very valid. If word gets out, and Miss gains the title of a divine physician, wouldn't that be a public slap in the face to the Imperial Hospital? Moreover, if this continues, it will be difficult to explain to Director Zhao."
Mu Xin Nuan lowered her eyes, "That's exactly right. People's words can be a fearsome thing. If one person tells ten, ten tell a hundred, and then it tarnishes Master's reputation, then it will be troublesome."
Rongyue tilted her head and thought for a moment, "As the saying goes, a good teacher produces a good student! This also shows that Lord Zhao's medical skills are so good that he can teach a student like Miss."
"Haven't you ever heard the saying, 'Teach your apprentice, and you'll starve yourself'?"
"Uh?"
Mu Xin Nuan smiled and said, "After all, I am a woman. If I have too much fame, it will not be a good thing. Moreover, I don't need to offend so many people for the sake of an empty reputation! My master has taught me everything he knows, so I should think more about him."
"Yes, ma'am."
Mu Qing entered, glanced at her young mistress, then stood to the side with her hands at her sides, remaining silent.
Mu Xin Nuan understood, dismissed the others, and turned to ask, "But has something happened to Mu Xin Yao again?"
"Miss, the Second Miss has suddenly fallen into a coma. The royal physician has already examined her and said it's due to worry. He advised her to rest and recuperate."
"Resting quietly? Hasn't she always been quiet? Could it be that during her confinement, who would dare to gossip about her?"
"Miss, no one else went, except for the third young lady from the second branch of the family."
"Mu Xinyi?"
"Yes, Miss. The Third Miss has visited the Second Miss twice. I heard that she was talking with her just yesterday."
"Hmm, such deep sisterly affection indeed. Does Second Aunt know?"
"They probably don't know. I heard that this third young lady always goes there secretly."
"This Mu Xinyi is quite interesting." Mu Xinnuan smiled faintly. "However, this is fine too. Anyway, she is just a concubine's daughter. Second Aunt has always disliked her. Now, she has a legitimate reason to punish this concubine's daughter."
"Miss, do you mean to report the Third Miss's frequent visits to the Second Miss to the Second Madam?"
"Of course! But we need to get it to my second uncle first."
"But Miss, given how much the Second Master dotes on the Third Miss, I'm afraid he won't punish her severely."
"That's exactly what we want—for him not to punish her too severely. That way, Second Aunt will have something to say, won't she?"
Rongyue's eyes darted around a few times before she finally understood, and she immediately went to make the arrangements with a cheerful smile.
Soon, Mu Changping and Madam Yang in the west courtyard received the news, and naturally they had to call Mu Xinyi over and give her a scolding.
Mu Xinyi was quick-witted and immediately realized that someone must have seen her. But in the past few times, no one from the main branch had blamed her. How come her own side got the news?
Although Mu Xinyi is young, she is not stupid and is good at reading people's expressions.
Soon, she figured it out. No matter how she thought about it, it was her stepmother, Jin, who was secretly plotting to punish her!
Hmph! Mu Xinyi naturally apologized profusely to her father, but deep down she hated Jin Shi to the core.
Her birth mother, Yang, naturally blamed Jin for this.
For the next few days, Mu Changping stayed in Jin's courtyard. This was extremely rare for him.
Just as Mu Xin Nuan had expected, there was no movement from the second branch of the family. Mu Xin Yi did not receive any punishment. On the contrary, she came to the first branch of the family to pay her respects every day, and she looked quite well.
The fact that Mu Xinyao fainted could not be kept secret. No matter how much Mu Chang'an disliked her, she was still his daughter, and he couldn't just ignore her.
As luck would have it, on this very day, Mu Xin Nuan was accompanying the old man to visit Mu Xin Yao and see if she had recovered after several days of rest.
Mu Xinyao's attitude was more humble and pitiful than ever before.
Mu Xin Nuan had to admit that she was very impressed with her transformation.
You should know that this kind of attitude from her elders can win her a lot of affection.
After the visit, the topic of when he fainted inevitably came up again.
When Mu Xin Nuan asked about this matter, Mu Xin Yao only tried to cover it up and refused to mention it again, but Qing Hong, who was standing to the side, seemed to be unable to hold back any longer.
"Please, sir, do justice for the second young lady!" Qinghong knelt down with a thud.
The old man frowned. "What exactly happened? Explain yourself."
"Reporting to the old master, on that day, the second young lady was copying the 'Admonitions for Women,' and everything was as usual, without any problems. But who knew that the third young lady would come later and ridicule the second young lady so much. In the end, she even said that the madam had angrily canceled the second young lady's marriage. She even said that she would find a merchant to marry the second young lady."
At this point, Qinghong was already in tears.
"As you know, sir, the second young lady is born out of wedlock. If her engagement is broken off, what good will come of it when she comes to marry someone else? In addition, the third young lady spoke so convincingly that she even mentioned that the Jin family had already sent people to their door. The second young lady was so angry that she couldn't take it and fainted."
At this moment, Mu Xinyao, who was sitting on the bed, already had red eyes. She covered her face with a handkerchief, looking as if she had suffered a great injustice but dared not speak out.
Mu Xin Nuan suddenly realized, "She actually came here?"
Mu Chang'an was taken aback. "Anuan, you know about this?"
The old man also looked astonished, "So, Mu Xinyi really was here? Why didn't Anuan stop her?"
