Chapter 214 Too Difficult to Utter (1/2)
“Please give a second, Your Highness. I’ll write a list of herbs and medicine which we need.”
In an emergency situation like this, Lin Mengya did not have time to calculate how much of each ingredient she needed.
She only had time to list down the names of the herbs and medicine, so Long Tianhao could hurry on to obtain them first.
The surround physicians looked at her in amazement as they saw her writing down the prescription.
Those ingredients were all powerful toxins that could kill a person!
“Please forgive me for being ignorant, Princess Yu. In your prescription, there were at least sixth types of powerful poisons. If Master Qin were to even ingest one dose of it, he would surely die.”
The main physician who was at a loss of what to do a moment ago was now looking to be contemplating deeply.
Lin Mengya shot them a glace and said coldly, “If you have a better solution, I’m ready for a discussion.”
.
Lin Mengya’s response shut up the physician’s mouth and the mouth of all others.
It seemed that Lin Mengya was the only one who could save Qin Mo’s life at this moment.
They were merely there to assist her from the sideline.
Qin Yu, however, had been gazing intently at this lady all this time.
He had been carefully observing her bizarre acupuncture method and the dubious prescription she wrote down.
All in all, this Princess Yu truly stood out from the others. She was an entirely different league of physician.
If he had guessed correctly, her method of treatment was to use poison to fight against poison.
Although she had advanced maturely, apparently this was the most appropriate method to treat Qin Mo now.
“General, there are a few girls at the entrance, asking to see Princess Yu!”
The soldier in charge of sounding the whistle came in and reported to Lin Nansheng, who glanced at his younger sister, and realized that she seemed unaware of what was happening.
“Elder Brother, would you please let them in quickly. They are my maidservants. I’ve completely forgotten about them.”
Lin Nansheng nodded and instructed the soldier to let the maidservants in.
Just as Lin Mengya was busying herself, her maidservants hurried over to her.
“Master, please do not go so fast next time. We almost died from chasing after you!”
Baizhi threw herself into Lin Mengya’s arms. Her cheeks were flushed obviously from waiting too long in the cold.
“Baizhi, let go of Master. Your body is so cold, what if you make Master catch a cold from you?” the voice of Baiji sounded.
She had brought with her a big warm cloak as she entered, and she came up to Lin Mengya and put the cloak on her.
“That’s very attentive of you, to be thinking about me at all times.”
Everytime, Baiji would be the one who was thinking about her, being the most attentive one among the rest.
If not for Baiji, Lin Mengya thought she would not be able to stay composed all the time.
“Please do not say that, Master. I’m your maidservant and it was only right that think of all these things.”
Baiji was levelheaded and sensible while Baizhi was witty and lively.
All the people’s attention was on them the moment they appeared.
What a Princess Yu, whose maidservants were such pretty girls too.
“Greetings of peace to Master Lin!”
Baizhi bowed courteously to Lin Nansheng when she spotted him with the corner of her eye who was standing behind Lin Mengya.
Lin Nansheng had a good look at her and recognized that she was indeed the maidservant who was serving his little sister since she was young.
However, she had turned into a beautiful young lady.
“Are you not…”
“Master Lin, our Master had given me the name Baizhi. This is Baiji, and Baishao is the one at the back. Lastly, the cold beauty is Baisu. The four of us are the princess’ maids who serve her.”
Baizhi introduced herself and her company to Lin Nansheng as they came closer to Lin Mengya.
Lin Mengya looked around and realized that two of her company was missing.
She held on to Baizhi and asked, “Where are Qinghu and Xiaoyu? Why are they not here?”
“Don’t be anxious, Master. They bumped into the prince and accompanied him into the capital city to get the medicine.”
At Baiji’s words, Lin Mengya breathed a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness that Qinghu and Xiaoyu were safe and sound, otherwise, she would be anxious over them.
It was an agonizing wait.
With the help of the four maidservants, Lin Mengya felt that things had gotten easier.
She leaned into her elder brother as they sat, surrounding the fireplace. It felt like they were back in the old days when they were still kids.
“Do you remember, Elder Brother, that we used to do this when we were younger?”
Now that the younger sister was married and was therefore another man’s wife.
Nevertheless, those memories seemed like they just happened yesterday. They were etched clearly on his mind.
“Of course I remember. Back then, father was not at home. That woman took away the coal used to warm us in the winter. Eventually, Baizhi was the one who sneaked some silvery ashes which preserved our lives from the cold of winter.”
Baizhi smiled shyly. The only thing on mind at that time was to protect her young masters.
Although she was eventually badly beaten up when she was found out, she thought it was all worthy of the effort.
At the very least, her young masters were not frozen to death.
“Indeed, if not for Baizhi’s care and your protection, I won’t be able to survive until now.”
From that winter onwards, Elder Brother no longer suffered under the hands of Shangguan Qing.
Thanks to her elder brother’s lucky start that Lin Mengya was not treated badly afterwards too. However, after her elder brother grew up and followed Father to the fight in the army, she returned to the miserable days under the hands of her stepmother.
She was thankful that Elder Sister Yue Ting was there to keep watch over her.
