No, I was just a concubine, how did I become the queen?

Chapter 409 The mystery behind this

The Fourth Master was mentally prepared, so he wasn't too disappointed this time. He recovered after a night's rest.

When Lin Mingyan got up in the morning, he was already busy in the tent in the office next door.

Dujuan brought her toiletries and told her the latest news while she was brushing her teeth.

"I heard that in addition to Princess Wenxian being seriously injured, the Princess of Zhi County was also seriously injured."

"Oh? How is she?" Lin Mingyan spat out the water in her mouth and asked Du Juan about her injuries.

She frowned, and the image of Zhang Jia speaking for her yesterday suddenly appeared in her mind, and she felt a little sad.

Du Juan said solemnly, "Master, the Princess of Zhi was stabbed twice. The wounds are very deep and she is bleeding profusely. Her condition is very serious now."

"I heard that many imperial doctors went to see the patient, but they all shook their heads, saying that the injury was very difficult to deal with and that it was hard to say whether the patient could survive it."

When Lin Mingyan heard this, her heart sank suddenly, a look of worry appeared on her face, and her feet unconsciously hesitated in place.

It’s not that she is a saintly person and wants to save everyone.

I just think Zhang Jia's injury is really strange, so I'd better go and see her to put my mind at ease.

Her hand movements unconsciously quickened, and the originally meticulous washing process became much simpler at this moment.

After quickly eating a few bites of breakfast, he hurried to the tent of Prince Zhi with Dujuan.

The princes' tents were all in about the same place, and Lin Mingyan quickly got there.

The atmosphere in Prince Zhi's tent was just as solemn and depressing as that in Wen Xian's tent yesterday.

Many imperial physicians looked serious, some discussing the patient's condition in low voices, while others were preparing medicinal materials with frowns on their faces.

The servants stood aside with their heads bowed, not daring to make a sound. A suffocating silence permeated the entire tent.

Everyone knew that Zhang Jia's injuries were extremely serious. She even walked very carefully and did not dare to make any noise.

When Lin Mingyan stepped into the tent, Zhang Jia's maid, who came with her as a dowry, hurried to greet her.

Her eyes were red and swollen, and tears kept rolling down like beads with broken strings. Her originally pretty face was now filled with sadness, as if the whole world had collapsed.

"Fourth Lady, you're here." She sobbed, her voice nasal, her body trembling slightly, and she seemed a little unable to even salute.

"Our master can't entertain you. She...she is too badly injured."

After saying that, he sobbed loudly and covered his mouth again.

Lin Mingyan looked solemn as she listened carefully to the maid's detailed description of Zhang Jia's injuries.

When they learned that he had been stabbed twice in the back, with the wounds already torn and bleeding, the imperial doctors were all in a state of confusion and helplessness.

She pondered for a moment and said, "I happen to have someone over there who's proficient in suturing knife wounds. Let her try."

He then ordered someone to quickly invite Shisan Niang.

When the maid heard this, a spark of hope instantly ignited in her eyes. She fell to her knees with a plop and kowtowed to her repeatedly.

"Fourth Lady, I have no way of repaying your kindness. If I can save my master, I will serve you like a slave."

Her voice trembled slightly with excitement, her gratitude was beyond words, and she touched her forehead to the ground, unwilling to lift it for a long time.

She turned and said anxiously to the servant beside her: "Go and find Prince Zhi."

There are some things that a maid like her cannot decide, and she needs the Prince of Zhi to make the decision.

But Prince Zhi went out early in the morning and did not even set foot in the princess's tent.

Fortunately, this servant was left here specially by him, so he should be able to find the person if he goes to look for him.

When the servant heard this, his eyes flickered slightly, but he quickly lowered his head and replied "yes" respectfully, then he bent his body and tried to go out.

Lin Mingyan was a meticulous person and extremely sensitive to changes in her surroundings. Seeing that the servant looked strange, the suspicion in her heart instantly increased.

She said calmly, "Wait a minute, no need to bother."

"The prince has many things to do, and he's not a doctor. The imperial physician should make the decision here, so there's no need to bother him."

"It just so happens that you, Doctor Zhang, are here too. You were there when Thirteenth Lady treated the princess's wound yesterday."

"Doctor Zhang, you are very experienced. You may also assist us. With the two of you working together, the princess will surely be able to escape danger and recover soon.

Doctor Zhang hesitated for a moment, then made the decision after remembering his friendship with Princess Zhi.

"Fourth Lady is absolutely right. Saving lives is the most important thing." Imperial Physician Zhang said hurriedly with a bow.

He returned from the princess's place yesterday and was sent by the Empress Dowager to treat the Princess of Zhi.

It was also suggested to Prince Zhi that he could ask the Fourth Master for someone to do the stitches, but Prince Zhi was hesitant and was nowhere to be found in the morning.

He couldn't rely on his status as an imperial physician to go to the Fourth Master, so he could only try his best to treat him with medicine.

Now that the Fourth Lady came to him for help, he naturally would not refuse.

The servant had wanted to leave in a hurry to find Prince Zhi, but when he saw the situation had changed, he stopped abruptly.

His face showed a slight embarrassment and hesitation, so he could only put the matter aside for the time being.

Lin Mingyan looked at him deeply with a sharp gaze, then turned away.

Afterwards, he turned his attention entirely to saving Zhang Jia.

While she was discussing the treatment plan with Doctor Zhang in a low voice, she was directing the maids to prepare the necessary items, dealing with the emergency calmly.

Since someone doesn't want Zhang Jia to live, she must rescue her!

Zhang Jia was in good health and had a strong will to survive. After her wound was sutured and she drank the medicine prescribed by Doctor Zhang, her fingers began to tremble slightly.

Then, she slowly opened her eyes, with a look of confusion and weakness in her eyes.

Doctor Zhang, upon seeing this, couldn't help but exclaim, "What a miracle! She managed to survive a whole day and night of blood loss and wake up so quickly. The princess is truly blessed!"

Everyone's originally tense nerves finally relaxed, and a look of joy appeared on their faces, glad that Zhang Jia had come back from the gates of hell.

Zhang Jia was still very weak, but her mind was still clear, and she listened to the maid's description.

She sighed slightly and said weakly to Lin Mingyan, "Fourth sister-in-law, I'm really grateful for you this time."

"The prince brought me to this grassland with great difficulty. I had hoped to have a pleasant time, but who could have imagined that I would encounter such a disaster."

Her voice was soft, but full of regret.

When she heard the news that the prince was going to leave the border, she naturally thought that the prince would bring Wu with him, but she did not show her disappointment.

Unexpectedly, the prince took her with him and left Wu in the mansion.

I didn't expect her luck to be so bad!

The speaker has no intention, the listener has the heart.

As Lin Mingyan listened to Zhang Jia's words, an idea suddenly flashed in her mind.

The doubts that had been hidden in my heart were now gradually pieced together like a puzzle.

It turns out that the reason why Prince Zhi suddenly ignored Wu is because of something strange!
