Medical Consort, the Prince is Pretending to be Dumb Again

Chapter 7

“There’s also Nanny Li,” Mo’er answered, pouting. “Nanny Li is getting some medicine for you, Young Miss.”

Nanny Li was Madam Ruyi’s dowry servant, and she had raised Liu Shimei. It was reasonable for her to stay.

Liu Shimei’s eyes brightened at the mention of medicine. “Ask her to wait. Bring a pen and paper over.”

Mo’er obediently took a pen and paper.

Although Liu Shimei was a modern person, she had inherited the original owner’s beautiful penmanship. With one hand, she held a small slip and wrote a list of herbs on the paper.

Mo’er asked curiously, “What is this? Why does it look so similar to the medicine prescription?”

“It’s not a prescription, it’s a list. Give it to Nanny Li, ” said Liu Shimei with a faint smile. “Ask her to buy these herbs for me. I’ll make my own medicine.”

The original owner was well-read, but she did not have the talent for medicine. However, she had medical talent, and it was not difficult for her to shine in the medical field!

Mo’er asked in confusion, “Can’t we just get the family doctor to prescribe medicine? Moreover, since when did you know how to make medicine?”

“Do you think it’s safe to use the medicine in the Grand Chancellor’s Residence?” Liu Shimei endured the pain and did not answer the second question.

She lay on the pillow and closed her eyes. “Let Nanny Li buy the medicine. Come back quickly and wash off the ointment that you applied to me last night. From now on, all food, including yours and Nanny Li’s, must be tested for poison by me before they can be consumed!”

There was a saying: A dragon trapped in a shallow pool was toyed with by a shrimp. Since Liu Yan’er could strike once, who could be sure that she would not strike a second time? Who could guarantee that other people in the residence who had a conflict of interest would not take the opportunity to lay their hands on her?

Mo’er came to a realization. “Young Miss is right! But… Young Miss, when did you learn to test for poison?”

Liu Shimei wiped her eyebrows and pouted. She opened her eyes and looked at her. “I can also treat illnesses, so hurry up and go!”

Although she was beautiful, when her brows furrowed, she looked a little fierce. Mo’er quickly left when he met that irrefutable gaze.

Liu Shimei took a breath.

It was necessary to ask Nanny Li to buy medicine and make birth control pills for herself. She was also confident that the medicine she had concocted would be more effective and safer for the wounds on her back.

When she thought of birth control pills, she could not help but think of Huangfu Lingyao…

Liu Shimei felt that there were two suspicious points about last night’s incident.

First, did Liu Yan’er find Huangfu Lingyao? Although that idiot was easy to fool, he was good-looking! With Liu Yan’er’s viciousness, she should be more willing to find a man with no status, no status, and ugly to ruin her!

In the current situation, even if the other party was a fool, he was still a Prince. As a result, she could still be a Princess.

Second, if Liu Yan’er did not find Huangfu Lingyao, how could he have appeared there and been drugged? So, what happened to the original man that Liu Yan’er targeted?

Thinking of Huangfu Lingyao, Liu Shimei could not help but think of that fool’s face.

It was such a pity that he was a fool despite his delicious looks!

When Mo’er returned, she saw that Liu Shimei was not sleeping but was lying there in deep thought. She could not help but pout and say, “I don’t understand, Young Miss, why did you go to the palace and beg His Majesty to let you enter the Royal Mansion as a concubine? What if His Majesty doesn’t grant you a marriage, but really wants you to be a concubine? What should we do then?”

Liu Shimei casually replied, “I had no choice. This is the best path I can choose.”

Mo’er was stunned.

She was not stupid. She could complain, but it did not mean she could not figure out the details. “That’s true. Fortunately, His Majesty bestowed the marriage. But Young Miss… Although you’re still a Princess, you have such immense talent. Even ten silly princes can’t match up to you!”

As she spoke, she placed the basin of water in her arms on the small table at the side and prepared to apply the ointment on Liu Shimei’s back.

“Actually, I don’t want to be the Crown Prince’s wife.” Liu Shimei helplessly curved her lips.

Even if the Crown Prince successfully ascended to the throne, so what if she was the Empress of the country?

She had to endure sharing her husband with others and help her husband manage his mistresses… In your dreams!

“Ah?” Mo’er was at a loss.

Liu Shimei thought to herself that this girl was loyal, so she could let her guard down a little. “Besides, Father can’t tolerate me anymore.”

The fact that the legitimate daughter lost her virginity before marriage was the dark history of the Liu family. If Liu Shimei did not find a way out, her life in the Liu family would only become more and more difficult.

She continued, “Although King Dun Yu is a fool, it’s better for me to enter the royal family than for the Grand Chancellor to marry me off to some old man in order to balance the power… It’s better to be a wife than to be a concubine or just a housekeeper, right?”

“Thirdly, there is no mistress in the residence of King Dun Yu now, and the master only has the intelligence of a five-year-old. I will not be manipulated by others if I take care of him like a son.”

From last night, Huangfu Lingyao might be a fool, but at least he was obedient. This way, she could fight for her own rights through Huangfu Lingyao.

As long as he did not restrict her, she could find a job to survive.

After she had some understanding of the medical industry in the Shu Dynasty, she returned to her old profession and became a doctor. As she slowly developed, she could even get capital from Huangfu Lingyao to open a medicine shop or a clinic to run her own business!

In summary, even if she were to be a concubine in the royal family, as long as she could please Huangfu Lingyao, it would be much better than staying in the Grand Chancellor’s Residence!

Only then did Mo’er come to a realization. “So that’s why you’re holding back first. With this… You will get twice the result with half the effort?”

Liu Shimei smiled.

It seemed that this girl was quite quick-witted.

As they were talking, a loud shout suddenly came from outside of Leihua Courtyard. “Sister Fairy! Sister Fairy!”

As soon as she heard this unique address, Liu Shimei knew that it was the Silly Second Prince!
