Chapter 201 Little Princess
Xiao Han greeted, "Big brother, sister-in-law."
"Alright, alright... there's no need to be so polite," Princess Yu replied with a slight smile.
Then she turned around gracefully and instructed the attendant standing to the side: "Quickly serve tea to the King of Qin and Miss Long, and bring two more chairs over."
Upon hearing their voices, Prince Yu opened his eyes and turned his head to look in the direction Xiao Han had come from.
"Seventh brother, you've arrived."
Xiao Han stepped forward and asked with concern, "Brother, are you feeling any better?"
Prince Yu smiled faintly: "I feel much better today, and the wound is not as painful as it was the previous two days."
After speaking, Prince Yu glanced at Xiao Han and then frowned slightly: "As for you, you are also injured now. Why don't you stay at home and rest and recuperate? Why are you running around everywhere? There's no need to rush to visit me in just a day or two. You can come when your injuries have improved."
A maidservant hurriedly brought over a chair, and Xiao Han sat down next to Prince Yu: "Brother, don't worry, my injury is no longer a problem."
As he spoke, Xiao Han turned to look at Long Chuqing behind him: "Brother, Chuqing had something to do today and went out. I happened to be planning to come and visit you, so I came with her! I thought I could have her take your pulse and see how your injuries are recovering."
Prince Yu looked at Long Chuqing standing to the side, smiled slightly, and said politely, "It's too much trouble for Miss Long to make this trip. Thank you for your trouble."
Long Chuqing smiled and shook her head: "No trouble at all." She stepped forward, placed three fingers on Prince Yu's wrist, and began to carefully examine his pulse.
After a thorough examination, it was found that his injuries had basically stabilized after two days of rest, and he would recover quickly as long as he continued to rest.
Liu, the Imperial Physician, has already returned to the Imperial Hospital. Now, only Imperial Physician Pan remains in the Prince's residence.
Long Chuqing asked them to find Imperial Physician Pan and asked him for the prescription they had written for Prince Yu.
Soon after, Physician Pan arrived with the prescription. Long Chuqing took the prescription and examined it carefully. After a moment, she looked at Physician Pan and said, "I apologize for being so bold, but I have a few suggestions that I don't know if I should say."
Physician Pan hurriedly said, "Please speak freely, young lady."
Physician Pan knew that the woman in front of him was the one who had saved Prince Yu from the brink of death, so he naturally had no objection to her wanting to see and modify the prescription.
So, Long Chuqing pointed to several medicinal herbs in the prescription and told Imperial Physician Pan that adjustments and changes were needed.
She explained to Physician Pan in a clear and logical manner the reasons for each change needed to be made, and the expected medicinal effects after the changes. She explained the reasons for each change to the physician.
As Long Chuqing recounted her story, Imperial Physician Pan listened attentively, nodding in agreement from time to time.
After Long Chuqing finished his analysis, he couldn't help but exclaim, "This is truly ingenious! I've practiced medicine for many years, and I never imagined that this prescription could be modified in such a way! I've learned a lot today."
Just then, Prince Yu's daughter came running up, clutching a piece of candy tightly in her little hand. She ran up to Xiao Han, held her hand high, and said in a childish voice, "Uncle, here you go, candy."
Seeing this, Xiao Han quickly reached out and took her, then gently patted her head with his other hand, praising her with a smile, "Good girl, thank you, Rou'er."
Then, she happily toddled towards Long Chuqing, and when she got close, she grabbed Long Chuqing's clothes and swayed from side to side, while raising her little face and calling out, "Sister, sister..."
Hearing the shouts and the tugging of his clothes, Long Chu instinctively looked down to check. When he saw the adorable little guy in front of him, he couldn't help but smile.
She handed the prescription back to Physician Pan, then slowly squatted down.
With a gentle smile on her face, she said softly, "Hello!"
The little princess stretched out her small hand, palm up, and smiled sweetly: "Sister, here you go, candy."
Seeing this, Long Chuqing smiled slightly and gently took the candy from her hand: "Thank you. By the way, what's your name?"
The little princess blinked her bright, watery eyes and said in a childish voice, "I, my name is Rou'er."
Long Chuqing touched her rosy little face and said with a smile, "Rou'er is such a good girl. But you can call me Auntie."
However, the little princess shook her head firmly, trying hard to organize her thoughts. Although she stumbled a bit, she expressed her meaning clearly: "Pretty, you should call me sister, pretty, sister..."
Upon hearing the little princess's innocent words, everyone couldn't help but chuckle, and laughter filled the entire courtyard...
He helped Prince Yu adjust the prescription, played with the little princess, and stayed at Prince Yu's residence for about an hour.
Because Long Chuqing still needed to give the Second Young Master Cheng a follow-up examination, she stepped forward to explain the situation to Prince Yu and Princess Yu before preparing to leave.
Princess Yu said regretfully after hearing this, "It's all in such a hurry. I was just saying that you and Seventh Brother should have dinner at the manor before you go back!"
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, but I have already arranged to go for a follow-up visit with the patient today, so I won't bother you any longer."
"Alright then, in that case, you must come earlier next time! I will definitely treat you well then. Don't come after noon like today, and don't even stay for dinner."
Upon seeing this, Prince Yu asked, "Seventh brother, are you going back too?"
"Yes, brother, I'll come to visit you another day."
Upon hearing this, Prince Yu turned his gaze to Long Chuqing, who was standing beside him, his eyes shifting slightly, and a smile appeared on his lips.
Then he joked, "Seventh brother, Miss Long left in such a hurry to go for a follow-up visit to her patient. Now that you don't have anything urgent to attend to, why don't you stay and chat with your brother, have dinner together, and then go back?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Han's face showed a hint of embarrassment. "No, I'll come and chat with you another day when I have time."
After listening to their conversation, Long Chuqing turned to Xiao Han and said, "That's right! You're still injured and it's really not good for you to move around. You should stay here and keep the prince company!"
Xiao Han stared at Long Chuqing with a resentful look: "My injury is no longer a problem."
Long Chuqing said helplessly, "Pretending to be strong."
Upon hearing this, Prince Yu and Princess Yu exchanged a glance and both smiled knowingly.
After seeing Xiao Han and Long Chuqing to the courtyard gate, Princess Yu returned to sit beside Prince Yu.
She glanced at her daughter playing nearby, then turned to Prince Yu with a smile: "Your Highness, Seventh Brother has always been aloof and indifferent, especially towards young ladies, but his attitude towards this Miss Long is quite different."
Upon hearing this, Prince Yu sighed deeply: "Alas... it's true what they say, a son is like a tree that cannot be kept at home!"
Upon hearing his sighing and lamenting insights, Princess Yu couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.
"How can you talk about your own brother like that? But a woman as beautiful as Miss Long is hard to find in the entire capital. Even I can't help but take a second look at her, let alone you men!"
"Rest assured, my heart belongs only to the Queen Consort," Prince Yu quickly stated.
