Huichun Hall is divided into three parts. The outer hall is where ordinary patients receive medical consultations and buy medicines. Entering through the side door is the inner hall.
The inner hall is only half the size of the outer hall, and is kept clean and spotless. There are also several rows of wooden medicine cabinets here, which contain many rare and precious medicinal materials.
There were several chairs in the inner hall, and a long, wide and sturdy table in the middle.
After Liu Laoshi was carried into the inner hall, he still kept twitching, foaming at the mouth more and more, his face was red, his pupils were dilated, and his moans were getting weaker and weaker. He was indeed dying.
Ling Xiao felt a little scared when he heard this movement, and subconsciously moved closer to Ling Jingshu.
Ling Jingshu gently held Ling Xiao's hand and comforted her in a low voice: "Axiao, don't be afraid. Doctor Wei should be here soon."
Ling Xiao was ashamed of his timidity and hummed in a low voice.
As the general steward, Han Yi has to take care of the affairs inside and outside the Huichun Hall and has no time to accompany everyone here. He ordered the two guys to take care of Liu Laoshi here, and then walked out again.
Ling Ji looked around and praised in a low voice: "This is my first time coming to Huichun Hall. It's better to meet than to be famous. This place is really different from other medicine halls."
Not to mention anything else, just the guys here. All of them are hard-working but don't talk much, and they don't have the problem of flattering others and putting down others. Although they knew that their group was from a privileged background, they did not deliberately flatter them. The two guys who took care of Liu Laoshi didn't show any disdain, and took care of him very carefully.
Ling Jingshu also took in all this and became more and more curious about the yet-to-be-shown Imperial Physician Wei.
There were footsteps outside the inner hall.
... ...
Is it Imperial Physician Wei here
Ling Jingshu's expression changed, she stood up and looked over.
What caught his eye was not a man, but a young girl wearing a purple dress.
The girl came in with only two maids. As soon as she entered the inner hall, she took off her curtain hat.
Under the willow eyebrows are a pair of charming eyes, a straight nose, plump red lips, a tall figure, and a plump and healthy figure that is rare among girls. The thin dress is soft and docile, showing off the girl's beautiful figure.
The men present couldn't help but take a second look.
As soon as they met, Mrs. Jiang recognized the person and hurriedly stepped forward to greet her: "Ms. Jiang has met Princess Fumin."
Princess Fumin smiled and responded casually: "No need to be polite, get up and talk quickly." However, her gaze passed past Jiang and fell on the girl wearing a bamboo-green dress.
After entering the inner hall, Ling Jingshu also took off the curtain hat. The beautiful appearance is visible at a glance.
That Liu Jiaoniang didn't tell lies. This girl was indeed born well... She was only a little bit worse than herself.
A hint of jealousy flashed in Princess Fumin's eyes, and she asked Jiang, "Why are you here today? Is that girl a young lady from the Ling family?"
... ... Jiang secretly smiled bitterly and sighed.
Princess Fumin was known to be cunning and domineering, but she also had a distinguished status and could not be offended by others. The ladies in the capital were invariably polite to her when they saw her, and they also developed her arrogant temper.
It's a pity that Ling Jingshu's charming appearance makes it useless no matter how low-key and cautious she acts.
If you don't stir up trouble, trouble will come automatically.
Mrs. Jiang cheered up and said with a smile: "That's right, she is the cousin of the fifth room of the Ling family, the ninth in the family, and her maiden name is Jingshu." After saying that, she turned around and winked at Ling Jingshu: "Ah Shu, come here and see Princess Fumin."
The meaning of that glance was quite profound.
To sum it up, it can be summed up in these words: This woman is arrogant and cannot be offended.
Ling Jingshu understood Jiang's hint and smiled noncommittally. She will not take the initiative to cause trouble, but if someone is contemptuous and intentionally insults her, she will not accept it.
Returning to this life is to take revenge and grudge. It’s not just for the sake of being miserable like in my previous life.
"Little girl Ling Jingshu, I have met Princess Fumin." Ling Jingshu took two steps forward, gathered her skirt and saluted.
Her boudoir etiquette was taught by the strictest nuns. Her manners were elegant, polite and impeccable. She looks like a dignified and polite lady.
Only when provoked for no reason will his gentle mask fade away, revealing his sharp edge.
Princess Fumin has no discernment, so naturally she cannot see what is so powerful about Ling Jingshu. I thought scornfully in my heart, Liu Jiaoniang is really useless. Such a delicate and frail young lady from the Ling family speaks slowly, how can she be considered eloquent
However, this Ling Jingshu is indeed good-looking... She came to Huichun Hall today, obviously because of the reputation of Imperial Physician Mu Wei.
Thinking of this, Princess Fumin became even more unhappy. She deliberately ignored Ling Jingshu, turned around and smiled at Jiang, "After all, we haven't seen each other for half a year!"
Jiang suppressed the uneasiness and anxiety in her heart and said yes with a smile.
Princess Fumin was about to continue speaking when she saw from the corner of her eye that Ling Jingshu had stood up straight.
... ...
Arrogant and rude!
He clearly didn't take her as the princess seriously!
Princess Fumin's expression changed, and she snorted coldly: "Miss Lingjiu, I didn't ask you to be polite!" The unkindness in her tone was obvious.
How strange! We have never met each other before, where does this inexplicable hostility come from
There are many rules in Huichun Hall, and not everyone can enter this inner hall. Miss Liu San was blocked from the door. Princess Fumin drove straight in without anyone stopping her. It was obviously not her first time here...
It seems that, like Miss Liu San, she also misunderstood that she was an admirer of Imperial Physician Wei, and that's why she became so hostile.
But there is no way to explain this kind of thing.
You can't just say in front of everyone, "Don't worry, I've never met Imperial Physician Wei, and I have absolutely no bad thoughts about him"!
Ling Jingshu thought about lightning and made up her mind in just a few moments. No matter what, you can't give in weakly and be looked down upon and bullied by others:
"I grew up in Dingzhou, and my grandmother who taught me the rules told me that when you salute your elders, you are not allowed to get up without permission if the elders have not spoken. When you salute to peers of similar age, it is out of politeness and there is no need to be deliberately rigid. Could it be that the rules in the capital are different from those in Dingzhou?"
Princess Fumin: "..."
Ling Jingshu still looked gentle and courteous, with a smile on her lips and said unhurriedly: "This is our first meeting, if I have any bad etiquette, please ask the princess to point it out."
What a sharp tongue!
Princess Fumin was choked and speechless. She suddenly became angry and said softly and forcefully: "Okay, I will teach you the rules today..."
The door on the other side of the inner hall was pushed open at some point.
A young man stood at the door, frowning slightly: "Huichun Hall is a place for treating patients. If you want to quarrel, go out."
