Chapter 755: Chapter 755: Heading Back Home Chapter 755: Chapter 755: Heading Back Home Princess Consort Pu looked surprised, “This girl, she just said she was afraid to return to the General’s Mansion, why did she change her mind so quickly?”
Prince Pu was also confused, “Exactly! Qinger kept making a fuss about being afraid of the War Prince and refused to return to the General’s Mansion. Why is she suddenly quiet about going back to the General’s Mansion now?”
Tang Jinghao, who was lying on the bed getting medicine applied by a doctor, couldn’t help but interject, “Father, Empress Mother, are you getting senile? Qinger must have heard the name of the brothel, felt unhappy, and went home to complain to her sister.”
Prince Pu puffed his beard and glared, “You little rascal, how dare you speak to your father and Princess Consort like that?”
Tang Jinghao, indifferent, said, “It’s true, isn’t it? Just because you’re old doesn’t mean you have to deny it.”
Prince Pu warned, “Keep talking nonsense, and see if I don’t beat you.”
Princess Consort Pu tugged at his sleeve, “Alright! Alright! Stop arguing with our son; let’s go check on Qinger.”
“This brat is becoming more and more disrespectful.”
Although Prince Pu spoke harshly, there was not a trace of anger on his face.
“The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree,” Tang Jinghao quipped from the bed, applying medicine and retorting at the same time.
Prince Pu frowned at Princess Consort Pu, “This brat’s mouth is getting too sharp.”
“Forget about him, let’s hurry and see Qinger.” Princess Consort Pu pulled Prince Pu’s arm, leading him out.
“Hey! Father, Princess Consort, you pulled me out of bed early in the morning just to leave ? That’s hardly fair,” Tang Jinghao called out from his bed toward the door.
“Young Master, stop shouting. The Prince and the Princess Consort have already gone far,” the doctor applying the medicine couldn’t help but say.
“Ow! Go gentle.” Apparently, the doctor touched a wound while applying the medicine, suddenly causing Tang Jinghao to grimace in pain.
The doctor’s face turned pale, and he immediately knelt on the ground, bowing repeatedly and saying, “Young Master Tang, please spare my life, it was not intentional.”
“Fine, fine. Get out,” Tang Jinghao straightened his clothes and lay back on the bed, impatiently saying.
Last night, he had come back late and had hardly slept for four hours when he was awakened by Princess Consort Pu’s shrieking. Now, not only was his body aching, but due to lack of sleep, his head began to hurt as well. He needed to get some proper rest.
“But, Young Master, I haven’t finished applying your medicine!” the doctor said, uneasy and worried he might get in trouble with Prince Pu if he didn’t fulfill the task given by the prince and princess consort.
“If I told you to leave, just leave. Stop trembling and don’t disturb my sleep, or you’ll regret it,” Tang Jinghao said as he covered himself with the blanket, ready to sleep.
The doctor stood there with a troubled expression.
After a while, Tang Jinghao was clearly asleep, snoring loudly.
Young Master Tang liked his nights out, and the doctor was aware of it; he reluctantly packed up his medical kit and quietly left.
Outside, Prince Pu and his wife stopped Situtu Qinger.
“Qinger, just this morning you told your grandmother that you were afraid to go back to the General’s Mansion, fearing the War Prince might forcibly take you to Prince Pu’s Mansion. How come you changed your mind after just the time it takes to drink a cup of tea?” Princess Consort Pu asked, holding Situtu Qinger’s hand concernedly.
“Qinger missed her mother and wanted to go back and visit.”
