Chapter 330: Chapter 330: Can’t Save You Chapter 330: Chapter 330: Can’t Save You “Please wait, Miss Physician, I will go and report your arrival.”
He glanced at Ya Molian standing next to Lin Caisang, then went into the Princess’ Mansion.
“Seems like the news of my assassination attempt is known to all in the Princess’ mansion”, Lin Caisang said mockingly with a smile to Ya Molian.
“Probably not just them.”
Ya Molian snorts, giving a cursory glance to a few other guards.
“What do you mean?” Lin Caisang, not understanding, asked in a hushed tone.
“Didn’t you notice the increased number of patrol guards in Jianan City as we were passing by earlier?” Ya Molian reminded her.
The increase in patrols was probably due to the assassination attempt on Sang in the Princess’s Mansion yesterday. The emperor must have been concerned about the Elder Princess’s safety. Otherwise, even under the emperor’s feet, there would not be guards every ten steps in the city.
Such a sight would make us a laughingstock to foreigners!
“How would I know that? Yesterday, I came directly from the entrance of the imperial palace by carriage, I never even saw the patrol guards on the streets.” Lin Caisang said, looking incredibly innocent.
She didn’t linger on the streets for long yesterday, merely treating a scholar whose face had been ruined. As for anything else, she truly didn’t have a clue.
“So all of this is because of me.”
“Not exactly for you, but because an insignificantly small assassin could sneak into the magnificent Princess’s Mansion and freely take a life. It’s no surprise the emperor was angered.” Ya Molian told her.
“Did you save anyone on the streets yesterday?”
Suddenly, he voiced the question that had been bothering him.
Had this girl not shown her medical skills in public, who would notice a young female physician? She would at most be considered an inexperienced frog in the well. Who would want to harm her then?
Lin Caisang felt she was even more wrongly accused than Dou E.
“Just before revealing the imperial exam results, I heard that a scholar’s face had been ruined. I felt it was a pity, so thought I could do whatever I could to help, and gave him a face cream. What’s wrong with that?”
What a frightening world it must be when you can get yourself in trouble for saving someone.
He was truly at a loss over this girl.
“Sang, this is the emperor’s city. If you want to involve yourself with the royal family, every move you make is under scrutiny. You can’t just behave recklessly.”
“I didn’t think it would turn out , I’ll be careful in the future,” Lin Caisang responded.
If she had known…actually, even if she had known, she would still have saved the person. Otherwise, what was her medical training for? Was it just child’s play?
Shortly after, the steward of the Princess’s Mansion hurriedly came over. Bowing and nodding to Lin Caisang, he ushered her and Ya Molian inside.
Because Ya Molian was a man, he couldn’t meet the Elder Princess, so he waited in the front courtyard. Lin Caisang was led to the main courtyard, where the Elder Princess was.
“Eldest Imperial Brother, this can’t be true, right?”
The Second Prince stood outside the Elder Princess’s room. He heard the mansion guard report that the physician from yesterday had arrived and was still in a daze.
“Alright, since she has arrived, you must not act rashly, Second Imperial Brother. Aunt’s health is of paramount importance. If Father should catch you causing trouble, not even I will be able to save you.”
The Eldest Prince looked at his brother, cautioning him solemnly.
Among all his brothers, the Second Prince was the most reckless, disregarding all when he was in a playful mood, never considering the consequences.
