Chapter 331: Chapter 331: Can’t I Leave? Chapter 331: Chapter 331: Can’t I Leave? After yesterday’s incident, his Second Imperial Brother was severely scolded by their father, the Emperor, and was also punished by being ordered to copy the Imperial Guidance one hundred times. He suspected his Second Imperial Brother wouldn’t have a peaceful day for a month.
Even he could only copy five pieces of the Imperial Guidance in a day. For someone as restless as his Second Imperial Brother, copying three would be the maximum.
“As for the punishment of copying the Imperial Guidance, make sure no one does it for you. If our father the Emperor finds out, the consequences would be unimaginable.”
He gave it a thought and again reminded him.
Getting someone to copy the Imperial Guidance would definitely be something his Second Imperial Brother would do. He had to keep a close eye on it, so as not to let their father scold him again. That would be really humiliating.
The Second Prince sneered, reluctantly responding.
Isn’t it just copying the Imperial Guidance? Could a few words really stump him?
What he really wanted to know now was whether the female physician was injured or not. The nanny who was arrested confessed that she had stabbed the female physician, so if the woman wasn’t dead, she must be seriously wounded.
If she really was alright, it would mean that she was quite skilled, and perhaps she could even cure his aunt’s illness.
“Don’t just acknowledge it now and forget later.”
The Eldest Prince saw his dismissive attitude, and felt his heartache for this irresponsible younger brother.
He had never seen a brother who was so reluctant to learn. As an older brother, he had to clean up his brother’s mess every day, leaving him no time for other affairs.
Though they, the brothers, were all addressed as “prince”, they were still young. He, as the eldest, was only sixteen, and the Second Imperial Brother was just fifteen this year.
He was conferred the title of prince last year, and the Second Imperial Brother was conferred this year.
“Have you remembered all that?”
“I remember, Eldest Imperial Brother, you are so naggy, just like our mother.” The Second Prince frowned, speaking in a low voice.
The Eldest Prince: “…”
“Just go back, don’t hang around here anymore, it irritates me seeing you here!” He waved his hand, out of sight, out of mind.
However, the Second Prince wasn’t one to simply be dismissed. He revealed a flattering smile as soon as he heard that his older brother wanted him to leave, and clung to the Eldest Prince’s arm.
“No, Eldest Imperial Brother, I have to wait for the news! I need to know whether that female physician is really capable. If she isn’t…”
The Eldest Prince, hearing his words, frowned at him.
“Haven’t you already been reprimanded by our father the Emperor yesterday? In my opinion, he lightened your punishment too much. One hundred imperial teachings aren’t enough, you should…”
“No, no, Eldest Imperial Brother, I will leave, isn’t that okay?” The Second Prince, hearing from his older brother that the punishment might increase, quickly slipped away and vanished.
The Eldest Prince, looking at his retreating figure, couldn’t help but smile out of exasperation. However, thinking about how his aunt was still bedridden, his smile faded immediately, he turned to the guard standing to his side.
“Lingqing, do you think this female physician can cure our aunt’s disease?” He asked somberly.
“I…I wouldn’t dare to guess.” Lingqing lowered his head and gently replied.
The Elder Princess had been ill for so long. If any physician could cure her, would the Emperor need to issue imperial notices? Also, there were still plenty of imperial doctors in the palace who were at a loss, weren’t they?
How could he possibly know whether or not the female physician could cure the Elder Princess’s disease?
