Chapter 128 Second Wangzi Seeks Treatment [3]

Zi You looked at De Fei and smiled sincerely. Consort, its just like Second Wangzis situation. In others peoples eyes, he is lame. But in Chennus eyes, he is better than normal men because of his higher sense of justice and strength.

In fact, Second Wangzi had been here earlier. He had been hiding and eavesdropping on them behind a screen. At this point, he couldnt take it anymore and pushed his wheelchair out from behind the screen.

Youre finally out. Zi You looked at the handsome man sitting in his wheelchair and secretly smiled.

Actually, from the time Zi You entered Lianyun Palace, she knew that Second Wangzi was hiding behind the screen. Her auditory, visual, and observational abilities were superior to ordinary people now. She didnt need to use her spiritual power to clearly observe every little detail.

When De Fei was talking to Zi You, her eyes swept across the screen from time to time. Thats how Zi You knew that someone was there. Not to mention, when Second Wangzi heard De Fei crying, Zi You heard faint sighs.

Zi You looked at Second Wangzi and her expression deliberately turned cold. Although she properly curtsied to him, her voice was very cold.

Then she looked at De Fei and coldly smiled. What does consort intend? Chennu may be young, but is still engaged. Does consort want Chennu to be denounced by the public?

Although Great Yan was not as conservative as to have rumors flying if a man and woman met, De Fei letting an engaged woman privately meet Second Wangzi would certainly let those with ulterior motives denounce Zi You for being lonely and fickle.

She first had some unclear relations with Taizi and Third Wangzi. Now, she was engaged to Duke Yongnan Shizi, but was meeting Second Wangzi. Those high-society hypocrites would only follow the herd and throw rocks while she was down, regardless of the truth.

Second Wangzi saw that Zi You was angry, so he immediately bowed strenuously in his wheelchair. Please dont be angry, Mu Xiaojie. And please dont blame Mufei. It was all my idea. I wanted to meet Mu Xiaojie.

Men and women should maintain distance. Second Wangzi is a learned person and should understand that gossip is a fearful thing, right? Zi You coldly asked. Or do you think that you are wangzi and can do whatever you want?

Its not like that. Looking into Zi Yous eyes that were as deep as an ancient well, Second Wangzi was actually a bit panicked. It never occurred to him that a twelve-year-old little yatou had such a powerful aura.

On second thought, he was at ease. She could force Shangguan Lingluo to publicly apologize to her. Mu Zi You was, after all, not a usual xiaojie in the boudoir.

She could calmly reply under the imperial censors questioning. She could calmly handle his Fuwangs inquiries. How could a military familys descendant like this tolerate any slightest hint of misconduct towards her just because he was a wangzi?

Second Wangzi hurried to explain. Please dont misunderstand, Mu Xiaojie. I didnt intend to bully you with my identity. In reality, I, a wangzi, is not comparable to a common person.

A pained and helpless expression appeared on Second Wangzis face.

His face was already handsome. He was like Shangguan LingRan in that they were both evildoers. The difference was that Shangguan LingRan felt uninhibited and full of wicked charm. But Second Wangzi was cold and detached, giving people a feeling of loneliness.

At this time, a pair of double-lidded phoenix eyes contained resentment and sorrow. They seem to hold thousands of grievances, making people unable to reproach him anymore.

An average woman would have already softened her heart. But Zi You was already immune to anyone and any situation after the pain from her previous life. Even this Shangguan Boyu was not enough to arouse a trace of sympathy in Zi You.

She still looked coldly at Second Wangzi. She heard his magnetic baritone and saw his bitter smile. Common people have their brothers and fathers love. But I Forget it. You wont understand. In fact, I had Mufei summon you into the Palace because I want to ask you for a favor. I wonder if Mu Xiaojie can help me?

Zi You shook her head. Second Wangzi is exaggerating. Chennu is an underage guniang with no power or authority. Other than a little medical knowledge, Chennu has no other skills. What can Chennu help Second Wangzi with?

Mu Xiaojie is too modest. De Fei finally couldnt it and said. All the imperial doctors are helpless in curing Duke Yongnan Shizis leg. But there was an improvement in just three days under Mu Xiaojies treatment. How can such medical skills be considered minor?

Zi You answered calmly, Learning has its advantages and technique has its merits. Chennu specializes in bone trauma. Dont forget. Chennu formed a female medical team in order to help wounded soldiers on the battlefield. In fact, if its other ailments, Chennu is really incomparable to imperial doctors. Dont listen to other peoples exaggeration, consort. Chennu will be reprimanded as overestimating her abilities and arrogant.

But I want you to help me heal my paralysis. Second Wangzi anxiously blurted out.

He was really miserably tortured from the lack of feeling in the lower half of his body. Back then, his martial arts and riding skills were the best among the wangzis. He was also the most favored and valued by his Fuwang.

Now, these things were already far away from him. He could endure, but the main point was that he was unwilling to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair.

It was already miserable enough not to be able to walk. As a man, he couldnt even take care of his own bodily functions. That was where he felt the most humiliated. When he saw his brothers and sisters mocking gazes, he was so ashamed that he wanted to kill someone. As such, he secretly practiced martial arts. He didnt dare to slack off for even a day.

He could fly two meters up a tall tree or wall even in a wheelchair. But in the eyes of others, he was still a waste.

Zi You was naturally aware of his condition. She could even guess who put him in this predicament. Trees would be destroyed by the forest wind. His brightness overshadowed the nations heir Taizi. It would be strange if Taizi would let him continue shining brilliantly.

This Second Wangzi fell, but didnt learn his lesson. He actually had De Fei summon her into the Palace at such a sensitive time to cure his injury. Zi You was afraid that his injury wouldnt be cured before someone would harm him to death.

Such a brainless fellow really deserved to be harmed until he was in a wheelchair. If she cured him, Second Wangzi probably wouldnt be an opponent of that smiling tiger Taizi.

Zi You secretly shook her head, but Second Wangzi did not know what she was thinking about. He still jabbered on. My injury should be considered in the realm of Mu Xiaojies specialty. I fell off a horse five years ago. My back landed on a stone. Thats why I became paralyzed. At the time, all the imperial doctors said that if I rest and recuperate, I will get better. But three months later, those imperial doctors told me that I will never stand up again. Mu Xiaojie, I am not willing to sit in a wheelchair my whole life. So, I beg you to please help me.

Im sorry. Zi You shook her head in refusal. Second Wangzi, please forgive Chennu for being powerless. Your lumbar region has been injured too long ago. Also, even if you just injured it, in addition to medicine, your close cooperation is required. For example, you cannot be anxious or angry and pay attention to functional exercise. In addition, Chennu wants to advise De Fei and Second Wangzi to be low-key in the Palace. As for why, if consort and Second Wangzi still do not understand, then even if Second Wangzis paralysis is cured, other disasters will still come.

Second Wangzi was greatly shocked. His face changed colors and he looked speechlessly at Zi You.

De Fei nodded with feeling. Although she was shocked that at such a young age, Zi You saw problems so clearly and sharply, she still walked to the front of Zi You and said with gratitude, Thank you, Mu Xiaojie. You are right. I was too nave and foolish before.

Zi You still coldly shook her head. She looked secretly at the pondering and desolate Second Wangzi. She said lowly, Chennu is summoned into the Palace and no matter what, Chennu will not treat you. Please forgive Chennu, Second Wangzi. If there is nothing else, please allow Chennu to take her leave.

Second Wangzi was full of despair and regret and was dazed, but De Fei understood. Her face showed surprised and she wanted to speak.

Zi You gently shook her head. She stretched out her embroidered and beaded shoe and slowly wrote a line of words on the tiles. Then she immediately wiped them off. She deeply curtsied and left lightly and elegantly.

De Fei clearly saw the line of words. To cure the injury, dont publicize it. Do it in secret.

The thing that made De Fei stunned was that she didnt know how Zi You could write and erase a line of words on the tiles.

De Fei did not know that the tip of Zi Yous shoe was dipped in a layer of cinnabar. With her qinggong, she could leave no traces when she walked on snow. The toe part of the show was also curved. If she didnt use force, the cinnabar would not spill onto the ground.

De Fei excitedly patted the still-pondering Second Wangzi. She leaned in and whispered in his ear, Mu Xiaojie agreed to treat you, but she said that it must be done in secret. Son, is it wrong to publicly summon her into the Palace like this?

Second Wangzi nodded and whispered to De Fei, Mufei, leak the news out that Mu Zi You doesnt know how to appreciate favors. Second Wangzi wanted to marry her as Zhengfei, but she refused. Dont say anything else. I will do the rest.

Second Wangzi was not stupid, but he was tortured by his suffering and merely changed his temperament these few years. This could be understood. He was a high-above wangzi favored by his Fuwang. He became lame and was despised by everyone and lost his Fuwangs love and attention.
