Chapter 440: Surprise, All Surprises

Ning Qingshan was indeed out of control and getting angry.

Initially, when a doctor said her leg was broken, she still had other hopes, but after that, one after another said her leg was broken, and her emotions were almost at the point of an outbreak. After the last old doctor finished taking her pulse, he rubbed his beard with force and was just about to express his long discourse, to show that he was a respected doctor.

“Is my leg broken?” Ning Qingshan asked with a solemn face, her complexion both nervous and expectant.

“The young lady’s leg bone is already broken, and someone needs to come to set the bone, but the old man is not professional in setting bones.” The old doctor was old, and his knowledge was also extensive. This person was injured, and immediately asked so many doctors to come, it could be seen that this young lady was certainly not an ordinary person, some work he dared not take on.

If this were not handled well, he would have to give up his life and property, so the old doctor’s words were extremely evasive.

“So, it can’t be set?” Ning Qingshan asked calmly.

“It’s not that it can’t be set, it may be set, but the effect may not be the best. If the young lady really needs it, the old man or… can try.” The old doctor felt that his words were very appropriate; these words came out one by one, and even if the setting was not good, he would naturally have these words to resist, and nothing would happen.

“Get out, get out! You can’t set it, you’re here to deceive people, get out!” Ning Qingshan’s calm complexion suddenly shattered, she picked up the teacup beside her, and threw it at the old doctor, screaming, her appearance like an evil ghost, her face ferocious and terrifying.

The old doctor didn’t expect that the Young Lady from a Good Family, who had been peaceful and gentle just now, would suddenly become possessed by an evil ghost, and mimic the cursing of a market hag. He was caught off guard and was drenched by a cup of tea, luckily, this tea had been placed aside for some time, so he didn’t feel hot, but being pointed at the nose and cursed like this, and having tea poured all over him, no one would feel comfortable.

“Alright, alright, alright, I won’t treat your illness, you should ask someone else!” The old doctor also had a temper, he stood up angrily, picked up his medicine box, wiped the tea from his face, pushed away the old woman who was trying to pull her, and was so angry that his voice also unconsciously raised.

Outside the room, there were two or three doctors who were studying the prescription. Seeing the old doctor come out with tea water all over his head, with a few tea leaves still stuck to his eyebrows, they didn’t know what had happened for a moment, and they all froze, looking at the old doctor.

“Doctor Chen, what happened? You are…” The old doctor was also respected among this group of doctors, and a doctor couldn’t help but ask.

“Everyone, I’ll take the first step. I thought she was a Young Lady from a Good Family, but she’s even worse than a hag in a market, humph!” The old doctor felt ashamed and devalued, wiped off a piece of tea from his head, and didn’t say much to anyone. He went straight outside, called for the carriage to go up the mountain, and no longer stayed in the temple, and immediately left.

He was also a famous doctor in the Capital City, although he was not as good as the imperial physicians in the palace, but among the doctors outside, he was also well-regarded. Today, a cup of tea water was poured over him like this, how could he still have the face to stay, thinking of this Third Young Lady of the Duke’s Mansion, who was such a shrew, he felt increasingly distressed.

This matter actually fell upon him!

Not to mention the old doctor’s indignation as he went down the mountain, Ning Qingshan here was even more angry and smashed all the items around her, Caifen and Feilian didn’t escape her punches either. She seemed to have gone crazy, completely disregarding the decorum of the Duke’s Mansion’s young lady, crying and shouting and making a scene.

Nurse Luo, who rushed in after hearing the news, also received several slaps from her.

“Young lady, young mistress, this is still outside, you must be careful, do you still want your reputation?” Nurse Luo, in a hurry, tightly embraced the Ning Qingshan who was going crazy, and urgently cried out, on the other side, Caifen and Feilian also came over to help her hold Ning Qingshan, the three of them worked together, and finally suppressed Ning Qingshan.

“Reputation, I don’t need reputation, it’s already come to this, what’s the use of reputation!” Ning Qingshan cried loudly, if she wasn’t dragging an injured leg now, she would have run out a long time ago, she felt as if she was about to explode inside, her leg was broken, her leg was actually broken, how could the Royal Family marry a concubine with a broken leg.

All her efforts over the years were in vain, so many years of planning, from a very young age, she knew that she must become strong, otherwise anyone could bully her, in order to become strong, she could pay a lot.

She couldn’t remember her childhood memories, she only knew that when she arrived at the Duke’s Mansion, Ning Ziyan and Ning Yuling were the most noble young ladies of the Duke’s Mansion, while she was only an adopted daughter, an orphan girl, to put it bluntly, she was not even as good as the maidservants in the mansion, so she had to seek the wholehearted care of others.

Madam Ming had her own daughter, how could she be sincere to her, so she poisoned Ning Xueyan when she was a child, just to make Ning Xueyan recover more slowly, and then she further relied on Madam Ling’s subordinate, framed Madam Ming once, and then moved out of Mingshuang Courtyard, fawned on the Old Madam, and had an ambiguous relationship with Ning Huaiyuan, all in order to live well in the Duke’s Mansion, and live like a real young lady.

But even so, Madam Ling only treated her well on the surface, and Ning Huaiyuan was neither close nor distant to her, she felt that she had worked hard, but still didn’t get any return, she was very angry in her heart, for a period of time, she felt that nothing was interesting, later she knew that her identity was the granddaughter of Grand Tutor Ya, the cousin of Noble Consort Ya, and also Noble Consort Ya and Grand Tutor Ya’s meaning, and they also intended to marry her to the Third Prince, only then did she regain her spirit.

After that, Noble Consort Ya gave her a tip, which gave her the opportunity to help the Third Prince, Grand Tutor Ya had her retreat to advance, went to the Nun’s Abbey, and sought a good reputation. For a moment, everyone praised her, and even she herself felt that she would certainly be the future Third Prince’s Consort, and Cousin was also deeply in love with her.

Moreover, after that, she learned that she was actually the Princess of the Previous Dynasty, of noble status, and not really the granddaughter of Grand Tutor Ya, but the Grand Tutor Ya’s Mansion actually didn’t discover it, and another person appeared around her mysteriously, from time to time helping her solve some troubles, making her really feel like a Royal Family Princess.

High above, extremely noble, she was the real princess, even the princesses of the New Dynasty now couldn’t compare to her, she was both proud and refined.

But who would have thought that things would take a turn for the worse, first, there was an abnormality with Cousin, she felt that his attention was more focused on Ning Xueyan, which made her feel a crisis, and then, when she was dealing with Ning Xueyan, she was repeatedly defeated, and finally, she lost composure in the Imperial Selection in the Imperial Palace, sliding from the position of Principal Wife to Concubine.

She had originally thought that with her complexion, and then seeking the help of that person, she could certainly be ranked in the Central Palace after Cousin succeeded, and become the most noble woman in this world, but unfortunately, at this time, her leg was broken, and how could the world accommodate an Empress with a broken leg.

If she couldn’t marry the Third Prince, and couldn’t become the Empress, how could she live up to her supreme identity as a Princess of the Previous Dynasty, how could she live up to her many years of planning, she felt that her efforts over the years were all in vain, this was also the reason why Ning Qingshan broke the jar and broke it, making a scene.

“Young lady, it’s not necessarily bad if the leg is broken, as long as it’s set properly, nothing will happen, and it won’t be seen in the future. Isn’t there an imperial physician in the palace who is skilled in this technique? This old servant heard that there was a Noble Person in the palace before, who fell and broke her leg on the artificial hill, and later she was also set properly, and nothing happened.”

Nurse Luo held Ning Qingshan, endured the “thump, thump” sounds of her being hit on the back, and earnestly whispered to persuade, in the Hanshan Temple, there was not only the Duke’s Mansion. Just now, the old doctor went out all the way, cursing all the way out, and the words spread to the outside, it was not pleasant to hear. If anything else happened, the young lady’s reputation would really be ruined.

“Is it really possible to set it well?” This hit Ning Qingshan’s weakness, the effect was immediate. Upon hearing that there was still hope, Ning Qingshan immediately stopped making a scene, she abruptly stopped, regardless of wiping her tears, her eyes looked at Nurse Luo with a dark longing, hoping to get a more precise answer from Nurse Luo.

“Yes, young lady, the old servant has already sent someone to find the Third Prince, and ask the Third Prince to go to the palace to bring this imperial physician here to set the bones for the young lady. Rest assured, young lady, the Third Prince and Noble Consort Ya know that the young lady has had something happen, and will certainly bring the imperial physician here.” Nurse Luo answered affirmatively.

Upon hearing that Nurse Luo had already sent someone, and they might be on their way now, Ning Qingshan relaxed completely. She had heard about that matter in the palace before, so there was indeed such an imperial physician in the palace. Such a big thing had happened to her, the Third Prince and Noble Consort Ya knew, and they would certainly be extremely worried, and it was right to let the imperial physician come immediately.

“Nurse, I’m sorry, I really had no hope just now, and then…” Ning Qingshan was crying softly at this moment, looking at Nurse Luo, whose face was bruised with two patches, and feeling remorse and sadness, which was evident in her words, “Nurse, I… I’m sorry to you, you… you just hit me to vent your anger!”

“Young lady, how could this old servant blame the young lady, as long as the young lady is alright, this old servant is willing to do anything.” Seeing that Ning Qingshan was not making a scene anymore, Nurse Luo released Ning Qingshan, straightened up, and immediately felt that every part of her body was hurting, after all, she was old, and Ning Qingshan had been hitting and biting her like crazy just now, there were also a few places on her wrist that were bitten and bled.

“Caifen, find some ointment and put it on Nurse. Nurse is all for this unpromising master, you can rest assured that as long as I am here in the future, I will certainly not let you suffer. I… I will eventually repay you.” Ning Qingshan had recovered the appearance of a Young Lady from a Good Family at this time, looking at Nurse Luo’s bruised appearance, she was so sad that she shed tears.

These words were extremely touching, Caifen and Feilian and Nurse Luo were all moved to tears, just feeling that the young lady’s heart was not bad, she had only lost control just now, and would do things that hurt her own people.

They thought that only if the Third Prince received the news, he would certainly send the imperial physician over, and perhaps the Third Prince would also personally come to visit their young lady, this was not only Nurse Luo’s idea, but also Ning Qingshan’s idea, so for a moment, she also smiled, first, she let the doctors outside apply some wound medicine for her, and also prescribed a prescription, on the one hand, waiting for the Third Prince to bring the imperial physician to visit Ning Qingshan.

What they didn’t expect was that the Third Prince, Ao Mingyu, was not taking care of himself, how could he have time to look after Ning Qingshan, not to mention going into the palace to ask for an imperial physician. The Third Prince’s Mansion was also filled with smoke and roaring flames, and it was clear from the fire that it couldn’t be extinguished in a short time.

Surprise, it was all a surprise, a series of surprises…
