Chapter 28: Are you challenging my royal house?

~7 min read 1,228 words

"Got it." The responsible old doctor immediately beamed, his whole face breaking into a smile like a... chrysanthemum!

I'm just saying, you're a bit mischievous...

Bai Zhi chuckled and winked at the princess; the princess had just asked her to bring the doctors, so she immediately left the racetrack, rode hard, rushed back to the manor, and summoned those doctors.

Now it seems the princess truly has foresight.

"Our young master, his arm is broken, his leg bones are injured, his face is fine, but he has some internal injuries..."

"Princess, our manor only has this one young master."

These people are trying to take our manor's life!

……

After a while...

Jiang Yunchu suppressed a laugh and nodded with a solemn expression.

"This matter, I will demand an explanation from the emperor." She looked at the Cao family's young masters with a gloomy gaze, her face bearing an unfathomable, strange look.

The third prince was a bit panicked, how could they strike so hard?

Back then we agreed it would just be a lesson, to let the regent's manor suffer a dumb loss, and that would be the end of it.

The third prince glared fiercely at Cao the elder, his eyes conveying a message: "Look at the good deed you've done!"

Cao the elder is also dazed now; they usually strike with restraint, so how did this happen?

"No, slander, you dare slander the Cao family." This charge is something he cannot bear, otherwise he...

Just then...

Jiang Yunchu slapped the armrest of the chair, and in the wide racetrack, it produced a huge sound.

Impudent!

Are you challenging my royalty?

Royalty...

The regent's manor is also royalty.

The Ning surname is not something the Cao family can compare to.

The third prince would love to kill this fool; the Cao family is nothing, letting them be so arrogant is only because they're still useful.

"Continue the examination!" Jiang Yunchu looked at the person who had stopped speaking, and calmly told the doctors behind her.

Yes.

The doctors, each as if they had received a reward, each as if they had taken stimulants, began the examination, and each made a record.

Including the three Cao family young masters over there.

Of course, without the princess's order, the fate of the servants is none of their concern; don't look at those three young masters having no external injuries, but those few servants didn't have such good luck.

"Reporting to the princess, this is the treatment record of our young master and the three young masters." The old doctor from the manor walked over holding a few sheets of paper.

Don't ask where the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone came from...

When Bai Zhi met them, she had already prepared everything they needed.

This is the treatment record of the three Cao manor young masters.

Hmm...

In other words, the preparations were very thorough, making her very satisfied.

"Those physicians over there, come treat them and give me a record; I want to see whether the doctors in my manor really have this ability."

Jiang Yunchu didn't even look at the paper, she directly had Zi Su take it; Zi Su glanced at it once and then slipped it into her sleeve to keep it safe.

"Go!" The third prince, seeing the physicians hesitate, immediately spoke up.

He also wanted to see how the injuries of those four people were.

Moreover, the matter is now settled...

After the physicians took pulses and examined the injuries, the conditions they reported were no different from those of the doctors.

"Regent's manor." Jiang Yunchu stood up.

Since the third prince arrived, she hadn't been seen standing up, but now, holding the doctors' prescriptions, she stood up.

"Present." Everyone from the regent's manor, one by one, namely Ning Hanmo, now also clasped their fists and bowed their heads slightly.

"Let's go!" Jiang Yunchu said loudly.

"Yes!" The people behind immediately responded.

Step by step, Jiang Yunchu walked forward like that, leaving not a word behind, not even a glance for those people.

"Royal aunt, what are you doing?" The third prince, seeing the regent's manor's attitude, thought they were in trouble.

Jiang Yunchu didn't even turn her body, her face bearing a meaningful smile.

The attitude of the royal aunt, the third prince may not know.

But!

As she said this, Jiang Yunchu suddenly turned back, and everyone behind her also turned back, fixing their gaze on the third prince.

The third prince's attitude, I, the princess, know it; I just don't know whether your missing royal uncle will submit or not.

After speaking, Jiang Yunchu left without a hint of reluctance, leading the regent's manor people away in swift strides.

They returned to the manor.

The young lad stood before Jiang Yunchu, no longer the spirited air from the racetrack, feeling a bit uneasy and at a loss.

"Are you angry?" he asked cautiously.

Jiang Yunchu held a medical book; after the three young masters were treated in the manor, they were still sent to their respective homes.

Moreover, when sending them back, they also brought some gifts.

This matter arose because of the regent's manor; regardless of right or wrong, the regent's manor must show its stance.

"Otherwise you can scold me a few sentences, I won't speak." Ning Hanmo said, scrunching his little face.

But the person sitting in the chair still didn't utter a word, merely flipped a page of the medical book, indicating she was truly angry.

"Otherwise, hit me!"

Ning Hanmo grew a little anxious; he knew he had caused trouble, but...

"Hit you?" Jiang Yunchu set down the medical book, looking at the child who wasn't standing steady.

"Hit me, like that mother does with a willow switch—I won't dodge, won't cry, won't tell on you." Ning Hanmo's eyes lit up the moment she spoke, though a willow switch really hurts when it hits.

Forget it, it's my own fault; letting the stupid woman strike me a few times to vent her anger would be fine.

Jiang Yunchu glanced at his shifting eyes, then sighed helplessly.

"Ning Hanmo, do you know you're wrong?"

Ning Hanmo quickly nodded, "I know."

"Where did you go wrong?" Jiang Yunchu wasn't about to let him off; it was obvious this little troublemaker still didn't know what he'd done wrong.

"I shouldn't have caused trouble, I shouldn't have fought, I shouldn't have implicated the Wang Fu..."

His voice grew softer; before he just didn't want to anger the stupid woman, but now thinking it over, everything that happened today, he really did bring trouble upon himself.

"Do you think those are what you got wrong?" Jiang Yunchu asked irritably.

Su Xin and Zi Wu were accompanying Yue Yue, while Zi Su and Bai Zhi had been attending inside the room.

After hearing the Princess Consort's words, the two exchanged a glance—could it be that the Young Master's fault isn't these things?

What else could there be?

There's nothing left, right!

"Then where else am I wrong?" Ning Hanmo turned his head, the corners of his eyes already red.

The grievance in his heart, he didn't know who to tell.

After experiencing this day, he felt a bit at a loss; after all, he was still just a child.

Jiang Yunchu sighed, "Zi Su, bring a stool for the Young Master."
