Great, it's just a lackey, we're saved!

Chapter 30 Who do you think you are? To think you know people from the Valley of Divine Healers!

The Empress was puzzled when she saw that Princess Jiang Yueli had not replied for a long time.

"Yue Li?"

The eldest princess came to her senses and said calmly, "Mother, I appreciate the kindness of the Lady of Zhenyuan Marquis, but I will not go to see Wan Qianliang."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Jiang Yueli in surprise.

Such a rare opportunity to meet the geniuses of this blessed land, yet the princess refused?

The Empress's expression was inscrutable, as if she was pondering the meaning behind Jiang Yueli's words.

Changpei, the eldest aunt who was serving her, observed the Empress's expression.

He then advised, "Your Highness, since it is the Lady of Zhenyuan Marquis's kind intention, you should go and see her."

"Her Majesty the Empress is constantly worried about your injuries, and has not been able to eat or sleep well for the past three years."

Jiang Yueli remained expressionless, revealing nothing.

Zhou Wei found it amusing!

If the Empress is truly worried about Jiang Yueli, given her status as the Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it wouldn't be impossible for her to ask the people from the Divine Doctor Valley to treat Jiang Yueli.

Even if we can't invite a genius like Wan Qianliang, any of his disciples would be better at medicine than the imperial physicians in the palace.

But it's been three years, and I've never heard her mention the Valley of Divine Healers.

Now she's playing the role of a loving mother?

"Your Majesty, my princess need not go to see Wan Qianliang."

Zhou Wei's sudden voice caused everyone present to frown.

Even Jiang Yueli looked at her in surprise!

He secretly thought to himself, "This is bad."

My heart starts pounding whenever this girl speaks.

I have a feeling something big is about to happen!

As expected, Changpei was very displeased when she saw that the princess did not reply, but instead a palace maid jumped out from beside her.

With a stern face, she said, "Where did you come from, palace maid? How dare you be so ignorant of etiquette? Do you even have the right to speak here?"

Shen Shuqing was thrilled to see Changpei and Zhou Wei going up against each other!

Let's fight! Let's fight!

It would be best if a fight broke out soon!

Shen Shuqing had often heard of Changpei's name in the Zhenyuan Marquis's residence.

Everyone says that Empress Jian Xiyan is a gentle person, as serene as a chrysanthemum, who does not compete or fight.

The concubines in the harem all admired her!

However, since she is the empress, she must have some dignity.

This long pendant belongs to the person who helped Jian Xiyan establish her authority in the harem!

She was originally a lowly palace maid, but thanks to Jian Xiyan's help, she became the head maid of Kunning Palace.

Changpei was extremely loyal to the Empress!

He couldn't stand anyone who disrespected the Empress.

Now Zhou Wei has stepped forward to respond, urging her to seize the opportunity to help the Empress establish her authority.

Chang Pei had a cold and arrogant expression.

He coldly stared at Zhou Wei, waiting for this unruly girl to kneel down and beg for forgiveness.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Wei smiled and said, "Aunt Changpei, you are a palace maid, and so am I. When Her Majesty the Empress asks a question, it is only natural that my eldest princess should answer."

"But if you ask a question, does the Princess have to answer it for you? Who do you think you are?"

Changpei's expression froze, and her eyes widened.

Clearly, she had never seen a palace maid dare to talk back to her face like this before!

"How dare you speak so disrespectfully before the Empress!"

Zhou Wei retorted without backing down: "You're being insolent! Who do you think you are in front of my eldest princess, daring to speak so loudly?"

The scene immediately became awkward, and the Lady of Zhenyuan Marquis opened her mouth wide, unable to utter a word for a long time.

She's really seen the world this time!

Everyone says that Princess Jiang Yueli is arrogant and domineering, and seeing her today, it's certainly true.

They even dared to defy the Empress!

Thinking of this, Qiu Fangyun broke out in a cold sweat.

Thank goodness...

Fortunately, she took the initiative to bring Shen Shuqing to apologize; otherwise, if the princess had held a grudge, things would have been terrible.

Shen Shuqing watched the show with great excitement.

She prayed in her heart that Zhou Wei would go even crazier and become even more violent, so that the Empress, who was the most irritating, would take action and execute her!

What a lowly servant girl, so utterly ignorant of her place!

Neither side would back down, so the Empress couldn't help but look at Jiang Yueli.

Normally, Jiang Yueli would have reprimanded her palace maid.

But this time...

The eldest princess sat there leisurely, even having time to play with her fingernails.

It seems that he was not satisfied with the newly dyed nail polish.

The Empress frowned slightly and could only say helplessly, "Alright, Changpei, you may leave!"

Feeling aggrieved, Changpei glanced at the Empress, and seeing the Empress's signal, silently retreated to the side.

Zhou Wei sneered and retreated to the side of the Princess.

"Yue Li, why are you unwilling to meet Wan Qianliang?"

“Wan Qianliang comes from the blessed land of Divine Physician Valley. I have heard that Divine Physician Valley has a unique skill called Purple Illumination Nine Needles, which may be able to heal your injury.”

Jiang Yueli refused, saying, "Mother, I know my own injuries. Unless I have a miraculous encounter, there is absolutely no possibility of them being healed in this lifetime."

"Therefore, we will not disturb the Marquis of Zhenyuan's residence. Let that prodigy focus on treating the Duke of Qi's heir."

"Furthermore, the people of the Divine Doctor Valley are aloof and arrogant. It must have cost the Marquis of Zhenyuan a great deal to be able to invite Wan Qianliang to help treat his son."

"If I go again, wouldn't I be making the Marquis of Zhenyuan's mansion do two favors? I can't afford to accept the favor from the Divine Doctor Valley."

After Jiang Yueli finished speaking, she leaned back in her chair, looking completely at ease.

The Empress thought about it and realized that it made sense.

If the Divine Healer Valley intervenes, the cost will be enormous.

I wonder what conditions the Marquis of Zhenyuan used to persuade Wan Qianliang to come out of seclusion?

Just as Jiang Yueli was about to help Qiu Fangyun refuse.

But then a clear, cold voice rang out: "Your Majesty, this matter is not as complicated as the princess thinks."

“When Wan Qianliang comes to my Zhenyuan Marquis’s mansion, treating one person is still treatment, and treating two people is still treatment.”

"Not to mention the princess wanting to come, even if the other princes in the palace wanted to join in the fun, Wan Qianliang would agree."

The speaker was Shen Shuqing, her face carrying a faint air of arrogance.

It seems that arranging a bunch of expert appointments for Wan Qianliang is an extremely easy thing!

And having Princess Jiang Yueli treat him was also a favor from her!

Of course, Zhou Wei and Jiang Yueli both knew that Shen Shuqing was not lying.

As Shen Shuqing's devoted follower, Wan Qianliang was expected to see hundreds of patients a day.

Even if Shen Shuqing slapped him twice, he would still think it was a reward from his junior sister!

However, those who were unaware of the inside story looked at Shen Shuqing with somewhat strange eyes.

Qiu Fangyun couldn't stand these strange looks.

Anger surged within him immediately!

boom!

"Mother?!"

Shen Shuqing covered her face and looked at Qiu Fangyun in shock.

"Mother, why did you hit me?"

Qiu Fangyun's hands trembled with anger: "Tell me why I hit you?"

"It is an honor for our entire household that Young Master Wan has come to the Marquis of Zhenyuan's residence!"

"If it weren't for his connection with your sister Shuya, would he have given face to our Zhenyuan Marquis's mansion?"

"Shuya hasn't said anything, yet you dare to spout nonsense here, trying to get work for Young Master Wan. Who do you think you are?"

Shen Shuqing was so badly beaten that she saw stars and her eyes were bloodshot.

"Mother! Who told you that Wan Qianliang came to the Zhenyuan Marquis's residence because of Shen Shuya?"

Qiu Fangyun sneered and said, "Of course, it was Young Master Wan who said it!"

“When I asked him yesterday, he said it himself, because he was entrusted by the eldest daughter of the Shen family to treat the heir of the Duke of Qi.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Shuqing almost laughed out of anger.

"Mother! I am the legitimate daughter of the Shen family!"

That's true.

But Qiu Fangyun looked disgusted, even somewhat disappointed.

"Your sister, Shuya, has been the legitimate daughter of the Shen family for over a decade; who in the capital doesn't know that?"

"You were born in the poor and remote Qingzhou, and you haven't even learned the rules, yet you dare to say that you know the geniuses of blessed lands?"

Shen Shuqing was completely dumbfounded, not knowing how to refute Qiu Fangyun.

Qiu Fangyun was now convinced that Wan Qianliang had come to the Zhenyuan Marquis's residence because of Shen Shuya!

Alright, you bunch of blind fools.

Just wait!

One day, when my identity as the direct descendant of the Divine Doctor Valley is revealed, I will definitely slap you all in the face.

Shen Shuya?

Who does she think she is, to be able to mobilize thousands of people?

Without me, Shen Shuqing, your Zhenyuan Marquis's Mansion wouldn't even have been able to get close to the Valley of Divine Physicians!

Seeing Shen Shuqing covering her face, her expression changing, as if she was dissatisfied.

Qiu Fangyun angrily said, "What? Are you looking at me like that, trying to argue?"
