Chapter 40: The Divine Doctor Goes Mad Without Realizing
Having been caught twice overhearing their secrets, Song Miqiu truly felt that he deserved to die!
Why can't you just lie down comfortably?
Why do you have to go out for a stroll?
Now that he's been exposed, there's no need for Song Miqiu to hide behind the tree any longer.
Most importantly, having those two pairs of eyes staring at me was incredibly stressful.
Yu Huailin never expected this girl to be so absent-minded!
This is the second time, isn't it?
"Um! You guys carry on, I didn't hear anything, I was just passing by, I promise! I absolutely won't tell anyone!"
With the experience from last time, Yu Huailin should have confidence in himself, right?
Song Miqiu thought to herself silently.
It wasn't that she cared much about Yu Huailin's thoughts, but rather that if they didn't want to be confident in themselves, then she would only have one way out: death.
However, this time, Yu Huailin's attitude was quite different.
"Since you're here, come over and say hello. You've probably met this person before, right? But last time, the occasion wasn't right, so I couldn't introduce him to you."
"Today I will formally introduce him to you, the miracle doctor, Madman Unaware."
Is the miracle doctor mad without realizing it?
Although Song Miqiu didn't know who this person was, he could already sense that this person was extraordinary just from hearing the name.
In addition, there was the county magistrate's attitude towards him last time at the yamen.
Song Miqiu could easily guess how distinguished this person was.
But why was someone like him completely overwhelmed by Yu Huailin's aura?
Song Miqiu couldn't help but speculate about Huailin once again.
I didn't care about Yu Huailin, but Feng Bujue sensed something subtle.
"When did you become so generous? Who is this woman that you can let her go like this?"
The same thing happened last time. If he hadn't personally delivered the message, how could I have possibly ended up in that useless place like the yamen!
This time, their conversation was likely overheard, but Yu Huailin wasn't angry at all.
What is the background of this old lady?
Hearing Feng Bujue's words, Yu Huailin's tone remained completely flat. "If I really had to say, he would be a temporarily trustworthy partner."
Yu Huailin was very serious when he said this, but whether the other two believed him or not was another matter.
Feng Bujue remained silent, and Song Miqiu, embarrassed, didn't know how to continue the conversation.
Yu Huailin, on the other hand, seemed completely at ease, as if he hadn't noticed the awkward atmosphere.
“Go on, there’s no need to deliberately avoid her about this.”
The madman was startled, and Song Miqiu was almost scared to death!
Brother! Can't we talk this out? Is it really necessary to kill someone to cover it up?
Generally speaking, when someone tells them about such confidential matters and that they don't need to worry about the people around them who aren't on good terms with them, it's basically a way of silencing them, right?
While Song Miqiu was lost in thought, Feng Bujue on the other side began to scrutinize her closely for the first time.
"How strange! What skills does this person have that allow him to have Yu Huailin completely under his control?"
But this person was clearly just an old lady.
If I really had to say, she would be a very ordinary-looking old lady!
However, just as Feng Bujue was about to look away, losing interest, he suddenly discovered something fun!
"Disguise? This old lady is actually a disguiser!"
Looking at it this way, Feng Bujue can probably understand why Yu Huailin would have such an attitude.
Song Miqiu was unaware that her disguise skills had been discovered by a third person. At this moment, she was concentrating on how to deal with the situation that was about to unfold.
However, just as she was getting nervous, the miracle doctor withdrew his gaze!
“Then let’s continue. The reason I came here this time is because of the matter in Lincheng.”
"Flooding in Lincheng?"
"Yes! It's the flood in Lincheng! Although it has been controlled, as you know, it took too long, and many people have died or fallen ill! This kind of flood is most likely to cause epidemics. The bodies of those who died at the beginning were not dealt with in time, and now the epidemic has spread."
Most people couldn't accept leaving their loved ones' bodies in the wilderness, but because of floods at that time, they had no way to bury them, so they could only pile them up.
As a result, an epidemic broke out.
"So he sent you?"
Song Miqiu clearly sensed the change in Yu Huailin's tone.
He had always been a gentle person, but suddenly he turned gloomy, which Song Miqiu found hard to adapt to.
Who is the "he" that Yu Huailin mentioned?
Why does that person seem like his Achilles' heel, someone he can't mention or touch?
"No, it is His Highness the Crown Prince who has come to control the epidemic this time!"
Upon hearing this, Song Miqiu glanced at them with some surprise, and a bold guess formed in her mind.
Perhaps afraid of alerting them, Song Miqiu quickly covered her mouth!
If people find out about this, will I get my head chopped off?
Fortunately, Huailin and the others are not paying attention to her right now.
Upon hearing Feng Bujue's words, Yu Huailin couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"The Emperor actually ordered the Crown Prince to personally manage the epidemic? This is no small matter. If things go wrong, the Crown Prince himself might also contract the disease! Ha, indeed, the imperial family is the most ruthless. I really don't know if the Emperor is trying to establish the Crown Prince's authority or to ensure that the Crown Prince never returns!"
This matter is truly polarized.
If the Crown Prince has absolute confidence in curing this epidemic, then this would be an excellent way to establish his authority!
But if the crown prince were to contract the virus, he would face certain death.
You can never guess what the emperor is thinking!
Unbeknownst to Yu Huailin, he had spoken his true feelings, and Song Miqiu couldn't help but purse her lips.
Is this something that can't be said? He was practically insulting the Emperor!
Song Miqiu felt that she shouldn't listen any longer; if this continued, she feared she might lose her life.
"Who knows what he's thinking! I came to you today to discuss this matter. What do you think they mean? What should I do next?"
This madman is absolutely brilliant in his medical practice, but he falls short in other areas.
Hearing his question, Yu Huailin thought for a moment and then turned his gaze to Song Miqiu, who was standing to the side.
What are your thoughts?
Yu Huailin's sudden question caught Song Miqiu off guard.
Are you talking to me?
Song Miqiu pointed to herself in disbelief, wondering if she was even allowed to participate in such a topic.
"otherwise?"
When did this woman become so slow to react?
Feng Bujue subtly shifted his attention to Song Miqiu, wanting to see what other skills this woman had up her sleeve!
Song Miqiu felt her scalp tingle and her heart pound with uncertainty, but she still mustered up the courage to speak.
"I'm just an old man from the village, how would I know about such things?"
Song Miqiu smiled and then said nothing more.
But her heart was far from at peace.
