Then, to ease the awkwardness, Imperial Physician Qu smiled and said, "It's alright, it's alright. We still have the Third Prince. His Highness is good in every way. As long as His Highness is happy, that's all that matters. Speaking of which, I also miss the Third Prince. Now that he's of age, it's time for him to get married and have children. I'll have to make arrangements for him. A brave general like him deserves a gentle and tender young lady."
"Yes, yes, we need to make arrangements." Imperial Physician Zhang nodded.
"I'm looking at that one from so-and-so's house..."
Before Physician Xing could finish speaking, Su Fuliu pulled down the covers and said, "Physician Xing, Physician Zhang, Physician Qu, you...you don't need to bother anymore, Shilang...he..."
When Su Fuliu finally spoke, the three of them looked at him again and asked in unison, "What's wrong, Third Prince?"
“…He, he…I…” Su Fuliu really didn’t know what to say; he simply couldn’t bring himself to say it.
The three of them looked at the stammering Su Fuliu with utter confusion.
"Does Your Highness have some unspeakable difficulty? Could it be that the Third Prince... he is impotent?" Seeing Su Fuliu's embarrassed expression, Imperial Physician Qu made a bold guess.
"..." Su Fuliu pursed her lips slightly, "He, how should I put it... um, what did you guys think of Doctor Lu just now?"
The three looked at each other, nodded in unison, and began to praise him: "This Doctor Lu is young and promising, and he has become famous throughout the world at such a young age. Of course, His Highness is also very capable and is on par with him."
"Moreover, this Physician Lu is also very handsome and has an excellent temperament. Of course, His Highness is also good-looking, even more so."
"This Physician Lu is clearly a smart man. He is calm and composed in the face of adversity and is someone you can rely on. Of course, Your Highness is also someone you can rely on."
Su Fuliu pursed her lips. So, he's just someone you can rely on, not someone who's smart?
However, he was also aware of his own limitations; he was indeed not very bright.
Just then, Imperial Physician Zhang seemed to be talking to himself, saying, "If only he were His Highness's man, how wonderful that would be. He's handsome, skilled in medicine, gentle, intelligent, and courageous. Just look at his demeanor; he's no ordinary person. And that masked one, he's always wearing a mask. Could he be... ugly and deformed?"
Chapter 583: It All Belongs to Others
Physician Xing immediately nudged Physician Zhang with his elbow: "How could His Highness possibly take a fancy to such an ugly person!"
Imperial Physician Qu said, "That's hard to say. His Highness isn't someone who judges people by their appearance. Maybe our kind-hearted prince was moved by his true love despite his unattractive appearance?"
“I think he was just lustful at first sight, after all, our prince is so handsome…” Imperial Physician Zhang shook his head, looking like a heartbroken person whose beloved cabbage had been eaten by a pig.
Su Fuliu was somewhat helpless. He clearly asked them how Lu Chimo was doing, but they ended up bringing it up again, even saying that Feng Muting was a misfit.
If Feng Muting's handsome appearance is considered ugly, then there are probably very few good-looking people in the world.
“His name is Feng Muting, the King of Feng Kingdom. He’s not some ugly monster. He only wears a mask to avoid being recognized by Xiao Shixun,” Su Fuliu quickly explained.
Upon hearing this, Imperial Physician Xing immediately shook his head: "Oh dear, Your Highness, how could you... This old minister has heard that the King of Feng Kingdom is extremely ferocious. Aren't you suffering for this?"
"Ah, Prince Ting, is that the notoriously irritable prince of Feng Kingdom? Your Highness, are you alright? He... he didn't... he didn't lay a hand on you, did he?" Imperial Physician Qu asked worriedly.
However, Imperial Physician Zhang, who was standing to the side, realized the "problem" once again: "Well, it seems that he is not our 'Crown Princess', but our His Highness is someone else's 'Princess Ting'."
Su Fuliu blushed and continued to speak up for Feng Muting: "Don't be misled by the rumors. Tinglang is a very good person. He is very good to me. No, he is a hundred times good, a thousand times good, ten thousand times good."
His words immediately silenced the three imperial physicians.
They looked at their Crown Prince and sighed inwardly. Their precious, white cabbage had grown legs and run off to someone else's house, been cooked and eaten, and even spoke up for that person. Tsk.
Later, it was Physician Xing who asked, "Why did Your Highness ask us what we thought of Physician Lu?"
Su Fuliu paused, then coughed lightly: "Um... weren't you guys going to help Shilang with some arrangements? What I mean is, you don't need to bother anymore, Shilang is also..."
"Also?" the three asked in unison.
The three were then struck dumb and greatly shocked.
"Your Highness, are you referring to the Third Prince?"
"This, this..."
"Your Highness means that the person who is close to the Third Prince is... Doctor Lu?"
Su Fuliu didn't speak, but simply nodded silently.
"This...this...it's all over, it's all over." Imperial Physician Qu slapped his forehead.
It took Imperial Physician Xing a long time to recover his senses. He sighed and said, "Alas, as long as Your Highness and the Third Prince are happy, that's all that matters. Physician Lu is also quite good. It's just that Prince Ting's reputation isn't very good. I hope he's really as good as Your Highness says, with a thousand good things in ten ...
At this moment, Imperial Physician Zhang raised a crucial question: "If this is the Third Prince, then this Divine Physician Lu should be the Third Prince's consort, right?"
“Uh…” Su Fuliu was speechless.
Seeing his reaction, Imperial Physician Qu slapped his forehead again: "Oh no, oh no, they're all someone else's!"
Imperial Physician Zhang couldn't believe it: "This shouldn't be happening, this... how could this be?"
Physician Xing was also somewhat incredulous: "The Third Prince is a great general who has fought on the battlefield, so majestic and awe-inspiring. Physician Lu looks so refined and gentle, this... this..."
Chapter 584 We Must Treat Our Cabbage Well
"Cough... Shilang, he was saved by Doctor Lu's master. At that time, he was cut into a thousand pieces and his face was unrecognizable. Doctor Lu's master used all his medical skills to save him and gave him a new face. After he came back to life, he lost his memory and his personality changed drastically. Although he has regained his memory now, but... when you see Shilang, you will know what he looks like now."
Su Fuliu gave a general overview, but as for what Xiao Shilang is like now, he really couldn't say. He couldn't very well say that Xiao Shilang is particularly indecent now.
After hearing this, Imperial Physician Xing couldn't help but sigh, "Your Highness and the Third Prince... have suffered so much."
Physician Qu chimed in, "Yes, it's all that fault... If it weren't for him, sigh..."
Imperial Physician Zhang said, "Although it is hard to accept, as long as Your Highness and the Third Prince are happy, that's all that matters. If they dare to treat Your Highness and the Third Prince badly in the future, this old minister will be the first to fight them to the death."
Looking at the three of them, tears instantly welled up in Su Fuliu's eyes: "Imperial Physician Zhang, Imperial Physician Qu, Imperial Physician Xing..."
"Your Highness, please don't cry!" When Physician Xing saw Su Fuliu crying, he hurriedly grabbed his sleeve to wipe away his tears.
Imperial Physician Zhang and Imperial Physician Qu also went over, wanting to use their sleeves to wipe away Su Fuliu's tears.
Seeing this, Wen Hongye's eyes reddened, and he quietly turned away, unable to bear watching.
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Chimo returned.
Physician Xing and the others immediately turned to look at him, their gazes clearly different from before, which puzzled Lu Chimo.
He glanced at Su Fuliu and saw her lower her head like a child who had made a mistake. He was taken aback, but after considering the reactions of Physician Xing and the others, he quickly understood what was going on.
He walked over unhurriedly, and Physician Xing and the others surrounded him, their three pairs of eyes fixed on Lu Chimo as if trying to see right through him.
This made Lu Chimo feel as if he were naked, and he was quite uncomfortable being stared at, so he said, "Gentlemen... is there really no need for this?"
Imperial Physician Qu snorted: "Why didn't you say anything when we mentioned the Third Prince earlier? Why didn't you say that you were the Third Prince's... cough."
"I was afraid you wouldn't be able to handle the double blow at once, so I kept quiet," Lu Chimo replied. After all, they were already shocked enough by what they learned about Su Fuliu. If they were to hear about Bai Yulang as well, he was afraid that they, being of advanced age, wouldn't be able to withstand one shock after another. He wanted to give them time to process it.
"...You, you absolutely must be good to our cabbage...no, to our Third Prince, otherwise, this old man won't let you off easily, and I'll fight you to the death even if I can't beat you," said Imperial Physician Zhang.
"Please rest assured, Yu... Shilang is the person I love with my life. If I treat him badly, you don't need to fight me, I won't forgive myself either," Lu Chimo replied seriously.
Physician Xing nodded and said earnestly, "Although our Third Prince is somewhat aloof and taciturn, and a very upright person, he has an absolutely good heart. He is just cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and not good at expressing himself. If he does anything inappropriate, you, as his man, must be more tolerant and not bully him. If you really feel that there is something wrong with him and you don't want him anymore, you should send him back properly and never hurt him."
Chapter 585 Golden Brand
Lu Chimo nodded: "Please rest assured, I will be good to Shilang for the rest of my life."
After hearing Physician Xing's evaluation of Bai Yulang, Su Fuliu couldn't imagine what it would be like if they ever met Bai Yulang again...
Wen Hongye, who was standing to the side, also looked at Physician Xing with a strange expression, wondering if the person Physician Xing had just described was Bai Yulang...?
Physician Xing and the others were relieved and stopped stopping Lu Chimo.
Lu Chimo walked to the bedside and looked at Su Fuliu, saying, "The prince is currently fine, but he is being held in prison."
"Is Xiao Shixun not going to release him?" Su Fuliu asked.
“If he wanted to release him, why did he have to be arrested in the first place?” Lu Chimo replied.
Su Fuliu paused, then sighed softly, "What can we do? Although Tinglang is fine now, Xiao Shixun won't let him go, and he'll make a move against him sooner or later."
“Therefore, Young Master Su, you should recover quickly so that we can work together to find a way to rescue the Prince,” Lu Chimo said.
Su Fuliu replied, "But what good will it do me if I recover? I... I can't help you in any way."
It's good that he didn't cause any trouble for everyone.
Lu Chimo shook his head: "How could Young Master Su be unable to help in any way? On the contrary, the greatest help is something only Young Master Su can provide."
Su Fuliu looked at him, puzzled: "What do you mean?"
“You are the biggest brand.” Lu Chimo looked back at him.
"A prestigious brand?" Su Fuliu was still puzzled.
"You are the Crown Prince, beloved by the people of Xiao Kingdom!"
Su Fuliu was slightly taken aback, and only then did she understand what Lu Chimo meant: "But I..."
“Young Master Su, there’s no need to worry. I will assist you with the rest.” Lu Chimo knew what Su Fuliu was worried about; Su Fuliu was worried that he couldn’t control these things.
Looking at Lu Chimo's determined eyes, Su Fuliu felt a little more at ease. As long as he trusted Lu Chimo and listened to him, there would definitely be no problem!
So he nodded: "Okay."
"So now, you need to get well first before we can do anything else," Lu Chimo added.
"Mm." Su Fuliu nodded again.
The three imperial physicians kept staring at Lu Chimo, and they felt that Lu Chimo was quite good. It was just a pity that she was not their "Third Prince's Consort". So they really couldn't understand why their Third Prince was in a weak position.
Is the Third Prince unable to beat the other party or unable to out-argue them?
How come someone else got to steal this cabbage instead?
The three of them racked their brains but still couldn't figure it out.
Lu Chimo noticed the three gazes behind him and turned to look at them: "Are the three of you still worried about me?"
The three imperial physicians were all taken aback, and then shook their heads in unison.
Su Fuliu quickly spoke up for Lu Chimo, saying, "Imperial Physician Xing, Imperial Physician Zhang, Imperial Physician Qu, don't worry. Divine Physician Lu is not only a renowned physician, but he is also the Grand Preceptor of the Feng Kingdom, holding a very high position in the kingdom!"
The three imperial physicians were somewhat surprised. This Lu Chimo was actually the Grand Preceptor of the Feng Kingdom. That was quite good. Now they were even more well-matched.
The three nodded in unison, and Physician Qu said, "I knew that Physician Lu's demeanor was more than just that of a divine physician. It turns out he is also the Grand Preceptor of the Feng Kingdom, a true dragon among men."
Physician Xing also said, "Yes, that puts our minds at ease. The Third Prince won't suffer if he follows Physician Lu."
Imperial Physician Zhang sighed inwardly, realizing that their Third Prince was actually the "Imperial Preceptor's Wife".
