Chapter 402: The Ghost Doctor
Chapter 402: The Ghost Doctor
However, Lin Rusi was still at home waiting for Li Jingyang to return.
Lin Rusi was restless in the mansion, not knowing what to do.
Moreover, she had a bad feeling, but Lin Rusi always believed that Li Jingyang would return safely.
The maids bustled around in front of Lin Rusi, trying to distract her.
"Your Highness, there's no need to think so much. How about we have some pastries? These are newly bought!"
Looking at the plates of exquisite pastries in front of her, Lin Rusi couldn't muster any interest.
Lin Rusi then waved her hand, dismissing the maids.
Lin Rusi slowly walked into the study, sat down, picked up the brush, and prepared to write a letter to her senior brother.
After all, Lin Rusi hadn't seen her senior brother for a long time.
She still missed the people from her sect a little.
Just then, Ye Ruoruo also entered the study.
"Should we write a letter to my senior brother? I heard he's already arrived in the capital."
When Ye Ruoruo glanced at the contents of Lin Rusi's letter, she said thoughtfully.
Lin Rusi was somewhat shocked when she heard the news, since her senior brother had not contacted her and she did not know where he was.
"Did Senior Brother tell you? Senior Sister, when will he be able to come to the manor?"
Lin Rusi was extremely excited and grabbed Ye Ruoruo's hand to ask.
However, Ye Ruoruo shook her head.
"You know perfectly well that your senior brother is always elusive; how am I supposed to know when he'll be here..."
Upon hearing these words, Lin Rusi lowered her head.
It's true, everyone in their sect is quite eccentric.
"Hey……"
Lin Rusi sighed, took Ye Ruoruo's hand, and sat down on the corridor outside the door.
But before the two of them could exchange more than a few words, a maid came forward to request an audience.
“Someone has come to the Princess’s door to pick up a document and says they are here to see you.”
Lin Rusi was puzzled when she heard these words. She wondered who had come to see her. Could it be Ling Xue'er?
"Since someone wants to see you, I'll go back to my bedroom now."
After saying these words, Ye Ruoruo turned and left.
Lin Rusi was left alone in the corridor, lost in thought.
Lin Rusi originally intended to meet this person.
But Lin Rusi immediately changed her mind and thought, what if it was someone sent by the Second Prince?
"I don't really want to see you. Send him away."
But at that moment, the maid suddenly took out a piece of jade from her pocket.
The jade was dark red, and Lin Rusi noticed it at a glance. It turned out that the person who came was her senior brother.
So he immediately had the maid bring the person over.
"Bring him here immediately!"
In Lin Rusi's anxiety, the maid also brought her senior brother, the Ghost Doctor.
However, the Ghost Doctor's black and red robes were particularly eerie.
However, Lin Rusi was exceptionally excited when she saw the Ghost Doctor.
"Senior Brother, you've finally arrived! I've been looking for you for so long. I was just about to write you a letter when you came to my residence!"
Seeing Lin Rusi's excited expression, the Ghost Doctor reached out and patted her head.
"I've been researching Gu poison these past few days, but haven't made any progress yet. However, I thought this place was close to you, so I came to see you."
Hearing the Ghost Doctor's explanation, Lin Rusi was even happier.
"That's wonderful, Senior Brother! By the way, Senior Sister was injured a few days ago, why don't you come and see her?"
And so, Lin Rusi immediately took the Ghost Doctor's hand and led him to Ye Ruoruo's bedroom.
Ye Ruoruo was overjoyed when she saw the Ghost Doctor.
However, the Ghost Doctor immediately noticed Ye Ruoruo's weakness.
"What happened, junior sister? What have you been through these past few days?"
Upon hearing the Ghost Doctor's question, Lin Rusi told him about how the Second Prince had imprisoned Ye Ruoruo a few days ago.
"This second prince truly deserves to die."
The Ghost Doctor gritted his teeth, but still stepped forward to examine Ye Ruoruo's injuries.
Ye Ruoruo has been recovering quite well these past few days, so the Ghost Doctor hasn't done much.
They simply removed many thin, long silver needles.
They were inserted into various acupoints on Ye Ruoruo.
He also took out a small jar of dark medicine and applied it to those acupoints.
Soon Ye Ruoruo coughed up a mouthful of blood.
"Her external injuries have now healed, but her internal injuries are not yet fully healed."
The Ghost Doctor looked at Ye Ruoruo in front of him and spoke softly, then removed the silver needles.
"You must take good care of yourself from now on. You can't take such risks for others again."
The Ghost Doctor said this to his two junior sisters.
Lin Ruosi and Ye Ruoruo both nodded in agreement.
"I know, senior brother, you've always been like this."
Lin Rusi teased, reaching out to pat her senior brother on the shoulder.
But they can't afford to waste much more time here now.
After all, we don't know what the situation is like on Li Jingyang's side yet.
Therefore, Lin Rusi was extremely anxious and wanted to take her senior brothers and sisters to find Li Jingyang and rescue him.
However, the situation in the palace had largely stabilized by this time.
The people in the main hall have been purged by the Second Prince.
The emperor and the crown prince were also placed in a safe place.
As for Li Jingyang, he has now escaped the pursuit of the guards.
On the other hand, the second prince has now been successfully captured by the secret guards sent by Li Jingyang.
When Lin Rusi and her group arrived at the palace, they found that everything had turned out exactly as they had predicted.
However, to Lin Rusi's surprise, it was actually the Second Prince's wife who was able to successfully capture the Second Prince.
"How could the Second Prince's wife do such a thing? She's just a weak woman!"
Lin Rusi was somewhat incredulous at what Li Jingyang had said.
After all, the Second Prince's wife was beaten so badly by the Second Prince, how could she possibly do these things now?
"This is of course inseparable from the Second Prince's wife. If it weren't for her help, I wouldn't be able to get out of here now."
Lin Rusi was also surprised to see Li Jingyang like this.
At this moment, the second prince was also gritting his teeth, feeling that everything in front of him was too fake.
In particular, when the Second Prince saw his princess consort there, his eyes widened in surprise.
"What are you doing here, you shameless woman? What have you done? Why did you betray me!"
Hearing the Second Prince's words, Lin Rusi suddenly understood.
"What right do you have to say such things now! You traitorous scoundrel!"
Lin Rusi also roared.
It seems that all of this was done by the Second Princess Consort in private.
