Shengjing Noble

Chapter 469 Suffering a lot

"Brother Fu, don't think too much. Take good care of your injuries. When you recover a little, you can go find that Gu Master."

"Now it doesn't matter to me whether I find her or not."

"why?"

"Because I'm not afraid anymore. As long as I think that my mother might be waiting for me down there, I don't feel that death is painful."

Su Lanyin frowned, feeling that these words sounded strange.

"Don't think like that. If you can survive, you must try your best to survive. After all, you have struggled for so long. If you give up without continuing to work hard, how can you justify your previous persistence?"

"Yes, you are right. I should continue to try to persevere. I am sorry for making things difficult for you today. If you bring me to the doctor's room, I am afraid you will be in trouble tomorrow."

"trouble?"

"Well, the Xue family will never let me live, and the queen won't tolerate me. If you help me, I'm afraid they will target you too."

"It's okay. I'm not afraid."

"Sorry……"

"Don't be polite to me anymore. We owe each other so much that we can't tell who is sorry to whom."

Fu Mingchuan was amused by her: "Haha...that's right, then we don't have to be polite."

"I'll go see Master. I'm afraid he's angry with me."

"Should I go and apologize in person too?"

"You should just rest your body. I'll do it."

"What if he embarrasses you?"

"If the master really doesn't want us to come in, do you think we can get in?"

"This……"

"This time, he not only let us in, but also helped us stop Fu Wuyang. Otherwise, if I were disturbed, I would not be able to give you acupuncture at all."

"Why is Doctor Xue so lazy about staying with the emperor's uncle? If he gets angry, he won't recognize his relatives. I know him a little bit. Sometimes even my father can't get the better of him."

"Did I tell you that my master is a martial arts expert?"

"What?" Fu Mingchuan looked confused.

Su Lanyin smiled and said, "Okay, it's okay, I'll be back soon."

After saying that, she stood up and left the medicine boy's room and came to the door of Doctor Xue's room.

Although she said that the master would not be angry, she was still very nervous.

Su Lanyin took a deep breath, then knocked on the door with trepidation.

"Master... I am here to apologize."

From inside the house, the not-so-peaceful voice of Doctor Xue was heard.

"Come in!"

Su Lanyin's heart skipped a beat, then she pushed the door open and went in.

"Master..."

She stood at the door and saw that there was no light in the room. In the dim light, Doctor Xue was sitting cross-legged on the bed with his eyes closed, resting.

"Come here and kneel down."

"Yes……"

Su Lanyin walked forward cautiously and knelt on the mat on the ground.

This was prepared by the master in advance, probably because he was afraid that she would catch a cold kneeling on the ground...

"Master, I was wrong..."

"Why do you have to make things difficult for yourself for the sake of others? Have you forgotten what you said to me?"

"Disciple..." Su Lanyin lowered her head in shame.

"You said you had a dream in which you had to endure humiliation and suffering. Have you forgotten it?"

"No."

"But what did you say to your master at that time? Say it again."

"My disciple said... I want to live selfishly, not caring about the lives of others, and only doing things that are beneficial to myself, even if it means sacrificing others to protect myself."

"Did you do it?" Doctor Xue asked seriously.

Su Lanyin's eyes became hot and she lowered her head even deeper.

"It's easy to say, and I thought so at the beginning, but now that something really happened, I can't do it..."

"Why can't it be done?"

"I can't bear it. They are all very kind to their disciples and are very sincere."

"So is it worth offending the Queen and the Xue family for this?"

"Maybe it's not that serious..."

"Heh...why are you always so naive?"

"I'm sorry, Master..."

"From now on, you don't have to call me Master anymore."

"Ah?" Su Lanyin raised her head in panic, "Master, don't you want a disciple anymore?"

"The disciple of the divine doctor, the Princess of Anning County, the granddaughter of the richest man in Quanzhou, and entangled with two princes... Any of these identities is enough to let those hungry wolves tear you into pieces. There are too many eyes on you."

"So you don't want me anymore?"

"Yes, I have taught you everything you should learn. You are very talented. I am very pleased to have a disciple like you to inherit the medical skills. From now on, you will be expelled from the sect."

"Master..."

"I cannot let Yao Tong and other people who are involved be implicated. Do you understand?"

Su Lanyin knelt on the ground in frustration, shedding tears of grievance.

"I understand, Master... I was too reckless today, but the medicine that can save Brother Fu is only available in the Medical Cottage, and I can't do anything..."

"So, it's time to make a break. I'll show you a clear path. Are you willing to listen?"

"Master, please tell me."

"Either marry into Xiaoyao Palace and seek shelter, or follow Fu Mingchuan and leave Shengjing, away from the center of the vortex, and perhaps you can save your life."

"I..." Su Lanyin's eyes were full of resistance.

She didn't want to be trapped in the palace, especially because of her status, she could only marry Fu Wuyang as a concubine.

As for Fu Mingchuan, if I leave with him, wouldn't I be separated from my family completely?

"What about my mother?"

"Go back to Quanzhou. Your grandfather is capable of taking good care of her."

After hearing this, Su Lanyin completely understood that she had no way out.

"Think about it for one night. When you leave the medical ward tomorrow, no matter what you choose, it will have nothing to do with me."

"Yes, Master...Divine Doctor."

Su Lanyin looked at him reluctantly, and then she realized that her master's hair was getting whiter and whiter, and the wrinkles on his face were becoming more and more obvious.

She straightened up, knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times solemnly to Doctor Xue.

"Thank you for your teaching and care. I will never forget this kindness in my life."

After saying that, he stood up and left, closing the door gently.

It was completely dark outside. She looked up and saw that there was not a single star in the sky. The night sky was so dark that it made her feel suffocated.

Su Lanyin felt heavy inside, as if she had been carrying a heavy burden in an instant.

He glanced at the medicine boy's door and hesitated for a moment. He thought that if he walked in with this expression, Fu Mingchuan might worry.

She took a deep breath, walked out, and wanted to find a deserted place to relax.

As soon as he went out, he heard some noise coming from the carriage and immediately became nervous.

"Who? The driver?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Wuyang got out of the car.

She breathed a sigh of relief and asked helplessly, "Why are you still here?"

He walked over, grabbed her arm, looked around, turned her around, and made sure nothing was wrong before he said, "What are you doing in there?"

"Of course it's for curing illnesses. Is it like you and Miss Shen?"

Fu Wuyang frowned: "I have nothing to do with Shen Ruchu."
