The Prime Minister’s Darling-Chapter 459 - Brutal 233 (Second Update)

Chapter 459: Brutal 233 (Second Update) Chapter 459: Brutal 233 (Second Update) Tang Ming felt the icy anger coming from Gu Changqing and was utterly intimidated on the spot.

Gu Changqing did not want to wake Gu Yan, so he withdrew his sword, and took Gu Yan away without causing a ruckus.

It was not until Gu Changqing vanished at the end of the street that Tang Ming, drenched by the cold rain, finally came back to his senses.

Damn it!

Did he just get threatened by Gu Changqing?!

Gu Changqing took Gu Yan back to Bishui Alley, while on another side, Gu Jiao returned to the Medical Hall.

She entered through the back door, directly into her own Courtyard, where she changed back into her female clothes before going to the Grand Hall.

The shopkeeper, Wang, was surprised when he saw her: “Eh? Where did you come in from?”

“The back door,” Gu Jiao replied.

The third apprentice followed behind in silence.

Dr. Song, having finished visiting the patients upstairs, came down and greeted Gu Jiao.

The Shopkeeper Wang handed her a cup of tea.

Gu Jiao took the cup and took a sip. Then she asked Dr. Song, “How is Jiang Shi’s condition?”

“The weather changed suddenly, and he caught a chill. He had some fever at noon, and we gave him some medicine, which brought down the fever.”

“He needs to avoid catching wind-chill at this point. It can easily lead to complications,” stated Gu Jiao. She paused and then said, “I will go and see him in a while.”

“Very well,” Dr. Song responded.

“Dr. Song! This patient says he has lost the prescription you gave him and he is asking if we can prepare the medicine again?” a medicine boy was calling Dr. Song from the medicine counter.

Dr. Song responded: “I will go over.”

Gu Jiao nodded in assent.

Dr. Song then went over to the medicine counter.

At this moment, there were not many patients in the clinic, and it was not busy. The shopkeeper Wang guided Gu Jiao to the counting room and updated her about the continuing issue with the medical troublemakers: “…those few are nothing more than petty hooligans from the Capital city who are known for their petty crimes. They are not from our area; they are from the west side of the city. I agreed not to report them to the authorities as long as they confessed who was behind their actions. I had planned to bluff them. But to my surprise, they really claimed that someone had instigated them!”

Gu Jiao was not surprised by this.

“Is it someone from the same line of work? ” Gu Jiao enquired.

Shopkeeper Wang said, “That’s my guess too. They said there was a mastermind, and I thought it had to be our old rivals… Huichun Hall? However, guess what they told me, it was a young lady!”

Gu Jiao asked, “What’s the age of this young lady?”

Shopkeeper Wang nodded and recalled, “They said, quite a young maiden. From her voice, she seemed to be a teenager. She wore a broad-brimmed bamboo hat and a veil, so they could not see her face clearly, but her clothes appeared to be quite expensive. I thought about it, but there is no teenager in Huichun Hall. The girl of the second master is barely seven! However, if she is some shopkeeper’s daughter, they can’t afford such expensive clothes.”

The shopkeeper Wang was at a loss about the young lady’s identity.

Gu Jiao stroked her chin pondering, “A young lady?”

The rain had stopped outside, but the sky was still overcast, hinting at the possibility of another heavy downpour at any time.

The girl’s school didn’t dare to delay the release of the students and let them out on time.

Li Wanwan lived quite a distance away, without the luxury of being picked up and dropped off by a carriage like other young ladies. She had to race home before it rained again.

She carried the zither box and left the girls’ school quickly.

Perhaps because she was in a rush, she did not notice a man getting down from a carriage in front of a medical hall.

“Ah–”

Li Wanwan bumped into the man’s arm.

Inside the girl’s school, a young girl was watching dreamily from a room on the second floor as a prince got out of the carriage, her eyes filled with awe and admiration.

Suddenly, however, she saw Li Wanwan bumped into him and her eyes instantly turned cold.

“I’m sorry, so sorry!” Li Wanwan hastily apologized.

The Prince didn’t even glance at her while Wuyang stepped forward and asked her, “Are you all right, miss? I hope our collision didn’t hurt you.”

“No, no!” Li Wanwan didn’t dare to raise her head and look directly at the two of them. Since they didn’t seem upset, she quickly picked up her zither case and left as fast as she could.

The young girl upstairs was visibly relieved as she saw the prince again. The light in her eyes returned.

She waved towards the prince.

The prince didn’t see her and continued towards the medical hall.

Suddenly, another girl from the school appeared.

“Prince…?” The girl called out, a little uncertainly, stopping the prince who was about to enter the clinic.

The prince turned his head to look at her and asked with confusion, “May I know what you need, Miss?”

The girl covered her mouth in excitement, “Your poems are so good! I have started collecting your poems since I was a child! I even made a collection of your poems!”

The prince politely smiled in response.

That’s how he is, courtesy personified with everyone.

The girl upstairs could not hear what they were saying, but only saw them chatting happily. A surge of jealousy overwhelmed her heart.
