A Romantic Beauty Around Imperial City - C223 Acting

The Emperor nodded. “Looks like I’ve come at the wrong time today. Since that’s the case, I’ll be leaving first. You two should take a good rest.”

After saying that, he moved his feet as if he wanted to go into the inner room to take a look at Qian Li, but he felt that it would be inconvenient in front of everyone, so after pondering for a moment, he turned around and walked outside, only instructing the butler who was following him, “Send someone to the imperial palace to report the situation of our princes and princesses, take care of them well, if there’s anything you need, feel free to tell us.”

Seeing that the emperor’s men had finally left, the butler secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and turned to quickly walk back into the room. At that moment, the only people left in the room were the unconscious Qian Li, Gong Ming and Ling’er.

And at that moment, Gong Ming was already walking towards Qian Li, brimming with energy and spirit, he even took the medicine bowl from Ling’er’s hands and fed it to him.

His appearance was completely different from the sickly person from before.

“Sent off?” Hearing the sound of footsteps, Gong Ming spoke up without turning his head around.

The butler nodded, then remembered that he couldn’t see, so he closed the door and approached. “Yes, Your Highness. The Emperor doesn’t seem to suspect anything.”

Gong Ming smiled slightly, as if he was very satisfied with everything that happened. He shifted to Ling’er and said, “You truly are worthy of being the biological grandson of a genius doctor. Your medical skills will definitely not be lower than your grandfather’s in the future.”

Being praised by Gong Ming, Ling’er appeared to be very shy, somewhat happy, and also a bit awkward. Of course, the people who heard the most could not understand, “In detail, Ling’er didn’t do anything.”

“Why is Ling’er being so modest? If not for you, the King of Japan would not have been able to pass today.”

“Since Your Highness has already said so, it seems that Ling’er will have no choice but to accept this contribution.”

After saying that, she did not give anyone else any space to speak. Ling’er frowned as she voiced out her doubts, “Just that, Ling’er has something she does not understand.”

“If you have something to say, just say it. We’re all on the same side, so there’s no need to act this way.”

The three words that sounded like it warmed Ling’er’s heart, but she did not forget what she was feeling curious about, “Ling’er just did not understand. Since Prince already said that it was my grandfather who saved him, why did you … “From within …” Ling’er was still unable to say the words that told a lie, but Gong Ming was not, so how could he not understand her meaning?

However, he didn’t need to answer because the butler had already taken the initiative to speak up, “Miss Ling’er has lived in seclusion deep in the mountains for so many years, although she will occasionally follow the genius doctor down the mountain, the people who have seen her do not experience too many things in the end. The people of this world aren’t as simple as you think.”

These words made Ling’er even more suspicious. She frowned and looked at the butler, as if she was seriously waiting for an answer.

The butler smiled, seeing that his master still had no intention to speak, he could only explain, “If we were to speak the truth, the emperor would definitely recruit either the genius doctor or Miss Ling’er into the palace. At that time, according to your grandfather’s personality, he would definitely rather die than obey the imperial decree, but if he did not go to the palace, the emperor would definitely not give up, and at that time, even if Miss Ling’er and your grandfather escaped to the ends of the earth, it would still be impossible to hide from him.

Ling’er frowned, “Then … Even someone as powerful as the prince could not do anything about it? ”

These words caused Gong Ming to glance sideways slightly, making the butler feel awkward for a moment. Luckily, Gong Ming put down the medicine bowl in his hand at this moment, as he said, “Could it be that in this world, this king will naturally be the same?”
