After the emperor left, Princess Shu Yuan also led Qiao Nian to take her leave.

As soon as they walked out of the queen's bedroom, Qiao Nian saw that the palace maid Yun'er led the other eunuchs and palace maids to deliberately slow down their pace, and she knew that Princess Shu Yuan had something to say to her.

As expected.

When the others were ten steps away from them, Princess Shu Yuan spoke, "Treatment for the father is not the same as treatment for the concubines in the harem. If I hadn't asked today, you, a little doctor, would not be able to get close to the father."

Qiao Nian knew that Princess Shu Yuan was flattering herself.

It was indeed impossible for others, but with her identity as a "disciple of the divine doctor", it was not difficult for her to get close to the emperor.

But she couldn't say these words out loud, so she just responded respectfully, "Yes, thanks to the princess for promoting me."

Princess Shu Yuan curled her lips and smiled, and then said, "You work hard, and as long as your father is satisfied, it won't be difficult to promote you to be an imperial physician." At this point, Princess Shu Yuan seemed to have thought of something, "By the way, Imperial Physician Xue is also old, and he may retire in a few years. At that time, it won't be difficult to promote you to be the director of the Imperial Hospital."

In Princess Shu Yuan's view, she paved the way for Qiao Nian in the future.

But for Qiao Nian, those were not what she wanted.

What she wanted was nothing more than the safety and health of the people around her, that's all.

For now, she still thanked her loudly, pretending to be very interested in what the princess said.

Princess Shu Yuan did not notice anything unusual about Qiao Nian's reaction. After all, it was not easy for a woman to be an official, not to mention that she had promised Qiao Nian the position of the director of the Imperial Hospital, which was already a great gift from heaven, and it was normal for Qiao Nian to be so grateful.

So, she just smiled at Qiao Nian.

The smile on her lips became brighter and brighter, and her eyes became deeper and deeper. After a while, she said, "You are mine, so I will naturally take care of you everywhere. As long as you are obedient, you will have a bright future."

Qiao Nian understood at once that the key point of this sentence was "obedience".

She immediately saluted Princess Shu Yuan, "Princess, you say one thing, I dare not say two."

Perhaps she had been used to seeing Qiao Nian's submissive appearance for two months.

Princess Shu Yuan just smiled slightly, full of contempt in her heart.

But at this moment, a roar came from not far away, tearing apart the hypocritical tranquility of the harem.

"Bitch!"

Qiao Nian and Princess Shu Yuan looked up at the same time, and saw that Concubine De was striding towards them in a threatening manner.

She looked like she was going to skin and tear people apart.

Qiao Nian had seen Concubine De like this before.

It was after King Ming passed away.

And now...

"Sun Xian is dead."

Princess Shu Yuan's voice came from Qiao Nian's ears, soft and gentle, as if she was talking about something that was not worth mentioning.

"This princess ordered people to break his hands and feet, and also cut off his sperm and grandchildren and stuffed them into his mouth."

Hearing this, Qiao Nian's eyebrows suddenly sank.

The person who harmed Princess Shu Yuan was not Sun Xian. After all, Sun Xian was just not strict with his subordinates. Why would he use such a cruel method?

Just thinking about it, Concubine De had already rushed in front of the two of them, raised her hand high and threw it down fiercely, "Bitch!"

"Snap!"

A crisp sound.

But it didn't fall on Princess Shuyuan's face.

Qiao Nian turned her face to the side, her cheek was burning with pain.

She never thought that Concubine De had been coming for her from the beginning!

She was slightly shocked, and then she heard Concubine De shouting, "Bitch! How did I let you down? It's not enough that you killed my Qi'er, you even killed my brother!"

She killed him?

Qiao Nian frowned immediately, subconsciously glanced at Princess Shuyuan, and then looked at Concubine De, "Concubine, calm down, there may be a misunderstanding."

"What misunderstanding can there be!" Concubine De said, and slapped Qiao Nian again.

Fortunately, Qiao Nian was prepared this time, and took a step back to avoid it.

Concubine De refused to let Qiao Nian go, and rushed up to hit her.

Yun'er then came forward with a group of palace maids and eunuchs to stop Concubine De.

But, how could Concubine De let Qiao Nian go?

Sun Xian died so tragically, how could she not be angry?

That kind of death was clearly a slap in the face of the entire Sun family!

Even though she was stopped by the palace maids, she kept waving her hands, wishing she could tear off Qiao Nian's face.

Watching this scene, Princess Shu Yuan on the side finally stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "The Imperial Concubine dared to commit a crime outside my mother's bedroom. This is not taking my mother seriously! Come! Take Concubine De back and keep her under strict supervision. This princess will report this to my father and he will punish her severely!"

"Yes."

The palace maids responded in unison, ignoring Concubine De's roar, dragging her away.

I waited until I could no longer see Concubine De's figure, but I could still hear her roar in my ears.

And Qiao Nian's face was also burning with pain.

"Are you okay?"

Princess Shu Yuan's voice sounded in my ears.

Qiao Nian then looked at Princess Shu Yuan, her brows slightly furrowed, "Princess, don't worry, this is just a minor injury, I'll go back and apply some medicine."

Hearing this, Princess Shu Yuan nodded slightly.

But seeing Qiao Nian's eyes staring at her, she couldn't help but smile, "What?"

Qiao Nian took a deep breath and asked, "What did the princess do to make Concubine De so sure that Sun Xian died in my hands?"

Princess Shu Yuan raised her eyebrows lightly, "It's just that someone was spreading some gossip, saying that Sun Xian had tried to tarnish you and had a grudge with you, and then asked someone to leave a silver needle on Sun Xian's leg .”

This is a big wonder.

Qiao Nian nodded slightly and lowered her eyes.

He only heard Princess Shu Yuan smile and said, "What? Are you angry? He just said that he would tell me the princess the same thing. Now he can't bear to stop the crime for me?"

Qiao Nian then sighed and looked at Princess Shu Yuan, "It's not that she refuses to pay the princess's fault, but she hopes that when the princess has such a thing in the future, she can inform the minister in advance so that she can get beaten. Can be prepared."

Hearing this, Princess Shuyuan couldn't help laughing and was born, "Hahaha, okay, I'll just think it's wrong this time, but don't worry, there will be no next time. You are my princess, how can I bear to give up Have you been beaten?"

"Thank you, Princess."

Qiao Nian gave a tribute, which made Princess Shu Yuan smile more and more brightly, "Okay, you go and apply medicine first! Don't you have to ask your father for your pulse in a while?"

"Yes." Qiao Nian then saluted and turned around and left.

But even if she turned around and left, the expression on her face did not change at all, as if she was really willing to block this for Princess Shu Yuan.

But only Qiao Nian herself knows that she must get everything she has today!
