I insist

Chapter 425: Doubts

As a result of this incident, the seventh prince was given a sinecure.

The Seventh Prince came specifically to thank Song Miqiu and was waiting at the palace gate.

When Song Miqiu finished her shift, the first person she saw was him.

"Greetings, Seventh Prince."

The Seventh Prince nodded at her: "I came here specifically to find you. Let's talk as we walk."

Song Miqiu nodded and walked side by side with the Seventh Prince.

After the two had left the palace, Song Miqiu finally spoke up and asked, "You don't come to the palace without a reason. The Seventh Prince must have something to say to me."

"I came here specifically to thank you. Although you didn't do much, you played a crucial role."

The Seventh Prince said seriously.

These words left Song Miqiu somewhat bewildered, and she even found the Seventh Prince rather strange.

"What does the Seventh Prince mean by that?"

"You really don't understand?"

The two stopped at the same time and looked at each other.

Song Miqiu immediately understood what was going on when she saw the Seventh Prince's eyes, but she pretended not to understand.

"Your words are becoming increasingly incomprehensible."

"If you don't understand, you don't understand."

The Seventh Prince did not continue discussing this matter. Instead, he turned to Song Miqiu and said, "I will soon be granted the title of Prince. Would you like to come to my residence with me?"

Song Miqiu was surprised that the Seventh Prince would bring this up with her, and she did not answer his question immediately.

"Is the Seventh Prince joking? This joke is not funny."

Song Miqiu said.

"I'm not joking, I'm serious. Do you want to leave here with me?" the Seventh Prince asked again.

This time, his tone was much more serious than before.

"Thank you for your kindness, Seventh Prince, but I have not yet avenged myself, so I will not leave."

Song Miqiu didn't hide anything at all and spoke directly.

The Seventh Prince did not force the issue, and smiled slightly: "Actually, I had already guessed that you would not leave with me, but I was unwilling to give up and wanted to hear you say it yourself, so that I could finally give up."

These words left Song Miqiu speechless.

After exchanging a few words with the Seventh Prince, Song Miqiu realized that she had unknowingly returned to her own residence.

She turned to look at the Seventh Prince.

"Go inside, I should go back too," said the Seventh Prince.

Song Miqiu nodded slightly to the Seventh Prince: "Thank you for bringing me back, Seventh Prince. Take care."

After seeing Song Miqiu enter the residence, the Seventh Prince turned and left.

At this moment, Yu Huailin was sitting in her room waiting for her.

When Song Miqiu saw Yu Huailin in her room, she asked in surprise, "What are you doing in my room?"

"When did you and the Seventh Prince become so close? He even waited for you at the palace gate and saw you off to the door, and he was reluctant to part with you."

Yu Huailin frowned and asked directly, his tone tinged with jealousy.

Song Miqiu turned to look at him, and after a while asked, "You saw it?"

"They've already escorted you to the door, how could I not see them? The two of them were so reluctant to part. You've never treated me like this before. What did you two talk about?"

This was the question that Yu Huailin was most concerned about; he wanted to know what the Seventh Prince had said to Song Miqiu.

Song Miqiu didn't hide anything and told Yu Huailin what they had said directly.

"The Seventh Prince is no good person. You should stay away from him in the future. He has a lot of lives on his hands."

Yu Huailin looked at Song Miqiu very seriously and reminded her.

Song Miqiu said she knew it but felt bad inside. No matter how bad the Seventh Prince was, he had always been very good to her and had even saved her several times.

Yu Huailin breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that Song Miqiu had taken his words to heart.

Then Yu Huailin started calculating, saying directly, "You were just reluctant to part with him."

Song Miqiu never expected that he could be so childish.

"That's just basic courtesy, not some kind of reluctance to part. You're overthinking it."

“That’s reluctance to part. I saw it with both eyes. How could you lie to me? You’ve never treated me like that before.”

Yu Huailin persisted relentlessly, and his tone even carried a hint of pitifulness.

Ever since his last drunken episode, Yu Huailin has noticed that Song Miqiu is completely unable to handle pitiful people.

Song Miqiu smiled slightly as she listened to Yu Huailin's words.

"Okay, then you should leave too. I'll be reluctant to part with you."

Yu Huailin shook his head repeatedly: "Let's forget it. I'm fine here. There's no need to be reluctant to leave."

Seeing that he had finally behaved himself, Song Miqiu breathed a sigh of relief.

However, at this point, Yu Huailin continued to make his demands: "From now on, you can't do this to anyone else, not anyone at all."

"Okay, okay, I promise you."

Song Miqiu felt mentally exhausted. At first, she thought Yu Huailin was very mature, but now she realized that it must be a misperception.

Yu Huailin was happy to see that she had agreed, but he was also annoyed when he thought that she had been sent back by the Seventh Prince.

I originally wanted to tell Song Miqiu, but seeing her like this, I decided to just keep it to myself.

The next day, Song Miqiu had just started his shift when he heard that Ming Taicheng had gotten into trouble.

"Imperial Physician Song, Imperial Physician Ming has been beaten," a physician said to Song Miqiu in a trembling voice.

"Imperial Physician Ming was beaten? What happened?" Song Miqiu asked, feigning shock.

It turned out that the Empress Dowager did not accept that she had become paralyzed and thought that Ming Taicheng was useless. In anger, she gave him twenty lashes.

After learning about this, Song Miqiu hurried to visit Ming Taicheng.

At that moment, Mingtai was lying on the bed. When he saw her coming, he smiled weakly and said, "You've come."

"How are you? Are you alright? Have you put medicine on your wound?"

Song Miqiu was also upset. No matter what, Ming Taicheng was beaten up this time, and to some extent, he was the one who suffered for her.

Ming Taicheng could tell what she was thinking just by looking at her.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. It's just a minor injury. There's nothing to worry about," Ming Taicheng reassured him.

Song Miqiu said, "It seems that Physician Ming is quite popular. Twenty strokes of the cane is only a superficial injury."

“I’ll take that as a compliment,” said Ming Taicheng.

Song Miqiu secretly redeemed painkillers from the system and then gave them to Ming Taicheng.

"This is a painkiller. If the pain becomes unbearable, take one pill and it will work immediately."

Ming Taicheng took the medicine and said softly, "What? You don't trust the medicine I made myself? My painkillers are pretty good too."

“It’s not that I don’t believe in the medicine you made, it’s just that the two have different effects. In any case, it won’t harm your injury,” Song Miqiu explained.

Ming Taicheng accepted it: "Okay, thank you."

"This matter..."

Before Song Miqiu could finish speaking, Ming Taicheng interjected, "You must be careful. If you need someone else to do something for you, make sure you don't let anyone else catch you."

What you're doing is too dangerous; one wrong step and you'll be doomed.
