Chapter 284 It Is Better to Accept Deferentially.

Then Qiao Shu turned around and said to Suotu, "Go to hire a carriage. I'll take care of Concubine An. There is still some distance from the mansion of Marquis Shuo. I'm afraid that she is too weak now to walk such a long way there."

"Your Highness..." Suotu was a little hesitant after hearing Qiao Shu's words. While Qiao Shu had said that she used to cure Marquis Shuo, Suotu wouldn't believe anyone whom she met for the first time. So she looked at An Qin and asked.

An Qin nodded, "Hurry up."

"Yes, Your Highness," Suotu nodded and walked to one side.

After Suotu went away, An Qin asked Qiao Shu with a smile, "Miss Qiao, did you diagnose what happened to me just now?"

"Concubine An, don't worry too much. When I felt your pulse just now, I didn't find any big problem. The symptom appears only because you haven't been accustomed to the climate here yet as you just came to Jing City adding that you didn't have a good rest." Qiao Shu said to An Qin, smiling.

Hearing that, An Qin nodded and said, "It turns out to be like this."

"However..." Qiao Shu was looking at An Qin at that time. She frowned a little and then paused.

Seeing that, An Qin asked, "What?"

"However, the current situation of your body should be treated slowly with Chinese medicine," Qiao Shu said, looking at her.

After feeling An Qin's pulse just now, Qiao Shu couldn't help but relax much. According to the pulse condition, Infanta An Qin was still a virgin.

It seemed that Shuo Ling only followed the imperial edict to do some superficial work. In his heart, he was taking precautions against An Qin.

What she needed to do next was to catch Infanta An Qin out and send the evidence to Shuo Ling so that he could know who was really good to him. He would surely have a good impression on her again.

At this time, both Qiao Shu and An Qin had their own intentions.

An Qin said to Qiao Shu, "If this is the case, Miss Qiao, what about you being the doctor taking care of me in the future?"

"Oh..." Qiao Shu pretended to be a little awkward.

An Qin frowned slightly. Then she asked, "Why? Am I stumping you, Miss Qiao?"

"Concubine An, you've misunderstood me. I didn't mean that. I'm only worrying that my medical skills are not excellent enough..." Qiao Shu was avoiding looking at An Qin directly.

However, An Qin interrupted before Qiao Shu could finish her words, "What are you talking about? Now that Marquis Shuo trusts you so much, how will I doubt your medical skills?"

"Concubine An, since you trust me so much, I think it is better to accept deferentially," hearing An Qin's words, Qiao Shu couldn't help showing a smile. It didn't occur to her that she could gain Infanta An Qin's trust so quickly. Therefore, she said to her while nodding.

Seeing that Qiao Shu had agreed to her proposal, An Qin also felt satisfied. There were still so many things unknown to her in Jing City. However, with Qiao Shu, she could inquire much from her.

At this time, a carriage stopped in front of them. Then Suotu jumped down from the carriage and walked to An Qin, "Your Highness, I've found a carriage. We'd better go back quickly."

"Well. Sure," An Qin nodded.

Suotu and Qiao Shu helped An Qin onto the carriage.

Just when An Qin sat in the carriage, she lifted the curtain, "Miss Qiao, get on and sit with me."

"Concubine An, I don't think it's proper," Qiao Shu looked at An Qin and said.

There was a smile on An Qin's face, which was slightly pale, "I can't see why it's improper. Miss Qiao, hurry up and get in."

"Alright," Qiao Shu answered and looked at Suotu, who was standing behind her.

Qiao Shu got in the carriage. Suotu followed behind the carriage due to the limited space inside it.

Suotu had ordered the coachman to drive more slowly. Now that the infanta hadn't been fully recovered yet, she worried that the bumps on the road would affect her.

The carriage moved to the mansion of Marquis Shuo slowly. Suotu followed closely behind it. She always felt that there was something wrong with Qiao Shu, but she couldn't tell the exact reason why she thought so.

However, Suotu thought that she was merely a female doctor after all. She couldn't cause any big trouble.

Then she stopped thinking about it.

In the alley beside the road, Lan Ruojing looked at the back of the carriage with a malicious smile on his face. It seemed that Qiao Shu was really capable. She didn't expect that Infanta An Qin could be tempted so soon. It depended on Qiao Shu next.

Thinking of that, Lan Ruojing turned around and said to Si, "Let’s go."

While speaking, he walked out of the alley.

In the mansion of Marquis Shuo

The carriage stopped when it arrived at the gate of the mansion of Marquis Shuo.

Suotu hurried forward at this time, only to find that Qiao Shu had lifted the curtain and said to An Qin, "Concubine An, be careful."

An Qin nodded to her and got off the carriage first. Suotu quickly helped her out of the carriage.

Then Qiao Shu also jumped off the carriage, supporting An Qin to walk to the mansion together with Suotu.

Just when they walked to the gate, the guards cupped their hands to greet, "Concubine An."

An Qin nodded. When they intended to walk into the yard, a guard blocked Qiao Shu, "Miss Qiao, why are you visiting the mansion?"

"Her Highness suddenly got ill on her way back just now and was diagnosed and treated by Miss Qiao. Now Her Highness isn't fully recovered yet, so she asked Miss Qiao to follow us and have further treatment," Suotu said to the guard.

The guard was about to say something when Zhou Ji went to the gate after hearing the voice. He walked forward and asked, "What happened?"

"She said that Concubine An suddenly got ill on the way," a guard cupped his hands and said to Zhou Ji.

Hearing that, Zhou Ji couldn't help but frown. Then he quickly walked in front of Concubine An and inquired, "Concubine An, are you feeling well now? Is your illness severe? I'll immediately find a doctor for you."

"There's no need to bother. Thanks to Miss Qiao I met on the way. Now I'm feeling much better," An Qin looked at Zhou Ji and said.

Qiao Shu nodded to Zhou Ji while staring at him.

Zhou Ji squinted slightly. Could it really be such a coincidence?

However, judging from Infanta An Qin's appearance, she was really weak now. Maybe it was really a coincidence for them to meet Miss Qiao on the way.

Zhou Ji cupped his hands and said, "Miss Qiao, thank you so much for treating Concubine An and sending her back. Sorry that it took you such a long time."

"It doesn't matter. I also happened to meet them on the street," Qiao Shu smiled at Zhou Ji.

Suddenly, Qiao Shu felt terrible, but she returned to her normal status after a while.

Zhou Ji nodded, "If this is the case, it will bother Miss Qiao again."

"Not at all, Young Master Zhou," Qiao Shu's lips twisted slightly and said to Zhou Ji.

At this moment, Zhou Ji flashed aside to make way for them and said, "Miss Qiao, come in with Concubine An quickly."

"Okay," Qiao Shu nodded before supporting An Qin with Suotu to walk into the mansion.

After Qiao Shu walked into the mansion, she looked back at Zhou Ji. Then she continued helping An Qin walk to her yard.

As they got closer to An Qin's yard, Qiao Shu couldn't hold back her happiness.

She was too familiar with the yards in the mansion of Marquis Shuo.

The yard An Qin was living in was both far away from Shuo Ling's residence and study. Apparently, Infanta An Qin wasn't in favor with Shuo Ling.

While Qiao Shu was thinking, Suotu on the other side said to her, "Miss Qiao, you support Her Highness now. I'll go to open the door."

"Okay," Qiao Shu came back to earth at this time and responded hurriedly with a smile.

Several people walked into the house, helping An Qin to the bed and letting her lie down.

Qiao Shu sat on the front of the bed, felt An Qin's pulse again, and asked, "Concubine An, how do you feel now?"

"I'm feeling better than when I was on the street. However, my head is still a little dizzy." An Qin said to Qiao Shu.

Qiao Shu nodded and said, "Concubine An, don't worry. The symptoms are only temporary. They will disappear as long as you take a few medications and have a good rest these days."

"Thank you, Miss Qiao. Please go ahead," An Qin nodded to her.

Then Qiao Shu asked for the paper and Chinese ink to write down the prescription.

When she finished, Qiao Shu walked to An Qin and said to her, "Concubine An, I've written down the prescription. You can ask your people to fill the prescription."

"Miss Qiao, thank you so much," An Qin said with a smile and signaled to Suotu to come forward to pick up the prescription.

After Suotu got the prescription, Qiao Shu smiled slightly and said, "According to the prescription, Your Highness, you need to have the medicine twice a day, both in the morning and at night for three days in a row. If you do as I tell you, I promise that you won't have such symptoms again."

"Concubine An, if you are still worried about it, I can come to help you have a check these days," Qiao Shu added.

Hearing that, An Qin nodded naturally.

Holding the prescription, Suotu walked out of the mansion of Marquis Shuo and went towards the pharmacy.

At that time, Zhou Ji was also following her closely.

It was not long after Suotu walked into the pharmacy that she walked out of it.

Seeing her, Zhou Ji moved quickly to hide aside.

When Suotu was long gone, Zhou Ji rushed to the pharmacy directly.

He walked forward and asked, "Manager, what medicine did the girl buy just now?"

"Young man, why are you asking this?" The manager looked at Zhou Ji, frowning slightly.

Zhou Ji answered with a smile, "Manager, there's no need to be so suspicious. That girl is a servant girl in our mansion. Her mistress is ill, but she doesn't want others to know about it. My master cares about her, so he sends me to come here to check what medicine she has bought."

"I see. It seems that your master cares about a foreign woman. It's okay to tell you anyway. The prescription held by the girl just now is to help someone get accustomed to the climate here. The medicine is enough for three days." Hearing the explanation, the pharmacy manager couldn't help nodding and told Zhou Ji.

Zhou Ji frowned when he heard the manager's words. However, he soon replied with a smile, "Thank you for telling me about it."

"It's nothing," the pharmacy manager said to Zhou Ji, waving his hand.

Zhou Ji walked out of the pharmacy. He frowned. Was Infanta An Qin Unaccustomed to the climate here?

However, it was possible. It seemed that Qiao Shu and Infanta An Qin really happened to meet each other on the road.

Thinking of this, he strode towards the mansion.
