Long Live the Empress

Chapter 150 Preventing Plague

"Stop!" Yue Jinghao shouted angrily, and the maids stopped rubbing salt on Yue Yuyan. They just turned around and glanced at Yue Jinghong, not knowing what to do.

Yue Jinghao looked at Yue Yuyan, who was tortured beyond recognition on the ground, and a hint of shock appeared on her usually calm face.

In her previous life, after Yue Jinghao married Wei Zilin, she had seen all kinds of torturous punishments, and the Tiger and Leopard Playing with Spring was the most cruel one. Now Yue Jinghong actually used such a vicious punishment against Yue Yuyan, which was simply outrageous!

"Big sister is here!" Yue Jinghong was also fearless against Yue Jinghao. Now Yue Jinghao had nothing but the title of the daughter of the Yue family, so she had no right to fight her! "Big sister, what's the matter?"

Yue Jinghao pointed at Yue Yuyan on the ground and asked, "What did the third sister do wrong that you treat her like this?"

Yue Jinghong adjusted the hairpin on her head and snorted disdainfully, "Big sister, you should take care of yourself first! Because of your bad reputation, I, your younger sister, am too embarrassed to go out!"

"You!" Manju wanted to refute Yue Jinghong when she heard Yue Jinghong insult Yue Jinghao, but was stopped by Yue Jinghao. "My affairs will be resolved! Second sister, don't worry. I heard that the Crown Prince is very close to my second sister now. If the Crown Prince knew that my second sister treated his sister like this, I wonder how he would feel?"

Yue Jinghong stood up from the stone bench, clenched her teeth, and stared at Yue Jinghao. "Big sister, why don't you give it a try! See who the prince will believe!"

"It doesn't matter whether the prince believes me or not, as long as he has doubts in his heart! Second sister, don't you think so?" Yue Jinghao took a step forward and only forced Yue Jinghong back one step.

Yue Jinghong clenched and unclenched her hands, "Let's go!" Then all the maids followed Yue Jinghong and left.

Yue Jinghao quickly asked Ma Ao and Nanny Qin to lift Yue Yuyan up from the ground and put her on the couch. "Go get a female doctor!"

Nanny Qin hurried out to tell the maid. Manju asked someone to bring a basin of hot water and gently wiped Yue Yuyan's wound.

The wound, which was already bleeding profusely, was rubbed with salt for a long time, and now Yue Yuyan looked like a piece of meat being pickled.

Manjue sighed as she wiped it, "This Second Miss is too cruel! After all, Third Miss is her biological sister, how could she be so cruel!"

Why not? In the previous life, Yue Jinghong also robbed Yue Jinghao's husband and killed Yue Jinghao with a sword! Compared with Yue Yuyan, Yue Jinghao is more pitiful and sad!

"Miss, what kind of punishment is this? It's so severe!" Agate was concentrating on wiping Yue Yuyan's wound and didn't notice Yue Jinghao's abnormality.

Yue Jinghao came back to her senses and said calmly, "He is knowledgeable enough to resist criticism and eloquent enough to cover up his mistakes. He boasts of his ministers' abilities and praises the world for his reputation, thinking that they are all inferior to him. He likes wine and sex, and favors women. He loves Daji, and follows Daji's words. He enjoys the dance of Beili and the lewd music. The people are resentful and some princes rebel, so King Zhou punishes them severely, including the law of burning with fire! In fact, King Zhou not only used the punishment of burning with fire, but also the tiger and leopard playing with spring."

Manjue felt cold sweat on her back after hearing this. Yue Jinghong was simply extremely vicious! "Miss, we must be careful of the Second Miss in the future. Don't let her have the opportunity to use these vicious methods in Jinyu Garden!"

Yue Jinghao didn't say anything, but just used a handkerchief to wipe the cold sweat off Yue Yuyan's head.

After an incense stick, a female doctor came. The female doctor was about fifty years old. When she saw Yue Yuyan's injury, she was immediately shocked. "How...how did you get this injury?"

Yue Jinghao just said that he was bitten by a rat and asked the female doctor to prescribe some medicine to prevent the plague.

The female doctor knew very well that the wealthy families had many unspeakable secrets, so she did not ask any more questions. She wrote a prescription and asked the maid to boil the medicine first.

Then the female doctor checked Yue Yuyan's pulse and said, "This young lady was frightened and lost too much blood. After I heal her, I will prescribe some blood-replenishing and soothing medicine! But...but this wound has been stained with salt, I'm afraid...it will leave a scar in the future..."

Yue Jinghao had anticipated such a result a long time ago, so the most important thing at this moment is to cure Yue Yuyan!

Yue Jinghao nodded, and asked Manju to help the female doctor apply medicine to Yue Yuyan.

“It hurts…” Yue Yuyan cried out in pain unconsciously, and her body twitched slightly.

Yue Jinghao quickly stroked Yue Yuyan's hair and consoled her, "Third sister, bear with it! I'll ask the doctor to act faster!"

Yue Yuyan seemed to hear Yue Jinghao's comfort, and then she fainted again.

The female doctor and Agate moved very quickly, and it only took them half a cup of tea to finish applying the medicine.

The female doctor also prescribed some blood-replenishing and nerve-soothing medicine, and repeatedly reminded me to take the medicine to prevent the plague, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

Only after Manju made repeated assurances did the female doctor leave with peace of mind.
