The Grand Secretary's Pampered wife

Liu Yisheng?

This name sounded familiar.

But for a while, Gu Jiao couldn’t remember where she had heard it.

Gu Jiao had someone take out new medicine for him and let him pay for it again.

Liu Yisheng, holding the new medicine bags, staggered away.

But he had just taken two steps when he suddenly turned around and said, "You probably shouldn't have helped me treat my disease."

He had been deceived so many times. Every time he was hopeful, he only ended up disappointed.

But this time, he could tell that the medicine she gave him was real.

He had hoped countless times that the medicine given to him by those people was real, but at this moment, he wished it was fake.

Liu Yisheng walked away.

Gu Jiao walked back into the medical hall. Inside, except the baffled Physician Song and Shopkeeper Wang, all the staff that was a local of the capital bowed their heads and dared not utter a word.

"Little Gu! I'm back!"

Second Owner entered the medical hall with a beaming face, saying, "Things are really different when you have money. You can speak confidently! Eh? What's the matter with you guys? All of you look so pale, is something wrong?"

Shopkeeper Wang, who was still confused, said, "A patient named Liu Yisheng came just now. He was picked on by others, and then told Gu girl that she shouldn’t have helped him treat his disease.”

Second Owner's expression changed at once, "So, Little Gu helped him?"

Shopkeeper Wang replied, "Yes, and she also had cleaned up those bastards."

Second Owner felt like choking, his eyes rolled back and he fainted!

When Second Owner woke up, he was already lying in his sitting room on the second floor. He hurried downstairs to find Gu Jiao.

The medicine boy had gone to eat, and Gu Jiao was prescribing medicine for a patient.

Second Owner grabbed her wrist and said, "Little Song, come here and prescribe medicine for this patient."

"All right!" Physician Song put down the half-dried herbs in the backyard and went back to the lobby to get medicine for people.

Second Owner took Gu Jiao to the backyard.

He regarded Gu Jiao as his own little sister and didn't have any crooked thoughts.

He said to Gu Jiao, "Tell me what the Liu Yisheng you saw today looks like?"

"Nice." Gu Jiao answered.

Second Owner was aware of the taste of his family’s Little Gu. There was the incomparably handsome Xiao Liulang as well as the beautiful youngster Gu Yan by her side, and yet the other party’s looks were still praised by her. It seemed that that person was really the rumored Liu Yisheng.

Second Owner suddenly felt despair, "It's over, it's completely over..."

Gu Jiao asked, "What is the origin of this Liu Yisheng? Why can't we treat him?"

"He's from the family of the deposed Crown Prince!" Second Owner had a bitter look on his face as he shared the political situation in the capital with Gu Jiao. "The Crown Prince back then wasn’t the current Emperor, but the son of then Imperial Consort Liu. Later, Empress Dowager Zhuang defeated the Liu Family, deposed the Crown Prince, and helped the adopted son of then Imperial Concubine Jing to the throne."

Gu Jiao listened carefully.

Second Owner continued, "The Liu Family was unconvinced and went so far as to assassinate the present Emperor. Not only did they loathe the victorious Emperor and Empress Dowager, they even secretly had someone make a dragon robe for the deposed Crown Prince. After that incident, the Liu Family was either beheaded or exiled. The former Crown Prince and Crown Princess were locked up and both died in a few years.”

“The evidence of this matter was so conclusive that no one dared to speak for the Liu Family in court. This Liu Yisheng is the only eldest son of the Liu Family. Now, do you understand why the physicians in the capital are afraid to treat him?"

Gu Jiao snorted. No wonder all the prescriptions he got before were fake.

Second Owner glanced askance at his family’s Little Gu, "Don't you have anything to say?"

For example, regret for her actions. Why did she even want to save this disaster that everyone did their best to avoid?

Gu Jiao thought for a moment and said seriously, "Oh, put less salt in tomorrow's meal. It's too salty."

Second Owner：“…”

Gu Jiao continued to sort out the medicinal herbs, and then went back to her personal yard to drink tea afterwards.

The moment she picked up the tea cup, her mind flashed.

"I remember where I heard this name."

In her dream.

It was in her miserable dream wherein the timid and weak her returned to the Marquis Estate.

Later, she lived in the countryside villa for ten years without anyone asking about her well-being. The year before she died, there was a heavy snowstorm and a group of people caught in it passed by and took refuge in the villa for a while.

At that time, a man in his early thirties, wearing brocade robes, asked her for a cup of hot tea.

The man had a strong presence, exuding a noble and aggressive air, and his every move and gesture revealed the sternness of a superior.

He thanked her in a sincere tone, "Many thanks for the tea."

She accidentally touched his fingertips when she took back the teacup.

It was as cold as a dead bone.

An hour later, the snowstorm stopped and he left with his guards.

Before getting on the carriage, she vaguely heard someone calling him... Prime Minister Liu.

……

As the saying went, ‘good news stays indoors while bad news spreads out fast.’

The story of Liu Yisheng being helped by Miraculous Hands Hall to treat his disease quickly spread out, and many people came to Miraculous Hands Hall to watch the scene of bustle in the afternoon.

Sure enough, this group of onlookers didn’t end up disappointed.

By the hour of youshi(5-7 pm), the big fellow who had been beaten all over the ground by Gu Jiao came back, with a team of guards around him.

The guards didn’t look like they worked for the governement, but more like the guards of some big family.

The big fellow waved his hand and glared at Gu Jiao, "Lord Tong! That's her! She beat us all up!"

The leading guard, called Lord Tong, looked in the direction he pointed out, only to see a girl of fourteen or fifteen years of age. He couldn't help wondering, "Which one?"

"It’s her! That girl!" The big fellow said.

Guard Tong furrowed his brows as he looked at Gu Jiao, then at the big fellow, "Are you telling me that you have been beaten into a dog by a little girl?"

What, what dog?

The big fellow refused to admit it!

But recalling how they were looking for their teeth all over the ground earlier, they were really no better than a stray dog.

Guard Tong asked, "Are there any other experts behind her?"

She beat them all up by herself?

He didn’t believe it.

The big fellow was so frustrated that he almost suffered from excessive internal heat, "My Lord! It's really her!"

Guard Tong, along with other guards, walked over and entered the medical hall. The onlookers immediately gathered around, blocking the entrance of the medical hall.

"I heard that you beat up someone." Guard Tong looked at Gu Jiao who was reviewing the account book behind the counter and said.

Gu Jiao turned over a page of the account book and didn't pay attention to anyone at all.

Seeing this, Second Owner stepped forward and hastily smiled, "My Lord, it's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!"

"What misunderstanding? She beat up this Grandpa and this Grandpa’s brothers like this. Are you blind?" Having someone backing him up, the big fellow’s guts rose greatly.
