Chapter 156 Urging Jian Ye Shen to Leave
Chapter 156 Urging Jian Ye Shen to Leave
He Jingcheng completely ignored He Tingxi's words and continued to do as he pleased.
"You are wrong, my brother. I just want to help you. As a brother, how can I not share the burden for my brother? I will tell my father about this. I believe he will approve of my approach. Please don't refuse me, my brother."
Seeing He Jingcheng's stubborn attitude, He Tingxi said nothing more. He knew that if he continued talking, He Jingcheng would still insist on escorting him.
"It's up to you." He Tingxi said helplessly.
"Royal brother, you must tell me the date when Doctor Jian returns." He Jingcheng reminded.
"Let's talk about it later." He Tingxi said perfunctorily.
"I will inform father about the escort. I believe he will praise me." He Jingcheng deliberately reminded.
"Okay, I'll let you know once the date is confirmed." He Tingxi had a blank expression on his face, but he was very angry in his heart.
"Okay, I'll wait for news from my brother." He Jingcheng gave He Tingxi an evil smile, then looked at Jian Yeshen and said with a smile, "Divine Doctor Jian, see you then."
"Farewell, His Royal Highness Prince Lu." Jian Ye bowed and nodded.
"Ah."
He Jingcheng took Su Mei's hand, returned to his seat, put down his wine glass, and left the hall with Su Mei.
As He Jingcheng and Su Mei left, the people in the hall began to shift their attention and no longer stared at He Tingxi and the others.
Some people also followed He Jingcheng out of the hall.
After He Jingcheng and the others left, Ling Xiu and Ling Junqi left their seats together and walked towards He Tingxi.
Ling Xiyue was the first to see Ling Xiu and the others. She said, "Father, brother."
He Tingxi and Jian Yeshen heard the voice, turned around and looked at Ling Xiu and the others.
"Your Highness." After Ling Xiu and Ling Junqi saluted, they nodded to Doctor Jian.
Jian Ye Shen also nodded politely.
"Minister Ling, Junqi, are you ready to go back?" He Tingxi asked.
"Yes, Your Highness, are you coming too?" Ling Xiu nodded in response.
He Tingxi glanced at the whole place and nodded, "Okay, let's go back together."
"Yes." Ling Xiu replied.
He Tingxi turned around and held Ling Xiyue's arm, "Xiyue, let's go back."
"Okay." Ling Xiyue followed He Tingxi and walked out of her seat.
Leaving the hall, on the way out of the palace, Ling Xiu walked beside He Tingxi and asked tentatively: "Your Highness, why do I feel that His Highness Prince Lu seems to be deliberately urging Doctor Jian to go back?"
Hearing this, He Tingxi glanced at Ling Xiu, then looked forward and smiled coldly.
"It's not like, it's what it was. When he saw that Brother Jian didn't agree to treat his concubine, he got angry and wanted to send Brother Jian away."
"Whether Doctor Jian returns or not, what impact will it have on King Lu? I am very puzzled." Ling Xiu continued to ask.
He Tingxi was silent for a while before he slowly said, "He probably doesn't want Doctor Jian to stay with me and take care of me, right?"
Ling Xiu was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "That should be the case."
"Don't pay attention to him, he is just that kind of person." He Tingxi said lightly, and then said nothing more.
Ling Xiu didn't ask any more questions.
Ling Xiyue glanced at He Tingxi and frowned slightly, but when she saw Ling Xiu was there, she didn't say anything.
After leaving the palace, they each got on their own carriages and returned to their respective residences.
He Tingxi, Ling Xiyue and Jian Ye Shen took a carriage back to Prince Yan's Mansion together.
Ling Xiyue sat next to He Tingxi. She thought about what happened just now and guessed, "Your Highness, I always feel that Prince Lu urged Doctor Jian to go back because of me."
He Tingxi looked at Ling Xiyue with some surprise in his eyes.
"Why do you think so?"
"Because he said that before sending Doctor Jian back, he looked at my belly, so I think he didn't want Doctor Jian to stay until the day I give birth." Ling Xiyue analyzed.
He Tingxi smiled when he heard this. He couldn't help but touch Ling Xiyue's face with his hand and said lovingly, "You are very careful. It is indeed as you said. This is what he meant."
"Did I guess right?" Ling Xiyue said in surprise, with a hint of pride in her eyes.
"Well, you guessed right." He Tingxi nodded, still reluctant to put down his hand that was touching his face.
Jian Ye Shen, who was sitting next to them, saw He Tingxi and Ling Xiyue "showing off their love" in front of him. He smiled helplessly, lowered his eyes and stopped watching.
Ling Xiyue saw Jian Yeshen's reaction out of the corner of her eye and suddenly felt embarrassed. She quickly took He Tingxi's hand and signaled He Tingxi with her eyes.
He Tingxi finally reacted and smiled awkwardly.
"Your Highness, then why didn't you tell my father that it was because of me?" Ling Xiyue continued to ask.
"If I tell Minister Ling that it's your fault, he will definitely be worried about you, right?" He Tingxi asked back.
"Right."
Ling Xiyue nodded, and after a pause, she sighed slightly, "But, according to Prince Lu's character, he will definitely mention it to His Majesty, and he will definitely not let Doctor Jian stay in Prince Yan's Mansion for too long."
He Tingxi's face gradually darkened, and he became angry when he thought of He Jingcheng.
"When he saw that I didn't agree with Brother Jian treating Su Mei, he thought of other ways to retaliate against me. He knew that I was worried about you and would definitely keep Brother Jian until you gave birth, so he urged Brother Jian to leave."
When Jian Ye Shen heard him being mentioned, he looked up at He Tingxi and asked, "Your Highness, the behavior of the King of Lu may be due to what happened in the past few days."
"Well, it's very likely. He doesn't like to procrastinate, so in the next few days, he will try every means to get you, Brother Jian, to leave." He Tingxi nodded.
Jian Ye Shen was feeling a little depressed, with some reluctance in his eyes.
"It seems that I won't be able to wait until the day when the queen gives birth. Your Highness, I am so sorry."
He Tingxi sensed Jian Yeshen's mood, and he comforted him, "Brother Jian, I miss you living a carefree life in your hometown. It was me who brought you to this complicated capital city and asked you to accompany me to many banquets that you didn't want to attend. I owe you. It's good like this now. It's also a good thing to go back early. After all, many people here will miss Brother Jian's medical skills and always think of various reasons to ask Brother Jian to treat their illnesses."
Hearing this, Ling Xiyue also nodded in agreement, "Yes, it's a good thing to go back early. Many people come to see Doctor Jian for treatment with selfish motives. These people can't be helped. If they can be cured, it's fine. If there are any problems with the treatment, they will definitely make a big fuss."
Jian Ye nodded and said nothing.
"Brother Jian, I will help you prepare for your return in the next few days, right?" He Tingxi said.
"Okay, thank you, Your Highness." Jian Ye responded politely.
After returning to Prince Yan's Mansion, Jian Ye Shen went straight back to his room.
He Tingxi supported Ling Xiyue and walked towards the yard.
Back in the room, He Tingxi helped Ling Xiyue sit down, and then he sat next to her.
Seeing Xiaoyin and other maids still standing in the room, He Tingxi sent Xiaoyin and the others out as he wanted to have a detailed chat with Ling Xiyue.
