The Eighth Wise King became addicted to eavesdropping on the silly princess' thoughts

Chapter 123 Hot Spring Villa



Chapter 123 Hot Spring Villa

As for curing Wu Ji's congenital disease, the King of Qin wanted a healthy nephew who was his blood relative, while Luo Li wanted the long-awaited divorce letter. After the two sides reached an agreement, they were both eager to implement it as soon as possible.

The next day, the King of Qin went to the King of Wei's palace and had a secret discussion about the matter with his sister-in-law, the Princess of Wei.

Princess Wei's heart almost jumped out of her throat with shock!

She was so delighted that her baby son’s congenital disease could be cured and he could grow up as healthy as a normal person!

But how could anyone believe that Wu Ji, who had been diagnosed by countless doctors as having an incurable disease that would lead to premature death and for which even the skilled Ghost Hand could only prolong his life to the age of ten, could be cured by the beautiful, bright, lovely and funny silly princess from yesterday?

But she trusted her uncle, the King of Qin, who loved her nephew just as much as she did as a mother. Seeing the determination and expectation in the King of Qin's eyes, the Princess of Wei suppressed her shock and fear, and tried her best to drive away her distrust of the stupid princess. She nodded with tears in her eyes and her teeth bitten!

King Qin Zhao Defang took Wu Ji to a hot spring villa outside the city.

Luo Li was taken to the farm, she lifted the gauze curtain on the car window and admired the vast expanses of fertile fields outside.

The golden rice ears bent the rice straw, the red sorghum ears were growing in full swing, forming a dark red ocean, the ripe corn stretched as far as the eye could see, and the hardworking farmers were already busy harvesting.

The carriage arrived in front of the hot spring villa.

I saw that this villa was built on the mountain, half at the foot of the mountain and half on the mountainside.

The villa has a spacious courtyard and a tall gatehouse that is majestic and solemn. The four characters "Hot Spring Villa" on the gilded plaque are vigorous and upright, carrying a leisurely and contented aura.

The ghost-handed poison doctor who came with them said that this was the work of Sima Qingyun, that "sour pear guy".

Seeing this villa that she had heard of for a long time, Luo Li couldn't help but exclaimed!

: "Is this the manor of a landlord who owns thousands of acres of fertile land? It's really luxurious!"

The Ghost Hand Poison Doctor rolled his eyes and urged, "Master, you see this manor is vast and has beautiful buildings. There are hot springs inside to enjoy. The surrounding thousands of acres of fertile fields and several mountains are even more picturesque.

Master, why don't you change the conditions and ask for this manor and ten thousand acres of fertile land instead of curing Wu Ji's illness? That idiot King Qin will definitely agree."

Luo Li looked at him with amusement in her heart and refused bluntly!

: “No change!

If I want such a farm, I will earn money to buy it myself. If I like farms, I can buy tens of thousands of hectares of good land in the future and build eight or ten farms on it.

But freedom? This is my only chance to be free."

The Ghost Hand Poison Doctor blinked his eyes in disappointment. Unable to come up with any good ideas, he just kept silent in frustration.

Siyu's focus was not here; her excitement and delight were all in the upcoming surgery.

The carriage drove into the gate of the villa, and we saw a spacious courtyard with exquisite buildings. Pavilions, towers and ancient trees complemented each other, small bridges, flowing water and rugged rockery complemented each other, and various plants and flowers decorated the place, which was beautiful beyond words.

After getting off the car, Luo Li admired the beautiful scenery while following the Ghost Hand Poison Doctor and Siyu inside.

A pretty maidservant with exquisite clothes, along with several maids and servants, was waiting at the roadside.

After seeing Luo Li, she prostrated herself on the ground, "Your servant Xiangling pays homage to the princess!"

Luo Li waved her hand, "No need to be polite!"

Xiangling stood up and said respectfully, "Princess, the prince is waiting in Qiuyue Pavilion! I will lead you there."

Luo Li nodded, "Lead the way!"

Following Xiangling, we passed through the courtyard in front and came to a courtyard with a three-story pavilion with an exquisite exterior design.

A maidservant who was also dressed simply but looked ordinary was waiting in front of the courtyard gate with a little maidservant.

When she saw Luo Li and the others, she quickly knelt down and saluted, "I am Mo Ming, your humble servant, and I pay my respects to the princess!"

Inexplicable? Inexplicable? No question, no statement, no peace, no thunder?

After hearing this, Luo Li was immediately certain that this young woman named Momingqimiao should be one of the Qin Wang's shadow guards.

: "It's inexplicable, no need to be polite!"

I was stunned for no reason! I thought to myself, no wonder my brothers all said that the princess loved to joke.

Then he stood up with a smile on his lips and said, "Xiangling, you guys go back to the front yard! I will serve the princess."

Xiangling agreed obediently and walked back with a few maids and servants.

Mo Ming explained to the princess, "Princess, I am the manager of this manor. You can tell me if you have anything to say."

Luo Li nodded, and became more certain of this inexplicable identity. She must be one of the King of Qin's shadow guards.

[I didn’t expect there was a woman among the Qin King’s shadow guards?

I don't know what her abilities are. If I trick her into working as a personal laborer, will she be more suitable for me?

You've been thinking too much. After Xiao Wu Ji's surgery, I can leave the Qin Palace with the divorce papers.

The excellent coolies in the Prince Qin's Palace have no chance with me!

Or work hard to train your own Big Foot Women's Army! 】

As Luo Li walked and thought, she actually felt a little reluctant to leave those excellent laborers who were easy to use.

When people get along with each other for a long time, it is inevitable that they will develop feelings for each other!

Prince Qin Zhao Defang stood tall and straight like a pine tree, with a gentle smile on his handsome face. He was waiting in front of the door with Xiao Wuji in his hand.

"Auntie Huang!"

Xiao Wuji shouted happily, then trotted over and stopped in front of Luo Li. After bowing, he looked up at Luo Li with a happy and affectionate smile in his eyes.

Luo Li leaned over and hugged him, "Wu Ji, a day without seeing you feels like three autumns. We haven't seen each other for almost two autumns. Do you miss me?"

Little Wuji smiled with curved eyebrows and hugged Luo Li's neck affectionately, "I miss you, Auntie Huang, for two whole autumns."

Xiao Wuji is more mature and stable than other children of the same age, but he has no objection to being held by adults.

Maybe he has gotten used to being carried when walking since he was a child because of his heart disease?

Princess Wei was waiting in the room. After not seeing her for a night, she seemed even more haggard and weak.

Yes! Any mother would be worried and anxious all night long after making a difficult choice to undergo such an unprecedented surgery on her son.

Princess Wei stood up tremblingly, her body as weak as a willow branch, walked up to Luo Li and held her hand.

Tears welled up in her eyes and her voice trembled: "Luo Li, I leave my healthy child in your care!"

Luo Li patted the back of her slightly cold hand, trying to comfort her with a few words, but this was not something that could be guaranteed with empty promises.

Surgery is always risky. She tried several times last night but couldn't get the extracorporeal blood circulation machine out of the space. Moreover, in this situation where there is no qualified sterile operating room, anything can happen.

Luo Li helped her sit down at the table and said with a hard heart, "Sister-in-law, Your Highness Prince Qin, although I can perform surgery on Wu Ji, the probability of success and failure is 50% each.

You should understand what it means if the operation fails?

So, please think carefully again, whether you should have this operation?"

Princess Wei, who was already worried, became even more conflicted after hearing this!

Her face was pale, and she slumped limply in the chair, her hands and bloodless lips trembling slightly, unable to speak.

Prince of Qin Zhao Defang also looked at the emperor's sister-in-law in silence, hoping that she would be strong enough to make a decisive and wise choice.

Xiao Wuji held Luo Li's hand, looked up at her, and his dark and bright eyes were firm!

“Aunt Imperial, Wu Ji’s congenital disease cannot be cured by medicine. Grandpa Ghost Hand has exhausted all his efforts to prepare medicinal materials for me, but he can only delay my life to about ten years old.

Aunt Huang, you are 50% sure. How can Wu Ji give up the chance to live in good health because of the fear of that 50% chance of failure?

Even if I fail, I will just die a few years earlier or later!"

It is amazing that a child so young is so insightful and can remain indifferent to matters of life and death.

Luo Li was somewhat moved and touched his head, "Wu Ji, I will do my best."

Zhao Wuji nodded, "Aunt, I'm not afraid! Don't be too stressed. Life and death are all fate!"

Even though Princess Wei was extremely nervous, worried and fearful, she had no choice but to take a gamble under the huge temptation of her son being able to survive and grow up healthy!

Luo Li brought Wu Ji upstairs and told Hong Gu and Si Yu to guard the door.

"Wu Ji, you take a nap first, I'll check you up, okay?" Luo Li asked softly and dotingly.

: "Okay! Thank you, Imperial Aunt." Zhao Wuji took off his shoes obediently, climbed onto the bed, smiled at the Imperial Aunt, and closed his eyes in relaxation.

Luo Li let him inhale a sip of inhalation anesthetic, and Xiao Wuji was immediately anesthetized.

Luo Li's spiritual consciousness entered the space, moved out a battery, and after a lot of effort, she finally got out the ultrasound machine.

Now she completely understood that this space was limited to her. She couldn't move things normally with her spiritual sense clone.

After connecting the power supply, Luo Li turned on the machine and performed an ultrasound examination on Xiao Wuji.

As she had expected based on her experience, Xiao Wuji was a child with congenital heart disease, tetralogy of Fallot, a severe condition that was difficult to operate on.

Luo Li examined it carefully, and a surgical plan had already formed in her mind.

An extracorporeal blood circulation machine could not be developed and the conditions were limited, so the surgery could only be performed using the technology of keeping the heart beating.

Luo Li struggled to send the machine into the space, then opened the door and walked out.

The Ghost Hand Poison Doctor was peeking out of the door with an anxious look on his face. Hong Gu pointed the steel sword in his hand at him, not allowing him to go beyond the line!

"Master, what's the situation? How did you examine Wu Ji?" the Ghost Hand Poison Doctor asked impatiently.

Luo Li said calmly, "Today I will give you and Siyu a lecture and training. You two will be my assistants during the operation tomorrow."

The master's words were like the Buddhist chants from heaven. Ghost Hand Poison Doctor and Siyu were both excited and ecstatic!

The Ghost Hand Poison Doctor's old face was filled with a flattering smile, and he bowed deeply! "Thank you, Master, for your cultivation!"
