Chapter 17 Medicinal Bath
Xiao Wenyin's heart was in a panic, she knew very well what Zheng Fengyun's words meant.
He called Gu Qinlan mother, which meant that he had begun to accept her and might even stand on her side.
Wouldn't her plan be affected in this case?
"Feng Yun, I'm just worried about you." Xiao Wenyin forced a smile, trying to hide her feelings.
Zheng Fengyun looked at Xiao Wenyin, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.
"Sister Xiao, I know what you mean, but I hope you can understand me." Zheng Fengyun said in a firm tone.
Xiao Wenyin bit her lower lip, a trace of struggle flashing in her eyes.
She couldn't let Zheng Fengyun go on like this, otherwise, her plan would be greatly affected.
So, Xiao Wenyin put on a worried look, looked at Zheng Fengyun without blinking, and said: "Fengyun, listen to me, you are the second son of the Duke of Duan's Mansion, you are of noble status, why should you be afraid of anyone? If you have any grievances, just tell me, I will take care of it for you."
Zheng Fengyun pursed his lips tightly, a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes. He glanced at Xiao Wenyin coldly and said in a cold tone: "Sister Xiao, I know that I am of noble status, but my mother has her reasons for punishing me. I don't need you to tell me this."
Xiao Wenyin's face changed slightly. She tried to get closer to Zheng Fengyun and gently held his hand: "Fengyun, listen to what your sister said. It's hard to paint the bones of a tiger even if you paint its skin. You can know a person's face but not his heart..."
Zheng Fengyun pulled back his hand, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes: "Sister Xiao, you are wrong. Mother punished me because she felt that I made a mistake and I should be punished. Besides, she also gave me my favorite dragon tongue bow and blood stasis medicine, which shows that she still cares about you. But you, ever since I was punished, you have been saying bad things about mother, but you have never really cared about my feelings."
Xiao Wenyin was stunned. She bit her lip and tried to explain: "Feng Yun, I... I'm just worried about you. I'm afraid you'll feel uncomfortable. I don't mean anything else."
Zheng Fengyun sighed softly, with a helpless look in his eyes: "Sister Xiao, I know you mean well, but I'm really tired. What I need now is quietness, not your comfort."
Xiao Wenyin's eyes flashed with disappointment. She looked at Zheng Fengyun with mixed feelings. She forced a smile and said, "Okay, Fengyun, if you are tired, go and rest. I won't bother you anymore."
Zheng Fengyun nodded, turned around and left quickly.
Xiao Wenyin looked at his back and immediately frowned, with a trace of anger and disappointment that was difficult to conceal in her eyes.
She took a deep breath and turned back into the house. The maid Wenqin immediately chased after her and asked cautiously, "Miss, what's wrong with you? You look so bad."
Xiao Wenyin glanced at Wenqin coldly, her tone trembling: "Wenqin, did you see that? Zheng Fengyun...he actually left like that. She was so distant and impatient with me!"
Wenqin was slightly stunned, and immediately comforted her: "Miss, maybe the second young master has his own difficulties, we shouldn't get angry with him easily."
Xiao Wenyin's eyes widened, her face becoming even gloomier: "Difficulties? What difficulties could he have? He is clearly biased towards Gu Qinlan and already looks down on me!"
Wenqin bit her lower lip and asked cautiously, "Miss, what should we do now?"
Xiao Wenyin was silent for a moment, with a sly light flashing in her eyes: "Wenqin, I have an idea, maybe we can strike a blow to Gu Qinlan and help us regain our foothold in Prince Duan's Mansion."
Wenqin asked curiously, "Miss, what's the idea?"
Xiao Wenyin smiled slightly, but there was a hint of coldness in her eyes: "I plan to use the excuse of being unwell to prevent the eldest young master from accompanying Princess Duan Gu Qinlan back home tomorrow. This way, it will arouse the suspicion of the people in the capital and make them think that the Prince Duan's Mansion does not value Gu Qinlan, and then her position as Princess Duan will be shaken."
Wenqin was stunned and worriedly advised: "Miss, this is a risky move. If the old princess finds out, we will be in trouble."
Xiao Wenyin sneered: "Don't worry, I will do it very secretly and won't let anyone find out. Moreover, as long as this plan succeeds, we can ruin Gu Qinlan's reputation in the capital, and her status in Prince Duan's Mansion will also be affected."
Wenqin hesitated for a moment: "Miss, I think we should still value peace. After all, the reputation of Prince Duan's Mansion is also very important to us."
Xiao Wenyin glared at Wenqin and said sternly, "Wenqin, what do you know? In this chaotic world, the law of the jungle is the only rule. If we don't take the initiative, we will be trampled underfoot by others. I have decided that you must help me complete this plan."
Wenqin didn't dare to speak anymore, she could only lower her head and said, "Yes, Miss."
……
The next day, the early morning sunlight shone through the window lattices of Jinghong Garden and sprinkled into the medicine bath room of Prince Duan's Mansion.
As usual, Nanny Gui came here carrying Zheng Huiyi and asked Gu Qinlan to give Zheng Huiyi acupuncture and a medicinal bath.
Gu Qinlan sat in the middle of the medicine bath, with a calm expression, and skillfully sealed several acupuncture points for Zheng Huiyi. Zheng Huiyi frowned in pain, with a trace of fear in her eyes.
Nanny Gui looked at Zheng Huiyi, shook her head helplessly, and said softly to Gu Qinlan: "Princess, look at this child. You sealed his acupuncture points yesterday, and today he is afraid of the medicinal bath. It's really a headache."
Gu Qinlan frowned slightly, looked at Zheng Huiyi with tears in her eyes, and asked softly: "Huiyi, do you really not want to take a medicinal bath?"
Zheng Huiyi trembled slightly and whispered: "Princess, I'm afraid of pain..."
Gu Qinlan heard this, a trace of pity flashed in his eyes, but he said firmly: "Huiyi, this medicinal bath is good for your body, you must take a bath. I will seal your mute point again so that you will not feel pain during the medicinal bath."
When Zheng Huiyi heard the words "sealing the mute point", she burst into tears out of fear and begged, "Princess, please don't stab me, I... I'm really afraid of the pain!"
Gu Qinlan looked at Zheng Huiyi's frightened expression, and her heart softened. After thinking for a while, she smiled and said, "How about this, as long as you finish taking the medicinal bath, I will bring you a box of lotus cakes. How about it?"
When Zheng Huiyi heard that there were lotus crisps to eat, her eyes immediately lit up and she nodded quickly, saying, "Princess, I am willing to go in the water."
After saying that, Zheng Huiyi quickly climbed into the medicinal bath tub, and Gu Qinlan prepared the medicinal bath water for her.
Nanny Gui looked at this scene and secretly admired Princess Duan in her heart. She really knew how to coax a child!
In the medicine room, Zheng Huiyi soaked in the warm medicine, and her expression gradually became calm.
Gu Qinlan stood aside, looking at her, and couldn't help thinking of her childhood. At that time, she was also weak and sickly, and she was also afraid of this medicinal bath, and she also compromised because of the lotus cakes rewarded by her mother.
