After refusing marriage, she was pampered by the prince who acted as a shield.

Chapter 157: Recovery

"Alright, the poison in the princess's body is not serious. As long as we give her acupuncture immediately, she will recover in no time."

As he spoke, he began to treat Lin Rusi.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Lin Rusi's complexion to gradually improve, and she was no longer as pale as before.

"The poison in the princess's body has been neutralized."

As the black blood flowed out, Lin Rusi's complexion returned to normal and became rosy.

Li Jingyang then felt much more at ease.

"Is everything alright now?"

"Yes, the princess is a woman, so the poison will not be as harmful to her as it is to you. This will be enough to expel all the toxins from her body."

Ye Ruoruo gave a very serious answer.

"But what exactly is going on? Why are they using her to detoxify me?"

Li Jingyang also felt it was too much to bear.

Looking at Lin Rusi, he only felt heartache.

"There was no other way just now. Originally, I was going to find any palace maid to detoxify you, but the princess felt sorry for those poor people, so she didn't agree."

Ye Ruoruo answered the question.

She quickly told him the whole story.

Upon hearing this, Li Jingyang's expression grew even more unpleasant.

"How can I make such a decision so easily? Even if I were to die from poisoning, I don't want her to be at any risk because of me."

He also felt a little uneasy.

But now that it has happened, there's no other way.

"You should know that if you hadn't been given the antidote in time, you might be dead now. But don't worry, the princess is fine and will recover soon."

"Your method of saving people is far too dangerous. If something really happens, who can bear the responsibility?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Ruoruo rolled her eyes at him.

"Do you think I wanted to save you? Even if you are a prince, you haven't even said a word of thanks since you woke up, and you keep blaming me. What kind of logic is this?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Ruoruo felt somewhat uncomfortable.

Upon hearing this, Li Jingyang's expression grew even more unpleasant.

For him, Lin Rusi's safety was more important than his own life.

"Never mind, as long as the princess is alright, that's all that matters. What I said earlier was my fault."

The emperor's men were all quite anxious and were waiting outside.

Only then did they receive the message from the imperial physician.

"Your Majesty, the Prince's health is no longer a major concern."

Upon hearing this, the emperor's expression softened considerably.

Is this really true?

“It is absolutely true. If Your Majesty is not comfortable with it, you can go and find out for yourself.”

"it is good!"

The emperor and empress were finally relieved and then came outside the room.

"Ninth Brother, have you recovered?"

When the emperor entered the room and saw that his younger brother's complexion was much better than before, he was finally relieved.

"Is Rusi alright?"

The Empress looked at Lin Rusi lying on the bed and felt a little worried.

Ye Ruoruo shook her head.

"Don't worry, the princess only fell into a coma temporarily and is fine. She will wake up in a little while."

After saying this, the emperor's expression softened considerably, and he looked at Ye Ruoruo with satisfaction.

"Miss Ye, I never expected you to have such superb medical skills at such a young age. Now that you have saved my brother, is there any reward you would like?"

No.

Ye Ruoruo just happened to be passing by, and besides, she was quite interested in the matter of detoxification.

So I saved a life.

The girl's expression was indifferent, as if she had no interest in what the emperor was saying.

"I see that your medical skills are superb. It would be a waste if they were left to languish among the common people! If you are willing, I can grant you special permission to enter the Imperial Medical Academy."

At this point, the emperor took the initiative to speak.

"No, I have never liked being bound by these rules and regulations. As soon as the princess wakes up, I will leave the palace immediately. As for the so-called rewards, these are not what I need."

After Ye Ruoruo finished speaking, everyone present gasped.

Such favor is something most girls wouldn't even dare to dream of, but unexpectedly, Ye Ruoruo directly refused.

"As expected, you have a temper. Since that's the case, I won't force you to do anything more. But from now on, if you want anything, just tell me directly, and I will definitely grant it to you."

The emperor spoke at this moment, but Ye Ruoruo didn't care about the matter at all.

After a while, Lin Rusi, who was lying on the bed, finally opened her eyes.

"You're finally awake! Are you alright?"

Li Jingyang looked at her with concern, and Lin Rusi shook her head.

"I'm fine, young lady. How is he?"

"He's all better now, so don't worry."

Sure enough, after receiving this answer, the emperor's expression improved considerably.

“Young lady, thanks to you this time, we were able to completely get rid of the poison in our bodies. We are extremely grateful for your life-saving grace.”

After saying this, Lin Rusi was filled with gratitude for the matter.

However, Ye Ruoruo didn't care.

"Practicing medicine and saving lives is the duty of us doctors. Now that you two have recovered, I can retire gracefully."

After saying this, he handed the prescription he had written to Li Jingyang.

"If you take this medicine for another half month, the toxins in your body will be completely eliminated."

Upon hearing Ye Ruoruo's words, the two nodded silently.

Lin Rusi looked at her, and for some reason, she felt that she couldn't let Ye Ruoruo leave so easily.

“Young lady, you saved both of our lives this time, and we have nothing to thank you for. Why don’t you stay in the capital for a while longer? Then I can personally take you to see other places.”

Lin Rusi could also tell that the girl in front of her didn't care about these material possessions.

That's why such a request was made.

Ye Ruoruo did not resist when she heard this.

Having come all this way to the capital, it would be a good thing to be able to look around.

"But... I also promised my master that I would return in time. Never mind, it's nothing. I'll stay here for a couple more days. Thank you for your hospitality, Your Highness."

Ye Ruoruo agreed, and Lin Rusi felt relieved.

Once Li Jingyang had recovered sufficiently, he led them back to the Prince's residence.

Ye Ruoruo was arranged to stay in a courtyard in the mansion.

Looking at the palace before her, Ye Ruoruo was filled with curiosity.

"This place is quite nice, even more tasteful than the royal palace."
