World-shaking First Daughter: Powerful Medical Princess

Meng Xiuwen smiled at Su Muge with his misty amorous eyes looking at her, and sat in front of Su Muge like they were familiar with each other.

Although Su Muge wanted to make a name for herself regarding her medical skills by taking advantage of the Meng Mansion, it didn’t mean she wanted to get much involvement with this family.

She could easily tell the probe and doubt from Meng Xiuwen a short while ago. He was not such a simple person as he appeared.

Just as Meng Xiuwen sat down, Su Muge stood up and stepped back to keep a certain distance from him.

“The scenery here in the Meng Mansion is beautiful, I came here by accident. I didn’t mean to disturb Master Meng, I’ll leave.” Su Muge turned around and was about to go away.

“It’s said that the eldest Miss Su could treat a person even without feeling the pulse?”

Su Muge stopped gently, and realized that he was talking about the things happened between Meng Shushu and her back in the Glory Hall.

“It’s surely necessary that only by feeling the pulse carefully can I know the exact physical condition of the second Miss Meng.”

Meng Xiuwen walked behind her. A sense of disgust showed in his eyes as he saw her birthmark, but he quickly adjusted his mood.

He approached Su Muge slowly, and they were just half a foot away.

Su Muge had been suffering from malnutrition, which made her look very skinny There was slight bluish yellow in her skin. Despite her delicate facial feature, she had nothing to do with the word “beautiful” with such a skin color.

There was a scent of rouge powder on Meng Xiuwen. Su Muge was about to back away when a shape voice rose behind her.

“Su Muge, why are you with my brother, what do you want to do?”

Meng Shushu came with some maids aggressively, protecting Meng Xiuwen behind her like a hen protecting its chicken baby.

Meng Xiuwen raised his eyebrows and glanced at Su Muge. It seemed that he did not intend to say anything.

“I am also wondering why Young Master Meng appeared here.”

Meng Shushu stared at Su Muge and said “Su Muge, what do you mean by that! Here is Meng mansion, does my brother have to tell you where he is?!”

Su Muge looked at the brother and sister indifferently.

“So, I really don’t know the answer of your question, Second Miss.”

Meng Shushu was startled, and so did Meng Xiuwen. The question was why Su Muge was here with Meng Xiuwen. Since Meng Xiuwen was the master of the Meng mansion, he could show up anywhere he wanted. Su Muge didn’t know he was here. It was just a coincidence that the two of them met here.

“You, you’re so ugly with a sharp tongue!” Knowing she was not an opponent of Su Muge, Meng Shushu tended to take the strategy of personal abuse.

Meng Xiuwen slightly frowned, glancing at Su Muge who was as calm as ever, and scolded with low voice. “Shushu, stop your nonsense, apologize to Miss Su immediately!”

Although Meng Shushu was a bit afraid of her brother who smiled all day long but had never been indulgent with her, only she straightened her neck stubbornly.

“I didn’t say anything wrong. Isn’t she an ugly monster? If I had grown up like that, I would have been too shame to face others.”

“Shushu, shut up!”

Su Muge glanced at the brother and sister. “I have learned all about the upbringing in the Meng mansion from you two.”

Before they could speak again, she left along the way she had come.

She would find another way, and it would better to keep away from the Meng mansion.

When Su Muge walked back to the Glory Hall, Su Lun sent somebody to her and told her they were going to leave. Su Muge bowed Old Lady Meng a farewell and left.

As soon as Su Muge left, a maid went to the Glory Hall and told Old Lady Meng about what had happened in the garden.

Old Lady Meng, with her eyes half-closed, waved for the maid to leave.

An Mama, who had been serving Old Lady Meng, walked into the house with a bowl of sweet lotus seed soup.

“Old Lady, you’re tired. Have some soup.”

Old Lady Meng raised her eyes and looked at her, with a faint breath coming out.

“What do you think she is up to?”

An Mama went up to her and gave a massage to her shoulders. “Old Lady, aren’t you very fond Eldest Miss Su?”

“She is very capable and has her own plans. But she isn’t suitable for our Meng mansion. So from now on, it’s better off having nothing to do with her.”

Su Muge’s father was born in a poor family, and he had such a high position only because he had abandoned his original wife and married another who came from a higher class. Moreover, the status of her biological mother was way too low. If she were married to the son of a concubine of the Meng family, it would be her great honor.

“But Old Madam, how about your health…”

Old Lady Meng waved her hand. “Shushu was right on one thing. I have gone to see so many imperial doctors, and I know it’s a matter of another a year or two despites of their vague words. How can a girl under fifteen be such skillful? Last time in the Su mansion, I have already paid her off.”

An Mama tightened her lips. It was not that easy to repay someone for saving the life. But she dared not say it out.

“How about the illness of the second Miss…”

“The wife of the eldest Master will take care of it. Shunyang prefecture isn’t small. There should be some female doctors who are proficient in this.”

“Yes.” An Mama didn’t answer any more, and massaged the old lady occasionally.

…

Out of the Meng mansion, Su Lun said he needed go to Yamen, the government office, to handle some things. He asked the servants to send Su Muge home, and then left.

It was almost noon, and the streets were getting more and more crowded.

With the dress and jewelries sent today, there were also silver worth fifty liang. It was supposed to be part of his private savings.

Since she was out here, there was no reason for Su Muge to go back empty-handed.

“Stop at the pharmacy ahead.” Su Muge opened the curtain slightly and said to the driver.

“Eldest Miss, the Lord asked you to go back home directly…”

“Stop at the pharmacy ahead, and don’t make me say it the third time!” Su Muge said with a firm tone. Even if the driver didn’t want to, he still stopped the carriage.

Su Muge lifted the curtain and jumped down the carriage. “Wait for me here.”

Su Muge walked into the pharmacy. A familiar voice made her stunned, she turned around quickly and hide in the shadow behind the door.

After a moment, a figure in a Taoist robe came out from the pharmacy.

“Senior Taoist Priest, we really don’t have the herbs you want. Please ask somewhere else.”

The Taoist priest complained with a cold snort, and seemed extremely dissatisfied. “How can you open a pharmacy with nothing useful!” He swung his sleeves and left.

Su Muge didn’t came out from the back of the door until she was sure the figure had walked away.

This Taoist priest truly was the one who had gave her antidote for months, but why did he show up here, was he going to catch her?

The shopkeeper was unhappy about being scolded, and was shocked when he turned around and saw a person suddenly appeared.

“Ghost!”

Su Muge felt speechless but said calmly, “Do you have fire glossy Ganoderma?”

The shopkeeper now slowly came to his sense, but kept his head down from Su Muge’s face. The birthmark was way too scary!

“Fire glossy Ganoderma, yes, yes, we have it.”

In the state of Chu, fire glossy Ganoderma with ordinary quality was common, and was really not that precious.

Su Muge took a look at the fire glossy Ganoderma on the counter, and it was indeed the worst.

“What was that Taoist priest looking for, and why are you so angry?”

Speaking of this, the shopkeeper snorted.

“He wanted to buy the ginseng with over five hundred years of age, and the fire glossy Ganoderma with an age over a thousand! I don’t have any here, and nor does the whole Shunyang prefecture.

Su Muge didn’t ask more, but bought a lot of other herbs and some tools to make pills.

“Take these to that carriage.”

The pharmacy apprentice took the stuff and said, “Yes, I will carry it to that carriage right away.”

Su Muge walked out of the pharmacy, and was going to a bookstore. After all, she knew too little about this world.

“Bang!” When passing by an alley, a black figure fell at her feet from the sky.

Su Muge stepped backward with alert. She frowned and looked at the person who was lying on the ground and huddled himself up.

The man was badly wounded. There was a smell of blood. She didn’t want to get into any unnecessary trouble, so she turned away. But the man suddenly reached out and grabbed her ankle.

Su Muge paused with a tremble, and looked back at him.

The man raised his head with difficulty, with blood coming down all over his face. It was unable to tell his original appearance…

“Help, help me.”

Su Muge moved her feet and tried to get rid of the man, but he was determined, and grasped her ankle tightly and won’t let it go.

The harder Su Muge struggled, the tighter he grasped.

Finally, Su Muge stopped.

“Under such a weak condition, you still grasped me tightly for one minute, which showed your strong sense of survival. Fine, I’ll save you.”

The man seemed to hear what Su Muge said, and gradually eased his hand.

Some noise of footsteps came into Su Muge’s ears, and she managed to carry the man into an empty house.

Soon, a group of men in coarse cloth came to the place they had been.

“There are bloodstains on the ground. He can’t be too far! Come on!”

Hiding behind the door, Su Muge vaguely heard the words coming from the outside. after the noise of footsteps of those people gradually vanished, she squatted down to see the man on the ground.

The man had a number of stab wounds, but none of them was fatal. The only serious wound was caused by arrow in the abdomen.

The arrow had been pulled out, but the barbs must have hurt the organ and the wound was still bleeding.

She now had no medicine, no tools, and not even the most basic thing for hemostasis. The man had lost a lot of blood. If leaving him untreated, he would probably die.

Su Muge looked down at her palm, she hadn’t used the her super power since had been poisoned.

“You asked me to save you, and you’ll have to bear the consequences no matter what it is.”

Su Muge stretched out her hand, and moved her palm to the man’s wounded abdomen gradually. Soon, she felt her palm getting warm, and it felt like a heated sucker was added onto the palm. While healing the wound, Su Muge felt something scurrying in her body, and she groaned in pain.

It was not until the heat on the palm faded gradually that her discomfort began to wear off.

Su Muge removed her palm from the wound, sat on the ground, and wiped her forehead which was already sweaty.

The man’s wound seemed not changed expect that bleeding had stopped. But Su Muge knew, the force just now would have certainly cured the man’s damaged organs.

After a breath, Su Muge struggled to stand up, and put a pill into the man’s month.

“Dead or alive, it’s now up to yourself.”

The moment she left, the eyelids of the man on the ground moved, and then he slowly opened his eyes…
