After the divorce, I was adorned in a phoenix robe, while my ex-husband's entire family dug up
Chapter 53 Don't be too self-righteous
"However, I suspect that even if you go to the Prime Minister's residence now, the Prime Minister might not let you in for treatment."
If Madam Tang's condition is delayed, the Marquis's mansion will be in deep trouble.
"Why don't I, the one who caused this, take you all to the Prime Minister's residence first, and then punish you?"
A sharp glint flashed in the old lady's eyes.
The others exchanged glances. As long as they pleased the Prime Minister, the Marquis's family would surely rise to prominence in the future. This was an opportunity they couldn't miss.
However, the Prime Minister already harbors resentment towards the Marquis's residence, and if he goes there rashly, he will likely have to deal with some complicated matters.
Since Wei Zhaoning has said so, and this matter was started by Wei Zhaoning, why not let her take the lead and shield the Prime Minister from his anger?
It would be a good idea to wait until the Prime Minister had finished scolding before letting Wei Jiaruo in to provide treatment.
"You'd better not try anything funny." The old lady narrowed her eyes, her gaze full of warning.
Wei Zhaoning lowered her head. "My mother also said that it was the Prime Minister who blamed me. How could I dare to play tricks in front of the Prime Minister?"
The old lady snorted coldly, and Lu Zhufeng immediately ordered, "Someone! Prepare the carriage!"
Wei Jiaruo looked at Wei Zhaoning with a slightly cold gaze.
She always felt that Wei Zhaoning was up to something again.
However, she sent someone to inquire and learned that Madam Tang was now in dire straits.
Don't be so arrogant.
She held her head high and slowly walked past Wei Zhaoning.
The people from the Marquis's residence set off quickly. Wei Zhaoning was taken there bound and gagged, as everyone wanted to show the Prime Minister the Marquis's residence their sincerity in admitting their mistake.
Prime Minister's House.
The gatekeeper glanced at the carriages parked at the gate and stepped forward, saying, "Please leave. The Prime Minister is not receiving guests today."
Lu Zhufeng respectfully replied, "Please inform him that Marquis Yongxin requests an audience to make amends for his mistake."
After saying that, he gave a wink, and the servant forced Wei Zhaoning to kneel in front of the door and took the handkerchief out of her mouth.
Upon seeing this, the gatekeeper's expression changed slightly. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but said nothing.
"This is?"
Lu Zhufeng said apologetically, "My wife made a mistake and delayed Madam Tang's treatment. I have come to admit my mistake and apologize."
He glared fiercely at Wei Zhaoning.
Wei Zhaoning said, "Please inform them that my sister is a divine physician with the ability to bring people back to life. She has come today not only to apologize but also to make amends."
The gatekeeper was taken aback. "Yes, sir, I'll go and inform them right away."
Before an incense stick had even burned, the Prime Minister came to greet him personally.
Chancellor Zhang Zheng was over fifty years old.
His hair was tied up with a jade crown, and his temples were already frosted white, but he combed it meticulously.
Although there were fine lines on his face, he showed no signs of aging. His gait was unhurried, and he exuded an aura of authority without being angry.
He arrived with a smile, but upon seeing the scene before him, his expression changed drastically almost instantly.
"I heard you want to make amends? You don't need to bring your whole family along." Prime Minister Zhang frowned.
Upon hearing this, everyone in the carriage got off, their tone ingratiating.
"Excuse me, Your Excellency. The Marquis's residence has made a mistake. If we do not all come together to apologize, I fear Your Excellency will not feel that our sincerity is insufficient."
In fact, they all came here today just to show their faces in front of Prime Minister Zhang. If something good happens in the future, Prime Minister Zhang will remember Wei Jiaruo's life-saving grace to Madam Tang today and give them some benefits.
Such a big tree, only a fool wouldn't lean against it!
Zhang Xiang's face fell completely as soon as the old lady got out of the car, and he looked utterly displeased.
Lu Zhufeng was a little embarrassed and quickly pulled Wei Jiaruo aside, introducing her: "Prime Minister, this is my other wife. She has superb medical skills. Ten years ago, she was the one who pulled that man back from the brink of death in that shocking murder case."
He chuckled twice more, "It's just that Wei Zhaoning was jealous and stole her credit. This time, for her own benefit, she delayed Madam Tang's treatment."
Wei Jiaru lowered her head, as if embarrassed, and stepped forward.
"Your Excellency, rest assured, I have found a way to save Madam Tang."
Zhang Xiang sneered, "Is that so?"
To everyone's surprise, instead of scolding Wei Zhaoning, he walked up to her and said, "Ningning, get up first."
"The culprit hasn't even knelt, so why should you? Since the other lady of the Marquis is so confident, then let's try it first."
Wei Zhaoning: "Thank you, Uncle Zhang."
The old lady understood Zhang Xiang's words; it was obvious that he was coming for her!
Her face turned deathly pale as she followed the others inside, quietly tugging at Wei Jiaruo's sleeve.
"You must live up to your expectations; your mother is counting on you."
Wei Jiaruo smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mother. In this world, there is no one else but me who can save Madam Tang."
Her gaze pierced Wei Zhaoning, who was walking at the front.
I never expected that the Prime Minister would still be favoring her. Having a powerful background makes all the difference.
However, no matter how deep the friendship, it is worthless in the face of personal interests.
She wanted to see how long Wei Zhaoning's background could hold up.
The curtains around the bed were half-drawn, and the light shone through the gauze curtains onto Madam Tang, but it did not bring any warmth. Instead, it made his pale and weak face look even more sickly.
Wei Jiaruo walked over confidently and began to take the pulse.
"My sister is truly a divine physician. Ordinary doctors take the pulse by feeling the pulse, but my sister has actually grasped the pulse itself."
Wei Zhaoning said calmly.
Wei Jiaruo's eyes darted around. "What do you mean by this, sister? I have my own way of doing things. What, Madam Tang is bedridden now, and if you can't help her, fine, but you want to freeload here?"
Sister, you must think about the bigger picture. I only want to save people today; I don't want to argue with you.
"Shut up!" Lu Zhufeng snapped at Wei Zhaoning.
Zhang Xiang's gaze fell on Wei Jiaruo, his eyes deep and unfathomable.
Lu Ze and his group started using their connections in various ways.
"Your Excellency, please have a seat. My sister-in-law is very capable; Madam Tang will definitely be alright."
Lu Jieyue and Lu Jieshuang quickly moved chairs and poured tea.
Zhang Xiang looked completely bewildered, as if he were a guest.
A maidservant nearby scoffed softly, "We don't need any maidservants here, save your breath."
Lu Jieshuang overheard this and said fiercely, "What did you say? How dare you, a servant, speak to me like that!"
The maid lowered her head and shrank back.
Lu Jieshuang's shout drew everyone's attention to her.
Lu Zhufeng frowned and gave her a warning look, then chuckled and said, "Please don't be offended, Your Excellency. My little sister has been pampered and spoiled in the manor since childhood, and she has become a bit unruly."
Lu Jieshuang chuckled twice in agreement, suppressed her temper, and sat up obediently.
Zhang Xiang lost his patience, staring at the other person silently, too lazy even to frown.
At this moment, Wei Jiaruo's expression turned grave as she said to Prime Minister Zhang, "Madam Tang's condition is critical. If this continues, I'm afraid she... will never wake up again."
"If my sister had told me sooner, the situation wouldn't have gotten this dangerous. Sister, you're so kind! Oh!"
"but......"
