Chapter 1086: Chapter 247: Borrowed the Courage of a Dog_2

"Relatives, you speak of legitimate relatives, don’t you!? You don’t even count as illegitimate relatives, so what kinship are you claiming!?" Pei Wendong scolded furiously.

Xie Yi, who wished to hear the news from inside the gates, was moved to tears by his angry voice. He disowned her! He no longer acknowledged her! He had promised to marry her, but now, he probably couldn’t wait for her to vanish from his side!

Mo Heng waved his hand to stop Pei Wendong from saying more and commanded his personal soldiers, "Go to Mingyi Doctor Hall and summon a doctor!"

Seeing him summon a doctor, Second Madam Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and wept, "Quickly, bring her down! Take her inside! If you delay any longer, my daughter will truly be killed by you!"

"Do you think you have nothing to lose, or do you think you can bully the General Mansion!?" Mo Heng scoffed coldly.

"My daughter was beaten by you, and she’s nearly dying now! You’re just letting her lie out here, so you’re not responsible!?" Second Madam Zheng cried out.

"What about after the doctor has seen her? What after she’s cured?" Pei Qin asked with a smile.

Second Madam Zheng’s eyes flickered, "She hasn’t been treated yet, but my daughter was only in your estate for a day before being beaten to the brink of death! My poor daughter!"

"Do you think if she hadn’t snuck into the training grounds to spy, she would have been mistaken for a spy!?" Mo Heng declared mercilessly.

Second Madam Zheng’s face fell. They weren’t insisting that Mo Heng agree to marry Yue Huan then and there; having him take responsibility and let Yue Huan stay in the General Mansion for treatment and recovery was enough. Unexpectedly, a gentleman like him didn’t give any face and publicly maligned Yue Huan’s reputation.

"Don’t be evasive! I warned her beforehand that the army was preparing for war against the Rong Clan, and many visiting Military Generals were outsiders. She was forbidden from going to the garden, let alone the training grounds!" Pei Yuan interjected, cutting off Second Madam Zheng’s retort.

The spectators whispered among themselves; General Mo was indeed extraordinarily handsome, and the General Mansion was indeed wealthy and noble. But to be beaten for spying in someone’s training grounds and then still have the shamelessness to turn up demanding justice was utterly disgraceful!

Moreover, that General Mo could throw someone out after they had been injured without showing any compassion or tenderness meant he clearly did not fancy the daughter of the Zheng family. They came here to make a scene, only to lose their own dignity!

"The doctor has arrived! The doctor has arrived!"

The appointed doctors of Mingyi Doctor Hall were all well-known in Capital Jingcheng, and this time, three were summoned at once.

"May I trouble the three doctors to look at the injured party and see how she is," Pei Qin requested politely.

The three doctors bowed and came over to examine Zheng Yuehan.

But Second Madam Zheng stopped the doctors, not letting them proceed, "You’re bullying us! To have several male doctors freely examine my daughter right on the street!"

"Send someone! Set up a tent for them. Take my card and go to the palace to call for a female physician!" Pei Qin ordered coldly.

Huang Qiu responded and promptly took people to attend to it.

The three doctors, realizing the overt commotion, stated directly, "Mingyi Doctor Hall is nearby, and they have female physicians."

Someone immediately went to Mingyi Doctor Hall to summon a female physician.

Trained soldiers swiftly erected a small tent, and a female physician from Mingyi Doctor Hall was quickly brought over.

"You have the choice to treat her or not," Pei Qin proclaimed, having everything prepared to see how shameless they could be.

The onlookers began to speak, "The famous doctor has been found, the tent has been pitched, the female physician has arrived; if they don’t treat her now, doesn’t it mean they’re the ones with an issue?"

"Are they just trying to force their way into someone else’s home?"

"If they don’t treat her soon, she might really die!"

If Second Madam Zheng continued to prevent the treatment, just the spit from the mouths of the onlookers would be enough to drown someone.

Old Lady Zheng gave her a glare; if they could’ve handled things more amicably and settled the matter quietly, that would have been preferable.

Seeing the female physician approaching, Second Madam Zheng had no choice but to step aside.

Two maidservants came up to assist, carrying Zheng Yuehan into the tent for the physician to provide medical treatment.

The wound was cleaned and medicated anew.

Everyone waited outside, quietly anticipating as quarter of an hour passed, "What’s the situation? Is it a serious injury that can’t be healed?"

The woman physician, in her thirties, looked at the wound and curled her lips, then suddenly gave a few pricks with a silver needle.

"Ah! It hurts so much!" Zheng Yuehan screamed in pain and sat up.

"Yue Huan!?" Second Madam Zheng was taken aback, rushing over in haste.

The female physician had already handed the silver needle to her disciple to put away, "All done! It was just a shoulder injury; the wound isn’t deep, and it isn’t a leg injury either!" she said, walking straight out.

At this, Old Lady Zheng and Second Old Master Zheng faced the mocking onlookers, unable to lift their heads in embarrassment. Hadn’t she been unconscious? And running a fever...
