The Herbal Scents of Farm Life
Chapter 318 - 318 318 Give What Face

Chapter 318: Chapter 318: Give What Face Chapter 318: Chapter 318: Give What Face With a loud ‘smack’, he slapped the guard on the head.

“Reward? You dare to appreciate that flower? Hurry up and check what trick that girl is up to,” he instructed.

The Diamond Flower is rare, he was worried that Lin Caisang, in her rush, would not be careful and end up destroying the flower he had painstakingly nurtured.

After all, to a physician, the Diamond Flower, despite its medicinal properties, is considered extremely toxic. She might feel the need to burn them all after knowing they are Diamond Flowers.

“If anything happens to my Diamond Flowers, you’ll have to answer to me!”

“Yes, I’ll go immediately.”

The guard was bewildered from the slap, but obediently went to check the courtyard.

He quietly mumbled to himself, wasn’t it the Second Prince who invited that girl physician to stay in this courtyard? Why is he now worried?

Moreover, this is the Princess’ Mansion, no one would dare to start a fire here, unless they have a death wish.

In the courtyard, upon hearing the footsteps approaching, Lin Caisang withdrew her hand. There was already a small handful of Diamond Flower seeds in her pouch. Growing medicinal plants in her pouch was much faster than outside, with a survival rate of one hundred percent, she didn’t need many.

Moreover, she had heard the voices outside the courtyard wall.

She looked up at the guard.

“Did you come to take me to see the Elder Princess?” she asked.

She knew that wasn’t the case, but she asked anyway.

“Err…”

As expected, the guard’s face twisted in embarrassment, his eyes scanned around before he reluctantly uttered a response.

“Miss Physician, the butler sent me to check if you’re comfortable here and if there’s anything you need. As for the Elder Princess, it’s not up to a mere guard like me to arrange a meeting… it’s uncertain whether she has time to see you,” he said.

“Oh, I see.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Caisang nodded, her face revealed nothing.

“If the Elder Princess doesn’t have time, then so be it. After all, my time isn’t plentiful either. Since neither of our schedules line up, perhaps… I should leave… Consider it as if I’ve mistaken this imperial edict and I’ll return it,”

“What?”

The guard heard her words, his eyes widened as if he couldn’t believe his ears.

Wasn’t this girl here to treat the Elder Princess? How did she want to leave after he’d only just said a word?

“Miss Physician, this is the imperial edict you’ve answered, it’s not a game.”

Could anyone just answer the imperial edict and then return it if they wished? Where would the dignity of the Liang Kingdom and the emperor’s face be placed then? This girl must be joking.

“Weren’t you here to treat the Elder Princess, Miss Physician…”

“I am here to cure and save people, but that requires the patient being present.”

Lin Caisang sneered, flicking her sleeve disdainfully, showing no respect.

What did she care about the Princess’ Mansion, or the emperor? If it weren’t for the abundance of points that she could use to upgrade her pouch, why would she bother to come here?

“My time is precious. Today, I can only stay in Jian’an City for half an hour, and I must leave soon. If I can’t see the Elder Princess, and can’t diagnose her illness, why should I waste my time here?

Besides… since someone wants to play games with me, why can’t I play along?”

She cast a seemingly absent-minded glance towards the source of the noise outside the courtyard, a slight smile playing on her lips.
