Chapter 132 General's Concubine 6
When Yue Zhen came to the old lady, she did not immediately offer to send Liu Yaozhu to the farm. Instead, she asked with concern, "How is Yaozhu? I heard that she had a head injury and was bleeding. Is everything okay?"
"Although the doctor said there's nothing serious, Yaozhu hasn't woken up yet. I'm wondering whether I should ask the imperial physician to come and see Yaozhu." Hearing Yue Zhen's words, it's not difficult to see his concern for Liu Yaozhu.
"If we invite the imperial physician, the incident of Liu Yaozhu hitting her head against the wall can't be concealed. After all, the imperial physician is not someone an ordinary doctor can control. If the imperial physician says something in front of His Majesty, do you want to wait for His Majesty to ask about the incident of Liu Yaozhu hitting her head against the wall? If that's the case, how are you going to reply to His Majesty? Are you going to tell him that Liu Yaozhu wanted to poison me?" The old lady naturally would not let her grandson invite the imperial physician.
After all, inviting an imperial physician requires the emperor's permission, which is equivalent to exchanging his grandson's military merits for the emperor's favor. Otherwise, do you think that any minister in the court can get the emperor's favor to invite an imperial physician?
Could the old lady let her grandson's military merits be used to hire an imperial physician for that vicious woman Liu Yaozhu? Was Liu Yaozhu worthy of it?
After hearing what his grandmother said, Yue Zhen gave up the idea of inviting an imperial physician. After all, what his grandmother said made sense. An imperial physician was not someone that an ordinary doctor could control. If the emperor knew that his wife had hit her head against the wall to commit suicide, how would he explain it to the emperor? Would the emperor think too much?
Old Madam: "Don't worry! Since the doctor said Yaozhu is fine, then she must be fine. Doctor Liu's medical skills are trustworthy."
Doctor Liu has always been the doctor appointed by the General's Mansion, so his medical skills are naturally impeccable.
"Oh, by the way, there is something that Grandmother wants to discuss with you," the old lady continued, "Grandmother plans to send Yaozhu to live on the farm for a while, as a way to teach her a lesson. After all, Yaozhu almost poisoned me, and I can't just not punish her at all."
"If we let this matter go, Yaozhu will not learn her lesson. She will be even more reckless in harming others in the future. Grandma doesn't care. I've lived to this age anyway. Living a few more years or less won't make any difference."
"But grandma is worried about you!" The old lady wiped her tears, "Grandma is really scared, afraid that Yaozhu also hates you. Was Yaozhu hitting her head against the wall last night just a self-torture trick? If Liu Yaozhu is really so cruel that she didn't even let you go, then she hit her head against the wall last night to make a bigger move and put her intention of harming you!"
"No," Yue Zhen rejected immediately, "Yaozhu loves me deeply. No matter how much she hates me, she doesn't really want me to die."
The old lady knew it was like this. It seemed that Liu Yaozhu's self-torture trick last night had accurately grasped her grandson's heart: "Alas! Who can say for sure? Before yesterday, we didn't think about it, let alone believe that Yaozhu had the intention to kill me, her grandmother, right?"
"Zhen'er! Grandma knows that you love Yaozhu deeply in your heart. Even though Yaozhu is maliciously trying to poison me, your grandmother, you still can't bear to punish her. But you should also think about grandma! Grandma can be said to have walked through the gates of hell last night, so how can grandma not worry about your safety?"
"If anything happens to you, how can grandma live? So grandma must punish Yaozhu. What's more, she is only sent to live in the manor for a while. What are you reluctant to give up?"
Yue Zhen opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say. After all, his grandmother was just worried about him.
"Just agree to it, Grandmother!" The old lady took her grandson's hand and said with tears in her eyes, "Just think of it as Grandmother begging you, okay? Even if you want Grandmother to have a good night's sleep and not let Grandmother worry about your safety, you shouldn't have to protect Liu Yaozhu."
"Or is it that Liu Yaozhu is really that important in your heart? Even if Liu Yaozhu killed me, you can still forgive her and continue to love her without any reservations."
"How is this possible?" Yue Zhen said immediately, "Grandma, is your grandson such an unfilial person in your heart?"
"But how is your behavior different from being unfilial?" The old lady let go of her grandson's hand in disappointment. "Liu Yaozhu wanted to harm me last night. I didn't ask you to punish her severely, nor did I ask you to divorce her. Now I just want to punish her by sending her to live on the farm for a while, but you refused."
"So you tell me, isn't your behavior unfilial?"
"Grandma," Yue Zhen's face was filled with guilt, "It's my fault. I will listen to you. Let Yaozhu live in the manor for a while. When she truly realizes her mistakes, you can bring her back."
"Okay, okay," the old lady wiped her tears and said with relief, "I knew my grandson is a filial child. Grandmother will have someone prepare something right away. When Yaozhu wakes up, she will be sent to the farm immediately."
Yue Zhen wanted to refute immediately. After all, Yaozhu was still injured. Even if he wanted to send her to the manor, he had to wait until her injury healed.
But when he thought of what his grandmother had just said about him being unfilial, Yue Zhen could only swallow the words he was about to say.
He should not hurt his grandmother's feelings anymore. After all, the punishment her grandmother gave Yaozhu was already very light. She just asked Yaozhu to live on the farm for a while. Seriously speaking, this was not a punishment at all.
Yue Zhen could only pray now that Yaozhu’s injury was not serious.
After receiving the old lady's order, Nanny Sun immediately asked people to prepare, and then brought people to Liu Yaozhu's yard.
On the one hand, I wanted to see if she was awake, and on the other hand, I wanted to help her prepare things.
When Nanny Sun brought people over, Liu Yaozhu was eating. It was not that she didn't want to continue pretending to be unconscious, but she would definitely not be able to hide the fact that she woke up from Yue Zhen unless she could pretend to be unconscious forever.
After what happened last night, all the servants in Liu Yaozhu's yard, except for Biyun, the maid who came with her as a dowry, were replaced by Yue Zhen.
After all, Yue Zhen was still on guard against Liu Yaozhu. Although Liu Yaozhu's self-torture trick last night was indeed effective, Yue Zhen still couldn't feel at ease with her, or let down his guard against her.
For fear that she would still harm her grandmother, he simply replaced all the servants in Liu Yaozhu's yard, which was a way to indirectly monitor Liu Yaozhu's every move.
"Madam, you're awake, that's great," Nanny Sun said to Liu Yaozhu with a fake smile, "Originally I was thinking, if Madam is still unconscious, it would be hard to help her pack her things."
