Chapter 359 The Prince's Mystery: The Cannon Fodder Bride Forced into a Substitute Marquis's Marquisate VS The Frail and Early-Dying Eldest Son of the Marquis's Family (34)
After explaining the precautions, Su Jinyue handed the prescription to Feng Yiming.
She paused for a moment, then said, "If you're going to have surgery, I need to prepare the surgical supplies. If things go smoothly on your end, it can be done the day after tomorrow."
To show my sincerity, I drew a diagram of a wheelchair so that you can move freely even when your legs haven't fully recovered.
You must have a craftsman in your family who can make it for you.
Su Jinyue had prepared scalpels and high-proof liquor in her space, and she also prepared an operating room. Once Feng Yiming delivered the medicinal materials, everything would be ready.
Feng Yiming took the prescription and drawings from Su Jinyue and didn't know what to say.
This time, it seems he really has hope of recovery.
Feng Yiming was excited for a while before he slowly regained his composure as a young nobleman and expressed his gratitude to Shen Huaizhi and Su Jinyue.
“Brother Huaizhi, sister-in-law, then I’ll have to trouble you with this leg.”
I've been bothering you these past few days with your treatment.
I will arrange the medicine and the doctor as soon as possible, and I will definitely be able to perform the surgery the day after tomorrow.
Feng Yiming had made up his mind. Even though Feng Enchi thought Su Jinyue's treatment plan was too shocking, he didn't say anything since his brother had decided to give it a try.
Moreover, seeing that Shen Huaizhi had improved, Feng Enchi inexplicably began to trust Su Jinyue a little.
Since Feng Yiming has difficulty walking, we don't want him to go back and forth like that.
Anyway, the surgery is the day after tomorrow, so it's not a big deal to move to the village a day or two in advance.
Su Jinyue instructed her servants to prepare a room for Feng Yiming in the side room of the front yard, and had Feng Yiming's attendants go and arrange the room.
Since Feng Yiming couldn't go back, Feng Enchi had to return to the mansion alone to prepare the medicine and the doctor.
Moreover, such a major matter as treating Feng Yiming must be discussed with the household. To avoid worrying Mother and Grandmother, we can keep it from them for now, but Father still needs to inform them.
The thought of telling his father made Feng Enchi a little apprehensive, but the thought that if his brother got better, his father would no longer insist on him studying gave him courage.
With the belief that he could play freely in the future, Feng Enchi boarded the carriage and returned home with a death-defying spirit.
However, less than half a day later, Feng Enchi returned, bringing his father, Feng Shizi, with him.
Feng Enchi followed Feng Shizi dejectedly to the front yard of the estate.
Knowing that Prince Feng had arrived, Su Jinyue and Shen Huaizhi both knew the purpose of his visit, so they went together to the front yard to see him.
Prince Feng is a few years younger than Lord Shen. He doesn't seem as imposing as Lord Shen, but he is, after all, a confidant of Emperor Xinghe and a shrewd and capable prince.
Upon meeting, Shen Huaizhi and Su Jinyue, as the younger generation, first paid their respects to Prince Feng.
Prince Feng was angry from the morning when he learned that Feng Enchi had skipped school. Later, when he learned that Feng Enchi had also abducted his eldest son, he became worried about his eldest son.
When Feng Enchi was caught and brought back to the mansion, he learned the whole story. He was somewhat excited, but more than that, he couldn't believe it.
Is such an absurd treatment plan, which even involves the cruel act of cutting open the leg, feasible?
Prince Feng, disregarding the punishment for Feng Enchi's recklessness, summoned the imperial physician and explained the treatment plan and prescription to him, wanting to know if the plan was feasible.
However, the physician had never seen a treatment for a broken leg like this before and could not give a definite answer. He could only say that the prescription was indeed beneficial for wound healing and bone healing.
Feng Shizi knew that his youngest son had contact with the eldest son of the concubine in the Xuanping Marquis's household, but since the eldest son was just a sickly and weak concubine, Feng Shizi knew that this person posed no threat to his youngest son, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
The youngest son said that Shen Huaizhi's wife cured his poor health, and now the couple lives on the estate.
Prince Feng has already sent people to inquire about the matter at the Xuanping Marquis's residence. Although Marquis Shen tried his best to cover it up, well-informed people still managed to find out some information.
Expelling a son of a concubine, especially one who was also a son of an illegitimate wife, from the Marquis's mansion was somewhat abrupt, but such things were not uncommon in powerful and aristocratic families and were not surprising.
But now, the youngest son says that Shen Huaizhi, the illegitimate son, is cured!
However, the Marquis of Xuanping's residence knew nothing about it!
Was it Lady Xuanping who disliked her eldest son and drove him out of the manor, or did Shen Huaizhi use a scheme to escape from the manor?
Logically speaking, people would not want to leave the protection of a powerful family like the Marquis's mansion, but what if they have to leave for their lives?
Feng Shizi had a strange feeling that Shen Huaizhi was doing it on purpose. Otherwise, how could his illness have been cured so soon after he left the Marquis's residence?
Now that he has arrived at the estate and met Shen Huaizhi, Prince Feng is even more certain of this.
Shen Huaizhi now has sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and an outstanding temperament. You can't tell that he is sickly at all!
Prince Feng felt that Lord Shen had made a mistake by separating his illegitimate son, Shen Huaizhi.
Shen Huaizhi's demeanor—neither humble nor arrogant, showing no fear whatsoever—was hardly the behavior of a sickly illegitimate son who rarely saw outsiders.
Shen Huaizhi was definitely biding his time before!
But looking at Shen Huaizhi, Prince Feng felt that he looked familiar. But when he thought about it carefully, he realized that he had never met Shen Huaizhi before, so where did the familiarity come from?
After thinking for a long time, Prince Feng still couldn't figure it out, so he decided to just leave it for now.
Prince Feng's eyes flickered, a glint of shrewdness flashing within them. Then, he laughed heartily and said to Shen Huaizhi, "Your father and I served in the same court and were close friends. You and my family's Enchi are also friends. Why don't we address each other as uncle and nephew?"
Nephew, what do you think?
Without hesitation, Shen Huaizhi bowed to Prince Feng with the courtesy due to a junior and said, "Huaizhi greets Uncle Feng."
Afterwards, Shen Huaizhi introduced Su Jinyue to Prince Feng: "Uncle, this is my wife. I have been sickly since childhood, but fortunately I married a virtuous wife. Thanks to her care, I have recovered my health."
Enchi and I are good friends. Knowing that he often worries about his brother's illness, I couldn't bear to see him so sad. That's why I tentatively wrote to him, hoping that my wife could first diagnose Yiming's illness.
I didn't expect that I would send a letter only yesterday, and today Enchi has already brought Brother Yiming over. Now I've even troubled Uncle. It was Huaizhi's oversight."
Looking at Shen Huaizhi's wife, Su, who was also calm and composed, Feng Shizi couldn't help but feel surprised.
Hearing Shen Huaizhi's impeccable words, Prince Feng sighed, "This couple is no ordinary person!"
Feng Shizi stroked his beard and laughed heartily, "Nephew, there's no need for such formalities. I'm also very worried about my son's illness. Now that I've heard that your wife has a way to cure my son's leg, I can't wait to do so."
Now all I want to ask is, are you sure you can cure my son's leg?
