Chapter 390: Dare Not Draw the Sword (Thanks to Yanyu Luoye for the monthly ticket and updates)

Xie Pan’Er grew increasingly anxious, hurriedly questioning Xiaosuisui.

Xiaosuisui listened to her questions, but her mind processed them slowly, and for a moment, she wasn’t sure which one to answer.

"Miss Pan’Er, please don’t panic. Your elder brother is fine. I’m handling this case. Xie Si has already explained what happened. I can’t tell you the specifics just yet; I still need to question Princess Ata."

Upon hearing Ji Youzhi’s words, Xie Pan’Er’s expression became even more urgent.

"Princess Ata’s situation is very critical; none of the Imperial Physicians here dare to extract the scissors. Just now, Imperial Physician Yang told me that the Divine Physician of Medicine King Residence is in the Capital City. Does the Seventh Prince know who this Divine Physician is? Could we request him to come and treat Princess Ata?"

Hearing Xie Pan’Er’s words, Ji Youzhi furrowed his brow. "You don’t know who the Divine Physician of Medicine King Residence is?"

Xie Pan’Er was slightly taken aback. "What do you mean, Seventh Prince?"

Ji Youzhi didn’t respond. Instead, Xiaosuisui piped up, "It’s Second Uncle! His Majesty, my adoptive father, has already sent someone to invite Second Uncle!"

Only then did Xie Pan’Er understand. "So, it’s the Second Prince! That’s truly wonderful!"

If it’s the Second Prince, and His Majesty has already sent someone to invite him, then Princess Ata’s injuries probably won’t be too serious.

Just as she was thinking this, she heard Ji Youzhi muse doubtfully.

"Strange, why hasn’t Second Brother arrived yet?"

His words reached Xie Pan’Er’s ears, and her heart, which had just settled slightly, clenched with worry again.

The Ji Mansion isn’t very far from the post station. Logically, since His Majesty sent someone to the Ji Mansion, the Second Prince should have arrived quickly. But he still hadn’t come.

What can be done? Princess Ata probably can’t wait much longer.

Worried that Ji Youran still hadn’t arrived and anxious about Princess Ata’s condition, Xie Pan’Er couldn’t help but look towards Princess Ata. She was startled to find Princess Ata staring fixedly at her.

No! To be precise, she was looking at Xiaosuisui in my arms!

Xie Pan’Er looked at Xiaosuisui, then back at Princess Ata, perplexed.

After confirming repeatedly that Princess Ata was indeed looking at Xiaosuisui in her arms, Xie Pan’Er gently placed Xiaosuisui on the ground and said,

"Princess, this is Princess Ata from Nanjiang."

Xiaosuisui had already seen Princess Ata on the bed when she first entered the room.

She nodded. "I know. Brother Xie Si is the one who stabbed her with the scissors in her chest."

Hearing this, Xie Pan’Er felt her head buzz. Although she had already learned about this from Third Madam, hearing it directly from Xiaosuisui was still profoundly shocking.

"Princess! Did my brother personally tell you this?" Xie Pan’Er anxiously asked Xiaosuisui.

Xiaosuisui nodded, then she tilted her head and looked at the scissors protruding from Princess Ata’s chest.

"Can these scissors really not be removed?"

The Imperial Physicians chattered, arguing back and forth, but none of them paid any mind to this little doll-like princess, personally ennobled by His Majesty!

However, one person did. Imperial Physician Yang interrupted his discussion with a colleague to specifically answer her question.

"Princess! The scissors in Princess Ata are lodged near her heart. None of us can be sure if they’ve actually pierced the heart, so we don’t dare to remove them!"

Xiaosuisui blinked upon hearing this. She tilted her head to the left, then to the right, and asked, "What would happen if it did pierce her heart?"
