Chapter 441: 223 Couple (two episodes combined into one)_2
“If I try my best, can I be as excellent as the crown princess?” another lady asked.
The crown princess smiled softly, “Everyone has their own excellence, your effort will make you more excellent.”
My goodness, what kind of crown princess is this? She’s not haughty at all. Where did the rumors about her monopolizing the Suo Bridge and prohibiting the public from passing come from? That’s totally insane!
It was clearly her family who did that, she was just unfairly implicated!
The results of this lecture were obvious. If everyone was only slightly trusting of the crown princess before, now the trust had increased significantly.
“Additionally.” The crown princess looked at the door and said softly, “The classroom is full. It seems some people could not get in. Actually, the Queen of Rui is also giving a class here today. Her zither skills are better than mine. If any of you ladies want to learn the zither, you might want to attend Queen Rui’s class.”
No, no, no, we only want to attend your class!
The Queen of Rui and the crown princess have been at odds for a while now, and the Queen of Rui often belittles the crown princess. The crown princess never disputes with her, but now she even goes as far as directing students to her class—
How considerate!
Who wouldn’t like, respect, and support such a crown princess?
In the second class, indeed, a few ladies went to the Queen of Rui’s class.
Believing that her zither had attracted them, the Queen of Rui enthusiastically conducted her class. Only to find out after she finished—
“The crown princess sent us here.”
The Queen of Rui’s face suddenly turned dark.
The Queen of Rui, feeling aggrieved, hugged her zither case tightly and went to Gu Jiao for comfort.
Perhaps because she was too caught up in expressing her dismay, she even left her zither in Gu Jiao’s courtyard when she departed.
In the afternoon, the Duke of An came to the Medical Hall.
He was there to have his eyes rechecked.
Gu Jiao led him to the consultation room, as was customary, and examined him. Throughout, she remained calm and composed, as if the awkwardness of their previous encounter had not occurred.
Gu Jiao had let it go long ago, she would not dwell on such things.
The Duke of An gave a bitter smile. It seemed he was the only one who couldn’t forget.
“How does it feel?” Gu Jiao asked.
“Much better,” the Duke of An replied with a smile.
It wasn’t a polite remark. He had truly gotten much better. He didn’t feel much improvement in the first three nights, but starting the fourth night, he began to notice a faint perception of light.
Only God knows how long he had suffered from this disease. Any weakness of his might bring about fatal disaster, so over the years, he had been walking on thin ice.
Gu Jiao nodded: “Continuing with the medication is necessary. You should also adjust your diet, eat more organ meats.”
The Duke of An wasn’t fond of those, but since she advised, he would comply: “Okay.”
Gu Jiao looked at him: “Have you caught a cold?”
There was something off about the tone of his voice.
The Duke of An smiled, “Now that I can see light at night, I got excited and sat outside in the courtyard for a while.”
Not in the courtyard, but on the rooftop.
The joy of nearly regaining sight was something people could hardly understand.
“Your hand.” Gu Jiao pointed at the pillow on the table.
The Duke of An obediently put his hand on it.
Gu Jiao took his pulse, withdrew her hand and said, “It’s not serious, no need for medication.”

“Is there really such a doctor who doesn’t prescribe medicine? Don’t you need to make money?” The Duke of An teased her.
Gu Jiao gave him a glance: “Consultation fee, ten taels.”
The Duke of An: “…”
The Duke of An laughed: “Alright.”
Forget ten taels, he would be willing to give even a hundred taels.
Meanwhile, after finishing her class, Zhuang Yuexi left the academy and saw her brother’s carriage parked in front of the Medical Hall right away.
She frowned slightly. Was her brother here to pick her up or—
Why did he park the carriage over there?
Without waiting for Zhuang Mengdie, Zhuang Yuexi went to the Medical Hall by herself. It was busy at the moment, and there were no spare hands to attend to her. She headed straight in when she heard her brother’s voice.
She arrived in front of the consulting room, pushed open the slightly ajar door, and as she saw through the crack, she happened to catch the Duke of An smiling after being charged a consultation fee of ten taels.
It was a smile Zhuang Yuexi had never seen on the Duke of An’s face before.
The Duke of An was not an icy handsome man, but he had never smiled with such sincerity either.
The way he looked at the other person, his eyes were full of light.
But the person he gazed at was totally unaware, or didn’t care, and continued to organize their belongings.
Zhuang Yuexi’s fingers suddenly tightened.
Xiao Liulang has been finishing class late recently, so today it was Gu Jiao who picked up Xiao Jingkong.
No one was more ecstatic than Xiao Jingkong, who was the first one to bolt out of the classroom, rushing like a small whirlwind towards the gate.
“Jiaojiao!”
And he was once again drenched in sweat.
