Great, it's just a lackey, we're saved!

Chapter 45 The Imposter from the Valley of Divine Healers!

Zhou Wei's teasing tone stirred up Wan Qianliang's nerves, becoming the last straw that broke the camel's back.

After enduring for so long, Wan Qianliang turned around and looked at Zhou Wei, his forehead veins bulging, looking quite terrifying.

"You lowly servant, what nonsense are you spouting?"

Zhou Wei dusted off her dress and stood up, looking relaxed.

"Am I talking nonsense? Isn't the prince's condition a result of your two acupuncture treatments? He's just not skilled enough, so who can he blame?"

As Zhou Wei spoke, she glanced at Qi Jingming and shook her head regretfully.

"Given the young master's current condition, even if his leg ailment is cured, he will likely suffer from a chronic condition."

“Take this crooked mouth and droopy eyes for example, it’s not something that can be cured in three or five years.”

“The young master, so dashing and debonair, even before he could walk, still possessed a handsome appearance, but now…”

Zhou Wei sighed and shook her head, then looked at Shen Shuqing with pity.

“It won’t just be the young master who suffers in the future; I’m afraid the Shen family’s daughter will also have to work hard! Taking care of a patient like the young master requires the most patience.”

Shen Shuqing's expression froze at Zhou Wei's words, her mind racing with countless thoughts that left her completely disoriented.

How could she, a direct descendant of the renowned Divine Physician Valley, marry a man with a crooked mouth and crooked eyes?

Shen Shuya hid behind Qiu Fangyun, avoiding everyone's gaze, and gently patted her chest.

His face was filled with the relief of surviving a disaster!

Thankfully, thankfully it wasn't her who was going to marry the current Qi Jingming.

Otherwise, I might as well be dead!

Humiliated by Zhou Wei, Wan Qianliang was enraged and no longer cared about her composure.

He angrily retorted, "What makes you think I'm not skilled enough? I am the eldest disciple of the Divine Doctor Valley, and my medical skills are directly inherited. What right do you have to judge me?"

Zhou Wei chuckled lightly, her tone full of disdain: "The direct descendant of the Divine Doctor Valley, is this all you've got?"

"Young Master Wan, I advise you not to use the name of Divine Doctor Valley to swindle and deceive people when you travel the world in the future, lest you actually encounter someone from Divine Doctor Valley, which could lead to someone's death."

Zhou Wei's words had a hidden meaning, and everyone present couldn't help but look at her.

Wan Qianliang was the first to react, his face filled with disbelief.

"What nonsense are you spouting, you lowly wench? What do you mean I'm using the name of the Divine Healer Valley to swindle and deceive people?"

Zhou Wei remained calm and instead inquired about Lady Qiu Fangyun, the wife of the Marquis of Zhenyuan.

"Does Madam still remember that in Kunning Palace, in front of Her Majesty the Empress, I said that Wan Qianliang's medical skills are not as good as mine?"

"Because Divine Healer Valley is Divine Healer Valley, and Wanqianliang is Wanqianliang! Now, does Madam understand what I mean?"

Qiu Fangyun's face turned deathly pale instantly, and her hands trembled slightly.

"Aunt...Aunt means that this Young Master Wan is not a prodigy from the Valley of Divine Healers?"

Prince Jiang Yueshan was also somewhat shocked!

His gaze toward Wan Qianliang was inquisitive, yet still skeptical.

After all, it's not an easy thing to impersonate someone from a blessed land.

Temperament and manner of doing things are secondary; the most important thing is real ability!

Who among those who emerge from blessed lands and grottoes doesn't possess extraordinary skills?

Although Wan Qianliang did not cure Qi Jingming, his skill in applying acupuncture was undeniable.

Zhou Wei didn't keep them in suspense; instead, she directly revealed Wan Qianliang's identity.

"This person is certainly not from the Valley of Divine Healers. Have you ever met anyone from the Valley of Divine Healers with such poor medical skills?"

"The young master only had a leg ailment, but after being pricked by Wan Qianliang's needles, he's almost become a cripple. Does this kind of medical skill even deserve to try and extort money from the Divine Doctor Valley?"

Zhou Wei spoke with absolute certainty, and Qiu Fangyun couldn't help but turn her head to look at Shen Shuya behind her.

She always thought that Wan Qianliang was invited by Shen Shuya.

Now, only Shen Shuya knows what really happened!

"Shuya! Do you think this Young Master Wan is really from the Valley of Divine Healers?"

Shen Shuya was terrified; Qi Jingming was in such a state that he was just one breath away from death.

If she gets involved with Wan Qianliang at this moment, she will surely die!

As her mind raced, Shen Shuya saw Shen Shuqing, who was still in a daze.

An idea immediately came to mind.

“Mother! Young Master Wan wasn’t invited by me, but by my elder sister. Didn’t I tell you that from the beginning? Besides, my elder sister admitted it.”

"My elder sister even... even took the initiative to claim credit in front of the young master, saying that Young Master Wan only came to the Marquis's mansion because of her."

"This matter can be testified to once the prince wakes up; I would never dare to lie."

Qiu Fangyun was stunned upon hearing this, her emotions in turmoil.

Shen Shuya did say before that Wan Qianliang came to the Zhenyuan Marquis's mansion because of Shen Shuqing.

Can……

Shen Shuya acted as if she had been wronged, as if Shen Shuqing had stolen the credit.

Now they're trying so hard to shift the blame, which has left Qiu Fangyun somewhat confused.

However, this is not the time to argue about this. Since even Prince Qi Jingming knows that Wan Qianliang was invited by Shen Shuqing...

A resolute look appeared on Qiu Fangyun's face.

The Zhenyuan Marquis's mansion must not be implicated. If all else fails, we will have to abandon Shen Shuqing.

This daughter had no feelings for him to begin with, and now she's caused a huge disaster.

If the Duke's mansion really wants to blame someone, then they should push Shen Shuqing out to take the blame!

After figuring it out, Qiu Fangyun's gaze towards Shen Shuqing was devoid of any warmth.

"Shuqing! Kneel down!"

Shen Shuqing suddenly woke up, her face filled with shock.

"Mother... what did you say?"

"I told you to kneel down! Didn't you keep saying that this divine physician, Gu Tianjiao, was someone you invited?"

"Now that Aunt Zhou Wei says that Young Master Wan is not from the Valley of Divine Physicians, don't you give His Highness the Crown Prince, the Empress, and the Duke's Mansion an explanation?"

Shen Shuqing's chest heaved rapidly, her almond-shaped eyes wide open as she glared at Zhou Wei, her heart churning with anger.

She had never seen anyone as audacious and shameless as Zhou Wei!

How dare they distort the truth and slander Wan Qianliang in front of so many people?

She grew up in the Valley of Divine Physicians with Wan Qianliang since childhood. How could Shen Shuqing not know whether Wan Qianliang was a descendant of the Valley of Divine Physicians?

A mix of emotions welled up inside him, compounded by pressure from his own mother, Qiu Fangyun.

Shen Shuqing retorted sharply, "Mother! Your daughter has done nothing wrong, why should I kneel?"

"Young Master Wan is indeed from the Valley of Divine Physicians. Don't listen to this vile woman Zhou Wei's lies..."

boom!

Before Shen Shuqing could finish speaking, she received a solid slap across the face from Qiu Fangyun.

"You still dare to be stubborn? If this person really comes from the Valley of Divine Healers, why are his medical skills so poor?"

"Didn't you see what's going on with the Crown Prince? He's your future husband! How could you hire an imposter to harm him just to jeopardize your reputation?"

"What are your intentions? How could I have given birth to such a heartless and treacherous person as you?"

Shen Shuqing covered her face, her whole body trembling.

"Mother! Young Master Wan really comes from the Valley of Divine Healers, why don't you believe me?"

Zhou Wei crossed her arms and watched as the mother and daughter got a little carried away with their argument.

He interrupted, saying, "Madam, let's postpone the judgment of the case!"

"If you keep arguing, the Duke's mansion will really have to prepare a coffin for the heir."
