Quick Wear: Cannon Fodder's Self-Redemption (2)[MTL]

Chapter 25 A Few Things About the Little Emperor

Three days ago, Da Wa got help from Qiming and hired a doctor for his sick brother. The next day, when he went to the clinic to get medicine, the old doctor saw that he was handsome, smart and sensible. In addition, the clinic was short of staff, so he wanted to keep him as an apprentice, with lunch and a hundred yuan a month. Da Wa gratefully accepted the job and bought two sets of coarse cloth clothes with the money left by Qiming. Today was the first day of work. Da Wa cleaned himself up and came to the clinic early.

　　After lunch, the old doctor asked him to deliver medicine. The patient's clinic was not far away, and it only took ten minutes to walk there. However, half an hour had passed, and he still hadn't come. The old doctor was worried, so he asked the shop assistant to go look for him. After a while, the shop assistant came back in a hurry, saying that Da Wa had been captured by the young master of the Wang family, and his legs were injured. He was being carried to the Shangshu Mansion.

Everyone in Kyoto knew what kind of person Wang Wencai was. He bullied men and women, and would capture any good-looking person he saw. Once he captured someone, he would abuse them as much as he could. Although Wang Wencai was a scoundrel, he was not stupid. He captured people only for his own pleasure, and would not kill them. When he had enough fun, he would throw them out and give them a sum of money as compensation. Most poor people did not dare to fight against officials, and would accept the money as compensation. Therefore, even though everyone knew that Wang Wencai was a piece of shit, no one went to sue him.

　　The old doctor was so anxious that he didn't know what to do. Suddenly he remembered what Qiming had said that day, so he told his servant to close the clinic and hurried to the Regent's Palace.

　　After listening to the old doctor's narration, Qiming's face darkened. He looked at the Crown Prince Li Heng and said in a deep voice, "I believe Your Highness has understood. Although I have only met that child once, now that I know about it, there is no reason for me to stand idly by. I am going to the Shangshu Mansion to ask for the person. If Your Highness feels embarrassed, please turn back now."

　　Li Heng was keenly aware of Qiming's mood changes. He straightened his face and said, "Brother Gong, why do you say that? Not to mention that this matter is related to Brother Gong, even if it is not, Wang Wencai is behaving so recklessly, and this prince should also take care of it. He cannot let him ruin the reputation of the palace."

　　Qiming turned his gaze to Shen Xiao, who said quickly, "Brother Gong, why are you looking at me? I will never leave. I have long disliked that fat guy, and that kid and I have some connections, so how can I just sit there and do nothing?"

　　Qiming bowed slightly and said calmly, "In that case, I would like to thank you two on behalf of Da Wa."

　　The Regent's Palace was not far from the Shangshu's Mansion, just three streets away. Accompanied by Li Heng, the group left the palace smoothly, got on the carriage and quickly headed towards the Shangshu's Mansion.

　　About a quarter of an hour later, the carriage stopped, and Qiming heard Xiao Qianzi say, "Your Highness, we have arrived at the Shangshu Mansion."

　　Qiming, who was sitting on the outside, got off the carriage swiftly, looked up at the gate of the Shangshu Mansion, and said to the old doctor who got off the other carriage: "Old man, please go back to the clinic first. It is inconvenient for you to come out for this matter."

　　The old doctor bowed deeply to Qiming and said, "You are so kind, I thank you."

　　The old doctor didn't say much, and turned away. This Shangshu Mansion was indeed not something that a commoner like him could afford to offend, and the old doctor had done his utmost to invite Qiming here.
