The Second Life of Hu Liena

11. The Hong Physician Residence.

In a car....

Hu Liena noticed the rows of pine trees lined up along the road she was on, she was now on a horse carriage with Luqiu to head towards the residence of Physician Hong who was on the outskirts of the city.

Hu Liena felt mesmerized by the natural beauty around her. In the modern world, he was very rare to be able to enjoy this kind of scenery, his duties as a military doctor made him only able to spend time in the camp where he worked to conduct research on the ingredients of drugs that he would use.

Recalling Luqiu's remark about the First Prince's figure, Hu Liena began her chatter. "Luqiu, what about the First Prince's likeness?"

Luqiu who was asked became excited when asked about the famous Prince in his country. "He was the most influential Prince in the Ying Dynasty, Miss. In addition to his handsome face, he was also famous for his coldness and ruthless nature." Luqiu Light to her master.

"If it's true that he's a ruthless figure, how can I like him?" Hu Liena continued, increasingly curious.

"It was precisely for that reason that Miss and all the women in the Ying Dynasty liked her, even to the point of willingly sacrificing their pride. But alas, the First Prince flatly refused every woman who came to him." Luqiu clenched her hands together, she looked enthusiastically talking about the matter.

Hu Liena seemed to get a breath of fresh air when she heard the word rejection, she then spoke with a smile on her face. "That means, the First Prince also rejected an arranged marriage from me right."

Seeing his master displaying a happy countenance, Luqiu sneered at him. "What do you mean Miss? I told them and it doesn't happen with you."

"You!" Hu Liena lost her words, how could the Prince who rejected all the women in her Country still accept the arranged marriage proposed by her.

Luqiu continued her words. "The First Prince can't resist, because Empress Shu really likes Miss. As a devoted child, of course he had to carry out the orders of his mother. Therefore the Prince receives an arranged marriage from you even though he himself does not want it.

Hu Liena increasingly felt helpless hearing every word spoken from her loyal servant. He had no choice but to accept his destiny now. His life and death depended heavily on his decision, if he still refused he would die a second time.

Hu Liena shuddered if she had to remember about her own death, until now her goal had not been accomplished to avenge her heartache. If he were to die, it would only make his great enemy feel like he had the upper hand for the umpteenth time.

He took a deep breath before finally opening his mouth. "Hahhh .. Never mind, this is already predestined. In the future we do not need to discuss this anymore, if it must happen then it happens." Pause.

Luqiu was pleased and could breathe a sigh of relief after having produced convincing her master, these past few days, she had always felt anxious due to Hu Liena's change in attitude.

Not long after the horse-drawn carriage they were riding stopped in a courtyard of the house, the yard looks clean and neat, and the owner is very diligent in taking care of his residence and adding comfort to everyone who visits it.

Hu Liena got out of the horse carriage, assisted by Luqiu who had descended first before. After descending the carriage, Hu Liena stepped foot to enter the courtyard of Physician Hong's mansion.

Arriving at the doorstep, Hu Liena was not too rushed, she simply kept silent to pay attention to the place around her. Just when he decided to knock on the door came the sound of a middle-aged man reprimanding him.

"What is the Prime Minister's daughter doing in this old old shack?" Physician Hong's voice sounded from the direction beside Hu Liena.

Once he found out that the owner of the voice was the one in his car, Hu Liena immediately turned her head and answered him. "Looks, my arrival really surprised you, Doctor."

Hearing the words from Hu Liena, Physician Hong only sighed resignedly. "Ahhh ..it's just a feeling Miss, I don't dare to be narrow-minded like that. Your arrival is a blessing to me."

"Well, well, I apologize if Miss doesn't like it." Physician Hong then resumed his words. "If I may know, what is the meaning of your arrival in this hut, what does this have to do with the request of the servant at that time?"

Hu Liena's lips twitched slightly at the question from Physician Hong, she didn't expect that this old man would still remember their conversation last time.

He still remembers it, even though I tried to forget it. Inner Hu Liena.

"Miss, Miss!" Physician Hong called out to Hu Liena who was silent without answering any questions from her.

"Ehh .. that." Hu Liena instantly lost her words.

"That's what Miss?" Physician Hong.

After taking a breath, Hu Liena mentioned the reason for his arrival. "I came to ask for your help, I want to plant some herbs in the garden behind my residence."

"Hamba understands." Said Physician Hong, then resumed. "Miss means coming here is to ask me to find some kind of medicinal plant to plant in your garden, is that right?"

"true." Hu Liena nodded in agreement.

"It just so happens that I have some kind of herbs in my backyard, you can see them first." Physician Hong said as he pointed towards the back of his house.

"It's good, so I don't have to worry anymore. Hurry up, get me there." Hu Liena was delighted to hear that.

"Okay Miss, please!" Physician Hong said, he then pulled over allowing Hu Liena to walk in front of him.

Hu Liena did not feel any hesitation, she directly walked ahead of Physician Hong. When talking about medicinal plants, he would always feel excited.

The expanse of medicinal herbs was now plastered before him, making Hu Liena unceasingly clench to admire him. "I didn't expect that the medicinal fields you've got would be this big, Physician."

"You're too complimentary Miss, this is just an ordinary herbal plant. In any drugstore, you'll definitely find it." Physician Hong replied casually.

Hu Liena's lips twitched slightly upon hearing the remark from the old man beside her, although it was true that this plant was an ordinary medicinal plant. But if it can achieve this much, it is not unusual. Even if all these plants were sold, Physician Hong would become rich within a few hours.

While still watching the medicinal fields before him. Inadvertently, the corner of Hu Liena's eyes caught some very familiar medicinal herbs in her eyes. "Is it cordyceps?" Said Hu Liena while pointing in the direction she saw.

"It looks so." Reply Physician Hong nodded his head.

"Can I take a closer look?" Ask Hu Liena.

"Please Miss." He replied, without Hu Liena noticing there was a cold glint in Physician Hong's black eyes. But it was only a few seconds, and instantly disappeared as soon as he glanced towards Hu Liena.
