The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 92
Episode 92. The Deceiver’s Fishing Method (2)
Shocked.
Princess Adeline paused. He looked at the object held out in front of him. Pink candy. It smelled sweet. It was his favorite plum flavor.
Her eyes turned to Rachiel.
“….”
Is this a coincidence? Or maybe this person has figured out my tastes.
‘It’s probably the latter.’
To gain their favor. To break down vigilance. It must be a trick. The princess furrowed her eyebrows.
“What is this?”
“It’s candy. “Plum flavor.”
“So what does this mean?”
“Sweet candy after taking bitter medicine. “Because that’s the national rule.”
“….”
“Are you not going to eat it?”
“….”
Adeline was troubled.
It was an atmosphere where I had no choice but to take medicine. I ate it in the end. But I wrote too much. It was fishy, bitter, and sour. If you lick an elephant’s armpit, would it taste like this? I felt nauseous one after another. I wanted to vomit what was inside me right away.
But there was candy presented in front of me. It was even his favorite flavor.
Instinct cried out.
Just take it.
Eat right now.
Don’t even melt it, just chew it and eat it.
On the contrary, Lee Seong shook his head.
‘it’s crazy? ‘You’ll get that?’
My pride was hurt for that.
Somehow, I felt like I was playing in the palm of the prince’s hand, which made me feel extremely dirty. I wanted to slap that delicate palm holding out the candy right away.
‘I am…’
The instinct to escape from the unimaginable taste terror. Nevertheless, the opposite sex cries out to take care of one’s pride. A fierce tug of war ensued between the two.
Adeline’s eyes wavered.
Cold sweat broke out.
Rachiel’s words dealt the final blow to her agony.
“We also have green grape flavor here.”
…Hot!
I couldn’t bear it anymore.
Adeline’s hand moved at the speed of light. I grabbed the two candies that Rakiel held out. I poured it into my mouth in one go.
Wow!
“Haa….”
The heavenly sweetness spreads throughout your mouth!
My appetite, which had been stuck in the hardcore gutter, was saved. I felt a sense of pleasure as if the Earth Mother was shining on the path ahead. The sugar gods’ blessings on plums and green grapes. A smile of relief, with one toe in paradise, naturally flowed from between my lips.
Then Adeline realized. The fact that Rachiel was staring at him blankly.
“…Ugh! hmm! hmm!”
She hastily adjusted her expression. But I couldn’t hide my red face. Was that why? A sound that wasn’t even in my mind came out randomly.
“Hmm! Ma Magentano’s candy is a mess. I had very low expectations because it was a flavor I usually like, but I didn’t expect it to be this low-quality. “I am truly disappointed.”
“Is that so?”
“yes. That’s all. “After eating such a messy dessert, I feel like I made a good decision to refuse the meal you suggested.”
“But I understand you haven’t had lunch yet.”
“it’s okay. “When I see low-quality food, my appetite also tends to drop.”
“is that so?”
“yes.”
“Really?”
“yes. surely.”
Adeline nodded, trying to control her expression. I looked straight at Rachiel with a confident smile.
It was then.
…Gurgling?
A grand(?) shout suddenly broke out in silence. Her oblivious stomach sent a signal asking for food.
“….”
Adeline froze. Then I realized. Crown Prince Rachiel looking at himself. His eyes are smiling slightly.
‘…Keutsk.’
Anywhere is fine, I want to hide. No, I want to punch that person in the face just once.
She had to enjoy the feeling of being confused to the core of her soul. But he barely made it obvious. I woke up with a slightly redder face.
“I enjoyed the medicine and dessert you recommended. “Then I’ll leave.”
“Are you leaving already?”
“yes. “Is there any reason for me to be here any longer?”
“Of course not. The chamberlain will guide you to your accommodations. Please rest comfortably.”
“thank you? “Prince of Magentano.”
Adeline turned around as if shaking off the sweat. I walked out of the luncheon hall with great strides. On the other hand, I made a promise to myself.
The next six months will be spent in this villa. During that time, let’s avoid encountering the prince as much as possible. If we meet again, I might cause an accident that tramples on that person.
‘Whoo!’
The tendons in her fists bulged as she let out a rough breath. Of course she had no idea. That the resolution I have now will be broken in just one day.
♣
A day has passed.
A separate annex attached to a villa. In that luxurious room, Princess Adeline greeted an unfamiliar morning.
“….”
This place is a hostile place. It is the center teeming with enemies. He was thrown into such a place and must survive here for the next six months.
match! Wow!
As soon as she opened her eyes in bed, she roughly slapped her cheeks with her palms. Armed my mind. I promised myself not to be deceived by the luxurious appearance of the accommodation. And then, just like in my home country, I started a well-planned morning.
I went down to the training room attached to the annex. The escort knights were inspected. I sweated through morning training. Then I suddenly realized something strange.
‘what? ‘Why is my body so light?’
Unexpectedly, I was in good condition. My body felt so light, as if I was just going to fly. It was truly strange.
‘This couldn’t possibly be happening the morning after a long distance trip, right?’
I expected to be quite tired. So, I tried to lower the intensity of my training than usual. But the condition was very good.
‘no way. ‘Thanks to the medicine I took yesterday?’
A decoction that tasted like elephant armpits suddenly came to mind. The Crown Prince’s words, ‘It’s a good herbal medicine for recovering from fatigue,’ came to mind.
“….”
no. That can’t be possible. It makes no sense for fatigue to go away just by drinking a decoction once.
She shook her head with difficulty. I focused on training. I forgot the decoction and erased the crown prince.
However, as I faced breakfast after training, I had to recall the terrible memories of the previous day again. This was because the decoction was served with dessert after the meal!
“…Put it away.”
Just smelling it made me nauseous. She was shocked and frowned. I left the annex as if running away.
I went for a low-intensity walk to recover my muscles after training. The garden happened to be vast. It was good for walking. I controlled my mind.
But it was in the meantime. A strange group caught my eye. People in fairly shabby clothes were gathered in groups of twos and threes and were crossing the garden.
‘what?’
She felt strange.
This was a villa where the crown prince of the empire stayed. But there are people dressed like that walking around the garden of such a villa.
‘Are you a gardener? It’s not. There’s an old woman and a young child. But it doesn’t seem like he’s a chore worker either.’
She observed people in shabby clothes. Then I suddenly realized that people have one thing in common.
The old woman was limping. The little boy was crying on his mother’s back, wondering where he was in pain. The middle-aged man who followed him also did not have a good complexion.
In other words, everyone is sick somewhere. The sick were walking through the garden. Everyone was walking in the same direction. It was in the direction of the main villa of the villa.
“….”
What on earth is this? Why do the sick go to the main villa of the villa? I was very curious. Adeline followed them, keeping her distance. Thanks to you, I was able to witness it.
“…her?”
It was a very strange sight.
people.
A lot of people who don’t match their star sign at all. Dozens of patients lined up to enter the main building. Adeline also mingled with them.
curious.
As if possessed.
I passed a line of patients.
There was a room at the end of the procession.
‘What does this place do that patients come in one after another?’
She slipped into the room.
And I witnessed it.
“…Well, it’s because I have a fever. First, quit drinking for a while. “You should reduce fatty foods and avoid activities that cause excessive fatigue as much as possible.”
“Is that so, Your Highness?”
Crown Prince Rachiel was sitting across from the old man. He was explaining step by step to the old man with an extremely serious and kind expression.
“Of course. So, today, I will control my energy and blood with moxibustion. Do not skip the prescribed herbal medicine and take it regularly at the same time. “You understand, right?”
“I will keep this in mind, Your Majesty.”
“Then let’s go get some moxibustion first. Now this way… huh?”
“…!”
I made eye contact with Rachiel.
Could it be that that person is playing with us again like yesterday? That was the moment when she was about to frown.
“What are you doing here now?”
Like hitting a player.
Rachiel asked with a stern gaze. Thanks to this, Adeline was embarrassed.
“yes?”
“Yes it is. This is the treatment room. Did you fill out the medical treatment receipt? “Are you in line properly?”
“What is that…”
My confusion grew even more.
She is a princess. Could it be that they did that because they ignored the line of shabby patients whose names they did not know? Rakiel’s point seemed to shatter her thoughts.
“Do you think I’m joking? This is a place where patients are cared for. It is such an equal place. Except for His Majesty the Emperor, status, gender, and age do not matter. Do you understand?”
“Then…”
“If you want to come in here, fill out the medical treatment registration form first. Stand in line in order. Do you understand?”
“….”
gulp.
Adeline’s neck fluttered.
It was my first time experiencing something like this. It was somehow humiliating. On the one hand, I felt embarrassed. A royal family who abuses their power and position. I felt like such an inconsiderate type of person.
She came out of the treatment room as if she had been kicked out. But I didn’t go anywhere else.
‘If I leave like this, I feel like I’m losing.’
I didn’t like that.
I especially didn’t want to go through the humiliation of leaving a strange impression on the crown prince or that person. I wanted to make up for my mistake(?) neatly.
He said he wasn’t that kind of person.
I wanted to prove it. It seemed like that would make the discomfort go away. She went to the end of the line of patients. The medical treatment receipt was officially written by hand.
We lined up among the patients. I endured boredom and anxiety at the same time. How long did I wait like that? Only after a whopping two hours had she been able to officially enter the treatment room.
As soon as she entered, she spoke harshly.
“Well, I followed the procedure and came in. As you can see, I am this kind of person. “This is not the kind of royal family that abuses their power and position.”
“…Did you want to prove that?”
“yes. “The previous experience was humiliating enough.”
“Is that so? Anyway, welcome back. “I definitely wanted to meet the princess seriously at least once in the doctor’s office.”
“…yes?”
Adeline frowned.
What does that mean?
It was a moment of doubt.
“Why did I invite you to the imperial capital and make you stay for six months? “Aren’t you curious about the real reason?”
Rachiel asked with an expression that didn’t even contain a smile.
