I insist

Chapter 528: Seeing a Doctor

The news of the change of emperor quickly spread throughout the land, but after the people discussed it, they stopped paying attention. As long as they could make a living, they didn't care who was emperor.

Meanwhile, Song Miqiu's business was booming, and Duan Jiayan was performing exceptionally well. One day, he was so distracted while working that he almost dropped a plate.

"Duan Jiayan, what are you doing? Don't you want to quit? When you're working, concentrate a little, or you'll hurt yourself and others."

Song Miqiu discovered this, frowned slightly, and spoke directly.

Duan Jiayan came to his senses and apologized repeatedly: "It's my fault, it's my fault, I'm sorry, Madam, I will definitely be careful and attentive."

Seeing that his thoughts weren't on that at all, Song Miqiu sighed, "Alright, come with me, rest for a while."

I don't feel comfortable with you working like this.

Duan Jiayan had no choice but to follow Song Miqiu into a nearby room.

"Sit down. You've been distracted all day. What's wrong? Did something happen?" Song Miqiu asked.

Duan Jiayan lowered his head slightly: "The city lord has someone outside."

"Just this matter?" Song Miqiu had no interest in these things at all.

"This matter, everything was fine before, why did things turn out like this after my incident? Madam, is this my fault?"

Duan Jiayan was at a loss. Everything had been fine before, so why had everything changed?

Song Miqiu said calmly, "This matter has nothing to do with you. Don't overthink it. And I advise you not to get involved."

Let your brother-in-law and sister handle it themselves, so you don't get involved and things get even more complicated.

Duan Jiayan looked at Song Miqiu and suddenly remembered that Qiu Tianlei had told him that she had been an imperial physician. He immediately felt hopeful and knelt down on the ground.

"I beg you, please save my sister, please."

“Why should I save her? I told you not to get involved in this, how could an outsider like me get involved?” Song Miqiu said, looking at Duan Jiayan kneeling on the ground.

Duan Jiayan quickly said, "Madam, I'm begging you to examine my sister's health. I've heard from your son that you used to be an imperial physician; you must be very skilled."

"Please, you must show this to my sister. After that, you can have anything you want, even my life."

Song Miqiu felt a headache coming on. She hadn't expected Qiu Tianlei to reveal her identity like that. She sighed and said, "Get up first. You misheard. I'm not a royal physician at all."

Duan Jiayan couldn't believe it: "Impossible, you must be the imperial physician, please don't deny it, please take a look at her."

"I'm really not a royal physician, you're overthinking it."

Song Miqiu didn't want to be entangled with Duan Jiayan, so after saying that, she left the room.

Duan Jiayan did not give up because of her rejection. Instead, he followed her around, pleading for her from time to time and saying some things.

Therefore, the scene in the restaurant was that Duan Jiayan was always following Song Miqiu. If they weren't so far apart in age, most people would assume that the two of them were having an affair.

Song Miqiu was originally a quiet person, but she was so pestered that she could only let out a sigh and look at him: "What do you want from me to let me go?"

"Madam, I only beg you to go and see my sister. You are an imperial physician, you must have a way, right?" Duan Jiayan said very earnestly.

Tortured to the point of desperation, Song Miqiu could only admit, "Yes, I am indeed a royal physician. What's wrong with your sister's health? Why do you insist that I examine her?"

Duan Jiayan stood up and replied, "Actually, my sister was pregnant five years ago, but unfortunately she miscarried due to some complications. The doctor said it damaged her body, and she hasn't been able to get pregnant again for many years."

"Madam, you are a royal physician, you must have a way, right? Please, you must help her."

Song Miqiu did not immediately agree. Instead, she said calmly, "My skills are the same as those of an ordinary doctor. Since the doctor has said so..."

I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do, I really can't help you with this.

Duan Jiayan didn't believe Song Miqiu's words at all. He said very seriously, "You can definitely help her, Madam, I beg you, if you... because of what happened before..."

"I've already said it, what happened before is over. You don't need to keep reminding me. The reason I don't go to see her isn't because of this."

My medical skills are no different from those of an ordinary doctor, so there's nothing I can do about these things.

Song Miqiu frowned slightly and looked at Duan Jiayan, speaking softly.

“I don’t believe what you’re saying. You’re a woman, so you must be very capable to become an imperial physician. Why don’t you take a look at my sister?” Duan Jiayan said.

Song Miqiu didn't want Duan Jiayan to keep following her, so she finally agreed: "Okay, then I'll go with you to take a look."

Upon hearing this, Duan Jiayan was very pleased: "Thank you, Madam, thank you, Madam."

Fearing that Song Miqiu might change her mind, Duan Jiayan took Song Miqiu to the city lord's mansion that very day. At this time, the city lord's wife looked haggard, and it was clear that she had not had a good time recently.

When she saw Duan Jiayan arrive with Song Miqiu, she thought something had happened to him and hurriedly asked, "Madam, has he gotten into trouble again?"

Please don't take it to heart. If there's anything you need to say, you can talk to me, and I can teach him a lesson.

Seeing the city lord's wife as if facing a formidable enemy, I knew that my identity had frightened her, making her think that I could kill people at any time.

Song Miqiu shook her head: "It's alright, you don't need to worry. He's doing quite well there. We came here because he begged me to come and check on your health."

"Let me check your body? What does that mean?" The city lord's wife asked, somewhat puzzled.

Duan Jiayan said with a smile, "Sister, you don't know, this old lady is an imperial physician. Haven't you been worried about your health?"

Are you worried about not being able to have children? That's perfect, let the old lady take a look at you; maybe she has a solution.

The city lord's wife finally breathed a sigh of relief. She knew her brother meant well, but she still said calmly, "The doctor already said..."

It's practically impossible for her to conceive now, so there's no need to trouble the old lady.

"Sister, you can't give up! We have to try whatever we can. Besides, the old lady has come all this way; we can't let her come for nothing."

Besides, I think the old lady must be very capable; maybe she really can cure your illness. Why don't you give it a try?

Are you really planning to hand my brother-in-law over to someone else? I don't believe you're unaware of what's happened lately.

Duan Jiayan held his sister's hand and asked very seriously.

The city lord's wife looked up at Duan Jiayan, then at Song Miqiu beside her, and remained hesitant.

“Now that I’m here, I naturally have to show you around, and put your brother’s mind at ease, right?” Song Miqiu said.
