Compared to the days when she had to work day and night, Murong Hanzhi was extremely free now. Other than talking to the Fifth Prince every day and making him happy, she didn't have to do anything else. Moreover, she had good food, good drinks, and good clothes. Although she was still the daughter of a criminal, in terms of social status, even Qing Ge couldn't compare to her.
However, no matter how envious or jealous those palace maids were, no one came to compete with Murong Hanzhi for this honor. Because they knew all too well that Murong Hanzhi was gambling with her life. She might be infected by the Fifth Prince at any time and die.
Murong Hanzhi pretended not to hear the palace maids 'discussions. He just did his own thing every day, asking about the whereabouts of his younger brother and sister without attracting anyone's attention. That was all.
This morning, Murong Hanzhi accompanied Consort Yang Shu for a meal before heading to the Fifth Prince's place. Along the way, Consort Yang Shu asked her some questions about the Fifth Prince as usual, such as whether he was in a good mood or what he had said. Murong Hanzhi answered them one by one, and as they spoke, they had already entered the courtyard.
"Your Highness, speak to the Fifth Prince. This servant will take these clothes.”Murong Hanzhi bowed and went over to clean up. There were some bedsheets and clothes piled up in front of the door, emitting an unpleasant smell. However, she was already used to this smell. Now that she was doing these things, she did not have any special reaction.
Consort Yang Shu only took a glance before shifting her gaze away. Her eyes were filled with admiration and gratitude. She was the Fifth Prince's mother, and she wanted to vomit when she saw these stained clothes. However, Murong Hanzhi's expression did not change when he cleaned them up. Even if she was pretending, she was definitely the first person in the palace to be able to do so.
"Yue 'er, are you awake?"
Consort Yang Shu coughed lightly. She had fallen asleep last night when she was thinking about something. This morning, her head hurt a little, probably because she had caught a cold.
After a while, there was no movement in the room. Qing Ge saw that she was anxious and quickly advised," Your Highness, don't be anxious. It's still early. I think the Fifth Prince hasn't gotten up yet. This servant also sees that Your Highness 'body is not well. Why don't we go back and call the imperial physician to take a look at Your Highness first and come back later? Is that okay?"”
Consort Yang Shu originally wanted to insist, but after thinking about it, she could only sigh," Fine, Miss Murong, I'll trouble you to wait here, alright?”
"Yes, Empress." Murong Hanzhi replied. When she realized that her clothes were stained with yellowish-green stains, her expression immediately changed." Could it be that it has already reached this stage?"!”
Her words made Consort Yang Shu's body tremble. She suddenly stopped and turned around to look at her." You, what did you say?!”
This girl could actually tell the severity of Yue 'er's illness?! Ah, right! She suddenly remembered that when she first met Murong Hanzhi, she once said that she knew medicine. Could she be a god sent by heaven to save Yue 'er?
"This servant is too talkative. This servant deserves to die!" Murong Hanzhi was shocked and fell to his knees with a thud. He kowtowed repeatedly." I shouldn't have talked about the Fifth Prince's illness. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"”
This move was called retreating in order to advance. She believed that Consort Yang Shu would definitely get on her boat. No matter how serious the Fifth Prince's illness was, she was confident that with her medical skills, she would definitely be able to cure him.
Whether or not she could turn things around depended on this time. Everyone would seize the opportunity, and she was no exception.
Consort Yang Shu's heart was already in a mess. She could not see how cold Murong Hanzhi's gaze was. She rushed over to help her up and said anxiously," Miss Murong, you, can you really cure Yue 'er's illness?"!”
She had been looking forward to it for so long, but she had also been disappointed countless times. She really did not dare to have any more hope. Moreover, Murong Hanzhi was only a seventeen-year-old little girl.
Murong Hanzhi stood up obediently, but he did not dare to look at Consort Yang Shu. He replied softly," This servant has studied medicine for more than ten years under my teacher and has cured many difficult illnesses. As for the Fifth Prince's illness, this servant does not dare to make a definite judgment.”
After all, she had only seen these clothes and had not seen the Fifth Prince himself, so she could not make a conclusion too early.
"So you, you…" Consort Yang Shu almost couldn't speak. She really didn't expect that at such a young age, you had such ability,"Then, then…good, you come with BenGong, BenGong wants to talk to you in detail!"”
She was so excited that her entire body was trembling. She pulled Murong Hanzhi's hand and left. This little girl was only seventeen years old this year, but she had already studied medicine for more than ten years. Didn't she start learning medicine as soon as she was sensible? Although there wasn't much evidence, she instinctively regarded Murong Hanzhi as her son's savior and almost worshipped her!
Before Murong Hanzhi could agree, Consort Yang Shu pulled her hand and ran away. She followed quietly while sneering silently, If you are willing to trust me wholeheartedly, I promise to return you a Fifth Prince who is as good as new!
Returning to Jia Yuan Palace, Consort Yang Shu sat on the soft couch and panted heavily, unable to speak for a while. She knew that she shouldn't place her hopes on this little girl, but…
How should she put it? There was a voice in her heart that was tempting her, asking her to bet with the heavens this time and trust Murong Hanzhi!
After a long while, she took a deep breath and her mind gradually calmed down. Her eyes were calm." Miss Murong, you know about Yue 'er's situation. BenGong wants Yue' er to get better. Are you willing to treat Yue 'er?"”
She knew that Murong Hanzhi was an understanding person. There was no need to beat around the bush. Whether it was okay or not, it was just a sentence.
I was waiting for you to say this.
Murong Hanzhi looked straight into her eyes, his expression calm." Consort Shu is straightforward, and this servant does not dare to be pretentious. This servant wants Consort Shu to understand that whether this servant can cure the Fifth Prince's illness is still unknown.”
She was confident, but there was no absolute thing in this world. It was hard to guarantee that there would not be any accidents. It was better not to block her way out first.
This was natural. Consort Yang Shu nodded without thinking. Hearing that Murong Hanzhi had the intention of relenting, her face was already filled with surprise." You just have to try your best. As for the result, I don't dare to force it."”
Murong Hanzhi nodded but fell silent again. His eyes flickered. It was obvious that he wanted to say something but didn't dare.
" If you have any concerns, just tell me. I will definitely answer you." Consort Yang Shu was so anxious that she leaned forward slightly. Cold sweat was about to drip down." I know that Yue 'er's illness is contagious, but, but you-"
She knew that Murong Hanzhi was worried about this, but she had no choice. If she wanted to treat Yue 'er, it was very likely that she would lose her life. If it were her, she would also hesitate.
Murong Hanzhi raised his head to look at her, as if he had decided on something." Consort Shu, don't say that I'm bold or don't know the immensity of heaven and earth. I want you to promise me one thing, and I'll be willing to treat the Fifth Prince's illness, even if I have to die."”
"Tell me!" Without waiting for Murong Hanzhi to finish speaking, Consort Yang Shu immediately agreed," As long as this Queen can do it, this Queen will definitely not decline!”
These words were true. She was currently favored by the Emperor. As long as it was not a treasonous matter, there was really nothing that could make things difficult for her.
"Since Your Highness knows that this servant is the daughter of the traitor Murong Luo, you must also know that this servant has a younger brother and sister who are also slaves in the palace.”Murong Hanzhi smiled bitterly and looked at Consort Yang Shu's reaction." This servant dares to ask the Empress to protect both of them."”
In fact, even if she didn't need anyone to protect her, her sister-in-law wouldn't end up in such a miserable state. Because they had already entered the palace as slaves, just like those palace maids and guards, they only needed to work hard every day and wouldn't have any worries about their lives.
"However, if Consort Yang Shu had spoken, they would have been safer and suffered less.”
"Hmm?" Consort Yang Shu was stunned. She simply couldn't believe it. For her, would it be too simple and not be able to repay Murong Hanzhi for risking his life to save Yue 'er?
"This is the matter. I beg the Empress to grant my wish.”Murong Hanzhi knelt down and kowtowed deeply.
Because she had yet to treat the Fifth Prince, she did not know what she could do, so she did not dare to ask for too much. If she could really cure the Fifth Prince, Consort Yang Shu would definitely be grateful to her. At that time, if she asked for anything, wouldn't it be much more advantageous than now?
Although she had not been bullied for a long time, she had learned many things. Moreover, when she was still a princess, she was not a weak and ignorant young miss.
" Don't worry, Miss Murong. I can make the decision on this matter." Consort Yang Shu's heart fell back into her stomach and she quickly reached out to help her up." After I report to the Emperor, I'll transfer the two of them to Jia Yuan Palace."”
"Thank you, Consort Shu!" Murong Hanzhi cried tears of joy. He got up and knelt down again, kowtowing loudly."As long as Sister-in-law is safe, she won't have to worry about anything. She can go all out!”
