Consort Yang Shu relayed Murong Hanzhi's words to Gu Zhu Lie. He was also filled with regret. He said that he shouldn't have let the Fifth Prince drink before he recovered from his illness. Although he hadn't seen the Fifth Prince's old illness relapse, once he learned about it, it was a huge blow to him. His illness worsened. Consort Yang Shu was scared out of her wits. She handed the Fifth Prince over to Murong Hanzhi to take care of while she waited in Clear Sun Hall day and night.
As a result, other than the servants, only Murong Hanzhi and the Fifth Prince were in the huge Jia Yuan Palace. It was usually very quiet. Murong Hanzhi readjusted the prescription according to the Fifth Prince's condition. Although his condition was dangerous, it was also very fast. After three to five days, the blood blisters on the Fifth Prince's body had all scabbed over, and some had already begun to fall off. He was almost fully recovered.
"I'm fine, I'm fine!" Seeing the scabs on his body fall off one by one, revealing the tender new muscles inside, the Fifth Prince was so excited that he jumped up and down like a child. "Sister Murong, look, look, I'm really fine!”
Of course, he should be happy. Thinking about the torture he had suffered for more than a year, it was like a dream. He did not want to taste that kind of pain again. Sometimes, in his dreams late at night, he would always dream that he had returned to the way he used to be. After being scared awake, he would never be able to fall asleep again.
Now, it was all thanks to Sister Murong's miraculous hand that cured him. He could not express his gratitude to her at all. He was even more afraid that if he acted too intensely, he would scare his savior.
"Alright, Fifth Prince, you've been shouting for an hour. Aren't you tired?”Murong Hanzhi smiled at him and shook his head. She was becoming more and more aware of the Fifth Prince's pure nature. How could such a person possibly defeat the Crown Prince?
"I'm happy!" The Fifth Prince raised his arm and shouted, then he bounced back to the table and sat down." Sister Murong, I heard that Imperial Father is sick. Is that true?”Although he did not step out of Jia Yuan Palace, he still knew some things. Consort Yang Shu had not returned for a few days and had only sent someone to ask a question. If he still could not tell that something was wrong, wouldn't he become a heartless person?
Murong Hanzhi stopped smiling and nodded." Yes, the Emperor is worried about your health, so... but with the Imperial Physician here, the Emperor should be fine. It's more important for you to recuperate first."”
When she thought of the Emperor, she couldn't help but think of the Crown Prince's ambitions. However, if she told the Emperor now, the Emperor would definitely not believe her. If she didn't remind him to take precautions, what if…
But then again, what did the matters between the royal family have to do with her? No matter who became the emperor, it didn't make any difference to her, right? If they fought to the death for the throne, the world would be in chaos. Wouldn't she have a better chance of escaping?
"Sister Murong?" The Fifth Prince stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her. He was amused." What are you thinking?”He had been calling her for a long time, but she still did not respond. What was she thinking about?
"Oh?" Murong Hanzhi snapped out of his daze. His face was pale as he forced a smile." What did the Fifth Prince say?”
Seeing her embarrassed look, the Fifth Prince only pursed his lips and smiled. Xiao Yun 'er continued," Miss, just now the Fifth Prince said that he was worried about the Emperor and wanted to go to Clear Sun Hall to pay his respects to the Emperor. He asked if you could.”
This? Murong Hanzhi muttered to himself. If the Crown Prince was here, wouldn't it be bad if they bumped into each other? The Fifth Prince still didn't know that the Crown Prince had harmed him, and she still didn't have concrete evidence. What if the Crown Prince took the opportunity to harm the Fifth Prince again, what would she do?
"Can't I, Big Sister Murong?" The Fifth Prince was immediately disappointed." Then I won't go. I know that my illness might come back at any time. It's better not to harm Imperial Father."”
"No!" Murong Hanzhi was anxious and denied," Your illness will not infect the Emperor. I'm just worried…Forget it, Yun 'er, you go with the Fifth Prince, understand?”She gave Xiao Yun 'er a look, and only she could understand what she meant.
Xiao Yun 'er returned her gaze, but her expression remained unchanged." Yes, Miss."”
The Fifth Prince was happy again. He ran into the inner room to change his clothes. Murong Hanzhi was about to give Xiao Yun 'er some more instructions when the servant beside Gu Zhu Lie came in and said that the Emperor wanted to see her.
"The Emperor summoned me?" Murong Hanzhi was taken aback." What is it?"
The chamberlain smiled obsequiously and said in a sharp voice," This old servant doesn't know. Hehe, Divine Doctor Murong's status is extraordinary now. The Emperor only ordered for Divine Doctor Murong to be summoned. The other old servants wouldn't dare to ask."”
She was another master who knew how to adapt to the situation. Previously, they had all called her " the daughter of a guilty minister ", and now, she had become " Divine Doctor Murong ". The difference in status between the two was like clouds and mud.
"What?" The Fifth Prince changed his clothes and came out. When he heard every word, he became even happier." Imperial Father wants to see Sister Murong?! Let's go!" He didn't care if Murong Hanzhi was willing or not, he pulled her hand and left.
"Miss?" Xiao Yun 'er was only in a daze for a while, but the two of them had already run far away. She could only smile helplessly and turn around to pack up. With a young lady present, even if he were to meet the Crown Prince, he should be fine. No matter how bold the Crown Prince was, he would never do anything to the Fifth Prince in front of the Emperor and Consort Yang Shu.
In the East Hall of the Clear Sun Palace, Gu Zhu Lie and Consort Yang Shu were talking. He looked fine, but his face was pale, as if he was too cold. The chamberlain came in to announce that the Fifth Prince and Miss Murong had arrived. He waved his hand." Let them in to talk."”
The chamberlain replied and turned to leave. Not long after, two people came in and knelt down."Your son (servant) greets Imperial Father and Imperial Mother (Emperor, Consort Shu)!”
"Ahem!" Perhaps because he was too excited to see the Fifth Prince alive, Lone Bamboo Lie started coughing violently. His eyes were shining as he stared at the Fifth Prince. Seeing that his complexion was so good, and there were basically no more blood blisters on his face, he should be fine, right?
" The Emperor?!" Consort Yang Shu was shocked. She didn't even have time to look at the child. She quickly patted Lone Bamboo Lie's back to calm him down." Don't worry, Your Majesty. Yue 'er is fine, isn't he?"”
The Fifth Prince kneeled in front of Gu Zhu Lie and looked up at him." Yes, Father! I'm fine!" Your son knows that Imperial Father is worried and anxious for this disappointing thing. He has suffered a lot. Your son is very uncomfortable. Imperial Father, punish your son. Your son has no complaints!”
This child! Consort Yang Shu was originally filled with worry, but when she heard him say that he was a "disappointing thing", she couldn't help but feel angry and amused. She rolled her eyes at him, not knowing what to say.
" You…" Although Lone Bamboo Lie's face was stern, his eyes were smiling. He patted the Fifth Prince's tender face." You're so sweet!" How could I bear to punish you? Besides, you've just recovered from your illness. If I punish you again, will Xin-er spare me?”
"Your Majesty!" Consort Yang Shu's face immediately turned red. She was secretly delighted at how much Lone Bamboo Lie doted on them." The Emperor is going along with Yue 'er again!" It's fine if he's messing around, but how could the emperor…"
"Hahaha!" Gu Zhu Lie laughed out loud, causing him to cough again. However, it didn't affect his good mood. He turned to Murong Hanzhi, who was standing quietly on the side. He stopped laughing and his expression became cold again." Murong Hanzhi, you have saved Yue 'er. I know what you have done. I will reward you."”
" This servant wouldn't dare." Murong Hanzhi lowered his eyes and didn't dare to make any strange movements." This servant said that saving the Fifth Prince was this servant's own will and also to atone for my father's sins. If the Emperor were to say anything about the reward, this servant would blush.”
Seeing her so tactful, Consort Yang Shu couldn't help but nod her head in satisfaction, liking her more and more. Although she had already decided on the candidate for the Fifth Prince's wife, Murong Hanzhi could not be her daughter-in-law, but she could be someone else. For example, taking her as an adopted daughter was not bad. Of course, this matter was not urgent. He would wait until Yue 'er's illness was completely cured.
" Yes." Lone Bamboo Lie nodded." I called you here today to ask when Yue 'er will recover. I want to…" He stopped talking. It was obvious that he didn't want Murong Hanzhi to know about something.
Murong Hanzhi's heart sank. Without Lone Bamboo Lie's explanation, she had already guessed what was going on." Your Majesty, if nothing goes wrong, the Fifth Prince will be fine once all the scabs fall off."”
"Accident?" "You mean like last time?"”Isn't that kind of accident under your control? And there's no guarantee that it will happen again?
Murong Hanzhi became anxious when he saw the displeasure on his face. Cold sweat broke out on the tip of his nose." This servant…means that the Fifth Prince has just recovered from a serious illness and is still very weak, so it's better to be careful." Didn't Consort Shu already report to the Emperor that no one is allowed to enter Jia Yuan Palace? This way, there should be no problem.”
While she spoke, she secretly sneered. Emperor, oh emperor, no matter how wise you are, you would never have thought that this so-called "accident" was all because of the Crown Prince!
" Fine." Lone Bamboo Lie pondered for a while and then nodded." In that case, you should take care of Yue 'er until he recovers."”His words were shockingly consistent with Consort Yang Shu's words, but why didn't he think about it? If Murong Hanzhi wanted to use their trust in her to do something, it would be too easy.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Murong Hanzhi bowed her head in agreement. When she turned to look at the Fifth Prince, she saw that he was smiling but not saying a word. He was even making faces at her. Her face turned red and she did not dare to look at him.
This young man seemed to be used to being alone with Murong Hanzhi. Consort Yang Shu was not around for a while, which was to his liking.
