On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Yan Ruyu nodded, thoughtfully.

Seeing that she looked the same, Huo Changhe asked, "What's wrong? Are you worried about what happened just now? Yinding said that Tang Yibai didn't find out, so he didn't find out. I still have some confidence in him."

"Besides, even if Tang Yibai knew, it wouldn't be a big deal."

Yan Ruyu shook her head: "No, I'm not referring to Tang Yibai."

"You mean..."

Yan Ruyu said as she pulled him away: "When we were outside the city gate before, I wanted to tell the prince that I always felt that the Ninth Princess and her maid were a little strange."

"My Lord, have you ever heard of the strange disease that the Ninth Princess has?"

Huo Changhe paused: "Why do you ask?"

Yan Ruyu just tried to ask, and seeing Huo Changhe's reaction, it seemed like he really knew the answer.

"Really?"

Huo Changhe recalled: "It's not a strange disease. I just heard that the Ninth Princess has been different from ordinary people since she was born. Her health is not very good. The Emperor Dacheng secretly ordered people to find various famous doctors from the people. However, no matter how secret it is, it is impossible for such a thing to not have a little rumor."

"It is said that half of the doctors in the Imperial Hospital of Ayutthaya Palace were there for the Ninth Princess that year, which shows how seriously ill she was."

"But she gradually recovered. She rarely showed up in public before, but later she showed up frequently."

"These are things that happened a long time ago. I was very young at that time. These things were learned a few years ago in Shencheng when I was fighting against Dacheng. In order to understand the opponent, I specially asked the secret guards to investigate from all aspects."

"At that time, I didn't think that I would have any chance to meet the Ninth Princess, so I only knew this much. If you hadn't asked me, I would have almost forgotten it."

Yan Ruyu asked, "Didn't you find out what the disease is?"

Huo Changhe shook his head: "No, those who have treated her, whether they were imperial physicians or folk doctors, have all disappeared one after another. You don't need to guess who meant it."

Who else could it be? Of course, it was the Emperor Dacheng.

"I have another question. The Emperor of Dacheng has many children, including princes and princesses. Why does he favor this Ninth Princess so much?"

The feeling of favoritism filled every sentence of Huo Changhe's description, which made Yan Ruyu puzzled. If he said that he had no daughter, but had a youngest daughter and had held her in his hands since childhood, it would be understandable.

However, the eldest princess of Dacheng was also famous. She was beautiful and talented, and an outstanding woman.

Among Emperor Dacheng's other children, some were talented, while others were mediocre, but the Ninth Princess was the only one who was favored the most.

Huo Changhe wrapped Yan Ruyu's hand in his palm, walked slowly, and whispered: "It is said that although the Ninth Princess's biological mother is not the Queen, she is the childhood sweetheart of the Dacheng Emperor. When he was young, he wanted to marry her as the Queen, but due to various reasons, he was unable to make her the Queen. Since he could not give her power, he gave her the few loves he had. He loved the Ninth Princess and loved her too."

It’s a very old-fashioned plot. Yan Ruyu feels that this reason alone is a bit thin.

Facing her eyes, Huo Changhe chuckled: "This is only a small part of the reason. The more important reason is that the Emperor of Dacheng trusts their national teacher very much. According to the national teacher, the Ninth Princess is born with good fortune and can help Daqing prosper."

Yan Ruyu was surprised: "National Master? And you said that the Ninth Princess is blessed?"

"That's right." Huo Changhe nodded. "I think this is probably why the Emperor Dacheng favors her and does everything he can to cure her illness."

Yan Ruyu was silent for a moment: "Since she can bring blessings and help the destiny of Daqing, why would the Emperor of Daqing be willing to let her come to marry?"

"It's like if we have a national treasure, would we give it away easily?"

"At the beginning, the Emperor of Daqing said in the marriage letter that the Ninth Princess was born with good fortune and could bring peace to the two countries. This was her natural mission. Our Emperor must have noticed this and decided to marry her against all odds."

Yan Ruyu felt something was wrong: "If that were true, why would the Crown Prince give such a good opportunity to the Sixth Prince?"

"Besides," she shook her head slowly, "I still think that the Emperor Dacheng's attitude is problematic. From a father's perspective, his daughter, whom he raised like a jewel, has been weak since childhood. He has finally raised her well, and now he wants to send her to marry far away. This is not just an ordinary marriage far away."

"From an emperor's perspective, it is a matter of national destiny. Even if it is fake, it will not be easily given to the opponent."

"Your Highness, do you know that there was a prince in history who heard that the chief of the grassland had a little daughter. A wandering monk said that she had the appearance of a mother of the country. The prince tried every means to marry the girl, which led to the separation of the girl and her lover. Moreover, the prince already had a wife at that time."

"You see, if there is even a slight possibility, I will not give this opportunity to anyone else."

Huo Changhe paused and said, "Yu'er's words are indeed reasonable. But it was the Imperial Master who said that the Ninth Princess should marry. The Emperor Dacheng believed in the Imperial Master."

Yan Ruyu frowned slightly: "Your Highness, let's not talk about the Emperor Dacheng's thoughts for now. I asked if the Ninth Princess had a hidden illness because I had an idea and wanted to talk to Your Highness about it."

Huo Changhe said: "Yu'er, just say whatever you want to say."

……

Inside the post house.

The doctor gave the little maid medicine twice, but there was no improvement.

The little maid looked in the mirror and saw her horrible face. She became so angry that she wanted to rummage through the doctor's medicine box.

"The last two doses of medicine didn't work, what's the use of these broken things!"

When she got angry, her skin became even redder, and the little red blisters looked fuller, as if they would burst if not touched.

She has always been arrogant and domineering. She was the princess's most trusted confidant. When she was in the imperial city, she was also a lady-in-waiting in the princess's palace.

These doctors didn't dare to offend her at all, and now that they were being scolded, they lowered their heads and dared not speak.

"Get out!" She slammed the mirror down. "Get out!"

The doctors all stood up and left, and the little maid was so angry that she threw plates and cups.

In the corridor outside the station, Tang Yibai listened quietly. He did not go in to stop them, nor did he speak for the doctors.

He acted as if he didn't hear anything, and his brows didn't change. After the little maid finished smashing the things, he ordered people to go in and clean up.

The Ninth Princess said from behind him: "Master Tang, you have received the Princess Order, what are you going to do next?"

"Princess, don't worry. I will tell you what to do when the time comes."

After he finished speaking, he tilted his head to look in the direction of the maid in the room: "Princess, you should find a way to restrain her."

The Ninth Princess did not answer, and he did not wait for her to answer before turning around and leaving.

As night fell, the noises outside gradually died down.

The ninth princess tossed and turned in bed.

Ever since entering Youcheng, nothing has gone smoothly. What should I do in the future?

As I was daydreaming, I suddenly felt wind blowing in through the rear window.

The wind was extremely cold at night. She was about to get up to take a look when two figures flashed by and came in from the back window.

The Ninth Princess swallowed the scream that was about to burst out of her throat and reached out to grab the dagger under the pillow.
