Yan Ruyu stood up after giving the instructions.

"Let Madam take good care of herself and stop worrying about trivial matters. Eat a light diet and I'll come back to see you in a few days."

Mu Liangze was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise: "Doesn't the princess need to prescribe a prescription?"

"This……"

Yan Ruyu nodded: "No, the acupuncture has already been done, just follow the method I told you."

Dried fruits are made from red fruits and are more effective than any medicine. The poison caused by food incompatibility is very strong and can be fatal, but Mrs. Mu's condition is not that serious.

But Yan Ruyu couldn't tell Mu Liangze that dried fruit water was stronger than medicine.

I don't want to say anything to him.

Mu Liangze was half-believing and half-doubting, but Yan Ruyu ignored him and said to Linlang in the outer room, "Linlang, go and deliver the letter to the prince."

"Yes."

Although it delayed some time, it was still in time to go to Shenyuan Temple.

Mu Liangze was startled: "Princess, what letter are you sending to the prince? Does the prince also know about the affairs of my family?"

Yan Ruyu glanced at him and said, "It has nothing to do with you."

Mu Liangze choked and wanted to ask again, but Yan Ruyu had already walked out.

Mrs. Cao followed closely behind, and Mu Liangze followed out, chattering incessantly.

"Thank you, Princess. It is a blessing for my wife to come and treat her illness. I am deeply grateful..."

Yan Ruyu remained silent. Madam Cao could not help but say, "General Mu, please stay. It is better for you to go back and see Madam and pay more attention to her."

"Yes, Madam, you are absolutely right. If I had known earlier that Governor Cao and Madam Cao were a loving couple..."

Madam Cao could no longer bear it: "Your wife is ill, and suddenly there is a food incompatibility. The problem is with the medicinal diet that has been fine for several years. Why don't you investigate it carefully and think about why this happened? Why are you involving me and my master?"

Mu Liangze said awkwardly: "Yes, yes, I don't know how to speak..."

"If you can't speak, don't speak. Just stay."

Mrs. Cao was furious. Yan Ruyu looked at her and the corners of her mouth curled up quickly.

After the two of them left the house, Madam Cao let out a heavy sigh, "I'm really pissed off. What kind of man is this? Madam Mu is so lucky to be alive today."

"If it were me, I would have died of anger a long time ago. Why would I need others to harm me?"

Yan Ruyu looked back at the Mu family's front door: "Mu Liangze is inactive, shirking responsibility for everything, and can't even sort out family affairs."

Changing the subject, Yan Ruyu asked, "I heard him mention a granary. Is he working in a granary? Which granary?"

Madam Cao said, "It's the one that the third son of the Wu family serves. Mu Liangze is in charge of guarding. He is called a lieutenant general, but in fact he is just a reward from the court. He doesn't have many people under him. If he is really that powerful and can guard well, the third son of the Wu family will not be able to secretly sell military rations."

This is true.

Yan Ruyu was surprised: "They are actually in the same granary?"

"That's right. After Wu Laosan's secret sale of military rations was exposed, Mu Liangze was also implicated."

"It's his duty. He was the guard. After such a big incident, he should be punished," Yan Ruyu said without comment.

Huo Changhe hadn't arrived yet, so Madam Cao said, "Princess, why don't you go to the carriage to warm up for a while and leave when the prince arrives."

Yan Ruyu agreed, and the two got on the carriage to chat again.

"I heard from my master that he should be severely punished. Beating him with a stick or demoting him would not be excessive. However, the Mu family is the descendant of the Duke's Mansion after all, and..."

Madam Cao sighed, "The court seems to want to re-employ the Mu family, so they can't punish them too severely. So, the people over there put the blame on Wu Lao San."

Yan Ruyu raised her eyes and looked at her: "The court wants to use the Mu family? Didn't the son of Duke Dingguo intend to rebel back then? Can this be forgiven?"

"This is what my master said. He mentioned it in a letter to officials during the New Year. The court is too far away from us. Things in the court change rapidly and we cannot understand them."

Yan Ruyu was unhappy.

The ambition of the son of Duke Dingguo was genuine, and he was not wronged. If it were not for the merits of Duke Dingguo, their clan might have been executed, and they would not even have been exiled.

Just because of Mu Liangze's virtue, the imperial court actually wanted to re-employ him.

However, Huo Changhe had made great military achievements, was loyal, and had never had any intention of rebellion, but he was still exiled. How many people from the Huo family died along the way?

If she hadn't come, it would be hard to say whether the eldest lady and Changheng and his mother could arrive safely.

No, she remembered her grandfather once said that the royal family was unjustly exiled, with countless casualties, and only a few people reached the northwest.

What did the prince do wrong? The imperial court issued an order to erase his merits, make him bear the blame, and cause heavy casualties to his family.

Up to now, the imperial court has not issued any decree.

But what is the Mu family? What kind of person is Mu Liangze?

Madam Cao saw that she looked unhappy and guessed that she felt it was unfair, so she whispered, "Princess, don't be angry. The Mu family is no longer the Mu family it is today. Even if they are employed, it would only be a sinecure."

"This has nothing to do with whether I am idle or not," Yan Ruyu didn't want to discuss this anymore. "I don't know if they can find out what's wrong with Madam Mu."

Madam Cao snorted, "I think it was most likely Mu Baodi's doing."

Mrs. Cao also saw Mu Baodi's evasive look at that time.

"I never thought she would be so vicious. Although Madam Mu is not her biological mother, it sounds like she hasn't treated her harshly. How could she hate someone so much?"

"Besides, even if there is any dissatisfaction, it should be directed to her father. If Mu Liangze didn't marry her, would she come? You don't dare to go against her father, but come to embarrass her."

Yan Ruyu agreed: "Mu Liangze is confused. He only knows how to avoid and blame others when things happen. It's not surprising that his family is in such a mess."

Madam Cao nodded: "That's right. If you don't know anything when asked, you will scold the servants."

Both of them are women and wives, and they both feel helpless when they meet such husbands.

After a brief silence, there was the sound of wheels, and Huo Changhe arrived.

Yan Ruyu said goodbye to Mrs. Cao and got on her own carriage.

The eldest lady quickly handed over the hand warmer: "Quick, warm it up."

Huo Changhe handed over the hot tea he had prepared: "Have a cup."

"Everything you want is here," the eldest lady patted the bag beside her, "Can we take it in the car?"

"no problem."

The carriage drove away from the Mu family's gate, and the doctor asked in a low voice: "How is she? Is she okay?"

After drinking a cup of hot tea, Yan Ruyu held the small hand warmer and felt much warmer.

"It's not serious, but if we can't find out what's going on, it's going to be fatal. Someone must have tampered with her medicinal food."

When she told the story, the eldest lady was surprised: "Is there such a thing?"

"Yes, I don't know who did it. Let them investigate it themselves. I won't get involved in other people's family affairs."

"Yes, Yu'er is right, well done."

The eldest lady praised: "We have done our best to save her life."
