Yan Ruyu handed the medicine to Green Lake. In addition to anti-inflammatory medicine, there was also a prescription for replenishing qi and blood, and a box of ointment for removing scars.

"Apply this after the small incision is completely healed. Keep applying it and the scar should not be too obvious."

Yan Ruyu knew that girls all love to be beautiful and don't want scars on their bodies, especially girls from ancient times.

Princess Mingzhao chuckled: "Thank you, Princess, but it doesn't matter if you have a few scars. I am not a Jiaojiao lady. This scar can always remind me."

Yan Ruyu nodded, it was up to her to make the decision on this matter.

Princess Mingzhao drank a small bowl of clear porridge, feeling much better in her stomach and warm all over her body.

"It's like living again." She raised her finger, "It's the same here."

Yan Ruyu laughed dumbly. At this moment, Princess Mingzhao's face was slightly red and her eyes were shining. Although her hair was messy and she had no makeup or jewelry, she looked more real and lovely.

I remember that when we first met, Yan Ruyu looked at her like a dummy in a beautiful shell. Now the shell shattered, revealing a weak but bright and new core.

At this moment, Huo Changhe said in the outer room: "Yu'er, come here."

Princess Mingzhao smiled and said with her eyes: "Go quickly."

Yan Ruyu stood up and went out. Lu Hu wiped the corners of Princess Mingzhao's mouth with a handkerchief: "Miss, seeing you happy makes me happy too."

Princess Mingzhao looked at her: "Silly girl, I've made you suffer."

"My slave is not suffering," Lu Hu blushed slightly, "It was my negligence that allowed Ruzhi to succeed, and you have suffered a great sin."

"A blessing in disguise," Princess Mingzhao sighed, "This was worth it. If not, I would still be trapped in this house, living the same day over and over again."

"Green Lake, when I get better and the weather gets warmer, let's go out for a walk together."

Green Lake said without hesitation: "Okay, where will the lady go? Where will the slave go?"

"Where is Mu Chen?" Princess Mingzhao asked, suddenly remembering that she hadn't seen him for several days.

"Mu Chen also heard from somewhere that there is spiritual grass on the mountain, and he has been out to collect it for a few days."

"Quickly pass the message and ask him to come back, but be sure not to cause any danger again."

"Yes, my slave will send the news early tomorrow morning."

There are several homing pigeons in the mansion, raised by Mu Chen. He and Lu Hu are both confidants of Princess Mingzhao. One is in charge of the back house and the other is in charge of the front yard.

If it weren't for Princess Mingzhao's illness, Mu Chen would not have left to find medicine in person.

When Yan Ruyu went to the outer room, Huo Changhe combed her hair: "Are you tired? Everything has been taken care of here. You don't need to keep an eye on me anymore. Why don't you go back and rest first?"

Yan Ruyu was indeed a little tired. Of course, it would be most comfortable to go back to her home to rest. However, tonight's matter was very important and she could not slack off.

"It's okay, I'm not tired." Yan Ruyu glanced outside, where Military Doctor Cao and the others were gathering together, muttering something unknown.

"Miaomiao has done the work. I sent a message to the secret guards. The secret guards near Shen Mansion will pay close attention to the movements there."

Yan Ruyu thought for a while, and she was naturally relieved about Huo Changhe's arrangements.

But when she thought about Shen Huaixin's sinister method, which ultimately wanted to harm Huo Changhe, she couldn't calm down, let alone believe that it was foolproof.

"After all, the one here died for a while. Although it didn't last long, if the mother and son are really sensitive, they must be suspicious over there."

Yan Ruyu frowned slightly: "I still need to think of another remedy."

Huo Changhe gently hugged her and comforted her softly: "Don't be too nervous. Their plan didn't succeed. Isn't that good of me? Yu'er, I will be careful in everything."

Huo Changhe stroked her lightly frowned eyebrows with his fingers, and a smile appeared on his lips: "Besides, I'm better than Shen Huaixin in every aspect, so you don't have confidence in me?"

Yan Ruyu laughed dumbly: "Of course not."

Huo Changhe was trying to comfort her and saw her nervousness, how could she not know it.

"I just want to end this matter as soon as possible," Yan Ruyu held his hand, "Let's go see Ruzhi."

Ruzhi was still outside, and Yan Ruyu said to Dr. Cao, "Take her to the wing."

In front of the kitchen was a small utility room. A candle was lit, and Sun Chuchu, Cao's military doctor, worked together to carry Ruzhi in.

There is no charcoal fire in this room, and it is not warm, but it is much better than outside.

The branches are still useful and cannot be frozen to death.

Yan Ruyu's fingertips are as green as green, and she is holding a white jade bottle.

"Ruzhi, do you and Shen Huaixin have an unusual relationship?"

Ruzhi pursed her lips, a little hard to say.

"You've done it, don't be shy," Yan Ruyu disagreed, "I'm not interested in this, I just want to see how important you are in Shen Huaixin's mind."

Ruzhi seemed to see a glimmer of hope and quickly replied: "He values ​​me very much. He has not married yet, but he said he would marry me."

Yan Ruyu stared at her for two seconds, and she saw a hint of amusement in Yan Ruyu's eyes.

"It's true..." Ruzhi himself was not confident enough, "If you don't believe me, take me to Shen's Mansion and ask him to exchange things. He will definitely exchange them."

"I don't need to take anything from him," Yan Ruyu twirled the bottle on her fingertips, "I don't need to exchange it with you."

"I can let you go to Shen's mansion."

Ruzhi was about to give up, but couldn't help but tensed up after hearing this.

"However, you must agree to one condition."

Ruzhi nodded quickly: "I agree!"

"Don't say it too early. I haven't said it yet. If you are so anxious, I will think you are not sincere," Yan Ruyu smiled half-heartedly.

"I will definitely do as you're told. As long as you let me go, I'm willing to do anything." Ruzhi expressed his position quickly.

"Okay, then you go tell Shen Huaixin that something went wrong tonight. You were too nervous, your hands were shaking, and you added too many things. Princess Mingzhao is weak and almost died with both people and things."

Ruzhi was stunned - didn't this make her lie?

"This...is easy to say, but he may not believe it. I'm afraid he still has to have someone investigate the situation."

"It seems that he doesn't fully trust you," Yan Ruyu sneered lightly, "But you don't have to worry about this. Just say it. The more truthful it is, the better."

"If he finds out the true situation, then I..."

"Ruzhi," Yan Ruyu took out a stack of banknotes and flipped them over in front of her.

Ruzhi opened his eyes and saw clearly that all those banknotes were in denominations of ten thousand taels, more than twenty in total.

That’s more than two hundred thousand taels!

Ruzhi's breathing was rapid. She had never touched even two thousand taels, let alone two hundred thousand taels!

"As long as you have done it, you can find an opportunity to leave Shen's Mansion quietly tomorrow morning, and someone will pick you up. These banknotes will be yours. The carriage will also be prepared for you, and you can go wherever you want."

"With this kind of money, let alone Shen Huaixin, even if you buy a big house and raise a few faces, it will be enough for you to live in the next life."

"Either you stay here, or you promise me to do it and get it done, or you can pretend to promise me that after you see Shen Huaixin, tell him everything. I'm sure he will trust you and be grateful to you, and then, Leave you in Shen Mansion."

"I don't know whether he will marry you or not, but it will never be just you."

"You think about it and make your own choice."

Is this still a choice? Ruzhi had the answer almost without thinking.
