With the protection of the masters brought by the eldest princess, as well as Lu Chuan and Zhou Qian'an, Jiang Yuan returned to his room and had a sound sleep.

She didn't even have lunch and slept until night, when Luzhu woke her up for dinner.

Sitting on the bed, with a dazed look in his eyes, he rubbed his face twice and looked at the busy Luzhu, "How is Chunzhi?"

"It's okay. She doesn't have a fever anymore, but she still has a cough. I'm afraid she'll be infected, so let her stay in the house."

I stretched and walked to the table. I had some light porridge and side dishes. Fortunately, they brought their own pickles to enhance the flavor, otherwise I would have vomited.

"How is Xie Yunxiao?" He asked after taking a sip of porridge, feeling relieved for his empty stomach.

Lu Zhu was sitting next to her, eating with Jiang Yuan. When she heard her question, she put down her bowl and chopsticks and answered, "The doctor changed the dressing on General Xie's wound today.

I still have a fever. The doctor said it depends on how the wound heals.

Oh, by the way, General Xie had a wound on his back. Maybe it had been there for a long time and the wound had become festered. Today the doctor scraped off the rotten flesh.

I could hear General Xie's muffled groans in the yard. Oh, it hurts just thinking about it."

I saw it when I was treating his wound yesterday, but Jiang Yuan didn't have any suitable tools and was afraid that she couldn't handle it, so she could only apply medicine and bandage it temporarily.

He explained this to Lu Chuan before leaving, and I guess Lu Chuan asked a doctor to re-examine his wound.

After finishing the porridge in a few mouthfuls, he picked up a steamed bun, broke it open, and put the pickled vegetables in between. "Let's go and see General Xie."

He picked up the steamed bun and invited Luzhu to join him. Luzhu also imitated Jiang Yuan and put pickles in the middle of the steamed bun.

I thought it was just so-so, but it turned out to be surprisingly delicious after one bite. The steamed bun was dipped in the spicy soup of the pickles, and the salty and spicy pickles, coupled with the sweet fragrance of the steamed bun, were really delicious.

Luzhu opened her eyes wide, chewed something, and nodded at Jiang Yuan continuously, (???)!

When I got over there, I had finished the steamed bun in my hand. Lanterns were lit in the yard. Unlike the dark and gloomy yesterday, it was bright today.

There were guards guarding outside and inside the courtyard. In the corridor, the doctor's apprentice was boiling medicine.

Lu Chuan and Zhou Qian'an were in Xie Yunxiao's room with the door open. When Lu Chuan saw Jiang Yuan coming in, he stood up to greet him.

"How is Fourth Brother?" Jiang Yuan asked, walking into the room and glancing at the bed.

Zhou Qian poured tea for Jiang Yuan and said, "He went to bed. He is fine."

After saying that, the two of them seemed to have thought of something, and they became stiff at the same time, with a hint of awkwardness in the atmosphere.

Jiang Yuan coughed lightly, his eyes moving between the two of them, "If you have something to say, just say it."

Lu Chuan chuckled, "Well, it was Xiao, Xiao Wu, who gave him the medicine yesterday, right?"

Jiang Yuan answered seriously, "No, I'm on it."

Phew~ Zhou Qian'an just felt embarrassed, picked up the teacup, and the tea he took a sip of sprayed out.

Raising his hand to wipe his mouth, he tried to smooth things over by saying, "Thank you, brother, you are already like that. Second sister is here to save people. Doctors don't distinguish between men and women."

What he said seemed to be a matter of course, but his voice and unconscious punctuation betrayed his heart.

"You two, you are so feudal. I, a girl, didn't say anything. He was looked at, not me. How come a grown man loses a piece of meat when he is looked at twice?"

Lu Chuan clapped his hands and Zhou Qian gave a thumbs up. Well, he was taught a lesson by the little girl.

"I will return to the capital with the eldest princess tomorrow. The events in Dongshan County must be made known to the emperor as soon as possible. Will you two stay here to look after Fourth Brother Xie?" Jiang Yuan asked.

Zhou Qian nodded, "I will stay. Lu Chuan has to go back to the academy. Yun Xiao can return to Beijing in a few days. He will live directly at the Lu family and needs to pack up in advance."

Looking back at the sleeping Xie Yunxiao, Jiang Yuan took out a bottle of calming incense from his arms, "This is calming incense. The eldest princess brought it specially. She was afraid that he would have trouble sleeping due to the pain, so she put it on the bedside for him."

Zhou Qian took it and shook the bottle. "Second sister's incense is hard to come by. I can only buy it from the eldest princess. When will the next batch be made? I'll order some first."

"It's easy. Just write down what you want. You don't have to look for the princess. You can just come to me directly." Jiang Yuan was drinking tea from the cup. She knew all this, but she didn't understand.

Lu Chuan smiled and answered the question for Zhou Qi'an, "A Yuan, don't tell me that Madam Zhou is looking for a daughter-in-law all over the city now, if she knew that Qi'an has a relationship with you.

Haha, maybe the betrothal gifts have already been brought in. If you are not interested in him, don't approach him at this time."

It was Jiang Yuan's turn to be incredulous. He looked Zhou Qian'an up and down and asked in confusion, "Are you in such a hurry? He is just 22 years old, and he looks handsome. It shouldn't be difficult for him to find a wife."

Zhou Qian'an's face turned dark, and it was obvious that he didn't like this topic.

Lu Chuan laughed and said, "You don't know that when people in the capital marry, they not only look at the children, but also the family background, the connections behind them, etc.

Although Lord Zhou held a high position in the army, he had a strong temper and had average relationships with the civil officials, who were unwilling to marry into the families of military generals.

Mrs. Zhou was worried that she would be wronged if she chose a person from a poor family, so she was anxious and didn’t know how many portraits she took home.

Zhou Qian frowned, "Alright, alright, your mother is quite open-minded. Why doesn't my mother listen to your mother's advice? It's so annoying. I have to hide away this time to have a few days of peace and quiet."

"Okay, Brother Zhou, come out and get some quiet time. There's no place quieter than Huangjue Temple. It's just that the food is too vegetarian. I can't stand it.

If you need anything, just send someone to tell me. If you need anything, you can also tell me. I have nothing to do anyway. " Jiang Yuan said, and stood up to say goodbye.

She is now beginning to be interested in Xie Yunxiao's affairs. Based on his personality, he should have come from a good family, which is why he has such a simple and optimistic personality.

But it doesn't seem to be the case. Lord Xie doesn't like him? Why can't he inherit the title and rely on himself to gain a foothold in the army? Now he is also a young and promising general.

Such a promising son should be loved and valued very much.

After leaving the yard, Jiang Yuan went to find Qu Ying.

Qu Ying was daydreaming with a book in her hands, and didn't even notice Jiang Yuan coming in.

He walked behind her and snatched the book from her hand, which scared Qu Ying. "You scared me to death. Why didn't you make any sound?"

I took a look at the book in her hand. It was a local chronicle.

"It's not that I'm silent, it's that you're in a daze. What's wrong? What are you thinking about that makes you so engrossed?" As he said this, he casually flipped through the local chronicles.

"I was thinking about my father and sister. So many things happened when Xie Yunxiao went to fight bandits. We don't know what the situation is like on the battlefield. I haven't received a letter from my sister for two months. I'm a little worried." Qu Ying looked depressed and listless, lying on the table.
