Tao Qiming walked out of the dark, looked around vigilantly, and relaxed only after making sure it was safe. Although he felt uneasy, this was Ye Yunzi's request, so he had to do it.

Tao Qiming approached the woman and checked her pulse while Ye Yunzi waited quietly.

After a moment, Tao Qiming frowned, "This young lady is weak, it seems that she has suffered a heavy hemorrhage and has not yet recovered."

"She had a miscarriage." Ye Yunzi answered calmly.

Tao Qiming looked at her in surprise, "How did you know that? Are you also proficient in medicine?"

Ye Yunzi smiled slightly, "I don't know medicine, but I know her."

"What happened today must not be leaked. It is of great importance." Ye Yunzi warned seriously.

Tao Qiming nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, Miss Ye. What should we do with this young lady?"

"Please give me the antidote, and I'll take care of the rest."

Tao Qiming handed her a small bag and left.

Ye Yunzi looked down at Ye Ziru who was still unconscious and stroked her cheek gently. "Why did you join forces with the Fourth Prince?"

Ye Ziru lay quietly, unaware that her identity had been discovered. Even though she had changed her appearance, she thought no one would recognize her, but she didn't expect that the person in front of her would see through her at a glance.

Afterwards, Ye Yunzi found the maid and told her that Miss Rong had suddenly fainted while taking a walk. The maid immediately became nervous and hurried to take the girl back.

If the emperor knew that something happened to Miss Rong, he would definitely not let them go easily.

When Ye Ziru was helped into the tent, Ye Yunzi quietly took out a small package from her sleeve and gently opened it. As the powder in the paper package drifted away with the wind, a faint fragrance filled the air.

Ye Ziru opened her eyes dazedly, not understanding the situation for a moment. "Miss Rong!" The palace maid was overjoyed to see her wake up, "You finally woke up!"

"I..." Ye Ziru whispered, and suddenly remembered something, "Ye Yunzi!"

She caught a glimpse of Ye Yunzi's figure, and after saying a few words, she fell asleep again. "Where is this? Where is the woman just now?"

The maid explained: "Miss Rong, you were weak and fainted after being caught in a cold wind. A kind lady found you and asked us to bring you back."

"Where's that lady?"

"She's gone."

The sacrificial ceremony was over and everyone began to prepare to return. To Ye Yunzi, these seven short days seemed like a long time. Many things were beyond her expectations. After returning to the capital, the court might face another storm.

During these few days, Su Huan still has not woken up and remains in a coma.

"Finally, we can go back to Beijing." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Spending the night in the wild always makes people nervous. Next, everyone carefully lifted Su Huan onto the carriage. Aliang wanted to take care of him together, but Ye Yunzi stopped her, "Let me take care of this journey."

Aliang's arm was seriously injured and he had difficulty moving. Forcing himself to take care of others would only increase the burden. She looked at Ye Yunzi, nodded, and did not insist.

Ye Yunzi got on the carriage, which was spacious and comfortable. Su Huan lay on the soft cushion, his eyes closed, his face as pale as paper. She took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat off his forehead.

The carriage started slowly and the curtain was lifted. The mountains in the distance were covered in silver and the cold wind was blowing on the face. The scenery was amazing.

"Winter is coming." Ye Yunzi whispered to herself.

Su Huan's eyelashes next to him trembled slightly.

The convoy finally arrived in the capital, and the city gates were wide open to welcome everyone back. They did not return to the Su Mansion until the sun set.

After the long journey, Ye Yunzi looked a little exhausted and the wound on her shoulder was aching slightly, but she could still endure it.

"We're going home..." she said softly.

Just as she was about to get off the car, a cold hand held hers. Ye Yunzi was stunned, turned her head and saw Su Huan opened his eyes, his deep purple eyes drooping slightly weakly.

His eyes fell on the two men's hands, tightly clasped together.

As soon as Su Huan's name was called, she came back to her senses from her brief surprise. With her hands trembling slightly, she held his hand tightly, "You finally woke up."

"The young master has woken up!"

"That's great! The young master finally woke up..."

The servants were all delighted, and Su Rong'an was so excited that he personally helped him out of bed, and the heavy stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

Aliang was standing not far away, and he showed a rare gentle smile when he saw this. Leng Xue followed closely behind him, staring at Aliang non-stop.

Noticing Leng Xue's gaze, Aliang felt a little uncomfortable: "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Leng Xue withdrew her gaze indifferently, but a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

The Su family welcomed Su Huan back. Su Rong'an and Ye Yunzi decided to conceal the truth about what happened in the hunting grounds, saying that he was injured accidentally while chasing prey. After hearing the news, Su was very nervous, "I was really scared to death. Look at how pale you are. Yunzi, are you injured too?"

"Don't worry, mother. I'm fine." Ye Yunzi comforted her, gently holding her mother's hand.

To celebrate their safe return, the Su family prepared a table full of delicious nourishing dishes. The family sat around the table, laughing constantly, and the atmosphere was very warm.

But in the Shen Mansion, it was a completely different scene, appearing particularly deserted.

"Feng'er, eat more." Mrs. Shen gently picked up some food for her son and placed a bowl of deer antler soup in front of him.

"Thank you, mother." Shen Feng smiled, picked up the spoon and took a sip. Suddenly he started coughing violently and the spoon in his hand accidentally fell to the ground.

"Feng'er! What's wrong with you?" Mrs. Shen hurried forward to comfort him, and only breathed a sigh of relief after Shen Feng calmed down.

"It's okay, mother, this is an old problem." Shen Feng said softly, wiping the marks from the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief. Although he knew that the disease was difficult to cure, he had learned to face it calmly over the years.

At this time, a servant announced that the second young master had returned. Mrs. Shen didn't seem to care, and her attention was all on Shen Feng.

Shen Siyan walked into the house, accustomed to his mother's attitude, and said calmly: "Mother, big brother, I'm back."

Seeing his brother coming back, Shen Feng showed a warm smile: "Come and sit down, you must have had a hard time on the road."

Mrs. Shen glanced at Shen Siyan but didn't say much. The table was full of delicious food, but there was no bowl and chopsticks prepared for Shen Siyan.

The alert servant immediately responded: "Second Young Master, please wait a moment. I will add a set of bowls and chopsticks for you right away."

"Brother, how was the hunting competition this time? Did you get anything?" Shen Feng asked curiously, his eyes full of longing for a distant life. Due to physical reasons, he never had the opportunity to go to the hunting grounds to experience the excitement and freedom.

Shen Siyan returned from hunting and brought back a few musk deer and a white fox. He wanted to use the soft fur of the white fox to make a warm collar for his elder brother, because his elder brother was weak and always felt cold in winter. When the collar was ready, he would personally deliver it to his elder brother's room.

"You are so thoughtful." Shen Feng said gratefully.
