Chapter 391 Returning to the Palace for Treatment
Chapter 391 Returning to the Palace for Treatment
Dong Wei was about to run into the cave when Jun Yuyang stopped him.
"Dong Wei, go back immediately and find my mother in the palace, and ask her to prepare to treat Rui Ze.
I will rush back with Rui Ze."
Dong Wei bowed to Jun Yuyang without any hesitation and said, "I'll have to trouble Your Highness the Crown Prince to serve my prince."
Jun Yuyang nodded, and Dong Wei turned around and used his Qinggong skills to leave.
Jun Yuyang didn't say much to Jun Yuxue. He turned around and walked into the cave, carrying Bai Ruize on his back and left.
The Marquis's wife waited in the Grand Tutor's Mansion for a whole night, but no one came back, so she ran to the palace the next day to inquire for news.
Upon learning that the thief had been caught, Bai Ruize jumped off the cliff holding Jun Yuxue.
The guards searched the foot of the mountain for an entire night but found neither the person alive nor the body.
He closed his eyes and fainted.
When she woke up, she was already in the Marquis's Mansion, and Marquis Jingyang was guarding her bedside.
"Ze'er, is there any news about Ze'er?" She asked anxiously, grabbing Jingyang Hou's sleeve.
Marquis Jingyang did not say anything, but just shook his head with a tired look on his face.
"Wuwuwu..., it's all my fault, it's all my fault..."
"Ma'am, this is none of your business."
"It's my fault. I didn't take it upon myself to hold a lotus viewing banquet for Ze'er. The princess won't go to the White Horse Temple until I send her an invitation.
If we hadn't gone to the White Horse Temple, we wouldn't have fallen into the trap of the thieves, and Ze'er wouldn't have run to save people."
Marquis Jingyang hugged her in his arms and patted her on the back, "Alright, alright, Ze'er and the princess are blessed by fate, nothing will happen to them.
You take a good rest, I will go to the palace to wait for news."
After the marquis's wife lay down with tears in her eyes, Marquis Jingyang rode his horse to the palace.
In the palace, Zuo Zixuan and the eldest princess did not sleep all night, their eyes were swollen from crying. Jun Yisheng's lips were also blistered with anxiety, and his blood pressure was soaring.
At sunset, Dong Wei finally arrived at the palace and said that the person had been found, and asked the Queen to prepare to treat Bai Ruize.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that the person was not dead.
When the marquis's wife heard the news, she didn't care about her makeup at all and hurried to the palace in a carriage.
It was not until nightfall that the prince's carriage rushed back to the palace.
Jun Yuyang carried the unconscious Bai Ruize off the carriage. When the marquis' wife saw her son's pale face, she howled like a ghost and was about to pounce on him.
He was hugged tightly by Marquis Jingyang.
"Madam, calm down. Don't delay the Queen from treating Ze'er."
Jun Yuxue also got off the carriage.
Although she was not injured, her complexion did not look good.
"Oh my, Xue'er, you scared your aunt to death.
Let auntie check if you are injured."
The eldest princess rushed over crying.
Jun Yuxue held the princess's hand and comforted her:
"Aunt, I didn't..."
"Princess, princess..."
"Xue'er, Xue'er..."
"Send the imperial physician..."
Before Jun Yuxue could finish her words, she fell backwards.
The palace was suddenly in chaos, and even the empress dowager, who had been kept in the dark, was alarmed.
When the Queen Mother heard that Jun Yuxue had been kidnapped by thieves and was just found, she closed her eyes and fainted.
It was already chaotic enough, and now it's even more chaotic.
Jun Yisheng sat beside Jun Yuxue's bed, and the imperial physician responded respectfully.
"Your Majesty, the princess was just frightened and had a high fever. She hadn't eaten anything and her body couldn't support her, so she fainted.
Just take two doses of medicine and take good care of yourself for a few days and you will be cured."
Jun Yisheng nodded and said, "Go get the medicine."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Jun Yisheng looked at the pale little girl on the bed, and his heart felt as if it was cut by a knife, and he felt so heartbroken.
He wanted to take those damn remnants of the Tianhe royal family to Tianhe, skin them alive, and hang them on the city wall to dry.
He thought so and did so. He did not even try the criminal, but sent an army to take the captured criminal to Tianhe overnight.
Along the way, there were no unexpected incidents such as prisoner van hijacking, and in less than two months, the prisoners were successfully sent to Tianhe.
In front of the people of Tianhe, they pulled out the tendons and skinned the man, then tied his body to the city gate and left it to dry to dry, as a warning to others.
Daman’s attitude is very clear and tough.
No matter whether there are any remnants of the Tianhe royal family, as long as they dare to come, they will suffer the same fate as these villains.
When the Great Man conquered cities and territories, it did not harm the people. Moreover, under the governance of the Great Man, the people lived and worked in peace and had no worries about food and clothing.
Therefore, the people did not hate the Daman, but were full of gratitude to them.
On the contrary, there is no need to sympathize with these remnants of the former royal family.
Not only did they have no sympathy, but when they saw the corpse, they would throw a few rotten vegetable leaves on it and spit on it.
When Bai Ruize was sent back to the palace, he was indeed only breathing his last breath.
If it were a doctor from that era, he would probably just notify the family to prepare for the funeral.
Thanks to Zuo Zixuan, who combined Chinese and Western medicine, he was able to pull the man back from the brink of death.
Because he was covered with knife wounds and could not move, and he needed intravenous drips and dressing changes every day, he stayed in the palace.
The marquis's wife also stayed to take care of him.
He lay there for a full week before slowly waking up.
The first thing he said when he woke up was, "How is the princess?"
The marquis' wife twisted his arm in frustration.
"I'm almost dead, and I still have the energy to care about others."
"Isn't he still alive?" Bai Ruize retorted weakly.
Seeing that he still had the energy to talk back to her, the Marquis's wife thought that the dangerous period had passed and all he needed to do was rest well.
“There’s nothing wrong with the princess.
On the day she came back, she fainted due to her weak body. She was unconscious for three days before she woke up. The emperor and empress would not let her get out of bed, so she is still in bed recovering.
"What? She fainted?" Bai Ruize supported his body with his arms and struggled to get up.
The Marquis' wife was frightened to death, "Ancestor, you just woke up, what are you doing?"
"The princess is sick, I want to go see her..."
"Oh my ancestor, can't you just take care of yourself first?"
"I have to go see her, otherwise I will be worried."
"Ruize, just lie down. Xue'er is fine. My mother and aunt are watching over her."
Mrs. Hou was extremely anxious when Jun Yuyang's voice suddenly came from the door.
"See His Highness the Crown Prince."
"See..."
"Hey, lie down quietly. There are no outsiders here. There is no need to be so formal with each other."
Bai Ruize wanted to get out of bed to greet him, but Jun Yuyang stopped him.
Jun Yuyang helped the man lie down and tucked the quilt for him.
"I treat you as a brother, but you want to be my brother-in-law."
When Bai Ruize heard Jun Yuyang's words, he nervously prepared to stand up and admit his mistake.
"Alright, alright, don't be nervous. My father, the emperor, and my mother all know about you and Xue'er."
Bai Ruize blushed and pursed his lips, "Your Highness, I have admired the princess for many years, and I hope you will grant my wish."
"It's useless for us to help, Xue'er has to give the nod herself.
You know the rules of my family.
My family supports children's free love, no arranged marriages, and no blind marriages.
As long as she is willing, we will not stop her even if she is just a commoner."
Bai Ruize grinned and nodded, "I will definitely make the princess willingly marry me."
"Now you should take good care of your injuries, and we can talk about other things later." Jun Yuyang patted Bai Ruize's arm.
After Jun Yuyang left, Madam Hou looked at Bai Ruize with a puzzled look and asked:
"Are you and the princess confirmed?"
Bai Ruize grinned, revealing his big white teeth, "I'm not sure if there is any, and the princess didn't give me a clear answer.
But no matter what, she is my lifelong love."
Madam Hou frowned, "Son..."
"Mom, stop it, I don't want to hear you say that anymore.
From now on, I will live my life by myself, and whether it is sweet or bitter is my own business.
If you can't stand it, I will build my own house and live alone with her."
“Hey, you kid.
Have you forgotten your mother before you even got married?
A while ago, you said you supported my divorce and wanted to live with me, but you changed your mind after just a few days?"
Bai Ruize raised his eyebrows and said jokingly:
“Based on my observations during this period, you and my father cannot be separated.
My father is clinging to you like a dog-skin plaster. Which man who is interested in you can stand it?
You can't just spend your whole life with him like this, right?
Since you can't leave, just go back and live a good life.
However, I will always stand by your side. If my father dares to bully you, I will never forgive him.
Even though he is my biological father."
Madam Hou's eyes were red as she gently patted Bai Ruize's arm, "That's more like it."
Marquis Jingyang, who had been standing at the door and listening in the corner for a long time, was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
For more than 20 years, I have actually raised an ungrateful person.
However, he can finally bring his wife home to kiss and hug her. He has been alone in the empty house for almost a month.
On the third day after Bai Ruize woke up, he could no longer lie in bed and even staggered when walking, so he insisted that Dong Wei support him to go see Jun Yuxue.
Jun Yuxue was able to get out of bed now. When Bai Ruize came over, she was lying on a lounge chair in the yard basking in the sun.
Bizhu sat beside her, fanning her with a palm-leaf fan from time to time.
Bai Ruize walked over and took the palm-leaf fan from Bizhu's hand.
Bizhu was startled by the sudden big hand. Before she could say anything, Bai Ruize grabbed her shoulder.
He put his index finger to his lips and made a silencing gesture to Bizhu, signaling her to move aside.
Bizhu already knew about what happened between Jun Yuxue and Bai Ruize. She tactfully gave up her seat and stood aside to watch.
Bai Ruize didn't let her back out, and she had no plans to leave.
Both of them knew very well that if one of them was unmarried and the other was unmarried, being alone together would be bad for the girl's reputation.
Bai Ruize sat on the edge of the recliner, looking at Jun Yuxue's delicate little face, with a smile on his lips, fanning himself with a palm-leaf fan. Dong Wei, who was standing next to him, was so jealous of him when he saw his infatuated look.
But he just couldn't help but watch it.
Jun Yuxue, who was sitting on the recliner, wrinkled her nose and sniffed, "Bizhu, are you hurt? Why do you smell so strongly of medicine?"
