Chapter 21 Lu Qingcheng

Inside the tent.

Chu Anlan grabbed the small bronze mirror that he had picked up from somewhere and sighed, "Ye Chenting said that Qing'er agreed to my proposal because I have a good-looking face. If I were disfigured, she would definitely regret the marriage.

By then, wouldn't that hypocrite Lu Jilian be the one getting the upper hand? Tsk, I'd better ask my mother for some money to support a few hundred thugs for him, otherwise, there's no chance of winning when I try to snatch the bride..."

The guard squatted aside and boiled the medicine: "The prince will not be disfigured."

"If you say you can't do it, then you can't do it?" Chu Anlan put down the small bronze mirror.

How dare the guard speak?

Chu Anlan said angrily: "It's all the fault of those ignorant and shallow-minded people. For a pig, they didn't care about their lives, and they even disfigured me! When have I ever suffered such injustice in my life?

Why didn't you stop me when I was carrying that villain and his piglets to escape?"

The guard explained in a low voice: "If I stop you, I'm afraid that both master and servant will die there today."

Chu Anlan thought about it carefully and it made sense.

Landslides and earthquakes are truly terrifying.

A cup of tea later, he and that unruly man would be buried alive together.

Thinking back on it, I still feel scared.

He patted his chest and picked up the bronze mirror: "Have pity on my face! When I get better, I will definitely catch that cunning man's piglet and roast it!

No... The doctor just told me not to eat anything that would cause inflammation, or my face would get rotten. I'm going to catch his pig, skin it, boil it into glue, and use it to heal my face!"

The guard echoed, "As long as the prince is happy."

Outside the tent.

Ye Wanqing listened for a moment and said to Ye Chenxi: "Let's go back."

"Don't you want to go in and take a look?" Ye Chenxi asked her.

"No."

It is a great blessing that Chu Anlan is alive.

She won the bet.

Whether he was disfigured or not was not important to her at all. Anyway, she wanted to marry him not because of that face.

On the way back, Ye Wanqing's steps were lighter than ever before.

"Girl, wait for me!"

Ye Chenxi almost couldn't keep up.

The palace soldiers worked efficiently and the guards were no less capable.

When we returned to the carriage, the tent had been set up and the fire was lit.

"Yingxiang, Qianxi." Ye Wanqing ordered: "Count the medicines on the carriage, keep some for your own use, and send the rest to my second brother."

Yingxiang and Qianxi immediately agreed: "Got it."

"Get me a box of trauma medicine." She thought for a moment and said, "See if you have any scar removal cream and bring it over as well."

Not long after, the two came back.

Ying Xiang handed over two porcelain jars, one green and one purple: "The green one is trauma medicine, and the purple one is scar removal cream.

Miss, shall we send it to the prince now?"

"I'll go and see him off!" Ye Chenxi took the initiative to say, "An Lan is in a bad mood, I'll go and comfort him so that he doesn't have those wild thoughts."

Seeing that his elder brother was so excited, Ye Wanqing had no choice but to nod and approve: "Go ahead."

Holding the medicine in one hand and an umbrella in the other, Ye Chenxi happily ran to find Chu Anlan.

Ye Wanqing withdrew her gaze.

After washing up, I lay in the warm and soft bed, feeling extremely tired.

These days, she was worried and couldn't sleep or eat well.

Today, she saw the collapse of Yinxu Mountain with her own eyes, and Chu Anlan and the villagers of Yinxu County were still standing alive in front of her, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

An overwhelming sense of sleepiness overwhelmed her.

If you worry for a long time and then relax, you will easily get sick.

In the middle of the night, Ye Wanqing felt hot all over.

Qianxi, who was on night duty, lifted the carriage curtain and shone a light from the night pearl. He saw that his young lady's face was flushed and beads of sweat were oozing from her forehead.

For a moment, people were on their backs.

As Chu Yanrong's only daughter, Ye Wanqing had been raised as a precious treasure since her childhood. By the time she was fifteen, she had never suffered from a cold twice.

During this trip, he developed a high fever. The two doctors changed the prescription several times, but the fever did not subside.

Ye Chenting said solemnly: "Change the medicine again. If Wanqing's symptoms still don't subside, we can only rush to send her back to Jindu."

……

Surrounded by warmth, Ye Wanqing stood alone in a yard.

The walls are high and the tiles are red. The sunlight pours down through the gaps between the branches of the ancient cypress trees, and there are shadows in the pavilion in the courtyard.

Ye Wanqing walked towards the pavilion.

In the pavilion, the girl in red turned around and called out, "Mom."

Ye Wanqing was stunned: "Qingcheng..."

"Mother." Lu Qingcheng's eyes were filled with deep sorrow: "Daughter, I'm here to see you."

Ye Wanqing was extremely sad: "Qingcheng, I am sorry for you. I was unable to help you marry your sweetheart, and I was unable to save you... I am sorry, I am a useless person."

Lu Qingcheng shook her head: "No..."

"You're right." Ye Wanqing said to herself, "I am just a tool for him to have children and a stepping stone for him.

My life has been a complete failure. I am a person whose life has no meaning..."

"That's not true!" Lu Qingcheng looked at her with tears in her eyes: "Mom, you saved the people of Yinxu County and saved thousands of lives. Mom, you are a very brave person. In Qingcheng's heart, mom is the most powerful."

Ye Wanqing shook her head desperately.

"Mom." Lu Qingcheng's voice became softer and softer, and her figure became fainter and fainter: "Qingcheng, it's time to go. Take care of yourself."

Ye Wanqing wanted to grab her, but all he caught was empty air.

"Green orange..."

"Lu Qingcheng!"

Ye Wanqing suddenly opened her eyes from her dream, her eyes were filled with tears, so red that they almost looked like blood.

I was in a daze, with many people surrounding me.

In a trance, she saw a bright red shadow.

Hongying came forward and asked, "Who is Lu Qingcheng?"

Ye Wanqing trembled: "Chu Anlan?"

"You recognize me?" Chu Anlan moved closer in surprise.

Ye Wanqing moved her mouth, tears rolling down her cheeks: "I'm sorry... I hurt you..."

"Ah?" Chu Anlan was confused and turned to ask Ye Chenting: "What is she talking about? Why can't I understand?"

Ye Chenting's eyes were filled with a trace of sleepiness: "Wan Qing's fever has just subsided and her consciousness is confused. Don't take her words to heart."

"Yeah." Chu Anlan turned his head and said, "Second uncle is right."

Ye Chenting was speechless.

I have never seen such a shameless person!
The marriage isn't even completed yet, and you're already changing your name!
Sudden……

Chu Anlan turned his head suddenly: "By the way, who is Lu Qingcheng?"

After the dream, Ye Wanqing started sweating and her high fever subsided.

Yingxiang and Qianxi cleaned her up and changed her into clean bedding and clothes.

Ye Wanqing was sleeping soundly.

The court doctor breathed a sigh of relief: "After two days of fever, the young lady's fever has finally subsided. Otherwise, I really don't know how to explain it when I go back."

"Fortunately, the young lady is in good health and should be able to recover quickly." said another palace doctor.

"Ah."

The court physician has gone to prepare the medicine.

Inside the tent, besides Yingxiang and Qianxi who were standing by quietly, there were Ye Chenting, Ye Chenxi, and Chu Anlan whose half head was wrapped in white cloth.

"Ahem..." Ye Chenting put his hand to his lips and reminded: "Sir, it's getting late. You should go on patrol."

Patrol?

How could Chu Anlan have the mind to patrol?

He frowned and asked, "Who is Lu Qingcheng?"

"Yes, second brother, who is Lu Qingcheng?" Ye Chenxi asked.
