Chapter 62 Drinking Medicine
Ye Wanqing patted the back of her hand to comfort her.
Chu Yanrong asked them: "What happened?"
Chu Xiaoyan glanced at Lu Jilian.
Lu Jilian understood what he meant and said, "Reporting to Her Royal Highness the Princess, the person who pushed the prince into the water has been found out."
Sure enough, Chu Anlan was pushed into the water.
Ye Wanqing pinched her fingers into her palm.
The last assassination and this fall into the water almost cost him his life.
Chu Yanrong glanced at her daughter and asked Lu Jilian, "Who is the other party? Did he tell me why he wanted An Lan's life?"
Lu Jilian pursed his lips and said, "The second son of the Yongchang Marquis's Mansion, Di Xiu, said that he disliked the prince of Dun and wanted to teach him a lesson. So he took advantage of the chaos and secretly tripped the prince."
Don’t like Chu Anlan?
"That's the third floor!" Chu Yanrong said sternly, "Today he didn't like someone, so he kicked him from the third floor into the five-meter-deep moat. Tomorrow he doesn't like someone, will he set fire to that person's entire family?"
Lu Jilian lowered his eyes: "Please calm down, Princess."
Calm down?
Looking at the gate of Prince Dun's mansion, Chu Yanrong rarely showed her dignity: "I will go to the emperor in person later on this matter."
Lu Jilian nodded and said, "Yes."
Looking at the group of teenagers, Chu Yanrong softened her expression and said, "Let's all go back to the Imperial College. I will seek justice for An Lan."
Imperial College?
Ye Chenxi was the first to frown: "Mom, we have asked for leave from the teacher. If we go back to the school, won't it be a waste of leave and time?"
"How can studying be considered a waste of time?" Chu Yanrong scolded lightly.
After saying that, he looked at the other young men who were also listless and said, "You all worked hard to guard Chu Anlan last night. Go home and rest for a day. Chen Xi, you have to go to the Imperial College."
Ye Chenxi opened his eyes wide in shock: "So, I'm the only one going back to the Imperial College?"
Chu Yanrong looked at him kindly and said, "You don't want to go back alone. How about I send someone to find your father and let your father take you back?"
Ye Chenxi almost cried out loud.
Chu Xiaoyan patted his shoulder: "Chenxi, I'll take you to the Imperial College."
"Oh!" Ye Chenxi became even more depressed.
As the carriage went away, Lu Jilian bowed and said, "I still need to go to the palace, so I'll take my leave now."
Chu Yanrong nodded slightly: "Go ahead."
Lu Jilian glanced at Ye Wanqing and said politely, "Princess."
Ye Wanqing was speechless.
She had dreamed of him last night.
Now, the man was standing before her, and she was brought back to that terrible dream.
In the dream, Lu Jilian asked her: Where are you going to escape?
Perhaps the fate between them has not completely disappeared. Although the capital is so big, she always sees him everywhere.
This feeling of being involved made her terrified.
Ye Wanqing bowed perfunctorily in return: "Master Lu, take care."
After watching Lu Jilian leave, Chu Yanrong took Liao Fuyu to visit Prince Dun's wife first. Ye Wanqing brought Yingxiang and a food box to see Chu Anlan.
When Ye Wanqing arrived, there was some noise in the room.
While still outside the door, she heard a voice coming from the inner room: "Don't drink it! This medicine is bitter and smelly, take it out and pour it out!"
The imperial physician advised helplessly: "Sir, good medicine tastes bitter but is good for the disease."
"I'm not sick." Chu Anlan threw a tantrum.
The imperial physician was in a dilemma: "Sir, since you are so uncooperative, I can only give you some drugs to make you sleep for ten days or half a month. By then, you will be forced to drink any medicine you don't want to drink."
"You dare!" Chu Anlan was extremely angry.
The doctor said, "If you don't believe me, you can give it a try. My colleagues and I have dozens of ways to make you fall asleep. The emperor only said he wanted to cure you, but he didn't say how to cure you. Treating you while you're asleep is also a cure."
Chu Anlan was so angry that he kept humming.
Hearing how full of energy he was when arguing with others, Ye Wanqing felt relieved and walked in with the food box. Chu Anlan leaned against the head of the bed and threatened the doctor: "If you dare to knock me out, when I recover, I will definitely climb onto your roof and tear down your beams..."
Suddenly, his voice stopped.
Ye Wanqing stood beside the screen, looking at him softly with a faint smile on her lips.
Chu Anlan suddenly raised his hands to cover his face: "Ah! My head hurts, it hurts..."
After saying that, he immediately lay back on the bed.
The imperial physician's beard trembled slightly: "If you have a headache, take medicine, Your Highness!"
Chu Anlan rested his head on the cushion beside the bed and said in a weak voice, "I am so weak... I can't drink the smelly and bitter medicine..."
The imperial physician really wanted to pick up the medicine bowl, pry open the mouth of this dude in front of him, and force the medicine down his throat along with the bowl!
Just as he was about to get the bowl, a gentle voice came from behind him: "Dr. Chao, you have worked hard. Go down and rest first. I will watch the prince drink his medicine."
Doctor Chao turned around and said, "Princess, you are here?"
Ye Wanqing nodded slightly as a greeting.
The imperial physician seemed to have seen a savior. He grabbed the medicine box and ran out as fast as he could.
The room suddenly became quiet.
Ye Wanqing put the lunch box on the table and looked up at Chu Anlan: "You..."
Chu Anlan interrupted her and looked at her pitifully: "Qing'er, someone wants to harm me."
Ye Wanqing bit her lower lip.
It turned out that he knew it himself.
Ye Wanqing walked to the bed and sat down, looking at his face covered with ointment: "Sir, do you feel better today?"
Chu Anlan hung his head: "I am disfigured, and I may not be able to survive."
In her two lifetimes, Ye Wanqing had never seen Chu Anlan like this.
Also, quite cute.
She couldn't help laughing and picked up the medicine bowl from the cabinet beside the bed: "The prince will not be disfigured, nor will he die. The medicine is getting cold, drink it first."
Chu Anlan didn’t really want to drink.
He tried every means to change the subject: "Mo Yan said that you moved the bronze mirror from my room. Where did you move it to? Jinghong Garden?"
Ye Wanqing paused while stirring the spoon: "Yes..."
"So, you like mirrors?" Chu Anlan said happily, "If you like it, I'll have someone make a big mirror and put it in our new house. When you marry in, you can look at yourself every day."
Ye Wanqing's throat choked when she heard this: "Your Highness, don't bother."
Chu Anlan's eyes were bright, and he said sincerely: "I want to be your husband. It's not troublesome for your husband to do things for you."
Ye Wanqing's heart moved slightly.
Chu Anlan added: "If you have anything you like, just tell me!"
Seeing him so sincere and passionate, Ye Wanqing whispered, "I dreamed of you last night."
"Really?" Chu Anlan asked happily, "What did you dream about me?"
Ye Wanqing stared at him: "I dreamed that you pulled me out of the mud, brought me out of the abyss, and accompanied me to see a grand and brilliant spring scene."
"Am I so powerful?" Chu Anlan was surprised and happy.
"Yes." Ye Wanqing nodded, looking at the boy whose original beauty could not be concealed by the ointment and scars: "Will you always stay with me?"
"Of course!" Chu Anlan nodded vigorously.
Ye Wanqing narrowed her eyes and moved the bowl closer: "Then drink the medicine."
The stinky and bitter smell of medicine kept drilling into my nose.
