Jiang Zhaorong was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that because of the Du Yuelan incident, he beat the doctor she brought to death and threw him out, and also dismissed the court physician.

Jiang Zhaorong saw that her face was pale, the corners of her eyes were red, her body was wrapped in clothes, and her waist was only wide enough to be held in one hand. She looked even more pitiful, and the anger in his heart was instantly extinguished as if by water.

"Just send someone to call a doctor. Since you're not feeling well, why are you running out of the house?"

He said this in a gentle voice of reproach. Taohong knew that he was bowing to her again, so she took the opportunity to pass the buck: "Master, you are right. I will remember this."

Seeing her so considerate, Jiang Zhaorong coughed lightly and said, "I was inconsiderate. You just gave birth and you need someone to take care of you. I will send someone today and ask a doctor to wait at the mansion."

Taohong chuckled and replied a few words. Jiang Zhaorong looked at her with eyes full of pity. He reached out and patted her hand, and asked casually, "Which clinic did you go to?"

When asking the question, he didn't look at Taohong, but at the maid who accompanied Taohong.

Taohong's hands tightly grasped the corner of her clothes.

The maid looked at Taohong hesitantly. After hearing Jiang Zhaorong's impatient "hmm," she quickly said, "Yes, it's Miss Jiang's clinic."

The people kneeling below didn't dare to breathe.

Taohong's body was also stiff, and she secretly looked up at Jiang Zhaorong's expression.

However, to her surprise, Jiang Zhaorong didn't seem particularly angry. He simply said, "It's Zhiyu's clinic. She's a highly skilled doctor. I feel relieved to have her around. What did she say?"

This sentence is directed to Taohong.

Taohong licked her dry lips, unsure of his thoughts, and said softly, "It's nothing serious. I've just been too worried these past few days, and the weather has changed, so I caught a cold."

Jiang Zhaorong nodded, waved his hand to signal the kneeling person to go down, and said a few words of comfort to Taohong.

Seeing that he was in a good mood, Tao Hong said cautiously, "Master, I still want to move back to my original courtyard." She looked at Jiang Zhaorong's eyes and said softly, "Although Menghua Garden is nice, it is still far away from you. I want to be closer to you."

Of course, this is false. Jiang Zhaorong is now moody and he might have an outburst like before at any time. Living in Menghuayuan can only make Jiang Zhaorong think of Xu Youran as before.

Although this house is nice, she is not able to enjoy it now.

Jiang Zhaorong looked at her silently for a long while without saying anything. After a moment, he said, "It's good that you have this intention. If you want to move, then go ahead."

Both issues have been resolved, and Taohong seemed to let out the breath that had been stuck in her heart, and there was finally a hint of smile in her eyes.

The two of them spent some time together. Jiang Zhaorong then stood up and went to the study to take care of some official business. Once inside, he instructed, "Keep a closer eye on her. From now on, anything she sends over must be strictly inspected."

The servant murmured yes.

Jiang Zhaorong sat in front of a desk filled with portraits of women, with their identities marked next to them.

He couldn't be so passive anymore, Jiang Zhaorong thought. In a short period of time, he would not be able to get any clues about the treasure from Song Shiwei. Now he had to find a way to stabilize his position.

…

In the palace, Song Shiwei had just helped the empress dowager close her eyes when she saw Qiu Yi pulling Shuang Ning out.

Seeing her, Qiu Yi lowered his voice and called out, "Come quickly."

Song Shiwei followed her out of the hall, confused.

As Song Shiwei's status in the Queen Mother's heart improved, and Song Shiwei deliberately tried to please her, Qiu Yi and Shuang Ning's attitude towards her also changed greatly.

"Where are you going?"

After leaving the palace, Song Shiwei saw that there were many palace maids and eunuchs walking, and their directions were surprisingly the same.

"Jiang Zhiyu, you all know this, right?" Qiu Yi said with a smile. "Didn't someone from Nan Gu come? It's said that even if you're infected with their Gu, you won't feel anything. Only when they activate the Gu worm will you realize you've been infected."

"So, she's here today to teach the imperial doctors how to avoid it. We can go and listen."

Although the emperor did not place the Nan Gu delegation in the palace due to their special nature, it is better to be safe than sorry. Moreover, how could they miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to slack off?

As early as when Qiu Yi mentioned Jiang Zhiyu's name, Song Shiwei's smile froze. After hearing what she said, he gritted his teeth and twisted the corner of his clothes several times.

It's her again!

Why did she always come to upset her when she was happiest? !

Ever since the hunting ground, I seemed to be controlled by her. No matter what I do, nothing goes well!

Her expression was truly ferocious. Qiu Yi stared at her in a daze, "Miss Song, are you okay?"

Song Shiwei suppressed the surging emotions in his heart and chuckled, "It's okay, I was just distracted just now. Let's go."

Shuang Ning looked at her with an inquiring gaze, and Song Shiwei let her look at her.

When they arrived at the Imperial Hospital, they found it completely surrounded. Song Shiwei heard a voice that made him grit his teeth in hatred, saying loudly, "The most feared thing for poisonous insects is fire, and secondly..."

Song Shiwei could no longer hear what was said afterwards. She seemed to be listening attentively, but in fact her eyes were already bloodshot. She stared at Jiang Zhiyu through the gaps in the crowd, and her hands under her sleeves clenched into fists. Even though she felt pain, she did not let go.

As Jiang Zhiyu was speaking, she felt a surge of murderous intent, and she immediately saw Song Shiwei in the crowd.

[Given the heroine's abilities, she must be quite popular now. I wonder if the Queen Mother has asked her to make aphrodisiac incense.]

Jiang Zhiyu glanced at her and then looked away.

Song Shiwei was caught off guard and looked into her eyes. Her eyes were flustered for a moment, and then she saw Jiang Zhiyu looking away.

Song Shiwei: "..."

A strange feeling surged in his heart, Song Shi blinked slightly and let go of his hand.

After she has dealt with the Queen Mother and accomplished her mission, even if Jiang Zhiyu has martial arts and medical skills, she will still be stepped on by her everywhere, just like when she was a child!

Thinking of his plan, Song Shiwei licked his lips.

There was also the Sixth Prince. Although she had asked several people and they all said that the Sixth Prince was caned by the Emperor because of his marriage proposal, she still felt a sense of disobedience in her heart.

Based on her understanding of Xiao Yanli, he would never be the kind of person who would be blinded by love and do something impulsive.

Unless the marriage is beneficial to Xiao Yanli, he would never rashly ask for it and risk being disliked by the emperor.

He just bribed someone to win back his trust.

After such a thorough analysis, Song Shiwei felt a bit bitter in his heart.

It's not that she didn't have expectations for Xiao Yanli, but that expectation had been completely worn out by repeated disappointments.
