At the same time, it also allowed Zuo Li to subtly reveal his relationship with Rong Sheng. There was no need to publicize it widely; just letting some people know would suffice. Then, word would spread, and soon, the news of his relationship with Rong Sheng would be out in the air.

By then, even if Rong Dong'an and the others wanted to back out, it would be too late.

After everything was arranged, Rong Sheng wanted to go home to take a look, but it had been snowing in the north without stopping. The people were also clearing the roads, but it took a lot of time to go back and forth. In that time, they could have treated many patients!

Rong Sheng hesitated for a moment, then wrote a farewell letter to Rong Dong'an and the others, asking Zuo Li to find a way to send it to their families.

After getting ready, Rong Sheng, Gu Beiyi, and their disciples boarded a sleigh and left Wenhong County.

The Valley Master was originally supposed to be left here, but he refused to stay and insisted on leaving with Rong Sheng. "I haven't mastered my medical skills yet. I need to learn properly from my master! Your Highness, if I learn them, I can help my master with many things, and then you and your master can enjoy your life together!"

Gu Beiyi wouldn't have agreed based on the first part of what he heard, but the last part made him immediately agree to bring the Valley Master along.

Indeed, with the Valley Master around, Rong Sheng wouldn't have to work so hard! Moreover, most of those who followed him were disciples of the Divine Doctor Valley. Rong Sheng is now the Valley Master of the Divine Doctor Valley, but that doesn't mean all the disciples have accepted Rong Sheng as the new Valley Master and are willing to obey all of the new Valley Master's orders.

As soon as Rong Sheng left, the county magistrate sent a letter to the Rong family. Rong Sheng had instructed him that he must let the Rong family know where Rong Sheng had gone, after all, he had heard Rong Dong'an and the others complain that they disliked Gu Sanniu! Because Gu Sanniu was after their precious daughter.

However, because he wanted to keep it a secret, he never told them that Gu Sanniu was Gu Beiyi, the Prince Yi!

If it weren't for the snow disaster that kept him away, the magistrate would definitely have gone to Anning Village in person to explain things to them. After all, the prince had revealed his identity, and all the people in Wenhong County already knew that he was Gu Sanniu from Zhonggui Village, and that the real Gu Sanniu was dead.

He returned in place of Gu Sanniu to take revenge on the Gu family, eradicating Shanggui Village and the Miao bandit stronghold. However, as he spent time with Rong Sheng, he fell in love with her and wanted to be with her, making her the esteemed Princess Yi!

However, Rong Dong'an and the others did not know that they deeply disliked Prince Yi. Even if they knew Prince Yi's identity, they dared not speak out against it. They probably disliked Prince Yi even more, but only secretly, and dared not bring it out in the open. Therefore, the magistrate felt it was necessary to explain things to them.

I can't leave, there's nothing I can do! I'm willing but unable!

When Rong Dong'an and the others received Rong Sheng's letter, Rong Sheng had already left the county town. When they learned that Rong Sheng had left so quickly, their faces turned extremely ugly, and their eyes burned with intense fire. If Gu Beiyi were in front of them, the fire in their eyes would surely burn Gu Beiyi to death.

"So what if he's Prince Yi? Does that give him the right to forcibly abduct women?" Rong Dong'an gritted his teeth and scoffed!

Madam Xu looked distressed, her eyes brimming with tears: "Why didn't Shengbao come back and tell us? Would we have refused her? Prince Yi is of noble status, and we can't afford to offend him. But she's going to treat other people in the north. We're not senile; how could we disagree with her going? Her leaving without saying goodbye is really too heartbreaking for me!"

"What a waste of a beautiful flower!" Ronghua muttered, then, thinking of Gu Beiyi's identity, she became very irritated. "Father, Mother, Shengbao has already left with Prince Yi. What should we do? Should we chase after them?"

"Would it be useful to chase after them?" Rong Dong'an said helplessly and resentfully.

Seeing his brothers and parents looking distressed, Rong Yu said, "Father, Mother, brothers, don't be sad. It's snow disaster time now, Prince Yi won't do anything to Sheng Bao. Besides, Sheng Bao is a person with her own mind. She has always known that Father and Mother don't like Prince Yi, otherwise she would have been with Prince Yi long ago, why would she stay in the county to treat the sick and save people? So I think you don't need to worry about this matter!"

"Besides, worrying is useless. Who is Prince Yi? He's the Emperor's brother! Do you think we commoners are his match? He wants Shengbao, and we can't stop him! So instead of hating Prince Yi here, we should think of a way to work hard and one day make Prince Yi afraid so that he won't dare to treat Shengbao badly!" Rong Yu said.

Rong Dong'an: "Fourth brother, your idea is good, but he is Prince Yi. How can he be so easily threatened? You might be nipped in the bud before you even begin!"

Rong Yu understood this reasoning: "But it's better than doing nothing and just watching Sheng Bao be taken away by Prince Yi, right? If one day in the future Prince Yi doesn't like Sheng Bao anymore and abandons her, and Sheng Bao doesn't have a powerful maternal family to support and protect her, what kind of life do you think Sheng Bao will lead then?"

"this……"

“Father, what Fourth Brother said makes a lot of sense!” Rong Hua agreed.

Su Wenlan frowned: "Rong Yu, your idea is indeed very good, but you must know that what the royal family fears most is a powerful maternal clan! Throughout history, whether it is the maternal clan of a concubine or a prince, when their strength challenges the imperial power, the emperor, or other princes and dukes, their end will not be good!"

Hearing Su Wenlan's words, everyone fell silent. Rong Yu, seeing the atmosphere suddenly turn tense, curled his lips into a smile. "Father, Mother, brothers, and sisters-in-law, you've misunderstood. We can be Sheng Bao's support, ensuring he won't be bullied! But we won't become relatives challenging the imperial power! We're not targeting anyone, only Prince Yi! We'll make him uncomfortable if we can, but we won't provoke Prince Yi by doing things we shouldn't or can't do!"

“For example?” Rong Dong stared intently at Rong Yu.

Rong Yu: "For example, when we eat privately, we won't prepare lavish meals for Prince Yi! We'll let him do what he can for our parents! If our parents are working, he can help them in the fields! If he treats Sheng Bao badly, we brothers will take him for a walk in the woods! Don't worry, we brothers will be careful and won't hurt him! We'll just tell him not to bully Sheng Bao, that Sheng Bao has parents who love him and brothers who will protect him!"

That's good!

"As for other aspects, my elder brother is farming, and in the future he will definitely contract or buy more land to build greenhouses. Then the grain industry in the north will fall into my elder brother's hands! It is taken from the people and used for the people. Prince Yi will definitely take more grain from my elder brother to fill the national treasury or for the army or for the people! But at that time, my elder brother can say something in a veiled way, but only in private. On the surface, he still has to give Prince Yi face!"
