Chapter 92 Did you stay in the East Palace last night?

"Brother Yanzhou, are you awake?" Chu Ruyan saw Pei Yanzhou open his eyes and hurried over to hold his hand.

"Do you know how long you were unconscious? I was so worried."

At this moment, Princess Ronghe and General Pei also walked in. "Zhou'er, you finally woke up. You really scared me to death."

Princess Ronghe took Chu Ruyan's hand and said to Pei Yanzhou seriously:

"Ruyan is a good child. You were able to wake up from the plague this time thanks to her donation of the Purple Cloud Grass to the Imperial Hospital."

"It was this Purple Cloud Grass that saved your life. And those soldiers in your Black Armor Camp who were sick with the plague were able to recover because of Yan'er."

She roughly told Pei Yanzhou what had happened in the past few days, and deliberately omitted Shen Yuning.

Zhou'er is getting married in a few days, and we can't let him get confused anymore.

"Ruyan, thank you for your hard work!" Pei Yanzhou withdrew his hand and rarely spoke in a gentler tone to Chu Ruyan.

But he soon fell into pain: In this way, he owed this woman another life?

Does this mean that I can only marry her on the eighth day of the New Year?

Pei Yanzhou was just thinking about how to break off the engagement when he heard Princess Ronghe say with a smile, "Zhou'er, you were able to escape death this time because of Yan'er. You must remember this kindness in your heart!"

"Once Yan'er comes home, you must take good care of her and not let her down!"

Chu Ruyan deliberately lowered her head, looking shy: "Thank you, Princess!"

"This child will enter the Pei family in three days, and she is still calling me princess?" Rong He said with a smile on his face.

Chu Ruyan blushed and timidly called out, "Mom."

Pei Yanzhou lay weakly on the bed, looking at this warm scene, which was dazzling.

Everyone is hoping that he will marry Chu Ruyan, but only he himself knows how much he dislikes her.

——

After Princess Ronghe and General Pei left, Hong Gu walked in and saluted Pei Yanzhou: "General Pei, you must treat our young lady well in the future."

"You've been ill these past few days. Our young lady has lost her appetite and her eyes are almost red from crying. If it weren't for her Purple Cloud Grass, even the Great Luo Immortal couldn't save you."

Chu Ruyan winked at Hong Gu, and she immediately understood:

"General, there are some things I don't want to say, but I have to say them. Your ex-fiancée, Shen Yuning, is really a piece of shit. These past few days, you were in doubt about whether you were alive or dead, but she was only concerned with talking about love."

"She sneaked into the Eastern Palace last night and didn't come out until dark today. For a whole day and night, she and the Crown Prince were deeply affectionate, and the Crown Prince even promised her the title of Crown Princess..."

"What did you say?"

Pei Yanzhou didn't listen carefully at first, but when he heard the three words "Chen Yuning", he immediately perked up.

His head buzzed, and he immediately jumped out of bed. "You said Ning'er stayed in the East Palace last night?"

"Exactly! Absolutely true!"

Seeing Pei Yanzhou's grim expression, Hong Gu felt a little frightened. "I have a relative working in the Eastern Palace. I know what happened yesterday. Doctor Shen and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince... have consummated their marriage!"

“Bold!”

With a "whoosh", the sword was unsheathed.

Pei Yanzhou drew his sword from beside the bed and pointed it at Hong Gu's throat. "Do you know that insulting or fabricating stories about imperial officials is a capital crime?"

Ning'er can't be with her cousin, she's not that kind of person.

Although she has a passionate personality, she is also traditional and conservative. Otherwise, how come they haven't even had any intimate behavior after being engaged to him for three years?

Pei Yanzhou didn't believe it at all.

Hong Gu knelt down with a plop, gritting her teeth and saying, "General, if I tell a lie, I will immediately hit my head against the pillar and commit suicide!"

Chu Ruyan also stepped forward to help, "Brother Yanzhou, Hong Gu is my wet nurse, she can't be lying. If you don't believe it, you can go to the Imperial Hospital and ask Shen Yuning!"

Hong Gu nodded like pounding garlic, "Yes, you only need to lift up Shen Yuning's sleeve and take a look, and you will know whether it is true or not!"

"She stayed in the East Palace for a whole day and a whole night yesterday. Many people know about this. Feel free to... verify it!"

After hearing these words, Pei Yanzhou took a step back, obviously panicking.

"Ridiculous! Impossible! If you spread rumors again, I will kill you with one sword!" His sword-holding hand trembled as he shouted sternly.

Chu Ruyan stepped forward, tears streaming down her face. "You'll understand when you go there. Why did you scare my wet nurse?"

They hugged each other and pretended to cry.

As for Pei Yanzhou, he didn't even put on his outer robe and rushed out the door.

The wind was whistling in his ears. Although it was not cold, he felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave. He had never been so frightened.

impossible!

Ning'er has always been in my plans, how could she be with my cousin?

Doesn't my cousin have a hidden illness? How could he possibly touch her?

He whipped the whip to speed up, tears streaming down his face.

Although the wedding is going to take place in three days, as long as the news is false, he is willing to cancel the engagement and pursue Shen Yuning again!

"Ning'er, you may not like me, but you can't be with someone else..."

——

With the sound of horse hooves, Pei Yanzhou soon arrived at the Imperial Hospital.

He was not wearing an outer robe, his eyes were bloodshot, his face was covered with stubble, and there were tears in his eyes.

When the imperial doctors saw Pei Yanzhou's situation, they knew that he must have come to find Shen Yuning to cry bitterly, so they all tactfully withdrew.

Before leaving, he didn't forget to whisper in Shen Yuning's ear: "If there's any conflict, just shout and we'll rush in."

Shen Yuning nodded, reassuring them.

I just finished dealing with the plague and am now exhausted.

"Chen Yuning, I heard from Hong Gu that you stayed in your cousin's East Palace last night for a whole day and a whole night?"

As soon as these words came out, before Shen Yuning could answer, he started crying first: "Ning'er, tell me, is this true or false?"

He was extremely sad and thought: Ning'er, it's okay if you just lie to me.

As long as you lie to me, it means you still have me in your heart.

As for whether it was done or not, I don’t care anymore. I will marry you, Ning’er!

"Pei Yanzhou, you are going to marry Chu Ruyan in three days. Do you think you are qualified to ask me this now?" Shen Yuning rubbed his temples and felt a headache.

"Don't mention that woman, don't mention her name!"

Pei Yanzhou suddenly became excited. When he heard the three words "Chu Ruyan", he felt upset.

He didn't like her, and even hated her a little.

Why did that woman save me back then? Why did she keep pestering me?

Why do you want to induce me to give up Ning'er?

If it weren't for her, Ning'er and I might even have a child.

"Chen Yuning, let me ask you, are you with your cousin?" Pei Yanzhou cried out.

"Pei Yanzhou, I almost died trying to save you and the people. Now you tell me these things, I just find it ridiculous."

What does it have to do with him how far she and Xiao Yihan have come?

"Besides, we've broken off the engagement now. I'm free to do whatever I want. You don't have to worry about me!"

“You’re avoiding the important issues and refusing to face the problem directly. Shen Yuning, are you indirectly admitting it?”

Pei Yanzhou opened his eyes wide and tears fell like rain.

He suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Ana Shen’s sleeve.

"Ning'er, can you just lie to me?"

"As long as you lie to me, I'll let bygones be bygones, and we can start over, okay?"

As he said this, before Ana Shen could react, he relied on his superior force to quickly lift up her sleeves.
