Not long after Wen Xiuzhu and Shu Xiaohan returned, Xie Changshi also woke up. Due to severe frostbite, he was still wrapped in bandages and had difficulty walking.

Upon receiving the news, Gu Yuzhi immediately had Xu Mama lead him toward Xie Changshi's room, wanting to see him.

He was only allowed to get out of bed and move around yesterday by Judge Qin. Since he can't see, he can only carefully walk around the room and familiarize himself with the room's layout.

After being led around the room by Granny Xu a few times, he became familiar with the layout of the room. Now, even when no one is in the room, he can get out of bed and move around without falling.

Strangely enough, after he went blind, Manager Wen and Teacher Shu were also unable to see the outside world through his eyes.

Otherwise, he wouldn't need Xu Mama's company; he could have gone out under the guidance of Manager Wen and Teacher Shu.

However, this was the first time he had gone out since his injury, so he was a little excited and had a smile on his face the whole time.

Although he couldn't see the bright sunshine outside, he could feel the warmth of the sun on his body. He and Granny Xu were talking to each other when they arrived at the door of Chief Secretary Xie's room.

The bandages on his hands had been removed, replaced by a pair of leather gloves, which Granny Xu said were made of red fox fur, bright red and very beautiful.

He couldn't see it, but after thinking about it, he thought it looked really good. Today, even though he was only walking a short distance, he couldn't wait to put it on, with a little bit of a desire to show it off.

"Your Highness!"

As soon as the two arrived at the door, Xie Changshi noticed them and, disregarding his own pain, hurriedly got up to greet them: "Your Highness, you have not yet recovered, it should be your subject who comes to visit you."

He had just woken up when he heard Marshal Huo and the others say that His Highness had gone blind. He immediately wanted to go see him, but Marshal Huo and the others held him back.

The sun is shining brightly today; Your Highness should also go out for a walk.

It doesn't need to be a long distance, but the crisp winter air and the slightly noisy sounds from outside might cheer the young prince up.

Xie Changshi glanced at his body, which was wrapped in bandages, and had no choice but to give up. He would occasionally look towards the door, hoping to catch a glimpse of Gu Yuzhi.

Upon hearing Xie Changshi's voice, Gu Yuzhi's smile widened involuntarily.

He just felt really good that Chief Secretary Xie and Marshal Huo had both survived safely.

Teacher Shu said that those who survive a great calamity are destined for good fortune. He thought that Chief Secretary Xie and Marshal Huo would definitely be able to stay with him for a long time in the future.

He smiled and reached out towards Xie Changshi, successfully taking his hand before letting him lead him to sit down.

Gu Yuzhi then spoke up: "Judge Qin said that I can do some light exercise now, which will help with my recovery."

He stuck out his tongue sheepishly and whispered, "I've been lying here for too long this time, I feel like I'm going to get moldy!"

Looking at Gu Yuzhi's eyes, which appeared particularly prominent due to his extreme weight loss, Xie Changshi couldn't recall the liveliness of those eyes when they were intact. His lips unconsciously turned down, and his eyes also carried a coldness.

He closed his eyes briefly before opening them again: "I asked Imperial Physician Qin, and he said Your Highness's recovery is exceptionally good, which is related to your daily martial arts practice. On the contrary, I'm the one who's holding you back..."

He wanted to praise Gu Yuzhi, but he was afraid that mentioning the events of that day would remind the young prince of the attack and his sacrifice.

He opened his mouth, then sighed silently.

Gu Yuzhi couldn't see it, but he seemed to be more sensitive to the changes in the other person's emotions. He patted Xie Changshi's arm with his gloved hand and said, "Xie Changshi didn't hold us back at all."

He moved forward slightly and said in a low voice, "Let me tell you, Marshal Huo said that you've changed his perception of ordinary civil servants."

He mimicked Shu Xiaohan by giving a thumbs up, then hummed twice and complained in a low voice, "Hmph, I've been practicing martial arts for over a year, and I still haven't managed to change Marshal Huo's opinion of children from the start."

Marshal Huo, who was resting nearby, immediately sat up straight: "Your Highness, I haven't left, I'm still here."

His tone carried a hint of helplessness: "Even if you're going to file a complaint, you should at least do it discreetly."

Not only him, but also Chen Dianyi and Qin Yuanpan were there.

The young prince's words are meant to make him a laughingstock.

As expected, as soon as he finished speaking, Judge Qin and the others burst into laughter, especially Chen Dianyi, who laughed until his stomach hurt. He covered his stomach with both hands and bent over slightly to relieve the discomfort.

Gu Yuzhi exclaimed "Ah!", her small eyebrows raised high, then covered her mouth and chuckled, "Of course I know Marshal Huo is pulling!"

He held his head high, looking very proud: "We martial artists have very sensitive senses."

The moment the words "five features" were uttered, the smiles on the faces of the others in the room vanished, and their eyes turned to Gu Yuzhi with regret.

Especially Marshal Huo.

He felt guilty for bringing up this topic and thought to himself that he should have just pretended to be asleep.

Gu Yuzhi seemed oblivious, his smile still bright: "Especially now that I can't see, my hearing is even more sensitive than before."

He turned and pointed at the spot where Judge Qin and Chen Dianyi were standing, laughing heartily, "I can tell who's who just by the frequency of your breathing."

While he was lying down, he noticed that each person who came to visit him had a different breathing frequency. After observing this a couple of times, he figured it out.

Gu Yuzhi's expression held a hint of smugness: "Hehe, you didn't expect this, did you? Now, even if you don't say anything, I can tell who you are!"

He wrinkled his nose in a mock fierce manner: "Don't even think about talking badly about me behind my back, I can hear everything!"

Xueye imitated Gu Yuzhi, letting out a fierce howl.

The room, which was originally dull, suddenly became much more lively because of the cute appearance of the master and the wolf.

Huo Qiyuan stared blankly at Gu Yuzhi's small figure. Even though his eyes were lifeless at the moment, it couldn't hide the radiance emanating from him.

In that instant, he knew that he had underestimated the young prince; his inner strength was far greater than he had imagined.

Huo Qiyuan first smiled slightly, then his mouth stretched wider and wider until it finally burst out.

The others turned to look over, then back to Gu Yuzhi, and all laughed.

Gu Yuzhi naturally understood that their smiles were well-intentioned, and his expression relaxed as well.

Just like Xie Changshi and the others felt for him, Gu Yuzhi did not want them to always blame him for this robbery and murder.

My mother used to say that no one is perfect. Even my elder brother would be lectured by the censors when he did something wrong, let alone Chief Secretary Xie and the others.

He just wanted to make everyone a little happier. Teacher Shu said that people who smile a lot are usually lucky!
