Song Xizhi gritted his teeth and immediately stood up from the bed: "No! We can't let him continue to fall into a deep sleep during the day!"
"If this continues for too long, I'm afraid he might never wake up again!"
Upon hearing this, Sanqi hurriedly looked up, her eyes pleading, "Madam, do you have any ideas?"
Song Xizhi held up one finger: "Stab! It has to be stabbed!"
“I used to be too focused on Song Ruoan and his business outside, and I forgot about him. From today onwards, I will give him acupuncture every day during the day, and use the pain to awaken his consciousness!”
She had originally arranged to meet Mrs. Xin this morning to discuss business.
As Song Xizhi spoke, he felt immense regret and hurriedly went out to fetch his medicine box. He then remembered to instruct the bronze-clad servant outside:
"Qing Tong, go to the Xin residence and inform Madam Xin that I have something to attend to today and I'm afraid I won't be able to go to Baifanglou. Regarding the spice business, either have her come to the Marquis's residence, or we'll reschedule for another day."
Her beautiful but weak and pitiful husband!
He absolutely cannot die like this.
What she said yesterday was just said in anger!
If he were to die like this, where in the world could one find such a breathtaking face and such an incredibly strong physique?
Meanwhile, in Guanyunxuan on the other side, He Yunce returned to the Marquis's residence late at night yesterday and stayed in the Marquis of Anding's study for a long time.
By the time I got back to my own yard, it was already midnight.
He was worried about Song Ruoan, so he rushed to find her as soon as he returned to the courtyard. But as soon as he stepped into the house, he was greeted by the smell of blood.
Seeing Song Ruoan lying face down on the bed, blood seeping through her clothes on her back.
Song Ruoan, on the other hand, was flushed all over, her face was covered in sweat, her lips were bleeding from being bitten, her eyes had lost their luster, and she looked utterly disheveled.
He Yunze looked at her miserable appearance, his eyelids twitched, and his heart felt like it was being stabbed.
"Ruo'an! Ruo'an! Why aren't you asleep yet? You don't need to wait for me."
When he got closer and touched Song Ruoan's burning hot body, he froze for a moment: "How could you have suffered such a serious injury? It's much more serious than what I suffered before."
He knew how painful the family discipline he had received in the past was, but Ruo'an's current state probably made her suffer even more than he had.
How could a delicate young woman like Ruo'an possibly withstand it?
Hearing He Yunce's voice from outside, Song Ruoan bit her lip and didn't answer, not even raising her head.
Seeing her attitude, Granny Hu hurriedly said, "It's not that she doesn't want to sleep, but Madam is in pain all over. After fainting and being treated by the doctor, she woke up from the pain and couldn't sleep at all!"
He Yunze gasped in anguish, "What kind of wretched creature would do such a thing? Didn't the doctor even prescribe some anesthetic to relieve her pain?"
He had been punished by his family and had taken medicine prescribed by the renowned physician Qihuang. Although the medicine was harmful, it did relieve his pain at the time.
If Ruoan didn't have this opportunity, she would probably be stuck in a frying pan for the next few days.
Song Ruoan felt that He Yunce was asking a question he already knew the answer to, and thinking of his ruthlessness, tears streamed down her face.
Granny Hu sighed, "The old lady said that she wouldn't let the doctor prescribe anesthetic so that the young mistress would remember the lesson. Otherwise, wouldn't the family discipline be meaningless?"
“It’s clear that the young mistress did all this for you, but the old lady is furious. She won’t even let the doctor prescribe any good medicine, only ordinary medicine, which might even leave a scar…”
Hearing this, He Yunze could no longer bear it. He stepped forward to hug Song Ruoan, but was afraid of touching her wounds, so he could only say bitterly:
"Grandmother is so cruel! She has no idea that you were framed by Song Xizhi!"
"But Ruo'an, it's alright, it's alright! Grandmother did all this on purpose for outsiders. You just need to hold on for one night. Tomorrow, Lin Miaoxin and Prime Minister Lin will come to ask for medicine. As long as the Marquis's mansion cures her, Prime Minister Lin will forgive and forget about the past."
"This matter is over, and the Marquis's mansion will remain as before. I will have the doctor select all kinds of good medicines to apply to you so that you will no longer be in pain and will not have any scars."
Hearing this, Song Ruoan's eyes finally showed a glimmer of hope. She sobbed in He Yunce's arms, "Husband, you must save me, my body is in so much pain!"
"it hurts!"
He Yunze held Song Ruoan in his arms and took another deep breath.
Since his rebirth, countless unexpected events have occurred, unfolding in ways that do not follow his previous life's experiences, leaving him feeling caught off guard.
He Yunce felt somewhat powerless and exhausted at this moment.
The series of failures made him feel that he could no longer control the raging, anxious, and tense beast within him.
At this moment, he desperately wanted Song Ruoan to get better soon.
Once Ruo'an regains his energy, he will be able to start developing incense just like in his previous life. The specially made incense will not only soothe his emotions, but also make him calm and composed, so that he will not change his expression even if Mount Tai collapses in front of him.
There are also other types of incense for calming the nerves, maintaining health, and beautifying the skin, each with its own unique fragrance and is truly one of a kind.
It was not only needed by literati when composing poems, but also by ladies in the capital and imperial concubines when chanting scriptures and worshipping Buddha.
Even the favored concubines in the harem would often buy incense for their private quarters to win the emperor's favor and secure their offspring.
In his previous life, it was Ruo'an's method of making incense that gave him a second boost.
After he became an official, he was sought after by scholars and writers in the countryside, and at the same time, he gained the appreciation of princes and concubines in the palace, and even received a huge amount of money.
Everyone treated him with respect, which propelled his official career to a new level. This was far more effective than treating a few noblewomen in the capital or winning over a few superiors.
True friendship is revealed in times of adversity; they have always supported each other.
He Yunze thought for a moment, then gently patted Song Ruoan's head and patiently comforted her, "Ruoan, my promise still stands. I'm waiting for you to get better."
"Close your eyes and take a nap. I'll watch over you. When you wake up, Lin Miaoxin will be cured, and Grandmother will no longer be angry with you."
He sat on the stool and stayed with Song Ruoan until dawn.
Seeing that Song Ruoan had just fallen asleep, He Yunze went to bathe and change his clothes before heading to the flower hall to greet Prime Minister Lin.
When the servants reported that the Lin family's carriage was almost at the entrance of the Marquis's residence, He Yunze hurriedly ordered his servants to invite Song Xizhi over.
"Remember to speak politely. Just say that I invited her here. Today is about the future of the Marquis's mansion. I will let bygones be bygones regarding our past. From now on, I will respect her as my sister-in-law and treat her well."
