Shangguan Wanning felt very embarrassed under the gaze of everyone.
"Her Majesty the Consort has arrived."
Only then did everyone turn their attention back and kneel down to welcome Ge Shuyan.
Ge Shuyan smiled slightly, walked straight to Shangguan Wanning, and helped her up personally.
"You haven't been to the palace for a long time. I don't have anyone to talk to." Ge Shuyan glanced at Yin Yuqing calmly and said with a smile, "What's written in this letter? Can you show it to me?"
Yin Yuqing could see that Ge Shuyan and Shangguan Wanning had a very good personal relationship.
She was a little confused for a moment, but Ge Shuyan didn't care about that. He reached out and grabbed the letter in his hand.
"These are all the official matters that Lord Shangguan had not yet completed. Princess An Ning just delivered them on behalf of her father. Madam Mu, there is no need to make a fuss."
Yin Yuqing was stunned. It was obvious that Ge Shuyan was lying with open eyes.
She raised her head and was about to refute, but met Ge Shuyan's sharp gaze. She had no choice but to swallow the words in her heart.
"Madam Mu, I have also heard something about the relationship between Lord Mu and Wan Ning. Since Lord Mu finally married you, you should stop brooding over it."
Ge Shuyan also helped Yin Yuqing up and said with a smile: "Although Wan Ning is better than you in every way, there is no need for you to hold a grudge against what happened before. Could it be that Lord Mu is still thinking about Wan Ning and is not treating you well?"
Every word Ge Shuyan said touched Yin Yuqing's sore spot, but she didn't dare to refute and could only stand there with tears in her eyes.
"Alright, all of you can leave now," Ge Shuyan took Shangguan Wanning's hand, "Let's go, I asked the imperial kitchen to prepare some new snacks, you can try them together."
Shangguan Wanning secretly breathed a sigh of relief and walked past Yin Yuqing, feeling depressed.
She never thought that the letter she wrote to Mu Jingrui would be given to Yin Yuqing by Mu Jingrui, and that it would embarrass her.
After returning home, Shangguan Wanning suppressed her sad thoughts and listened to her subordinates report on all the search work.
It was as if my father had disappeared from this world, with no news from him at all.
"Is it...really in the Shenji Camp?"
Since Mu Jingrui could not be counted on, Shangguan Wanning decided to sneak into the Shenji Camp and investigate herself.
"Brother Yao, I'm going to move to Deshan Hall to live for a few days."
Shangguan Wanning found Sun Jinyao and told him, "Please take care of my mother while I'm away."
"Why do you want to live in Deshan Hall?" Sun Jinyao asked with concern, "Did something happen?"
The Shenjiying was the place commanded by Mu Jingrui. Shangguan Wanning was worried that Sun Jinyao would think too much, so she did not tell him the truth.
"Xiao Zhenting lives at home. I feel disgusted when I see this person."
This was also true. Shangguan Wan Ning had to do everything she could to avoid meeting Xiao Zhenting every day. She was afraid that she would not be able to resist and would slap him twice.
"Alright." Sun Jinyao understood Shangguan Wanning's feelings, "Then take care of yourself. Don't worry, I will help you take care of the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion."
With Sun Jinyao as her backer, Shangguan Wanning had fewer worries.
She simply packed a few clothes and came to Deshan Hall. She asked Li Qiao to make arrangements for her. She disguised herself as a man and entered the Shenji Camp as a doctor to conduct routine physical examinations on the soldiers of the Shenji Camp.
This opportunity would allow her to stay in the Shenji Camp for many days with good reason and come into contact with many people.
When Shangguan Wanning was taking the pulse of the soldiers of the Shenji Camp, she would also chat with them and extract information from them.
She tried to find the man who wanted to kidnap her that night.
It was another busy day, but Shangguan Wanning gained nothing.
At night, she returned to her room and was about to undress for bed when she heard someone knocking on the door.
"General Wu, why are you looking for me so late? Are you feeling unwell?"
"Doctor Li, your great opportunity has come."
Shangguan Wanning came to the Shenji Camp and used the identity of Li Qiao to the outside world.
She had a pleasant conversation with General Wu and asked with a smile, "What good opportunity?"
"Haven't you been making medicinal food for me every day these days? I feel like I'm getting much better." General Wu patted his chest. "Lord Mu came to inspect the camp today, and I gave him the medicinal food you made for me. He praised it highly after eating it, and wanted to meet you."
Shangguan Wanning felt as if she was struck by lightning.
With her current disguise skills, it would not be easy to deceive Mu Jingrui.
"Haha, General Wu...you are really...really...so kind to me. But I am timid, and I heard that Lord Mu is a fierce and evil man. I am afraid I will say something nonsense when I see him. So...don't meet him."
"Don't listen to the nonsense those people say. Lord Mu is just a little serious, he's not a monster, he's actually quite handsome."
"but……"
"Oh, don't worry about it. Seize the opportunity. If he can help you, you might be able to enter the Imperial Hospital."
Shangguan Wanning didn't know whether to laugh or cry. General Wu ignored her expression that was about to cry and pulled her towards Mu Jingrui's room.
"Go in, it's on your own, don't be nervous."
General Wu sent Shangguan Wanning to the door of the study and left in a hurry.
Shangguan Wanning had no choice but to knock on the door and go in.
She saw Mu Jingrui sitting at the desk reading official documents.
Mu Jingrui raised his head and looked towards her, and she quickly lowered her head to avoid his gaze.
"Are you the doctor who is here to conduct routine physical examinations on the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion?"
"Yeah." Shangguan Wanning tried her best not to speak.
"I heard from my colleagues here that you are a good doctor."
"Um."
"It just so happens that I injured my shoulder when I was practicing a few days ago. The imperial physician in the palace treated me for a long time, but the wound kept coming back. Can you help me take a look?"
"ah?"
"Why? No?"
"No...it's just that I didn't bring my medicine box. I'll go get it first."
Shangguan Wanning turned around and was about to run away, but Mu Jingrui blocked her with his arm.
"Whatever medicine you want, I have it here. If it's not available... just let me know and I'll ask someone else to get it."
Shangguan Wanning lowered her head and bit her lips lightly, as if she could not escape.
"Oh well."
Mu Jingrui nodded with satisfaction, took a step forward, approached Shangguan Wanning, and opened his arms.
"What are you doing?" Shangguan Wanning raised her head, met Mu Jingrui's deep eyes, and quickly lowered it guiltily.
"If you don't undress me, how can you see my wound?"
Shangguan Wanning closed her eyes helplessly. She began to suspect that Mu Jingrui had seen through her identity and was deliberately making things difficult for her.
She reached out carefully and untied Mu Jingrui's belt.
When she took off Mu Jingrui's shirt, his abdominal muscles appeared in front of her, and her face instantly turned red with shame.
"Go on." Mu Jingrui said calmly.
