Chapter 123 Catch Her Back



Shen Yuerong was very tempted and wanted to follow in Chi Mu's footsteps.

However, everything in the capital is not clear now. If I follow them actively, it will inevitably arouse suspicion from others.

Chi Mu was a little hesitant. Judging from Shen Yuerong's personality, she was worried about the people affected by the disaster at this moment. She had already followed him a long time ago. How could she refuse his invitation?

"Is there anything you're concerned about? Tell me and I'll help you solve it."

Shen Yuerong shook her head and sighed, "I...I just don't want to implicate you."

In the past, when she was alone, if she knew where a doctor was needed, she would have run over with a medicine box. The reason she was still hesitant at this moment was naturally because she was afraid that her appearance would affect Chi Mu.

"Is it because of the prince?"

After thinking about it, Chi Mu was sure that it was only him.

She nodded. "I don't want you to be in danger. The disaster is serious and problems will arise. If I were still with you, I would definitely..."

Chi Mu touched her forehead and said, "You were not so timid before, and neither am I. If you want to go, then you naturally have countless reasons to go, but if you don't want to go, then the simple fact of not wanting is worth a thousand words."

While Shen Yuerong was hesitating, Chi Mu had already ordered people to load the things onto the carriage.

The moment he saw her coming out in high spirits, Chi Mu knew that he had made the right bet.

Shen Yuerong held the medicine box in her hand and looked at him, "I will go with you, even if it's just a little boy beside you, I am willing."

Chi Mu stretched out his hand and pulled her into the carriage.

"You are willing, but I am still reluctant. Don't worry, you just need to do your duty as a doctor, and I will take care of the rest."

His Majesty's decree ordering the prince to provide disaster relief had already been issued during the morning court session.

I thought he went there alone, but somehow the news that Shen Yuerong followed him spread throughout the streets and alleys.

Fu Hengyu was naturally a little restless after hearing about this. He looked at his old mother and said, "Mom, I want to go to the disaster area together. I want to get her back."

Du Wan has been doing all kinds of evil these days. He has squandered all the savings in the mansion and was even merciless to the old lady and Fu Hengyu. Naturally, he misses the more sensible Shen Yuerong even more.

"Oh, it's all my fault. I was greedy and wanted more. If I hadn't thought that she, a crippled woman, was not worthy of you, I would not have allowed you to keep another woman outside, nor would I have let a wolf into your house. Now..."

The old lady sighed, but it was too late to say anything now, things had already happened, and all she could do was to make amends.

"Don't worry, mother. I will do my best to bring her back. We met when we were little, and we once faced hardships together in front of the enemy. This is definitely not comparable to the favor from the prince for a few days. I promise that I will bring her back safely."

The old lady reached out her hand and handed him her jade pendant. "I don't have anything valuable here. This jade pendant was left to me by your grandmother, who said it was for the daughter-in-law of the Fu family. Now you give it to her and tell her that she will be the only daughter-in-law of our Fu family."

"I understand, Mother."

Fu Hengyu walked out of the old lady's courtyard and happened to meet the brother and sister who came with them.

Without Shen Yuerong's supervision, the two of them acted recklessly according to their personalities. Now, many people dislike them and they don't even have any good friends around them.

Fu Hengyue handed him the bracelet on her hand and said, "Brother, this bracelet was given to me by Aunt Du. I don't want it anymore. I want my sister-in-law. Can you let my sister-in-law come back?"

Fu Hengjing also shouted, "I also want my sister-in-law, not Aunt Du, the annoying one."

In the past, Aunt Du would provide them with financial support and show them endless love.

But as time passed, all of these disappeared, and were replaced by her ambition.

"elder brother."

He stroked the heads of his brother and sister-in-law lovingly, and then said comfortingly, "I will ask His Majesty to go to the front line to provide disaster relief tomorrow morning. I will do my best to bring your sister-in-law back intact. Then our family will never be separated again."

"good!"

At this point, he repented and knew that if the General's Mansion wanted to survive for a long time, he had to rely on her.

The second day.

Fu Hengyu asked for permission in public, but the emperor just kept silent.

After the court session, the prince invited him to the East Palace.

"What do you mean? How could you forget who robbed your woman? Now that you want to provide disaster relief, do you want to help him? Could it be that because of your love for the woman, our general wants to completely turn against his side in the battle just because of that woman?"

"Your Highness is joking. I have never liked women from the Shen family."

"dislike?"

The prince pulled out two pieces of manuscript paper from the book beside him and threw them on the ground. "Why don't you take a look at these first? You don't like her. Are you crazy?"

Written on that piece of paper were all his absurdities, especially his entanglement with the Shen family a few days ago and the dirty things he did in front of the Shen family's door.

"That was just my temporary help...but I wanted to provide disaster relief entirely for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

The prince snorted coldly, not believing it at all. "For me? His Majesty personally appointed that prince for this matter, and I don't want to get involved in this mess!"

Natural disasters are often accompanied by man-made disasters.

The prince certainly didn't want anything to happen to his people, and after finally pushing the matter onto the prince, he naturally didn't want to be involved in any more.

"This kind of thing is always a double-edged sword. If it is handled well, not only can it win the respect of His Majesty, but also the hearts of the people. However, if it is not handled well, even one's own life will be in danger. I know that the prince does not want to miss this opportunity, but he is just afraid. Therefore, I am willing to go on behalf of the prince. Whether it is good or bad, I am willing to bear it for the prince."

"You really think so?"

The prince looked at him doubtfully, not knowing whether he should believe it.

He nodded, "Your Highness, I really care about you, so I want to go to Jiangnan. Even if I have done nothing wrong, I can't let the prince appease the people so easily and give him credit for nothing."

The prince was naturally moved when he heard this, "I will talk to His Majesty on your behalf. Go down and prepare to leave the capital."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

In the afternoon, the Crown Prince asked for an audience with His Majesty and brought up the matter openly.

The emperor looked at him hesitantly. "I originally asked you to do this, but you refused, so I sent the prince to do it. Now you've sent your own retainers. What does this mean?"
