Chi Mu sighed and looked at Shen Yuerong helplessly.
"Didn't I tell you before that no matter what the prince wants to do with you, you have to wait until I come back to discuss it? You didn't even think about the reason for the queen mother's illness, and you agreed to it?"
He was also worried about Shen Yuerong, and was even more afraid that this incident would put her in an irretrievable situation.
"So... the Queen Mother's illness is not as simple as the Crown Prince said, right?"
Chi Mu nodded, "I have also been to the Divine Doctor for several cooking classes. Besides, the people in the Imperial Hospital are not all stupid. They have served in the palace for so many years, and at least they can tell who their master is."
"When you say that, I probably know what you mean."
Chi Mu touched her head and said, "The Empress Dowager's fate is coming to an end. Everyone is waiting for her to die, but you insist on getting involved in this mess."
He was still wondering if there was any way to reverse the current situation.
Shen Yuerong shook her head.
"I have my own plans. I always feel that the Queen Mother seems to know something about the Shen family, but the news seems to be a bit secret and cannot be easily told to others."
"You mean... the Queen Mother knew about the Shen family?"
"I can't be sure, but both the Queen Mother and the Empress looked at me in a strange way. I want to give it a try."
Although he was a little worried about Shen Yuerong's safety, it was something she wanted to do after all, so he naturally would not stop her.
"Since that's what you want, just go for it. No matter what happens, at least I'm behind you. You can put all the blame on me, and the people in the palace won't make things difficult for you."
Shen Yuerong was very grateful for his help behind her.
"I don't need to thank you for your kindness."
…
I don’t know what happened that night. I only know that on the next morning, Chi Mu was supposed to go to the morning court, but the door was already blocked by the palace sedan chair.
And standing in front of the car. But it was the nanny most beloved by the Empress Dowager - Qin.
"Madame Qin?"
Chi Mu was raised by the Empress Dowager since he was a child, so naturally he is close to the people around her.
Nanny Qin nodded and looked at the prince with a smile, "Miss Shen can get up now. The Queen Mother has ordered me not to waste a moment and take her to the palace immediately."
He looked around the relatively peaceful courtyard and said, "She stayed up late reading yesterday, so she probably hasn't gotten up yet. But since the Queen Mother has summoned her, and Nanny Qin has come to invite her personally, it's time for her to get up."
He waved his hand, and Fang Mu behind him immediately walked into the yard.
At the gate of Shen Yuerong's courtyard, I happened to meet Taohua.
"The people in the palace are already waiting at the door. You and Miss Qinghua should stand up."
"So anxious?"
Taohua looked at the house with closed doors and windows, and said helplessly, "It's already daybreak, and the young lady just woke up. I'm afraid she can't get up at this hour."
"The people in the palace are urging us, but there is nothing we can do. Sister Taohua, please help me."
Taohua had no choice but to walk into the yard and tell Qinghua about it.
Qinghua naturally knew the seriousness of the matter, so he quickly pushed the door open and walked in, pulling Shen Yuerong up from the bed.
I had just fallen asleep for two hours, and when I was pulled awake, I felt a little confused.
"What time is it?"
Shen Yuerong was still a little dazed, but Qinghua had already brought her some clean clothes.
"Miss, please hurry up. People from the palace are waiting outside the door."
"Someone from the palace?"
This sentence made her sober up a little, and she remembered what she promised the prince yesterday, "I just promised him yesterday, and the palace sent someone today. He is really anxious."
There was no choice but to get up, change clothes, put on makeup, and stumble out. But a quarter of an hour had passed.
Chi Mu knew that Shen Yuerong had entered the palace, so he ordered someone to push him to the court directly, intending to accompany Shen Yuerong personally this time.
Nanny Qin and he were waiting at the door.
Shen Yuerong walked out of the door and looked at the two sedan chairs blocking her door. She frowned in confusion.
Which one is this? ?
Hearing Shen Yuerong's voice, he got down from his sedan chair.
"I'll go with you."
Shen Yuerong wanted to refuse, but seeing how worried he looked, she finally agreed.
On the way into the palace, Shen Yuerong lowered her voice and asked Chi Mu, "I only met the Queen Mother once last time, and I don't remember everything before. Can you tell me what is taboo in the palace?"
Chi Mu found it funny to see the person next to him looking so nervous, so he reached out and touched her.
"What are you afraid of? Am I not by your side? Don't worry, no matter how big a mess you get into, I'll always be there to help you."
After entering the palace gate, they changed into a sedan chair and were forced to separate. Then they arrived at the empress dowager's door. Before they got close, they saw the queen waiting.
When the Queen saw Shen Yuerong, she came towards her with a smile on her face, but there was still a hint of sadness between her brows.
"Rong'er, thank you for being willing to come to the palace to treat the Queen Mother."
Shen Yuerong. He did not feel that there was anything inappropriate between him and the Queen Mother, so it was normal for him to treat her.
"Why should I refuse to treat the Queen Mother?"
Shen Yuerong asked this question subconsciously. The Queen might have sensed some ambiguity in her words, so she quickly tried to make amends for herself, "I saw you were always busy with business, so I thought you had never inherited your father's legacy."
It would have been better if the Queen hadn't explained this, as it only aroused Shen Yuerong's suspicion.
If it was someone like the prince, who always put himself first and didn't care about anything in the outside world, he naturally didn't know what she was doing.
But the emperor commended Shen Yuerong for going to the military camp to take care of the injured soldiers, and the queen was accompanying the emperor.
I definitely know that.
It seemed that there was something that she shouldn't know at this moment, but the queen let it slip, and she knew it all at once.
"Really? I have been immersed in medicine for many years. However, when Fu Hengyu left, the general's mansion was full of old and young people. If I didn't run a business, I was afraid that I couldn't even support my family. At that time, I had no choice but to give up medicine and turn to business."
Today, although the shop has brought her huge profits, she still regrets not studying her father's rare medical books. Otherwise, she would be able to treat more than just the ordinary ones.
I don't even know how many innocent people I can save.
"You are just like your father. When you talk about medical skills, your whole body...lights up."
