Shen Yuerong looked up at the man in front of her, who was hiding his face with a black scarf, and he did look a little strange.
"Then I'll trouble you to follow me today and help me lift the wheelchair."
She said apologetically, "This wheelchair is a bit heavy, I'm afraid it will take some effort to move it. I'd better ask Qinghua to go and get the crutches for me."
Chi Mu's face did not show any displeasure. Instead, he said to the person beside him, "Heng Yu, follow Miss Qinghua for a walk."
"yes."
After the two of them left, only Shen Yuerong and Chi Mu were left on the second floor.
"I was busy with other things and forgot to ask you. I found your medicine. How is your leg now?"
"Nothing."
Chi Mu raised his eyes, with a bit of inquiry, "No consciousness?"
She nodded, but inexplicably felt guilty.
"I have seen all the herbs you asked the owner of the medicine shop for. According to the amount you asked for, it is impossible that there is no reaction at all now. Shen Yuerong, you don't have to hide it from me."
Chi Mu felt a little aggrieved.
Now his medicine shop was exposed in front of her, but Shen Yuerong didn't say anything to him.
"Even if I didn't tell you, you would have known it. Why does Your Majesty need to ask me again?"
"I want you to tell me in person, instead of me having to do everything myself..."
Shen Yuerong frowned.
"These things are originally my own, and have nothing to do with the prince. Why is the prince so attentive? Could it be that the prince also wants to..."
She looked at Chi Mu warily, not believing that Chi Mu was really here to help her.
He has trusted the wrong person and taken a wrong step, and he must not make the same mistake again.
"Forget it. Since I still can't make you trust me completely, I won't ask any more questions. But one day, I will definitely make you regard me as your own."
"Then your Majesty will have to take more care of it."
Shen Yuerong turned her head away, remaining calm.
While the two were talking, Qinghua and Hengyu had already returned from the General's Mansion, holding the crutches that Shen Yuerong had made herself three years ago.
After three years of use, the crutch has developed many flaws.
"This thing looks so old and has a lot of flaws on it. Didn't the general think of replacing it for you?"
Chi Mu looked at Shen Yuerong with some doubt.
After all, the same goes for wheelchairs, which all seem to be at a loss.
"They have accompanied me through the dark times day and night over the past three years. Now they are indeed a little old, and I am reluctant to part with them, so I have been reluctant to replace them."
They are all old friends.
Shen Yuerong stretched out her hand, supported herself with the crutches, and then stood up.
She took two steps forward and indeed felt a little uncomfortable.
However, after years of running-in, even if there are some problems in some minor details, Shen Yuerong can quickly grasp the direction.
"That's good. You don't need to go with me."
After Shen Yuerong walked around twice, she turned her inquiring gaze to Chi Mu.
"Heng Yu belongs to you today. No matter where you go, he has to follow you."
"But I can move by myself now, so I don't need another person to accompany me!"
People outside don’t know that he is Chi Mu’s man, but in Shen Yuerong’s opinion, this is not appropriate after all.
After all, she was a woman and Hengyu was a foreign man.
Chi Mu sighed, "I need someone to guarantee your safety. Otherwise, if you are in any danger along the way, the people in the General's Mansion will put the blame on me."
"He didn't know I was here to see you today. Of course, even if something really happened, Princess Yong'an would be the one to take the blame."
Chi Mu shook his head.
"If Yongan and the General's Mansion get into a fight, His Majesty will have to summon me to the palace day and night to listen to him talk."
When Chi Mu thought of that scene, he felt a headache.
"After all, it's just today. Just think of it as a way to make Yongan and I feel more at ease."
"All right."
Shen Yuerong couldn't persuade him, so she had to agree.
Afternoon.
Shen Yuerong was invited to board Princess Yong'an's ship.
Princess Yong'an had already prepared everything for the banquet for her.
"I don't know what you like, so I prepared some of them casually. You don't have to be restrained."
Princess Yong'an kindly took Shen Yuerong's hand and placed her aside.
There were several young ladies from wealthy families on the boat as well. Shen Yuerong only thought they looked familiar, but couldn't recognize them all at once.
“Mrs. Shen.”
I don't know who started it, but the wine was handed to Shen Yuerong.
"I heard a few days ago that you cured the young marquis's illness. This is a difficult and complicated disease that all the doctors and imperial physicians in the capital don't know how to treat."
“Mrs. Shen really deserves to be the descendant of a miraculous doctor!”
Everyone skillfully pushed all the wine glasses in front of Shen Yuerong.
Shen Yuerong looked a little embarrassed, she didn't know how to drink.
"You guys."
Princess Yong'an stood up, walked in front of Shen Yuerong, and sat down with her.
"Don't bully my distinguished guest, go play over there by yourself."
After a few people left reluctantly, Princess Yong'an spoke again.
"They have no ill intentions, they just want to make friends with you. I heard Brother Mu also talk about you. Although your legs... are indeed a little pitiful, I think you have never minded this in the past three years. I didn't tell them in advance..."
"Thank you, my lord."
"I never cared about these legs, because they could not stop me from pursuing the world that belongs to me."
Shen Yuerong never gave up everything she had ever pursued just because of her crippled legs.
Temporarily giving up medicine and going into business is just to meet the immediate survival conditions.
"Although I shouldn't ask, I still want to say that I have heard a lot about you in the past. Are you really that deeply in love with the general? If you were, why would you abandon me on your wedding night and go away for many years? Now you have returned with a concubine."
Princess Yong'an spoke more tactfully, and even her tone was not as reckless as before.
"My princess, do you also think that the general and I are not just an ordinary couple?"
"I didn't say that."
Princess Yong'an waved her hands quickly.
"It's just that since I married Yue Lang, he has valued me very much. I thought that ordinary couples were like this, but I didn't expect such a big thing to happen in the Fu family. From beginning to end, I have only seen you and have never seen any members of the Fu family, so I am a little curious about the relationship between you and your wife."
If Shen Yuerong hadn't stepped in to resolve the situation, Fu Hengjing would probably be dead now.
However, the matter between Princess Yong'an and the General's Mansion was resolved, but Fu Hengjing's reputation also spread.
With this move, Shen Yuerong won the heart of Princess Yong'an and also made Fu Hengjing famous, so it was not a loss!
"Um…"
Shen Yuerong picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it all.
"Maybe...it's really as you said."
