Chapter 41
Thoughtful Zhufeng, who was moving things on the side, couldn't stand it anymore and said impatiently: "How many times have you asked, are you annoyed?"
"You can't do anything for your wife, so don't make trouble."
The carriage of Jing'an Marquis's Mansion was broken and could no longer be used, but the things in the carriage were intact. Zhufeng was moving them to the carriage of the palace.
"I'm sorry, I'm just worried about my wife and caused you trouble." Tan Yu was very sorry.
Zhuiyun opened the water bag and handed it to her, comforting her: "The master is here, don't worry."
Tan Yu nodded, took the water and drank it.
After running for a long time, she was indeed thirsty.
While drinking water, she suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves.
Tan Yu put down the water bag and saw Jiang Shu and Yu Zheng riding together.
"Master." Zhuiyun and Zhufeng stepped forward to greet them.
Yu Zheng got off the horse, threw the reins to Zhu Feng, carried Jiang Shu off the horse, and helped her walk to the carriage.
"Madam, you are injured." Tan Yu was anxious and jumped to help Jiang Shu.
"Ah!" But she was more seriously injured than Jiang Shu, and she burst into tears when she tried.
"Tan Yu, don't move." Jiang Shu stopped her and walked to the carriage in a few steps.
"If you have anything to say, get in the car and talk." Yu Zheng saw through Tan Yu's thoughts and spoke first.
Tan Yu had to hold back the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
After Jiang Shu got on the car, Tan Yu limped and tried to climb into the car.
"Puff!" Zhu Feng was amused by his funny appearance.
Zhu Yun glanced at him and stepped forward to help Tan Yu.
After the master and servant got on the car and sat down, Yu Zheng got on the horse again and ordered the team to move forward.
"Madam, let me see your injury." Tan Yu moved to Jiang Shu with difficulty.
Jiang Shu gently rolled up her trouser legs, revealing her injured knee.
Tan Yu blamed herself and said, "It's all my fault that I'm useless and couldn't protect you."
Jiang Shu chuckled and said, "Silly girl, it has nothing to do with you, don't take it all on yourself."
"I'm just angry at myself for being useless." Tan Yu sobbed.
Jiang Shu coaxed her softly for a few times, then shifted her attention and said, "Madam, I'm in so much pain, please bandage me with medicine."
"Yes." Tan Yu hurriedly took the medicine box prepared by Zhuiyun.
Thinking that Tan Yu was also injured, Jiang Shu asked her, "Where are you hurt?"
Tan Yu lifted the hem of her skirt and showed Jiang Shu her ankle, which was wrapped like a dumpling.
"I ran too fast and didn't look at the road. I twisted it. It will be fine after a few days of rest."
Jiang Shu reached out to pick the dead grass in her hair and said softly, "We survived a disaster today, and we will have good fortune in the future."
Tan Yu nodded heavily, "Thanks to His Royal Highness King Jing for saving us."
When mentioning King Jing, Jiang Shu's lips showed a gentle smile.
The master and servant were talking when the carriage suddenly stopped.
The two were wondering when Zhuiyun's steady voice came into their ears: "Madam's things are all in the carriage. There is a river next to it, where you can wash up."
Jiang Shu heard the words and lifted the curtain to see that there was indeed a shallow stream.
"Madam, please change your clothes first." Tan Yu opened the box and quickly found a set of clothes.
After running away, the master and servant were both dirty and in a mess. It was indeed time to change clothes and wash up.
After changing clothes in the carriage, Tan Yu opened the door. When Jiang Shu moved to the door and prepared to get off the carriage reluctantly, she looked up and saw Yu Zheng standing beside the carriage.
"Slow down." Yu Zheng held out his hand to her.
Jiang Shu felt a little embarrassed. She looked around and found that the guards had their backs to them and no one was watching.
Jiang Shu was shocked and admired Yu Zheng's meticulousness and thoughtfulness.
Tan Yu's foot injury was more serious and she could hardly walk. She had to let Zhuiyun carry her to the river.
"His Royal Highness Prince Jing and his subordinates are so gentle and considerate." Tan Yu blushed and whispered to Jiang Shu.
Jiang Shu agreed deeply.
She had never seen a man as meticulous and thoughtful as Yu Zheng.
While the master and servant were washing up, Yu Zheng and his party were collecting firewood and making a fire to prepare lunch.
Soon, a lingering aroma drifted to the riverside and penetrated into Tan Yu's nose.
"What a nice smell." Tan Yu sniffed deeply and swallowed his saliva.
It was past noon and Jiang Shu was hungry.
Just when the two were worrying about how to go to eat, Yu Zheng and Zhui Yun came over.
The master and servant had a tacit understanding, one supported one, and the other held one. They moved Jiang Shu and Tan Yu to the fire.
"Eat." Yu Zheng handed the roasted fish to Jiang Shu.
Jiang Shu hesitated and did not take it.
Tan Yu said on the side: "My wife doesn't like to eat fish."
Yu Zheng was slightly stunned when he heard it, put the fish aside, took out an oil paper package and opened it, and there was a cold roast chicken inside.
Under Jiang Shu's gaze, Yu Zheng skillfully threaded the roasted chicken with dry branches, put it on the fire to heat it, tore it into small pieces and put it in front of her.
"This is lovely."
"Thank you, Prince." Jiang Shu took it with both hands and ate it in small bites.
Seeing that Jiang Shu was satisfied with the meal, Yu Zheng curled the corners of his lips slightly, picked up the roasted fish beside him, and ate it slowly. Zhu
Feng widened his eyes in surprise, unable to believe it.
His prince was actually eating fish.
Yu Zheng never eats fish.
It's not because he doesn't like it, but because he couldn't spit out the bones when he was a child, and he was often stuck by fish bones. He felt that eating fish was a very troublesome thing, so he simply didn't eat it.
In his opinion, eating fish is not much different from eating other meats, and it is not necessary to eat it.
But Shangjing is surrounded by the Lanjiang River, and fish are abundant. People in Shangjing love to eat fish. So Yu Zheng thought Jiang Shu liked it, so he specially grilled it for her.
Jiang Shu didn't like fish, which was beyond Yu Zheng's expectation. But he was not angry, but a little happy.
After eating and drinking, the group packed up and set off again.
Because of the long delay, it was already dusk when they entered the city.
When Shen Changze returned to the mansion, he casually asked the doorman: "Has the lady returned yet?"
"Not yet."
Shen Changze stopped as he entered the mansion, and his heart sank.
She hasn't returned yet so late, maybe there was an accident on the road
. He called Huo Chong and was about to go out of the city to look for her. As soon as he left the mansion, he saw a carriage slowly stop.
It was not the carriage of the Marquis's mansion.
But Jiang Shu got off the carriage.
"Prince" Shen Changze was shocked to see the person who helped Jiang Shu get off the car.
At this time, dusk was all around, and the sky was dim and unclear. Shen Changze suspected that he had seen it wrong.
But when he walked closer and took a closer look, it was indeed Yu Zheng.
How could King Jing personally send Jiang Shu back to the mansion? They are very familiar with each other.
Shen Changze was stunned on the spot, and several speculations came to his mind.
Yu Zheng looked up at Shen Changze, his expression indifferent: "Your wife and her maidservant have injured their legs and are unable to move. Marquis Jing'an, please call someone to help them into the mansion first."
Shen Changze came to his senses and hurriedly asked Huo Chong to go into the mansion to call a few maidservants.
Jiang Shu was injured. What happened?
Shen Changze helped Jiang Shu from Yu Zheng's hands, his heart full of doubts, but he did not dare to be rude in front of Yu Zheng.
He questioned Jiang Shu with his eyes, but Jiang Shu avoided his eyes and said nothing.
The atmosphere was a bit awkward, but fortunately the maidservant came quickly,
"Madam, be careful." The maidservant carefully helped Jiang Shu and Tan Yu into the mansion.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for sending my wife back. I will definitely come to the mansion to thank you another day." Shen Changze bowed and saluted.
But after he finished his polite words, Yu Zheng did not leave, but walked towards the Marquis's mansion.
"I have something to say to Marquis Jing'an."
What must be said now? Shen Changze followed with doubts.
After sitting down in the front hall, the maid served tea, and Yu Zheng asked the servants to leave, leaving only him and Shen Changze.
So cautious, what is it?
Shen Changze's scalp was tense, waiting seriously.
