What secret are you hiding from me?
In the darkness, Zhuyuan murmured to himself, leaving only a sigh.
The next morning, Zhen Wanwan leaned weakly against the headboard.
Feeling something amiss on her forehead, she reached out and pulled off the damp cloth, which was still warm.
Zhen Wanwan looked around the room and, seeing that Zhu Yuan wasn't inside, quickly took out the thermometer and took his temperature.
After seeing his temperature drop, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Since she transmigrated so long ago, she has never been sick. She has encountered similar situations before, but she never fell ill.
This time she actually got a fever. Zhen Wanwan thought to herself, could it be because she's been living too comfortably these days and can't handle any more stress?
"woke up?"
The bedroom door was opened from the outside, and Zhu Yuan slowly walked in carrying a bowl of cooked porridge.
Seeing that Zhen Wanwan had woken up, he quickly put the things he was holding on the table, walked to the bedside, and measured her forehead with his hand.
"Hmm...it's not hot anymore, but you still need to be careful. The doctor came to see you this morning and said it was caused by excessive fright, and you need to take medicine for two days..."
Zhen Wanwan frowned, about to refuse, but Zhu Yuan interrupted her first, saying, "No! You have to drink this medicine."
Zhen Wanwan pouted, feeling wronged. She was terrified of Chinese medicine!
The smell alone was enough to make me want to vomit; I don't know how anyone could swallow it.
With Zhu Yuan's half-persuasion and half-coaxing, Zhen Wanwan pinched her nose and swallowed with difficulty.
"It's so bitter! Quick, give me a candied fruit!"
Zhen Wanwan gagged twice, then stretched out her hands and begged Zhu Yuan for some candied fruit.
As for why she knew that Zhu Yuan had bought candied fruit, it was all because of her understanding of Zhu Yuan.
Zhu Yuan chuckled softly, finding her ferocious expression incredibly endearing.
But he moved swiftly, pulling a packet of candied fruit from his pocket.
He picked up the largest candied fruit and fed it to Zhen Wanwan, and then gave her a glass of warm water to prevent her from choking if she ate too quickly.
After Zhen Wanwan tasted the bitterness in her mouth, she felt like she had come back to life.
Now she has time to think about other things. After returning yesterday, she was so tired that she lay down on the bed. She doesn't know how Zhuyuan will deal with those people's problems later.
The old man who led the group yesterday clearly held a high position in Mingzhou Prefecture.
If something happens to him, it will definitely alarm the authorities.
"Husband, how did you deal with those people? And what about those two we met yesterday? Did you find out their backgrounds?"
Zhu Yuan silently served Zhen Wanwan a cup of warm water to moisten her throat.
Watching her drink it, he said calmly, "The group of people yesterday were Yang Wang's moles planted in Mingzhou Prefecture. As for those two, I have found out that they are Yang Wang's confidants who are involved in the operation of his wealth here."
Zhu Yuan thought of his discovery last night, and a slight smile appeared on his usually indifferent face, which puzzled Zhen Wanwan.
The next second, he explained, "We found the money and some food they hadn't had time to transport out in the underground passage of the house we lived in yesterday."
Zhen Wanwan was a little surprised, but after she realized what was happening, her face lit up with a smile.
"What a disaster! Luckily we got this money, otherwise we would have been ruined!"
They are not short of food now, but they are short of money, because manufacturing weapons and paying soldiers are large expenditures.
Although Zhen Wanwan can support an army in terms of food and clothing at zero cost, there are many things that she doesn't have in her space.
