After seeing the doctor off, the two remained silent for a long time.
Looking at Zhu Yuan's gloomy face, Zhen Wanwan felt a panic in her heart.
This was the first time Zhu Yuan had ever shown a dark face in front of her, and it was actually quite frightening.
Zhen Wanwan unconsciously shrank back, unaware that this scene had pierced Zhu Yuan's heart.
He had just been thinking about something unpleasant, which is why his emotions were showing.
Unexpectedly, Zhen Wanwan noticed his emotions and deliberately kept her distance from him.
Zhu Yuan was both hurt and afraid. He knew himself best what kind of person he was.
However, his wife was unaware of how tyrannical he truly was; if she had known, she probably would have left him.
This is a consequence that Zhu Yuan absolutely cannot accept.
Having figured all this out, Zhu Yuan quickly regained his usual expression, gazing at Zhen Wanwan with a cool yet gentle gaze.
"Don't worry, my lady. Wait a few more days and I will definitely find a famous doctor to treat you."
The Hua family has already arrived in Anqing Prefecture, and he has plenty of ways to get them to willingly save people.
Zhen Wanwan blinked, as if the sinister side of Zhu Yuan was just a figment of her imagination.
She opened her eyes and looked at Zhu Yuan with a puzzled expression. Seeing that he was the same as always, she breathed a sigh of relief.
She probably didn't sleep well last night, and she seems a bit dazed today.
When it comes to her illness, Zhen Wanwan isn't worried at all.
She had clearly heard what the doctor said: the well water in the space had a conditioning effect on her body.
Now her health has almost fully recovered, and as long as she continues to use well water, I believe she can live to be a hundred years old!
"Husband, don't worry. Didn't the doctor just say that my illness is almost cured? Given time, I might even live to be over a hundred years old!"
Zhen Wanwan teased him, smiling as she looked at Zhu Yuan, wanting him to see that she was in good health.
Looking at his wife's rosy complexion, Zhu Yuan fell silent.
His wife certainly didn't look sick; if it weren't for a doctor's diagnosis, no one would have known she was ill.
But just to be on the safe side, he still wanted the Hua family to come and take a look, otherwise he would never feel at ease.
"It's always good to be careful in everything. My wife, please don't do any physical labor these days. If there's anything important, leave it to me to do."
As he spoke, Zhu Yuan slowly sat down on the edge of the bed and tucked the blanket around Zhen Wanwan.
"For now, all you need to do is get some sleep. We'll talk about everything when you wake up!"
Seeing that Zhen Wanwan was about to speak, Zhu Yuan placed his finger to her lips to stop her from continuing.
Zhen Wanwan was still thinking about the foreign woman he had just mentioned.
This is very important to her. If this person really is from another time, then she must know about the things in her department store.
Therefore, ignoring Zhu Yuan's disapproving look, Zhen Wanwan asked, "Husband, can you tell me now what happened to that foreign woman? Where is she now?"
Judging from the timeline of the original work, the female protagonist's aunt is the emperor's concubine. The female protagonist is about one year old now, so her aunt is only fifteen or sixteen years old.
She was at the perfect age to get married. The Third Prince was five years older than the female lead's aunt, so he was only around twenty years old.
The foreign woman was probably about the same age as her.
A strange look flashed across Zhu Yuan's eyes, and he asked seemingly casually, "Why is Madam so curious about that woman?"
He had investigated Zhen Wanwan before; her background was clean and simple, and she grew up in Lijia Village.
The only time I went on a long trip was when I met him in the county town.
There is absolutely no way they could know anyone else.
Zhen Wanwan suddenly became alert; she needed to answer this question carefully.
After all, the original owner of this body was a country girl who had never traveled far from home.
It's impossible to say that it knows any incredibly important people.
Zhen Wanwan suddenly relaxed, glanced at Zhu Yuan with dissatisfaction, and said reproachfully, "I'm cooped up at home all day and don't know many words. I just wanted to find some fun. It just so happens that I'm curious about the woman my husband mentioned."
A glint of understanding flashed in Zhu Yuan's eyes. He smiled slightly and said, "It's my fault! If my wife wants to know, I'll tell you..."
"Later, the Third Prince presented the late Emperor with many innovative methods of governing the country..."
Thinking back to those days, the Third Prince was very prestigious, and even the Crown Prince had to give him some leeway in the entire court.
"It wasn't until news spread in Kyoto that these methods were passed down to the Third Prince by that foreign woman that the late Emperor was furious and punished the Third Prince with half a year's salary."
"Then, not long after, the woman was placed under house arrest in the backyard by the Third Prince, and gradually, the rumors about her disappeared."
Zhen Wanwan was engrossed in gossip when she was suddenly told that the story was poorly written, which immediately put her in a bad mood.
Just as she was about to say something, Zhu Yuan continued, "But as far as I know, that foreign woman is not in the Third Prince's harem!"
As for where they went, Zhuyuan only received a little bit of information.
"According to my investigation, the foreign woman wrote a letter of divorce to the Third Prince, and then ran away on her own despite the Third Prince's objections."
Zhen Wanwan was stunned. Divorcing her husband was indeed something a time-traveling female protagonist would do.
Is their story just over?
Shouldn't they continue their love-hate relationship?
"My lord, do you know where that woman's homeland is? What is her name?"
Zhu Yuan shook his head, as if he remembered something, and said with a serious expression, "She once said at a banquet that she came from China, a very powerful and free country."
Zhen Wanwan's face fell; she was now certain that the foreign woman was the female protagonist from another world.
I never expected to run into someone from my hometown in this fictional world.
However, the scripts they received were completely opposite.
She had barely transmigrated when she started getting intimate with a prince, leading to a heart-wrenching and epic love story.
She was originally an unmarried, pregnant woman who starved to death due to famine and was unable to get married.
She was a refugee fleeing famine, enduring hardship and toil along the way, and eventually had a child.
The only advantage is that there is space.
Zhu Yuan had been watching Zhen Wanwan's expression closely, noticing that her face was turning pale and then purple.
He gently smoothed the furrowed brow of Zhen Wanwan with concern.
"The worst thing to do when you're sick is to overthink. My wife, you don't need to care so much about other people's affairs. We would never be like them!"
Upon hearing this, Zhen Wanwan smiled, then feigned anger and lightly punched Zhu Yuan's chest, saying in a muffled voice, "You are the husband I married, how could I let you go?"
Clearly, Zhen Wanwan sees herself as the heartless and ungrateful Third Prince.
Zhu Yuan wasn't annoyed. He looked at her very gently and said, "Madam, you must remember what you said. No matter what happens in the future, you will never abandon me."
Hopefully, when she learns about his past misdeeds in the future, she won't despise or hate him.
Besides her, there was no one else who was the most important person in his life. Remember what you're saying now.
