Chapter 308 I'll Wait for You
Yuzhu was silent for a long time before she spoke: "I will talk to him about the divorce. You should eat well and take good care of your injuries."
"Okay." Gu Yuanjia responded in a hoarse voice, with a hint of smile in his eyes.
Seeing him like this, Yuzhu became even more upset. She said softly, "Then you rest first. I'll have someone prepare some food and take a look at the new prescription from the imperial physician."
Gu Yuanjia looked at her with a gloomy look in his eyes, "I'll wait for you."
Mr. Gu's words are a double entendre.
He was waiting for Yuzhu to give him an answer after she filed for divorce with that man.
He was also waiting for Yuzhu to go out and do something else to calm down, and then come back to him.
Yuzhu nodded, then walked out the door and told the maid to prepare some food and send it over. She then went to Chunzhi to ask for the new prescriptions written by the two imperial doctors today.
When Yuzhu found Chunzhi, Chunzhi had already asked Cui'er to get the medicine and boil it. Huo Zheng was keeping one of the imperial physicians at the Chang'an Palace so that he could check on Master Gu's injuries at any time.
Doctor Fan took the initiative and said, "Last time, Doctor Zhou stayed overnight at the palace. This time, I will stay."
Huo Zheng said, "It would be great if Doctor Fan is willing to stay at the mansion."
After they finished talking, Doctor Zhou left first. Huo Zheng and Doctor Fan walked out while talking about Mr. Gu's injuries and condition.
Yuzhu met the two men head-on and bowed, "Greetings, Your Majesty, and Doctor Fan."
"The princess is inside, go ahead."
Huo Zheng knew that Yuzhu was looking for Chunzhi, so he said this to her directly.
"Yes." Yuzhu responded and went inside.
Huo Zheng and Doctor Fan continued to discuss Mr. Gu's injuries and condition as they walked forward.
When the maid outside the door saw Yuzhu coming, she went inside to announce, "Princess, Sister Yuzhu is here."
"Let her in quickly."
Chunzhi had copied a new prescription early on. She knew that Yuzhu would definitely want to review it. She originally planned to send it to her after talking to the imperial physician, but she didn't expect Yuzhu to come so quickly.
Yuzhu responded and went inside. She walked up to Chunzhi and called out, "Sister."
"You came at the right time. I was just about to send it to you." Chunzhi handed the prescription to Yuzhu, "Take a look."
Yuzhu took the prescription and looked at it. She had already memorized the previous prescription in her mind, and while looking at the new one, she compared it secretly.
Chunzhi had her maid bring up the freshly cooked blood bird's nest porridge and personally handed it to Yuzhu, saying gently, "You've been working so hard to take care of Master Gu these past few days. His injury suddenly worsened, which must have scared you quite a bit. I had someone make some blood bird's nest porridge for you to drink. Don't just focus on taking care of Master Gu and exhaust yourself."
Yuzhu actually didn't have much appetite, but seeing Chunzhi's eyes full of concern, she took it and slowly drank two sips.
Chunzhi asked the maids to leave and pulled Yuzhu to sit down. "After eating, you should go back and rest. You must have been frightened by Gu Yuanjia this time, right?"
Yuzhu drank the warm porridge and felt a little sad because of her sister's care.
Gu Yuanjia's worsening injuries had already frightened her to the point of losing her soul.
But what Mr. Gu said after he woke up made her even more confused.
Yuzhu's marriage to her cousin Ji was a fake one, and they had originally agreed to divorce when they found a suitable opportunity.
But she thought that even if they divorced, it had nothing to do with Gu Yuanjia.
Now it has become that Gu Yuanjia insists that she divorce her cousin.
Yuzhu was feeling confused and found it difficult to talk about this to Chunzhi.
When Chunzhi saw this, she knew that Yuzhu was worried.
This girl looks gentle and quiet, but she has been very brave since she was a child.
When her mother was seriously ill, she took the initiative to sell herself into slavery in exchange for money to treat her mother's illness.
Later, when she had a child, she had a fake marriage with her cousin and gave birth to Nian'er.
Chunzhi said gently, "Yuzhu, if you don't want to continue taking care of Master Gu, that's fine. I'll find another way. Don't make it too hard on yourself."
"No." Yuzhu whispered, "I want to take care of him."
Chunzhi saw that she seemed to be hesitant to speak, so she didn't urge her. Instead, her eyes became more gentle as she waited quietly for her next words.
Yuzhu struggled to form her words and told her sister, "Gu Yuanjia—after waking up, he suddenly made it clear. He wants me to divorce my cousin."
"Did he tell you clearly?"
Haruji was obviously a little surprised.
In her opinion, Gu Yuanjia was a very scheming person, and he always looked very cunning in everything he did.
Chunzhi could see that Gu Yuanjia was interested in Yuzhu, but she didn't know to what extent he liked her.
A young man from a noble family with a good background and good looks like Gu Yuanjia probably has very few people or things he wants but cannot get.
For Gu Yuanjia, jade beads may be the extremely rare "unobtainable" thing in life.
So Chunzhi never thought of bringing them together.
Because matters of love are the most unpredictable.
There are many things that we like today and dislike tomorrow.
Chunzhi just wants Yuzhu to live a good life and doesn't want to interfere too much with her choices.
Now Yuzhu is deeply trapped in this and distressed about it, and as her sister, she cannot turn a blind eye.
So Chunzhi said to Yuzhu, "You and your cousin originally had a fake marriage for Nian'er. Even if you haven't figured out what to do with Gu Yuanjia yet, it's better to divorce first."
She said, "After all, you're going to Xizhou with us, and you might not see your cousin for several years. Divorce is inevitable. Right now, Gu Yuanjia is just interfering and urging you to do this quickly. You don't have to think too much about it."
At Ji's cousin's age, there is no time to waste. Both of them have become free and are getting married.
Chunzhi said that if Yuzhu felt guilty towards her cousin, she would secretly ask someone to find a good marriage for her cousin from the Ji family.
She addressed Yuzhu's concerns one by one, speaking slowly and not urging her to make a decision about what to do with Gu Yuanjia at this time.
Haruji said, "No matter what you choose, I will help you."
"elder sister……"
Yuzhu was so moved that she couldn't express it in words. She reached out and hugged Chunzhi.
After hugging for a long time, Yuzhu finally spoke again: "Then I'll have someone deliver a message to my cousin and discuss the divorce with him in the next two days."
"Okay." Chunzhi tucked a strand of Yuzhu's hair behind her ear and said softly, "Drink your porridge first."
After Yuzhu finished her porridge and left Chunzhi, she asked someone to pass a message to her cousin Ji, asking him to come out of the palace to see her when he was free.
In the evening, there was a response from the palace.
The cousin of the Ji family said that Princess Xiling will hold a martial arts competition to choose a husband at the Phoenix Tower in two days, and he has been ordered to guard the Phoenix Tower. If Yuzhu has any urgent matters, she can go to Zhuque Street to find him at noon tomorrow and talk about it when they meet.
The next morning, after Yuzhu had given Gu Yuanjia the medicine, she said to him, "I have to go out of the house today. Someone else will look after you for half a day. Please don't send them away."
"Okay." Gu Yuanjia guessed what she was going to do, and was particularly gentle and easy to talk to today.
Even taking medicine is very straightforward.
He looked at Yuzhu and said, "I will wait for good news here."
