Chapter 324 Strange Disease
After not seeing her for two months, Honeysuckle was no longer as thin as when we first met, looking as if she could be blown away by the wind. Her facial features became more beautiful, and her eyes became brighter. After changing her appearance, she looked just like a teenager, and even Qingye couldn't tell that she was a girl.
"Princess..." Honeysuckle was a little embarrassed by the princess's action and couldn't help but ask, "Does the prince know that you are so skilled in this kind of action?"
Hearing this, Chunzhi's smile widened. "He knows how? So what if he doesn't know?"
Honeysuckle thought about it and felt that there really wasn't anything she could do.
Chunzhi's hand was raised for a while and felt a little tired, so she put it down. She asked Rendong to sit by the window.
Honeysuckle brought the mung bean soup to Chunzhi and said, "This is the mung bean soup I made. I added brown sugar, ginger, and licorice. It can relieve summer heat and thirst, and soothe the five internal organs and calm the spirit. Please have a taste, Princess."
Honeysuckle originally wanted to go outside the city to welcome the prince and princess, but ever since she disguised herself as a man, she has been dressed as a boy. It was not convenient for her to stand with those ladies, nor was it convenient for her to go up and talk to the princess. So she simply came here first and prepared some cooling pills and boiled some summer-relief soup for the princess and the others.
Chunzhi pulled Rendong to sit down, "You are so thoughtful, of course I want to try it."
While drinking mung bean soup, Chunzhi asked Rendong how he had been doing these days.
"I'm fine, and I have to thank you, Princess."
As Honeysuckle was about to stand up and salute, she was held back by Chunzhi.
"Just speak nicely and don't bow all the time." Chunzhi said, and praised her for the excellent mung bean soup, which was better than any she had tasted elsewhere.
Honeysuckle then told Chunzhi about the recipe for making mung bean soup, and also mentioned that she had stayed in the military camp for a long time disguised as a man and had saved many people. The medical skills she had learned from her grandfather since childhood were put to good use, and her medical skills had also improved a lot because of saving patients over the past few days.
Chunzhi saw that Rendong's eyes were getting brighter as she spoke, so she knew that she must be living well these days since she had left the person who made her worried.
However, on the day Chunzhi and Huo Zheng left the capital, Huo Yan chased them out of the city, as if he would not give up until he found Rendong.
Chunzhi was a little hesitant for a moment, wondering whether to tell Rendong about Huo Yan's recent situation.
Until Honeysuckle said a lot, he suddenly felt like he wanted to say something but stopped.
Seeing this, Chunzhi said softly, "Do you want to ask how Huo Yan is doing?"
Honeysuckle didn't expect Chunzhi to see through her thoughts at a glance. She was a little flustered and said quickly, "I, I... I don't want to ask him anything. I just want to ask, is his injury healed?"
Chunzhi didn't know what kind of bond there was between Rendong and Huo Yan that made Rendong both afraid of Huo Yan and concerned about his injury.
Maybe some women are naturally kind-hearted and will save someone to the end. Although she betrayed Huo Yan's whereabouts in order to protect herself, she still felt that what she did was not right, and she felt guilty and could not forget it.
And the reason why Huo Yan insisted on finding Rendong might be more than just revenge.
The bonds between people are inherently complex and difficult to describe.
When love between men and women is involved, it becomes even more difficult to sort out.
Seeing Chunzhi looking at her with complicated eyes, Rendong gave a somewhat stiff smile, "Princess, just treat me as a doctor who is worried about the injured and sick. He is the first seriously injured person I treated. I want to know if his injuries have healed..."
Chunzhi said, "It's not well taken care of."
Honeysuckle was stunned for a moment, "How could it not be raised well?"
When they were in the bamboo house, they were short of money and medicine, but she tried her best to cure Huo Yan's injuries.
Isn’t he the Ninth Prince?
After regaining his identity and returning to the capital, there are so many famous doctors who will treat him. How could they not cure his injuries?
Honeysuckle didn't say these words out loud, but they were all written in her eyes.
Chunzhi understood it at a glance.
She said slowly, "Huo Yan's injuries were almost healed, but the emperor wanted him to marry the Princess of Xiling. He refused, angering the emperor and was punished by being made to kneel. It happened to rain heavily that day, and he knelt in the torrential rain all night. His injuries and illnesses were so severe that he almost lost his life."
"he……"
For a moment, Rendong didn't know what to say to Huo Yan.
She knew Huo Yan had a bad temper and acted recklessly.
But she never expected that this person would dare to disobey the emperor like this.
Chunzhi looked at Rendong and saw that she frowned because of the news about Huo Yan. She then said slowly, "Fortunately, the imperial doctors treated him in time. His life is not in danger now, but his mental illness is difficult to cure."
"Heart disease?" Honeysuckle asked in confusion, "When did he develop a heart disease?"
With Huo Yan's bad temper, it's good enough that he doesn't make others sick. How could he have such a mental illness?
Chunzhi said slowly: "His heart disease is a bit strange."
"How weird is it?"
As a doctor, it is really difficult for Honeysuckle to resist hearing about strange diseases.
If the princess talked about other things about Huo Yan, she would not ask any more questions.
But when it comes to the "strange disease", her mouth moves faster than her brain.
After asking this question, Rendong was stunned.
Chunzhi looked at Rendong and said slowly, "Huo Yan has contracted a strange disease that requires him to find someone."
When Honeysuckle heard this, she immediately understood the meaning of the princess' words, and for a moment, confusion, panic and helplessness all swept over her heart.
Ren Dong couldn't understand why Huo Yan just wouldn't let her go, and she choked up and said, "Does he really have to kill me?"
"I think he came looking for you, but he didn't necessarily want to kill you."
Although Chunzhi was not sure what was going on in Huo Yan's mind, she could still guess a little.
Huo Yan was arrogant and domineering, and had been loved by everyone since he was a child. When he met Ren Dong, it was the most embarrassing time in Huo Yan's life. He might have thought about killing the person who had seen his most embarrassing side at first, so as to erase those bad memories.
But he didn't kill Honeysuckle in the end, which shows that Honeysuckle was different from others to him.
Once a man feels that a woman is different from others, he is most likely attracted to her.
However, Huo Yan was very likely to be tempted without realizing it, so he had been shouting that he would kill Ren Dong once he found her.
He keeps saying he wants revenge.
Said he would never let her go.
Honeysuckle was scared to death and would rather disguise herself as a man and hide in the military camp than be found by him.
However, matters of love are the most unpredictable, so Chunzhi couldn't be too sure. In addition, Huo Yan had a bad temper, and she didn't want Rendong to gamble her life on Huo Yan's feelings.
So, Chunzhi said to Rendong, "You don't have to worry too much. Huo Yan has been ordered by the emperor to stay at home to recuperate. He can't leave the capital for the time being. Even if he really finds his way to Xizhou in the future, the prince and I will protect you and will definitely not let him cause you any trouble."
"Thank you, Princess. Honeysuckle is grateful."
When Honeysuckle heard the princess say this, she felt much more at ease.
I just hope Huo Yan will forget her sooner and never come to Xizhou again in this life.
