Chapter 92 Why Do You Have to Leave Him?
Song Anlan patted Song Wan'er's head to comfort her, and said to Chunzhi in a gentle voice, "I'm sorry to have worried you these past few days..."
Chunzhi said, "I'm glad you're okay, brother."
Doctor Liang said that Song Anlan has recovered 20% to 30% now. If he takes good care of himself, he will have a long life.
There are three petals left of the resurrection flower. One petal can be given to the frail Song Wan'er, one petal can be given to Huo Zheng who has been invaded by cold, and the remaining petal should be kept well and taken out when needed in the future.
"That's the arrangement then."
Chunzhi nodded. This flower was originally what Huo Zheng had risked his life to find. Now that the cold air had entered his body, this flower was born in the extreme cold and was the best thing to drive away the cold.
Song Wan'er has been weak and sickly since birth, and is most afraid of cold. This time, the fresh flower will be of great use to her.
It’s great to have so many petals now.
Doctor Zhao and Doctor Liang said they would do it immediately.
Song Anlan had just recovered a little, but he was still tired and needed to rest more.
Song Wan'er sniffed, wiped her tears, and sensibly held back her tears. She told her brother to rest quickly, turned around, helped Chunzhi out, and left.
The sun is shining golden outside.
The servants were busy clearing the snow.
Song Wan'er supported Chunzhi and walked slowly under the corridor, and asked her in a low voice: "How is that noble man?"
Huo Zheng came back with the resurrection flower and collapsed in front of his brother's bed. Song Wan'er was quite frightened.
Chunzhi had Huo Zheng carried back to the courtyard and asked a doctor to check on him. Song Wan'er only knew that Huo Zheng was trying to get the cold energy from the flower back into his body. She was guarding her brother day and night and had no time to visit Huo Zheng. She could only ask Chunzhi how the man was doing.
Chunzhi didn't want to mention that she and Huo Zheng slept in the same bed last night. She only told Song Wan'er that Huo Zheng was extremely cold and she didn't know if this petal of the resurrection flower could help him recover.
Song Wan'er said, "If one petal is not enough, then give him two petals. If two petals are not enough, then use three petals. At most, I will give up my one petal."
Song Wan'er had read many storybooks, and the books said that one should repay a drop of kindness with a spring.
She was afraid of King Chang'an, but King Chang'an brought her brother back to life and saved his life, so he was the best man in the world.
Chunzhi didn't know how many petals of the Resurrection Flower would be needed to cure Huo Zheng's coldness, but two petals would be enough. It would be better to leave the petal to Song Wan'er.
"Sister..." Song Wan'er whispered, "I think the Prince of Chang'an may look cold and emotionless, but he's actually quite affectionate. Why do you have to leave him?"
If it were someone else, being favored by the prince and kept by his side as a concubine would be considered a great blessing.
Some people even try every possible means to hook up with such a noble person.
But Chunzhi didn't care at all and tried every means to leave.
Chunzhi was silent for a moment. "I'm just a commoner, but he's a nobleman. The difference in status is huge, and this is bound to end badly."
"That's true." Song Wan'er said, "Marriage is all about matching one's social status. Those royal sons always marry ladies from famous families..."
The love stories written in the storybooks are all about scholars and ladies, knights and rich girls. If a man of noble status falls in love with a commoner woman, or a lady from a famous family falls in love with a poor knight, no matter how grand and heroic the process is, the ending is destined to be a tragedy.
But Chunzhi didn't expect that after she left, Huo Zheng never gave up looking for her.
Now he has found the Resurrection Flower for Song Anlan, which has damaged his own body. Although it was not Chunzhi who forced Huo Zheng to find the Resurrection Flower, Huo Zheng did this for Chunzhi.
We don't want to owe each other anything, but we owe each other anyway.
Now Chunzhi doesn’t know how to treat Huo Zheng.
Haruji whispered, "I just want to live a peaceful life, but he... is destined to stir up trouble and live in the center of it."
The gap in identity alone is difficult to bridge.
Not to mention that the current emperor has not yet appointed a crown prince. As the emperor's most outstanding son, Huo Zheng's mother and supporters all hope that he will find a wife who can help him.
Chunzhi knew that she was of low status and could not help Huo Zheng in any way, and might even hold him back.
So even if Huo Zheng said he wanted to marry her, Chunzhi could not agree.
This is not just a matter between her and Huo Zheng.
Chunzhi thinks very clearly and sees very clearly.
Huo Zheng, who was the one who should have weighed the pros and cons, was confused at this juncture.
Chunzhi thought that maybe it was because she jumped into the river in front of Huo Zheng, which stimulated Huo Zheng.
If she had known this, she should not have left so decisively. Perhaps if she had adopted a gentler approach, Huo Zheng would not have been so obsessed with her and would have forgotten her long ago and returned to Beijing to be his prince.
But at that time, Chunzhi thought Huo Zheng treated her as a plaything. She was shocked and angry, and was afraid that she could not keep the baby in her belly, so she had to leave.
This has led to the current situation.
Song Wan'er actually didn't quite understand Chunzhi's persistence and sorrow, but even though she had never been to the deep palace and had never experienced the harem struggles, she knew that Chunzhi was not suitable for that kind of life.
Some people are greedy for wealth and want to be more prosperous.
Some people live in peace and contentment in a corner, just wanting a peaceful and smooth life.
Everyone wants something different and makes completely different choices.
Song Wan'er said, "Don't be afraid, sister. The Song residence will always be your home. As long as you want, you can live here for the rest of your life."
Chunzhi said: "Life is long, and no one knows what will happen in the future."
The two returned to the courtyard while talking.
As soon as Chunzhi entered the room, she saw Huo Zheng wearing a fox fur coat, leaning against the door waiting for her.
She was stunned for a moment and stopped.
Song Wan'er spotted Huo Zheng immediately. After helping Chunzhi stand, she stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Thank you for finding the Resurrection Flower for my brother. My brother has survived, and there are still three petals left, perfect for driving away the cold..."
Song Wan'er talked a lot.
The first time I saw Huo Zheng was on a mountain road where a carriage was speeding down. Huo Zheng had amazing arm strength and he caught the out-of-control horse with one hand.
The second time I saw Huo Zheng was at my brother and Chunzhi's wedding banquet. At that time, he brought people to grab the bride, and he looked very imposing.
No matter what time, he looked tall and healthy.
And now... his body was cold and his lips were pale. Even in this state, Huo Zheng didn't just lie down on the couch, but stood in front of the door waiting for Chunzhi.
When Song Wan'er saw the noble man in this state, she felt a little sorry for him.
Seeing that Huo Zheng had no interest in listening to her, she stopped talking immediately. "I'm going to go see how Doctor Zhao and the others use Huishenghua as medicine. You guys, do whatever you want. I'm leaving first."
After saying that, Song Wan'er turned and left.
Before Chunzhi could say anything, the man had already walked away.
For a moment, Chunzhi and Huo Zheng were the only two people left in the courtyard.
Chunzhi turned around and prepared to go back to the house.
"Cough cough cough..." Huo Zheng, who had been silent all this time, suddenly started coughing...
