Chapter 468
After Doctor Feng changed to a different carriage, the group set off again, heading into the distance.
Night fell quickly, and they arrived at the next city, entering an inn.
Their group was so large that they booked the entire inn.
After dinner, Doctor Feng came to take Yunxi's pulse.
All of this caused his brows to furrow tightly.
Women are already weak after childbirth, and Yunxi was traveling the day after giving birth, so it's already quite remarkable that she's in such good condition now.
Doctor Feng sighed, ordered someone to fetch some herbs, decocted them, and sent them to Yunxi.
"I don't think the young lady is short of money?"
Yunxi nodded.
She took all the silver she had saved up over this period of time, which amounted to nearly ten thousand taels.
"Then you should eat something better," Doctor Feng said. "The young lady is too weak; it's not good to nourish her."
Upon hearing this, Jixiang quickly said, "Sir, please trouble you to see what the young lady would like to eat, and I will go and buy it!"
Doctor Feng nodded and mentioned a few things suitable for women to nourish themselves after childbirth. Jixiang quickly turned and left.
Duan Huaichuan was also worried: "Old sir, with Xi'er traveling so much, won't she develop some health problems?"
Even Doctor Feng couldn't guarantee that: "I can only say that I will do my best."
"...Thank you for your trouble, sir."
——
Luoyang, the Marquis's residence.
The nailed doors and windows were finally opened, and Shen Jun slowly walked into the Buwei Studio.
Shen Rang had not eaten or drunk anything for two days and was already very weak. However, when he saw Shen Jun come in, he still forced himself to sit up and looked straight at Shen Jun.
Meeting his gaze, Shen Jun snorted coldly: "I spoiled you too much before, which is why you were blinded by a woman and couldn't even tell what's important!"
Shen Rang smirked, his voice mocking: "When it comes to being pragmatic, who can compare to Father? Back when the Crown Prince was newly established, Father couldn't wait to join his ranks. He was truly astute."
"Do you think I'd willingly give up a perfectly good life to grovel before someone's family?" Shen Jun sneered. "You're still young! You don't know the hardships of shouldering the burdens of the Marquis's mansion!"
Shen Rang smiled and said, "Now that Father is a capable assistant under His Highness the Crown Prince, he has not only brought the whole family on His Highness's side, but also won over the new top scholar for His Highness. In the future, Father's status in front of His Highness the Crown Prince will probably rise even higher."
Speaking of Duan Huaichuan, Shen Jun couldn't help but frown.
Duan Huaichuan had disappeared along with the concubine in the mansion, and all his belongings had been packed away.
He went to such great lengths to win Duan Huaichuan over, only to find out that Duan Huaichuan was also an incompetent man whose mind was clouded by women!
Ironically, both her son and Duan Huaichuan were bewitched by the same woman!
Shen Jun turned around: "Go back and pack your things properly, rest for a couple of days, and then I will talk to His Highness the Crown Prince and ask him to let you return to the court."
Shen Rang was stunned.
Should he be brought back to the court?
Wasn't he impeached for favoring his concubine over his wife?
How did he return to the imperial court?
Suddenly realizing something, Shen Rang's face paled: "Where is Xi'er? What... what have you done to her?"
"Your aunt is quite the schemer. I haven't even done anything yet, and she's already run off with Duan Huaichuan!" Shen Jun was furious.
"By the way, why don't you go to Rongxi Hall and see... your son?"
After saying that, Shen Jun left without lingering.
No sooner had he left than Jing Yuan and Jing Er rushed in and helped Shen Rang up.
Shen Rang's face was pale, but his eyes were bloodshot: "What exactly happened these past two days?"
