The next day, Ji Chenglin didn't eat much at lunch.
Han Shu knew that the prince was probably waiting for Miss Ning's pear blossom cake. After all, he had been talking until his mouth was dry. Although the prince did not respond, he did not refuse either.
When it was almost time for dinner, Ji Chenglin simply waved his hand and stopped eating.
Han Shu thought to himself, what is Miss Ning doing? He said a lot of good things to her, but she herself is not doing well. But it seems that the prince is obviously waiting for the pear blossom cake.
He used the excuse of going to the bathroom to go to Qingshan Temple in front to find Miss Ning. He had to ask her carefully. He couldn't change his mind so quickly.
When I got outside and saw Caiyue decocting medicine, I realized that Miss Ning had a high fever since she came back and had been in a coma until now. Several doses of Fenghanling were of no use to her.
Han Shu turned around and ran to the small wooden house in the back mountain where Ji Chenglin lived, wanting to ask An Jiu, one of the secret guards, to treat Miss Ning.
Ji Chenglin nodded in agreement without taking his eyes off the book. After Han Shu left with the disguised An Jiu, he didn't turn a page of the book in his hand for a long time.
He stayed too long to visit his mother's grave this time, and it was time for him to go back and deal with government affairs.
That night, he appeared quietly in front of Danruo's bed, touched her forehead, and found that her temperature had gone down.
It was his negligence. She had been fasting for three years and was weak. How could she not get sick after being in the snow and ice for such a long time?
Dan Ruo sensed Ji Chenglin's breath, turned over and deliberately pressed Ji Chenglin's hand.
Although her fever this time seemed severe, it actually completely tempered her body, allowing her to be closer to her original appearance and physique.
Ji Chenglin was afraid of waking Danruo up, so he didn't dare to pull his hand away. It was not until dawn, when his hand became numb from the pressure, that he waited for Danruo to turn over and quietly left.
Returning to the cabin, he looked at Han Shu, who was smiling comfortably. He passed by and slapped Han Shu on the shoulder.
"Don't think too much, let's go back home."
Halfway through the journey, Ji Chenglin gave instructions to Han Shu.
Every day, he had the secret guards secretly deliver three meals a day to Miss Ning in the name of her grandmother, and found a famous chef from the capital to keep at the foot of the mountain to cook more meat dishes.
Replace the charcoal with silver charcoal and offer more, and make a few monk robes stuffed with animal fur and send them over to the temple.
Miss Ning's grandmother is the old lady of the General Zhengxi's Mansion. She has been at the border for a long time and is very old. I'm afraid she will never return to the capital in this lifetime.
The prince had come up with a good excuse, and Han Shu had to applaud him.
--
During Danruo's convalescence, he ate carefully matched meals every day and recovered quickly.
Caiyue was filled with emotion: "Thanks to Old Madam Wang for still caring about her granddaughter."
Dan Ruo smiled without saying anything and planned to start developing the pill. She must find a medium to cure Ji Chenglin. After three days of seclusion in the house, she walked to the small wooden house in the back mountain with a black pill.
The secret guard knew the importance of this medicine and personally delivered it to the prince.
After returning to the palace, Ji Chenglin devoted himself to heavy official duties. At night, he would repeatedly think of that night in the mountains. When he received the pill, he actually had a little hope in his heart, thinking that he might also receive God's blessing.
Han Shu called all the doctors in the mansion over, and after careful discussion,
"Your Highness has found such a great master. This recipe is truly amazing, especially the Snow Queen Grass, which is the perfect finishing touch."
Ji Chenglin never thought that Ning Danruo, a girl in the boudoir, could have such talent. After the doctors confirmed it, he took the pill with water. It tasted a little bitter at first, but soon turned into a warm current flowing to his lower body.
When Ji Chenglin's aunt, Madam Li, heard the news, she rushed over and brought a beautiful maid with her.
"Chenglin, please try it quickly. If you get better, even if I die now, I will still have the face to see your mother."
Ji Chenglin's mother was extremely beautiful and had been married to a scholar at an early age. Unexpectedly, she met the late emperor who was on a secret visit.
The late emperor fell in love with her at first sight, so he forcibly brought her into the palace and made her a noble concubine, and executed the scholar and the son he had born.
After my mother entered the palace, she was depressed, so the late emperor brought her younger sister into the palace to accompany her. Because my mother had complicated feelings towards Ji Chenglin, Ji Chenglin was mostly raised by his aunt when he was a child.
When Ji Chenglin was six years old, his aunt left the palace and married the censor Li. Li had passed away a few years ago. His aunt had only one daughter and was often bullied by the clan for having no son to inherit. So she lived in Ji Chenglin's mansion and often helped with housework.
This was the first time in years that Ji Chenglin saw his aunt so happy. He couldn't bear to spoil her fun, so he kept the maid.
Soon, only Ji Chenglin and the maid were left in the study. When the maid saw Ji Chenglin standing coldly in front of the window, she knew that this was a rare opportunity. Although the regent had a cold temper, if she became the regent's first woman, she would be in great fortune.
She took off her outer robe, leaving only her pink chest-length skirt. She stepped forward in a gentle voice, "Your Highness, I will help you change your clothes."
Ji Chenglin felt disgusted and immediately waved away her hand that was about to touch him. He said sternly, "Put on your clothes and get out."
He took the horse and walked out. When he reached the gate of Qingshan Temple, he didn't know why he came there. His heart was clamoring to see her.
The thick black night engulfed his figure, and the cold wind woke up his mind. He really had no feeling there. So many doctors had seen it. How could a girl who had studied medical books for several years be able to cure it? If he acted impulsively, he would be the one who would be embarrassed.
He was about to turn around and go back home when he saw two people sneaking into Ning Danruo's courtyard. One of them was blowing aphrodisiac incense into the house, and the other was using a knife to break the door bolt.
He quietly appeared behind the two men and knocked them down with a knife.
"Who?" Danruo's panicked voice came from the room.
