Upon arriving at the palace, the imperial physician carefully examined Lin Han's ankle before getting up.
"Your Majesty has only suffered a sprained ankle; she just needs to rest and recuperate," the imperial physician replied respectfully to Wei Yuchen.
"Alright, I understand. You may leave." After realizing it wasn't serious, Wei Yuchen dismissed the imperial physicians, sat down beside Lin Han's bed, and applied an ice pack to her feet.
"How could you be so careless? You managed to twist your ankle while punching someone," Wei Yucheng said with concern, looking at Lin Han's swollen ankle.
"It's not my fault. She came out so suddenly that I didn't have time to react, and that's how I got infected. I didn't want to either," Lin Han said helplessly, feeling the coolness on her feet.
"But she didn't get away with it either; I beat her to a pulp." Lin Han said to Wei Yuchen with great pride as he thought about his masterpiece.
"How dare you say that? Can she compare to you? Now you're injured and can't walk. Are you comfortable? You've hurt yourself as much as you hurt the enemy." Wei Yuchen got angry when she heard Lin Han's proud tone and quickly lectured her.
"Alright, alright, I won't do it again next time. I promise I won't hurt myself in a fight." Seeing that Wei Yuchen was about to launch into his long-winded speech again, Lin Han quickly stopped him and promised that she wouldn't do it again.
"Do you want a next time?" Wei Yuchen said to her in an unfriendly tone.
Lin Han quickly changed her mind, saying, "No, no, no, it won't happen again."
Wei Yuchen then let Lin Han go and focused on applying the compress to her feet, asking from time to time, "Is it cold?"
He stopped applying ice to Lin Han's feet only after the bag of ice had almost melted, and Lin Han finally felt much better.
Looking at the busy Wei Yuchen, Lin Han felt a warmth in her heart.
"Alright, stop working and come rest. You've had a long day." Lin Han said to Wei Yuchen.
After washing Lin Han's face clean, Wei Yuchen returned to bed, carefully covered her with a blanket, and then held Lin Han as she fell asleep.
Although the two did not hold a wedding ceremony, they were already a proper engaged couple witnessed by heaven and earth, so no one said anything or dared to say anything as they slept in the same bed.
Before dawn, Wei Yuchen had to get up for the morning court session. Because Lin Han had difficulty walking, Wei Yuchen could only dress himself, tuck Lin Han in while she was sleeping, and then leave.
When Lin Han woke up, a wooden wheelchair was already placed beside her bed, while Wei Yuchen was handling official business nearby.
Upon seeing Lin Han wake up, Wei Yuchen quickly stepped forward and carefully helped her into a wheelchair.
"How does your foot feel now? Is it still as painful?" Wei Yuchen asked her considerately.
Lin Han moved her foot slightly. Although it still hurt, it was better than yesterday, so she shook her head decisively.
Seeing this, Wei Yucheng was relieved and pushed her to wash up and have a meal.
For the next month, Lin Han lived a life of being waited on hand and foot.
In the past month, Lin Han felt like she had gained a lot of weight.
"I'm fine now. I can walk and jump. Look, look, aren't I very agile?"
Lin Han jumped around in the room to prove to Wei Yuchen that her legs were really fine.
Seeing that Lin Han was jumping around without any problems, and with the imperial physician saying that she was almost fully recovered, Wei Yucheng agreed that she could move around freely.
Upon hearing that Wei Yuchen had agreed to let her move around, she almost burst into tears of joy.
Aside from the initial pain that made it impossible for her to walk, she was able to get out of bed and walk later on. Although it still hurt, her foot had basically recovered by the second half of the month.
But Wei Yuchen was worried that her foot wasn't fully healed. As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to recover from a broken bone, so he basically didn't allow Lin Han to walk for long periods of time, which made her very frustrated.
“There are people even more frustrated than you. Jia Yan can only lie in bed every day now, and the injury on her butt hasn’t fully healed yet,” Xiao Meng said to Lin Han.
All of this was thanks to the powder Lin Han had sprinkled back then. That powder slowed down Jia Yan's wound healing, which meant she had to suffer a bit more, since she had such a foul mouth.
