Chapter 80 Shelter
"Zhi Nu!" Liu Qingqing exclaimed and immediately reached out to help Zhi Nu.
"Take the others away first." Chen Yuan called the secret guards and helped Zhinu onto the carriage.
In Huichun Hall, Liu Qingqing looked at Zhinu who was wrapped like a dumpling, her eyes red from crying.
Elder Chen put down the gauze in his hand and bowed to Shen Yuan, "Master, don't worry, he is fine."
After saying this, he stared at Zhinu's face, stroked his beard and began to think.
Shen Yuan looked at Old Chen and asked, "Can his face still be healed?"
Mr. Chen would never waste his time on something that he couldn't cure.
Liu Qingqing stopped crying, her misty eyes full of anticipation, "Can it be cured? Zhinu was burned trying to save me."
Old Chen looked at Chen Yuan, and Chen Yuan nodded to him.
He turned his gaze to Liu Qingqing and said, "It can be cured, but it will take some suffering."
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Liu Qingqing's face.
Mr. Chen retreated.
Chen Yuan looked at Liu Qingqing and said, "Since it can be cured, don't leave any regrets."
Liu Qingqing was silent for a while, and suddenly with a "bang", she knelt in front of Shen Yuan.
"Madam, Qingqing knows this is not right, but I still want to ask you to take Zhinu in and hide him."
Chen Yuan's expression was calm; Liu Qingqing's words were pretty much what she had expected.
"I know this will cause trouble for Madam, but I won't ask Madam to help me in vain. I know Madam likes jade, and I, your humble daughter, also like jade. I will definitely give Madam my entire collection."
Shen Yuan looked at Liu Qingqing, and after a while she spoke, "Do you like him?"
Liu Qingqing's ears blushed, and she neither shook her head nor nodded.
What's the point of her liking him? She will marry the Fourth Prince in the end.
Thinking of this, tears started to flow again.
Seeing her crying, Chen Yuan suddenly felt a headache. "Don't cry. I promise you, when his injury is healed, let him go to Yuhang to help, and he can also avoid the Fourth Prince."
Liu Qingqing's face lit up with joy, and Chen Yuan stepped forward to help her up.
The door was pushed open at this moment.
Gu Huailing walked in quickly.
It was a May day, and he actually brought a cool breeze.
"Madam." Gu Huailing walked up to Chen Yuan and looked her up and down.
Shen Yuan looked at him a little embarrassedly, "Husband, why are you here?"
Liu Qingqing stood aside, looking at Gu Huailing with wide eyes in surprise.
I didn't expect that the Prime Minister has such a gentle side.
"I'm glad Madam is alright. I went to pick her up and replied. I learned that she was on her way here. What happened?"
Chen Yuan briefly told Gu Huailing what happened today.
Gu Huailing looked at the man lying on the bed.
Gu Huailing, who usually keeps his emotions under control, suddenly changed his expression when he saw the man on the bed.
Shen Yuan frowned, and Liu Qingqing was startled.
"Who is he?" Gu Huailing asked in a deep voice.
Liu Qingqing was so scared that she stammered, "He, he is my groom."
Gu Huailing's expression returned to calmness. He was just being overly suspicious.
Just now, I actually mistook the man on the bed for the Crown Prince who had been missing for many years!
On the way back in the carriage, Chen Yuan looked at Gu Huailing, "Husband? Are you worried about something?"
Gu Huailing withdrew his thoughts and looked at her, "I was just thinking of an old friend."
Chen Yuan seemed to be thinking about something. "Because of that groom? He offended the Fourth Prince. Miss Liu asked me to take him in. Once his face is healed, the Fourth Prince won't be able to recognize him. I want to keep him in Yuhang."
Gu Huailing held her close to him and asked, "When did you become friends with Miss Liu?"
"She helped me in my previous life, and I like her very much."
Gu Huailing's hands tightened unconsciously.
"What do you think, my husband?" Shen Yuan asked softly.
Gu Huailing thought of the similarity of that moment just now and said softly, "Madam, it's up to you to decide."
After returning home, Shen Yuan took a shower and walked out refreshed.
She looked at Gu Huailing who was reclining on the bed and asked, "Sir, are you not handling official business today?"
These days, she and Gu Huailing have been very busy.
Gu Huailing sympathized with Chen Yuan and wore plain clothes almost every night.
He shifted his gaze to Shen Yuan, his eyes gradually deepening.
He stood up, walked towards Shen Yuan, took her hand and extinguished the candle.
In the dim light, the woman's sobs were intermittent, and the charming atmosphere on the bed reached its peak.
"Husband, be gentler..." Chen Yuan's voice was intermittent.
The moonlight poured in through the gauze curtain.
Gu Huailing looked at Chen Yuan's wet eyes and sweaty cheeks and asked lovingly, "Is this okay?"
Shen Yuan couldn't stand him like this and didn't even have the strength to push him away.
The corners of her eyes were red and her fingertips were clenched tightly.
I was thinking about it just before I fell asleep.
No matter how busy I am in the future, I will never let Gu Huailing go hungry.
When it was dawn, Gu Huailing got up.
Shen Yuan also remembered that he had held her down, and he kissed Shen Yuan's soft white cheek.
"Madam, you've been tired. Get some more sleep."
Chen Yuan was really exhausted. She felt pain all over her body. Her delicate brows were furrowed as she looked at Gu Huailing with some annoyance.
Gu Huailing let her watch as he slowly put on his court robes.
After a moment, he had become the Prime Minister with a noble appearance, standing at the top of the powerful officials.
Shen Yuan looked at his face and all her anger disappeared.
Gu Huailing took in her expression.
He walked over, leaned over, lowered his voice, and said something deliberately vicious in Shen Yuan's ear.
The lethality of that sentence was so strong that Shen Yuan's face was red throughout the morning.
Taozi once thought she had a fever and insisted on calling the court doctor to take her pulse.
The official physician in the Prime Minister's Mansion was a doctor selected from Huichuntang. He was an apprentice of Old Chen and had excellent medical skills.
He frowned several times while taking Shen Yuan's pulse.
What I fear most is the doctor's facial expression.
Taozi was a little nervous and asked, "What's wrong? Is Madam feeling unwell?"
The court doctor's brow furrowed even deeper. "I dare not make a hasty conclusion based on Madam's pulse. I'd better ask Master to come over and take Madam's pulse in person."
Taozi suddenly became nervous and said, "I'll go and ask Mr. Chen right away."
Chen Yuan stopped her and said, "Don't make a fuss. I'm going to Huichuntang in a while. Don't bother me. Mr. Chen ran away again."
In Huichun Hall, Old Chen personally took Shen Yuan's pulse.
After a moment, his expression became very serious.
"But what's wrong?"
Elder Chen withdrew his hand and asked, "Master, have you noticed anything unusual in your body these days?"
Shen Yuan shook his head, "There's nothing wrong with it."
"Master, you fell into the water and were injured. I have been treating your cold symptoms for the past few years. According to common sense, your pulse should not be like this."
Shen Yuan frowned, "What do you mean?"
Elder Chen showed a rare look of confusion. "Master, your pulse is a sign of a worsening cold. It won't cause much harm to your body, but it's bad for your offspring. If you're pregnant, I'm afraid it will be miscarried."
Shen Yuan's face turned pale.
"Can it be cured?"
The issue of offspring has always been a nightmare for Shen Yuan.
"Master, don't worry. I need to think of a prescription and treat you."
Taozi was getting angry and said, "Even you have to think of a prescription, how can it not be serious?"
