ending
More than a month later, in the backyard of Xie's house.
Xie Yunnong, draped in a plain brocade cape, sat on a cushioned stone bench. Over a month after giving birth, her complexion remained somewhat pale, but her spirits had improved considerably. The baby in her arms, freshly fed, babbled, waving its chubby little hands and scratching at the air with an innocent air.
Su Yunwei sat across from her and carefully reminded her: "Although Codonopsis can replenish Qi and blood, it must not be used too much. Your body is still too weak, you need to replenish it slowly, don't rush it."
Xie Yunnong listened quietly, his eyes falling on Su Yunwei, a gentle smile on his lips: "I've made a note of it, thank you for your concern."
Ever since Xie Yunnong left the Wang family, Su Yunwei was often invited by Xie Yunqing to take her elder sister's pulse. At first, Su Yunwei felt that Xie Yunnong was no longer seriously ill and wanted to decline the invitation, but Xie Yunqing offered her a generous fee. Looking at the huge sum of money, she couldn't say no.
These days, Su Yunwei occasionally ran into Xie Yunqing on his way home. Sometimes he would stand quietly by her side, silently watching her take her pulse; other times he would try to play with the baby, but his technique was clumsy, often making the child cry, and then he would look at them helplessly, causing a lot of trouble.
······
These days, Su Yunwei's deeds of performing a caesarean section to deliver a baby and saving a woman from hemorrhage have spread throughout the capital, and have even been exaggerated to be miraculous, with people saying that she is the reincarnation of a miracle doctor.
However, the Fu Mansion was heavily guarded, and Su Yunwei rarely ventured out. More importantly, even if she did appear before those seeking an audience, except for those she knew well, she would likely be treated as an ordinary female relative, receiving only a "Excuse me" response.
In the courtyard that day, Fu Changan and Su Yunwei sat opposite each other, sipping tea, and whispered, "A lot of people have gathered outside again, all wanting to see you."
Su Yunwei picked up the teacup, her expression calm, "I know. Saving people is one thing, dealing with these people is another." She drank the tea in the cup, and suddenly tilted her head to tease, "Master Fu, do you think I'm causing you trouble?"
Fu Changan's lips curled up slightly, and warmth flashed in his eyes: "I couldn't ask for more." He paused, and his voice became gentler: "Just do what you want to do, and I'll take care of the rest."
Su Yunwei's heart warmed, and she leaned forward to put her arms around his neck and kissed him on the cheek. However, Fu Changan felt that it was not enough, so he took her into his arms and lowered his head to take in that lustrous kiss.
The kiss was gentle and long, and he let go reluctantly until Su Yunwei's breathing became a little disordered.
"Master Fu," Su Yunwei's cheeks flushed, and there was a cunning look in her eyes, "It's broad daylight, and you don't know how to restrain yourself."
Fu Changan gently stroked her hot cheek with his fingertips, his eyes full of tenderness: "Why should you be shy about being close to the person you love in your own courtyard?"
"You weren't like this before..." Su Yun chuckled.
Before he thought about it, he would be stunned for several days after being kissed by her. How come he has become like this now!
Fu Changan smiled indulgently and said, "If you don't want to see those people outside, I'll send them away."
"I know." Su Yun leaned slightly on his shoulder, feeling this rare peace. The confusion and uneasiness she had felt when she traveled through time seemed to gradually subside under this man's protection.
I am so lucky to meet him in this strange era!
A few days later, when Fu Changan returned home, he was a little worried. After dinner, he took Su Yunwei's hand and returned to the yard.
In the courtyard, he was silent for a moment. "Weiwei, at the morning court this morning, the Holy Lord mentioned that the dragon body was feeling tired from time to time, and the treatments given by the Imperial Hospital were ineffective. I don't know why he asked about you!"
"Me!!" Su Yunwei pointed at herself in surprise.
"Yes." Fu Changan nodded, his eyes calm. "The Holy Lord heard that you had a caesarean section to take the baby and a craniotomy to drain the blood clots. He has issued an order to have you come to the palace tomorrow to see the Holy Lord and take his pulse."
Su Yunwei: “!!!!”
Help! Treating the king? Wouldn't that mean my life would be in jeopardy if I wasn't careful?
No, she doesn't want to. Su Yunwei subconsciously shook her head, her face full of rejection: "I... I don't want to go, I'm scared."
Fu Changan noticed his reaction, reached out and held his fingers that were chilled by the wind, and said gently, "I understand your concerns. If you don't want to, I will find a reason to refuse tomorrow. Although the Holy Lord is the king of a country, he is not unreasonable..."
"But..." Su Yunwei was a little worried after hearing what he said, "Will it have any impact on you if I don't go directly?"
Hearing this, Fu Changan smiled slightly, "Silly girl, I've told you so many times, I'll take care of everything. The Fu family won't be punished for this little thing. Your wishes are the most important. If you don't want to go, then we won't go."
"Saint... Is Your Majesty easy to get along with?" Fu Chang'an said it nonchalantly, but in the end, this was still disobeying the emperor's order. Su Yunwei didn't want to embarrass Fu Chang'an.
Fu Changan knew she was a little moved. After thinking for a moment, he said frankly, "He is... a wise ruler who is easy to get along with." He paused again and continued, "Of course, the power of heaven is unpredictable. Serving a ruler is like serving a tiger."
Su Yunwei looked at Fu Changan with a serious look. Finally, she took a deep breath and decided, "Okay. I'll go!"
"Have you thought it through?" Fu Changan was a little surprised. "You don't have to change your mind because of me."
"Think it through." Su Yun nodded slightly. "Didn't you say you'd be there for me no matter what? With you backing me up, I'm not afraid of anything!"
Seeing her like this, Fu Changan couldn't argue anymore. Anyway, no matter what happened, he would definitely stay with her and protect her. He held her in his arms and said, "Okay, then you will come with me to the palace tomorrow. I will wait outside. If you need anything, just call me."
"Yeah." Su Yunwei snuggled in his arms, listening to his strong and steady heartbeat, and the uneasiness she felt had disappeared.
The next day, in the palace of the rich and powerful, Fu Changan, carrying Su Yunwei's medicine box, accompanied Su Yunwei, step by step towards the palace that symbolized the highest power.
Su Yunwei's own story is about to begin a new chapter.
