Xiao Ye took a handkerchief and gently wiped the corners of her mouth. She remembered that the princess would vomit uncontrollably whenever she saw food in the past two days, but now her complexion is finally a little rosy.
"Princess, we should ask Doctor Hu to come over and check her pulse today. Why don't you want Doctor Hu to come into the yard?" Qiuyue came in with a basin of hot water, ready to wipe her hands. She saw Doctor Hu still kneeling outside the yard. Doctor Hu had the prince's instructions to check her pulse every day. But for some reason, the princess didn't let him in since the past two days.
Gongsun Ningxue stood quietly aside, usually a serious person, which reminded her of that wooden man, Qingfeng, who was exactly the same as her.
"I don't want to see stinky men." Gu Yunru said casually, and Xiaoye, Qiuyue and others were all confused.
"Your Highness..." Doctor Hu was kneeling outside the courtyard. When he heard footsteps, he turned around and saw that it was his savior. He quickly knelt down and crawled in front of him.
Rong Zhen frowned and asked in confusion: "Why are you kneeling here? Why don't you go in and feel her pulse?"
Doctor Hu felt so aggrieved that he had no one to vent it to. When he saw Rong Zhen coming over, he immediately started crying to him, "The princess wouldn't let me in to take her pulse. She said that the sight of me made me sick." Doctor Hu thought about it and decided that it must be the method he had told the princess two days ago that had angered her, so she looked at him coldly.
"Hurry up and get up. It's ridiculous to kneel at the gate of the yard." Rong Zhen looked as steady as a rock. Doctor Hu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly stood up, his legs shaking.
"Follow me in." As soon as Rong Zhen finished speaking, Doctor Hu immediately perked up and followed him in. Thinking of the princess's chilly eyes, he felt a chill all over his body.
"Your Highness." When everyone saw the prince coming in, they immediately went to the door to greet him. Gu Yunru had just finished a bowl of bird's nest porridge and almost vomited again when she saw Doctor Hu. Doctor Hu also had a helpless look on his face and obediently followed behind Rong Zhen waiting for his fate.
"Who asked you to come in?" Gu Yunru waved the handkerchief in her hand in dissatisfaction.
"What's wrong with you? Doctor Hu didn't do anything to you, did he?" Rong Zhen saw that she was making a fuss, so he walked over to sit beside her, and looked at her pale face and the sour food she ate, and frowned with curiosity.
"When did you start liking these candied hawthorns?" Rong Zhen looked at her doubtfully, trying to find some clues in her clear and penetrating eyes. He also observed the expression of Doctor Hu behind him, as if she was hiding something from him.
After being with Gu Yunru for a long time, I have learned some micro-expression reading skills. I can see that there must be some grudge between these two people. Otherwise, Gu Yunru would not be so angry and would not allow Doctor Hu to set foot in Ginkgo Garden.
"Doctor Hu, are you hiding something from me?" Rong Zhen's voice was cold and no emotion could be heard.
Doctor Hu was so frightened that he was trembling with fear and almost gave himself away. Gu Yunru had been winking at him, and even Gongsun Ningxue, who was not good at mind reading, could see that there must be something between the two of them that was being hidden from Rong Zhen.
Rong Zhen slammed the table, and Doctor Hu was so scared that he immediately knelt in front of him, wishing he could kowtow a few more times, "What on earth are you hiding from me?" Rong did not point his finger at Gu Yunru, but looked at Doctor Hu who was standing beside him. Doctor Hu knelt in front of him, tears streaming down his face, sobbing and complaining about his grievances.
"Oh, well, I didn't let Doctor Hu feel my pulse because..." Gu Yunru's eyes were evasive and she felt very weak inside. She couldn't come up with a good excuse for the time being. Rong Zhen's arrival was just a coincidence. Gongsun Ningxue saw that the atmosphere was a little awkward, so she coughed twice and looked at Rong Zhen and said, "Your Highness, the princess said that the room should not have too much yang energy, so she didn't want Doctor Hu to come and feel my pulse. This is understandable."
Gu Yunru didn't expect that Miss Gongsun's brain was so useful. She immediately helped him think of a bluffing excuse. Although Rong Zhen's brain was definitely not easy to fool, he could only use such a poor excuse at the moment.
"Yeah, Doctor Hu is always hanging around in front of me, it's really annoying." Gu Yunru pouted, trying to get away with it by being cute.
"Forget it, Qingfeng, send Doctor Hu back first." Rong Zhen winked at Qingfeng who was guarding the door. Qingfeng immediately understood and took Doctor Hu out.
"Gongsun, I have already arranged the matter of the sword tomb in secret. This is a good opportunity. However, you have to promise me that I will not let these people enter the capital again. I am afraid that it will cause trouble."
"Okay, thank you." Gongsun Ningxue looked at Rong Zhen. There was a hint of mixed emotions under her grateful eyes. Gu Yunru ate the hawthorn cake while listening to the two of them talking. She saw some clues from Gongsun Ningxue's expression, as if it was some ambiguous feelings that only lovers would have.
Unexpectedly, I saw it from Gongsun Ningxue's expression.
"Ah." Gu Yunru was watching with great interest and accidentally bit her tongue.
Rong Zhen was very worried about her every move, and would be alarmed at the slightest sign of trouble. "Yun Ru, are you okay?" Rong Zhen came to her with concern and grabbed her hand, thinking that she had a cut somewhere.
Gongsun watched their interaction from the side and took a deep breath. It seemed that the relationship between the two was indeed very good.
She was just a passer-by and should return to where she came from.

"Gongsun, please pour me a cup of tea." Rong Zhen looked at Gongsun Ningxue who was close to the table, but she seemed to be distracted and didn't hear what Rong Zhen said. Gu Yunru just had some minor problems. Her tongue was bitten, and she spoke with a lisp for a while.
Rong Zhen worriedly passed the tea to her mouth. Gu Yunru drank the tea slowly and felt much better.
"Don't worry, I just bit my tongue..." Gu Yunru couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from her forehead. Seeing how worried he was, she felt a little guilty in her heart.
"Miss Gongsun, what are you going to do in the future?" Although Gu Yunru's tongue was swollen, she could barely speak. She looked at Gongsun Ningxue who seemed a little dazed and asked. Now that the Gongsun Mansion has declined and no one from the Sword Tomb can appear in the city anymore, where will she go next?
"I...maybe I have to go to Qinzhou." Gongsun Ningxue did have some relatives in Qinzhou, but they hadn't been in touch for many years and she didn't know if they could recognize each other again. But she couldn't live in the capital city anyway.
"King Zhao, thank you for protecting the Gongsun family. Princess, I will be leaving tomorrow. Can Your Highness see me off?" Gongsun Ningxue made a request that was not excessive, but it made Gu Yunru's expression stern.
