I always secretly feel that Helan Minzhi would be willing to take some of the medicine he brought and would get better faster.
"You're finally here..."
It seemed like I had been waiting for a long time, and it was indeed a long time.
Helan Minzhi uttered these words weakly from her pale lips. Two obvious blushes appeared on her bloodless cheeks. The corners of her mouth were raised, along with her cheekbones. Because she was too thin, her smile did not look so cute and shy.
But this did not prevent Yu Chenghao from feeling distressed for her. He placed the medicine on the table. Helan Minzhi saw the medicine wrapped in squares and stacked up, and propped herself up to sit up. "Take the medicine back. I won't be able to explain it to the palace maids when they come later."
Yu Chenghao almost forgot that Nanny Ji was no longer around. There was no one to cover for him, and no one to take care of Helan Minzhi.
They tacitly agreed not to mention why they caught a cold in the scorching summer of June.
Yu Seung-ho seemed a little embarrassed, not because the medicine was returned, but because he didn't know what to say to Helan Minzhi.
He was obviously a man of great eloquence, who could turn black into white, bad into good, and dead into alive. He was also the owner of the famous restaurant Zuixianlou, but he could not say a word when facing such a Helan Minzhi.
The concern expressed out loud is too pale, not to mention that once he expresses his concern, all that should be revealed is revealed, so there is no need to talk about whether to hide it or not.
"I heard Si Shuo hasn't left yet."
Helan Minzhi glanced at him. How come this person could be heard of everywhere? Perhaps he didn't want to talk about Si Shuo's affairs, so his tone was not very happy. "If he doesn't leave, then I don't have to leave."
Yoo Seung Ho pursed his lips and glanced at her, as if he didn't know how to get along with people. "I also heard that she has a good relationship with a palace maid."
How come he hears about it everywhere? Helan Minzhi had always been curious about his connections. Just how extensive was his network? He had all the news, both inside and outside the palace, in and out of the city. And it was accurate, always the first to know.
"If you have nothing to say, you should leave."
Helan Minzhi didn't like Yu Chenghao mentioning Si Shuo all the time. It was obvious that he came to find her by bypassing the Queen Mother, the guards and the palace walls because he cared about her, but as soon as they met, he mentioned someone else.
The order to expel him made Yu Chenghao even more helpless. "What if Si Shuo is with that palace maid? Maybe you won't have to..."
"Yu Seung-ho," Helan Minzhi said with a rare firm attitude, "Can you tell me something about yourself?"
Helan Minzhi would not waste time on things that had already been decided, as she felt it was useless.
"You care so much about what he said, do you care about me too..." Helan Minzhi wanted to use this sudden temper and the courage he had gathered for a long time to finish his words, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them, as if he had lost his language system. "Forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything on the Flower Festival."
Yoo Seung-ho takes it seriously, he takes everything seriously.
People are always contradictory. Helan Minzhi is determined to marry into the Simu Kingdom, but at the same time she wants to see Yu Chenghao more often. As for Yu Chenghao, he wants her to run to someone better than him, but he can't let go at the critical moment.
But one must always be brave for once, even if it’s just a question in a relationship, “Minzhi, if you don’t go to Simu Kingdom, will you marry me?”
What are you talking about...
Helan Minzhi looked up at his serious eyes. It was rare to see seriousness in his eyes. Brother Ahao was always joking, like a playboy devil playing around in the world.
Helan Minzhi always couldn't answer those jokes, but this time it was not a joke, and Helan Minzhi still couldn't answer it.
She stopped looking at him and stared down at her fingers. Her nails had grown very long and she had been reluctant to cut them.
After a long time, she slowly spoke, "Brother Hao, there is no such thing as if in this world."
Helan Minzhi was willing, but she couldn't say it.
From the moment she was born, her fate was destined to be beyond her control. If she had to find something she could control, it would probably be to like the person she likes.
But now this power must be taken back.
It’s very sad, but no matter how sad it is, I have to accept it.
***
On the eighth day of June, a rumor gradually spread in Funing City.
Maybe it’s not a rumor, it’s just something people talk about after dinner.
Because the matter and the people involved are so huge, no one dares to speak out but dares not slander.
The rumor goes that two days have passed since Zhan Shaoang's death, and a bloody corpse was hung on the city wall. This was really shocking and scary, but many people were interested in it.
Because it was discovered very quickly, not many people saw it with their own eyes, and this was also the beginning of the rumors.
Almost everyone knew that there was a sign hanging on Zhan Shaoang with the words "dishonest person" written on it, so everyone began to speculate that this "dishonest person" was Zhan Shaoang who had lost his credibility and made enemies with others.
That's why people were retaliated against so badly, and were used by the elderly to educate children. If they were disobedient, they would be hung on the city gate.
This is where things get interesting. There is reliable information that Zhan Shaoang was once the master of Crown Princess Jin Suting, specializing in teaching martial arts.
But he disappeared for a while and did not fulfill his promise to Jin Suting.
The "dishonest person" sign was the only clue in their eyes. They all looked like experts who had solved major cases, and they boldly guessed that it might be Jin Suting who was the killer. After all, she even killed her own sister.
But she was the Crown Princess, and although this matter was circulating for a while, she did not dare to be too presumptuous.
But it eventually reached the ears of the Queen Mother, and Jin Suting herself also knew about it.
