Chapter 488: Recuperation
Song Ruize took people to send Tang Yichen back to Tang's house. He did not enter the gate of Tang's house, but left with the people from the military department.
When Qin Huiyin rushed out after hearing the news, she only saw Song Ruize riding away on a horse.
The whole family stayed by Tang Yichen's bedside waiting for Tang Yixiao's medical results.
Tang Yixiao took his pulse first, then checked Tang Yichen's wound, and said to everyone: "Brother's wound has healed well. As long as he rests well at home and doesn't cause any more trouble, he will be able to get out of bed and walk in half a month at most."
"Thank God." Tang Dafu put his hands together, "God bless you."
"It's not the Bodhisattva's blessing, it's the capable man from the Song family who is protecting you." Li Taohua said, "He saved your son, we should thank him very much."
"That's because my son is lucky. God is going to take that vicious woman away and save him from disaster." Tang Dafu said.
"God is very busy and can't hear your prayers. If you have the time to believe in God's protection, you might as well hold on to the right big brother." Li Taohua said unhappily, "Forget it, there's no point in telling you this."
Tang Yichen woke up quickly. He saw his whole family standing by his bed and said weakly, "I'm fine, don't worry."
"Princess Yuanying committed suicide by jumping into a well in the middle of the night. Even if you agree now, Prince Zhong's Mansion will not have a daughter to marry you. We have finally gotten rid of those evil spirits that haunt Prince Zhong's Mansion." Li Taohua said, "But you have angered the emperor. Without his will, you cannot return to the Ministry of Works. You must be prepared. Even if you return to the Ministry of Works, it may be difficult for you to be promoted because of this incident. Even if you return to the Ministry of Works, your colleagues who were originally friendly to you may start to use tricks against you. Who made you lose the emperor's favor now?"
"I understand." Tang Yichen said, "No matter what is waiting for me ahead, I am not afraid. What's more, I don't think things are that bad."
Tang Yixiao wrote a prescription and brought back the herbs from the Imperial Hospital to boil the medicine for Tang Yichen. From picking the prescription, selecting the herbs to boiling the medicine, he personally supervised all the processes in order to achieve the best effect and allow Tang Yichen to recover sooner.
Tang Luwu and Qin Huiyin stayed by Tang Yichen's bed to entertain him. The two sisters only left for a while when Tang Yichen was resting.
Tang Yichen lost a lot of weight in a short period of time and looked like a different person, with a bit of sickly pretty feel.
Qin Huiyin and Tang Luwu came to the kitchen to make delicious food for Tang Yichen while he was resting. The two sisters hadn't cooked for a long time, and at this moment, it seemed like they were back in the countryside.
"Why can't I see your little tail?" Qin Huiyin asked curiously while stirring the soup in the bowl.
"Not long ago, the Imperial Guards were recruiting, and he applied. After three rounds of screening, he is now in training."
"Why does he suddenly want to join the Imperial Guard?"
"I don't know either." Tang Luwu said, "But he is very smart and has good skills. It's a bit of a waste of his talent for him to always be my little follower. If he has a better place to go, of course it would be better to watch him climb up."
"That's right."
Zhilan walked in and said to Qin Huiyin, "Miss Xia is here."
"Where is she? Bring her here!"
"Do I need someone to take me to your house?" Xia Ruwan walked in. "It smells so good! Give me some later."
"Okay." Qin Huiyin looked back at her and saw that she had a worried look on her face. She asked in confusion, "You don't look very well. Did you not sleep well or are you feeling unwell?"
"The daily bills are so huge, and I have to support thousands of employees. How can I not feel some pressure? I am so worried. I can't sleep all night long. I am so worried."
"I thought you were only thinking about Young Master Li, but you're worried about business?" Qin Huiyin said, "I heard Young Master Li led a caravan out of Beijing?"
"Yes! He has to start from scratch now, and he has to negotiate many deals in person. However, no one in the Li family will tell him what to do, so he can be the boss."
"The Li family's fortune is gone, leaving only an empty shell. If others still dare to make comments, I'm afraid they won't even have a roof over their heads to protect them from the sun or rain. Do they dare to object?"
Qin Huiyin cooked the soup, called Su Jin, packed a portion and asked her to deliver it to the Bingmasi.
"The man from the Song family is in charge of the entire military department now. He is really powerful. I heard that he beat up the man named Jiang. Although he was rescued by the Earl of Anping, he still received more than 20 blows. The imperial physician from the Imperial Hospital examined him and said that his buttocks were broken and there was no healthy flesh left. He would have to lie down for more than 10 to 20 days before he could move."
"You are well-informed. I don't know these things." Qin Huiyin was surprised.
"I happened to hear it." Xia Ruwan touched her cheek.
Qin Huiyin thought that Song Ruize had just returned to Beijing and had done several big things, and now he didn't know how tired he was.
She turned around and said to Tang Luwu, "I'll go to the Song residence later. I need you to take good care of my brother here."
When Tang Luwu heard Xia Ruwan mention the elder brother of the Song family, she knew that Qin Huiyin would definitely go to see him. The elder brother of the Song family saved the eldest brother and was indebted to the Tang family, so everyone was very grateful to him.
At this time, Song Ruize came out of the Princess's Mansion.
Jiang Qibin followed behind him and said to him, "Commander-in-chief, what does the princess mean?"
"What do you mean?"
"She fought for you to get the position of commander-in-chief of the military department, and she also asked you to work hard, make more contributions, and strive for a promotion as soon as possible."
"Um."
"Why did she promote you so much?" Jiang Qibin said, "She also mentioned the Lady of Minghua County, saying that she was very satisfied with your escort this time and said a lot of good things about you. Why does this sound wrong to me? Could it be that the Lady of Minghua County has taken a fancy to you?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Song Ruize frowned, "I haven't been alone with her this whole time."
"But the Lady Minghua is very enthusiastic towards you, and she took the initiative to talk to you along the way. Brother Ze, these royal women are very delicate. If you marry one like this, you will never be able to stand up straight in your life. The man from the Tang family lost half his life after getting involved with Lady Yuanying. If you hadn't come back in time, I'm afraid he would have lost his entire life. Now that he has just escaped from the sea of suffering, you won't be the next one to jump into it, right?"
"I've been too nice to you lately, and you've got the guts to curse me." Song Ruize glared at him. "How about I let you go to the North City Army and be the second in command?"
Among the five city military commanders, the North City Military Command is the most difficult to control. After all, they have a strong backer, and it is difficult to find any evidence against them. The other cities' military commanders are all in his pocket, but the North City Military Command needs time to be tamed.
