Yu Tanqi has been unable to get out of bed because of the injury on his shoulder.
In order to make it easier for Xu Mubai to treat her, her luggage was moved to the medicine garden. In order to take better care of her, Linlang and the others also lived in the medicine garden.
Yu Tanqi had to drink more and more medicines, which became more and more bitter, and he was miserable every day.
Linlang wiped her tears and said, "Miss, when you were unconscious, I was scared to death. I was really scared. If you don't wake up, how can I explain to Madam Xie? And Madam..."
Tao Hua also nodded with red eyes and said, "Yes, Miss, you have been in poor health since you were a child, and you have suffered such a serious injury. This servant Linlang and I are really worried to death."
"Okay, stop crying. I'm still alive. With Doctor Xu here, my injuries will definitely heal."
The two of them cried beside the bed, and Yu Tanqi had to comfort them gently. He pinched his nose and drank six bowls of medicine a day. After three days, he felt a little dazed.
My mouth is bitter, and everything I eat has no taste.
She asked Xu Mubai pitifully, "Can't I really have a little bit of sweetness?"
Xu Mubai said in a gentle voice: "For the sake of the girl's health, it is best not to eat sweets now, and eat a light diet."
The porridge sent from the kitchen had no saltiness at all, and Yu Tanqi almost felt sick to his stomach.
She lay in bed feeling like she would die at any moment.
That day, she finally couldn't help herself and said to Taohua with a sad face: "Taohua, do you feel sorry for me?"
Tao Hua quickly said, "Of course I feel sorry for you, young lady."
Yu Tanqi: "If you feel sorry for me, just go out and buy me some snacks. If I don't eat something sweet, I feel like life is meaningless."
Tao Hua was horrified: "Miss, please don't let your mind wander. I'll get you some snacks right away."
This little maid, who is half a year younger than the original owner, is very easy to fool.
Yu Tanqi controlled the corners of his mouth that were about to turn upwards and said weakly, "No, we have to go buy some snacks outside, otherwise we'll be easily discovered."
Tao Hua nodded: "I understand, young lady, have a good rest. I will go buy you some snacks right away."
Yu Tanqi's eyes curved, "Go quickly and come back quickly. Be careful not to be discovered."
"Don't worry, miss."
As Tao Hua went out, she ran into Yu Lan, who was dressed in white and looked haggard. She bowed and said, "Miss Yu."
Yu Lan said, "I came to see your young lady. Is she feeling better?"
After she was brought back to Wu'an Marquis Mansion by Yu Tanqi, she has been living in the medicine garden, helping Xu Mubai with some odd jobs, and the gloom in her eyes has dissipated a lot.
She came to see Yu Tanqi several times when he was in a coma, but she had little influence and her status in the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion was awkward. She didn't know what to say or do, so she could only try her best to avoid being annoying.
She thought about leaving, but Yu Tanqi was afraid that she would commit suicide again, so he asked her to live in the Marquis' Mansion in peace. If Doctor Xu could teach her something, she would have less time to think so much and would have hope for the future.
Yu Lan began to follow Xu Mubai seriously.
"The young lady is in good spirits. Please go in, Miss Yu."
Yu Lan opened the door and walked to Yu Tanqi's bedside. Looking at her pale and weak appearance lying on the bed, she asked worriedly, "Miss Yu, how are you feeling now?"
Yu Tanqi smiled slightly: "Not bad."
She didn't want others to worry about her too much, so even though her shoulder was still hurting, she would try to smile and say it was okay, it didn't hurt much, just a little.
Yu Lan thought about the rumors she had heard in the past few days and couldn't help but say, "I didn't expect that the people who hired someone to assassinate Prince Jiang would be his eldest uncle and third uncle. Moreover, in the past seventeen years, they have committed more than a hundred crimes. How could there be such terrible relatives in the world? They and Prince Jiang are from the same clan and are his uncles!"
Yu Lan originally thought that being used and abandoned by a man was miserable enough, but he never expected that Jiang Shi was even more miserable than him. His only remaining relative actually wanted him dead.
It is really not easy for Prince Jiang to live to this day.
Yu Tanqi said sadly, "There are always some people in this world who are greedy and will do anything for their own benefit, regardless of family affection."
Seeing the sadness on her face, Yu Lan quickly said, "But they have now received the fate they deserved. Jiang Qi and Jiang Qin were killed, and their entire family was exiled. The Crown Prince will have an easier time in the future."
Yu Tanqi's long eyelashes trembled slightly.
The Jiang family's fate is the same as in the original book, but that happened at the end of this year, but now it happened half a year earlier.
She didn't know whether it was good or bad.
Seeing that Yu Tanqi was not in a good mood, Yu Lan said something to tease her. When Linlang came over, she got up and left.
She didn't ask what happened to Rong Ze. She knew that even if Rong Ze couldn't marry the prime minister's daughter, he would never come back to her.
A newly-minted scholar with outstanding appearance who wants a bright future would never be tied to her.
…
Yu Tanqi didn't wait for Taohua to secretly buy snacks to feed her, but waited for Jiang Shi, whom she hadn't seen for three days.
The young man was wearing a dark robe, and his figure and face looked thinner and paler than before.
Jiang Shi met Yu Tanqi's worried and distressed eyes, smiled slightly, stretched out a slender arm, and in the palm of his jade-like hand was an exquisite red peace knot.
"This is the peace knot I made for you. I specially asked the eminent monk Master Wuyou from the White Horse Temple to consecrate it. I hope it will keep you safe."
Yu Tanqi looked at the red peace knot on his white palm. Her small white nose moved and she smelled the rosewood fragrance, a common scent in temples.
She blinked and smiled, "Thank you. But other people go to the temple to get amulets, why do you get a peace knot?"
Jiang Shi tied a peace knot at the head of her bed and said softly, "I made the peace knot myself. I think it's more sincere this way."
He knew that amulets were usually used to ensure safety, but when he thought of the amulets his parents held tightly in their hands when they died, he felt inexplicably nervous and changed to a safety knot.
Just to seek peace of mind.
Yu Tanqi asked, "Have you tied a peace knot for yourself?"
Jiang Shi shook his head: "No, I don't need this."
"How can I not need it?"
Yu Tanqi wanted to get up, but when he moved his shoulder, he gasped in pain. Jiang Shi quickly said, "Don't move. Just lie still."
The girl's eyes instantly became misty.
The blood on her snow-white shoulder dyed the white bandage red.
His eyes were dazzling, but she looked at his pale and weak face and said, “I see that you look pale. Are you also injured? Is that why you didn’t come to see me these days?”
Jiang Shi naturally wouldn't admit it. He whispered, "I'm not hurt. You protected me very well. I took a day off these days, then made a peace knot, and then went to the White Horse Temple to ask Master Wuyou to consecrate the peace knot, so I came to see you today."
White Horse Temple is the first temple in Wanjin State. The abbot, Master Wuyou, is a famous monk. It is said that the amulets he has blessed are very useful and the fortune he has told are very effective.
Jiang Shi lowered his eyes, pursed his lips, and frowned as he thought of what Master Wuyou said.
"This girl's fate is very strange. Her supposedly bleak fate has become vague and unclear."
