After Zi Zheng received Luo Cheng’s order, he invited Duan Sha to sit at the side while he took her pulse in the hall.
After taking the pulse of both hands, Zi Zheng pondered for a moment and said,
“From her pulse, other than being a little weak, Miss Duan is fine. Although her pulse is still a little weaker than that of a normal person, the illness that plagued Miss Duan in the past is probably gone! Of course, because I’ve never taken Miss Duan’s pulse in the past, I don’t know the difference. I suggest that after you go home, find the doctor who has been treating you to take your pulse. He should be the most familiar with the changes in your body!”
When Duan Sha heard Zi Zheng’s words, a smile appeared on her face.
Although she could sense it, she felt even more at ease after being confirmed by someone who knew medicine.
“Thank you! I’ll definitely confirm it again when I go back!”
When Li Xiaoran heard Zi Zheng’s words, she was sincerely happy for Duan Sha.
“Miss Duan, what did I say before? The heavens will definitely reward you!
Congratulations, you’ve finally made it!”
Duan Sha smiled at Li Xiaoran even more brightly.
“That’s right. Being able to meet the Seventh Prince’s consort is a reward from the heavens!”
“No, no, no, I didn’t do anything! You can focus on recuperating now. After the capital opens its gates, you can go home and reunite with your family. After you recuperate for a few months, you can go wherever you want in the future!” Li Xiaoran waved her hand and refused to take the credit. Duan Sha nodded gently and said,
“Then I’ll have to trouble you for the next period of time!”
“You’re welcome. It’s fate that we met. No matter what, we’ve been through thick and thin together!” Li Xiaoran said with a smile. Shu Ruyue was amused by Li Xiaoran’s words.
On second thought, that was true.
When the Eldest Princess and Princess Ning Xin witnessed this scene, they were both stunned.
“After suffering comes happiness! If your grandma found out that you recovered, she would definitely drink to celebrate!” The Eldest Princess thought of something and said happily.
Duan Sha laughed when she heard what the Eldest Princess said.
“Eldest Princess, you really know my grandma well! You even know that my grandma likes to drink secretly!”
Hearing this, the Eldest Princess smiled even more happily.
“Of course I know! All of your grandma’s friends know her personality very well. You don’t know, but when your father interfered with your grandma’s drinking, your grandma secretly came to my house to ask for wine!” When Duan Sha heard this, she looked shocked.
Why didn’t she know that her grandma and the Eldest Princess knew each other?
“It’s normal that you don’t know. Your grandma had long expected that her drinking habit would be curbed by her descendants in the future, so she never said anything about our relationship and has been hiding it!” The Eldest Princess revealed Duan Sha’s grandma’s secret.
Duan Sha blinked in astonishment when she heard what the Eldest Princess said.
“I don’t know anything! I didn’t hear anything today!” Hearing this, the Eldest Princess shook her head.
“They’re listening!”
With that, the Eldest Princess looked at the people around her.
Li Xiaoran was the first to understand. Then, she looked away.
“Did you guys hear anything? I didn’t hear anything? Huh, how strange. Why can’t I hear anything after breakfast?!”
“Yes, yes, yes. Like you, I didn’t hear anything!” Shu Ruyue said behind Li Xiaoran.
Everyone laughed as they said that they hadn’t heard anything.
After laughing, everyone returned to their rooms to rest.
Duan Sha was the weakest. Although the cause of the illness had been gotten rid of, she couldn’t recover from the weakness in a day or two, so she had to rest more.
Princess Ning Xin also had a lot on her mind. After she returned to her place, she fell asleep again.
After the nightmare she had last night, she felt listless and wanted to sleep a little longer.
Meng Yan and Ma Chongshan planned to take a walk in the courtyard.
The Eldest Princess, her servant, and Shu Ruyue stayed in the main hall.
“Luo Cheng, what is the situation in the capital now?” The Eldest Princess asked.
After Luo Cheng looked around, he beckoned them.
“Auntie, let’s go to the study together!”
The Eldest Princess nodded and went to the study with Luo Cheng.
Li Xiaoran originally didn’t plan to follow, but Luo Cheng also called her and Shu Ruyue along.
Soon, the several of them were sitting in the study.
Wu Qinghe was also invited over by Luo Cheng. Then, everyone sat together.
“Auntie, the capital’s gate is closed now. My news can’t be sent in, nor can the news inside come out. Someone tried to send a messenger pigeon, but before they could fly out, they were shot down. Any birds that enter the capital will be shot!” Luo Cheng told her the news he had obtained.
“What was going on at the farmstead? Where did all the people who were released yesterday go?” The Eldest Princess asked the question that she was concerned about.
“Those manic people must have taken some drug. Eight hours later, these people seemed to have exhausted all their energy and fell to the ground unconscious. I’ve already sent people to capture those manic people and lock them up in a place. Then, I asked the Imperial Physician Dr. Liu to check on those people. I suspect that someone poisoned them to make them manic before letting them out to harm people!” Luo Cheng guessed.
Hearing this, the Eldest Princess was confused.
“What’s the other party’s goal?”
When Luo Cheng heard the Eldest Princess’s words, he told her the news he had just received.
“Most of the people in the farmstead were injured, but a small portion of them disappeared. They didn’t disappear after finding their own way, but suddenly disappeared. I suspect that these people were secretly captured and used to threaten others!”
Everyone understood who this person was.
In that case, all the dots were connected.
Something had happened in the capital, and it was still unresolved. The current situation was unknown!
When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng’s words, she suddenly thought of something.
“In that case, the goal of those people who want to invite me to the banquet is not to give you and me a hard time.. Perhaps the other party also wanted to capture me in order to threaten you!”
