Chapter 49: The Chronicle of Illness 4

Youcao came back to her senses, nodded like pounding garlic, and walked towards Lin Ruo's wing.

Murong Chong put Lin Ruo on the bed, then exited the side room, closed the door, and let the grass help her pick it up.

The suspicious fox's eyes looked at the closed door of the wing, thinking back to the trembling of the person in his arms along the way, not like a pretend, it was this sudden fright, and what kind of strange illness was it? Can't ...... yet Let others know?

After a long time, the door opened, and Yucao came out lightly and closed the door. Seeing that Prince Rong was still guarding the door, he was slightly frightened, but he immediately saluted, and led Murong Chong to the side and walked a few steps, kneeling in front of him: "Thank you Lord for your help, but the slave maid begs the Lord not to tell me about today's events." ”

Murong Chong frowned and asked, "What disease does she have?" Is there only one in the Lin Mansion who knows? ”

"Actually, it's not a disease, it's a ...... in the Gu Mansion before" Youcao closed her mouth and looked at Murong Chong, "The old master and the third young master both know that Doctor Mo also helped the young lady diagnose it, but there is no cure, and it can only be relieved with medicine." The young lady didn't want them to worry, so she tried to hide it from them every time she got sick. ”

If it's not a disease, then what is it?

Still in the Gu Mansion?

Murong Chong narrowed his eyes and continued to ask, "Does Su Shizi know?" ”

"I know, when Doctor Mo was not in Bian'an, the medicine used by Miss was all prepared by Su Shizi according to the prescription left by Doctor Mo."

Murong Chong nodded: "This king knows." You take good care of her. ”

"Yes."

Murong Chong didn't stop long, turned around and left. But he didn't go directly to the palace, but went to the free clinic near the Ci'en Temple, and pulled Su Muyu, who was busy, to tell Lin Ruo about Lin Ruo's situation before leaving.

When Su Muyu heard that Lin Ruo had committed a chronic illness, he threw the things in his hand to his subordinates, and disappeared without a trace.

Hurriedly ran to the door of Lin Ruo's wing, but was stopped by Leng Shu, and Youcao had a chance to remind him: "My prince, you are quiet, Miss has just fallen asleep!" ”

Su Muyu patted his head: "I'm crazy, how is Ah Ruo?" ”

"It's not too serious, I took the condensing pill and already fell asleep."

Lin Ruo's chronic illness is actually a post-traumatic stress reaction, but in ancient times, there was no such statement, and it was only explained as the sequelae left by her when she fell into the water in the palace when she was five years old, fear of water. After the Lu clan discovered this, he took advantage of it, so that Lin Ruo would have palpitations when he heard the sound of water in an unknown place.

There are two kinds of medicine she carryed, one is called "Heart Protection Pill", which is the medicine used to save the post soldiers at the north gate of Bian'an City that day, which was prepared by Doctor Mo himself. Doctor Mo would go back to Bian'an City every few years, bring the medicinal materials he had collected back to the Lin Mansion, and personally help Lin Ruo take his pulse and make medicines.

The other is called "Ning Xin Pill", which is a pill prepared by Su Muyu according to the prescription left by Doctor Mo, and occasionally uses the pill to relieve and mediate when there is discomfort. In the Lin Mansion, Lin Ruo's courtyard is the farthest away from the pool, and the sound of water is basically not heard on weekdays; Lin Qian also instructed that the young lady was quiet, and if she was resting, she should not be alarmed. As a result, Lin Ruo hadn't been sick for a long time, she thought she had been cured, but she didn't expect it to have a sudden attack.

"Have you drunk any water?"

If Lin Ruo took the initiative to mention that he wanted to drink water, then it would be no big deal; But if she refuses, she will not be able to resolve the crisis.

Youcao shook her head: "Not yet, but my mind is still quite clear." ”

Su Muyu nodded knowingly: "I'll go get some medicine for her, send it in a while, cook it in the house, let her smell it and calm her nerves." You go into the house and guard her, if there is any situation, let someone inform me immediately! ”

While speaking, Su Muyu's eyes glanced at the silent Leng Shu on the side, only to see that he had a cold face, flashed, and disappeared.

"By the way, you told Lord Rong about Ah Ruo's illness?" After taking a few steps, he stepped back and asked.

Youcao replied: "I accidentally mentioned the Gu Mansion, but I turned away, and the prince shouldn't have guessed the reason." ”

Su Muyu was silent for a moment and nodded: "It's better to be like this." ”

Turning around, without thinking about it anymore, he hurriedly went to grab the medicine.

Murong Chong returned to the palace, Lin Ruo's pale, frightened, and helpless face still lingered in his mind, thinking of the dislike between the Lin and Gu families, and Emperor Mingzong's decision to move the county lord of Shude out of the Gu family regardless of the criticism of the sour and corrupt Confucianism, and changed the surname of the county lord of Minhui to "Lin" and handed him over to the Lin family to raise, so he was confused and went to explore Lin Ruo's past in the Gu mansion without blame.

However, he didn't have much hope to gain anything, and it was just a whim in his heart, after all, many people were also curious about it, but after so many years, they had no gain.

But the two pieces of news that Wu Blame brought to him a few days later surprised him:

First, Lin Ruo went to Gufu, the purpose was unknown, but he found that Lin Ruo's carriage was being followed at that time;

Second, the Gu family actually colluded with King Ye!

Why Lin Ruo was followed that day, Murong Chong didn't know the specific reason, because the person who secretly protected Lin Ruo was cold. Judging from the news he knows so far: Lin Qian didn't know that Lin Ruo had a sudden illness, but Lin Ruo couldn't rest in peace in the wing room for a few days, so he talked bitterly and even used the majesty of an elder to persuade her to go back to the house to rest. went to the Gu Mansion halfway, it should be that the person who was following them was discovered by Leng Shu, and Lin Ruo made a temporary decision. Although he didn't know her purpose, he knew that the woman who was more cunning than a fox should have caused a lot of trouble for the Gu family again.

As for the second piece of news, it is not a trivial matter. Gu Ting, who was trembling and walking on thin ice in front of everyone, colluded with King Ye without anyone noticing. It seems that not only is King Ye not as reckless and arbitrary as everyone assumes, but Gu Ting, the secretary of the ministry, is even more of an old treacherous and cunning guy who needs to be guarded against from time to time. Thinking that King Ye had been repeatedly gaining the upper hand before, Murong Chong couldn't help but associate this with Gu Ting.

What kind of person Gu Ting is, Murong Chong doesn't know too much. But a minister who has been disgusted by Emperor Mingzong for many years, who is respected by everyone, and who seems to have no real power in his hands, can actually persuade King Ye to appoint him, then this Gu Ting is by no means a simple character. A poor talent with no family background, with his appreciation, climbed to the position of a third-grade master step by step, and it is impossible to rely on luck alone.

In today's situation, Gu Ting knew that he was disgusted by Emperor Mingzong, how could he not plan for the future of himself and the Gu Mansion? The prince originally looked down on the Gu family, and later married the daughter of the Marquis of Jingping Su Mansion as the crown princess, with the relationship between Su Muqing and Gu Manxi, Su Muyu and Gu Manxue, that is, Lin Ruo, the Gu family clinging to the prince has another obstacle. And Lin Ruo's marriage contract with himself undoubtedly sentenced Gu Ting to death for trying to curry favor with the prince.

Therefore, Gu Ting has only one choice - to find another prince to support.

Murong Chong's hands couldn't help but clench, he did not hesitate to stand on the side of the prince for the future monarch, although the prince has become more and more unsatisfactory in his words and deeds over the years, but he has never wavered in his choice. This news must be known to the prince, but fortunately, there is such an opportunity in front of him - his henchman deputy Xu Zhan is responsible for escorting the disaster relief grain to Shangyu, he only needs to write this matter in a secret letter and let Xu Zhan hand it over to the prince.
