Chu Jihan picked up his mother-in-law and placed her on the bed, while Su Ningxin ordered the maid to inform Princess Anjun in the front yard that the princess had passed out.
After covering his mother-in-law with a quilt, Chu Jihan looked at Su Ningxin, "Don't you need to prescribe a prescription for your mother-in-law?"
He knew that Su Ningxin was good at medicine, so he didn't ask for another doctor.
"It's the medicine that contains three parts of the poison. Mother and concubine should be fine after taking a rest." Su Ningxin replied seriously.
[What prescription should I prescribe? It might be better for my concubine to prescribe some sweat medicine to let her sleep a little longer. It's all your fault. If it weren't for you, how could I not have noticed my concubine coming over? Why didn't I wear a veil? It's your fault for scaring the mother-in-law.]
Scared? Chu Jihan listened to Su Ningxin's words. Although his face was calm, he kept analyzing the meaning in his heart. Su Ningxin had a good appearance. The mother and concubine could not be frightened because of Su Ningxin's scary appearance. , it can only be because of Su Ningxin’s identity.
Before this, Chu Jihan had heard from Su Ningxin's thoughts that she had met her mother and concubine. Now it seems that Su Ningxin's identity should be more unusual than he guessed, otherwise his mother would not be allowed to The concubine was so surprised.
"Why does it look like my mother-in-law was frightened by something she saw?"
Chu Jihan asked tentatively, trying to guide Su Ningxin to think about her previous identity. Based on Chu Jihan's understanding of Su Ningxin, she should think like this, [Of course she will be scared, Lao Zhi used to be ... , if it were you, you would be frightened and pass out.]
In this way, he could easily know what Su Ningxin's previous identity was. Chu Jihan was contentedly idle.
Hearing Chu Jihan's question, Su Ningxin was silent for a moment, and then said with a look of disbelief, "You are so powerful, my husband, why are you so superstitious? I'd better not say anything like this in the future."
Su Ningxin looked disappointed, "How sad it would be if the mother-in-law heard this. She worked so hard to arrange your marriage, but you think she is possessed."
[Looking at your human appearance, I thought you were an upright scholar, but I didn’t expect you to believe in ghosts and gods. Tsk, tsk, tsk, the environment is really scary.]
Chu Jihan looked at Su Ningxin's performance with an expressionless face, resisting the urge to hold his forehead. How come this development was completely different from what he imagined.
Before Chu Jihan could explain anything, Prince An hurried over, leaving behind all the maids who went to invite him. As soon as he entered the door, he ignored Chu Jihan and Su Ningxin and rushed to the princess's bed to pull her. The princess began to mutter with her hands, "What's going on? Why did you faint?"
Chu Jihan couldn't bear it any longer this time and put his hand on his forehead helplessly. In the end, he couldn't stand the embarrassment of Prince An, so he stepped forward to comfort him, "Father, there is nothing wrong with mother and concubine. Just rest." ”
"You still dare to speak, why did your mother-in-law suddenly fainted?" Hearing Chu Jihan's voice, Prince An suddenly became furious and pointed at Chu Jihan's nose and asked.
Chu Jihan took a step back and let his father's fingers leave his flattened nose, "Concubine, are you just too tired, or are you angry?"
Prince An looked at the princess with her eyes closed and began to recall. It seemed that she had complained about him for half an hour in the morning. Could it be that she was really angry with him
"Why haven't you seen the doctor?" King An's questioning tone was a little weaker this time.
Seeing that Prince An was feeling guilty, Chu Jihan took the initiative this time, "Ning'er knows medical skills, so what kind of doctor do you want? Tell Ning'er quickly and explain why you are so angry with your mother and concubine. You still need heart medicine for your heart ailments." , Only if you explain clearly the illness of the concubine can the disease be cured."
"This..." Prince An frowned hesitantly, and then asked Su Ningxin tangledly, "Can I admit my mistake to your mother and concubine in a low voice?"
Su Ningxin glared at Chu Jihan before replying softly, "Father, just wait until mother and concubine wake up and talk to her privately."
Seeing Prince An nod with relief, Su Ningxin asked, "Father, we have to leave the city as soon as possible. Have you packed up?"
"Why do you suddenly want to go back to Daming Mansion? Do you have to leave today? Your mother and concubine are still unconscious. How can you have a good rest on the road." Prince An asked worriedly.
"Father, don't worry, just put a few more layers of velvet cushions on the carriage. Besides, my mother and concubine just said, 'It's really time to go back to Daming Mansion earlier.'"
I heard that the princess agreed, and Prince An had no objections. However, he was also curious that the princess came here just to ask why. She still had several handkerchiefs she had not met before leaving the cabinet, and wanted to spend more time in the capital. After staying for a while, why did he suddenly agree to go back immediately
"Your mother-in-law said that she will leave immediately to return to Daming Mansion?" Prince An asked uncertainly.
"Yes, the concubine said it herself before she fell into coma. If you don't believe me, ask your husband." When Su Ningxin said this, she tilted her head and looked at Chu Jihan, winking mischievously.
Chu Jihan laughed a little, and when he met his father's questioning eyes, he could only nod his head, "My mother-in-law said so."
Although Chu Jihan felt that the meaning of his mother's words had a lot to do with the situation at that time, if the father just asked his mother if she had said it, then she had indeed said it.
Prince An asked Chu Jihan why he suddenly wanted to return to Daming Mansion. Only then did Chu Jihan realize that the person who insisted on returning to Daming Mansion was actually him!
After Su Ningxin said again that she wanted to go back and burn incense for her ancestors, Prince An looked at Su Ningxin with very satisfied eyes and couldn't help but praise, "I knew you were a well-educated and sensible child before. I didn’t expect it to be so thoughtful, don’t worry, I’ve asked the butler to pack his bags and we’ll be leaving soon.”
Half an hour later, Prince An's family got into a carriage and left the city. Although it was a light carriage, there were eight carriages accompanying them. As for the other belongings and Su Ningxin's dowry, they would arrange for the escort agency to slowly deliver them to Daming Mansion.
When leaving the city, Su Ningxin lifted the curtain and looked outside. There were still many imperial guards guarding the city gate, and everyone entering and exiting had to be carefully inspected before letting them go.
Even the carriage of Prince An was no exception. Fortunately, they also took into account the identity of the Prince and let them go after taking a few glances to make sure there were no hidden people.
When the carriage drove out of the city gate, Su Ningxin held her hands tightly, fearing that the emperor's order would not only capture the queen, but also their two accomplices.
Just when Su Ningxin was nervous, her clenched hand was suddenly completely wrapped in Chu Jihan's big hand. Su Ningxin looked up with confusion.
Chu Jihan smiled reassuringly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
"Yeah." Su Ningxin responded lightly.
[Who is afraid! Are you afraid that you will give me away? Speaking of which, as a member of the emperor, is it really okay for you to run away like this at this time? You don't want to rebel, do you?]
Chu Jihan beat his chest and coughed twice. It was indeed a foolish dream to have a warm scene with Su Ningxin.
