"Your Highness, no, if you continue to ride like this, your legs will be..."
The imperial physician was shocked when he heard Murong Kai's words. He hurriedly tried to persuade him, saying that he had just been injured and his bones had not yet been healed, but he was going on a long journey. Did he really want to give up his legs
"Just go and prepare. I have something important to do."
“What could be more important than…” The imperial physician wanted to persuade him further, but after he opened his mouth, he found that Murong Kai’s mind had already flown away to who knows where else.
The imperial physician shut up awkwardly. What the master planned was their business and they should not interfere. Just now, he was just acting as a doctor and because the patient was too uncooperative...
"Go and prepare the medicine. Don't worry, I will still take it." Murong Kai gave the order softly and continued to be in a trance.
The imperial physician could only agree to leave, but in his mind and heart all he could think of was the scene of Murong Kai sitting desolately on the bed.
The third prince was the gentlest among all the princes. When he was sick before, he would do what they said as long as they told him to do so. He used to be the most obedient patient, but this patient became stubborn and he really couldn't handle it.
The Third Prince had given the order, so he could only obey. Everyone knew that the Third Prince was the most favored prince in the palace. Even his disobedience to the order had been forgotten.
I'm afraid even the emperor won't stop him from doing what he insists on doing, right
Murong Kai ordered the eunuch who served him to pack up his things and wait for the imperial physician to deliver the medicine. He took the herbs and ordered the eunuch to set off.
The young eunuch then understood that the Third Prince had asked him to pack up in order to leave the palace.
"Your Highness, no, your legs will be crippled if you leave the palace now." The young eunuch has followed Murong Kai for many years and is most concerned about Murong Kai's health. He cannot bear to see the third prince's legs become crippled.
"If you don't go, I'll go by myself." Murong Kai didn't waste any words. After he finished speaking, he struggled to get up and sit in the wheelchair not far away. The young eunuch wanted to lend a hand, but he ignored him.
Murong Zheng had just got off the bed when he fell to the ground because he couldn't use his legs to exert force. The young eunuch reached out his hand several times, but was blocked by him.
Watching him struggling to crawl towards the wheelchair, the eunuch finally compromised: "My Lord and Master, I will help you get on the wheelchair. I will accompany you wherever you want to go. Please don't abandon me. Just don't use me."
The young eunuch knew Murong Kai's temperament. Although he looked easy-going and did everything according to the rules, his decisions could not be disobeyed.
If it were usual, Murong Kai might have really left the little eunuch alone, but now, his legs didn't even have any strength at all, and he was half disabled. Without the little eunuch's help, let alone leaving the palace, even getting on a wheelchair would require some twists and turns.
"Help me up, we'll leave tonight." Murong Kai ordered softly, his words full of urgency.
Ah Man has been gone for about half a day. If I ride as fast as I can, I should be able to catch up with her in two days, right
But after they met, what should he say or do? He didn't even think about it, he just wanted to catch up with her, as if as long as he caught up with her, the huge void in his heart would be filled.
"Your Highness, it's already night, and every place is under strict inspection. I'm afraid that as soon as we leave, the Emperor and the Empress will know about it. They value your body, so they will naturally not let you do anything reckless."
The young eunuch listened to Murong Kai talking about his plan and reminded him softly that he also wanted Murong Kai to stay, but he was now very sure that it was impossible, so all he could do was to help him think it through, and then the two of them left smoothly.
"There is a way to get out." What the little eunuch didn't notice was that when Murong Kai spoke, the corners of his mouth were raised.
He still remembered how Ah Man looked when he asked her to crawl through the dog hole. Her brilliant starry eyes were shining, brighter than the stars in the sky, burning in his heart like fire.
