"It's nothing, but your body is still weak. When you go out for a walk, don't walk for too long at once, otherwise your body will not be able to bear it. Take your time." Ling Lihua informed Chujiu softly after checking her pulse.
"Thank you ma'am."
"Thank you, you're welcome." Ling Lihua touched her head, then stood up and said, "Okay, you'd better rest more. There's still something going on over there in the quarantine area, I'm going over there."
"Okay." Chujiu responded and stood up to see her off.
"Don't say goodbye, don't say goodbye. Your body is not completely healed yet. Take a good rest in bed." Ling Lihua held her shoulders and left with a smile.
Chujiu lay down again.
Thinking of going out just now, I almost fainted, and Chujiu didn't dare to bother anymore.
She wanted to take good care of her health and return to Beijing as soon as possible.
In the next two days, I also went out for a walk on Chujiu, but I didn't dare to go that far again.
After listening to Ling Lihua's words, she only walked around in front of the tent and then returned to the tent to rest.
During this period, Lu Tingchen did not appear again.
She heard from Xiao Guo, who was responsible for taking care of her, that Lu Tingchen had not been in the military camp these past two days.
Hearing that Xizuo had sneaked into the city, he went to arrest Xizuo on the order of Duke Zhen.
Lu Tingchen did not appear again, and Chujiu felt at ease.
On the third day, she felt her body was well, so she planned to resign to Ling Lihua and return to Beijing.
But Xiao Guo told her that his wife had left the camp.
During this period, thanks to Ling Lihua and Lu Tingchen's care, she should say thank you to them in person, but Xiao Guo didn't know their whereabouts or when they would come back, and she couldn't afford to wait. She wanted to return to Beijing as soon as possible, so she went to talk to Lu Hetian.
Lu Hetian didn't know her situation, so he agreed when he saw that she seemed fine.
"Be careful on the road." He warned.
"Yes." Chujiu responded, thought of something, and said, "Thanks to the care of my wife and the prince during this period, when you two come back, please let Duke Zhen Guo inform them. I am very grateful to them. Thank you for this." Madam Shiri and the Crown Prince’s care.”
"I will tell them." Lu Hetian nodded.
After bidding farewell to Lu Hetian, Chujiu simply packed his luggage and left the camp on horseback.
She just left, and then Lu Tingchen came back and captured the two craftsmen, intending to extract a confession from them.
However, when he was arresting the two of them, he accidentally fell into their trap and got some paint on his right arm. At this time, the military doctor was bandaging him.
At this moment, Xiao Guo came to report, "Your Majesty, Miss Chujiu left half an hour ago."
When Lu Tingchen heard this, his handsome face immediately darkened, "Who allowed her to leave without my order?"
Seeing his frighteningly serious expression, Xiao Guo felt a little nervous and said truthfully, "It was allowed by Duke Zhen Guo."
Lu Tingchen frowned, pushed the military doctor away, and suddenly stood up, "Xu Chen, prepare your horse!"
Xu Chen was surprised, "Where do you want to go, Prince?"
"Just prepare the horse." Lu Tingchen said solemnly, with a hint of anxiety between his brows.
Xu Chen had no choice but to bring his mount.
Lu Tingchen got on his horse.
"Your Majesty, your injury has not been bandaged yet..." the military doctor said urgently.
What responded to him was the figure of Lu Tingchen speeding away.
Ling Lihua came back from gathering some medicinal herbs. As soon as she entered the camp, she saw her son rushing over, scolding the horse.
"Achen, where are you going?"
"Chu Jiu left, I'll go look for her." Lu Tingchen said hastily, then scolded the horse and left the camp.
