Chapter 165 Watch
"Yes, Your Majesty, otherwise things at Yaoyuefang wouldn't have gone so smoothly." The thin monkey led the man directly to the carriage parked nearby. "If the Yuan family hadn't been guarding here, they wouldn't have asked Mr. Zhong to go with them. It would have been easier for him to talk to that Steward He."
Zhou Chang couldn't control Prince Yi's body and ran forward two steps. The farther he looked, the darker it became and he could no longer see anything.
"You mean, when we went to Yaoyuefang, there was someone from the Yuan family at the door. Not only that, there have been people guarding here for the past three days..." Prince Yi was muttering to himself, "Is she here too?"
Zhong Yu was so weak that he seemed unable to walk. He managed to move closer and said, "The Yuan family has been here these days. They mainly helped to take care of the people in the Ministry of Revenue and the Imperial Pharmacy, as well as the guards at the palace gates. Otherwise, we wouldn't have to worry so much. They even took care of a few people in the Imperial Guards in private."
"It's been like this for three days and three nights?" Zhou Chang was distracted, and Prince Yi asked again in his consciousness, "Is she here too?"
The thin monkey finally realized who Zhou Chang was asking about: "I met Miss Yuan on the first day, but she told me not to mention it specifically. We went with her to Yaoyuefang just now. Since the prince didn't ask, I didn't say anything."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Zhou Chang's mind was confused, but he could clearly feel these words coming out of his heart uncontrollably. Even his legs were out of control, but he still had to move forward to look for it.
The thin monkey didn't understand what she meant: "The prince didn't ask, maybe Miss Yuan didn't want the prince to be distracted."
Zhou Chang knew in his heart that Yuan Qi must have left and could not be found, but his body just kept moving forward aimlessly without control.
"Your Highness, they must have gone back." Skinny Monkey also stopped Zhou Chang from continuing his search.
At this moment, even my shadow is gone, and I can’t see anything in the past, but my body just moves forward uncontrollably.
The remaining Qingming in Zhou Chang's heart was filled with mixed feelings.
No wonder she could sit back and relax, not even noticing that so many people were cooperating, and naively thought it was all natural.
Now that I think about it, it was all thanks to the Yuan family who were behind the scenes.
During these three days and three nights, she seldom thought of Yuan Qi. She was even so exhausted that she forgot why when she was in a trance. But it turned out that she was not alone, and she would never be alone.
Someone has always been watching over her.
Thinking of this, a warm current rushed up and Prince Yi quickened his pace.
The night wind was chilly, and Zhong Yu's body couldn't resist it after all: "Ahem..., Your Majesty, the frostbite cream has been sent out, and the Yuan family can go back without any worries..."
Zhou Chang stopped walking forcefully. Prince Yi was still looking forward with hope, but he couldn't help but worry about Zhong Yu: "Yes, sir, you should get on the carriage first. You have been very hard these past few days. Your health is the most important thing."
Zhong Yu's body was swaying, and he walked forward with difficulty: "This time, it is indeed thanks to the Yuan family that the matter of Yaoyuefang was settled so quickly. It was Miss Yuan who took the risk and openly violated the imperial ban. The Yuan family really contributed a lot. This time, we can be regarded as helping each other. It can be seen that the saying that businessmen value profit over loyalty is not always true."
Yuan Qi, Yuan Qi...
Zhou Chang's mind unconsciously emerged Yuan Qi Qiuhong's bright and sparkling eyes, the light of confidence and determination, the heroic spirit and heroic demeanor.
"Ahem... Although the prince's actions this time were caused by the Yuan family, what the Yuan family did in this matter is really impeccable. Perhaps there are many things that are unexpected, and the Yuan family has done everything in advance. Yuan Yu is still in the sky prison, and the Yuan family can still do things so meticulously. There is a reason why the Yuan family can become the richest family in the world." Zhong Yu's voice was weak, but he insisted on speaking.
"I understand." Zhou Chang nodded, knowing what Zhong Yu meant by what he said.
However, there was total darkness all around, and Yuan Qi's figure could not be seen at all, and his heart felt empty.
I could only sigh: "Alas... I will find an opportunity to thank Miss Yuan in person later. Besides, I have to settle the money on the account clearly. I can't let others waste money in vain."
Zhong Yushi was a man of letters and had a certain arrogance. Although he maintained a certain degree of humility, he seldom praised anyone. As far as Prince Yi could remember, he had never heard him praise any merchant.
"Cough cough..." Just as they had arrived in front of the carriage, Zhong Yu suddenly started coughing violently.
"Mr. Zhong..."
"Mr. Zhong..."
"Cough cough..." Zhong Yu could no longer answer. As he kept coughing, his body suddenly stiffened and he fell down.
Gao Yuan and Shou Hou were quick to catch it from the side.
Under the moonlight, blood was oozing from the corners of Zhong Yu's mouth.
Zhou Chang panicked and checked his breathing and pulse.
After a while, the cold fingers finally felt a faint breath and pulse.
"Hurry, get in the car, to Siwei Pharmacy, Doctor Meng... Doctor Meng should be in the pharmacy." Zhou Chang's fatigue was swept away by the sudden change.
Several people carried Zhong Yu onto the carriage.
"Your Highness, Mr. Zhong always faints like this, and he won't see a doctor." The skinny monkey was calmer than Zhou Chang. As he spoke, he took out a white gourd porcelain bottle from Zhong Yu's body and put it under his nose. "Mr. Zhong is just overworked. He has had this happen twice before. Have you forgotten, Your Highness? Why don't you go back home first and let Mr. Zhong rest for a few days? He should be better."
Zhou Chang was skeptical, but when he saw that Zhong Yu, who was half held in Gao Yuan's arms, did not wake up after smelling the medicinal oil in the porcelain bottle, his breathing became much smoother, he temporarily compromised: "As you wish, I will go back home first."
"Okay." The skinny monkey lowered the curtain, returned to the front room of the carriage, flicked the reins, and galloped away.
When the carriage stopped in front of the gate of Prince Yi's Mansion, Zhong Yu had half opened his eyes and regained some consciousness.
Zhou Chang again suggested seeing a doctor.
Zhong Yu was speechless, but shook his head weakly.
Zhou Chang searched in Prince Yi's memory, and the previous few situations had all been similarly safe and sound.
There was no other way, so several people worked together to carry Zhong Yu down, carried him to the west yard, and handed him over to Mother Wang.
Mother Wang took the pills she usually took and mixed them with warm water for Zhong Yu to take.
After a while, Zhong Yu's expression softened a little.
"Sir, can you ask Doctor Meng to come over and take a look tomorrow?" Zhou Chang tried to persuade Zhong Yu one last time for the sake of his conscience.
Zhong Yu still shook his head, and regained some strength to speak: "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I know my own body. As long as I have a good rest, I will be fine soon."
"What kind of illness does sir have? How can we feel at ease?" It had only been three months since Zhou Chang took on the identity of Prince Yi Fengming, and Zhong Yu had already fainted three or four times. It was really too frequent.
Zhong Yu frowned with great effort, but still managed to curl the corners of his mouth and smile: "It doesn't matter, homemade pills are the most effective, just take them and you'll be fine."
"In that case, sir, you should eat more supplements on a daily basis. I will ask Monkey to get them from the medicine store tomorrow, and tell Mother Wang to cook them for you. You cannot refuse." Zhou Chang didn't know what else he could do for Zhong Yu.
These days, when it comes to work, Zhong Yucai is actually the real main force, and when it comes to hard work, Zhong Yucai is the one who works the hardest.
"Ahem..." Zhong Yu shook his head with difficulty, and coughed twice before he could speak normally, "Your Majesty, don't worry about me. I know my own body. Why waste those herbs on someone over fifty years old? They should be given to those who can't afford them and are in urgent need of life-saving treatment."
"Didn't you just say 'help each other'?" Zhou Chang was heartbroken.
At this time, Zhong Yu was still thinking about helping others, so what else could she say?
It would be a waste of rest if I persuaded him again, so I just insisted: "As the saying goes, 'help each other when in need, and support each other when in illness', sir, don't refuse. Take the herbs for your own use. If there are any extra, you can do whatever you want with them."
Zhong Yu said nothing more and just nodded slightly.
Zhou Chang did not delay Zhong Yu's rest, and stood up and left the courtyard and returned to the bedroom. "If you were not ugly, you would be quite good-looking;"
