She had never interacted with him much in her previous life, but this time when she entered the palace, Bei Xiuyan spoke with great weight in front of the emperor. If Bei Xiuyan hadn't spoken for her again and again, she would have been beheaded by the emperor. It would have been impossible. Strive for the opportunity to treat the imperial concubine.

Lu Huaining also said that although Beixiu Yan was ruthless in his methods, he had a family, a country, and great righteousness in his heart. If he entrusted Beixiu Yan with delivering medicine, he might be able to succeed.

Just as she was thinking, Miaodong suddenly knocked on the door outside.

"Miss, Master Lu is here."

Hearing this, Shen Ruzhou put away the medicine box and responded: "I understand, let him in."

Not long after, Lu Huaining walked in with a smile.

"Sister, your yard is really nice. It's quiet and elegant. There are so many flowers in the yard. It's really beautiful. I will come here often in the future."

"Okay, my door here will always be open for you." Shen Ruzhou smiled and got him a cup of tea with his own hands.

"Didn't we just break up? Why did you come to see me again?"

Lu Huaining curled his lips and said dissatisfied.

"Master had something to discuss with my sister just now, but King Wucheng was also here, so it was difficult to talk."

"So, I'm here to invite my sister to the palace for a talk. If nothing happens, please come with me."

Shen Ruzhou's eyes moved slightly, guessing that it was to treat the imperial concubine, "Okay, let's go."

"Miaodong, just stay and look after the house. I'll be right back."

Miao Dong nodded in agreement.

Shen Ruzhou got on the carriage.

Under a tree not far from the house, Chang Lin watched Shen Ruzhou and Lu Huaining leave in a carriage with a very ugly look on his face.

Ever since he came back from the palace, the prince asked him to keep an eye on Shen Ruzhou. He didn't expect that Shen Ruzhou was so disorderly. He just moved out of the palace and left with someone else, and he was still from the regent's palace.

Could it be that Shen Ruzhou moved out to facilitate contact with the people in the Regent's Palace? Did she really want to join forces with the Regent to deal with the prince?

This is not a trivial matter, I must go back to the mansion immediately and inform the prince!

……

Shen Ruzhou arrived at the Regent's Mansion.

Shen Ruzhou followed Lu Huaining and walked along the veranda, watching Bei Xiuyan in the courtyard from a distance, holding a long sword and practicing swordplay alone.

He was wearing a straight black robe, and his tall and tall figure moved with the sword as swiftly as an eagle.

And on his stunning face, his expression was as pale as water and as cold as ice. When the silver light flashed by, you could see his eyes, which were like the stars on a winter night.

He was dancing with his sword in the courtyard, while the servants stood under the eaves with their heads bowed, not daring to take a look or take a breath.

But Shen Ruzhou was not afraid at all and looked at the Beixiu Banquet wordlessly with admiration in his eyes.

I heard that Bei Xiuyan was so good at martial arts that he rarely faced any rivals. His father and brother always praised him. When we saw him today, he was indeed extraordinary.

Seeing her serious expression, Lu Huaining pursed her lips and smiled.

He leaned close to Shen Ruzhou's ear and whispered.

"How are you doing, sister? My master is handsome, isn't he?"

This is not a hundred times stronger than that Xiao Chenyan!

Shen Ruzhou looked at the Beixiu Banquet and chuckled, approving from the bottom of his heart.

"It's really great."

Lu Huaining nodded with satisfaction.

"My master is not only good at swordsmanship, but he also strategizes on the battlefield and uses troops like a god. On the battlefield, he is also proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. He is truly an all-rounder!"

While Shen Ruzhou was enjoying the Beixiu banquet, he looked at Lu Huaining, "Okay, I know your master is unparalleled in the world."

Lu Huaining chuckled twice and raised his face, full of pride.

He has been determined to be like his master since he was a child. Unfortunately, he is not in good health and cannot learn martial arts from his master. Otherwise, even if he learns two points of swordsmanship, it will be enough.

"Master allows sister to see his skills, which shows that he does not treat you as an outsider."

"Really?" Shen Ruzhou was stunned and smiled: "Then I really..."

Before the word "honor" could be uttered, the long sword suddenly struck Shen Ruzhou with a sharp sword energy, and in an instant it stopped in front of him.

When the maid on the side saw it, she was so frightened that she took a few steps back. Lu Huaining was also slightly stunned and said anxiously: "Master!"

Only the expression on Shen Ruzhou's stunning face remained motionless. His eyes were as clear and bright as a stream of autumn water, and the silver-white sword light reflected in the eyes turned into a trace of coldness.

The sword came suddenly. Although she was surprised, she was not panicked. After all, she had been a queen in her previous life and had seen a lot of storms. This really didn't scare her.

What's more, although the sword came quickly and violently, it had no killing intent, and she was his partner, so there was no way he could kill her.

Bei Xiuyan narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw that she was not hiding.

"As expected of the legitimate daughter of the General's Mansion, she is quite courageous."

The corners of Shen Ruzhou's lips were slightly raised, and a faint smile spread from her lips. She stretched out her fingers, put them on the sword, and slowly pushed away the tip of the sword that was pointed directly at the center of her eyebrows.

"Prince Regent."

Bei Xiuyan's eyes were dark, he took back his sword and said in a calm voice: "When I am practicing my sword, I don't like others making noise, so go into the room and talk."

With a wave of his hand, he put the long sword into its sheath with a "whoosh" sound, and then turned around and walked towards the study.

Lu Huaining looked at his back, then looked at Shen Ruzhou worriedly, and said softly: "Sister, are you not scared?"

"It's okay." Shen Ruzhou shook his head and chuckled, then followed into the study.

The maid handed over a handkerchief, and Bei Xiuyan took it and wiped it gently. The slender fingers had clear joints and glowed like white jade.

He picked up the prepared herbal tea and took a sip. Then he looked at Shen Ruzhou and went straight to the point: "You have seen the imperial concubine's illness. Can it be cured?"

Shen Ruzhou said: "There is hope, but the concubine is not pregnant with triplets, and she will not be able to give birth to three children. Her belly is so big because of abdominal hydrops, which is a disease."

Bei Xiuyan looked at Shen Ruzhou, a trace of doubt flashing in his cold eyes.

Although Shen Ruzhou had already explained it in the palace, he didn't understand medical skills and still didn't understand.

Lu Huaining didn't know the situation of the pulse diagnosis at that time. Now when he heard Shen Ruzhou say that the imperial concubine had only one child with such a big belly, he was quite surprised and opened his eyes wide.

"Everyone thought that the imperial concubine was pregnant with three dragon fetuses at once, and the emperor was extremely happy. I'm afraid it would be difficult for the imperial concubine and the emperor to accept the fact that these three have become one?"

"It was a misdiagnosis at the beginning." Shen Ruzhou sighed and said in a serious voice: "There are several children who are secondary. The key is that the imperial concubine must be treated as soon as possible."

"Her belly is so big because of imbalance of liver, spleen and kidney function, qi stagnation, blood stasis, and water stagnant in the abdomen. If the accumulated water is not discharged as soon as possible, it will cause great damage to her body."

Bei Xiuyan opened his lips and said, "Does it have to be induced now?"

Shen Ruzhou nodded, "Exactly."

"Inducing labor?" Lu Huaining said in surprise. Although he was young, he also knew that premature birth was very dangerous.

"The imperial concubine has only been pregnant for seven months. If she gives birth now, will the child survive after birth?"
