The soft-waisted princess was pinched and pampered by the ascetic prince after her rebirth

When Shen Ruzhou arrived at the General's Mansion, Shen Chumu hadn't come back yet, so she simply sat in the main hall and waited.

Unexpectedly, the wait lasted more than two hours.

At midnight, Shen Chumu came back drunk.

Shen Ruzhou was furious and stood in front of the hall with a cold face.

Shen Chumu's steps were unsteady and he staggered forward. He tripped on the steps in front of the hall and was about to fall. Shen Ruzhou hurriedly stepped forward to support him and said angrily: "Why do you drink so much wine?"

Most of Shen Chumu's body weight rested on Shen Ruzhou. He turned his head and looked over, making a silent gesture.

"Keep your voice down, father is about to curse if he hears it." Shen Ruzhou didn't want Shen Chumu to be punished, so he had to help him back to his room.

When they arrived in the room, Shen Ruzhou put Shen Chumu on the bed and began to ask, "What have you been doing?"

"Princess Changqing and I went horseback riding in the countryside. She hunted a rabbit and roasted it until it was charred. I thought it was boring to just eat meat, so I asked someone to buy wine. We drank and ate meat and had a great time."

Shen Chumu leaned on the pillow and spoke as if talking in his sleep.

After hearing this, Shen Ruzhou felt his scalp numb. His brother actually went drinking with the princess?

"Shen Chumu, do you know what you are doing?" Shen Ruzhou grabbed his collar and wanted to shake him awake. Unexpectedly, the other party stretched out his long arm and put it around Shen Ruzhou's neck. "Princess, it's refreshing enough. Let's go drink tomorrow." ah."

Are you so drunk that you can't even recognize him? Shen Ruzhou pushed him away with disgust and was about to get up and leave, but Shen Chumu grabbed her again, burped and said, "Princess, I recognize you as my brother, and I will cover you in Kyoto from now on." Holding you."

Shen Ruzhou felt angry and funny. His silly brother had turned the princess into a brother.

Shen Ruzhou spent a lot of effort to place his brother in place, covered him with a quilt, and then left the room.

In the yard, Shen Mu stood with his hands behind his hands, looking very lonely. When he saw Shen Ruzhou coming out, he frowned and said, "Is Chu Mu sleeping?"

"Yes." Shen Ruzhou lowered his head and replied, looking at his father secretly.

Shen Mu moved his lips, hesitated again and again, and finally said nothing.

Shen Ruzhou knew from the look on his father's face that he had already guessed Emperor Yong'an's intention, so he asked bravely: "Father, if the emperor really wants my brother to marry the princess, what should we do?"

Shen Mu looked up at the full moon in the sky and said calmly: "What can I do? Of course I have to kneel down to receive the order and thank the emperor for his kindness."

"What about Sister Rulan?" Shen Ruzhou's eyes were sore and he said impatiently, "She has liked my brother for so many years, and my grandmother also intended to make it happen."

Shen Mu turned around, looked at Shen Ruzhou with stern eyes, and said seriously: "Do you know how many people will die in the war between the two countries? If marriage can avoid war, let alone letting Chu Mu marry the princess, even if Chu Mu is allowed to die, our Shen family will also recognize."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was an exclamation from the corridor next to him.

Shen Ruzhou looked around and saw Shen Rulan covering her mouth with tears on her face.

Under the cold night, Shen Rulan's body was as thin as a weak flower and would fall over when the wind blew.

Shen Rulan suppressed the pain in her heart, walked to Shen Mu, lifted up her dress and knelt down, "Father, Rulan understands and will not force anything."

Shen Ruzhou helped her up distressedly, held her hand, and comforted her silently.

In the past few days, everyone in the capital was speculating on who Princess Changqing would marry, and even the medical clinic could always hear various voices.

Some talked about the prince, some talked about Shen Chumu, and some even talked about An Yitang.

After hearing this, Shen Ruzhou smiled and remained noncommittal.

The business of the medical clinic was as prosperous as ever, and Shen Ruzhou sat in front of the medical case without any leisure for a moment.

After sending away a troublesome patient, Shen Ruzhou rubbed his forehead tiredly and told Miaodong, "Let's stop here today. I'm a little tired."

Miaodong obediently agreed, got up and closed the door. Just as the bolt was being lowered, a man suddenly squeezed in. The man was very strong and muscular.

Miaodong couldn't help but become alert, "Who are you? What are you going to do?"

The visitor had an arrogant attitude and looked at people with his nostrils, "I am a thug from Ruyi Gambling House...man, ask your lady to come with me and redeem him with ten thousand taels of silver."

Hearing that he was from a gambling shop, Miaodong's eyes flashed with disdain, "You've found the wrong place. People from our medical clinic won't gamble."

The waiter sat down on the chair with a stern tone and said in a threatening tone, "Our shopkeeper has said that if you don't redeem Mr. Shen, we will remove our arms and legs when the time comes. Don't regret it."

Miaodong had been with Shen Ruzhou for a long time and was very courageous. How could he be frightened by these two or three words? He put his hands on his waist and said sternly: "Stop fooling people, you are just watching the medical clinic make money and want to steal it." One stroke, we won’t be fooled.”

The conversation between the two fell into Shen Ruzhou's ears word for word. Shen Ruzhou thought about the word "Master Shen" over and over in his mind, and suddenly an idea flashed and he guessed it couldn't be his brother.

She walked out of the inner room and said to the clerk: "I can give you ten thousand taels of silver, but I want to see someone first."

"Okay." The boy agreed as soon as he heard that the money was secured.

When Miao Dong saw this, she wanted to persuade her, but Shen Ruzhou grabbed her and continued: "Wait a minute, I will get the money and then I will go to the gambling house with you."

After that, he took Miaodong into the back hall.

Shen Ruzhou opened the door of the darkroom, then squatted down to a box and counted out ten thousand taels of silver notes.

After entering the gambling house and stumbling into a small room, Shen Ruzhou saw Shen Chumu sitting back on a chair in boredom. Next to him, a bright and heroic-looking woman was playing with the dice in her hand with great interest.

Shen Ruzhou guessed that this woman was Princess Changqing. Seeing Shen Chumu smiling apologetically at her, she didn't feel like saying anything, so she simply handed over the money and took the two of them back to the hospital.

As soon as she arrived at the hospital, Shen Chumu had a smile on her face and said sheepishly: "Princess Changqing has never been to a gambling house and wanted to take a look, so we went in. We originally wanted to try a few games, but she became more and more confused. The more addicted you become, the more you lose without realizing it.”

Shen Ruzhou wanted to curse, but it was difficult for Princess Changqing to do so.

On the other side, Princess Changqing was still spinning the dice in her hand, and said thoughtfully: "I think there must be skills here. With more practice, I will be able to throw as many points as I want."

Seeing her focused look, Shen Ruzhou kindly reminded her, "There are indeed skills in this, and there are even some shady tricks. Princess can just play it, there is no need to study hard."

"That's it." Princess Changqing suddenly said. She put away the dice, looked up at the room, and asked hesitantly, "Is this a medical clinic?"

"Yes, my sister drove it." Shen Chumu answered with a bit of pride in his tone.

Princess Changqing walked around the medical clinic and asked curiously, "Chu Mu, why did your sister open a medical clinic?"

Shen Ruzhou's eyes darkened as he listened to the conversation between the two. One called the other person Changqing, and the other called him Chu Mu. It had only been two days, but they were already so familiar?

Shen Chumu completely ignored his sister's surprise and leaned close to Chang Qing and began to explain, "My sister and her husband did not want to go home, so they set up their own business outside and opened a medical clinic to settle down."

Princess Changqing looked at Shen Ruzhou with admiration in her eyes, "Can a woman live like this?"

"Why not?" Shen Ruzhou's brows were full of confidence and dazzling light, "When you are alive, you have to do what you want to do. Why should you be bound by ethics and care about worldly perspectives."

As soon as these words came out, Princess Changqing's confusion that had been lingering in her heart for many years was answered. She smiled at Shen Ruyi, "Miss Shen is sober and wise, Changqing has learned a lesson."

Shen Ruzhou replied humbly: "Princess, you're welcome. Ruzhou just expressed his inner thoughts. It's good that the princess doesn't think it's ridiculous."
