Mo Chenyuan carried Su Shengsheng all the way out of the palace. When they got on the carriage, Su Shengsheng stopped being shy and jokingly asked, "Is the prince in good health now?"

Mo Chenyuan waved his sleeves and sat down. "How is my health? Didn't the princess know last night?"

"What kind of magic medicine did the prince take?"

Mo Chenyuan approached Su Shengsheng who was joking, "No one else can use my magic medicine."

"Oh?" Su Shengsheng became interested. Is there any magic medicine that Mo Chenyuan can use but others can't?

Su Shengsheng leaned forward against the table, "Then I want to know even more."

Mo Chenyuan's slender fingers gently pinched Shengsheng's chin, "Since Princess is so impatient, I will tell her reluctantly."

Then he picked up Su Shengsheng from the table with one hand and placed her steadily on his lap. Shengsheng immediately felt that something was wrong and stood up to leave.

Mo Chenyuan gently pulled Su Shengsheng's skirt. Because she didn't react in time, Su Shengsheng fell directly into Mo Chenyuan's arms.

Su Shengsheng immediately understood what the panacea Mo Chenyuan was talking about, and her face turned red again.

"Princess, you blush so much. How can I tell you? After all, this kind of thing..."

Su Shengsheng immediately reached out and covered Mo Chenyuan's mouth, "Stop talking."

Mo Chenyuan had his mouth covered by Su Shengsheng, and he didn't make any other movements. He was just teasing Su Shengsheng.

The carriage was moving slowly along the street. The hawkers' shouts outside the carriage could be heard clearly, along with bursts of gossip.

"Hey, did you see that? The body hanging on the city gate seemed to have been beaten to death with clubs, and then hanged on the city gate with only one breath left."

Su Shengsheng's ears moved slightly, and after hearing the voice outside, she let go of Mo Chenyuan's mouth and listened carefully to the conversation outside.

Mo Chenyuan stopped the carriage.

Another voice rang out from outside, "That's right. I heard that it was someone from the palace who seduced the Third Prince, and the Emperor ordered her to be beaten to death. The Third Prince didn't think that was enough, so he had her hung on the city gate for three days."

The person next to him shook his head and sighed, "Oh, this palace maid could seduce anyone else, but she seduced the Third Prince, and at the Third Prince's wedding."

"Alas, the people in the royal family are unfathomable. Who knows what is going on here? Maybe the Third Prince was impatient to get the maid, and when he was discovered, he pushed all the responsibility onto the maid."

Su Shengsheng frowned as she listened in the carriage and looked at Mo Chenyuan, "Do you know about this?"

Mo Chenyuan nodded, "I just found out this morning."

"Did Mo Jingheng really want that maid?"

"Ah."

"In the Imperial Garden?"

Mo Chenyuan nodded again.

Su Shengsheng frowned, recalling what happened yesterday. She remembered that there was no one there when she came out of the Imperial Garden.

According to Concubine Wen, the only person present at the time was Su Qingqing, so how did that palace maid get in?

Su Shengsheng suddenly thought of something. The only possibility was that the palace maid was framed by Concubine Wen.

Mo Chenyuan looked at Su Shengsheng in deep thought, "What's wrong?"

Su Shengsheng expressed her doubts, and Mo Chenyuan said directly after hearing: "Ling Yu."

Ling Yu's voice soon came from outside, "What do you want, my Lord?"

"Go check the people hanging on the city gate."

"Yes."

Su Shengsheng looked at Mo Chenyuan, "Thank you very much, Your Majesty."

"How would you like to thank me, Princess?" Mo Chenyuan played with Su Shengsheng's scattered hair.

Here it comes again. Su Shengsheng tilted her head to one side, "Your Highness, please think about it now..."

"Get out of here! You old woman, you want to see a doctor when you have no money?"

Su Shengsheng was interrupted by the sound outside before she could finish her words. The streets were quite lively today.

Sheng Sheng got up from Mo Chenyuan's arms, opened the curtain, and saw a drug store right opposite. The people inside were driving an old woman out.

Because the old woman was not very mobile, she was dragged to the ground by the people in the store, begging for mercy: "Please be kind, I will give you the money as soon as I have it. My grandson's illness cannot be delayed."

"Old lady, please look carefully. This is a pharmacy, not a charity. If I examine you today, wouldn't it mean that many people will not want to pay for medical treatment?"

The old lady was so anxious that she cried, "I will really give you money. It's a matter of life and death. Please be kind..."

"Get lost!" The man from the pharmacy kicked the old lady to the ground. "Don't come to see a doctor if you don't have money. It's really unlucky."

Su Shengsheng was so angry when she saw this that she jumped off the carriage, "Hey, how can you talk like that?"

The pharmacy boy looked over and said impatiently: "She has no money to see a doctor, so I drove her away to avoid affecting other people's treatment."

Su Shengsheng walked over and helped the old lady up. "You run a shop that treats illnesses and saves lives. Do you really disregard human lives?"

The shop assistant saw that although Su Shengsheng was wearing simple clothes, the material she wore was obviously more expensive than that of ordinary people, so he said in a gentle tone: "Miss, this old lady's grandson has a terminal illness. The doctor in our shop has examined him once, but he couldn't cure him."

The old lady said anxiously: "The doctor didn't see me at all, otherwise I wouldn't come here every day."

"What nonsense are you talking about, old thing?" The young man in the pharmacy looked at the old woman angrily.

Su Shengsheng looked at the younger brother in the medicine shop coldly, "Curing illnesses and saving lives is the primary priority for all medical practitioners in the world. Otherwise, what's the point of learning it?"

"I......"

The boy in the pharmacy was speechless after being criticized.

Su Shengsheng patted the dust off the old lady and asked softly, "Old lady, where is your grandson? I'll help you look."

"This..." The old lady looked embarrassed and looked at Su Shengsheng in disbelief.

The pharmacy boy kindly reminded: "Her grandson is suffering from an epidemic disease, and no one can cure it."

The old lady knew very well that her grandson was suffering from the disease, but she didn't believe that God would be so cruel, so she went around looking for doctors to treat him. However, they all got the same answer: he had the disease and could only wait to die.

She looked at Su Shengsheng gratefully, "Thank you, girl. My grandson's disease is very difficult to cure."

The shop assistant was very proud after hearing this, "Girl, the doctors in our shop can't help, so there really is nothing they can do."

"Are you honored?" Su Shengsheng looked over coldly.

"I....."

More and more people gathered around to watch the excitement. Someone in the crowd kindly reminded her, "Girl, they are all refugees from the south. They walked all the way to the capital. Who knows what diseases they might have contracted on the way. You'd better be careful and don't get infected."

Su Shengsheng was shocked and asked the old lady, "You all came from the south?"

The old lady nodded, "Yes."

When Mo Chenyuan heard that they were all refugees from the south, he frowned slightly and got off the carriage.

The last time Su Qingqing met those refugees on the street, she knew there would definitely be an epidemic, but she didn't expect it to come so soon.

Mo Chenyuan walked to Su Shengsheng and asked coldly, "Where are those refugees?"

When the old lady saw Mo Chenyuan, she was shocked by his powerful aura and immediately bent down. "They are all in a shabby village outside the city."

Mo Chenyuan glanced coldly at the boy in the pharmacy, "From now on, this pharmacy belongs to the Regent Princess, and all refugees in the city can come here for treatment."
