Forcing me to raise a concubine? The mistress of the Marquisate has gone mad

After Shen Ruoyan discovered that Lu Yan had psychological problems, she knew that she couldn't go on like this.

The next day, Doctor Xu came into the mansion to examine Lu Yan.

All the servants in the yard were cleared out, and Qiu Ye was guarding the gate to prevent any blind people from suddenly breaking in and affecting Shen Ruoyan's actions.

The fact that Doctor Xu was treating Lu Yan was still kept a secret until now, even Lu Changchuan didn't know about it.

"Madam, please take a step to speak."

Doctor Xu would come to the mansion regularly to cleanse the toxins in Lu Yan's body. But he also said that this was a process that required a lot of patience and could not be rushed, and even if he was anxious, it would be useless.

"Doctor Xu, just speak frankly."

There were no outsiders here, and Lu Yan was in the inner room, so what they said couldn't be heard.

The wind blew through the leaves, making a rustling sound. It seemed to pass through Shen Ruoyan's heart, arousing her anxiety and uneasiness.

Doctor Xu sighed and said, "Madam, I have said before that this matter cannot be rushed. Today, I can see that the prince's poison is being slowly eliminated, but it still takes time."

This is like peeling a cocoon and pulling out the silk, there is no way to do it in one go. He knew that as a mother, Shen Ruoyan must be anxious. That was her son, her only child, how could she not worry about him?

But, he still said that there is no need to be impatient.

You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Clearing the toxins is one thing, but recovering completely is another.

Fortunately, Lu Yan is young, and although there are toxins in his body, he can recover slowly and recover in the future. If he were older, I'm afraid even he wouldn't dare to guarantee it.

Shen Ruoyan knew that what Doctor Xu said was right. Lu Yan's illness was not something that happened overnight, and she had known it for a long time.

But the reason she asked Doctor Xu to come today was not because she was in a hurry, but because she had something to ask for.

"Doctor Xu, I know Yan'er's condition cannot be cured in an emergency. However, he is not confident in himself now and feels hopeless. I asked you to come here this time because I hope Doctor Xu can help me and give him hope."

"Build hope?" It was the first time that Doctor Xu heard such a request, and he was a little confused.

But Shen Ruoyan slowly said, "Yan'er feels that he can no longer be cured, so he is so pessimistic. If Doctor Xu tells him that he can return to normal in just three years, then he will have hope for the future."

When Doctor Xu heard this, he was shocked.

If Lu Yan is unable to return to normal after three years, wouldn’t he be even more disappointed by then!

No, I’m afraid by that time, it will be truly hopeless!

He told Shen Ruoyan about his concerns, hoping that she would consider it carefully. But Shen Ruoyan had already expected him to think this way, so she smiled and said, "Doctor Xu misunderstood. Three years is just what I said casually. How long it really takes, Doctor Xu has to make a final decision."

The future without a deadline is out of reach.

When the emperor was still a prince, he was also confused about his future.

Compared with other princes, his mother was not of noble birth, his eloquence was not smooth, and he was not liked by the late emperor. So he thought about the position, but never dared to fight for it.

He knew that he was not qualified.

Even though he became her adopted son, she didn't raise his status in her heart. She still felt that he was the neglected prince.

So she planned a beautiful future for him, telling him that within a year, you will become the son that the late emperor admires. In two years, you will be recognized by the civil and military officials. In another year, you will be able to stand on your own and truly embark on your own path to succession!

The emperor believed it, so he became the emperor.

Because he has hope in his heart again and has confidence in himself, he will give his all in every step he takes.

The future that Shen Ruoyan described to him became clearer to him step by step, allowing him to be more determined in his goal - this was also what Lu Yan needed now.

If a person is unwilling to believe in himself, no matter how much others do, it will be in vain.

Lu Yan is now trapped in the cage he drew for himself. What Shen Ruoyan needs to do is to open the door, let the sunshine outside in, and dispel the haze in his heart!

"I understand."

Doctor Xu went in again and took Lu Yan's pulse. This time, Shen Ruoyan did not follow him, because what Doctor Xu said next was the most important.

Her appearance would only make Lu Yan doubt the authenticity of these words.

So, she couldn't go in.

The waiting time is the most torturous. It is a kind of anxious feeling that makes you feel confused and panic, but you know that you must not be anxious at this time, otherwise you will fail!

Shen Ruoyan sat there quietly, drinking her tea slowly. Even Chun Xi, her personal maid, could not tell her emotions at this moment.

She looked so calm and composed, as if she didn't care at all whether Lu Yan would believe what Doctor Xu said.

It makes people feel that even if Lu Yan did not believe what Doctor Xu said, she would definitely have a way to solve it.

Yes, this is the mistress of the Marquis’ Mansion, who can always make people feel at ease.

"Madam, goodbye." Doctor Xu bowed to Shen Ruoyan. When he looked up, their eyes met, and everything was said without words.

Shen Ruoyan said: "Chun Xi, go and see Doctor Xu off."

Chunxi knew that they were going to send people away, so she did not come back immediately after leaving. Instead, she found Qiuye and stayed outside with her.

"Yan'er, what did Doctor Xu say?" Shen Ruoyan asked anxiously after Lu Yan came out.

He thought of Doctor Xu's words, and it felt as if a warm current flowed through his heart, making his cold limbs feel strong again.

However, Lu Yan did not tell the truth.

"Doctor Xu said that everything should remain the same."

After Lu Yan finished writing this, he didn't say anything more. However, he subconsciously avoided Shen Ruoyan's gaze and didn't dare to look her in the eye.

Doctor Xu said that it would only take six years for all the toxins in his body to be eliminated, and after finding the medicine, he would be able to speak again and become a normal person.

Moreover, there is news about the medicinal lead. Doctor Xu has already sent people to look for it. I believe it will be found!

However, Lu Yan didn't want to tell Shen Ruoyan.

Because Doctor Xu did not say anything final, hope was ignited in his heart, and he knew what that feeling was like.

If he fails, he will be very sad.

He didn't want to make his mother sad.

So Lu Yan didn't tell Shen Ruoyan, hoping that she wouldn't have expectations and be hit by disappointment in the end. It was enough for him to bear such pain alone.

If what Dr. Xu said was true, then it would be too late for his mother to be happy after he recovered.

If... then his mother wouldn't have to be as sad as he is.

Shen Ruoyan took in the confusion on his face and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, could it be that God saw that she was deceived so miserably in her previous life, so he sent her such a heartwarming treasure in this life?

It is true that misfortune often brings blessings, and blessings often bring misfortune...
