Xia Dongchun from Legend of Zhen Huan: I want to live till the last episode

After Noble Lady Fucha left, An Lingrong held onto Zhen Huan and said, "Sister, please stop arguing. Noble Lady Fucha will definitely not give it to me. Your efforts will be in vain."

Zhen Huan sighed and frowned slightly: "She is going too far. Those medicinal herbs were originally for the entire Yanxi Palace."

An Lingrong smiled helplessly: "It's okay, I'm used to it. I'll ask Baojuan to get some later."

"If it was that easy, I wouldn't have fought with her just now." Zhen Huan was helpless, "This thing is very precious now. There are a few in each palace and garden. The one in Yanxi Palace has already been given away. It may be difficult for you to ask for it again."

……

There was such a loud noise outside just now that Xia Dongchun did hear it, but since Yin Zhu didn't seem to need her support, she didn't go out.

Yin Zhu put away the herbs before coming to see Xia Dongchun. As soon as she entered the room, she apologized: "I acted on my own today. Please forgive me, young master."

Xia Dongchun was not someone who didn't know right from wrong, so how could she blame Yin Zhu? She immediately asked her to stand up: "What are you talking about? You did it for me, how can I blame you?"

After hearing what Xia Dongchun said in person, Yin Zhu felt relieved: "Then I'll go and boil the vinegar first. This has been done in the palace for the past two days."

"Okay, go ahead." Xia Dongchun nodded, and then said, "By the way, ask the nurse to bring the princess over for me to see."

Yin Zhu agreed and walked out.

On the other side, Zhen Huan came out of the Yanxi Palace and was walking on the way back to the Suiyuxuan. There were also young eunuchs boiling vinegar and fumigating medicine on the palace road. The smell was a bit choking, and Zhen Huan couldn't help but cover her nose with a handkerchief.

As soon as I turned a corner, I saw Xiao Yunzi running towards me in a hurry.

"My lady, something bad has happened, my lady." Xiao Yunzi saw Zhen Huan and said hurriedly without even catching her breath.

"What's wrong? If you have something to say, just say it nicely. Don't be afraid of offending the young lady." Jin Xi frowned.

Xiao Yunzi said "Ah", took a breath, and then said: "Miss Meizhuang has been infected with the plague!"

"What?!" Zhen Huan's legs went weak, she staggered and almost fell.

Fortunately, Jinxi supported her in time, and then she hurried to Xianfu Palace. Jinxi and Xiao Yunzi followed behind her, and no matter how they tried to persuade her, she wouldn't stop.

……

"Who are you talking about?" Xia Dongchun was holding Ling Yuan and was stunned when he heard the words, "Shen Meizhuang was infected with the plague?"

"Yes, I heard about it when I went to get the vinegar." Yin Zhu replied, "I heard that the disease is very severe and Ms. Shen has a high fever and is unconscious now."

"Isn't she under house arrest?" Xia Dongchun couldn't figure it out, so he asked, "How could she be infected with the epidemic if she didn't go out? Isn't it said that you can only get it if you touch it?"

Yin Zhu shook her head: "I don't know about this."

Xia Dongchun waved his hand, signaling her to leave.

After Yun Ling, Xia Dongchun and Ling Yuan, who was sleeping soundly in Xia Dongchun's arms, were the only ones left in the room, Yun Ling asked, "My lady, do you suspect that someone deliberately caused Ms. Shen to be infected with the plague?"

Yun Ling had actually heard of this incident in her previous life. When Concubine Hua fell, Noble Lady Cao confessed a series of crimes committed by Concubine Hua, which seemed to include giving Shen Meiyu tea sets used by a palace maid who was infected with the plague, causing Shen Meiyu to contract the plague and almost lose her life.

But she didn't mention it to Xia Dongchun specifically. She couldn't tell Xia Dongchun everything in advance. She had to let Xia Dongchun grow on his own.

But if Xia Dongchun asked her, she would not deliberately hide it.

"It's not that I doubt it, I just find it a little strange." Xia Dongchun was afraid of waking up the daughter in his arms, so he spoke in a much lower voice.

Yun Ling said, "If I remember correctly, someone did it on purpose when Shen agreed to contract the epidemic. However, this matter has nothing to do with us. Everyone has their own destiny. If I were to start over with my young master, I really couldn't take care of so many people, nor could I change so many things. My young master doesn't have to worry too much."

Hearing this, Xia Dongchun laughed: "Yunling, what are you thinking about? I'm not worried about you, and I don't care about others, but... Shen Meizhuang was framed like this, so we should be careful, so as not to fall into the trap of others and die in vain without knowing what happened."

Yun Ling didn't expect her to think this way, and immediately realized that she was overthinking, so she said, "It turns out that I was thinking wrong. I thought the young lady was soft-hearted and wanted to help Shen Da Ying."

"She and I have no grudges against each other, and it would be best if we don't offend each other. If she helps out of personal preference, that's fine, but if she's deliberately planning to help, forget it." Xia Dongchun cherishes the opportunity to start over, not to mention that she now has a daughter, so she just wants to take care of the people around her.

"It's best if you think this way, young lady." Yun Ling was very happy. "Shall I go and call the wet nurse? The princess has fallen asleep. My hands will get sore if I hold her like this all the time."

"Okay." Xia Dongchun nodded.

On the other side, An Lingrong was sitting on the couch, holding a sachet in her hand, her needle and thread suspended in mid-air, having not moved for a long time.

Baojuan was very worried when she saw this, guessing that she was still worried about the medicinal materials: "Don't be afraid, my lady. If it really doesn't work, we can ask Concubine Wan for some first, or we can tell the Queen and let her make the decision for us."

An Lingrong shook her head: "Noble Lady Fucha is pregnant. Even the Empress would not be able to say anything to her at this time."

"Then I'll go ask for some from Lady Wan." Baojuan asked, "My young lady, you are weak, and the epidemic is so severe now. You can't do without medicine. I heard that Lady Shen has fallen ill. We can't take risks. Lady Shen is under house arrest now. She is a criminal. If she gets sick, it doesn't matter. But my young lady, you are favored by the emperor recently. If you get sick and look disabled, how can you keep the favor you have worked so hard to get?"

"But everyone has a certain amount of medicinal herbs." An Lingrong seemed a little hesitant. "My herbs were taken away by Noble Lady Fucha. How can I ask for the herbs from Sister Wan?"

"My lady, you and Concubine Wan have always been like sisters, so you should share happiness and difficulties. Concubine Wan also knows that your medicinal herbs were snatched away by Concubine Fucha. Logically, Concubine Wan should have sent the herbs to her sisters when they are in trouble. Now that she is not here to send them, can't we go and ask for some? We only need a little bit to tide us over the difficulties first. We don't want Concubine Wan to give us all the herbs."

Baojuan's voice seemed to have the power to bewitch. An Lingrong listened and remained silent for a long time. Just when Baojuan thought she had to add fuel to the fire, An Lingrong spoke:

"Tell Juqing to go to her sister's place."

This is consent.

Baojuan's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, which quickly disappeared, and her face was beaming with joy: "Yes, I will call Juqing right away."
