In a world where there are more men than women, I am spoiled

"My lady... don't walk so fast, Consort Pei is making you angry, don't ignore me." Lin Zixu immediately chased after him and called out.

The eldest prince raised an eyebrow at Pei Yuqi and said with a smile, "I didn't expect Yuqi... to have learned to be so... naughty?"

"Thank goodness, thank goodness. Why is Your Highness back at this hour?" Pei Yuqi asked with a smile, following in the direction Su Yueyao had gone.

"My lord sent someone to tell me to come back. Yuqi, you should be at the shop at this hour. Why are you back too?"

"I was also notified by someone sent by my lord to return."

"Your Majesty was feeling unwell yesterday. Is it worse today?" the First Prince asked.

"I don't know. Yuan Yi took my pulse and said I'm fine. Let's go to the study to check."

"Row!"

The eldest prince had only taken a few steps when he noticed Tian Yunsheng and Feng Qi following behind him.

"My lady, you should stay with her today. My lord, don't say anything more to her, lest she worry."

"I understand, elder brother. Sister Yue and Brother Yunsheng will take good care of her," Feng Qi replied.

"Okay, then, I'll go with Consort Pei to see the Lord."

After the eldest prince finished speaking, he went to the study in the front yard with Pei Yuqi.

Meanwhile, in the study in the front yard, Yang Qianxun was half-lying on a soft couch, clutching his chest, struggling to breathe. He looked noticeably haggard. Lu Yuanyi was carefully taking his pulse, and the old apothecary was also waiting nearby.

"Your pulse is very healthy! My lord, is it just that you feel tightness in your chest?"

"Hmm, my chest feels tight, it's an indescribable discomfort."

"Master Yao, please take my pulse again. The pulse is steady, there's nothing wrong! If it's poisoning, there's no sign of poisoning at all!" Lu Yuanyi was starting to doubt himself.

"I just checked, and the master's pulse is fine," the old apothecary said calmly.

"This is really strange. Yan Xi also came over this morning and asked me to take his pulse. He said he was also feeling a bit unwell, but his pulse was normal, and his symptoms were somewhat different from the Lord's," Lu Yuanyi muttered.

At this moment, the eldest prince and Pei Yuqi walked in. Seeing that Lu Yuanyi and the old apothecary were both there, they immediately asked.

"Is the lord still feeling unwell?"

"I do feel a bit unwell, a little worse than yesterday," Yang Qianxun said weakly.

"The old doctor and I checked his pulse and there was nothing wrong. There was no sign of poisoning, nor did it seem like he was under the influence of a Gu curse," Lu Yuanyi explained.

"Why don't we have Chief Physician Lu come over and take a look? Where is the patient who has been treated with the medicine?" the First Prince asked.

"The prepared medicine has returned to Xiangshan, supposedly for training and punishment. It won't be back for at least half a month or a month."

"Is anyone else in the manor feeling unwell?" the eldest prince asked.

“This morning Yan Xi said he felt unwell and was restless. His symptoms were different from the Lord’s. His pulse was normal. No one else told me they felt unwell,” Lu Yuanyi said.

"If we can't find the cause, it will be very difficult to handle." The eldest prince's expression showed a hint of worry.

"I just feel a tightness in my chest, maybe it'll be fine in a couple of days. Don't worry, Zixu hasn't come back yet?"

“We ran into my wife under the porch in the front yard. Zixu accompanied her back to the courtyard and should be here soon,” Pei Yuqi said with a smile.

"Leaving him aside for now, I want to rest for the next two days to see if I can recover. I'll have to trouble you and Your Highness to handle the affairs of the manor for me."

“My lord, this is no problem. His Highness and I can handle it. My lord, you should go and rest. Getting well is the most important thing,” Pei Yuqi said.

The eldest prince nodded to indicate that there was no problem.

Meanwhile, outside, Wenren Qichi, who had just finished investigating the case, leaned against the carriage, his face pale.

Outside, Blood Shadow drove a carriage, keeping watch over Wenren Qichi from inside the carriage at night.

"Master, why is your body so weak after you got married? Your strength is not even half of what it used to be."

"How should I know? I saw a doctor who said my pulse was normal, but suddenly I could use half of my internal energy. My chest felt tight and blocked, and I felt uncomfortable all over."

"Master, we consulted many doctors yesterday, and they all said nothing was wrong. Could it be that you were poisoned? They couldn't find anything?" Ye Xing exclaimed in alarm.

Where is Sleepless?

"Sleepless, the latest message says that we are less than a hundred miles from Fengdu. It seems we have already arrived in Fengdu?" Nightwalker said uncertainly.

Sleeplessness is fine in every way, but the hardest thing to overcome is his terrible sense of direction! Even if a road he's already traveled appears in front of him the next second, he'll think it's a new road. If a message says it's less than a hundred miles, he'll think he's only traveled a hundred miles.

"Arrange for someone to pick me up and bring me back as soon as possible. Something is clearly wrong with my body. Why can't so many doctors find anything wrong? There must be a problem."

"My master wasn't feeling well yesterday, so I had Blood Shadow deliver a message. Wumian will have him arrive in Fengdu as soon as possible."

"My lord, the concubine Lu, the apothecary, and the medicine maker in the Lady's mansion are all highly skilled in medicine. You can have them examine you when you return. You are now the young master of the Su family."

"Well, let's talk about it after we go to court tomorrow and return to our residence."

. . . . . . . . . . . . .

Meanwhile, Gongyang Ruoyu and Pu An were a hundred miles away from Fengdu.

Pu An looked at Gongyang Ruoyu lying limply in the carriage and didn't know what to say.

“Gongyang, do you look like you’re suffering from motion sickness? You don’t look like you’re acclimatized! Tomorrow we’ll rush to the morning court and present the evidence that the salt merchants deliberately raised prices to His Majesty. Then you can rest for a couple of days and let Consort Lu and the apothecary examine you.”

"Yes, I agree. I was fine a few days ago, but starting yesterday, I felt unwell all over. I didn't want to move at all, and I felt dizzy. I just felt uncomfortable."

"If I didn't know your character, I would have thought you were faking it. Last night, I invited a famous local doctor who took your pulse and said sharply that there was nothing wrong with your pulse."

"Ugh... what's wrong with me? I just don't feel well."

"Pu'an, tell me, was I poisoned by those slippery salt merchants?"

"This time, His Majesty only asked us to find out the price at which the salt merchants sold salt. He did not ask us to investigate their relationships or corruption. The salt merchants did not even investigate our identities."

"What kind of poison did you use? If you used poison, I'd be safe too. I'm perfectly fine, so poisoning is almost certainly out of the question."

Gongyang Ruoyu was even more devastated after hearing what Pu An said: "If they didn't poison me, then why am I feeling so unwell? I can't explain why I feel this way. Pu An, am I going to die? I haven't even had a proper time with my wife yet! We don't even have a child."

"The Ram family was hoping that my wife would give me a child in the next pregnancy, but I got sick before I even gave birth, sob sob... Urayasu! I want to cry."
