The Regent Princess has run away again

By the time she really woke up, it was already a few days later.

Xue Zhiyu rubbed her head and looked at the thatch above her head. Before she had time to look around, she heard a clear voice.

"You are finally awake. I have made some medicine for you to drink."

The boy carefully brought the medicine over, picked up the spoon, blew on it, and handed it to her mouth, motioning her to open her mouth.

Xue Zhiyu had no choice but to swallow all the questions in her mind for the time being. Her originally rosy face turned extremely pale at this moment. She opened her mouth slightly and drank the medicine.

After drinking the medicine in the bowl, the boy stood up and prepared to leave when he felt his sleeve being gently tugged.

"Did you save me?"

"It wasn't me, it was the master who saved you."

Xue Zhiyu frowned and looked around. It was a very simple environment. The room was filled with a strong smell of herbs, as if she was in a modern pharmacy.

"Who is your master?"

When the boy mentioned this, he puffed out his chest with pride, "My master is a famous first-class doctor. You are lucky. Usually, my master rarely saves people. Moreover, my master also cured the poison in your body."

It was actually the number one miracle doctor who saved her. Thinking of this, Xue Zhiyu quickly perked up, her eyes full of nervousness, "Excuse me, is the miracle doctor here? I want to thank him in person."

"Master has gone to collect herbs. He should be back soon."

Xue Zhiyu then raised her hand that was pulling the boy's sleeve, and continued as if she had thought of something, "How many days have I been unconscious?"

The young man put the medicine bowl on the table, thought carefully and said, "It's been two days. I still remember when the master brought you back, your face was as pale as before. I won't talk to you anymore. You should rest for a while. I have to go dry the herbs while the weather is good, otherwise it will be bad if the weather changes."

Watching the young man walk out of the door, Xue Zhiyu lowered her head and smiled self-deprecatingly. She didn't expect that meeting the number one genius doctor would be like this. She didn't know how her mother was doing. She wondered if she was worried. Xiaoqiu must be in a state of panic.

After thinking about it for a while, he seemed to have thought of something. He lifted the quilt and saw that he was wearing new clothes. His face turned red to his ears.

"I asked the maid to help you change into new clothes."

An indifferent voice came from outside. Xue Zhiyu's hands that were trying to lift the quilt froze. She suddenly felt socially dead. She smiled awkwardly and was about to say something, but when she saw the person coming, her eyes widened.

"You, you, you... aren't you Mu Xingchen?"

The man who came was the man she met at Yuling Mountain. He was still dressed in white, with an indifferent face that seemed to have no worldly desires. He came over and saw Xue Zhiyu staring at him without blinking. He frowned and interrupted, "Miss Xue San, is your eye cramp?"

"So is your name Mu Xingchen or Mu Ti?"

"It's just a title. It's the same whether it's Mu Xingchen or Mu Ti."

For some reason, Xue Zhiyu caught a glimpse of strange emotions in his eyes that were as deep as an ancient well. She pursed her lips and hesitated for a while before asking, "Should I call you Mu Xingchen or Mu Ti? You can't let me guess correctly before calling you that."

Mu Xingchen didn't expect that she would suddenly say this during her silence. He was a little amused. Under her puzzled gaze, he restrained himself a little and said, "Mu Xingchen is my real name, but you can call me whichever one is more convenient."

Xue Zhiyu nodded, as if she thought about the two days she was unconscious and how her mother must have been very worried. She didn't care about anything else and just lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

"Where are you going? Are you feeling better now?"

"I still have to thank the miracle doctor for his care. I heard from your apprentice that you helped me get rid of the poison. I am really grateful. I feel like I owe you a favor again," Xue Zhiyu sighed helplessly, feeling a little guilty when she thought about the favor she had not yet repaid last time.

"Then just stay here for a few days to help me organize the medicinal herbs," Mu Xingchen didn't hesitate to say so. After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked out quickly without giving her a chance to speak.

"Hey, this feels a little weird. I haven't had time to ask any questions yet. I'm not eating anyone if you walk that fast."

The breeze from the mountain blew gently, driving away the summer heat, but for those who are in good health, they can't resist the breeze and have to cover themselves with the quilt again.

But because she had been lying down for too long, Xue Zhiyu couldn't lie down anymore. She put on her coat, lifted the quilt, put on the shoes beside the bed, and planned to go and help.

Before she reached the door, she heard the voice of the young man who had just come in to feed her medicine.

"Master, you really won't tell her?"

Next to the winnowing basket where medicinal herbs were drying, the young man glanced at the toilet, pursed his lips and couldn't help but ask. Now the news was spreading like wildfire outside, and if he didn't come out to clarify, it would probably spread even more widely.

Xue Zhiyu paused and stopped moving forward. Her intuition told her that something big must have happened, and it was about her.

Mu Xingchen also looked over there without saying anything.

The young man saw that although the master didn't say anything, he knew that the master actually cared about him, so he continued, "Even if we don't say it, she will know it sooner or later, and then it will be even more difficult to explain."

"Mingzhi, you talk too much today," Mu Xingchen frowned, turned around and walked out the door.

Mingzhi lowered his head, his eyes full of confusion, but he didn't say anything else.

Xue Zhiyu, who was in the room, clenched her fists under her sleeves, and without caring about anything else, she almost ran out of the room. Before Ming Zhi could react, she pulled her sleeve and said anxiously, "Can you take me out? I want to go home and see what's going on. I will come back to help your master after the problem is solved. Is that okay?"

Her beautiful long hair was draped behind her head, her face was flushed with anxiety, her beautiful peach blossom eyes were full of mist, and her white clothes made her look even more fragile and pitiful.

Mingzhi couldn't help but waver, but thinking of the rumors outside, not to mention a woman, even he felt that it was very vicious! He had to forcefully look away and not look at her, "You should go back and rest, the master will be angry if he knows."

"Don't worry, I will fix it quickly. Can you please take me out?"

Mingzhi bit his lower lip and struggled at first, but when he saw her expression, he thought that she would know it sooner or later anyway, so he might as well take her to face it now.

"Okay, I'll take you there."

When Xue Zhiyu heard this, she quickly walked into the room, picked up a hairpin and casually tied her hair up.

Mingzhi took her down the mountain through twists and turns and hired a carriage to go to Xue's house.

When they arrived at Xue's house, Mingzhi was not convenient to go in, so he waited for her outside the door. When Xue Zhiyu got off the carriage, she saw that Xue's house was surrounded by people.

"Have you heard that the third young lady's old lover came to visit?"

"Didn't Miss San fall into the water? Why did her old lover come to visit her?"

"You don't know this. Miss San and her old lover were caught doing something like that. They couldn't bear the humiliation and jumped into the water."

"Humph, she really deserved to die. Poor young lady was so frightened that she fell ill as soon as she came back."

Xue Zhiyu overheard these people's conversation and a hint of sarcasm flashed in her eyes. Humph, this elder sister doesn't forget to create her own image. How can she, as her younger sister, not cooperate with her performance? She squeezed through the crowd and walked in.

The guard standing at the door saw the person coming, and although he was very disdainful, he still stepped forward and bowed, "Miss Third, you are back."

As soon as the voice of "Third Miss" came out, the crowd became excited again. No one knew who took the lead and threw some vegetable heads over, hurling them fiercely at Xue Zhiyu.

The guards tried to cover it up perfunctorily, but when they saw more and more people throwing the trash, they stood aside and watched the show.

As the crowd became more excited, not only carrots but also rotten eggs were thrown over.

The originally white clothes were now extremely dirty. When Xue Zhiyu gritted her teeth and prepared to go in, a burly man ran out of the mansion and stood in front of her. However, the next sentence made her feel like she was in an ice cellar.

"Everyone, Yu'er and I have long been committed to each other. What happened on the boat was just a result of my emotional control. Now that she has returned safely, I will definitely marry her," he said, and then he pulled Xue Zhiyu into the Xue Mansion.

At this point, the atmosphere became even more tense among the people who came to watch the fun. Even after they had left, they continued to throw things and curse.

After entering Xue's house, the man did not give Xue Zhiyu a chance to react and took her straight to the front hall.

Before she reached the front hall, she heard Xue Yulu's sarcastic voice. Although Xue Zhiyu had not yet recovered from the shock, her mind became a little clearer after hearing Xue Yulu's voice. She had to say that her elder sister was really ruthless. If her patience was a little worse, she might have hit her head and died at the door of the mansion just now.

As soon as she arrived at the front hall, Xiaoqiu, who was standing next to Aunt Zhou and crying, heard footsteps and thought it was the servant again. When she looked up and saw the disheveled woman, tears suddenly burst out of her eyes and she ran over and hugged Xue Zhiyu.

“Miss, you finally showed up. I thought you were going to wu ...

Aunt Zhou also saw Xue Zhiyu and walked over, holding back her tears, but her voice was trembling, "Zhiyu... I'm glad you're back. Go change your clothes quickly. You've suffered..."

Xue Zhiyu felt distressed when she saw that Aunt Zhou had lost weight visibly. She nodded and said helplessly to the little girl who was crying while hugging herself, "Xiao Qiu, please let go. I'm so dirty."

When Xiaoqiu heard this, she quickly let go of her, and without caring about the master-servant relationship, she pulled her out quickly.

........

After a long while, Xue Zhiyu dressed up again and walked in slowly again. This time she saw clearly the man who pulled her in, and her face was immediately covered with frost. If eyes could kill, he would have died several times.

The man looked away feeling slightly guilty, but when he thought of the benefits behind this, he took out the cloth torn off on the boat from his chest and looked at Prime Minister Xue, whose face couldn't be any darker.

"Mr. Prime Minister, Yu'er and I are truly in love with each other, please help us to be together!"

"Humph, you have a good mouth. It's a pity that you don't go and tell stories. Your ability to confuse right and wrong is really amazing. Why don't you tell me how I can make you and I fall in love with each other, so that I, the person involved, can also hear what's going on."

Xue Zhiyu walked over slowly, glanced at the man next to her, walked straight to Aunt Zhou, and sat down under her worried gaze.

The man didn't expect her to ask this. He was stunned for a moment, but soon he reacted and said with a bitter smile, "Yu'er, you and I were so close on the boat that day, and you even said that you would elope with me even if everyone opposed it. How could you forget it?!"

"I really can't forget it. Why didn't you tell me that you sneaked into my room and wanted to do something indecent to me? I don't know you at all, and I didn't know the room I stayed in until I got on board. I suspect you sneaked on board."

Xue Zhiyu was paying attention to the man's expression as she spoke, but he didn't show any fear at all. Instead, he looked indignant.

"Yu'er, it was you who made an appointment with me. You also said you would give me a gift and asked me to come to your room. Didn't you tell me that in the note you gave me?" the man said, and then he took out a small note with the woman's beautiful handwriting on it.

"You're lying! I was sitting the whole time on the boat, how could I pass you a note? And I have a habit of writing..."

Xue Zhiyu walked over and pointed at his little piece of paper, then continued, "I subconsciously put a dot every time I finish writing a word, but your paper doesn't have these dots. After all, I am also a princess personally appointed by His Majesty, and not just anyone can come and pick on me. Do you understand?"

She narrowed her eyes, and her originally beautiful peach blossom eyes stared at the man like a poisonous snake, making people shudder, but the chill quickly disappeared and her face returned to its full smile.

The man was frightened and stunned. The look in his eyes was so terrifying, as if he was going to be eaten the next moment. Just when he was still in shock, Xue Zhiyu whispered, "It's too much of a joke for you to try to scam me with just a piece of rag. I hope you can still be so brave later," and then turned around and sat back in her seat.

The man swallowed and his hands began to shake uncontrollably, as if he remembered that he had one last trick up his sleeve. He took the bag next to him and opened it. It was a bed sheet covered with disgraceful marks.

"Yu'er, you forced me to do this! I wanted to keep it as a souvenir, but you actually threatened me! I can only let you see the truth!"

All the women present turned their heads away with red faces. Xue Yulu became even more excited when she saw this. She never thought that this bitch would have such a day. She deserved it!

Xue Zhiyu hadn't expected that the bag would be something like this. She felt angry and humiliated.

Seeing that no one was talking, the man thought that the matter was about to be settled and became even more excited. When he was about to say something, an indifferent voice interrupted him.

"I don't think so."
