After the arranged marriage, I pampered the sickly regent.

Unless the sixth princess was delayed by something, as for Su Yan, she was mentioned in the book. She was the legitimate daughter of the Minister's family and had been studying under the divine physician of Medicine King Valley because of her talent in medicine.

It's interesting that he's a doctor himself, just like everyone else.

However, after the regent left, the book didn't learn much about this person, and that was all that was recorded.

If given the chance, she would really like to see it for herself.

Just as Ye Qingwu was about to ask the guard Zhan Sijing about his whereabouts, she saw a figure approaching her as soon as she stepped out of the house.

"Is the Princess Consort looking for me?"

In front of Ye Qingwu, Zhan Sijing's face showed less of the aloofness he displayed in front of outsiders.

"Wasn't the prince supposed to rest and recuperate? Why is he up?"

Ye Qingwu stepped forward and noticed that Zhan Sijing's face was somewhat pale, which made her a little worried.

Although the arranged marriage was changed due to her transmigration into the book and Ye Qingzhu's rebirth.

However, the Cold Shadow Poison in Zhan Sijing's body remained a hidden danger, and she was unsure whether the sudden death would be forced upon her.

With only three days left in the seven-day period, she needs to be even more careful during this time.

If Zhan Sijing were to have an accident, I'm afraid I wouldn't even have time to treat him before I'd be buried with him, which would really fulfill Ye Qingzhu's wish.

Thinking of this, Ye Qingwu took Zhan Sijing's hand, and the coldness of his fingertips made her frown slightly.

"How can it be so cold?"

As she spoke, she touched Zhan Sijing's pulse again, her gaze towards the man before her slightly helpless.

"Your Highness, it seems I really cannot leave your side for even a moment."

She had only been gone for two hours, yet Zhan Sijing's pulse had weakened further, no wonder he looked pale.

"It's cold outside, let's go inside."

Ye Qingwu pulled him towards the house. In her eyes, Zhan Sijing was like a fragile porcelain doll, who could be in danger at any moment.

Feeling the warmth of her hand, Zhan Sijing looked at the woman pulling him away, and a warm feeling swept through his body.

"what happened?"

Seeing that Zhan Sijing had been staring at her ever since he entered the room, Ye Qingwu was a little puzzled.

"No."

"I've heard about the Sixth Princess, but you don't need to worry about it. If you're unhappy, you can..."

Ye Qingwu knew immediately that Leng Feng had told Zhan Sijing what had happened.

“I didn’t care, Your Highness. I said I would cure the illness. Nothing else matters.”

"how about you?"

Zhan Sijing looked at her, feeling somewhat uneasy for some reason.

"Me?" Ye Qingwu was taken aback. "Could Your Highness please be more specific?"

"What I mean is, besides healing, is there anything else you desire?"

She hadn't really thought about that, and it was clearly unlikely that she would be able to go back in time.

If that's true, then I'll just survive in this book.

She absolutely could not tell Zhan Sijing these things, but she noticed that his gaze remained fixed on her, as if waiting for her answer.

Ye Qingwu smiled. "Your Highness, this is enough for me right now."

"Is that all..."

Zhan Sijing seemed touched by her words. Yes, what could his frail body possibly have left besides the present...?

Even if I cannot cure you, I will protect you.

Zhan Sijing said earnestly to Ye Qingwu.

"Your Highness, please don't say such discouraging things. With me here, I will never let such a thing happen."

Her promises were never just empty words.

And the other side.

"You said you wanted to bring your mother here to live permanently?"

Ye Qingzhu suddenly stood up and angrily said to Jiang Wenjin, "No, I don't agree to this!"

This courtyard is already dilapidated enough. If she hadn't known that Jiang Wenjin would become the Grand Secretary in the future, she would never have married such a person and lived such a poor life.

Now another person is coming, and she knows without even thinking what kind of person they are. She doesn't want to be around an old woman every day.

“My wife, my father passed away early. If it weren’t for my mother’s hard work in raising me, I wouldn’t be where I am today. Why can’t you be more understanding of me?”

Jiang Wenjin was clearly dissatisfied with Ye Qingzhu's refusal. In his mind, it was not a wife's duty to share her husband's burdens and be filial to her parents-in-law.

He hadn't even asked Ye Qingzhu to do anything for him; he had only brought his mother over, and yet things had turned out this way.

Ye Qingzhu didn't care what Jiang Wenjin said. "I said no, and that's final. Jiang Wenjin, if you insist on doing this, I'll go back to the Duke's Mansion tomorrow."

Hearing her say that, Jiang Wenjin was also extremely annoyed. "Wife, I can agree to anything else, but not this one."

"Fine!" Ye Qingzhu slammed her hand on the table in anger and turned to pack her bags.

When Jiang Wen saw that Ye Qingzhu was serious and that it was already dark outside, his anger vanished instantly.

"Wife, it's already dark. Why are you packing your things at this hour?"

"Of course, we'll return to the Duke's mansion!"

Ye Qingzhu said angrily, and Jiang Wenjin's attitude immediately softened upon hearing this.

He knew very well what would happen if Ye Qingzhu returned to the Duke's mansion at this time. He still needed his father-in-law's support and couldn't afford to offend him now.

Seeing Ye Qingzhu's stubbornness, Jiang Wen sighed.

“My wife, then I will not bring Mother here for now. It is really inappropriate for you to go back at this time.”

"Your father-in-law and mother-in-law will be worried if they see you like this."

"Good to know." Ye Qingzhu was smug. Even though she knew Jiang Wenjin would achieve great things in the future, she still wanted him to know that he was not someone to be trifled with.

She would never suffer with him.

The next day, while Jiang Wenjin went to the school, Ye Qingzhu still took the package back to the Duke's mansion.

When Su saw Ye Qingzhu return, she was shocked. "Qingzhu, why are you back? And what's with all these packages?"

"Has Jiang Wenjin treated you badly? That shouldn't be the case..."

Although she looked down on Jiang Wenjin's status as a poor scholar, he was indeed a handsome man with good manners.

“It has nothing to do with him.” Ye Qingzhu threw herself into Su’s arms.

"Mother, I just miss you, isn't that enough?"

"Jiang Wenjin's family is too poor, I can't get used to living there."

Seeing that this was the reason, Madam Su breathed a sigh of relief. "Qingzhu, I have to say something to you. Now that you're married, you belong to your husband's family. You can't come back so often, or people will gossip about you."

"Who dares to gossip?" Ye Qingzhu snorted coldly, clearly not taking these words to heart.

"Mother, don't I still have you?"

Ye Qingzhu tried to change the subject, saying, "When I came here, I saw several carriages parked there. Could it be that someone has arrived?"

"It's your second brother."

"What second brother? He's not Mother's son, so he has nothing to do with me." Ye Qingzhu murmured, then suddenly had an idea.
