Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

Ruan Yucheng's expression was sincere; his gratitude was beyond words.

"Young Master Ruan, you're too kind. I'm happy to be of help, and besides, Miss Ruan and I already know each other, so it's only right that I help," Song Ruozhen said.

Song Ruozhen wasn't very familiar with Ruan Yucheng or even the Prince of Yun before, but after chatting for a while, they became much closer.

Yun Wang was an interesting person by nature, and it was quite amusing to see him and Ruan Yucheng constantly undermining each other.

"Yu Cheng, didn't you say you had something to say to Ruo Zhen?" Chu Junting asked.

Upon being reminded, Ruan Yucheng quickly nodded, "Yes, I investigated some information about General Song when I returned from the border."

Upon hearing this, Song Ruozhen was overjoyed, and even Chu Yungui, who was standing to the side, showed a look of surprise.

"Since Lord Song disappeared on the battlefield, there has been no news of him. We have waited for so long without any progress. Could it be that you have found General Song's whereabouts?"

If this is indeed found, it would be great news for the Song family!

He knew Ruan Yucheng's temperament; if it were bad news, he would probably tell Song Yanzhou, not Miss Song.

"I didn't find out exactly where Lord Song was. I only heard some news at the time, and because I had a mission to complete, I couldn't go and investigate further."

According to an informant at the time, the two men were rescued near the battlefield, but they were seriously injured and had been cared for by a farmer.

I think one of the people they were talking about looks a lot like Lord Song, but because he broke his leg and two ribs, he can't move.

If it really is General Song, then this is probably why he hasn't returned yet.

Ruan Yucheng recounted the news he had heard in detail. Lord Song had always been a respectable figure, so he paid extra attention to it.

If he hadn't been being watched by others at the time, he would have gone to investigate himself.

Given the circumstances at the time, he worried that if he went, he would not only fail to save General Song, but would also implicate him. Now it seems that his choice was correct. Even though he was very careful, he was still poisoned.

General Song was already seriously injured and had not yet recovered. If he were to be implicated, the consequences would be unimaginable!

Upon hearing this, Song Ruozhen's eyes lit up slightly. "That must be my father!"

Seeing that he hadn't even revealed many details, and Song Ruozhen seemed to have already identified him as General Song, Ruan Yucheng couldn't help but feel puzzled.

"I have already sent men. If it is General Song, they will bring him back safely."

Chu Junting looked at Song Ruozhen. He understood why she was so sure; she must have already thought about it.

In fact, they had talked about this before. Although Ruozhen did not say it explicitly, he could tell from her expression that she did not believe that General Song was gone.

Therefore, as soon as he heard the news from Ruan Yucheng, he sent people to investigate. Regardless of whether it was true or not, he had to confirm it.

If it really is General Song, that would be wonderful; if not, it doesn't matter.

Song Ruozhen was slightly taken aback. She turned her head and met the man's serious eyes. She didn't expect him to care so much about her affairs, and her heart warmed.

"Thank you for your trouble, Your Highness."

"This is what I should do," Chu Junting said. This was his future father-in-law, so naturally he had to take it seriously!

However, knowing that the girl was shy, he didn't say it in front of Ruan Yucheng and the other man.

However, Song Ruozhen had already guessed what the man wanted to say from his expression, and her clear eyes were also tinged with helplessness, but not anger.

Upon seeing this, Chu Yungui and Ruan Yucheng couldn't help but exchange a glance. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, who would have believed that the man in front of them was Chu Junting, whom they had known for so many years!

This man who's fallen in love... he's practically toxic!

Song Ruozhen took Ruan Yucheng's pulse again and confirmed that his condition had completely improved. As long as he rested well, he would be able to fully recover in a while.

Ruan Yucheng was very happy and planned to go back tomorrow. He hadn't been back for so long, and even if he kept the news well hidden, his family would probably have noticed something was wrong.

Gu family.

As soon as Madam Gu returned to the mansion, Gu Qingxiu immediately summoned a doctor.

"Dr. Zhou, you said before that if Mother suddenly faints, it means the situation is getting more serious, right?"

Doctor Zhou's expression was grave. "The old lady has fainted?"

"My mother suddenly fainted while offering incense today, but fortunately someone gave her a pill, and she was able to wake up this time."

Gu Qingxiu remembered what the doctor had said before: her mother had been ill for many years, and even though she had always been careful, her condition was becoming increasingly difficult to control as she got older.

Upon hearing this, Doctor Zhou couldn't help but sigh, "Second Master, you all know about the old lady's condition. It's already quite an achievement that she's managed to stay stable all these years."

I've already used all the best remedies I could find; please forgive my limited medical skills, but I'm afraid I can't think of a better solution.

Gu Qingyan and Gu Qingzhe also rushed over, but they didn't expect to hear these words as soon as they arrived, and their hearts sank.

"Dr. Zhou, is there really no other way?" Gu Qingyan asked, unwilling to give up.

Gu Qingzhe looked even more anxious, "Tell me, are there any other doctors with even more superb medical skills? We are willing to pay any amount of money!"

However, Doctor Zhou shook his head. "If it were true, I would have said so long ago. Even the doctors from the Imperial Hospital came to examine him, but there was nothing they could do!"

Gu Qingxiu couldn't help but recall her mother's return this time, and said, "Dr. Zhou, please go in and take a look. I feel that although my mother was unconscious this time, her condition doesn't seem as serious as you said."

When he returned, he was worried that his mother's health would not hold up, but he was surprised to find that his mother was in good spirits, even better than before.

This is different from what Dr. Zhou said before, that once a person falls into a coma, it means that their condition has worsened.

"Second Master, I would never say such a thing to lie to you. To be honest, I have no idea how much I hope that the old lady's illness can be cured."

Dr. Zhou sighed helplessly and followed her into the house, only to find the old lady sitting there perfectly fine, even eating fruit.

"This……"

Dr. Zhou stood there dumbfounded, then turned to look at Gu Qingxiu in disbelief, his eyes filled with question marks.

The old lady was in excellent spirits at the moment, with a rosy complexion, and did not look ill at all!

“Dr. Zhou, I’ve already told you I’m perfectly healthy, and you don’t need to make this trip today, but they just won’t listen.”

Madam Gu was not surprised to see Doctor Zhou arrive. Although her daughters were not filial, her sons were all quite dutiful.

"Madam, let me take your pulse."

Suppressing his doubts, Doctor Zhou began to take the old lady's pulse. However, upon noticing that the pulse was much steadyer than usual, he was filled with shock.

How could this be?

The condition did not worsen after the onset of the disease; on the contrary, it improved. This is impossible!
